V: doubts and suggestions

hello everybody, i recently bought a Xperia V and i have a few doubts i'd like to clear

1. I've read in this forum that there are certain sd card that are not likely to work with the device, i was wondering if a Kingston Micro SD 8GB would work fine, or which micro sd would you suggest.

2. i found a data limit in settings, and if i click it it sets a data limit of 5GB. i want to know if i can change that limit and, if possible, how?

3. whenever i finish recording a video the video is found in the album app, not in the movies app. what is the movie app for? and how can i move my videos from album to movies?

4. Extended standby mode, by default, it disables wi-fi, data traffic, and some apps. is there a way to change what it should disable like which app i want it to disable, or wi-fi, etc.

5. how can i access Chrome's and Browser's history

6. i dont always take my battery charger with me, i was wondering if it is ok if i use battery chargers from other devices, from a xperia S for example, and/or devices from other brands.

1) Kingston is ok , I also use it

2) Data limit is changed by activating it first. Then u can change the warning setting and the limiting setting

3) The movie app is used to watch movies, not the ones you ve recorded but trailers like the spiderman trailer already on the device

4) extended standby mode can not be customised. see market for better apps

5) Google it 🙂

6) Normall other branded battery chargers are no problem. Just look at the maximum current they provide. That alters the charging time..

Please don't use alcohol to clean your screen.

Just use water (this is a water resistant phone, after all),

7. when i transfer data to SD card, does it copy the data or moves it to SD? ( i dont want doubles taking unnecesary space ). if it copies data instead of moving it is it safe to click on clear internal storage, will it delete everything that has been 'copied'?

8. when you scroll down notification bar, on top there are 5 buttons: sound, bluetooth, wifi, data, settings (i think these are called widget buttons, not really sure) is there any way to customise these buttons? 'cause i want gps to be on top there.

9. how do i set up ALL apps (even the ones downloaded from play store) to store all their data in SD instead of internal?
