Videos need to be 480×352 or smaller to play back properly; use dafualt player or download Video Player from market; Inbuilt Music player is exceptional and nothing extra is needed; 6. no idea of rss reader, search market com.alex.BluetoothFileshare-1.0.3 1ST EDITTION.rar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted January 13, 2010 Few Pointers - - I flashed new modaco rom earlier. Was facing issue of few icons not displaying properly like Peep (Twitter Client) and Voicemail; Resolution - went back to nandroid backup (in rooted device, press home and then power to access that menu) and did a wipe (factory reset) and then flashed rom from zip file on my sd card. Its incredible, no computers's are needed to flash roms and everything can be done from the device itself. After new rom loaded (in 5 minutes or so), just entered my gmail address and everything synced within minutes and all my contacts and calendars were restored. Total procedure of ROM Update and Restore Data - Less than 15 minutes. - the Delivery Reports in SMS are very good and specify exact name/number of the person delivered to and the time delivered (unlike windows mobile); Useful when sending same message to multiple recipients. - You can send Group SMS directly from Phone; the application is built in . But for that you have to create Groups which are automatically saved in your Gmail contacts also. - In SMS there is no Sent Folder as the SMS is saved in Chat Style. Also you wont see the Draft Folder by default. To save a message in Draft, just Compose a new message and dont send it; just press the back button; it will automatically be saved in Drafts and a new Drafts folder will now be visible in Menu. - Phone can be made Silent or Vibrate directly from the Volume Down Key. - Planning to shift to Postpaid as these NUC charges on data will kill me... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lijodavis 1 Report post Posted January 13, 2010 i have no idea to rooting.i am totally new to this.can you provide me guidance.and what are the benefits of rooting?is there any disadvantage? What will we do if we stuck in the middle? our contacts and calender will be synced after it but what about the programs installed from market and the data inside it? Some tips: http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/184659-1/master_google_android_40_tips_and_tricks.html 5. Try using folders to keep your home screen organized. Long-press on a blank space and select Folders to create one. You can then drag and drop frequently used contacts, apps, or other shortcuts into it to cut down on clutter. To rename a folder, press and hold the folder's title bar while it's open. 16. Stay up to speed with your feeds with the help of NewsRob, a handy app that syncs your phone with your Google Reader account.

kshah 452 Report post Posted January 15, 2010 Email client of hero (Android) is really poor. I fail to understand why mail client can not support IMAP IDLE? G mail application can be configured only for 1 mail ID. Symbian mail client on N97 support imap idle out of box. With multiple mail boxes support. Its said than k9mail is supporting imap idle. I will download and post comment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
