Debuzzing in the UK?

2009-06-10 Thread Dave Smith
Hi all,

It's been a while since I looked at getting the buzz on my FreeRunner 
fixed up, after having no luck finding anyone with the right equipment 
to be able to perform it amongst local friends and contacts, so I 
figured I'd throw a message out on here to see if anyone can point me in 
the direction of anyone in the United Kingdom who has the tools, time, 
and inclination to perform the fix for me. :)

Has anyone any experience with getting someone in this area performing 
the fix?

Thanks in advance,

Dave

Crackly Calls and Battery Tips!

2008-12-07 Thread Dave Smith
Hello folks,

Just a few questions really to kick start me being on this list. :-)

I received my FreeRunner about a week or so ago and have just about got 
around to playing with it a bit more and actually using it. It's running 
FDOM based on recommendations, and picked up my Orange SIM and contacts 
without difficulty.

A few issues I have had though:

1) Recipients of phone calls consistently seem to report a buzz / 
crackling during calls made from the FreeRunner. Apparently the buzz is 
particularly prevelant when I stop speaking, whilst I'm speaking the 
line seems to be clear enough - anyone suffered a similar issue and know 
/ suspect it's cause?

2) Battery Life. I was warned by people before getting the phone that 
battery life wasn't great as of yet, and as I understand from what I 
have it is a fairly high priority. However, what do you folks do to 
maximise life out of your battery?
The reason I ask is that with everything (bar GSM) turned off, and the 
phone mostly locked / on standby (30 second timeout for standby and 
blank screen are set up at the moment) I am struggling to get even 12 
hours life out of it.
To give an example from today, where I didn't get chance to glance at 
the phone whilst at work, it went from being fully charged at 08:00 (I 
took it off charge from the Desktop at that point) to being powered down 
and without the juice to startup at 16:30.
So, what do you all do to get the most out of it, and what sort of life 
do you get?

Whilst I can live with the battery as a work in progress, the 
crackliness would be interesting to find out if it's just my unit 
suffering, as it does make using it as my primary phone a little difficult!

Thanks in advance,

Dave
