Cis, confuse me for no reason. So back to my question. If I bring my phone back to Malaysia, will I be able to use the HSPA from Maxis? The US forum says due to different signal or some shit i cant get the HSPA from T-mobile. Only get the EDGE. Was wondering if same thing will happen in Malaysia.

should work fine. both T-mobile and msia operator (maxis, umobile, celcom) are running on 2100 Mhz.

wow... posted one post, left for like a few hours, and lost track of my last post. hehehe... rolled back and found some questions that maybe needed a lil' clarification from my part:

fluid would mean the ux. experience is important. you must feel like the phone is keeping up with your interactions and you're barely/never noticing any sign of the phone NOT able to keep up i.e. lagging or stuttering. i've seen the same duo core phones like the sensation and optimus 2x and though smooth also, they are not as seamless lets say in the browser as the SGSII. The ux in the SGSII especially when playing in-site flash HD videos definitely is smooth. SMOOTH without compromising the ux.

apps free? no? to tell you the truth, if one can afford to buy an RM2.4k+ IP4 and go cheap on the paid apps, that person isn't the best person to gauge the usability of it. i was looking at a perspective as you really don't see that as a problem because you've already invested in it so much. true, the android market has more free apps but that's not what i was highlighting. i was highlighting the dependency of the device to apps. IP4 almost 100% depends on apps. there's no other way to use the phone. for android, BESIDES apps, you can fiddle with other things.

i didn't mean to say apps in fruitytutti are better than robomojo.

Hi,

i plan to root sgs2 tonight. After reading the first page + the xda links, i think i need to recap what i understand before i start doing it. Worry i might do some mistake.

Anyway, i've read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056334 and also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399 .

Correct me if i'm wrong. In order for me to root the phone, i will need to follows the second link as it superseded the first link.

the steps are:-
Instructions - ODIN (long)
- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!
- Unzip the attached CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.zip
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.tar
- Put your phone in download mode
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure repartition is NOT checked
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot
- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)

is that correct? does this mean i don't need to use SuperOneClick ?

Appreciate any advice received.

thanks!

Any1 facing the problem of swyping a contact to the left would not lead you to message panel?

Previously, in the Call Logs, I can swype it left to a specific contact and go to the message window. But yesterday I tried it, it doesn't. It just show a green bar showing message and after that still remain at there.

No, you don't need to use SuperOneClick.
When you flash CF-root kernel it will give you root, superuser, busybox and CWM4

That's odd. Are you using stock or custom rom? Did you download any messaging apps like handcent?

RM1349 is for 2 years contract. i bought mine at rm1599 for 1 year contract. On top of that, you will need to advance payment of RM368 (RM300 upfront and also RM68 for first month bill which then the total will be slowly reimburse in your monthly bills). That means, for me, i paid RM1967.
