MISSING APPS...I had this phone for a month now and it was working fine just until this morning that i cant find my games folder with all the games I downloaded from play store. Tried to check it in play store since I might have uninstalled them mistakenly but it says it is still installed but really can't find the entire folder I hope some one can help..

    @ Noypi

    Thanks for the vote. How do I send you details so you can ask me something via FB as you mentioned?? I didn't get an account here!! Either way, I don't mind sharing info like I been doing to others that simply ask IF I happen to know. Or you can simply keep asking here like you and others have been doing. No big deal for me. With any luck, someone else with better info than what I have would also do the lot of us a "solid" and share it.

    But as it turns out, I'm biased towards this phone because it has been working out great so far for me. So I just decided to share what all happened to me just the same as others did. You and others are posting biased info because something not so great happened to you (according to your posts.... NOT some poke or joke towards you / others). Next thing I know, people just kept on asking. Ok....So I kept on posting!! hahahahaha

    I happen to be an article and game guide writer with quite a tech background. NO, this is NOT some paying gig for me here. Again, I was just sharing what all happen to me with this phone. But as a result, things tend to get lengthy and rather detailed!!

    I'll never claim to "know it all" but I do know a thing or 6 here and there to be able to get by!! That usually works!! XD

          @ pLyx

          You're mostly right. There WAS an option for moving things. But that only worked on some devices. It depended on the device having 2 storages (phone and internal). The apps would be sent to the opposite of the default install location and not a SD card at all. The AFP doesn't have the 2 storages. IF I remember correctly, there was some sorta stop to moving apps to SD cards. I can't even remember why or when!! But that IS the reason why many "mover" apps don't work properly (as seen in the Reviews section of the Play Store for so many "mover" apps) or at all on so many different devices. Previously, on a Galaxy Mini (Android 2.2), I was using App2SD Pro and it worked great. But with something like that, I have no idea if it would work on anything these days like it did on that phone. The downside to "mover" apps is that if the memory card fails or goes "vanishing act" (we ALL know "vanishing acts" can happen), your apps go with it.


          @ Putongbangus AND pLyx

          Try YAATA.

          I just tried it, literally just now, and the edit area grows (to a certain extent) with the message being created instead of 2 puny lines. It's got a lot of features, some included, some you have to pay for IF you want them. But sure enough, it's got the bigger/growing text editing area. It's still no comparison to the messaging edit area of something like the stock Froyo messaging app, but it's working nicely so far. Tried it with voice to text and had no problems. Then again, I have no accent that can be easily detected. That always helps!!

          YAATA seems to have problems with MMS. But since I don't use or care about MMS, that was no bother for me. Unfortunately, not everyone can say the same so you might want to try another messaging app if that's going to be a problem for you.

          Just don't forget to set any messaging app you try as the default first. YAATA displays the option to set it as the default during the first run of it and stays there until you do set it as the default (one tap done). Ok, that makes changing the default vastly quicker and easier!!

                @ BobP

                If anything, you'd have to get an app that can work with the SD card. Not much of any app can do that properly is the bad news. So you'll have some searching and testing to do. The good news is that USER files can be moved quite easily in a variety of ways.


                @ Putongbangus

                You can try other messaging apps. I also don't overly appreciate that 2 puny lines setup for messaging. I just didn't get the chance to try out other messaging apps as of yet!! So it looks like both of us are on the search for a new messaging app that isn't so puny!! XD I did look into some other messaging apps but there were no signs (in the pics / videos) of the message window growing with the message instead of scrolling. That's the problem with the search. Sure, they ALL advertise how great their messaging app is, but completely overlooked this simple detail so far.


                @ Crimson08

                I've had no problems with the camera quality on both sides of it. The front cam worked out nicely when I tried it in Skype. You'd most likely want to install a camera app to have some better fun with it (more features). You still have the concerns of lighting conditions and shakey hands. Otherwise, the cams worked out very nicely for me.

                This phone is using the RLS speaker system (Really Loud Sound). I have the speaker face down on my table and can hear it clear across the next room over (that's no puny distance mind you)!! I was only using the standard music player. So a music player app with a better equalizer should give better sound quality. No problems on the sound quality on calls / video calls other that typical things (poor signals and the such).


                @ Kirara xD

                Always the first question......Which one can you WILLINGLY afford? NO, that's not a joke towards your wallet.... it's something you REALLY should ask yourself FIRST. Right after you answer that question.... Which one are you convinced has better specs to suit YOU? Last question..... Which one is readily available to you? I don't know about the availability of the MI 4. I DO know the AFP can get a bit tricky on the timing to get one. It has been that way so far. Once you answer these questions (NO, don't post the answers!! No need for that!! ), there ya go!!

                The ^questions explained (just in case anyone is wondering):

                No point in missing a diner or 6 just to have a "fancy pants" phone.

                You can always save money for the other phone IF you like the other phone's specs better.

                No point in going after a phone that might not be there. You'd be amazed sometimes. This has happened to me on several dozen occasions. I could swing the money for it. I LIKED the specs...... oops.... the phone in question is no where to be found. This usually results in a LOT of swearing, cursing, screaming, and various objects being "aerodynamics tested"!! XD

For next charges and so on, charge it when it is 40% low and stop charging when it reaches 80%. Charge it 100% once a month. This is the proper care of Lithium Ion Battery. However, if you have to go outside like out of town, appointment, ride in a bus - make it full charge. There is no law prohibiting to charge your phone only to 80% full hehehe.
