Worth doing ?
I have a question about my S2....If i log on here or other forums via the phone and try and post, the keyboard takes up 97% of the screen and i can not see what i am writing...
Looked through the settings and can not find anything to resolve this.....Anyone know how to resolve this?

pimmo,
i depends on what you want to do? unsigned software, remove all my vodafone bloatware, overclock the cpu, use different kernels and roms. you can root it and keep the stock samsung software like i have done. Invaidates the warranty but you can unroot it and reset the rom changes counter before you need to send it back if it goes **** up.

Impressions so far are good .. any suggestions for free apps ?
I've used quite a few but they suck .. (I mean replacements for the market place)

erm......it does i have had it running. i assume it was darky's. looks a bit like the oxygen rom i have on the htc desire. i stand to be corrected though.
check http://www.darkyrom.com/community/in...e-releases.68/
N.B. ****having read a bit more the rom can look like oxygen or samsung stock, dependant on which launcher you choose at start up****

Can't decide on the best browser, Opera mini is good but doesn't play flash videos, std browser is ok, plays flash, but is missing some of better user features of Opera. Might give Skyfire another go.
Swype is already installed and is awesome
As a p.s., I've spent the last 2 odd years rooting and installing custom roms on a number of phones to get better UI's and speed them up, this is the first phone I've had where I don't think that's necessary......yet..
Second good alternative is Mobilism Market or Black Mart...
