Really noob question guys for a first android user.

1) I tried putting my .mp3 into my music folder but I'm unable to set those into ringtones.

2) How to set SMS ring tones?

3) I tried inserting a HD video to my phone through KIES but I'm unable to see it anywhere in the phone, probably lost somewhere.

4) Guide me where to look for accessories for the phone.

1) Create a folder inside your internal or external storage called "Ringtones" and dump the sound file in there.
2) Create a folder inside your internal or external storage called "Notifications" and dump the sound file in there.
3) Better transfer the video using USB storage mode. KIES has the potential to convert your video to stock player friendly. If you using 3rd party player program, you won't that to happen right?
4) Please specify the accessories and read posts on the first page.

Congrats for V6

Thanks for the help!

For video, I'm not quite sure what you meant though since I am not using a 3rd party player. Do I need to be rooted in order to use these 3rd party videos? I thought the built in video is sufficient to play the videos I'm planning to upload. Anyhow I do not which folder I should dump the videos via USB storage mode.

Nope, no need root to enjoy Android apps except selected few laaa.

You can copy to either internal or external storage. Just create a folder for better media management. When you unplug the phone from pc, the phone will automatically scan for any new files. If the video file supported, it will be displayed in the video player.

Many thanks

Got a few questions to ask.

I'm running on stock OS and I feel there are some apps which I don't want.

But the thing is which apps is safe to remove? I don't want to have any dependancies once I remove the apps (eg: Social Hub, Gaming Hub, Reading Hub)

You need to root to have fonts changed. Do it at your own risk. Just google at forum XDA - many links teach you how to change fonts. Or you want a simpler solution, use app " font changer " which comes with several commonly used fonts

Here is the link. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=759642

Download the apk, install and select the font from Settings --> Display --> Screen Display --> Font Style

Thanks! Was thinking of getting some fonts without rooting it prior.

Just found out that the phone do not have internet data usage unlike iPhone.

Is there a useful widget to download to monitor this?

Reason being I'm tied to 500MB per month, trying not to cap it.

Hrmm I bought ADW Launcher Pro and activated it.

If I plan to use back original launcher how do I revert back?

Sorry for the nooby questions as I'm unfamiliar with Android.

Anyone know where else I can find SGP screen protector around PJ area?

Or am I guessing I have to go Lowyat to search.

Btw have you guys tried removing the stock apps?

There's too many stock apps in which it is irrelevant to me but I'm not sure whether its safe to uninstall the apps though.

Mind sharing what are the apps safe to uninstall?

Is it me or anyone else have frequent calls disconnection?

I tried setting to 3G/Edge but sometimes I feel the line only 1-2 bars.

So is my wireless.
