    Thread How can I disable the charging LED?

    Every other phone I've had contained the ability to switch off the charging LED. I can't find any such setting. Am I just tired and missing something, or is it a suggestion I need to pass on to the Huawei team?

    Thread Huawei HiCare - "Forum" tab but they don't exist

    Exploring my new Mate 9, I opened the HiCare app, and it has useful information on how to use the phone. It also has tabs along the top, one of which is Forums. In that, it has links to a Huawei Forum, and to a Facebook "forum". I thought that might be an interesting way to find out more...

    Thread Weather widget - where am I? Current location is silly

    When I got my phone on Friday, the weather app is on the home screen, and it showed a location that is not real. It says "Elvet and Gilesg..." which isn't a location you can search for, and isn't a location that anyone locally would use. Besides, it looks daft as it cuts off partway through...

    Thread [Q] Tethering to a phone - which phone?

    I have my wonderful Nexus 7. I have my wonderful HTC HD2, which has a Wi-Fi Router capability. I use the router for my laptop from time to time. I'm not happy with current phone offerings due to pathetic battery and storage options, and unwilling to carry around even more spare batteries...

    Thread HD2 book collection database software sought

    I got my new HD2 and was delighted, but then tried to get the software that I have been using previously to work on it. As I travel around and look in second hand book and record shops, I am never totally sure from memory whether i have a particular book or cd. Publishers keep changing the...

    Thread EXIF info in pictures; nothing there!

    Does any one know if the HD2 can save information into the EXIF data? And if so, how to enable it? I had thought that EXIF was the standard that ALL cameras now used, even cr***y ones in mobile phones now that they are into megapixels. I have found a registry entry...
