thanks for your extensive and quick reply.. (y)(y) could well be a problem with hotmail.co.uk address. I'll check out your pointers. If it were me I'd ditch hotmail and go to something else.. it is usually slow in action.. receiving or sending whatever computer she uses.. but you know wht it's...

Don't know where else to post this.. apologies My wife has a hotmail account.. it is ok to use on her Windows pc using the built into Windows 10 Outlook app (not the outlook program from Office).. not great but useable. However when using the outlook app (free) on her Android phone (or even...

Hi I'm surely not the only one that has seen a recent TV consumer program where a user had a massive bill resulting from use of emoticons in text messages that suddenly become chargeable MMS. I followed a suggestion to send as unicode but I still got charged for an MMS message.. Any clues on...

Hi I have had a Jabra (BT150) Bluetooth ear headset for making calls for some years.. just used it on the 'next' phone i bought. It worked on my last three phones (still pairs with the last one.. Sony) but wont be found or recognized when scanning for it by my Galaxy S4. The Galaxy pairs with...

Hi all I had this feature from new. you could swipe text instead of tapping the words in. I had to do a factory reset recently and unlocked it at the same time.. now i can't find out how to enable this useful feature that was on it. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.. perhaps I'm...

I see many places doing 7" etc but few doing 8 and no one specifically for the ICOO. I understand it is a badged MID tablet. The protectors fr other 8" models are either too large and need trimming (something i don't feel like doing) or only cover the display screen in the middle of the...

Hi all I have a Sony Experia NeoV and ICOO 8" tablet with Jellybean on it. I have used my phone with PDA Net on PC/laptop ok Can't get it to work with my Tablet though.. The Tablet message says it can't detect internet on the phone. I have also tried the WiFi hotspot function on the...

Hi everyone.. I have been using the 2.1 update for nearly a year with great success... now a strange thing just started hapening. my calendar displays the green appointment marks on the appropriate days but there are no details when i open them.. they are on the correct days as in google...

I only heard about it recently but dismissed it as I only had Android 1.5 and apparently it needs 2.1 I have a Tom Tom but it is not always in the car with me. I take it in from the car to charge it and update maps then forget to take it with me .... :( Curious.. I'm not expecting the...
