Tell me if this helps! Thanks for posting!

Thanks a lot dude.... sorry for the delay....was held up with something.

This means i would still have to have a converter, convert videos and then transfer them to my new phone...............which happens to be form the same manufacturer whose old phone could play almost anything under the sun...duh.....( i meant the galaxy s). Too bad google, samsung left you short changed.....And bad for us....

Or one could use the Vplayer, from the market, which btw, has gone from "free" to "paid" after the nexus s was released.....anticipating the potential no doubt.

New problem Baco........

I got the 2.3.2 update, and don't know what really changed......(could help me out with that as well), and i donno if its due to this or not....but today my swype beta that i installed suddenly stopped working. The software doesn't seem to be aware that it is not working properly...ie., it shows the tips and tutorials properly, but i cannot swype type anything on it... as if it forgot all the words in its memory....i can still type on it the normal way.....Anybody else has this issue? Any ideas? Any solutions?

Does anybody feel the battery takes an eternity for a full recharge....

i noticed that it takes 3.5 hrs for a 95% charge and then just sits there........i switch off the charger and switch it on again and takes another 30 min for 100 %.

There was a post somewhere about this. Basically, I think you're seeing the management system kicking in.

It's not good for Li-ion batteries to be 0% or 100% charged for any length of time, so the post I recall reading was hypothesizing that it will take the battery to 100%, then let it run down a little wait, and bring it slowly back up. It also mentioned that the "reporting" system was doing some weird things, too.

I've noticed this somewhat on my S, too. Some mornings it's at 100% and others it's only at 97%. It also seems to drop from 100% - 90% really fast, then it slows up. In any case, I always make it to the end of the day with anywhere from 40% to 25%, depending how the Word Feud battles are going. (And in my case, they are never going too well)

No doubt this is a good program, but why pay $35 when there are open source/freeware alternatives? You might want to check out Freemake Video converter: just drag and drop the source file, hit the "to Android" button, and you're done!
