    Some people have complained about Chinese characters showing up in the Messages and Phone apps when a contact is selected. This post tells you how to remove those characters.

    -----------

    The problem stems from the Contact Manager. You'll need to change the settings from there.

    1) Make sure you're running ContactManager V2.4.321+. If not, you can update it by opening the Contacts app and then going to Settings - About and hitting Upgrade.

    2) Now go to 'More features and settings' from the menu button. Select 'Location', then deselect 'Show operator information' and 'Display number's location'.

    Your contacts should now show up without any Chinese characters.

                          Its OK... That really means it does some jobs well, others alright and doesn't do some at all. It won't run YouTube videos and won't run Skype, which are rather important to me. Its screen and video is great as is the sound but the Bluetooth is poor. Its screen locks occasionally even during a call which means you can't end a call without stripping the battery. The screen sensitivity is a little poor which will disappoint the texters amongst us. However, on a plus......its $150.

                            if someone fix the touchscreen response and erase all chinese stuff, this will be a great phone. I am sure that the touchscreen can be fixed because is the same hardware than other phones with better response. it must be just an android software fix.
