[Tamurman999]

i used the i phone 4 for the last 2 year the galaxy S 11 blows it out the water apple are ROBBERS JUMP

[Monstoday]

I've had an SGS2 for 2 months now and I've picked up new tips here, so thanks for the run-through of this phone. What I found interesting is that you revealed a stop watch from the bundled Clock app, so I don't have to download it as 3rd party. The only question I have is how do you get the Active Apps widget? I can't find it under Android or Orange widgets. One tip I can show you for the calculator though, is that when you turn the phone to landscape, it will change from basic to scientific :-)

[FsSkillz]

Hello can I have some help the status bar has gone then it comes back on the apps..

[MrWAHAJ619]

[JoeCarswell]

What's the difference between RAM, system and USB storage, and what sorts of things on the phone use which sort?

[JB3PAC]

For everyone asking 'How do you get that Active Applications thing', you go to widgets and press 'Program Monitor' :)

[Monstoday]

@JB3PAC I've long-clicked the homescreen for the widgets pop-up menu, looked under Android widgets and Orange widgets and can't I find Program Monitor. Maybe it's my Android version? (2.3.3)

[bboyShinsetsu]

how did you get the the task manager thing in the middle of your screen?

[Coolflame00]

Readers hub kobo books keeps on downloading ebooks i already downloaded everytime i open it. Anyone else has this problem?

[LUCKYSTARVALLEY]

how to change the front orange color when you want to turn on the phone. You have to remove the first page how can change that? Please help! Nice video.

[lamhooi]

@iphonehacker333 sorry the correct order should be; press on the menu button, go for Add, flip thru the option till you find program monitor, tap & tap again to confirm your selection.

@Wanted19922009 It goes onto your next month's phone bill. If you're on pay as you go, it knocks the value off your top-up balance.

great video. I thought I was an "iPhone" girl but I have to say that I loooooove my Galaxy S2 (just bought it 3 days ago). I still get my Apple "fix" with my iPad and iPhone. I like the flexibility that the Android system provides ie. ring tones etc.I think I'm in love :)

[Kennsepp]

Hey! I just bought my samsung galaxy s2 and I got to say this was a really nice video!:D good job:D

[lisanneee17]

i you just press the home button while in a app does it always keep running in the back ground and is that anoying

[samantha351993]

you sound like a right stuck up div

[raulfervaz]

Hi, do the galaxy S2 get hot often? I mean really hot. And whta about the wifi signal strengh?? I will appreciate your response

[emmiemcD]

@raulfervaz i've had my Galaxy SII for a few mths now, it's never switched off even when charging and i can honestly say it doesn't get hot...Wifi is outstanding depending on the strength of the wifi signal you're using obviously

[xxlaaauren]

how did you get that little box for closing applications?!!

[MrDarKMemories]

I just noticed u r having the same issue with this widget as well...exactlly at 10:12min...

The widget shows 3, but actually only 2 apps are running with u!!!!!

Kind a strange bug in this widget.

Cheers

[MrDarKMemories]

Dear duncsweb,

Very nice review...........i have a Q please.

Regarding the Program monitor widget ( active applications), i am facing a aproblem which is , when i open an application and close it, the widget shows (1) active application but when i enter the widget, nothing in there and when press back it becomes (0)...!!!!!

Does this happen to u as well????cos it is very annoying

mostly, happening with ( accua weather which is per-installed by Samsung & internet )....

Hope u can help

Cheers

[chuotube]

why you put a video, if you have nothing inside the phone?

[kppratheek]

hey nice review...am gettin dis soon...!!

[KeveHilfi]

How can you get the "active application" - screen and how can I make the weather-platform smaller like you did on the second home screen (normally it's bigger)? I got the phone this week and it's completely new for me, so it would be very nice from you if you could tell me. Thanks

[shmav52]

[tempak332]

[Method2TheMadness]

How do You make the app bigger, like the (active apps) icon? or whats the app called, HELP

[sfr1007]

[MyOtakuCorner]

[Flandersir]

[smallsk8er]

[mackedacke]

Thanks for a great video, this was the most interesting one on YouTube in my opinion. Thanks! :-)

[blackMark001]

very great review..

[duncsweb]

@djnnmister It is a second alarm with a relaxing tone that plays a defined time beforehand and if you don't wake up it'll play your standard alarm

[stavros5824]

@duncsweb ooooor you can set an alarm before an alarm and have the same effect

[MrEstk]

@duncsweb hey does have search in the music player ????????????//thx man

[h3nc0]

I want this!

[DaRobbss]

would love to be able to have a phone like this :(

[JamieJWSmith]

Yup i want that phone

[TaifOtacud]

W Android. Android if FREEDOM!

[illage2]

How do you update the OS on Android Phones?

[rahmanroni]

I think direct wifi is a great option. Instead of using the bluetooth or sending it over mms, its really fast and direct. If you have another phone that supports it, basically its sending over wifi 802.11 n.
