    Eh, anybody else having trouble changing the size you see app icons at?

    I can't even remove an app icon from my screen. The app icons are huge,

    Change the dpi


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭JacksonHeightsOwn


    Ok, I got the icons sorted,

    Another query, the app cabbage ultimate, has anybody got a link to that?

    Also regarding swiping through the screens, is there an option for a continous swipe as opposed to the way it comes to an end?

    Not sure if I've made myself clear there to be honest.

    Gold seems to have appeared on the options for 32gb flat @ Three.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 383 ✭✭surpy


    Yep, it sure is. I used a family members eircom bill to avail of it.

    Cool, their site says it's not included so was wondering

    Not sure if standard Touchwiz allows you to do it but Nova Launcher will allow to do the continuous scroll.

    So, just picked up the flat s6 from emobile. €300 up front 24 month contract. €24 first six months, €39 for the next 18. *unlimited*
    Just out of the box, they had no cases. So afraid to drop it. Anyone recommend any cases? Im thinking a flip one, just for the added protection on the screen.
    So what are the rest of ye doing with yours? I havnt had a smartphone in nearly a year, so am retrieving all my old apps. Great fun. 😊

    Good enough deal.
    but how you get discount for first six months plus 4g?
    emobile shows 39e per month on 3g only for eircom customers.
    Cheers

    Its a deal in store for eircom customers. If you have a family member or close friend who can loan you a bill if you are not an eircom customer you could go in and see what they say.

    My phone is saying 4g so i assume it is. Im gonna do a speedtest now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,115 ✭✭✭Pacifico


    Isn't the data 5GB on that Eircom deal?

    Anyone seen any decent sim free prices for the galaxy 6 edge? Thanks

    That's fair good deal.
    Equates to €20 month for unlimited calls/texts plus 5GB if you consider phone value at €680 on CPW.
    Can this deal be beaten?

    How do you change the dpi?


  • Registered Users Posts: 185 ✭✭Esox Lucias


    yeah it is. sorry, was not trying to mislead. the *unlimited* was meant to be taken with a pinch of salt.

    Just downloaded showbox and then downloaded some episodes of house of cards at home, already making sure i dont waste data i dont have to.

    Dont really know how much data i use per month. Have it tracking on the phone, will see in a months time what im like.

    Best deal i could find overall for the 24months. think it equates to €1145
    overall. 3 was €189 + (55*24) = €1589 and i think vodafone were roughly the same.

    Its just the 300 up front thats a C**t.

    Facebook app won't load, it opens the initial blue screen, then grey screen and then exits back to desktop

    Have cleared cache, force stopped and uninstalled and reinstalled

    Any ideas ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,186 ✭✭✭NewApproach


    Where can I buy one of these brand new, sim free in a shop? Any version 32 or 64gb I don't mind.

    If I'm buying it off contract I don't want it locked to a network, thanks.

    Not having any issues with fb here. I did have a problem searching for apps earlier, that seems to be sorted now.

    I forgot I was a beta Facebook tester. Reverted to the normal app and all good now


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭JacksonHeightsOwn


    lads, am i missing something simple, or in the CONTACTS is there now no more option to click a little box which would only show you contacts that had phone numbers, as opposed to the million and one email addresses in google?


  • Registered Users Posts: 16 james139


    Anybody notice when you load a theme ( i loaded avengers theme ) you get a bit of lag on contacts and settings if you stay stock with nova plus . all animation in developers options set to .5 the phone flys along

    Is your edge screen perfect, any scratches on it when you hold it up to the light like reported on xda forums last week by some t-mobile customers ?

    I'm on a sim only plan and want the new S6, I headed into Meteor on Grafton street around 2pm yesterday, place was dead. I asked for an S6 on prepay they said they won't sell it on Pre Pay for at least 2 weeks. I asked how many have they sold so far, one S6 all day. I said I have €690 here and you won't sell me the phone. I know the whole idea is they want to sign people up to two year contracts but it's ridiculous turning me away and they can't even shift any of the stock they have. Tells me their pricing is all wrong.

    Used to work in cpw before. Selling an expensive phone like that was frowned upon big time. It's worth nothing to cpw or any other network store to sell on prepay. Unless you take out insurance with it, it's a waste of the sales persons time as it won't earn them any commission or meaningfully contribute to their targets. I know nobody here will like to hear that, but it's the reality.

    Lads how do I get rid of the bloody voicemail icon on the top left? There is no clear button and no amount of swiping is shifting it.

    It just disappeared. It was there a good half hour after I'd listened to it. Then went. Hmmmmm
