    Directions/Navigation app?

    Yes, my GPS sucks major appendage as well, almost making me want to ditch this for an iphone. Gotta love a company that puts all its mobile eggs in one basket. That ensures that the phone is going to be top notch with very little issues. As to the navigation app, I'm trying out Sygic as both...

    Video proof that this battery is HORRIBLE!

    I've been reading every board regarding poor battery life because I have been getting 10% loss per hour while being unused consistently almost regardless of what I did or the conditions. I even contemplated switching phones. Location = Big Bear, CA With zero changes to my phone, I traveled to...

    GPS Lock

    UPDATE: i just tested sensor aiding more and it seems to affect locks when on wifi. I was just driving home today and fired up telenav and for the entire 2hr duration my phone never got a gps lock once! Suffice to say, I'm highly upset with Samsung. Sent from a Crapdroid in a beautiful bod

    GPS Lock

    Both maps, google nav and telenav work fine for me with very fast locks. I'm pretty sure any app that calls upon the gps will work fine for me. Again, I haven't had problems ever since turning off sensor aiding. Sent from a Crapdroid in a beautiful bod

    LOS not a big thing?

    I have not had any issues with Los. If your signal is good and you are experiencing those problems, you might want to get the device replaced. Sent from a Crapdroid in a beautiful bod

    Calendar Appointments

    With instructions that complicated, screw the other guy and their shared Appt. I guess with me, I'll be the only one that knows my calendar events! Sent from a Crapdroid in a beautiful bod

    Can anyone get GPS to lock in airplane mode (ie no cell signal)?

    Yes, please post the changes! I just drained about $220 worth of my soul and paid Sandisk with it to get their 64gb sd card so that I could load detailed hiking maps and use this phone for everything. Now I just found out that GPS doesn't work out of the box in airplane mode.... I will be...

    GPS Lock

    I suppose in your case, a bulging, veiny forearm with a bicep at the end pointing the way would do it... Haha And look in the 'locations and security' section of settings, accessible by hitting the menu key when at the home screen. You will see it there. Sent from a Crapdroid in a beautiful bod

    GPS Lock

    You could make those posts stickied, flashing, and with very talented girls jumping up and down in front of them and there will be people who still fail to see them. It's just a fact of life. But just to keep things relevant and worthy of posting, try turning off sensor aiding. That seemed to...

    How to use Memory Expansion Slot?

    Yes, but that still doesn't answer the question of accessing the usb portion through the OS (not using PC over a USB connection) . Again, how do you store SELECT apps (games etc) and it's associated data on the usb portion? This line of questioning is somewhat rhetorical since I'm pretty sure...

    Galaxy S? II, Epic? 4G Touch d710 Desktop Dock

    I doubt any dock is designed with aftermarket 3rd party cases in mind. Sent from a Crapdroid

    How to use Memory Expansion Slot?

    So then, this revelation begs the next question... How do we use the usb storage? Apps either use internal phone or sd card. I want all games and extraneous apps on usb... media files, offline maps and music on sd card. Solutions? Sent from a Crapdroid

    Micro SD cards

    And just wtf are you? At least make a pertinent comment however inane it may be or have the gumption to process what others say with a little bit of thought before opening that pie hole of yours. I accept VALID criticism, not stupid, unintelligent, off-the-cuff remarks that have no relevance...

    Micro SD cards

    I bought the newly released 64gb model straight from sandisk. The 220 is with tax and shipping. I knew I would pay a large premium, but storing satellite imagery along with 1080p videos is not kind on space. Sent from a Crapdroid
