your nick sounds familiar

hairline scratches are ok, at least it dissappears completely when the screen turns on. I got a hugeass scratch in the middle of my screen thanks to my idiot friend who took it and scratch it on the edge of a cement chair

now i have a layer of XtremeGuard over it and the scratches magically disappears!

I'm using Fpse too and seriously its a hell lot better and smoother than psx4droid and more compatibility with games too. And btw, your signature is too big bro. Remove the gigantic hp image please

Just sent my phone in to Phoneworx in Sunway Mentari for warranty claim for the earpiece problem.

Told the technician that i already flashed the phone to 2.2 and asked him whether is the warranty voided. He told me technically it should be voided but he can close one eye and just change the earpiece without touching the software. 3rd party service center ftw!!!

best part is that i send it in today, it would be ready by tomorrow

and damn, CM7 really looks damn tempting man

only thing missing in the feature list is auto-brightness and a-gps since i use GPS alot else it'll be a no-brainer to upgrade

Damn the Phoneworx service center damn efficient man! Yesterday noon sent to service, just now noon ready for collection already!

Who say not yet collect? Collected it right before i went to work. Now posting this through my defy

Yeap i dumped my phone into the water many times before. But before i do that, i triple check that all ports and back cover is closed properly. The microusb cover is quite loose but it does hold against water. Just make sure it doesn't open while its underwater then can liao. Heck, i applied my screen protector totally underwater LOL

The defy makes a great party trick and conversation starter when you dunk your phone into a glass of beer and the crowd goes O.O

Regarding the shaking issue, it should be the battery rattling. You can try by putting a piece of paper or something between the battery and the cover. An if you think the earpiece is a problem, the speaker mai lagi big problem? LOL

That depends on your luck though. My case was coz the dude memang say its a common problem so he help me that time. Else it'll be considered warranty void already. Now you're not sure its the software or hardware problem plus you're on a modded firmware so better don't send to warranty that fast. Later they put your warranty status as void then lagi teruk

uninstall then reinstall flash 10.2 see how

last time after i install liquidarc, flash wasnt working at all but i see it installed and it says updated to the latest version in the market. Uninstalled it then reinstalled and problem solved

Btw guys, wanna have a short gathering somewhere in May?

I'm heading off to National Service on May 17th so hopefully May 7th or 14th?

Had been a pretty long time since i've been to a gathering and i think its about time we have our own!

wahh me organiser ar? Tyenfei organiser can? I don't even know my way around mid valley! LOL!

As in I don't know my way inside mid valley, not the mid valley

Which place in mid valley got big space with many seatings and free wifi? Mcd?

Apparently if not mistaken there's a specific way to install cm7 for it to run properly. Will post up the post I found late since im at work now and posting this one my defy

Mine earpiece almost failed. Sound cracks when volume is above 1/3

In the end sent back to warranty with 2.2 still installed and got it fixed

Too bad some of us here(me) don't smoke

Actually, aGPS means that every time you turn on the GPS, it will download the aGPS location data which is the location of the satellites at that current time since the position of the satellites is forever changing to decrease the time needed for locking onto a satellite. If say you had not used the GPS for a few days and you turn on the GPS, it might take a couple of minutes to lock since the satellite location data cached in the phone is outdated. But if you turn on the GPS and have data connection to allow the phone to download the GPS Assistance Data, it should lock in seconds instead of minutes. And for people like me who don't have data plan, i can still make use of aGPS by downloading the assistance data right before i use the GPS through wifi. You can do that with an app called GPS Status and clicking the 'Manage A-GPS State' button and it will download the latest aGPS data and your GPS should lock in seconds once you go outdoors

Does your earpiece sound cracks when playing the standard dial tone when calling? If yes just send it in for warranty straight away since that's not supposed to happen in the first place.

I sent mine in for warranty when that happened to me and it was ready to collection on the next day. Of course, i sent mine direct to the service center for warranty claims though

Hey guys, sorry but i think i have to bail from the gathering. Just screwed up my car this morning. no transport anywhere

i was supposed to be the organiser. planning to do it the coming weekend since yesterday was supposed to be my last day of work so i have alot of free time. But now my car is screwed so i lost my mode of transport

mine wifi is pretty stable, camera flash working no probs. GPS works but takes a hell long to lock. aGPS is definitely not working.

and btw, reason i can't organise/join any gathering

nope. damn lucky. scratchless

my passenger just got some bruises and scratches from the glass only though.

phone lucky i put in my pocket instead of my door handle that time. else the phone sure hilang liao

both me and my passenger also ok. me pulak not even a single scratch

no idea about the wifi but so far its been a full day since i've used CM7 and wifi is pretty much connected whole day without problems

aGPS doesn't work so the time taken for a gps fix will be alot longer than what you're used to.

and i'm not too sure about google apps. but i read that to sign in your google account, you need the google apps coz if not mistaken it also includes the market and stuff onboard. So just install all at once only la.

stock 2.1 i don't think can disable data just like that. have to install those apn renamer if not mistaken.

accurate is accurate, until you reach the heart of kl with giant skyscrapers on your front, back, left right. That time i went KL with my friend at night with my phone gps and his Garmin Nuvi dedicated GPS. Both lost signal at roughly the same time when we approached the skyscraper area

so don't rely on the gps 100%

wanted to go kl stalk some club chicks LOL!

i'm using the Nordic as my base and pretty much everything that needs to work, works!

btw, anybody else here having delays between changing brightness for the screen? i set my screen to auto-brightness and i noticed its always setting my brightness too low and takes some time to change the brightness when i move around from dark->bright or vice versa. I remembered last time when i was on 2.2 it was much faster and smoother transition between brightness.

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

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

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?

send back to warranty bro if you're having an ori set.

their service center is at Sunway Mentari only. Sent there on Thursday, got it back on Friday!
