there's an option in the wireless settings to turn off data when its roaming..so you can leave voice on in case you need anything...

the short cut to flight mode is just to hold on to the power key and choose flight mode

WHAT?! I'm in Coquitlam and I called Coquitlam best buy, unless the chick was lying to me

Is it just the screen or full body? The site says $32.99 for full body

yup you can turn on wifi no prob from the notification screen or in settings..

flight mode just disables voice and network data

I use K-9 mail for my shaw account..much better than the stock up cos it doesnt lag or force close on me lol

You wanna use it with your hotmail account?
If so, just use the build-in email app.
There is a trick to get emails pushed to your phone even with regular hotmail account.

When you set up the email box on the phone just choose manual setup after you fill in your email add and password.
Then choose Microsoft Exchange mail.
Use your email for email address for username and password stays same.
Exchange server us: m.hotmail.com

Voila!
Now you have your hotmail emails pushed to your phone.

People still use screen protectors? I keep my captivate in my pocket everyday at work, it gets bumped on all day long and I've yet to get one hairline scratch on the screen, gorilla glass is pretty decent

I got the full body one...

The system said that Coquitlam had them in stock. I wonder if the girl you talked to even knows what the Galaxy S II is...lol.

Surrey Central had LOTS when I bought mine 2 days ago...You can check there for sure.

Edit: http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/...7d82d4b72een02

Check store availability above...

I actually did that right before I called and it says coquitlam has 8 in stock But when I called she said they'd have them by 7pm tonight

Either way I'll probably just drop in again today after work.
How good is bestbuy staff at applying these things?

I dunno about Best Buy at Coquitlam, the guy at my store does a fantastic job. Does mine for free...

Needless to say, Invisible Shield is very easy to apply. Keep your hands moist with cold water and use a blowdryer to help mould the shield around tight corners. That's the best way to install it. Keep the shield warm so it moulds into all the little design and curves of the phone.

it's just like invisible shield. you can get them at mobiledna at lansdowne mall $20.

For those with the Ghost Armour, I assume it protects the whole phone. Does the back look a bit weird over the battery cover due to the fact that the battery cover isn't a flat back but instead have some ridges. Does the Ghost Armour make it look funky?

Factory resets will not relock a phone. Hence why I tell everyone to backup their galaxy s unlock folder.

I got a ghost armor screen protector last night. The guy was telling me they have a white carbon fibre type thing for the back which actually looked pretty sick.

However, for me it was a bit too slippery and I could see i slipping out of my hands with it on
