Check you're not running an app that prevents screen dim.
On the screen again...the most annoying thing about it (apart from the battery life) is that the whole screen remains bright when you're using it as a desk clock at night, making it hard to sleep.
During setup ive synced everyone who has their mobile number on facebook to my phone book. Does anyone know how to get rid of this as theres a lot of peoples numbers i dont want. I can't find a delete option anywhere.
Been lurking and reading this thread for some time!
My Voda early (70day) upgrade has finally come up! Looks like i've gotta wait for the end of my Voda contract tho.
Early upgrade will cost me £140 for the phone to keep my current contract (18months, £35/m, 300min, 500MB, unlimited txt)
They were not interested in haggling at all. Happy to give me a PAC code and rubbished T mobile network service.
I guess i've gotta wait for the contract to end and go elsewhere.
Any suggestions / ideas?
Cheers
Ouch I came from Orange to Voda and got the handset free on the exact same deal + 750mb data.... + 600mins
**Edit**
Woops just saw you said early upgrade.
Finally got mine now and I love it
Very fast and quick to setup, I'm still at work but I will have a proper play later on but even installing the latest updates via the Wi-Fi it's extremely quick, overall so far - very impressed I've also been reading about the battery so I am going to use it later until their is 5% charge left and then give it a proper charge and follow the cycles to make sure I get the most out of it.
It's feels very well built and the touch screen to me feels even better than the iPhone! The only one complaint I have got so far is how fiddly it is to get the battery cover back onto the phone. I was worried to start with incase I would break the cover trying to do it but I seem to have got used to it now and it looks like I am not the only one who had difficulty trying to get the cover back on (from looking at review videos over on YouTube).

Well I ordered mine yesterday, should be with me on Monday
Biggles: Voda seem to have them stocked up, they ran out Thursday evening but had them back in by Friday afternoon.
Just ordered one:
£30/month, 18 month contract, 300 mins, unlimited texts, 3GB data, free phone. Direct from T-mobile.
£540 cost of ownership so pretty good deal there I reckon. Been told end of the week but I'm not gonna hold my breath!
Course. Here's a screenshot to make it more obvious:
Top: SwitchPro (paid)
Clock: Tajm (Free)
Middle: Normal shortcuts
Bottom: LauncherPro Plus (paid)
Bottom icons: http://www.droid-den.com/android-guides/android-tallmin-icon-set

The only reason I've really paid for LauncherPro Plus is so you can change the size of widgets: I'm using 6 columns (hence the 6 close icons), and SwitchPro is stretched to the width instead of being too narrow. I also use the Plus widgets, but that was the original reason.
I'm waiting for mine T-Mob direct as well, can I expect the end of the week also??
