That would be me I suppose, thank you. A little question though, please bear with my complete lack of knowledge about this. Is the display and the touch-sensitive part the same, or are they two seperate parts? My display works perfectly, it's the touchscreen that is not working.
I apologize for bumping my question like this, but i'd really like to get my G900 working again. Do I buy a new LCD like I would for any cellphone or is the touchscreen a seperate part?

I'm surprised I have not seen more knowledge posted yet about this to help you out. I can't say with certainty, but I do believe it's all one piece. Just the concept of the LCD screen that has to be "3 dimentional" in order to process touches on the screen. I don't know how it could be two pieces.
A new LCD display screen is a small investment, considering the cost of the phone (assuming you paid an average price for it.)
I would say go for the new LCD screen. I would.
I didn't see any on ebay just now, but I'm sure they are out there.
I've had my g900 for about a week, and it's been great.
The only hitch so far is that it locked up when I made the initial connection to my secure LAN. Had to restart with the power button. Everything's been great since.
I like this phone a lot.

Very strange!
I'm sure your girlfriend would have loved it.

touchscreen response is realy fast ,the platform (uiq) slows it down a bit
i can't stream youtube via wi-fi either...anyone know how to solve this prob?
I had the same problem with youtube via wifi, when i tried to load some video ever ended with a failed load o failed stream. Solved setting the "RTS threshold" (Internet accounts-(account name)-Edit-More- Advanced) to 256

Is there anyone who tried vTap on his/her G900? For me it keeps crashing halfway the movie. I'm able to go back to the main menu but from there unable to load anything.
Same happened here, in the vTap download page (browsing via g900) there is at the end of it, an "alternative download", uninstall your version and install that alternative version (it's only a signed version) an the crash should disappear.

Streaming youtube still doesnt work, even with your suggestion, I end up loading and buffering for like 2 minutes. Then when I press "Play" my phone locks up.
Same still happens with the alternative version of vTap. Halfway, or when the movie is finished OR when I press the touchscreen during the play of the movie, the phone locks up.
In both cases I need to reboot my phone.
edit: and, what programs can be used to sync your calendar with other than outlook?

Because streaming videos off m.youtube.com doesnt work for everyone theres several applications which let you run youtube in a different way.
One of them, and the only one working on the G900 afaik, is vTap. You can download it off m.vtap.com .

Just got off the phone to O2 in the UK and they have confirmed a release date of the 9th August for the G900.
I have a question of those that have bought a sim free phone in the UK. Has anyone used it on the O2 network and tried to send and or recieve a picture message using the G900? What resolution of picture were you able to send/recieve?
The reason I ask is that I had problems on the O2 network before when using a non-suppported phone. The pictures were still sent and recieved but resized from 480x640 to 60x80. This was due to the O2 network not recoginzing the phone in question, although O2 denied this. It was the Samsung D880 dual sim phone which is not officially available here. It worked fine on other networks.
