guys and ladies - deja vu - when we had this thread from version 1-3 or 4 we had the guys trying out the phones AP set - then the second wave from maxis which took a lot of new happy owners in, from v 5 to almost 10. then in v10 ending we had digi new owners coming in. The thing to laugh is the almost identical questions coming in. No offence, just my observation, looking at the posts

Just got my S II today. Awesome Android phone indeed!

I've refrained from testing the phone for some time already. But just so happened I got the chance to do so today. Immediately am surprised at how smooth the navigation of the menu's are, given Samsung's past reputation with the S I and the Tab P1000. So hooked am I to the device that I immediately purchased it!

TS, please add me to the ever growing user list. Thanks!

U know what is the worst part ? Is when they asked a question and then when " kena tembak " , they will reply " i just wanna confirm if the method if right or not . It's not like I never read " . . . . . What is there 2 confirm ? Who knows better on how to flash the rom than the developer himself ....

Unfriendly ? I dont blame Benny for losing his temper . Some of the questions r so blardy stupid . Just download the instruction manual from the net or ask from the seller for a copy , spend a few minutes going thru and end of it , u dun have to make yourself look like a " spoon-fed idiot " asking for a solution

For CM7 , after doing all 3 wipes and install the rom , u will get a boot loop after u restart , stuck at the samsung logo with the yellow triangle ..... When this happens , turn off the hp , reboot into recovery and install the rom again . The 2nd reboot will be successful . . . . . . . Unless they manage to solve this , this is the method to flash up to version-7

Damn, I just eye witnessed 1 ant crawls into my phone USB port.
I didn't want to touch it when it is near because I afraid I might push it into the port, end up it crawls inside itself, and never want to come out.

Worry about the consequences now, I don't know where the ants come from, at first I thought it was the place I put it on, but after I moved it to 2-3 different places to 'store' it, ants still crawling!!

I hate ants! They like my laptop too!!

destEX : bro , u r using SpeedGrey kernel right ? With Cognition ROM ? R u using the Release version or which version ? Coz with Release version , I get into a deep sleep and need 2 remove batt

A general noob question : Does kernel effect our 3G connection ? Certain kernels like Ninph kernel , i get only EDGE but at the same location , I get 3G with Angelom 15 or 16

Sigh, after googling around to no avail, I guess the only way is to send my S2 to a service centre.

I searched using Samsung Malaysia site. KL region has 2 centres - Lowyat and Midvalley. Anyone been there or know if both centres offer screen display replacement?

My phone is running on Batista's ROM. Just bought it yesterday. Do I need to flash back to stock ROM before sending the phone in?

Thank you!

go to Petaling Jaya service center ...... Those 2 if I'm not mistaken is collection center but u can check it out . The 1 in Petaling Jaya is the HQ . . . Same row as Avon , along Federal Highway , next to Mazda showroom . If there is a replacement ready , u can ask for express service which u have to wait for a while , depending on their schedule

You should check this out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X15wf3T43-A

Performance wise SGS2 comes out strong, however the difference isn't marginal. It is just a matter of what you want, 3d or 2d? For me I find 3D to be useless. The only person that can view your 3D pictures is yourself and a few friends who have EVO 3D. 3D pictures arent so clear anyway imo (not speaking from experience but from the youtube videos of the pictures). I would rather have a single 8mp cam that can record 1080p video, and good quality pics that I can share with my friends family rather than going 3D.
*
Yes , the pictures and videos r not clear in Youtube coz u r watching it from a 2D point .... From the unit , its clear but cant comment much on Evo 3D as I never seen the actual unit . The disadvantage of a 3D pictures or video is u have to view it from a certain angle , 45 degrees or somewhere there 2 have a clear view or else it will look like u go to watch a movie in the cinema without the 3D glasses .
