Does anyone play the iMobster game?


I started playing it last week, haven't spent much time on it though.

Android sales to soar... Steve Jobs Reiterates: “Folks who want porn can buy an Android phone”

Apple are rumoured to be trying buy ARM according to this. Surely that would be blocked by the EU?


Apple are just getting ridiculous, they have always been a bit controversial on some issues but normally people overlook them, but it's becoming more and more aparent to people who were to naive to notice before that Apple are a pretty manipulative and unethical company. Who are they to say that people aren't allowed to look at porn, thats not for them to decide. They should some kind of cap on the phone that only lets over 18s view it. Also, doesn't that break the First Amendment?
You can watch porn on iPhone... Just it has to be streamed from a website and not an app. Also, they've poo pooed the ARM rumours.

yeah I realise that, but I still disagree with them banning porn apps from the appstore, on the same grounds that I disagree with them banning any of their apps...

I don't care tbh. I don't own an Apple product, so they may do as they please! :biggrin:

I don't own an Apple product either so it doesn't affect me. I'm just disagreeing with the way that Apple runs their business, I disagree with pretty much everything they do tbh...
Anyway to clear/reset the Hero? I've let thousands of messages build up and they won't delete :frown:

What do you mean they 'won't delete'? I leave it till I have a build up of 1000 messages per person in my inbox, then delete it.. takes 20 minutes - half an hour but does it job.

I knew it wasn't 2.1; thought there may have been the slightest possibility it was 1.6 so then at least I could get the Google Nav.. but oh well!

Got a HTC Desire last week. Coming from a HD2 with Windows Mobile, Android 2.1 is quite breathtaking.
Hi, I hope someone on here can help me - I have a HTC Android and it says on my phone the model is "T-Mobile G2 Touch".

Spoiler


I'm having trouble with my SD card, I keep getting the notification "Preparing SD card, checking for errors", and I've taken the card out and blown on it and it's not scratched or damaged at all.
I'm fairly OK with computers but phones are new territory. I've plugged my phone into my laptop with the SD card in it, and a new drive appeared but apparently there was no disk in it. So I Googled, downloaded and installed HTC Sync, which didn't help at all.
All the official sites ask what my model is (Hero, Diamond etc) and none of them say G2 Touch (it must have another name?) so they're kinda useless.
And the amateur sites I've searched say that this message means the card is corrupted but I don't have an alternative way of checking this, and they suggest to "reformat your SD card" but I have no idea where to begin with that, since I can't open the card to scan for garbled files!
I went to the T-Mobile shop today and the woman said to "update your software" and that should help. But as I said before, I don't know what model it is to do this and argh argh argh.
I really appreciate any replies I get to this, I am getting dangerously close to insanity :angry:

(The most promising/simple solution I found is to "plug the phone in storage mode and to make a scandisk of the micro SD" but I don't know how to put it in storage mode)

The T-Mobile G2 Touch is a rebrand of the HTC Hero

It's a HTC Hero. :smile:

Plug it in to your PC, drag down the notification bar (at top with time/date etc), select USB connected > Mount.

you could try buying a memory card reader for your pc, if it reads the card, then just reformat it and your good to go, if the phone doesnt recognise it after this then theres something wrong with the phone

if it doesnt, then its probably a problem with the card

p.s. theres known problems with that phone, where the 3g doesnt work have a read here if your interested http://support.t-mobile.co.uk/discussions/index?page=forums&forum=80103656d92cf90123e15db75a006088

Really appreciate the help everyone :smile:

Now I know it's a Hero (:cool:) I have searched but found no new software for it, so that rules that out.
Also I don't have the 'USB connected' thing on my notifications bar, would that be part of the problem? My computer still recognises a drive but no disk in that drive. When I go to settings, the SD card is 'unavailable' and the option to 'unmount SD card' is greyed out, but when I took the card out, the phone was all "oh no wai you can't do that, unmount your card safely". So it recognises it's there, but it won't read off it?

Also I don't reeeally want to have to buy a microSD card reader... But thanks for the link to T-Mobile, I've searched that too but to no avail... Bloomin' phone :frown:
