Got my SGS II dy.. new onwer here.. exploring it.. tried to get infos from this thread, but wallauu so many pages to scroll on.. huhu...

haha ya lor.. 6 versions OMG! the phone just launched last week in Msia, for God sake!

things are quite fast here, i think should the manufacturers release their products here first in par with the US, UK etc..

i was just generally speaking of any gadget/device release.

hey guys.. regarding rooting. does root post any threat of malware, viral, backdoor or abusive activity to our device? coz its hacking, and we use tools developed by other hackers. afraid that other hackers will gain access to our device.

anyone mind to reply?

can claim for warranty meh if got screen issue? samsung will replace it or not? anyone hv tried to argued with SME?

woott! just realize that my name is on #157 on the userlist made by Uncle Benny.. i tot i was number thousands.. LOL..

i think TS should take note on this issue and pin the solution/comment on the front page.

Guys.. a few issue i would like to ask here.

1. i feels my SGS II a bit choppy, especially while browsing web will full destop view. is this common to others here, or just ne?

2. Can we reduce the size of the touch keyboard? It takes half of the screen while vertical, but thats ok, but it covers almost full screen when i turned it to horizontal to type! I cant even hardly see what im typing

3. battery drains so fast. I can say significantly faster than my iphone 4 (compared while browsing web). And maybe drains faster then my last DHD if i recalled it right. i just browsing for quite sometime, then i will start to worry about the juices left.

Do we need official receipt in order to claim warranty from samsung?

i've been searching around for infos regarding battery issues. i found some interesting facts, maybe some of u already knows it, but here goes for some who did'nt aware:

The major CULPRIT that causes battery drains is the WIDGETS!! apparently the radios (data, wifi, bluetooth) are not responsible to drank all the juices. Test has been done (see in the source) and found that battery drains almost gone after widgets were removed.

anyway, can anybody share where can i download the stock/official ROM for our local Msia device? not sure if i just read wrongly, but i can't find it.

im still using Digi unlimited internet plan, bought the SGS II without subscription to Maxis plan, now enjoying internet so much.. i tell ya, Youtube never stuck even a bit while streaming! and i watch video streaming almost everyday.

hmm.. but i compared too, did not notice any diff.. maybe it depends on places, coz ya Digi lack of coverage. but if u r in a good coverage, its just similar. but, unlimited data with low coverage; or Godspeed but will running out of quota in the middle of the month (more expensive summore), i definitely choose the first option.

im getting Barely There to.. already purchase, waiting for shipment to arrive tmrw..

which one is the better way of rooting: using Chainfire 4.0 or Supercurio 3?

any issue on any of the kernel for the two methods? will root my SGS II this weekend. yuhhuu..

Talking bout nandoid backup.. I remember lastime while im having DHD, we always perform nand backup prior to rooting, in order to enable us to restore the phone to stock. Without the nand vackup, we cannot restore to stock. Thus, wasn't it necessary to perform nand backup for the stock kernel for SGS II?

Sorry if I got the concept wrong.
