So here's the story I got given a iPhone 3GS 16 giggles for free last year from my mate. It worked perfect lol apart from the sleep button was a bit temperamental and the rear cover was scraped with a couple of splits and a load of dust between the front screen and LCD which made the front screen come away from the frame and the rubber seal was damaged.

Last month I thought **** it new back case so set about that and all was good and back working even the sleep button was sorted. Then 3 weeks ago I thought I'll get the new frame that would cure the damaged seal and after swapping over the home button and earpiece I thought **** it new front screen so I stuck it to the frame with the adhesive stickers and fitted all back together and it was like new.

Last week the top of the front screen popped up. It hadn't stuck for some reason so new sticky pads and same happened again :cry: the bottom was stuck solid so tonight I was taking it off again to put a new sticky pad at the bottom and super glue the top and upon using my suction cup the screen cracked lol

They are phones for god's sake, ok they can interweb a bit, but they can't exactly make lame people walk, or cure lepers......they are just a phone... My daughter (13) is sneaking hers up to bed & spending hours on facebucket..so she has not got enough sleep, so i think they are the work of a dark force... I'm going to get a strongbox to put it in.

Yes, i was a teenager, but i had things like part time jobs, & evening jobs, so i was usually really tired..

This daughter was busted by the missus the other night at 2.30am, when she spent 20 mins trying to sneak downstairs to put the tv on..this is something that has been happening recently, we've found her on the settee under a throw with her school uniform on & and the telly on subtitles only, and she was claiming that she had just got up early...

i agree too, my lady just got the S2 and now i also want one, also, Android is freeware so you can change what you like and do what you like and are not dictated to by Apple as to what you are allowed to do, lets face it, it took ages for bluetooth and a light to be implemented onto the iFollow, get a decent bit of kit (also the new iPhone 4s is apparently like comparing a Fiesta 1.3 to a 1.2, sod all difference apart from one has a light now) ooooo whatever next, maybe the 5 will even be able to include a user removable battery! PMSL



lol I meant it wasn't about (or readily available) when I was at secondary school in 93-98. lol
the computers at my school all had green screens, so unless you wanted to photoshop a poddington pea onto a nice green field . mind you games back then were all based on text popping up


>you have entered the blue room and find a yellow key, what would you like to do?

>use the fish
>exit blue room
>use the map
>take yellow key

gotta love the old BBC computers!!
