It's more on luck. Warranty is added bonus for protection. Now, I'm a bit more careful on purchasing phone coz the hassle for warranty claim is unbearable.

I sold my HTC Desire coz of warranty claims (twice) and the quality of work that SIS provided is not up to par (refurbished parts).

One more thing, if you still have warranty. Better sell it to individual rather than the phone shop (seller) coz they will take it at market value (+ item age) and doesn't care much on warranty thingy.

Just flash Chainfire kernel and subsequently use Superoneclick to root it. Process is quite straightforward and simple
Self explanatory instructions here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056334

With root , one can now :

1. Use apps that need root eg Titanium Backup ( backup n restore roms, apps , dat etc ), screenshot apps, battery calibration apps etc
2. Access paid apps Market to get more free apps and to buy paid apps
3. When available, can flash kernels and roms

I'm waiting the jig to remove those flash counter and triangle boot up screen. See weather it works as claimed by XDA.

Yup, no point wasting your time and money to drive down to KLIA. Some more need to visit SIRIM for the sticker.

This is my assumption on 2.8K set.

Assuming they got it at 2.3K, most likely since they cannot buy it directly at reseller price from Samsung UK since they are not a registered company in UK (assumption only).

Next, the phone has a Sirim sticker, so another RM200 there. Total now 2.5K

Since they brought in 30 sets, Kastam will sure notice this. If they got charged, so 10% of the invoice cost ~RM230. Total price = 2.730K.

It either they make RM70 (I doubt it hahahah) or they somehow knows how to bypass the Kastam or SIRIM or both. Or they really got special price from UK.

This is just an assumption.

Where did you put your phone?
Maybe someone else take it any play around with it?
I doubt it came with the scratch, must be some accident.

+1. It maybe an accident coz Samsung has lenglui to check the phone (When I see the picture again, one question popped in my head... does the lenglui has cross eyes? biggrin.gif )

I will wait for telco to bring in. Now still don't have any data plan which fell rather useless taking smartphone.

Go for Digi if you're not particular on the 3G coverage because of the cheapest unlimited data.

Celcom for a good data management (they cut off you data when you reached your quota, need confirmation).

Maxis if you wanted to have good coverage with bill of shock.

Anyway, I'm not siding to any telco. I'm using Maxis with the 8 years old data package.

On one end you'll save a few quids, on the other end you'll have local AP warranty (at least you can have someone to tembak when it comes for warranty) biggrin.gif

One SIRIM Permit Rm250 can be used for import up to 3 phones ( that was 2009, now not too sure )

If this rule still apply today, then they can make an extra ~RM116 for each device. nod.gif
