nope, i tried it just now, but instead of 'x' but '-' button appear, do i need to click that '-' button? oh yeah, on the home screen, if you immediately press on any icon then all of them wiggle, then 'x' button appear on certain apps. does it mean by clicking that 'x' button you totally delete the apps?

thanks nway
*
yes, tap the '-' to properly quit the app. you're correct, 'x' button is to delete apps smile.gif

hi all, i want ask some opinion . To me, iphone it's nice and i love it but apple release new iphone every year which make me and others can't afford upgrade to latest iphone . i also google and some forums or some members also have same thought with me . many people who love iphone and hard to afford latest iphone agree that apple should release new iphone at least after 2 years of release previous iphone . what is your opinion ?
*
dude, you do realise how fast other phones can catch up in two years right? no one would want that +_+

also, no one is forcing u to buy iphones every year. if u must have the latest n greatest, go for a maxis plan. say u get ivalue 1, u pay rm1390 for the 16gb ip4 n pay rm100 per month. when a new iphone comes out, u can probably sell the ip4 for ~1.5k and use that money to pay upfront for ip5 n continue ur contract. and so on

anyway, nothing wrong about not using the latest iphone. if ur friends judge u on that, then u need new friends

good thing u havent turn it on yet smile.gif

do what nokia2003 suggested. leave it for 3 or 4 days, then try turn it on. that's really the best thing you can do. 1 night not enough. if after 3/4 days still cannot on, then too bad lah sad.gif

If u refer to my earlier post, i upgraded the phone at the same shop where i bought it at low yat. Thus, if they know its a US set why would they even bother to upgrade it. I know i asked for it, but for a reasonable man with proper knowledge in phones they shouldve stopped me then. I didnt know its a US set.They said it's a simfree phone. I didnt bother to check as I don't even know how to differentiate between a locked and simfree set. I guess i got scammed. Going back to the shop soon.
*
pick which one u like tongue.gif

1) shop owner forgot he sold u a US set (was it even the same person?)
2) shop owner knows u're using a US set, but didnt bother to warn u cuz malas
3) shop owner purposely dont want to warn you, hoping u'll come back so they can charge to unlock for you
4) shop owner have no idea what is a locked set and its limitations

those "having problems" with iOS 4.1 are mostly people who are clueless about jailbreaking. no need to listen to them

updating to 4.1 is the 1st thing i did when i got my phone from maxis. no prob at all

it takes quite a while for the phone to boot from an empty battery. if after a few minutes connected to usb (wall socket preferred) still cannot boot, then i guess need to exchange

Hi, this might sounds stupid, but I want to know what is the SMS maximum characters? It shows 160 characters limit on my iPhone when I type. Is that how maxis charges user as well, max 160 characters per SMS? What about Chinese word, does it count one word as one characters?

Thanks in advance for your help!
*
the 160 limit was known so long ago already. it's the limit for SMS, not just for iphone/maxis. any phone on any network in the world will have a limit of 160 characters per SMS. u can exceed it but it counts as another SMS. lets say i send an SMS containing 400 characters:

1st 160 characters = 1st SMS (lets say the rate is 10sen)
2nd 145 characters = 2nd SMS (another 10sen)
the remaining 95 characters = 3rd SMS (yet another 10sen)

so even im typing one long SMS with 400 chars, i'll be charged for 3 SMS

so to send max 160 chars is 10sen, 305 chars is 20sen, 450 chars is 30sen n so on

hope u understand smile.gif

QUOTE(deodorant @ Nov 3 2010, 01:13 PM)
Not entirely sure where to post this, but ... is it possible to tether a wifi internet connection?

i.e., my laptop's wifi and network cards are dead. i have my iphone connected to the internet via wifi, and i'm attempting to use it as a modem via internet tethering via the usb cable to the laptop.

Here's the problem. I notice that by surfing internet on my laptop this way, the iphone doesn't use the wifi connection, it uses cellular data (i.e. i can see my cellular data usage increase).

Turning off cellular data in the settings kills internet tethering. How do I force the iphone to tether via wifi instead of cellular data?
*
interesting. i wouldnt say turning off cellular data 'kills internet tethering' since the option to turn it on is still there. but i tried what u said (tethering wifi-connected iphone with cellular data off to laptop via bluetooth) n yea, i got a "This webpage is not available." tethering using 3g connection is fine.

hope someone could shed some light on this

hello everyone, I would like to ask a few question. Maxis and Digi iphone 4 is official unlock, that means if i get a maxis set, i can use the plan on other phone while the iphone can use other service provider like digi or celcom?

yeap can can. some people go for maxis/digi plan only to sell the phone off later cuz they juz want the plan. juz dun let maxis know

Hi guyz,

i'm a BB user and i thinking to migrate to Iphone4 as my fren told me that Iphone have push capabilities by BB. Is that true ? what is the difference btw BB and Iphone other than PUSH function. Thanks
thanks in advance !
*
iphone push is not by BB / RIM obviously, it's by apple's servers.

the difference, i dun even know where to start tongue.gif. app store is much2 better than app world in terms of choice, quality n interface. probably it's best if u have any more specific questions?

but i've read through maxis iphone plans TnC, it says "Purchase of an iPhone must be accompanied with any of the above rate plans. Maxis reserves the right to rescind some of the privileges of the rate plans should the registered line not be used with the purchased iPhone."

so if i want to get maxis set with the plan, i use the plan while i give my brother to use the iphone, it is possible.. I just want to be sure that it is possible because currently i'm using maxis postpaid and i'm interested in getting maxis ivalue 2 where the iphone price is rm990 for 24months where it would be a lower price to get that phone for my brother. But, what about warranty? let's say if the iphone needs to claim warranty, i'm the one should send for warranty or how?
*
that's y i say dun let maxis know tongue.gif not sure abt warranty though, i think ur brother can claim 'on behalf of u' as long as he has the warranty card

*
yes yours is unlocked, but that buyer sounds like a scam. think for urself, if he's in nigeria, why bother buying all the way from malaysia? last time when i was selling my ps3, some guy from africa wanted to buy. it's just not logic

iphone 3gs 16gb question,

my mom just bought 2nd hand iphone.

the question is after 2 weeks using that iphone my mom bill come and it put usage of gprs. for your information my mom didnt subscribe any internet service from "yellowman" just pure call,sms, mms and etc only. only surf internet via wifi services.

did anyone of here can tell me whats the problem? haha if blackberry is not a problem for me but iphone i really noob on this data service thinggy. try use search function still didnt answer my question.

if hard to elaborate just show me the link and i will browse 1 by 1.

thanks guyz.. RM 35 for data that we didnt use.. haha maybe got some application running behind.. damn...

thanks in advance
*
juz be glad she only got charged rm35, not hundreds. make sure u turn off cellular data (take note that she will not be able to receive MMS if this is off). if u cant find the off switch for cellular data, it's because u need to upgrade to iOS 4.0 at least.

it's either some app using data running at the background, or maybe she 'curi2' surf a bit using 3g. believe me, it doesnt take a lot of surfing to reach rm35

QUOTE(Andrew Lim @ Nov 9 2010, 01:44 PM)
Buying a phone to "feel proud" and "exclusive" is stupid. Only your own ego really cares about what phone you own. Nobody else gives a shit honestly. In the technology world, your phone will soon be outdated anyway.

very true. better invest in things like luxury watches to feed proud n exclusive, those stuff wont get outdated
