I tried the setting for Maxis MMS posted on the first page, but I need to enable 'use packet data' in order to receive mms (else it'll say 'currently unable to download'), and it's consuming my money. Did I do something wrong? What's your setting for MMS and WAP?

i remember in one of the 7 sgs 2 threads theres someone who posted a link about an app that has a notification for sms when the phone is in sleep mode. anyone can tell me what app is that?

Ps: forgive me.. searching 'notification' google and the past 7 threads wasnt really effective for me..

darn...still confuse on how to flash my SGS2 as specified below :

MALAYSIA SET
-----------------
PDA : I9100 XWKF1
PHONE : I9100 DXKF1
CSC : I9100 OLBKE5
BUILD INFO : SAT JUN 4 18:09:49 KST 2011
--------------------------------------------------------------
Model : I9100
Android Vers : 2.3.3
Baseband Vers : I9100DXKF1
Kernel Vers : 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF1-CL265340 root@DELL106 #2
Build Number : GINGERBREAD.XWKF1


coz i feel this firmware is much too laggy and sometimes it force closes apps. I've intended to upgrade by kies but nothing happen, and now i need to learn to flash manually using odin but still confuse on which firmware must i use.

Guys, i really2 appreciate your guidance bout this...my phone seems to need and firmware update due to the fail in smoothness by its stocked firmware since i bought it and its a bit sluggish plus damm oftenly slightly displayed a round cycle of loading symbol everytime i switch from one apps to the other apps.....

please....i really appreciate your effort and helps...thank you in advance.

Best Regards,

So, quick reviews are in order.

S-Line Grey Translucent - Cheap. Fit is okay and cutouts are acceptable. Side patterns are a great plus, as they add oodles of grip. The semi matte back means that it's not really a fingerprint magnet, and there's just enough transparent bits to show off the back of your SGS2. Buttons are stiff and hard to press though. Material likely to yellow over time. USB port a bit cramped, did not fit my USB-OTG wire without some adjustments.

Epikcase Jet Black - Cheap and generally similar to the above, except that it's glossy black and attracts fingerprints like moths to an open flame. The plain black feels and looks a tad boring. Has the the cramped USB issue too.

SGP Ultra Capsule - Except for two glaring faults and the fact that it's a fingerprint magnet, this is a work of art. Cutouts are examplary and the glittery finish feels exclusive. Buttons are super easy to use too. The USB port cutout is roomy and can fit everything.

Now, for the bad part - the thing is loose. Not so loose that your SGS2 will fall off, but if you're a like me, the looseness can be felt clearly and it WILL drive you nuts. Secondly, the lanyard hole is tiny and a hassle to use (I had to mutilate mine). Also, the corner hole is a disaster waiting to happen.

BUT, keep in mind we ARE technically using cases for the wrong phone as far as SGP is concerned. I'll be eagerly waiting for the world spec SGS2 cases from SGP.

SGP Ultra Optics - This is a WONDERFUL SP. It's even better then my old PowerSupport Matte on my old i4. It's darned clear and you never really see fingerprints on your screen. It's also matte enough to not reflect your own face while you're typing.

BUT, keep in mind that if you're the type of person to type while looking REALLY close at your screen (or just the particular type), the ultra optics have a very, very fine grid pattern to it, which is probably the microlense array itself.

On our not so retina screens, it's not really THAT noticeable however.

Samsung Battery and Charger - Samsung original korean spec batteries, with near field communications written on the back - and no it doesn't magically enable NFC lol. The battery charger also doubles as a stand, nice. I got from exportprive.com.

could you please share what values you use for each profile for SetCPU and also tegrak?

i think i might have put mine too low on SetCPU today, phone went to deep deep sleep and wouldn't wake up!

with enabling setcpu while screen off ... didnt put my sgs2 in deep sleep ... & cannot wake up.

to see ur cpu behavior ... pls use CPU Spy ---> https://market.android.com/details?id=com.bvalosek.cpuspy

BTW a tip to forumers if u find ur android dev hangs or cannot wake up ... to reboot just press Power + Vol Up till it reboot itself.

Since there is no LED indication ... use NoLED apps -->https://market.android.com/details?id=com.led.notify

Just don't set your bottom end to 200mhz, set it to 500mhz, it will still deep sleep.
