hello guys

im probably getting my phone tomorrow(today.haha)
so im wondering which custom ROM is the best(in ur opinion and why?)
i've read all the custom roms and what they have to offer and i think Cognition sounds really good. and also VillainRom.
does any of these roms have unlocking methods other than the stock(swipe the screen one)?

thanks in advance! =D

So far as i know, no Rom can offer unlocking screen other than the default one (yet) but you can use 3rd party app for that. Here's a snapshot for your reference

aww thats a shame...but urs looks pretty good too! much better than the default one (imo laa)

My stock Video App isnt working..cant play any videos..
downloaded QQ player and tried playing some videos and it works! but i'd much rather use the stock video app! will have to send it to a Samsung Service center to check i guess..

and 1 more thing, when connected to my laptop via mass storage, when i want to transfer those videos, at the end of the transfer, suddenly my Windows Explorer will crash and have to restart..
Do u think there's a virus on my SGS2?!? zzzz

Been mentioned b4 since the 1st day it was launched .... Should b sw issue as most ppl have in only in Video-mode but no pink spot in camera mode .

yeap im aware of this issue, but its not affected on ALL phones, just an unlucky bunch..
my previous SGS2 AP didnt have this, so im kinda shocked that my ori SME phone has this issue - in camera mode AND video mode..
will be calling Samsung to see what they can do regarding this..

Understand the coverage is important but below is my $$ analysis.

Maxis RM88-RM10 (rebate) + RM30 =RM108 x 24 = RM2,592 + RM799 (if u r lucky) =RM3,391

Got iDigi88 and sell off the fruit

iDigi RM88 x 24 = RM2,112 + RM2,099 =RM4,211

Let re-calculate. iDigi offers 3g data so does Maxis (but digi unlimited).....  iDigi offers 450 min + 400 sms + 50 mms to Maxis none.
Assume we make the same amount of call minutes, sms and mms on Maxis plan.

Maxis RM88-RM10+RM81(450 min x RM0.18)+RM40(400smsxRM0.10)+RM12.5(50xRM0.25) - RM30(pay for call under maxis plan) = RM181.50 x 24 mth = RM4,356 + RM799 (or whatever promo price for 24 mth) = RM5,155 (call&sms&mms charges is within maxis network) or RM5,555 (promo price RM1,199) or RM5,755 (aftr promo price).

Digi remained at RMRM4,211 for same amt of call+sms+mms. Bear in mind that Digi data is unlimited while maxis charges when over 3g.
Even i purchase the phone at RM2,099, I might gt free gifts like sd card, car charger and bluetooth which worth couple of hundred RM at least.

If we did not make any call, sms & mms under maxis plan then Maxis is cheaper.

Maxis RM3,391 (phone RM799) vs IDigi RM4,211 ..........Digi more x by RM820 provided we don make extra call,sms,mms

If under Maxis we made same amt of call,sms&mms as IDigi offers then

Maxis RM5,155 (phone RM799) vs iDigi RM4,211..........Maxis more x by RM944
Maxis RM5,555 (phone RM1,199) vs iDigi RM4,211..........Maxis more x by RM1,344
Maxis RM5,755 (phone RM1,399) vs iDIgi RM4,211..........Maxis more x by RM1,544

Hope my analysis is accurate and useful for you guys that still undecided what to get.

very nice analysis there. hopefully it helps the guys who are still undecided
kudos bro!

Wrong, it has been years for read/write support for ntfs in Linux through ntfs-3g module. The right module just has to be ported into the kernel.
