color banding is considers a common issue on amoled panel.. it's just the matter of how obvious it is.. if it's too obvious, then u should send for rma and hopefully luck is on your side when u receive the replacement..

I usually take about 1 to 1.5 hours average on Streamyx
An important tip : When you have finish download, ALWAYS , ALWAYS do a manual unzip to make sure your downloaded file is not corrupted and all files are successfully extracted. The downloaded file could be corrupted if it takes too long to download and your flash will be unsuccessful

Just to share with you guys my temporary solution to ensure I have a longer battery life. This is good for emergency use. When attached to the SGS II it serves better as a spare battery when your battery life on phone runs down. As with most of such chargers, when you are using the phone with it - it charges slowly at same time. So is better to use it when the phone battery is at low levels

This micro USB external battery pack fits perfectly to the base of the SGS II. Its psecs : 1900mAh with output 5.0V 800MA

See the pics below and see its size relative to the phone

[attachmentid=2239186][attachmentid=2239188]

I bought it from EBAY at US $9.69 inclusive delivery to Msia ; delievry took 8 days

http://cgi.ebay.com.my/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...ME:L:OU:MY:1123

It can be charge using any generic USB-mini USB cable or USB-micro USB cable. It is NOT advisable to charge it while attached to the phone. As I just recieve it today, I noted it was quite fully charge. Will test and drain it completely and see how long is the charging time

Bro : Did you at least google and readup what is MyBackupPro and Titanium Backup ?? Read and understand their features if you wish to use these apps. Don't shoot in the dark. Google is your best friend

In ABC terms :

MyBackUppro is good app to backup all your 3rd party apps and your data Contacts, Calendar, SMS, MMS, Call lgs etc etc ( you will be shown a list of what it will backup ). The backup will give you 2 choices - Apps or Data. So you need to do two times if you wish to backup both. If your phone is rooted, all associated settings/data of any app will be backup too. Restore of apps/data is 100 % reliable and accurate

Titanium Backup is a more powerful backup/restore app. Your phone must be rooted to use it. Launch the app and be amaze by the many options/types of backups/restore you can do. I'd not recommend this for a beginner unless you know what you are doing. This is especially so when you want to restore

You don't use KIES to root. KIES is only to install USB drivers for the phone and for syncing your stuffs with computer ( if you wish to do such)
You use ODIN to flash rom/kernel/root your phone. Pease read page 1 post # 4 on roms flashing for all the links to root, flash firmware etc etc

What you have in phone is KIES AIR - this is aWiFI PC to Phone connection . To get it connected to PC your phone must be in WiFi mode and the phone will show you a URL which you need to key in PC browser. My advise is always DUMP KIES ; don't even use it to sync your stuffs - you will die waiting for it to succeed

How much you guys bought the amazing phone?
