It doesn't matter which firmware you use. Your phone will still release heat as long as you use it. No firmware can make your phone 'cold'. ~~ duhh ~~
P/S - Yes any firmware is okay to be flash except China one.

I wanna ask...is Maxis centre still running out of stock for SGS2? I wanna get SGS2 under Maxis data plan

Should be.

When I went to SenQ today, there was no more stock. But luckily 1 guy didn't need his unit yet. It was reserved so it came to me instead. Left happy biggrin.gif

I don't think Maxis should have any stock left. Its selling very well.

That's interesting. How many people here use cases/screen protectors for their phones? I'm currently using a silicon case and matte screen protector, but it's kinda pissing me off. Very tempted to just use it naked, but I'm afraid it'll get scratched up faster than an idiot who steps on a cat's tail. Any experience from anyone using it naked?

Currently using it naked and I'm worried every waking minute. Planning to get an SGP casing, screen protector and micro fiber from a lowyat member.

Anyone here owns the SGP Neo Hybrid? Any problems with the case? Any sellers to recommend?

I do. There's a really serious problem with the case though. For some reasons, my headphone's jack can't fit in without removing the case. Maybe because my jack is a little larger compared to normal ones. I tried using my Incredible S's stock IEM where the connector is straight and it did click. But with the curved connectors and my headphones, it won't click. Honestly thats the only problem with the SGP Neo Hybrid for me.

P.S: I think you can solve this by widening the hole with sandpaper. I don't know if it might ruin the outlook but it should be worth a try.

For the SGP Neo Hybrid headphone connection issue, I used a screw driver and heated the sides to make it wider and scratched off the debris with a scissors. Worked for me.

Is anyone else here rather underwhelmed by the audio performance on the SGS2? Having come from the iPhone, the audio quality on this phone is significantly worse. The only workarounds seem to be using PowerAmp, which is a paid app. Can't get that, at least not yet. Anyone got any other tips for better audio quality?

Reason why I have a headphone amp tongue.gif

Compared to the SGS, the quality on the SGS2 is really bad.

Sadly, I'm rather unwilling to lug an amp around with me, however small it might be. I like all-in-one devices. Ah well, since this S2 is awesome in pretty much every other department anyway, I guess I can live with the below average sound quality.
*
Its even smaller than the phone hahaha. Fiio E11. RM250. Look it up. You might get one tongue.gif


GH-X, I tried playing FLAC songs on stock un-amped. The quality is bad. Significant difference even if I play songs un-amped on my PC. The only way is to get a headphone amp. They don't come in cheap though. Especially good ones. The Fiio E11 is one of the more budget oriented ones. What earphones are you using?

Yup it's a sad truth that android best phone to date got worse in audio department. I am using denon AH-C710 i had a chance to try Hippo Box AMP and Fiio E11 and i must say i am impress with Hippo Box. Haven't got it yet though but planning to do so soon. Still now i need to carry something extra again which was the reason i bought SGS2 in order to reduce gadget i carry around.

Its roughly 2/3 the size of the SGS2. And it comes with a rubber band thats meant for taping the amp together with any mobile devices.

I just wanna know from s2 users that whether they have any complains on the phone so far. =.="
3 days???? yawn.gif
Are you sure?..they didn't on the phone is it? lol

Mollai, its entirely possible. I reconfigured my theme into a minimalistic one and it lasts me 1 and a half day even with heavy usage(I'm on stock firmware unrooted). With moderate usage and custom kernal and firmwares I don't think its impossible.

I bought Beautiful Widgets and the Widgetlocker lockscreen.

Alright!
You guys really need to help me with this when I get the phone.

btw, s2 on a girl shall be fine right?

Buying it next month, will it be a lil bit late?

Ohh, one more thing, you guys bought the phone from the telco package?

yior..don't like that la... I'm not so familiar here mah  blush.gif

No matter what your question is, the first page usually answers most of them. laugh.gif

S2 on a girl is good. I don't like girls who buy iPhones due to them being mainstream and in trend now. wub.gif

If you don't intend to alter anything i.e: firmware/kernal/rooting; then its recommended you go for HTC phones. Their stock firmware is much better if compared to Samsung's. I for one can confirm this.

Buying it next month is not late but then the Q4 phones will start rolling out and you'll cry if there's a better deal for the same price. But the price of the S2 will definitely drop a little when they're launched so its worth the wait.

I bought it from SenQ. Took the last unit. Its still really hot. They still go out of stock two months after the initial launch sweat.gif
