Wanam has both TW and Apex launchers standard so you can choose. I assume you can add Trebuchet if you want as well.

Slingshot: Does anyone else have issues with the touch screen after unlocking? Mine doesn't register me putting in my unlock pattern properly, it acts like I've taken my finger off it. Wondering if this is common or if mines faulty.

Cheers,
Ben

Mines does that too, at random times. If it happens, make it sleep with the power button, then unsleep and try again, usually fixes it. Bit of a hassle though

Yeah I've found that too, its just annoying and it's becoming more common for me.

Yeah, factory reset also seems to solve it, but you lose everything.

Second option: sell it, buy a Galaxy S III, and join some of us in the new thread

...Have a look on TradeMe for the genuine Samsung 2000mAh one that comes with the back to match.

... This is what you want but these guys are out of stock last time I checked

Garrrr! Thanks.

I foolishly went and did my own shopping trying to find this extended battery, returned to post my discoveries, and then discovered that you had actually included a link!
I toddled off to the Adriatica site and found the product for less than 3rd party one i'd found anyway!

Thanks again, i'm off to order.

edit: Supplier emailed me back within a couple of minutes of my order to let me know they were out of stock, and whilst the expected delivery date was mid-june, it might not be entirely reliable. They asked if I still wanted to process the order or go elsewhere. Impressed with the level of communication, i happily told them I would wait.

There is an app on XDA to use it, I tried it for a while but IMHO Beats is crap, so I took it off.

Has anyone tried S Voice on their S2 phone yet?
Just installing Wanam version version ATM. He says that he has a work around the server problem others are having. Will post a result latter after a play

Yes I have tried it, when it works, it's amazing, when it doesn't it's a PITA. Can't see using it much.

anyone using CM9? If so, what kernels is everyone using? Just upgraded to ICS after CM7 and Siyah. But I see not many people using Siyah but Abyss now?

Yeah, NEAK 2.05 isn't too bad either, but Abyss is just amazing IMO.

How do I change the dock icons/programs on default wanamlite 10.7 launcher. I have tried long pressing the icon but that just gives me a trash icon.

Not sure what the default launcher actually is. It has 4 icons 1 of which is apps, other is phone, messaging and I can't recall the last. Sorry for the vaguery.

It's TWlauncher and I don't think you can change the icons in the dock.
Best if you install Apex or Nova if you want to customise more and change the dock

Ok thanks very much.
Which do you recommend. I actually like the SPB 3D Launcher myself.
