I plan to buy from Maxis actually...

May I know what Rom you are using now??
How come your battery is different from others?
Or just because your usage & settings different ?

Question here.

When you actually tilt the phone side ways at the menu icons there, my screen goes all black and except for the first column (only one icon there) which is like 5 apps incon on it at the same place.

What do you think is the problem? I tried flash litening again but seems same error. Hmm...

Any suggestions here?

Added photo.for your understanding...

Anyone knows how to set the MMS setting for Maxis? I tried to get it from Maxis by using the *100# but during installation it failed, and now I can't download the mms content.

and that's the reason we are getting smartphone for. as long as it can last the period we need it the most which is from morning till evening, i reli dun mind how many percent it drops. wat's the point for getting a SGSII, den scared of charging everyday then off wifi, off 3g, lowest brightness lvl, off gps etc, den y dun u get a budget phone dat can last u for one month instead? cool2.gif

LOL, so very true. Here the great idiot (or messiah, depending on your allegience) Jobs got the right idea by forcefully limiting stuff on the idiotphone. YES, we can do much less stuff on it, but on the other hand we can do it longer.

Android manufacturers on the other hand, is currently engaged in a war of specs, with little regard for battery life. It's like the Palm Winmo Symbian war all over again.

What they need to do is optimize. Optimize the OS for the hardware, the hardware to the OS. Problem is for us, right now its up to US to optimize everything, which is NOT the ideal situation. We should be TWEAKING, not OPTIMIZING all the time.

But with everyone locked in rat race for survival these days due to new Android phones popping up every day, I don't think any manufacturer has the time to. Or they might just be lazy or afraid to front the losses of increased R&D. OR they're busy focusing on other areas, like looks (the SGS2 could have been 2x thicker with a much huger battery and I would have still bought it).

AND Google need to put slightly more stringent conditions for an app to be accepted in the market. Apps that crap out your battery need to at least be labeled as such, and badly coded apps should just be booted out. Not Apple style dictatorship, just more control.

In the end, the greatest thing holding back the green robot platform rite now, IMHO, is NOT fragmentation (which is, contrary to what I was told to think prior to this is very much a non issue), and it's not even the Market situation (it's really not THAT bad, it's no App Store but it's more than enough).

It's optimization and balance.

I've that issue. It's more on Launcher Pro. When you rotate, just make a slight scroll, the icons will arrange back automagically.

UNLESS you have been collecting Android viruses from other computers - which is impossible - no.

The os is different. You CAN get autoload resident viruses if you use the SGS2 as a mass memory device, even then it would only affect other Windows computers you plug into - the phone wont be affected in any way.

anybody buying the samsung leather case for sgs2? saw it in queensbay mall at the maxis promo venue. its really cool as it replaces the battery backcover as well, and really thin. but it's really expensive, rm199 with free in-car charger + screen protector which shouldn't cost more than rm50. so rm149 for the case alone (but u cannot buy it alone). compare that to other branded leather case, it's not that expensive lah. but then u can get cheap leather case for rm30. rm199 can buy you 2 basic phones! and last time we don't even need to buy casing for phone! searched all over the internet and can't find the same leather case
