Internet tethering = usb and bluetooth only
3g mobile hotspot = wifi

Actually 3g mobile hotspot is a feature available only with froyo, it is also known as wifi tethering.

How much does this phone retail for in Malysia currently?

Thanks sanosizo for the explanation.

hmmm today my fren told me, if use tethering or accessing broadband with device other than that of the phone, i.e sharing it or using it with a laptop might be subjected to additional charges outside of the data plan subscribed. he said last time he checked maxis got charged one.

i m on celcom, i just checked and they say no charge =) yeah

by the way, found that HTC charger can charge defy without any problem =)

Just overclocked my defy. Now running at 1ghz 56vsel. Don't dare to go higher. Version 2.34 and overclock defy is very good right now, everything is fast and snappy.

yups. but does it features in defy 2.1?

it's possible if manufacturer decides to put that features. like what samsung did to Galaxy S android 2.1

both of these features are in defy 2.1

Cool thing about wifi tethering is your phone acts like a wifi access point where up to 5 wifi capable devices can use the internet coming from your phone. And you can still make and receive call at the same time.

It is safe to run the phone at 1ghz because that's the original speed. But to save some battery power, I keep it running at 800 and slow it down to 300 when the screen is off.

my friend testing the s'pore with malaysia telco, but he said can't detect any signal? any idea?

problem solved, he said might be his SIM card problem.

Btw, when turning on the phone, it 1st show starhub logo, can't be removed? Because this is s'pore set.

You can only remove it by flashing to non-singapore firmware but then you will void the warranty.

Hi guys,

I took some videos with Defy but can't access them. Can't view the videos from the "file manager on PC" but they are in the phone's gallery.

Another problem I have is my address book is showing all my Gmail contacts. I tried to put some of them in a different folder but it doesn't work. Did you guys import your SIM or something?

Please help and thanks!

to filter the contact, click on the contact and choose motorola address book but first import from sim first

import from sim go to contact => menu button => settings => manage sims => import sim card

Then next time when I add new contact, will the contact be saved to SIM? Then when change phone how?

the contact will be on the phone, u export to sim lo

Aiyo, thanks! What about the video problem?

you can also sync to gmail.. more safe
can get back whenever you want..

you also can manage em here
http://www.google.com/contacts

even if u put a pic for each contact number.. it will also save & sync at google.. well thats basic for all android phone

My contacts are in Gmail but then now my phone shows ALL my Gmail contacts as well.

Ah, I have another problem.

I have a Google calendar. I added two Gmail accounts to my Defy but my calendar that is in one of my accounts doesn't show up.
