Android Thread V4 - Got money? Samsung Galaxy S II. No money? ZTE Blade. - Hardware & Software

I'd say ditch the stock LPP icons in the dock, unless you really do like them that much. And if you can make the power control widget completely transparent like your calendar that'd probably fit more. Maybe a less cartoony weather skin as well?

[QUOTE=8====D;31147384]Any way to pay with paypal or a debit card from the market?[/QUOTE]

You can use debit and I am 90% you can use paypal

Regardless of what your carrier advertises it as the E63 isn't a smartphone. On that note. The funniest thing about there being an actual definition is that the iphone doesn't fit all the requirements. Therefore the iphone is a feature phone.

[QUOTE=8====D;31153709]Only gives me a credit card option and it declines my debit card[/QUOTE] Works fine with my visa debit.

[QUOTE=jlj1;31153591]You can use debit and I am 90% you can use paypal[/QUOTE] No paypal. Google keeps wondering why app developers aren't getting as many sales as ones who develop for iOS. Well maybe it's because I don't like paying directly through my credit card.

[QUOTE=Van-man;31154116]Sounds like you're in bigger need of a tinfoil hat than me, take mine :tinfoil:[/QUOTE] Haha you're so funny. Give me one reason why using my credit card directly is better than going through paypal? Paypal allows me to either set it to go on my credit card or to go directly from my bank account. It's quick, easy and secure. And for the record, I've bought apps. I would just prefer that google would adopt paypal support in the future.

because then you don't have to deal with paypal?? [editline]16th July 2011[/editline] paypal literally stole money from me and locked down my account for no reason

Google Checkout is basically the same as Paypal, except they don't steal your money like a bunch of dicks. Well, they do sometimes, but it's hell of a lot less frequent.

And since they're not like a bank that you can stomp into and bitch to a supervisor in person, it's easier for them to screw you over than for a bank. I also had some trouble, and they only set things straight after I threatened to report their asses multiple times Fuck paypal [url]http://www.aboutpaypal.org/[/url]

Looks like it was designed by someone who read HTML for dummies and all the stories have no sources or evidence. Only a first name at the top of badly formatted walls of text. When I have an issue with paypal, I'll stop using it. But they've saved me a hell of a lot of time and money with not so nice ebay sellers who claim your product got "lost". [editline]16th July 2011[/editline] As for google checkout. I've been looking into it but haven't signed up yet.

I don't suggest using PayPal with steam either. So many people have lost their accounts because PayPal have done chargebacks without consent (Which auto-locks your steam account), and they won't re-send the money.

Stop with the paypal scares.. I've got an entire $40 in my paypal and you guys are making me regret having it there..

Just spent some time reading about people losing their steam accounts. Fuck this, no more paypal. I'm not going to get my games taken away.

[QUOTE=EBS-Gamer;31154853]Stop with the paypal scares.. I've got an entire $40 in my paypal and you guys are making me regret having it there..[/QUOTE] You should withdraw your money. There's no proper reason to have any money on a Paypal account anyhow. I sure have never had any. All I do with my Paypal is pay for shit and in that case, it acts as a dummy proxy basically. It charges directly to my debit card.

Nothing more, and I always avoid having much cash on it and i always prefer to pay with other methods (Visa, etc etc.)

There's not really any point in having money in there. Just hides your credit/debit card number. So how do you guys like the new market? I think it's not much of an upgrade and still needs a lot of work.

I still don't have the new Market.

[QUOTE=nikomo;31156708]I still don't have the new Market.[/QUOTE] Same here, guess it's only for people in countries with English as the main language.
