I was about to take a photo when I noticed my screen had gone sort of weird, like the colours were distorting. I looked closer and the screen became more and more wacky, a bit like a rainbow or something. I pressed the home key and everything returned to normal. It's very hard to describe, but...

Worried about battery drain. Also, what is SDS and should I be worried? Apparently this affected lots of Note 2's?

Hi. My phone downloaded 4.1.2 but I do not want to install it because all my android update experiences have been terrible and made my phones worse, not better. Is there any way to delete tge downloaded file? Im also worried because the download was interrupted about three times during the...

Ever since ICS this phone has been a disaster. I never used to have any problems, but almost straight after the update the phone would randomly crash and, upon restarting, the battery indicator would state that the battery was almost empty (even if the phone had previously had 100% charge). If I...

Kies is totally broken. I tried to update my phone to ICS via Kies after it said an update was available, but to no avail. I clicked update and it downloaded the required files. The it said something about preparing for update. Then it started trying to download more files, but after 3 hours...

Last month I noticed by phone had used nearly 300megs in one day. I only have 500 in total so this was very annoying. Anyway... I have since installed a traffic monitoring app that monitors usage by app. Today I noticed my phone had started to get hot in my pocket and I had a look. AP Mobile...

Okay... hopefully a one off, but I was browsing the internet today and my phone reset itself. First time this has happened in a month and a bit, and hopefully the last. Anyone else ever had this?

Bit of context, I came from an HTC Desire which had a terrible battery life. Even after I got used to it, I still had to be a bit careful. Getting a SGS2 I was a bit worried as I had heard all the horror stories. But really, this battery seems to last forever, even under quite heavy use...

Im running android 2.3.3 on quite an old firmware... but my phone seems perfect. never crashes or lags and so far ive been really pleased. what are the benefits of upgrading?

I have tried using the OTA option like I used to on my Desire. No luck. I have tried using Kies, but there is no option to check or update firmware. I am still running Android version 2.3.3. I understand there is a newer version but seemingly no way to upgrade? Phone is unlocked and...

Okay, the other day I noticed that my phone was constantly downloading data via 3g, even though there was apparently nothing running. I kept an eye on it for about an hour, and it was constantly chewing through data. I turned it off and back on, and everything returned to normal. I can see...

Try this: Fill up the screen with solid black. You can use the screen test menu (*#0*#) if you can't be bothered to find a totally black image. Make sure the whole screen is black, with not even the notification bar showing. Then go into a totally pitch dark room. Look at the screen for about...

Almost every electronic product I have ever bought has had at least one dead pixel. My first digital camera - 1 stuck pixel (replaced) My iPod – 1 Dead pixel (replaced) My Archos Media Player – 2 stuck pixels (couldn't be bothered to replace) My PSP – 2 dead pixels (replaced)...

I really want to buy this phone but there seems to be so many people experiencing overheating and WiFi problems. Does anyone have no issues?
