How would you rate the Samsung Transform. Do you recommend a different sprint phone?

Q. Can is do video chat?
How is the video chat?
Does it ever freeze?
On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate it?
Have you had any problems with it?
Would you recommend a different Spring Android phone instead?
Is the GPS good?

A. The phone is not so great. As a matter of fact, Sprint in general is not so great. The front facing camera is almost useless. The only video chat app that somewhat works is Tango. There is a huge lag time w/ video and you cannot hear because there's a loud electronic feedback sound that doesn't stop. Yes it freezes. There's a problem where sometimes the phone is unresponsive to touch (can't answer phone calls, or do anything). The GPS/Navigation has been pretty good so far. Sprint had promised an Android 2.2 update before the end of 2010...the update is still not available. Froyo may solve some of the problems us Transform owners are experiencing. Seems like the EVO 4g is the best phone sprint has going, but you have to pay an extra $10/ month to have a 4g phone whether or not you can get 4g service.


Is there a good free Office Communicator App for Android?
Q. I have an iPhone 4 and I found an app called "Fuze Messenger" that works perfectly for Office Communicator and is free. However, my boss downloaded a couple of different apps for his Android phone (Dell Streak) and they didn't work.

Does anyone know of a good free or cheap (preferably free) app that will let him connect to Office Communicator on his Android phone?

A. Try office talk, it works great for me.

Does android market ever become as good as app store?

Q. Seeing the appstore is older there are much more apps and they're also better and more fun.. do you think android phones will ever have a market as good as the app store?

A. android phones have acquired 30% of the market but nowhere close to iphone. Iphone has a first movers advantage and the device is extremely user friendly. This one big advantage eclipses all the negatives and that's what Mr. Steve goes by. secondly, the iphones are coming to verizon in jan, 2011. That means the droid phones will be in dust again. A clever move by apple.


How could the iPhone 5 be better than the HTC Sensation or Samsung Galaxy 2?
Q. With all these amazing Android phones, why are people still so crazy about the latest and greatest iPhone? It is not a 4G phone. You can't replace the battery on those things, so if they fail then so does the phone. You cannot do nearly as much customization as you can on Android phones. HTC phones have such amazing quality, IMHO. Do people like iPhones just because they're supposedly "trendy?"

Or are they really spectacular and I'm totally missing their Wow factor?

A. well you know apple the innovators.....

once someone passes them they panic and sue
http://www.dailytech.com/Google+ExCEO+Apple+Doesnt+Innovate+They+Sue/article22190.htm
The funny thing is that apple can�t sue for being the first touchscreen or tablet, because they weren�t,(Nokia fist touch screen, �archos� first tablet) so instead they sue for much more relevant things like, �the rounded icon corners� and �having a flat screen� or �the square shape of the phone���..

To top it all, if you�ve seen apples 2011 presentation, they blatantly copied over five "new" features that were previously on android.
http://androidandme.com/2011/06/news/five-features-in-ios-5-that-show-how-apple-is-now-playing-catch-up-to-google/
http://www.droid-life.com/2011/06/06/apple-introduces-ios5-with-notifications-ota-updates-and-tabbed-browsing-android-users-giggle-at-their-late-arrival/
1. Notification bar
2. Twitter integration
3. No need to connect to PC to sync
4. Launch apps from lock screen
5. Tabbed browsing

And not only are they copies, but apple didn�t even bother to improve, or change some of them in any way- some even have LESS features than their android counter parts, it�s basically a cheap imitation with the ever-popular iphone skin.
According to Steve jobs, these "revolutionary" new technologies that android users had since 2007 will be available on IOS5, and it would not surprise me to see some more android features from 2008 on IOS6.But the truly sad part is that due to apples marketing, in a few months, apple lovers will really think that apple invented those features and call android the copycats�yet again.

What is the most cost effective Android phone available in Singapore ?

Q. I am already using an e71 and am very happy with it. However I want to buy an Android phone *only* for the Android market/apps/games. So which phone should I go for, considering that Price is an important factor for my decision. It would be wonderful is Multi Touch was possible. My budget is between 300-500 S$

A. I'd recommend the HTC wildfire. Good value, plus it has all the features of a proper size Android phone.


Can I use a phone from another provider on the Virgin Mobile USA network?
Q. Virgin Mobile doesn't have any Android phones. I want to get something like the HTC Hero (normally used on Sprint) and use that phone on Virgin Mobile since VM has cheaper plans. Also, any info you can give me on their plans would be helpful. $25 per month for 300 minutes and unlimited data seems too good to be true.

A. As far as I know you have to have a Virgin phone, but I have seen ads on Craig's list advertising that they flash phones for Virgin. I've never had it done, so I don't know if it works.
The plans are sort of too good to be true, but there's no trick.
$20 200
$30 400
$50 1000
There are other deals, different amounts. Texting too, I pay $4.99 for 200 texts, and use the bonus program to get free minutes. You can get up to 6000 free minutes a year by having other people use your bonus code when they sign up for a new account online, they get a free hour and so do you.
There is no charge if you don't use your phone. (I used to have Verizon prepaid and was charged $1 per day if I used it or not) You just have to put $20 on your account every 3 months to keep it current. If you don't put the $20 on your service will be turned off, but you have 60 days after that to save your account and keep your phone number.

If your do go with Virgin here is my code:
dGusqu0H

Just copy and paste, it's case sensitive.

Have you tried the Blackberry Curve 8530?

Q. I was thinking about getting the Blackberry Curve 8530, but wanted some opinions about it first. I havent had a Blackberry before, so please don't compare and I want to stay with Koodo, so its the only one thats available.

A. Is the Blackberry the only smartphone available through your carrier? Personally I was (and no longer) impressed with Blackberry and think for the money you can get better. I would go with Android OS if you can. Once I got a phone with Android OS I was done with Blackberry. Just my opinion.


which phone is better, LG Breeze or LG Optimus One?
Q. Im with the phone company, Koodo, and I cant decide which phone is better; the LG Breeze or LG Optimus One (Android). Help please !

How do I take names and numbers from Excel file and make vCards to put on my Android phone?
Q. I have an Excel file with two columns: names & phone numbers.
1) How can I easily change those to .vcf files (vCards) so I can put them on a microSD card and upload them to my Android 4.0 phone?
2) Instead of using a memory card, could I just attach the .vcf files to an email and somehow import them that way?
3) There are about 200 contacts... is there one big vCard file that can contain all of them, making them easier to transfer?

Thank you for your time!

A. Why would you want to waste your time making vCards. Android and Google have an awesome contacts system that syncs up with Google's cloud. Any changes you make on the phone or on the web in your Google account are automatically synced. If you get a new phone or something happens and you have to reset yours, the contacts are automatically synced to the device when you log in the first time.

You can use your Google mail account to import the file into your Contacts, then edit them as you wish. Go to Google Mail Help and search for the section on importing contacts.

What should i do? Buy a new iPod touch and a cheap phone, or an expensive smartphone?

Q. I really don't know what to do. I have been saving for a new iPod touch 32 GB 4th generation, but then my phone broke. I was looking around the web and found android phones. They look cool, can play some apps like iPod, is a phone and can watch films. Now they are fantastic but there expensive. I know apps will look better on the new retina display of the iPod, but the android phones are really good also. I only have 200 euro now and i can have a budget of about 300 euro (Price of iPod).
In the android phone i want:
WIFI
BIG HI RES TOUCH SCREEN
CAN PLAY APPS LIKE iPOD
PRE-PAY
WILL WORK ON IRISH NETWORK (O2, VODAFONE)

Now people are going to say the HTC Wildfire, but that cant play apps like iPod (im talkin about apps like asphalt)

Please give me advice, and an android model phone if possible! Thanks in advance!
If you look i said "In the android phone i want: PRE-PAY (Not bill pay) ... please know what you are saying is actually answering the question before!!

