I think i have to revert back to Froyo liao. So mafan have to press the screen to on the screen back. And some of the function is not ready yet also and a still got bugs. Ya, gingerbread is nice....but if got problem, using a stable Froyo is better i guess. Maybe a bit slow...but not slow until so obvious. I will wait for a final version before going back to CM7.

download market enabler from the market, then enable Verizon/T-Mobile, then enter market again. there are some apps that are US specific that we dont get here normally

papago is pretty good, and uses very little data, and mostly aGPS signal only
*
Oh Yes! Most important thing is we can update the map monthly laugh.gif

But .. as I notice papago use GPS not aGPS.

aGPS mean it will get your location by Wifi/Telco station ( not so accurate ), works without satellite. Thats why it call assist-GPS.



Google map support both GPS/ aGPS. U guys can try this,

Launch the google map, with enable location with wireless network under setting/ location & security/ then connect to internet ( wifi or data plan ). Without switch on the satellite signal it will still able to locate your location.

But not so accurate most of the time if you are out of town. ( less telco station sweat.gif )

Hi sifus,

When I set password for my 3G mobile hotspot,my iPad and other devices are blocked though I have type in the password.
But if I do not set the password,my iPad can access and surf.

Any suggestion or tip why my iPad is blocked even after I have keyed in the password. Thanks.

i think is the security type.

try choose WPA and see.

still thinking to either this or Samsung Galaxy Ace. huhuhu~

Me tooooooo, thinking to get Ace for my wife. White color very nice for lady brows.gif

BUT .. after 2 months, my wife also decided to get DEFY laugh.gif

Main reason,

Ace 3.2" screen, Defy 3.5"
Internal storage Ace 150MB, Defy 2GB( 1.2GB usable )

and Defy got extra bonus for water resistant.

I know people will say can use app2sd to move those apps.. but NOT ALL allow to move and my wife want easy install no need to think much blush.gif

I have googled the FAQs but still cannot find solution to my issues
1. How to download apps with my data line as it get queued up. With wifi , there is no issues.
NO Idea, but me no download problem while using celcom broadband ( weekly )

2. Do I have to download adobe reader to open my pdf files, 40 kb sizes? It always hanging..
Strongly recommend to download adobe reader from market. Others can't show full contain if u try to view brochure leaflet with picture.

TQ, sifus

tyenfei: not dont have 3G. the 3G signal will drop and i will have to restart or turn airplane mode on/off. Does the link you gave me fix that?

might as well upgrade to Cm7 4.1. Is that rooted yet?>
*
u may try, my experience is with Jboogies rom my phone signal "some" times gone and come back at KL area. Most of the time are ok.

then when i travel back to home town from KL, Lekas, N.S all the way mostly signal ok ... right until my hometown then no signal shakehead.gif

so, after i use a Defy SEA India 900mhz -1800Mhz fix zip file then all okay. thumbup.gif

tyanfei: I do not use FM radio but its fixed in 4.1. Just scared of the wifi only. GPS as long as it works what gives. I have a garmin my self. only problem is i cant be carrying my garmin in my packet all day long no? So still need GPS. I was wondering what "working but has bugs" means. Maybe today i'll flash.  hmm.gif

EDIT: if i backup using titanium, do i still need to download google apps?

The battery drain fast due to ..

- signal strength at your area
- the brightness level you set
- how many front desk widget you are loading
- environment temperature

BUT .. for your case I personally think it shd be cause by ..... battery still new lah sweat.gif use it after 1 ~ 2 weeks then you will see the different.

BTW, I'm running on CM7 beta 4.1, does anyone encounter a bug in the alarm?

When using apps like Alarm Clock Extreme or Alarm Clock Plus and you set the ringer style to increase the volume gradually in like 10s or also known as 'soft alarm', the alarm will be stuck at the lowest volume doh.gif

i woke up for work late for the past few days because of this and i didn't realize it was a bug in the phone. Always thought it was just me oversleeping and didn't came to my mind at all that it was my phone alarm ringing at the lowest possible volume until i tested it out yesterday doh.gif

just wanna know any of you facing this problem? If yes, does 5.1 solves it? I saw it solves the aGPS bug and that they reworked the sensors. now thinking whether to flash that or to wait until beta 6,7,8 or RC1 or wait until a stable release comes out? thumbup.gif

aiyo .. only phone got alarm meh hmm.gif

but extra phone as alarm more secure thumbup.gif
