I'm at McD at the moment, been using wifi on my SGS2 for about 2 and a half hours-now switched to my iPad cos battery left 50%

I'm pretty impressed by it smile.gif

Considering I've been switching To and fro between google+,twitter,ym,ebuddy,Facebook,surfing,playing music..I'd say that's pretty damn good.
Brightness set on auto,Bluetooth on, live wallpaper with widgets running.

In comparison right now my iPad is merely running the web browser sleep.gif tongue.gif

Go to the XDA Litening ROM site.  The instructions are quite clear how to upgrade from 2.0 -> 2.1 -> 2.2 via CWM.  Please follow the instructions.  Works for me.

Aiyo in lite'ning rom site only say "flash it via cwm" only

guys, do more research on 3G vs 2G first before blindly giving comment. Yes agree to the point of ferrarri theory but do you know what's the impact of turning on 3G permanently? if you are at full 3G coverage area then the impact on battery is minimum but if you are not, expect battery drain because your phone will tend to boost the signal lock down 3G network. That's the culprit of battery drain. i never say you cannot turn on 3G, turn on only when needed like surfing or downloading. 2G is more than enough for all the IMs or emails.

I agree, EDGE is good enough for MOST tasks, but do you know that in certain conditions, EDGE has a nasty tendency to block SMSes and calls from coming in while data is active? Read up on GPRS classes.

It's not a phone thing, it's a telco thing. It happened with my Nokias (E71, N97, 5800, N900) and my iPhone 4 - it WIILL happen with the SGS2 unless Celcom decides to CLASS A all their EDGE transmitters.

AND no, Maxis is NOT the answer, not with their current cekik darah billing practices.

Anyway, WHERE IS MY BATTERY CASE SAMSUNG OII. I bought the SGS2 because YOU were supposed to make a battery extender case for it.

Sigh.

OK. First you need to upgrade from 2.0 to 2.1 first via CWM. In CWM, Select FLASH UPDATE, then navigate to you SD_CARD where you put the download ZIP file. Select that file and CWM will do the flashing. REPEAT the same process for 2.2 update.

Done.

Do not unzip the files. just copy to SD card root directory.

The instruction is there. You have to read through the thread. I did.

I put my name in maxis klcc around the 24/25th of june and they only called me last Sunday .. Though the volume of bookings must be lower now so hopefully you can get the phone before the Friday deadline for discounted price

Sure you are looking at the right place in CWM? You should look at external_sdcard folder and not sdcard folder if you have put your file in the Sd-card.

did you ever tried to surf or check email using 2G network?..I dont think we can..you still need to turn on data network to check email or surf..regardless GPRS/3G...as GPRS is consider data..without enable data network, you can only used for call/sms..just tried just now.

guess you do not understand the definition of 2G. obviously data has to be enabled first and if your data is enabled and connected to 2G network (GPRS), i dont see the reason why you cant get push mail