A. buy the ipod and cheap phone because with a smart phone, you have to pay the data plan and that is really expensive especially in the long run. Just think how much you'll be paying a year for data plan. So the ipod touch with a phone is way better. No data plan=success


Good new phones on a budget?
Q. Uhmm I'm looking for a new phone, preferably an Android phone, but I need it to be less than £200, preferably. Does anyone know of any good phones that might come into that category? Oh, and it needs to be on PAYG tooo. I don't need any links or anything, just suggestions of good Android phones that are within that sort of budget.
Thanks! :)

A. what about an LG Optimus V? Its prepaid here in the USA and costs $199.99 and $25/mo for 300 min and unlimited talk/text... I know Euros are better than dolloars, so this should be a bargin. LOL

What is a quality cheap android phone similar to an iphone/ipod touch that will meet my needs?

Q. I want a user friendly quality smartphone that is much cheaper but functions similar to an iphone, i want to send txts easily, be able to browse internet and read e books and watch videos decently and also the biggest thing is music! It will be maybe the primary reason why i use it, i'll sell my ipod touch and i love how easy it is on that so i want something similar, thanks! =]

A. A very good website to look for a cheap mobile phone is eBay. You're able to do a search for the model type, make and perhaps even the specification you want. Then filter the search results depending on the amount you would like to invest and you can either buy it instantly or possibly attempt to win with a bid on an auction. Usually auctions are a little lower priced if you happen to are successful in one.


What android phone has the best sound quality?
Q. I prefer an up and coming android phone, budget is around 500-600 USD

A. I think the Samsung Galaxy S is the Android with the best sound quality.

Perfect audio quality
Like many other things about this handset, the audio output of the Samsung I9000 Galaxy S is downright impressive. The handset was reasonably loud and scored excellently on each and every reading in our test.
The signal-to-noise ratio is impressive and so are the flawless dynamic range and frequency response.
The distortion levels are also top-notch and generally there is nothing about the Galaxy S audio quality that we can frown at. And here go the results so you can see for yourselves.

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9000_galaxy_s-review-478p6.php

The Motorola Atrix has excellent audio quality.

Excellent audio quality
The Motorola Atrix 4G audio output is pretty good, as is to be expected from a device in this price range. However Motorola seems to have allowed for its volume levels to be pushed beyond what the smartphone can actually handle when there are no headphones attached.
If you punch in the volume level all the way up when you are connected to an active external amplifier you get really loud output but with loads and loads of distortion, which is not quite ideal.
That's why you would be better off lowering the volume a couple of steps down - you will be enjoying some of the cleanest output we have ever seen. The Atrix 4G won't be one of the loudest devices around, but it scored greatly in every part of our test.
When headphones come into play the volume is automatically limited so there's nothing to worry about. There's a notable increase in the stereo crosstalk and some intermodulation distortion creeps in, but those are hardly detectable in real life scenarios.

http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_atrix_4g-review-589p7.php

Some other phones (though not Android) that has excellent or even "perfect" audio quality are...

All Iphones
Samsung S8500 Wave
The best Nokia phone in terms of sound quality is the 5800. (not that I would recommend it at this point)

Should I buy a graphing calculator or a phone?
Q. I'm buying some randoms and I'm considering either a graphing calculator or an android phone (Sony xperia ray. I already have a ti-83 plus graphing calculator and a android smartphone (galaxy nexus). Which one should I buy?

A. Whichever one you want.
The TI 84 is barely any different than the TI 83.
The TI 89 is not that better.
The nspires are great, if you how to use it.
The nspire cx is better, if you know how to use it.

And don't phones cost for service?

Get whatever you want or will use.

I would not use a phone because I have few friends, but I program my calculator all day long (maybe that's why I don't have friends)

Should I get a new verizon android phone now or wait?

Q. I'm already due for my upgrade and I currently have an lg dare. I will stay with Verizon. Currently the top android phones in verizon lineup are Motorola Droid 2 and X, htc droid incredible, Samsung Fascinate. Should I wait or get one of these now? Heard there is an amazing htc phone called htc merge with 10 megapixel camera and a droid pro.

A. Verizon is getting Iphone in january BUT compared to an android phone is suck.

The only thing you'll be getting with an Iphone is the novelty to say... "I HAVE AN IPHONE!!"

My android can give my laptop internet access anywhere.

Plus apple is expanding because their sales are expected to drop because of Android being such a strong competitor.

