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...

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...

this probably a real basic question to the regulars here.. but Is rooting necessary before updating the OS (2.1 in this instance) I did 'some' research and found that rooting is the entry to aking more control of the handset.. but not experienced enough to know the answer to this question...

I have a USB charger.. it holds a couple of AA batteries. Used it with a few gadgets I have 'thought'? lets charge the Samsung with it.. bad idea! It did show the Galaxy charging.. but then I noticed a problem later on that day.. my music would only play with a stutter. battery seemed fully...
