Ordered a silver on Wenesday last week. On the way to me in NJ!! Will arrive tomorrow!! Love how TMO acknowledges their 7 year+ customers with overnight shipping for free!

Not sure if you are still looking, but you may wanna take a look at the Noontec Zoro headphones. They aren't a well known company, but they have GREAT sound. Right now, Tanga.com is running a deal on them. You can get them for 69.99. Regular price on Amazon usually hovers between 129.99 and...

Re: **ATTENTION: Severe problem with the T-Mobile Galaxy S2 scre I've been confused by these screen issues forever. I've seen the pics on XDA. I've seen the multitude of people complaining about verticle lines. To be honest, I have NEVER had this issue on my phone. Now I've been told I'm one...

Hannukah is right around the corner!! This will be a perfect gift for my wife. PICK ME PICK ME!!!

Re: Root my SGSii or wait for ICS?? What would be the purpose of waiting? Once the source for ICS comes out the devs will begin working on ICS roms for our phone. All updates are available for rooted phones shortly after they get released because the devs mod them to work with rooted phones.

The new widget locker is excellent. Having the Sense lockscreen with out the Sense bulkiness is AMAZING. I will agree that TW4 is better than previous TW. But thats like saying someone who is 3ft is taller than someone who is 2 ft 11.9 inches. He's taller but only just....

Why do people love TouchWiz? I hate the fact that the 4 buttons on the bottom can't be changed and also that it takes up valuable screen real estate! Also, TouchWiz lockscreen has got to be the most boring and annoying to unlock. Routinely I need to swipe more than once to unlock. Give me...

You must have a faulty device. I run WiFi all day and have never had the battery last me shorter than 6-8 hours.

Rooting allows you to install modified versions of the Sense OS. There a lot of VERY talented people working (for free!) over at XDA Developers Forums. They have tinkered with the sense OS to make it a lot less of a resource hog there by making the battery last longer. I have had a lot of luck...

Hi sorry I didn't answer sooner! Basically the battery is just too small for the dual core and the resource hog that is Sense 3.0. The CHICHITECH is an extended battery that holds more of a charge and therefore lasts longer. If you don't plan to root and install custom roms then this is the...

Just ordered this phone direct from TMO. Using it to replace my Sensation which I loved but for some reason I'm just addicted to having the latest and greatest phone! Oh well. The Nexum Prime intrigues me but I'm hearing that it is Verizon exclusive and since my contract with TMO isn't up until...

Yeah I just sent this report to them using the TIP US link as soon as I saw it on PC Magazine's website. Now I don't know if I should splurge for a GS2 or wait on the slim hope that the Nexus Prime won't be VZ exclusive. What to do what to do!

There is a lot of info on this issue around all the Android forums, specifically this forum and also XDA. The long and short of it is like this: Sense 3.0 is a resource hog. Passed that, the battery that HTC provided for the Sensation is beyond inadequate. I recommend purchasing the CHICHITECH...