Android is an affordable smart phone that almost every carrier offers therefore you'll have more connectivity with people. You can also pick up an android phone with not only touch screen but a slide out keyboard making it easier to text in class, or while driving (not that I condone it.)

Plus if something happens to it you aren't doomed to make an appointment with specialist only for them to tell you that you have to buy a new iphone.

What kind of phone should i get next?

Q. I'm in the market for a new phone, the one i have (htc droid incredible) is on it's death bed.
I was considering the iphone 4s, is that a good phone or should i look into something else?

A. Okay, well Apple just released a speech quoting that the new Apple iPhone 5 will begin its launch on October, so the answer to the iPhone 4s is a no (unless you are desperate to get a phone). And, Android, which is an extremely familiar OS to me, which I can work wonders with works, and new phones that are on the "new" market for Android include, but is not limited to:

Samsung S III
Nokia Pureview (Phone with 41 Megapixel camera, with Carl Zeiss optics and lenses)
Motorola Atrix HD (Bran new phone with Quad - Core 1.5 GhZ processors with Tegra integrated chip)
Motorola Photon
HTC One X (Quad core processor with Tegra 3 integrated chip for enhanced experience)
HTC One S (More of a music smartphone, and comes with Dr Dre Beats© audio)
Samsung Galaxy Nexus (First phone to have the Android OS of ICS, and recently upgraded to OS of Jelly Bean)
Motorola Atrix (A recent powerhouse with Dual core processors and Tegra 2 integrated chips)
HTC Titan II
Samsung Galaxy Note( Huge and amazing display, providing you with all your business needs)
ZTE Grand X LTE (Dual Core Snapdragon 4g Silicon processor for extra power)
HTC One V (Not recommended as it is out-dated, with a small screen)
Droid Razar MAXX (Kevlar protection, for unimaginable protection, and an amazingly long lasting battery powered with the force of a 1.5 GhZ processor)
Sony Xperia Advanced

Apple:
Newest: Apple iPhone 4S (Dual core A5 processor with updated 5.1 iOS, with Siri©, iCloud, and more features for the old Apple device)

Keep in mind, the new Apple iPhone is launching in October 2012


what is the best android phone from metro pcs?
Q. hi all, i have been looking and phones and want some opinions.... there are a lot of nice phones out there but i am wondering about:

Coolpad Quattro� 4G

LG Connect 4G

HTC Wildfire S�

thanks!

A. The best in my mind is Lg Connect 4G,but see for yourself
If you've never lived in China, then chances are you've never heard of smartphone maker Coolpad. The company, which is a major mobile player across the Pacific (Coolpad outsells Apple there by a wide margin), hopes to make the jump to the United States with the Quattro 4G ($79 contract-free from metroPCS as of 10/2/2012), its first smartphone offering here. Though the phone has speedy 4G LTE and a good-sized 4-inch display, the Quattro 4G's clunky feel, outdated operating system, and poor camera won't make Coolpad a household name here any time soon.

ne of the recent phones to be released by the Taiwanese mobile giant HTC is the HTC Wildfire S. It is primarily meant to be a budget class Android phone and it has really served the purpose. It caught our attention at first sight and we have loved the phone ever since. So we thought we would give it our full attention and focus on the pros and cons of the HTC Wildfire S. So, here is the list of pros and cons of the phone.

Pros:

The phone has really excellent design and dimension specifics of 101.3 x 59.4 x 12.4 mm lengthwise, breadthwise and by thickness respectively. The device weighs a mere 105g which competed with all the devices in the market today.

The TFT capacitive touchscreen is actually miserly but given the cost of the phone, we feel it is pretty much worth it! We have always loved the HTC Sense UI and it is the same in this phone too.

The microSD expansion of the phone�s memory can be done up to 32GB which is really awesome but we were pissed with the internal memory specifics of the phone. We will come to that in the cons section. Still, we loved the RAM of the phone which is a pretty decent 512MB one.

The camera is a pretty decent 5MP shooter which can shoot good pictures at a resolution of 2592 x 1944 pixels, has features like autofocus, LED flash, geo-tagging, etc. VGA video recording is also possible at 24 fps, in the phone.

