Just a quick question really but has anyone had problems with words missing from their dictionary since the update? My dictionary is set to English UK and very simple words like 'as' and 'for' and a few others are missing since the update. So I thought I'd add the words but they don't save...

Hi all, tried to sync all my phone contacts to Gmail on my laptop but not getting there. I've read many threads on this forum and across the web but there doesn't appear to be a definitive solution? Basically I can export my contacts off my SIM card to the SD card, and then import them to my...

Just had another update, after the 2.2 of a few weeks ago. Came up in the notifications bar and said it improves media playback. Downloaded and installed all ok except it wiped every single app/widget off my screens, absolutely everything. Switched off and on and all back to normal but have to...

Hi, can someone please explain an easy way to sync all my phone/sim contacts to my gmail account? I don't need to sync Facebook or anything like that, just my People to my gmail email account so I've always got them as a back up. Many thanks.

Am I the only one whose noticed you can easily make a call with NO signal bars showing, yet a text won't send? On my old 2G only phone I usually had full signal, if it ever dropped to say 1 bar I'd get a real robotic sounding conversation. With the 2G/3G Wildfire my signal goes up and down...

Anyone else noticed their mp3's tracks have gone a bit messed up since 2.2 update? Got 1000ish tracks on my 8gb card, all was ok pre-2.2, now there's about 100 tracks in a newly formed artist named Unknown. They've just moved from their previously correctly named artist albums into Unknown...

Probably a stupid question but to exit the web browser I just hit the back button repeatedly until I get back to my home screen, and so now my back button is already looking worn. Any other obvious way of exiting that I've totally missed? Cheers.

Now that we got 2.2 is it a good idea to move apps off the phone on to the SD card? Will that speed up the phone? Thanks.

Just my imagination or is the battery lasting longer since 2.2 update? And when you go to About Phone - Battery it now shows partial bar usage not just fulll bar usage?

Updated to 2.2 and all went fine. Can still connect to the internet over wi-fi but not over mobile network. Anyone know what the problem might be and how to solve it? Thanks. EDIT: It has wiped my APN settings, put them back in and all ok again.

Hi guys, 1. All my photos are shown in Gallery from oldest to newest so I have to scroll through hundreds to get to the most recent, doesn't seem logical but can't find a way round it. They're all on the SD card and no matter how I set them up I can't get them to be most recent up top. Any...

Hi, on my old Samsung phone I had the backlight set to turn off after 30 seconds but this didn't lock the screen. With the Wildfire however with the backlight set to turn off after 30 seconds this also locks the screen. Is there a way to set it so the light goes off without locking the screen...

One other question. GSMarena quote the following battery life for the Wildfire - "480 hours of stand-by or 7 hours and 20 minutes of talk time in 2G networks, and 690 hours and 8 hours in 3G mode" I always thought 3G was more power-hungry than 2G?

Hey all, my first Wildfire didn't last more than 2 days due to the operator (Tesco Mobile) unable to get a signal for some reason. So just got another Wildfire with another network and would like to get round to setting it all up properly, so advice needed please... I would like to be able to...

Hi, quick word of advice needed please. If I download some apps and then afterwards put a different networks sim card in will the apps still be there? Thanks.

Hi, I'm in the UK on Tesco (O2) network and have had my Wildfire running for a week. People are telling me it takes 10-15 to be able to get through to me, and similarly I can't make outgoing calls to mobiles or landlines for periods of time, although strangely I can call voicemail (905) and...

Hello folks, loving the Wildfire, sussed out 3G, WiFi etc, man its so fast on the web. Also getting good battery life now that I only switch on Wifi etc when I need it, not leave it on all the time. One thing though, I can't find anything on the phone will show me basic info like number of call...

Hi guys, sorry if posting lots of questions but I'm new to smartphones :confused:. Is this right...? 3G uses your inclusive data allowance, Wifi is free (at home/free hotspots etc). 3G seems very slow at home in South London, on Tesco network which is effectivley O2, I thought it was meant...

Hi all, just added music/photos/videos to my 8gb microSD via an adaptor into my laptop. Sorted so that most recent photos are top but when I insert into the Wildfire it shows oldest photo first. Put the card back in the laptop and reversed the sort, put it back in the Wildfire but made no...

Hi all, I'd like to start getting my music and pictures etc on my Wildfire. I've got an 8gb micrso-SD card. Question is how does the phone read the card? Do I have to set up folders on the card such as Music, Photos, Videos etc or do I just pile all my files on the card and the phone then sorts...

Okay so I've only had it a couple of hours but already it looks to be a great little handset, don't see anything wrong with the screen at all, people on other forums moan about the resolution but it looks great to me. I'm on software version 2.1-update1 is this the most up to date? If not and...

Hey everyone, I'm new here, getting my Wildfire delivered next week and can't wait. A few quick questions in the meantime if that's ok - 1. Task-killer yes or no? Heard good and bad things about it so I'm unsure 2. Can I turn off 3G as and when to conserve battery power? 3. Other than...
