Did that. Simply shows my original dropbox space. Will uninstall and try again.

Contact Dropbox Support then. I had a problem with mine (made a typo in the email address) and they sorted it for me

Just noticed another little feature. Install the Samsung kindle app and get a free book every month from kindle store.

Is this different to the Amazon Kindle app?
Can I pick the free book?

<snip>
Kindle for Samsung is an exclusive service that can be used only by those who own Galaxy phones and tablets running Android 4.0 and above.

The partnership between Amazon and Samsung doesn't end there though. They are also introducing Samsung Book Deals, which means through the app you'll get 12 free books a year, with four to choose from every month. All four will be picked out from a range of "prominent" titles and will be "chosen specifically for Galaxy smartphone and tablet owners", <snip>

When i got my S5, MTN stated they would also replace it in store without asking questions.

Btw.. What is a benemouth? Unless you meant behemoth.

One thing i hate about the S5, is the god forsaken charge point. ffs.

The charge cover is very annoying!

 

[Park@82]

Yeah but judging from the s3 quality, it was pretty shocking. I mean it was dropped from about 10cm with a case and it shattered in pieces.

I have a rubber case on my s3. Had it for a year and half, dropped in many times, sometimes on tiles and even on the pavement - it doesn't have a single scratch from it. I guess I have been lucky so far. Ive seen someone else dropping theirs from knee height onto paving and the screen shattered - he didn't have a proper case though.

Cool

Thanks. Bit of a pain to maintain two Kindle accounts and apps, but ok

 

[bigicy]

Can anyone suggest some good cases for the S5?

I only managed to find Otterbox cases (and a Martin Fields screen protector) on the Orange site:

I looked at the Bodyglove ones in the cell phone stores but I didn't quite like them and the Samsung originals don't seem to offer much protection.

I just logged in with my Amazon account.
2 apps but 1 account so I can read on either device (or my pc if I used the kindle for pc app).

Did you not know this?

I just use the Samsung kindle app to add the book to my library for reading on whatever compatible device I want.

They do it this way so that you can carry on reading from where you left off on whatever device you want without having to find your place.

Nope. The quoted website said something about logging in with one's Samsung account, so assumed two accounts were needed

You log in with your samsung account to register the app (you don't really do this as your phone is already logged into your samsung account by default). Then you log into your Amazon account in the app itself.

Yep she did have a rather rubbish case on it, and it just hit the screen at the right angle.

Here is a screenshot showing books from my Amazon library and the new book they gave me on the left of the last book I purchased.