Unlike the LG phones, the HTC Wildfire S runs on the most advanced version of the Android operating system, the Android v2.3 (Gingerbread) and this is one of the features we love most about the phone.

Cons:

Of course, the phone has its own set of bad qualities too. Some of them are manifested in the form of bad processor, bad battery, etc. HTC, learn fast!

The processor of the phone is a really simple 600 MHz processor which can be easily beaten even by a Nokia 5130 Xpress Music phone (remember those red phones which caused quite a furore when they were released)

We also hate the speeds of GPRS and EDGE, which are 114 kbps and 560 kbps respectively. I mean come on, you can give us better speeds for the money we are paying. The phone isn�t that cheap!

The battery of the phone really sucks! The 1230 lithium ion fuel is no match for the rate at which Android is growing virulently! A powerful battery is a must have in all phones and HTC simply does not seem to understand this basic fact as far as mobile phones are concerned!

Anyone looking for a budget Android device; buy this one and you�ll not regret it!

A. Why would you not like the Nexus One interface and like the Hero? They are basically the same thing but the Nexus has the newer version of Android and has a bigger screen. If you want a different form factor, look at the Motorola Droid.

500MB Mobile Internet - HTC Desire?

Q. So I'm getting a HTC Desire mobile phone from a third-party website on the network : 3.

My plan is as follows : 300 texts, 300 minutes, 5000 3 to 3 minutes, Skype, Messenger, and 500MB internet data.

I am fine with all the other ones, however just wondering if 500MB is going to be enough for me?
Most of the time I will be connected to wifi, as I will be at home.

However when I go out to places without wifi range I will still want to use internet.

I have 500MB every month and when I'm not in range of wifi, I will be :

Watching videos on youtube.
Browsing the web.
Browsing the Android App Store.
Using Friend stream to update and read facebook status's.

Hope you guys can let me know if 500MB will last me a month or will I need to find a better deal?

A. You will use 500MB in your first few days using youtube without wifi. 500 is more than enough for webpages, email, facebook, etc. The real bandwidth hogs are streaming video and audio. Consider using them only with wifi or get a few gigs a month at least.


which phone should i get?
Q. should i get a
samsung captivate
lg quantum
pantech pursuit
sony Ericsson vivaz
palm pre plus
htc aria
or the
sharp fx

A. I would say the htc aria would have to be a great choice, hands down, (if this is a comparatively recent model from the htc range)!

I have an htc Wildfire right now, myself, (which is a smartphone - and is a good many months old now and my service provider is the 3 network: It is a touch phone which uses the Android operating system, and it really IS 'quietly brilliant!)
Some benefits of this phone are that it is only £15 per month on a contract, and you get a whopping 5000 Free talk time minutes a month if you use them to communicate with any other mobile on the 3 network! You can probably get a similar deal with any htc phone. But anyway, this htc phone I've got is a really great phone, and by far the best one I've ever had!

how are ext. numbers created for Numbers Such As business phones is it like a port . port fowarding are these.?

Q. extensions able to be created for a house phone just for giggles "for fun"!!?? what are the supplies i need to create such weird procedure? what are the steps to creating a ext number ..exp..4449
If this is in the wrong category can you tell me which one to put it in please

A. Extensions are typically in PBX systems, or IAX systems. In the case of the home, extension 100 may ring the garage, while 101 is for the kitchen, 102 is for the living room, and so on. This can be done relatively cheap (as compared to thousands per extension on old PBXes). However, this will involve some technical workings with a computer (preferably a dedicated computer).

You would want to install an IAX system (PBX in a Flash) comes to mind. This will be free, but will wipe a computer's hard drive, so you would want a dedicated PC for this. Once you done this, you would want to get a SIP service. Most SIP services will work, and you would want to make sure at least one supports


E911. Google Voice is also supported which will give you free calls in US/CA.

You would set up all SIP services you would be using. You would set up dialing rules (such as using one SIP carrier for UK calls). The phone numbers you would port should port to one of your SIP providers. The calls will go to the IAX server. You would set up a Ring Group so that any calls to that SIP service will ring all of the appropriate phones.

