if you ever use 5 in dell streak you will find 4.3in too small
I still like the streak size

never used, was more towards mobile phone and not tablets.

u can see the evolution of phones....started very big in the 80's...then small...now getting bigger...sooner, people will be using netbook or laptop placing next to their head to make phone calls


i saw some people use their Tab or IPad to take pictures - very weird and funny

btw, is this phone stable cos it is quite new - as in 1st batch in m'sia

hmm...thinking of galaxy SL instead

it's got a few issues highlighted if u took the effort to read up the thread. rolleyes.gif

1) overheating due to thin plastic back cover - unsolvable. design problem.
2) yellow tinge at the bottom left - unsolvable. depends on luck.
3) pink spot during picture taking - camera firmware issues? to be determined.

4) speaker malfunction - isolated. 2 cases.

The overheating not a big issue right? I did notice mine was also 'warm' even on the surface after 15 minutes of gaming sessions - Stupid Zombies. (only realised when answering a call).

But then, within 5 minutes after, its cool down again.

it is an issue if you wish to make it an issue
as for me having use several Android it is not an issue. its warmness comparable to my previous htc incredible s at times slightly warmer
those who used to bberry n symbian will say is hot.
the thinness of the phone contribute to it too.
anyway u get used to it. I remember my first nexus one I felt hot too vs BLACKBERRY n windows phone. overtime I get use to it

leng zhai... how to install the batt mod? what custom rom you're using? coz i notice that your battery indicator has the percentage on it... which is what i've been finding for the past few days! sad.gif

thank you so much! smile.gif

that batt mod is for XXKF2 fw.
better flash the rom and there is a link in xda for the mod to work ... must flash via CWM

I dont have any fast batt drainage with the new fw ... but I have done some tweaking using Tegrak Overclock for GalaxyS II though

my Tegrak OC setting

Without the SGP Ultra Capsule i believe the heat will be more detectable. But since its cool down faster, i dont have issues with it.

Currently on stock ROMs. Maybe next month when i have some break i will try to root/freeze and sees the difference. Don't want to loose productivity time if something goes wrong. tongue.gif

from what i've understand and tried, it does get pretty hot after prolong usage of games and talking.
of course, it won't scald ur hands but not exactly comfortable either.

and on't think that by using a leather/plastic casing to protect ur hands will help.
instead it may become worse.

there might be a possibility that the extreme heat build up will be trapped by the casing.
at worse this will cause distortion of the thin plastic back cover.
perhaps the processor speed will drop in order to reduce the heat.

originally, samseng set the speed of the processor at 1 GHz but bcos of marketing reason they decided to overclock to 1.2 Ghz.
that may be the reason of extreme heat.

hopefully samseng's design team also considered the heat buildup after overclocking.

it's just like implanting a 2.4l engine into proton wira without improving the brakes system.

anyone tried putting their face into their PC's LCD monitor after the monitor's been running for 1hr?

how abt the same thing on LCD TV?

basically, heat from screen is sth on smart phones... not so obvious on smaller display phones since the display is smaller... and they generate less heat.

but here's sth to think about... glass can dissipate heat quite well... but when we put a SP over it... does is slow down the heat dissipation? smile.gif

again... i still dun get this 1st batch/ 2nd batch mentality... it may be true for the first batch in manufacturing process... but MY is not getting the first batch... this phone is already available in so many countries for a few weeks/ months...


Added on June 29, 2011, 11:02 amanyway, another Q... what freebies are buyers getting? or should i ask... what freebies are sellers throwing in for sgs2 purchase? are new buyers getting cheaper than RRP price or are you guys getting freebies like free BT sets, ori car chargers, etc?

Can ask? Do I use this to CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OJV_KF1-v4.0-CWM4 to root the original MY firmware?

hope u r not saying the great Samoled+ screen actually generate heats?

and secondly, u have given wrong analogy.
many ppl still do not use handsfree when making phone calls.

and thirdly,
the heat is from the overclocked proc by samseng. suppose the thin casing is able to dissipate the heat quick to avoid processor meltdown.
but heat is transferred to the human hand lor.
