The shop at Subang Square (Mobile care shop .. something like this ) selling AP RM850 at lelong.com.my

Fyi, my wife's Defy AP bought from that shop also. But we go direct, not buy from web.

that part takper, as long as the water don't enter the battery compartment then can already. If you noticed, the seal is around the battery compartment only. The camera and speakers are already sealed out smile.gif

edit: wait.... did you mean it ENTERED the camera? rclxub.gif

yeah the phone is water and shock RESISTANT, not PROOF

2 different things. one means can tahan more than your normal stuff, the other one means its indestructable doh.gif

and water resistance wise, i installed my old screen protector with the phone underwater for a good couple of minutes laugh.gif

shock proof wise, my phone fell countless of times already. And a few times it fell on tarmac. Once was coz i was playing with the gun app and i hit my friend's hand while pretending to be a sniper and the phone landed onto the tarmac and nothing happened other than a few scratches LOL laugh.gif

gonna install CMIUI soon. If that doesn't work for me, will try rewamped after that laugh.gif

Btw, heres a quick fix for some of the old Defy's out there with pretty worn back cover locking mechanism laugh.gif Mine had the tendency to self-open while in my pocket sometimes and that causes problems doh.gif

user posted image

Tools needed: small blade, eraser

instructions: Cut a black eraser until you get the perfect sized piece and jam it at the gap in the slider. Test by forcefully pushing the slider open. If it fails, make another one and make sure the edges are sharp. Voila! You've got a battery cover double lock laugh.gif

well, battle scars since January i bought the phone tongue.gif laugh.gif

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


And yes, that scratch is the screen itself, not a screen protector. Who says Gorilla Glass is scratch-proof? I'm still running my phone naked though even with the scratches on the screen. Just feels better that way. The bare screen i mean, not the scratches tongue.gif laugh.gif

The scratches on the body mostly caused by falls onto tarmac. A few times from table, a few times when i was playing with the gun app, and a few more times when coming out from my car doh.gif

And the back actually looks pretty good if you don't look at it too closely laugh.gif

Btw, speaking of battery, Battery Monitor Widget just reported my battery as having only 952mAh of capacity compared to 1500mAh of the battery! cry.gif No wonder my battery life had been bad. doh.gif

Don't forget 720p recording also depends on the camera unit that you have. Theres 2 types which are usually differentiated by green lens and red lens.

You look at your camera directly and if the reflection is green, yours can't record in HD sad.gif

Apparently, the project will be dead. Last night I damaged the famous pds partition (mmcblk1p7), and before that I did not a backup. I have not had time to take a closer look on the check thing, but rebooting after installing any .sbf indicates on formatted pds partition...

anybody knows the cost of replacing the glass screen?

what luck. My flashlight which is a Lumintop TD-15X with a stainless steel bezel, landed directly with the bezel facing down, on the corner of my beloved defy! cry.gif

screen and touchscreen works flawlessly though.