In example, if you went to Broadvoice and ported your phone number to them from you telephone company, you would then set up the credentials that Broadvoice gives you into the IAX system. You may then set it up to ring Group 1 which will ring all of the phones on the first floor. You could also set it up to ring a particular extension.

You would also need SIP phones, or ATAs. Android, and iOS has SIP clients that you could use to make calls with the IAX. Each SIP client should have its own extension. For some phones like the Siemens Gigaset, there is an RJ45 connection at the access point, and can support multiple SIP accounts, therefore you can set up multiple phones to talk to the same access point. An ATA is an analog telephone adapter which has a RJ11 (phone jack) and will connect to the home network.

For the old fashion POTS or if you have a proprietary VOIP (like Vonage), you would need to install an FXO/FXS card in the PC.The FXS will connect with the carrier, while the FXO connects to the home phones. If you go all SIP/ATA option, you would not need an FXO.

If you want to greet your callers with the option to press 1 for this person, or 2 for that person, then you would need to have the IAX server to use an IVR (Interactive Voice Reception) which some SIP services may have a hard time dealing with.

Now, if you are scared of doing all of this, but want to take the services in, you could use a hosted services such as PBXes.org, or Toktumi. PBXes is more technical, and less features than a full fledge IAX, but you would get basic extension support, and SIP control. Toktumi supports IVR, but will forward callers to either voice mail, or a phone number.

Anyone think iPhone 5 is better than Android Galaxy S3?

Q. Anyone I ask always says the Galaxy S3. Can anyone give personal reasons why they like one over the other? I've asked in the past and people just send me links. I want to know, if you have an iPhone or Galaxy S3, why do you love it, and why you think it is better than the other one? I am getting either for Xmas, just not sure which one yet.

A. My bf has an iPhone and its a good phone, but from my personal opinion (I have the galaxy s3,) I like the galaxy s3 way more because of all the cool things on it. My boyfriend even likes my phone more than his because its badass (excuse my language.) They are both really good phones, but I would recommend the galaxy s3.


can anyone help me with what i should buy a PS3 or PS vita ?
Q. i am going to buy a game console for myself in this xmas break and was wondering which one of them is worth buying !

A. Definitely the Ps3 since there wont be any successor in 2012. Ps3 has many more benefits than the Xbox, yet the xbox 360 is still favored over... oh well it's a good thing. all the hackers and professionals can be playing on the 360.

The PS Vita has been getting bad reviews, and portable gaming devices are losing behind mobile phones. I'll say.... if you're gonna get a console. PS3. If you're gonna get a portable gaming device. and Android phone (or tablet) you got a cellphone, a mini-laptop, a portable gaming device all in one.

What is the best android phone right now?

Q. I want to know what is the best android phone right now? Because I'm going to buy it for my dad's birthday! I found htc Hero on ebay and it's under $300 is the price ok? I don't like the nexon one's interface.

A. Why would you not like the Nexus One interface and like the Hero? They are basically the same thing but the Nexus has the newer version of Android and has a bigger screen. If you want a different form factor, look at the Motorola Droid.

What Verizon smart phone should I get?

Q. One of my friends has a Motorola Droid, and he says he only uses a computer to videochat and for schoolwork. I am looking to get a phone and do the same. I am looking into Android phones as well as Blackberry. Which phone will allow me to do everything I need to do as far as text, call, surf the web, facebook, facebook chat, aim, and e-mail? I also need a good keyboard and fast browser.

A. The Droids keyboard is actually pretty horrible- I fixed that issue by downloading Swype. Plus now 2.1 has speech-to-text so thats pretty sweet too. As far as a webcam, I'm sure there's an app to do it- I've seen one for UStream.. And the Droid definitely does all of the other things you mentioned..

How is the Samsung Galaxy Proclaim with Straight Talk?

Q. Anyone who has it, do you like it? If I have the $45/month unlimited Straight Talk plan, do I get unlimited internet use/data or is it limited to 2G/month? Is it still the same Verizon coverage as the other Straight Talk phones?

