Galaxy S2 Comments

I ordered a Galaxy S2 and it eventually arrived. It’s pretty nice, but there are a few annoying things with it that I wish I could change

  • It vibrates when it’s fully charged and will wake you up at 3am
  • It’s length of vibration is too long for notification messages.
  • There’s only “silent” or “vibrate”. I have to turn vibrate off in the menu to have silent. I’d like vibrate > silent > noise
  • There’s no notification LED. Wtf?
  • The home screen is Screen 1, at the far left. It should wrap around to screen 7 when I move to the left, but it doesn’t.

Just little niggles, other than that it’s a good phone and I’m enjoying it a lot

update:
Having used it for about a month now, and flashed new firmware and got a new launcher, i can say this is a great phone. Using launcher pro I have the home screens how i want, and the new firmware has stopped the random battery drain issues with wifi sharing. Now I am just waiting for 2.3.4

 

Trading Gold and Silver

Well, looks like the silver retrace has completed. I hope. Maybe I’ll trade out of my gold and into some silver and get it while it’s cheap. Not sure how long JPM can keep this up. Probably eternity, I’m sure they have friends in the right places.

I get most of my gold and silver at Bullionvault. It’s like buying it physically, but stored in a vault in a choice of locations.
