How much data does it take to stream a movie on my Galaxy phone?

Q. I have a Samsung Galaxy 4G LTE cell phone. I recently was considering streaming movies on my phone using Netflix. How much data would this use on average? Your typical movie is between 90 and 120 minutes. Using this average length, approximately how much data would it require to watch an average length movie on my phone?

A. Netflix has three quality settings. Here is the breakdown:

Good quality (up to 0.3 GB per hour)
Better quality (up to 0.7 GB per hour)
Best quality (up to 1.0 GB per hour, or up to 2.3 GB per hour for HD)

Sometimes Netflix limits the bandwidth used by mobile devices. On the iPhone for example, 1.75 Mbps and 720x480 resolution is the maximum. That is 787 MB per hour. Netflix has some test movies like "Example Short 23.976" that show exactly what you are getting, but for some reason that information does not appear on Android devices.

Original Question

What does this phone error message mean?
Q. I live in the United States, Las Vegas Nevada. My Nephew also lives in Nevada.
I attempted to call my nephew's Samsung Galaxy III cell phone from my home land-line. I tried several times and each time received this error message: "We're sorry. This phone no longer accepts coins for this particular long distance call. "
WTF? I was NOT using a pay phone or another cell. I was using my home phone. My nephew uses T-Mobile for his service plan, does not use pre-paid cards for minutes and has never heard of this error before. Neither had I.
What is going on here?

A. Unknown.

You should contact your home telephone service provider's customer support helpdesk for assistance with this matter.

Good luck.

Original Question

Is there anything different between Samsung Galaxy S2 from different providers?
Q. Is there anything different on the shape/size of the Samsung Galaxy S2 for Sprint and AT&T? I'm looking for cases and am not sure if there will be a different because their from different cell phone providers?

A. The Samsung Galaxy S II is greatly modified by the carriers in the US, from size, processor, screen size, etc. I think you have to buy a case specific to the phone you have. There is no universal case for every Galaxy S II.
