Hello there, friends - some of you may know me, some of you won't. I'm Nik, AndroidNZ contributor and long-time lurker, thought I'd finally get around to posting. Got my blue GSIII from Warehouse Stationery on Friday - Seemed like an age to wait for the blue over the white, but having seen the white in person, I really wasn't a fan. Well worth the wait, as it happens, as the blue is more of a slate grey with a metallic purple tinge, beautiful. Completely put to rest my concerns over the lack of a black option.
Curiously, has also caught the eye of the girlfriend, who was previously coveting a One X (In any colour but white) to replace her ageing Nexus One.
tyagi: I'm not sure whether I've accidentally removed/deleted an icon during my initial configuration of my Telecom S3, but I can't seem to find an App icon which just opens a Web browser!
On previous versions of Android, I've had a "Browser" icon and I"ve seen some S3 screenshots which have an "Internet" icon. However, I can't find anything on mine. I do have some Telecom-specific icons such as "Y!Tworld" which opens a browser and takes you to the Telecom/Yahoo homepage, but I don't want this. I just want to be able to pop open a browser on a blank page.
I've downloaded the Chrome beta app and this works just fine, but I'd like to use the default Samsung Android browser. Any idea where to find the App icon (it's not in the Apps/Widgets list as far as I can see).
The Y!Tworld icon is the browser, Telecom have shamefully changed the icon to their atrocious, tacky branding. They did the same to both the i9000T and the i9100T, it blew me away when I first saw it. Only NZ carrier to do so, too, as 2D & Voda have been nice enough to let their GSII & GSIIIs escape with very minor, reversible customisations. It makes me cringe to think that, at some point, software updates have been delayed because some poor sod has to change the browser icon to Yahoo!Tworld.
I really wish they'd stop doing that.
