Upgraded to 2.3.6, what I found is:
- Dial and Memo icon changed
- Over scroll glow effect
- Home screen page can roll back to 1st after last
- Main menu can zoom out? Like home screen
- Performance improved a little, but i got not much difference on quadrant score sad.gif

Now I had wifi issue, it sometimes disconnected then connect back and sometimes won't connect back unless I restart it.

Any noticeable difference?

Most stock apps runs faster, better battery life.
But TouchWiz slowed...especially on unlock screen.

Not really after I restart the router till now...it is stable.
Just sometime felt the wifi range is smaller compare to last time.

I just had it few months, but it is really more than enough to me~
My 3 main thing already satisfied me:
- Good sound on calling
- Good battery life
- Smooth(just kick off TouchWiz then ok liao laugh.gif)
- Notes

Battery life in 2.3.6 really improve, no joke. I had my phone max volume alarm everyday, few sms and note taking then I still have 35% for 4 days.

Previous time with 2.3.4 I hit 6 days max but just look check time and alarm everyday.

So now u use other launchers for quite a while edi right? No unlock lag at all ah? Cuz I use go launcher/launcher pro/zeam launcher all still lag rclxub.gif just that not as bad as samsung home
*
I use LauncherPro now, the unlock lag is very rare and not as lag as TouchWiz, other thing is working good just sometime the launcher disappear and left dock there, simply scroll will go back to normal...could be launcher bug.

Possible some other apps hog your phone....

If stick it on the flat surface of the back then it's ok, but the back got the curve part...dunno how Cosef's gonna stick nicely. Maybe need to cut or... ? Hmm...

Made some tests since i got some left over here...result is bad...it just hard to stick the side round edges but i'm not sure whether 3M carbon fibre sticker will be that much more flexible for it or not. sad.gif

I just able to cover up the battery cover area. cry.gif

I was imagine something like this:

I used matte black sticker, and the 3M carbon fibre sticker I mentioned actually flexible like skin also, can use hair dryer to soften and stick it one.

Forgotten the price, I bought 2x1 feet and used to stick my mouse and some other stuff.
You can try search in automotive garage in trade zone, coz it originally used to stick car one.
