1. Transfer files, you need to install the drivers via kies, then just plug. Do not run kies after that, because you only need drivers. S2 will be like a thumbdrive.

2. The phone cannot consume the battery, it has no mouth or digestive system. But in terms of depleting the battery's charge, I would say it really depends on your usage. For me 1 day I can get by probably until 50%.

You can use any file explorer and check your DCIM folder for camera pictures.

If its empty, probably means its gone.

Also, need recommendation on power saving lock screens and wallpapers... i want to make my phone as power efficient as possible...

I have done the following:

1. Off mobile data (3G, EDGE, GPRS etc)
2. Off wireless
3. Screen brightness set to 20%
4. Off GPS
5. Off Bluetooth
6. No active apps

Next steps
1. Power saving wallpaper and lock screen.

Anything else i can do?

You turn off so many things, its as good as a dumbphone with a big screen :s

But you can use a totally black wallpaper. Maybe turn off the phone totally if not in use if you're that particular about power. lol

exactly! duno why that noob never sync to google.
after using kies to export all contacts, there is one prob.
each contact has seperate vcf file. means it generate 200+ vcf files.
big prob cause google contact website only can upload one by one.

so i google and found a solution wana share.

1. copy all vcf file into folder and rename to "contacts", then move folder to C:\
2. press window + R
3. type "CMD" then press ok
4. type "cd C:\contacts" then enter
5. type "copy *.vcf all.vcf" then enter

tada, you will have a file called "all.vcf"
upload this to google contact and all contacts will be saved.

very good tips for new android users.
TS why not put this in front page, seems useful
original link where i learn this is here

Yes, I did this before as well, not necessary if you're creating vcf from phone.

You don't need an app for wallpaper, just a black picture is enough.

For lockscreen, maybe check out apps like spareparts or something to change it.

I forgot how i did it but my lockscreen is black.


Added on March 23, 2012, 3:48 pmI think I changed it by using golocker, then I uninstalled golocker and it became black.


Added on March 23, 2012, 3:49 pmOh wait,
setting -> display -> screen display

lol


Added on March 23, 2012, 3:50 pmJust find a black picture and put inside ur phone's gallery.

I think the forum is screwing with me.
I saw a post showing a mock up on the S3 that was a joining of the S2 and the wifi together in white.

No idea where that went to now.

Edit: rofl, it was on 22nd, but showed up on the last on my list for some weird reason.

Hmm, was wondering if there's any stylus for s2, where the tip is like S-Pen.. Not those big-fat-head type..

Can it work with a non-capacitive tipped stylus?
Because usually those need to have built in digitizer for the pen to work.

Thats not very good for your ears, get isolated, noise cancelling or some other -db headphones instead of that.

The S-pen tip most likely won't work, it itself isn't capacitive.

S2 with digi is 9100G, and not 9100. Read up on it and make your own conclusions.
