  • Vodafone Mini 7 .....anybody else got one of these?

    I bought this thinking Android v6, would be useful for the SB apps but it's hopeless, it goes into sleep mode every 30 mins (gone through settings and can't see a way to stop it).

    All day long it's been cooking and with about 4 restarts it managed 2x lifestyles for a grand total of 4sb.

    Before I cut my losses and sell this piece of *£%" on ebay, does anyone find this useful for apps?

    Go into settings/display/sleep to adjust.

    been using one for months, paid for itself several times over.

    When people are buying these phones just for Swagbucks etc, what data plan are you on and how much is it a month?


    I assumed streaming videos all day on a phone would burn through data like there is no tomorrow, surely it isn't cost effective or am I missing something? Like are you only using it at home on WiFi or something?

    WiFi is the key. My phone is set to only run the Swagbucks apps on WiFi so I don't trash my data allowance.

    Home use wifi only, never even put in a sim. The vodafone payg's are locked to voda, need to use on their network for 30 days to unlock at a cost of £10.

    Here's what I have in this section.

    Do you have an option on yours to completely disable the sleep function?

    Does yours currently run the apps ok? Did you add a mini Sd card?
