samsung mesmerize

How often should you update your PRL?

I have a Samsung Mesmerize (US Cellular) running Gingerbread. I use Pandora a lot. In the past I had no trouble with it, but something I installed (maybe Soundhound or a Gin Rummy game) has slowed it way down, like over a minute to load a song when I start up or hit "next". Some backstory: A...

Well, I made the switch today from my Mesmerize to the Motorola Electrify. So far, an amazingly fast phone. I have not had a chance to explore all of its capabilities yet, but so far, so good. My wife gets the Mes, which will be a very nice upgrade from her Acclaim. So, I will not be...

I have a Samsung Mermerize through US Cellular. I am going to be traveling to Vietnam and Hong Kong soon, and was told the cell phone would not work there, but I could get emails and otherwise access data. I also had the impression I should get a special data plan so I would not be charged huge...

I was just curious about if my class 2 micro sd card is to slow to handle the data of a hd video recording because most of the time the audio and video in unsynced and I would think that is because the card cant keep up with the write speeds and the sd card is pretty full of stuff also its 16...

I hadn't used my phone for a couple hours when while driving, my Mesmerize began playing one of my songs I had stored on it. I haven't played any of the songs in 2 or 3 days. Anyone know what's up with that?

Not sure if there is one already, but I think there should be a perma-thread for screenshots. People are always customizing their phones to look cooler and cooler so I thought why not make a whole thread for them? Anywho, here is my recent creation using the following apps: Just so you know...

How do you get a screenshot picture from the stock photo gallery into a phandroid post?

I got this from the speed test: I would post a screen capture of my vellamo score, but the way you screen capture is dumb. it keeps backing out when i hit the back button. whoevers bright idea it was to use the back button as a screen capture button should be shot. my vellamo score is 601

Ive mentioned the the tiniest bit in another thread, but wanted to bring it to attention. Since the 2.3 update, does anyone have scrolling issues there the browser does not scroll smoothly in stock browser? Instead, it scrolls in segments. goes so far ans stops. You used to be able to swipe...

When using this app the blue arrow used to point towards the top of the map/actual direction that you were going. Somehow the orientation changed in the last few days. Anyone know why? I will definitely miss this feature.

I updated to Gingerbread today but I cannot get my default calendar view to display the whole month view. I have the default view set to Month. Has anyone else experienced this or have a solution that will help me?

Good morning. I've been working on this for the past 2 hours and have had no luck so far, so I thought I'd ask my fellow Android enthusiasts. I am trying to get my work email on my phone using the default email app if possible. I have tried this on TouchDown and K-9, also. My work uses...

To the point- my phone continues to take screen shots all by itself. It tends to happen after stock SMS application, and freezes up til screen timeout. This is my third and final replacement phone. If I want I can get another phone replacement, but what is comparable to our galaxy s?

Even since updating to gingerbread im having trouble getting my gmail alerts. Often I check my gmail and at the top of the gmail page it says 1 new message, refreshes itself and then the new message shows up. I use to always get my gmail message alerts as soon as they arrived. I checked my...

The GPS icon is constantly flashing. Something afoot with the gps system?

Not sure if this is an issue for other Gingerbread users, but today I received a text message that was past the standard SMS character limit so it was sent as a multimedia message (MMS). Prior to Gingerbread, I would be able to tap on the extended message and view it in a multimedia window. Now...

I am posting this in the Root forum because it requires CWM to wipe battery stats and I figured that people that aren't even interested in rooting their phone probably don't have Odin to install a custom recovery. I just conditioned my battery the correct way a couple of days ago after one of...

Since I updated to Gingerbread, the following bugs have been driving me nuts . . . 1 - The navigation lights come on every time you touch the screen, even inside an app. The one that bugs me most is my ebook app. When I'm reading at night, I don't want the navigation lights to come on every...

I am having issues opening my messaging and through some research I believe that a message is corrupt and keeping my messenger from opening. Where are they stored so I can delete them off my phone? I am rooted so I have access, just don't know where to look
