Galaxy S decided to pack up while I was on my hols, not good as I relied on the maps to get me there :grin:
All being fixed under warranty, pisser is I lost some photos I took of the kids as it wouldn't go past the boot up screen so wouldn't access the internal memory :angry:
Lesson learnt though, save EVERYTHING to the SD card (although I don't think you can do this with the iphone :lipsrsealed:)

HTC :wink:
-
iphone wouldnt have broken though :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

Neither would a HTC....

If they do and it's in warranty you don't have to wait for it to be sent away..... :grin:
Even if you smash the screen...They let that pass if you get a nice one.

Yes, you should have got an HTC, Samsung's build quality is dire.

For the price of an iphone vs others of similiar/better hardware, I bloody well hope they would ALWAYS replace the glass for free. However everyone I know that has broke the glass on their iphone has had to claim off insurance or replace the glass themselves as Apple wouldn't, and another friend whose iphone packed up and started calling people in the middle of the night, wouldn't sync and wouldn't charge had to send it off and wait for it to be repaired - she wasn't happy. The only reason you get 'better' service from Apple is because of the price tag and it's in their best interest to keep people happy. The other OEM's know you'll claim on insurance and don't have an ecosystem like Apple so don't need to keep people as happy as Apple does. It's the ergonomics of economics that Apple relies on. It's not you they care about, it's only your wallet they're interested in.
Best thing that happened today? Android won over my Applite father in law. WIN.
-
Mine has been sent off for repair, more than likely a software fault so it will be wiped and reinstalled.
TBH I prefer the android layout compared to the iphone
-
iphone is only better because itunes backs up the whole of the phone when you sync it to the computer. If your phone breaks you can get a new one and restore all your data back to the new phone.
Not sure if HTC has that kind of backup software

+1 Backup how ever much or little of the phone you want to your SD card then upload it to a cloud based storage solution (Dropbox etc) then reinstall/upgrade the OS off a file on the SD card and do a complete wipe then restore settings/apps using the backup app - or do an 'over the top' reinstall/upgrade and you don't loose your settings, HTC also has sync'ing software which does what most people want, however they haven't (stupidly?) made an OS X version.
You can use HTC Syncâ„¢ to synchronize Outlook contacts and calendar or Outlook Express contacts (Android & HTC Smart)and the bookmarks of web browser between your computer and your phone(Android). It also lets you install third-party Android applications on the phone, and bring your photos, videos, documents, songs, and playlists to your phone(Android).

iPhones are incredibaly fragile. I've know loads of people who've dropped theirs and shattered the screen.
-
iPhone is the best built phone I've ever used. Took 20 minutes to drown my last one ;)

That's not saying much compared to a new shabby build Samsung :laugh:
My old Samsung was great, took so many batterings and even a drop kick on a night out :lipsrsealed: Still works now :grin:
-
i got my htc hero cos it felt like it would still work if i dropped it a few times, i have dropped it loads and it still works, but th esignall is shyt, i had a samgsung phone once and broke it the first day i had it cos of pressure on the screen in my pocket
-
i love my HTC hero, dropped a couple of times and still works fine, only issues are battery is dire (10hours from full to empty) and android 2.1 has slowed it almost to a crawl.
-
New battery + cyanogenmod = win :wink:

Im on my 4th iphone 4 now, for some reason theyve all stopped working after i threw them at solid things it was sooo annoying getting it fixed.....
step 1, walk into apple, play dumb, get phone swapped for a new one.

Samsung Omnia 7 Running Windows Mobile 7 :afro: :lipsrsealed:

f**k Apple, HTC all the way.
-
They get slated but my x10 is a bloody good phone, hated the samsung and nearly bought an iphone, but contracts are crap on them. Glad ive got this now, feels a better build quality and ive had no issues with it since update.
-
Never had any problem with my iphones.. :cool:

Well it's back. And so far so good. Froyo has been ditched and replaced with Gingerbread which is loads better for battery life as it seems to have filtered out the unnecessary power hungry background apps. Another bonus is all my photos and videos of the kids were still on here :smiley:
-
HTC Sensation should be delivered on Tuesday morning. :smiley:

Whats the Galaxy like with Gingerbread, any significant changes..?
-
well from having a play today it no longer communicates with my PC in any form not just Kies and seems to be very laggy on stuff like the photo gallery so a big thumbs down from me so far :sad:
-
Kies is now sorted, not sure how though lol
Still a bit laggy on some apps...

Good good, I had a little play with one in a store yesterday and was rather impressed to say the least.
-
In the 9 months I've had my phone, CPU's have gone nuts! from 600mhz to 1.2Ghz and dual cores rather than single cores!
Roll on early next year with when the Quad cores are due out and I'm due an upgrade :cool: :evil:
-
Yeah the Sensation has a 1.2Ghz dual core processor.
-
the standard gallery browser is crap, download quickpic from the market, SOOOO much better

Should have got iphone 5 , it will piss on HTC when it comes out then jailbreak it :grin:
