cant seem to get odin to open up on my wife's windows 7 laptop. Just pop out a window and a short glimpse of odin then closes. What could be the problem? (sorry ya, i m not well verse with windows base pc, pinjam laptop just to flash)

Wow thanks guys for the prompt reply at 3am haha

Thanks, will work on that.

Thanks guys for the earlier advice on how to get the odin working. Manage to flash to lite'ning 1.4 but battery seems to be draining faster then my stock haha. Will let it run a couple of days and see if it sets in.

yup same here, running on lite'ning rom and the battery drains lightning fast too.

So far i have not tested other roms you mentioned so i cant really give any comparison. Simply comparing it with stock rom, i think the litening is way smoother running Go Launcher. So far, i m getting 8 hours of medium usage (2 push mails, FB, whatsapp and 30 mins surfing) with 62% juice remaining for today. For me, as long as the phone can last a good 10 hours, i m fine with it.... can always charge it when i m home.

Anyway benny, since u seem to be very well versed with smartphones, would you be kind enough to look into one issue i m facing? Upon check the battery status, it shows that the Android OS is taking up 33%. Is it normal? Thanks in advance.

I have both sgs2 and arc (wife's phone). I have to say both cameras are on par and takes great pictures.

The arc has better noise control over the sgs2 while on the other hand the sgs2 has better color saturation and fast focusing speed. Overall, both are good for normal day use.
