You can get a refurbished s7 for around £150, which might end up actually being your phone that was nicked. As little as is humanly possible, hence why I'm willing to get an older and shitter phone. I've had a bunch of unexpected expenses this month and this is really not what I needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 My iPhone battery has had it. I'm not surprised as I've had the phone at least 4 years but it's done. It goes from 100% to 1% just like that, and actually decreases whilst it's charging!!! At the moment it ran out whilst I was out and has been charging 2 hours and still hasn't come back on. What are my options here? Can't really afford a new phone, and Apple the absolute jokers quoted me £169 as the screen is cracked as well. I've tried putting it in a bowl of rice as well and that didn't work. Is it easy to change the battery yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 Won't Apple change the battery for you? I got a battery change six months ago and it cost me £49. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something about a suction device that takes it off (kennethwilliams.jpg) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted January 13, 2020 Moderators Share Posted January 13, 2020 Just get another SIM that fits in the bloody phone. Your network will give it to you for free; you can't get cheaper than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Red Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 is your sim too small or too big? If it's too small you can get an adapter for pennies at Carphone Warehouse (or amazon I'm sure) if it's too large contact your provider and they'll send you a replacement sim of the correct size.

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted February 7, 2020 Moderators Share Posted February 7, 2020 Does anyone have any advice on 3rd party YouTube apps? Are there any good ones? The official YouTube app is getting increasingly unusable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Through clumsiness I've accidentally deleted an app from my Android phone - there's a space on my home screen where an icon used to be - and I can't for the life of me figure out what it was. It's driving me mad. Is there an activity log I can view somewhere, somehow? I've checked the full list of apps in case it only had its shortcut removed, but there's nothing interesting there that isn't still on the home screen. Therefore, whatever it was has definitely been uninstalled. To complicate matters, it might not even have been an app but rather a webpage shortcut. Who knows. But if that's the case I imagine it'll be even harder to trace. It'd be easy to say I won't miss something I don't remember having, but it must've been useful as my home screen's quite tightly curated, contrary to the impression given here...

Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted April 20, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted April 20, 2022 I've been using my trusted Galaxy S7 for about 5 or 6 years now. The phone is really starting to slow down and from what I understand, its no longer receiving updates. I'm totally out of the loop and would rather not spend several hundred quid on a new phone. Is the S10 worth buying in 2022 or should I be lookin for something newer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Samsung's A range is mid-price and good performance, skimping on things like a plastic case and dropping chips like NFC. So it depends what you want from a phone.

RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Upgraded from an iPhone 7 to the iPhone 11 as a birthday treat to myself in the week, still getting to grips on it but impressed so far. The only nitpicks I have are the address bar on the web browser being at the bottom of the screen, not having a home button and having to get used to holding the screen to swipe off apps and the fact that I had to buy a USB-C plug separate as Apple don’t provide plugs for their newer model phones these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of those Apple things that's going to cross the aisle and become standard isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives you the option to move it to the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
