Samsung screen turns black when calling
Does anyone have a Samsung mobile? Presume they may all have similar calling feature so maybe can confirm weird calling design is feature or fault?

O2 priority moments on tesco
Hello. I've read that you can still access O2 priority moments on a tesco sim, as long as you access the O2 priority moments on wifi, not on the tesco internet. You can download the app if you put an O2 SIM card in, and then replace it with the tesco sim and the app will still be there. Has anyone tried this? Thanks

How to solve IMEI blacklisting legally
Hello MSE, A new member here, but I thought I'd post up my experience with IMEI blacklisting and how I solved it. Very short version: If you are the legal owner of a phone, then it is a breach of contract for your operator to block it - regardless of whether or not your IMEI is on a blacklist.
