yeap theres a tiny gap between the battery and the back cover. Its normal. If you want to get rid of it you can put a piece of paper between the cover and the battery but i'd advice against from doing so as it may compromise the water seal

anyway, it doesn't bother me

my advice? FASTER GET IT!! No regrets getting mine

Just buy from gtrowa on the forum. He owns a shop in Sunway Pyramid and his service is pretty good. He installed Papago for me when i got it and also charged up the phone for me before i went and collect it since i told him i wanted to use it right-away

and yes brightstar is the official distributor and last time there used to be many Motorola ServiceOne outlets around Malaysia, now all dunno gone where already

i heard that the motorola service center is somewhere in sunway though. Can't really recall.

but honestly, the rattle is very, very minor. I doubt you'll even notice it unless you shake it up and down hard lol.

and the Defy if not mistaken, actually have a better GPU than the Desire. PowerVR SGX530 on the Defy vs Adreno 200 on the HTC Desire. Thats why the Defy won the Desire in the Neocore benchmark

Ahhh yeah, thats what the guy told me too. The current service center is in Mentari Court. So its a 3rd party service center just that its authorized by Motorola?

Weird, try asking madman where he get his. Coz i think he got it from Maxis with plan also if not mistaken.

most shops just tell me 'Motorola die already la. No more Motorola already'

u take his iphone and your defy, put both in a bucket of ice see what happen. LOL!

just went for a drinking session yesterday, played SNSD on my phone and dumped the phone in the bucket of ice. Pretty cool party trick i tell ya'!

only common thing i know that can scratch the Gorilla Glass is sand or anything harder than sand since sand = glass and anything harder or as hard as glass will scratch glass itself. Metal like keys and stuff will not scratch it at all. I used to demo to my friends using a key and stabbing(yes, STABBING) the screen then wiping it off and showing them that theres no scratches

No comment on the memory card though as i'm using a class 2 and so far no problems. But i heard some people say a higher class memory card makes a lot of difference. How exactly, i'm not sure. Just a tip, get at least an 8gb or more

RM1550 from gtrowa

fuhhh~~~ That should be more than enough space!

nope, according to the mohs scale, metal is around 4~5 while glass(silica, *ahem* sand) is around 6~7. Just beware of those hardened steel though. My friend did managed to get a scratch on his Defy using a RM400 Spyderco knife

and keep it away from your wife's diamonds

i've searched through almost all of your posts in this thread but i can't find it

Btw tyenfei, your sig is kinda dated with the December 06' E398 gathering, wanna update it with a 2011 Motorola Defy gathering anytime soon?

Its IP67 certified but moto dropped the rating coz they don't want to be responsible in case anything happens.

Hey bro, you using Setvsel right? Does yours occasionally goes back to the default 800mhz clock after a reboot? Mine does. Sometimes it reverts back to 800mhz after reboot and sometimes it maintains my oc

Just flashed to Froyo yesterday night. After almost 1 day of usage, i can conclude that:

1. very minor difference in performance in terms of menu and homescreen fluidity
2. Flash works, but some site doesnt.
3. Wifi signal improved i think. Previously its pretty hard to maintain wifi signal in my room, now i have no problems with coverage throughout my whole house with speedtest giving 20~30ms ping and 2~3 dl/ul with my 10mbps Unifi line.
4. GPS signal weaker i think. Haven't really tested this out yet but time it takes to lock onto a sat is longer. Haven't really tested it properly yet, just a simple test with gpstest while outdoors
5. I miss the old moto connected music player! The lyrics works better than the Tunewiki lyrics. Plus the connected music player already have song recognition built in.
6. Quadrant speeds increased quite a lot but Neocore is pretty much exactly the same at 41~fps.
7. Black notification bar looks way better
8. new animations looks cooler too

Using jboogie3's orange deblur btw

jesse: i guess thats your only way bro. no choice

I think you're supposed to rename it to 'update.zip' then place it in the root folder and select update. Zip from the recovery menu but I dunno why i do fail wan @.@ but still can use no problem so i just use oni lorr LOL XD

Added on February 17, 2011, 2:21 amupload to mediafire and PM me the link pls!

btw, is it just me or is it that after i flash to jboogie3, i can't seem to run clockworkmod's system recovery?

after i installed it and clicked Recovery Boot, the phone gets stuck at the black screen and nothing happens

Thanks bro! USB Debugging was set to on. Now i just ran the update.zip without problems

anyway, what are the diff after you apply the update.zip? O.o

Added on February 17, 2011, 11:37 amedit: and now it seems to be stuck at the boot animation

Added on February 17, 2011, 11:38 amedit 2: nevermind, false alarm. just takes super long time to boot for the first time after flash/upate LOL

I WANT THE EXTREME GUARD!! I just ordered mine from ebay 1 week already not yet arrive >.<

After using android blackberry sucks already eh? Haha!

really? I've got the opposite. My battery life is pretty damn long!

unplug at 11am, go work reach 12pm, connect to work wifi straight away and online msn + skype + gtalk. Browsing net with dolphin browser roughly 1hour and quite frequent msning and slight gaming PLUS turn on GPS to track my night jogging using CardioTrainer and a couple of calls and around 20~30 smses and currently as of now its showing 23% battery remaining. When i came home i remembered i saw the battery % was around 40.

actually the 1st charge just charge as normal until full. that only applies to older NiMH batteries but newer Li-ion batteries does not require a break-in charge.

u can read about it in www.batteryuniversity.com

4.3" is too damn big lol seriously. Troubles reaching the notification bar right at the top then after that have to push up the notification bar from the bottom pulak lol

Good luck applying it. Took me a good few hours to apply it LOL!

Everytime I apply either got air bubbles or dust particle underneath so must remove, wash and reapply again and I think I repeated the process around 4 times @.@ go find youtube for ZAGG Invisible Shield installation guide since its pretty much exactly the same thing.

No after i applied the screen protector, my typing especially in portrait mode improved tremendously!

2.2 not even our year how to get 2.3? LOL!

Typed this out on my defy with Dolphin Browser in full desktop mode

I removed mine after an hour of applying an reapplied. This time in the sink. Washed the whole phone and screen protector just to make sure the surface was completely clean then reapplied after putting both phone and protector under running water LOL
You could've removed it and reapply again ma. Haha!

Seriously if wonder how those non-waterproof phone how et apply wan. LOL

not until you get it scratched like me

now after applying the sp, my screen the scratch cannot see at ALL!

Wow, mine's pretty damn messy compared to yours!

I've only got 3 homescreen and its all full of mess

warning: large images

You kena scratch too bro?

anyway, just re-applied my XtremeGuard since my last reapply was kinda crappy. Did what tyenfei said and did it totally UNDERWATER!

this time no more bubbles/foreign objects underneath my screen protector again

now just need to wait few hours for the water to evaporate again
