Work got me a new fucking cell phone and all I can say is how the hell does it work?. Fucking Sucksung Galaxy S2. I am thinking about shashing the thing with my biggest ball pein hammer. No manual, I dont have a know it all teenager at home anymore to show me how to use it and its sooooooooo bloddy enormous I refuse to carry it without a man bag. Whats android?
Had a blackbery for the last 5 years and it did everything I could ever want. All I want is a phone, txt and email.

I thought this was going to be a kinky thread.
I just assumed it was some fancy new app.
Now Im thinking.
A pulsating engorged vagina, that throbs when you rub your cock on the touch screen.
could have some sound effects, a bit of vibration.
Oh yeah, fuck that phone, Fuck it hard, fuck it fast.

Bloody brilliant smart phone. Brought one myself recently. Use it as sat nav, dash cam, stream music via bluetooth to the car stereo, browsing the net, online banking, thai translation, camera, messaging, gaming ( just got GTA III :D ), storing porn, storing docs to share on home network, streaming vids to TV via DLNA, identifying planets & constellations, tracking the missus, identifying music I don't know, etc, etc.
Two accessories worth getting are:
Samsung Galaxy S2 Vehicle Dock (http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/genuine-samsung-galaxy-s2-i9100-vehicle-dock-p28967.htm). You can set cell to auto start dash cam, sat nav, music streaming, etc when you put it in the dock.
Samsung Extended Battery Kit (http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/genuine-samsung-extended-battery-kit-for-galaxy-s2-2000mah-eb-k1a2ebegstd-p31732.htm). Adds fuck all to the size. Actually makes it feel more solid and balanced to hold, plus extra batt life.

Sums up my act regarding a cell-phone.
Can I send/receive texts with it? - Yes
Can I phone people/receive calls from the m with it? Yes.
Any other feature is a freakin' waste of time, a bit like giving Steven Hawkings a pair of ice-skate...

So how do you read the manual if you don't know how to use the phone.
Before you scoff you young whippersnapper, there are a lot of people around who remember when black and white tv's were a novelty and mobile phones have been around for only a fraction of their lives. Phone? I'll give you phone. Woody woody woody!

You shouldn't need to use the manual, Android is pretty much self explanatory. Just touch the icon for the item you want to open, and push the back button if you want to go back. Couldn't be simpler.

Flying a plane is simple too for people that know how to do it, do you think you could just jump in a plane and fly it?

We humans have brains that tend to be good at problem solving when applying logical and rational thought. With how simple modern technology is to use compared to old 80's command line interface computers it should be a piece of cake.
Plus you even have loads of youtube videos on how to use such a phone, and you can even just get the manual online from the manufacturers website. If you can be on KB it should be of no issue, it tends to be a defeatist attitude rather than an old dog not being able to learn new tricks.

Dude you grew up with this technology. You're being closed minded and igorant if you expect people who didn't to be able to understand it like you do.
I've spent the last 5 years trying to teach my dad how to use internet explorer and google, and he's only just coming to grips with the basics. It doesn't even occur to him to google something that he doesn't know the answer to, because for his whole life that's not how it's been done.

The first time I had ever used Android was with my mates Galaxy S. He was driving and he wanted me to send a txt and then turn on the GPS navigation. It took me about 1 minute to figure it out without any help from him, and after playing with the phone for about 5 minutes I had a good idea about how to use Android.
Since the phone only has 1 main button (the back button), and everything else is controlled by putting your finger on the thing you want to open, or moving the finger to scroll up or down, it doesn't take a lot of skill to use it. The more advanced features do take a bit more time to get the hang of, and I still don't know how to use every feature of my phone (like how to configure a proxy) and I only learnt a few weeks ago about how to setup the APNs.
I'm not exactly a computer whiz either, I'm still pretty much a complete n00b with these things.

My parents who are in their 60s seem to have managed fine on their own. And since in the OP it was stated the phone was for work I assume he is under 65. Therefore no problem, just typical angry old dude who CBF'd.

No one mentioned landing it, Just flying it.
However my thoughts are much the same

Kind of like my Motorcycle stunt career....
A crash landing is still a landing.

No its not, I have no starting point, the only point and click device I am really good with shoots a 75 cal round ball.
I can also fly a plane, quite well actually.
Why then do I only get emails at work on the thing? My old Blackberry got them to me everywhere. Is this thing connecting to the server wireless and not via G3?

Usually it isn't automatically setup as it costs extra to send over 4G network. Though I would have thought your work would have set that up before handing you the phone?

You may need to configure the APNs to connect via 3G, if you are using the phone on a different phone network than it has been configured for. You can find out how to do this on Google.
To get emails to work on the phone you can either download a third party email client (similar to Microsoft Outlook Express) or you can use the web based email client (like hotmail.com or gmail.com). To do this open the "browser" which is your web browser.
Do you have a Gmail account? Android is designed to sync with your Google account (Gmail, Youtube etc), so you can enter your Google account user name and password, then your phone will notify you each time you receive a new email (provided you have mobile data network connections enabled, or wifi).

Easy, buy an iPhone 4S and put the SIM in it and put the Shitsung in your drawer. I purchased a 4S last week as an upgrade from my 3GS.

Eeeeew Apple! That's nasty man.
Everyone knows Apple only produces mediocre products and then puts an Apple logo on it, then it sells for double what it should sell for.
