[QUOTE=demoguy08;32127534]There is apparently a "keyboard slider case" for iPhone 4

I WANT THIS FOR MY S2!!!! It's a nice phone, yeah, but I spend a lot of time typing shit and a keyboard would be great.. so I got this idea of [url=http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mini-Bluetooth-Keyboard-Samsung-Galaxy-S2-II-i9100-/130570954751?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1e66a2a7ff]buying this keyboard[/url] and a flip cover case, and combining them somehow. Not as pretty but it'll do the job until someone releases a slide case for the S2.

Am I being an idiot for wanting this? The S2 looks great but I'm more of a practicality guy than looks guy[/QUOTE]

I was thinking exactly this. And then you could buy a slim gamepad attachment and interchange them.

Only if...

Not in the least. After living with this TBolt, I know the terrors of touch-screen only typing. It's my first phone without a hardware keyboard. And judging by the looks of that picture, I'd think a keyboard case would fit a GS2 easily without being to awkward.

I mean, the setup in that pic looks outrageously weird but that's probably because of the way the iPhone is built, and considering the iPhone 4 is impressively thin, it probably looks worse than it actually feels. I'd love to see an attachment like this for...every phone known to man :v:.

I want a keyboard case with a kickstand

[redBadger]

If it wasn't for apple being massive dicks lately, I'd consider it.

Guys, what does the red battery with an X on it mean?

[lorde banana]

a quick search says it may be indicating water damage

[editline]5th September 2011[/editline]

wait on the battery itself or on the phone

[editline]5th September 2011[/editline]

if on the battery itself then I believe it means it's water damaged

[VistaPOWA]

Uhm, the red X went away when I plugged in the phone to my computer.

[LooperNor]

Did you consider the fact that it might have just been low on battery?

The charge meter was showing me a "charging from ~50% charge" animation.

Is it just my phone or does it take ages to charge your Galaxy S2?

[jlj1]

Do we have any information about the new kindle other than it is android and will be using amazon's services?

[QUOTE=Jah Mason;32136347]Is it just my phone or does it take ages to charge your Galaxy S2?[/QUOTE]
Charging off a computer will take a while, charging on A/C adapters is extremely fast at first, but eventually the last 20 percent take a while longer.

A MAN CAN DREAM[/QUOTE]Holy shit.
It actually also launches proper Honeycomb UI for the tablet mode?
I think that's not Gingerbread, but Ice Cream Sandwich.

[FlashFireSix]

Ah crap, we started having money problems and I can't get a Desire Z anymore because dad wants to buy off amazon and its £300 off amazon

Any other smartphones with a [B]Physical Keyboard?[/B] I'll drop the physical keyboard if somebody can find me a cheap enough one that doesn't suck ass (if all else fails I'm going for the blade)

[GunTotingBastar]

A friend wants an android phone for about 300 euros. Which one should I recommend him?
Right now we're thinking about the Nexus S. It fits his price range, has good community-support and all that.

Milestone 3, or the hordes of qwerty samsung phones.

[Sgt-NiallR]

I have a desire, and when I go to input my passcode, the keypad is squashed up against the top, with only 1,2,4,5,7 and 8 visible, so I can't get into it.

Anyone know what I can do to get rid of it? I can't even turn it off, to restart it.

[Dav0r]

Lol sorry guys, this is pretty good. Better than my blade for sure.

[VistaPOWA]

Did you put a custom ROM on it?
It boosts the performance by lightyears.

[Dav0r]

No, but it hasn't force closed yet :wink:
