    Just moved from iphone.

    One of the things I liked was the ability to touch the top of the screen it would scroll all the way to the top automatically (useful in Twitter or Facebook)

    Can this be done on SGS2?

    Yes, if you use 3 fingers to swipe up or down, it will quickly scroll to the top or bottom of a menu (like FB friends list or phone contacts) source: Tip: Galaxy S II/Tab 10.1 TouchWiz, multi-touch quick scroll

    hI, I am a newbie, but would really appreciate tips (and other new Galaxy Sii users would too I am sure) on what to turn on/off in order to conserve battery life, as I only get 7 hrs use (10am - 5pm) daily, with maybe only max 10 minutes online web reading news on train! wifi is off, ditto bluetooth, gps, brightness to auto. Email accounts sync to my phone also.

    Additionally there is reputed to be an update to version 2.3.6 from 2.3.4, but my phone says 'no update available'. Can I access it from anywhere else?
    Many thanks in advance!

    Don't know if anyone has said this but you can hide folders by putting a . infront of it (thanks to Guide on hiding files)

    Lightbulb LED - improvising

    Realize this may not be the exactly correct place for this......

    But is it possible to improvise an LED by creating an all black screen (maybe a screen lock wallpaper) that is all black except for a small colored area when appropriate to indicate if you have mail, missed SMS or missed call?

    Hello everyone,
    I have a small problem, I bought a new Galaxy s2 and a samsung 32GB (class 10) micro sd. I was very happy installing some gameloft games and some apps WHEN the phone says it doesnt have space. I checked the Storage options and it seems that the phone created a new folder for my SD card and named it "external_sd". That means, My SD card is allmost empty and I cant install more things because the internal is full...

    I searched this on google, and some people say to install Astro others say app2sd etc etc BUT none of them solve the problem because the phone still thinks that the "SD" is the SD folder(actually haves that name) that is inside of the internal storage.

    Does anyone know how to fix this? I even tryed to move the Gameloft folder to the "external_sd" one, and I had to DL everything again... Maybe there is a way but I .. I simply cant see how. The device is not rooted. Maybe if I wait for ICSit will fix that, or not?

    Thank you.

    p.s. I am posting this here because for some reason I cant make a new thread o.o