A. I have been using it for about a week now, and I am very impressed. For the last 4-5 years at least, all the Verizon-based phones on Straight Talk, TracFone and Net10 have been less desirable than their AT&T-based counterparts. Based on that experience, I didn't have the highest expectations for the "Samsung Galaxy Proclaim," the first Straight Talk smart phone to use the Verizon Network.
So far, I have been very happy with it. Here are some reasons why:
It has a 1Ghz processor that is snappy enough to make the phone run pretty quickly.
I love using Swype to compose text messages.
My data connection speeds have been acceptable and at least as good as I expect.
Battery life is very good - it has lasted me all day during my most vigorous testing.
I have installed quite few apps and they all run well.
All in all, I think for $180 for the phone and $45 a month, this Android phone running on Verizon is a great deal.

Some people questioned the size of the phone (3.5-inch screen), and that's really a matter of personal preference. With new phones such as the Samsung Galaxy Note (5.5-inch screen), the trend seems to be toward bigger devices. For me personally, a one-handed phone is better. I have also used an HTC Inspire with a 4.3 inch display, and it was very very nearly too large for me to hold the phone in one hand and still be able to reach all corners of the screen with my thumb. And a screen that big requires a lot of juice to light it up, and this necessitates a big battery that adds substantial weight and bulk.

Another thing is that the Proclaim is running with the Gingerbread version of Android, not the newer Ice Cream Sandwich. But Google has been pretty slow to roll out ICS phones, so I'm not surprised that the Proclaim is Gingerbread. I've heard great things about ICS, but I'm content with Gingerbread and I'm pretty sure that 90% of phone users out there will be happy with it too, especially on a prepaid phone.

I'll be posting more info about this on the site referenced below, including some videos and lots of pictures. If you have more questions, you can definitely post them in the comments section on any page of that site and I'll do my best to answer you.

Is it possible to get an Android phone without a talking plan?

Q. I'd like to get an Android phone WITHOUT buying any kind of talking plan, only a data plan.
Is this possible?
I'd like to use it as an iPod but be able to get on the internet where I don't have wifi.
I don't know much about this, as you can tell.
Thanks in advance.

A. If you don't need any type of talking plan but you want an android, I would suggest the galaxy tablet. Plans start at only $20 per month and you can do everything on these but make phone calls. If you sign a contract the price is only $199. The only negative is if you wanted to use this as a ipod, it might be a little too big.

How to install non-market android apps?
Q. I have a Sony Ericsson X10 (X10a)Android phone. I read you can check a box in the application settings but alas, I do not have such a "box" in my Application Settings.

So how do I let my phone download non-market apps?
Can I even download non-market apps?

A. You can download them, but you can't install them. It appears your carrier have locked out that option. (let me guess... AT&T?)

There's a program called "The Amazing Sideload Machine" that will transfer the app through PC to your phone. Look it up.

What should I buy, Samsung Galaxy S3 or iPhone 5?

Q. I'm getting a new phone next week (Thursday) and I really need to decide which one is better. My current phone is a Blackberry Bold and my dad thinks that iPhones are better since they have greater value than the Samsung.

So please help me which to buy. I'm really confused. Btw, I never really had an iPhone and any Galaxy S series but I have an iTouch 4. And most of the people are buying iPhone 5 now. My friends has iPhone 5 or even the iPhone 4s now.

A. Don't be mainstream!
I hate it when people are like this on Facebook/Twitter:
"Ermagherd, check it out a iPhone i'm so hipsterrrrrr #swag #yolo"

Anyway, Samsung Galaxy S3 is better value than iPhone 5, why? Here are some manufacturing costs for you to consider:
iPhone 5: $207 for basic 16GB (estimate: IHS)
Samsung Galaxy S3: Around $200.

Now, consider outright price:
iPhone 5: $649
Galaxy S3: ~$410.

Hence, Galaxy S3 better value for money.

