Hi all,
I hope maybe someone here can help me out with the following question.
My wife has an iphone and is trying to email to her friends and family in Japan. Most of them have either Samsung Galaxy S3 or Samsung Galaxy S2. In any case her emails which is is typing on the iPhone in Japanese are not readable ion the Samsung Galaxy S2 and S3 Docomo versions.
It is by the way the same way around. If she receives a messages form an S3 or S2 it is not readable on her iPhone.
I am sure it is related to how the phones are encoding the characters. What does one need to do to get this solved?
BTW this is not only here in Europe an issue, even Japanese have that problem sending messages between Apple and Samsung.
Thanks for any hints, suggestions and advice.
I guess it has something to do with the fact that iPhone does only do UTF-8 vs most Japanese encoding schemes are JIS or Shift-JIS.
Again, any help is massively appreciated.
Thanks a lot.

Try a new mail application?

Best Chance in Germany should be at "Media Markt" - big electronic store, present in every bigger city. Also Amazon.de has the S2 in Stock.

There's no such model as "GT_9100 international".
Also, spamming two subforums with the same question is a quick way to ensure your speedy departure from XDA.
sorry
but i mean samsung galaxy s2 (GT-9100) without G
If you actually did get it from the US, then it's not the GT-I9100. The GT-I9100 is sold many places, but NOT in the US. There are several US specific variants of the Galaxy S2, but none of them are the GT-I9100.
You sure about the model?
Galaxy S2
i will received it next monday form usa
but he told me the phone is galaxy s2
according to your info. i'm not sure and i afraid if i receive anather phone model .this will be a problem with me.
please advise
There's not a lot we can do to advise you.
Ask the seller yourself .
It's not hard to find out an exact model number.
Hello all,
I just purchased the Samsung Galaxy S II from AT&T yesterday while it was on sale for $9.99. I've been searching through the forums looking at roms and some of the forums have a picture of the phone which looks different from the picture on AT&T's site. I understand a lot of what they (AT&T) post is general information but I was hoping you could assist me.
In this video I see both the S II and the Skyrocket have 4 buttons across the bottom not that awful looking big black button in the middle.

Does the S II look like,
A) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Samsung_Galaxy_S_II_(3).jpg
or
B) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Samsung_Galaxy_S2_Epic_4G_Touch.jpg
Thanks in advance for your help!
You probably have this phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1301
Look under your battery for the exact model number then find the correct forum.
So I'm looking to switch to the t-mobile 30$ monthly 4g and have been looking at a phone. Theres a pretty big price difference between the s2 and s3 and I'm not sure its really warranted after you factor in that ICS is available via roms for the s2.
I guess my questions are- is the screen on the s2 really going to be that much better with its plus display? I know the t-mobile s2 is a more or less suped up version of the normal s2. Also, will the camera be identical to the s3 since from what I understand the only difference was the software? What downsides am I really looking at in the end choosing the cheaper and older phone?
thanks in advance for any insights!

I'm guessing you're asking about the T-Mobile USA versions of the S2 and S3?
This isn't the forum for the T-Mobile USA version of the S2, that is in a different forum instead.
Hi,
i would like to know if here are any members from Croatia that rooted and flashed their S3?
I am about to buy one and would like to know how to do these actions and what should have to take into account before doing it. Some beginners guide. The carrier would probably be VIP (don't know if that is important).
Thanks in advance.
Look at the Thread "Balkan S3 Owners" by me.
Pozdrav
