finally got my unit from senq, uncle benny please add my name to list.

sgs2 + rm2099
plusone membership + rm12
member discount - rm50
pwp sd card & bluetooth + RM99
6 mth installment + RM0

and get a umbrella and a football from lucky draw.

first impression, the phone is so thin and light,
couldn't really feel it in pocket and feels like it can easily break into 2 pieces, lol  sweat.gif
and opening the rear cover can be a nightmare...

also facing 2 times suddenly screen turn black and need to power on again on the way back to home,
but the battery is not really empty, now charging 8hr and hope that will not happen again.  unsure.gif

and a question, where can check our phone born country?
i found made in china for the battery, but the phone itself only wrote "made by samsung" well who don't know it's not made by htc =.="
even the box didn't write anything...

currenly using this funny casing lol

Kinda feel this thread is getting more and more rubbish questions.

Anyways, incase anyone is wondering..

I tested both Lite-ning 2.0 and Villain 2.0. For me, i still prefer Villain. I thought of going to Lite-ning as usually that rom does not have problems with the stock browser but it seems the dev even removed the stock browser and replaced it with SkyFire which i feel its totally crap
*
Im about to flash Litening 2.0, do u means the stock browser in Litening 2.0 has been replaced by Skyfire?

This is not an issue at all . You can download the browser.apk file from Litening thread . Use Root explorer - copy the browser.apk file to /system/app
Reset phone and browser is installed , named Internet. I have google it for you ....You cannot click on apk to install

just noticed... cases for sgs2 usually leave the top right corner (when the phone is facing you) 'open'.

i'm using sgp's ultra silke and if i'm not mistaken, an unfortunate drop on this angle should actually hit the phone rather than the casing.

checked the manual and it does not mention of any sensors there... any reason why case makers leave that portion 'open'? i checked a few other cases for sgs2 and its the same thing.
*
That's why i avoid to purchase casing from Korea, other US & Hong Kong brands (eg. Casemate, Otterbox, Pdair etc) did not has this 'opening'.

if your phone spoilt because it dropped on the floor so accurately on the top right corner, go buy lottery...

btw where's our antenna located then?
*
If not mistaken, that 'Antenna' for the opening is TV antenna for Korean version, for the phone antenna, it is located at the bottom of the phone.

Just to clarify.
There are 2 variants of this phone over in Korea. One being SK/KT release which does not have the antenna and the other LG+ which has DVB support (aka TV) and the need to have the antenna port. The bulk of the S2 users here in Korea are the SK/KT users.

Not all Korean cases are built to have the antenna opening and likewise not all Korean cases are designed to cover all.
*
Then u should bring in those case without opening.

Ok noted. Just curious. If the rooting fails to do so, is there some problems that i need to know? Bricking the phone for example

Honestly this phone is very hard to brick, always there are alternative solution to recover it, for instant, get yourself a JIG.
