anybody knows about maxis' data plan? I mean, is it really unlimited like digi's data plan if i choose 500MB data plan from maxis? Currently I'm using digi's data plan and if i exceed the quota I never have extra charges. What about maxis? Thanks

oooh too bad then. I still prefer digi.

anybody can tell me about the call quality? i read many complaints about it, is it really bad? how bad is it? is there a way to solve this problem? thanks

can we buy htc desire without contract? coz i'm not interested at all with maxis packages, i just want the phone.
If we can't, then anybody wants to make a deal with me, i take the phone and u take the plan. PM me if anyone's interested.
(btw, Desire can use other sim card (not only maxis) and can also be used when i'm overseas, right?)

we are not even allowed to pay the retail price from maxis (rm2199) to get the phone only?

Do we have to buy it at klcc? Cant we buy from other maxis' place?

is it true if the package only includea 2gb if we buy from maxis? Isnt it supposed to be 4gb?

if i buy Desire with contract from maxis can i use the sim card on blackberry phone for internet and BBM?

So if i ask maxis to make it enable for bbm, do u guys think they can do it for me?

I hv bold 2 with me now. I just want to use the sim card on my bb and i will use another telco on my desire. Probably i should ask maxis bout this.. Thanks anyway.

can anybody list some other alternatives for apps store beside slideme and android market itself? coz i want to buy some apps without rooting the phone. thanks...

guys, too bad for iphone fans (including me). when i was still thingking of buying desire or iphone, now i have decided who is the winner. I just read the preview about iphone 4 (it's not iphone 4g btw). honestly, it's not what i was expected for new generation of iphone. i gotta say that iphone 4 sucks for this time (better get desire).

negatives of iphone 4:
- same size of screen (3.5" only)
- still uses TFT screen (when all the new smarthphones have used amoled or even super amoled)
- secondary camera can only be used between iphone over wifi (cant use 3g) -- it's totally useless then
- uses microSIM (smaller size of SIM Card that we are using now) -- it makes us difficult if we want to use another phone using the same SIM Card
- no stereo for video recording
- no radio

i think that's all for now about the negatives of new iphone 4. we will know more when it has been released and reviewed. no offense, but i guess desire is still much better than iphone 4.

means when u record a video, u wont have good sound quality when you're playing it

sorry, i forgot to mention about the positives

positives of iphone 4:
- can record 720p HD video at 30fps -- too bad the sound quality couldnt match the video quality (no stereo)
- screen has 640x960 pixels -- it's good to have higher pixels. unfortunately, it still uses TFT screen and smaller screen size
- ??? -- maybe anybody can tell us here, coz i dont see much improvements in iphone 4 compared to previous iphone that can beat desire or nexus one

about the battery life is still not sure whether it's longer or shorter than desire. however, if u look at the specification for stand-by time, desire is longer than iphone. so we cant tell about the battery life for now.

for my opinion, desire is still better since i dont want to spend money for something expensive when it only has small improvements (iphone) and when there is a better choice (desire or nexus one). but it's all up to u guys. you have ur choice, so u make decision.

- still uses TFT screen (when all the new smarthphones have used amoled or even super amoled)

This is actually a plus , Iphone 4 using IPS screen , which is better than Amoled . IPS as in the tech used in high end LCD . 960x640 reso too
-> no matter what, iphone screen is outdated. apple is only going to suck all ur money by giving crap product.

- secondary camera can only be used between iphone over wifi (cant use 3g) -- it's totally useless then

Only for 2010 , they are sorting out the 3G with mobile carriers .
-> why would apple do such thing? it's a mistake in the first place. probably, apple is just stupid.

- no stereo for video recording

But its in 720p , name me how much smartphone can record on stereo lol .
-> there is also other alternative if u think record in 720p is so awesome such as, Samsung Wave, Samsung Galaxy S, i guess there will be a lot coming out later. so dont worry.

Oh , and who cares about radio . 10 Hours of wifi means constant web radio streaming also no problem . Not to say that I'm leaning to Iphone 4 , but the negatives point you said clearly isnt valid .
-> hey, some of us still like to listen to radio. it's a plus when there is a radio in our phone. you still think my points are still not valid?



you are right. i wonder if iphone 4 has a full flash support. anyone knows?

yes you are right too. amoled is always better than ips and super amoled is always the best at the moment. as i said, apple is going to suck all your money (coz you know it wont be cheap, right?) and make a fool of apple fans as apple think the users must be stupid too (willing to spend a lot of money for crappy thing).


category of phone manufacturers based on what they are good at:
- HTC = good at making high quality phone (canggih) -- best phone maker
- Blackberry = good at making mobile chat phone
- Iphone (Apple) = good at making expensive phone with so-so quality (nothing to be amazed in iphone 4)
- Samsung = good at making new innovation for a phone, but lacks of support
- Nokia = good at making friendly-user-interface and lagging phone -- has the biggest market share for now
- SonyEricsson = good at making outdated phone

it's just my opinion ok.. no offense anyway.

guys, do you think buy desire ap set is safe? will it not long last like ori set?

oh really? how did u know that ur data plan hasnt been activated? just now i got sms from maxis that i have unbilled amount rm235 (I just bought it yesterday btw, and i havent made a call), but i called the cs to check my unbilled but she said i dont have any unbilled amount. and then she told me to ignore the sms. i'm afraid now...

so do we really have to pay since they haven't activated the data plan? i have the same experience here, i took the 500mb data plan for 12 months and got sms that my data usage is rm235., i'm a lil bit worried now.

yes, i got sms from maxis, says that my data usage has reached rm235. Damn!!

btw, is maxis website not working? it's always logging out if i try to click any link in the website, do u guys experience the same?

1. talk about rooting, does desire from maxis belong to unbranded(unlocked) or branded(locked)?
2. can we really unroot back our desire and claim the warranty after that?
