    Just bought Samsung A5 and need a tip please.

    I have recently replaced an ageing iPhone with a samsung A5 and find it equally if not better for my use. The contacts book is good, but I would like to use an app Eyecon. This displays ID photos quite large, which means when using in daylight, I can recognise the person rather that change...

    Save my battery a bit please.

    I would like someone to advise me how to use less battery please. Yes, it's an odd question but there's a method in my madness. I'm about to start (hopefully) using a mifi for rail journeys that could take up to five hours. If the mifi is a success, I might try to use my galaxy tab 3 longer than...

    My MG638 has numerous apps

    My MG638 has numerous apps which I know for sure I won't use, dare I say it Angry Birds for one. If I delete any I don't need, will it make the tablet perform better?

    Opening choice on MG638

    Thanks for you welcome. My first question is this, and don't laugh, as it's all basic stuff I suppose. After I've turned on the power to my MG638 and seen the WonderMedia logo, I am presented with a screen giving three options following "Complete action using:-...

    Newbie in Dorset, with cheapie tablet.

    I have just entered the world of Android with my cheapie version of a tablet, ie MG638. I've only had it a couple of days and may well be asking a few basic questions. I'm in the UK, Dorset to be precise. Once I've chilled out on the promenade I'll be back to start asking and learning.
