Jiayu G2S- How to.......

    Hi all,
    Is anybody interested in setting up a "How to...." thread specifically for the Jiayu G2S. I would be :P

    I've recently got one and as can be seen from the previous G2S/G3 thread (later pages) I've had a few queries. The other thread has got quite a lot of information however you have to trawl through all the pages to glean the relevant info.

    I've been Goggling for answers but I've not had much success.

    So if anybody can answer my queries I'd greatly appreciate it.

    Tethering; I can now tether the laptop to the phone for internet connection (using the phone for a hotspot) but is it possible to get internet on the phone using the laptop connection? It was possible with the HTC Wildfire.

    Power off Button; Reboot. Is that just for if/when the phone freezes.Would you use it for any other reason

    Back up; How do you or is it an app from the play store and if so any suggestions


    I'll include my basic info also as people have queried this also.

    Provider: Merimobile
    Rooted by Merimobile Jellybean 4.2.1
    Delivered by DHL ( 3 days when picked up from merimobile)
    €30 Customs import duties

    Excellent phone for the money

    Thanks to Thargor, Bidiots and seannash(review) for their previous advice's.

    Uninstall any apps with Chinese characters in the title Good One and install a keyboard app from the Play Market, Swiftkey is the best but some of the free ones are good too. No instruction manuals, its Android Jellybean so the internet is your instruction manual. Loads of sync/music/photo apps on the Play Market you just have to jump in, seems very complicated at first but it'll be no bother in a couple of weeks.(Thargor)

    Go to Swype website for a free keyboard, it's better than Swiftkey in my opinion(no offence Thar).
    Download Zedge for backgrounds, Handcent for texts, WhatsApp for free texting to other friends with WhatsApp, Wuala for secure file storage, or dropbox for less secure. (Bidiots)

    One sim is for 2G(G) and one is for 3G(W). Goto Sim Management and you can set them up from there although they should both be set to 'on' and work straight away. (Bidiots)

    Thanks

    Good One
