Hi all,
I'm in the nice position of having managed to cancel my orange contract early for free ( T+C changes) and can now take out a spanking new contract.
The hero is top of the list as I can't be waiting for the X3 to emerge.
I currently have a Touch HD/Blackstone.
The HD can do all I want it to, I use it mainly for business, so the question is this:
Can the hero sync my outlook calender ok(it is linked to my google account as well)? Can it read adobe file ok? and Doc's? excel?
Does it recieve email ok?
Basically, can it do all I've mentioned ok?
Sorry so long winded.....
Ta
Yes to everything exept docs and excel (only because I have not needed to do them so just don't know rather than saying no)
Hi, Thanks,
Can anyone say if it will open excel or docs or does it need an app to do this.
Mods: Somehow my post has appeared twice? can the other one with no answers be delete.
Not tried it yet but the Hero comes with QuickOffice.
According to the manual...
Quickoffice lets you view Microsoft Office Word, Microsoft Office Excel, and
Microsoft PowerPoint files on your phone. Quickoffice supports viewing of
Microsoft Office 00 Word (.doc), Excel (.xls), PowerPoint (.ppt) and text (.txt) files.

Hi everyone.
I share this cab to install Excel, Word, fax and zip Mobile 2010. It can be installed on a storage card (recomended) so you keep your Office 2007 working on your device for PowerPoint or OneNote.
If for some reason you need to open a word or excel document with Office 2007 you can do it through pxl.exe and pword.exe that are unthouched in root "\Wndows" Directory.
WM6.1, 6.5
I don't know about WM5
Enjoy.
Waw, thanks!
Hey, I have a Samsung Galaxy S which I intend to use as a note-taking device for my classes in college. I am buying a bluetooth keyboard and stand for it so that typing will be fast but need advice on which office suite or app is the best for that usage?
I have ThinkFree Office preinstalled and it works fine but I was wondering if there's something better. I need it to be able to:
Read: Word, Powerpoint, Excel, Pdf documents
Create: Word documents
Easily sync with my computer/laptop.
Anything better than ThinkFree Office?
Looking for the same thing anybody know?
Try QuickOffice...
For sync.. there's nothing as far as I know...
(BTW Sorry for my english, it isn't my native language)
For taking advanced text based notes, use Quickoffice or Polaris office (I have it on my SGS2)
And for notes having photos, notes, recordings etc, I had made a list of some note taking apps here. Do tell me if you found any one of them which suits your needs.
definitely evernote... it saves your notes automatically and backs them up online and you can access them from any device or computer its pretty sweet
I need an app that will open an Excel file so I can read and edit it. I got Office Suite Pro but I don't understand how to open an excel attachment in a email.
Please advise
I think that might depend on the email client you are using, but you should be able to just download it to your phone and open it there. I don't use that program, I use Quick Office Pro and the couple of word files I've opened I just clicked the attachment and it downloaded and opened it.

I had a problem with opening Office files on a PC after editing the files in Polaris on my Prime. I discovered a workaround so you don't have to start your document all over again.
You need to e-mail the file to your gmail account as an attachment and then view it in Google Documents. After opening it will say the file is corrupt but it offers the possibility to view it in Plain HTML and there is your document. It's not a perfect sollution but a reasonable workaround, you will only lose certain data but most of it is rescued.
I hope this will help you

I used Polaris to write a document in a meeting - a couple of lessons learned...
1 - did it really do that? I think that if I leave the app without saving it, it loses information. I have not fully figured it out but is that others experience? can I swap around apps and NOT lose data?
2 - trying to view the document in Word afterwards was really frustration. The worse item was linebreaks in the middle of words in a paragraph. Ultimately I started a new blank Word document and imported the Polaris version into it and all was well.
