QUOTE(lingch @ Mar 28 2011, 05:33 PM) Update it through custom system recovery nandroid backup. Guide in front page. Unfortunately you'll have to do a data wipe before restore to jboogies so yea, everything will be gone. Although, you can always use titanium backup to backup and restore back all the apps and settings once you've flashed to boogieman i reason i choosing either one of these phone is because they only cost 1$ for my starhub plan in singapore Added on March 28, 2011, 5:37 pm 1. I can only be satisfied with a lenglui by my side  2. The infamous earpiece problem if you're an unlucky one  Other than that, none that I know of3. Perhaps there will be leak version of 2.3 soon cause droid 2 and droid x just got theirs today  I think you should get Atrix instead   |

QUOTE(abbygirl @ Mar 28 2011, 06:40 PM) Question 1 : Yes, for the money i paid ($0), of course i am satisfied !!! thanks for the feedback... Question 2 : The common defect, like Lingch said, the infamous earpiece problem. If you are under warranty, nothing to worry about. Motorola can fix the prob. Even no warranty, nothing that cannot be fix if you know how to do it. I fix mine myself.  Question 3: If you say official, dream hard....very hard. If you say unofficial, there will be a genius somewhere that can provide you with 2.3. I will definitely get defy over optimus one...but galaxy ace PS:  Ignore Lingch on Atrix. He is trying poison us with Atrix...every...single...day.  i personally prefer the look of defy over the galaxy ace..it looks like an iphone wannabe  |

ermm i have got some real noob question here..
does it void my warranty if i flash the Froyo_UK_3.4.2-117 (by iaio72-xda-developers) to the phone? do i have to revert back to official firmware if i need to send back for warranty? and lastly what is the difference if i use the guide on first page to upgrade to 2.2 and i use motorola software update? thanks a lot for any feedback |
