certainly agrees on that.  rclxms.gif 1 more thing to clarify, defy dun hav front camera rite? i mean for video calling. sorry for the noob question.  sweat.gif
*
Defy doesn't have front camera,I tried the back camera no problem just that you can't see the screen tongue.gif

If i use Mini SD Class 10, will it increase my Defy speed? Thinking to get 1 biggrin.gif
*
Don't think it will,but save you some time during data transferring from pc to phone

QUOTE(Long88 @ May 2 2011, 09:51 PM)
got class 6 for micro sd?
so far i saw a lot of class 4.
im searching for class 10 also, yesterday halfday spent time at lowyat but no class 10 for kingston micro hd.
got one brand for class 10 but i fogot the brand.

anybody know where selling Kingston class 10?
*
I saw 16/32GB class 10 patriot micro-sd in lowyat,RM120 for 16GB if not mistaken,but I took 16GB class4 sandisk instead tongue.gif

QUOTE(TAGreptiles @ May 3 2011, 01:10 AM)
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?>
*
that's because of the band frequency use in the custom rom different from ours. You try to download the baseband switcher & choose UK 2.51.1 band should be able to help biggrin.gif

we using 900~1800mhz & 2100mhz for 3G

What ads blocker is gooding eh?
*
I overclocked to 1ghz and undervolted it so far no problem after week of usage,you are not gonna burn the processor when you set the voltage to be lower than current setting.I think upgrade to android 2.2 froyo does help the lagging issue also. For the ads blocker you go market look for "adfree",serves me well.

QUOTE(blackwhitechipsKL @ May 3 2011, 09:17 PM)
no need task killers from 2.2 onwards. CM7 running 2.3, and has built in task killers.

Didn't know that,so now can I uninstall the ATK? tongue.gif

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
*
too bad bro doh.gif btw,just 3rd party alarm application affected? How about the alarm built-in the android? I am waiting for stable version of CM7 too rclxms.gif

thnx for the reply...i heard there is earpiece problem on dis fon...does it effect new batch fon...? how about the thickness..is it bothering u..? is it hard to type sms coz i'm use to type a lot..sory for the noob question rclxub.gif ...not ready yet to use android sweat.gif ...been using e72 for more than a year..
*
I was worrying for the earpiece problem too,but too bad can't resist it,still die die went to get myself a defy 2 weeks ago. In android,we don't type,we SWYPE brows.gif

QUOTE(Coldf3ar @ May 14 2011, 08:31 PM)
I have using Defy for 2 weeks already but still can't get used with QWERTY keypad tongue.gif

Btw, just ROOTed my Defy. Can I just change my Eclair to Froyo?

And.. If i reset it to factory default (setting>Priv. Settings>Factory data reset), will everything goes back? Mean.. Froyo to Eclair, ROOT to UNROOT, Overclock to de-overclock?
*
Yes,you can upgrade to leaked Froyo following the instructions in 1st page,for the factory data reset,you can't downgrade from Froyo to Eclair,for root/unroot,I not sure but you can always unroot your defy with apps easily. For the overclock,yes I think the cpu frequency would be reset to original state biggrin.gif

lol...i think should be alright if you follow properly the instructions. Btw,I still using BB froyo,trying to resist from the poison of CM7 until a more complete version came out,not really got the time for various version update tongue.gif

Btw,I went hiking at Gunung Bunga Buah yesterday,and suddenly raining heavily on the way downhill,my friend asked: You don't wanna bungkus your hp in plastic?", I said:"NO". Haha...I even took out my Defy to take photo under rain thumbup.gif

just OC it to 1Ghz,very stable no worry,set the voltage to even lower than your current setting,I use 300/20,600/32,1000/52,can increase battery life somemore.Lower voltage=better battery life(under volted won't burn your cpu) biggrin.gif
