bingo, most new custom roms lidat wan, coz those foreigners will wake up if the phone fin charging middle of night and got sound

AGREE!! live wallpapers drains battery but i still use it, why? coz its AWESOME!

no need upgrade upgrade. i dont advise you to root/flash unless you're a tech geek or have some probs. The phone itself is already very very cool

S2

Ipad2

dont have data for htc sensation, nobody cares lol
and iphone 4 loses like hell
take note that ipad2 has a higher resolution, but if you count how much % higher is the resolution compared to sgs2 and compare how much better the sgs2 scores are, you'll find the Quad-core Mali-400 gpu isnt bad at all

based on experience, i've been using lite-ning since 2.0 and litening usually got reboot wan, but now i using cognition never once got reboot.

u using lite-ning 6.1? there's a high chance you will enter bootloop no matter what rom you flash, so you can try straight cognition, if bootloop stock-->cognition, if bootloop again, then u need wipe wipe, then straight flash cognition, wiping sure works but that's the last resort option.

Added on August 30, 2011, 9:42 pm1.9k u can get for 1.8k i heard. you open the phone, inside will have lots of stickers, under the battery etc, see if got any msia sirim stickers not, not necesary muz be sirim, as long its any msia related. Ask him for his sgs2 box, if the box got blue sticker written Samsung then its ori lor.

SME usually wont care where u got it from, ap or ori still can masuk kilang as long as u keep your cool and dont look suspicious

Anyone can recommend a good messenger that lets me sign in to fb/msn/google/yahoo etc?
i'm using nimbuzz but i cant sign in to msn >.< and ebuddy is like wakelock parasite



yaa msia sgs2 dun have the chinese language interface, ask he can live with it or not. if he wants to see chinese words in songs, then maybe he can try ttpod or qqplayer or mixzing or any of those chinese made players, they're quite good actually. if he cant live with it, then he has to flash the hong kong firmware

enable r/w mode

thanks! seems to be good so far =)

Supercurio released a dev snapshot of his Voodoo Screen tuning App! it's still in dev stage, worst than Alpha & Beta Stage but it's working!
Some has mentioned that it has gotten rid of the ugly sharpening, colour banding and yellow tint/discolouration on left side!

hmm i din touch the configuration at all, i oni remember that ebuddy always appear in better battery stats wakelocks

every time? exactly 30 mins? i think its something to do with the phone's wifi sleep policy settings, but i dont know where to change it, try google

u flash back stock kernal to remove the yellow triangle right? naturally you will lose cwm

hahas flashing back stock kernal will leave you with root but not cwm, if u wan cwm juz flash back cf-root, u cna use a jig to remove the yellow triangle, there's another way to do that using cwm and flashing zimage but i didnt learn that method

you're on stock rom? modem version kf1 or is it KG

means u never flash your firmware before? not rooted? then u better dont do so, go to samsung and get it fixed instead

have you flashed custom rom or not? if you have, just change the modem la, to other versions or to the latest KH3

Hello guys, i've been using WIFI DIRECT since the past few days with my sis' sgs2, and i can say i'm damn impressed, 140mb of files transfered in less than 30 secs! and this was done in a restaurant, no router needed! seriously this is the future of connectivity, bluetooth lose la, wifi direct is going to be the boss but sadly there a few formats that they dont support, eg. xml format, gonna do some research/testing & find if there's an app to make transferring simpler then i'll report to you guys here again

wakelock is where your phone dont go to deep sleep/idle mode. In battery usage you will see screen off but the phone is still awake. Apps cause wakelocks when they request are active. Yes, do not use task managers to close, especially facebook, i once close it b4 i sleep, wake up left 15% and wakelocks is due to facebook.katana , install betterbatterstats i believe it's in the market since a few days ago v0.9

if you ask means you didnt read page 1
if u ask means you didnt bother to look at the reviews/video reviews
if you ask means you dont care about specs and only care about how 'good' is the phone

slow? SLOW???? dude this phone is the BEAST!!!Its wolverine!! other androids go 'disable animations to make it faster blablbla' but no! the SGS2 can run fluid with all that animatiosn on! This is as fluid as the iphone i tell you, and its running with all the widgets and screens. Websurfing? the stock browser is GPU hardware accelerated, the quad-core mali-400 gpu is keeping it as smooth as tetek! and of coz, the phone will reset if you do some stuffs like put in illegal apks, flash roms, its very normal, but lately never happened to me once i flash cognition. Problems you might want is the heat only when playing seriously powerful games, cpu+gpu=super hot, but dont worry put on a cover and u can barely feel it. Another is battery problem, thing runs on 1.2ghz dual core, comparable to those netbooks shitmyx gives off, its super powerful and super battery hungry, but it's still better than htc
ohwell i'd say get the evo3D, at least u have 3D to show off for awhile

i believe your settings>apps>running apps is actually running services correct? First it was my mistake, i typed too fast. You must not close the services in the settings, you can close the apps in the Task Manager that comes with the phone other task managers from the market and also GO task manager will close services. Close the services at your own risk, you can use betterbatterystats to determine what causes the wakelocks then next time learn your lesson and dont close that service before you sleep lor.

YES, in theory only ONE phone is needed to have WIFI-Direct then other phones that have normal wifi can connect to it through ad-hoc but i havent tried this before.
As for the SGS2 it can only detect other phones that are also in WIFI-Direct mode, which is why i used another SGS2. Wifi direct can transfer files at wifi network speed up to 250Mbps as far as 200M depending on your phone's hardware of course. It can transfer anything, if you have TV or electronics that support WiFi-Direct, you can straight play lets say the movie, right from your phone with one click.

Wifi-Direct first came out with the Samsung Galaxy S last year. right now many stuffs has wifi-direct, some smartphones has it, LG, htc incredible s none, sensation i not sure, some laptops got wifi direct also.

sound quality lose lor, it's not good, there's ways in xda forums that tells how to make it better but in the end, its just equalizer, dont expect too much from this phone, in my opinion its ok la, not super good, but quite nice to hear once you set the equalizers. there's no Voodoo support for the SGS2 unlike the SGS, so the sound cant do much about it, if youre an audiophille, this will hurt your ears. Best you go and try see see, coz audio quality depends on the listeners, got some people in xda forums like the sound coming from the sgs2 some dont, some their shure headphones sounds better with the sgs2. Loudness to me i have no problem la, some people complain the ringtone not loud enough tho.