Better value for features too:
iPhone 5
Apple Maps (not a feature, a negative, really.)
Passbook (Does not work for us here in Australia, not a feature.)
App Store (Ok, real plus)
Facebook App actually works.
Retina Display (not a feature anymore, really with 1080p phones now available).
Siri (Still broken)

Galaxy S3
S Voice (Very Very broken)
Play Store (Some second rate apps there).
Google Maps. (Good)
Smart Stay (Gimmick)
S-Whatever (All Gimmicks)
NFC (Good, you can use your phone as a travelcard)
SuperAmoled Display (Depends on whether you like them or not).

Ok, so about even on good vs useless features (Those are the ones I know off the top of my head).

If you can wait another 2 or 3 weeks, get the Galaxy S4, it's better than the iPhone 5 by a long shot.
And you have an iTouch 4, so you don't need an iPhone
(I have the same deal, iTouch for Apple account cause I got lots of iTunes stuff, and Galaxy S2 cause I like Android).


im going to thailand and im wondering how much a cheap iphone 4 would cost?
Q. im not looking to spend more than 100 aud

A. at the top level of jungceylon in patong phuket they are 26000 thai baht.
i was thinking maybe they would be cheaper in thailand but i found most apple products were generally about the same price as they are here in australia.
however if your interested in other brands you can get some great deals.
i bought a samsung galaxy mini running android for 5700 thai baht unlocked (about 170aud) and im not sure about now but 1 month ago this wasn't yet released in australia. its the best phone ive ever had. i also bought this laptop acer aspire for 20000 baht which is about 1/4 of what the equivelant would cost here in australia.
its good if you shop around but dont expect $100 iphone4's to be falling from the sky.
as somebody else mentioned, be weary of fakes. Some of those fakes look pretty original.

how do i change home screen actions on an android phone?
Q. When i first got my galaxy s2 and i swiped from one home screen to another the wallpaper would move a little to end up showing the whole picture , but not it wont do it anymore. IDK what i did to change this. how do i change it back?

thank you=)
that option does not come up anymore.......i do remember seeing it ask for that when i first got the phone.

A. In TouchWiz (Samsung's version of Android), when you set a picture as the wallpaper, you should get a prompt to resize the picture, and also to set it as landscape or portrait. If you select portrait, the picture will not scroll. However, if you select the landscape option, it will scroll.

Also, in Settings>Display>Animation, check the "All animations" option. If this is turned off, then this animation will not be shown. It is meant to save a little bit of battery, but really isn't all that useful.

What android phones have the best front facing camera?
Q. Wow, I just recieved my very first android phone today (Motorola Atrix 4g). I loved it. Until I opened up the camera app. The front facing camera is F*CKING HORRIBLE! I had the ipod4, and its front camera was very nice. Im so mad. I really need the front facing camera since I travel so much, and do alot of video calls. WHAT android phone has a very nice front facing camera. One under $300 please?

A. The iPhone 4 and 4S both have a .3 MP VGA camera in the front.
The Atrix has a .3 MP VGA camera in the front.

Usually, with cameras, megapixels don't tell the whole story. But, for .3MP, at VGA resolution, there's really not going to be much difference between two different models.

For one of them to be "F*CKING HORRIBLE" and one of them to be "very nice" I would suspect that you're either exaggerating the difference, or perhaps the software is showing them differently. Example: Perhaps during a video call the iPhone SW is showing you a direct feed from your camera, while the Android SW shows what the person on the other end is actually seeing. I don't know if that's the case, I'm just giving an example of one thing that could *potentially* be going on.

Either way, I find it hard to believe it has anything to do with the camera in this case. It's either the user or the software.

What Verizon phone should I get to work in Poland?
Q. I'm going to Poland for 2 weeks. Would love to have my smart phone fully functional. However, my first-gen Motorola Droid will be a brick as it is CDMA-only.

I know there are some "global" Verizon Android phones, but I haven't tried any of them. Anybody have experience with one of the newer, GSM-enabled Droids in Europe? Will the HTC Thunderbolt work in Poland?

Thanks!

A. Ben, do not take any Verizon phones with you to EU. If you need a phone get one of the unlocked 4 band phones from Ebay ($25 or more) and than activate in Poland with one of the providers there. Use prepaid service. Cost from $5, this includes free incoming calls and may be 30 min outgoing plus SIM card and activation..
