hmmm... only now i realised we do have a lot of owners without smartphone plan.
ya, true... i just recently signed the 12mths contract with digi (so my bro can buy htc incredible s). but i noticed... try as hard as i might, my usage still below 1GB. this is 2mths liao... if some of you guys remember, i'm basically under heavy/ addicted user... heh heh... makes me wonder how the rest can chalk up more than 3GB data. p2p via wifi hotspot on the phone?
personally, i think digi's rm48 plan is good enough for me. 1GB data. and sign up for this plan also entitles one to rm400 discount on sgs2. maybe can share discount with some who have yet to buy the phone.

the other one i found interesting is the u mobile plan a owner recently mentioned -- rm28 (or sth like that) with free talk time, etc... not bad also.
serious?!?  notworthy.gif

Oh ya , forgot to mentioned ..... I got a fren who recently purchased a Ferrari 430 but he doesn't go above 110kmh on the highway coz it's " against the law " doh.gif ..... Which u think is worst ?

thats a good one!!


my friends in my network often tease me buy superphone but no 3g plan wtfark lah!! even auntie also say lik dat doh.gif


buy ferrari not necessarily u want speed but enjoy the build, the brand, the design, the premium handling , n what money can buy, not necessarily the speed to enjoy it cuz not everyone enjoy speed but the pride n enjoyment of simply using it just like i said before, staring at the screen itself and simply holding it make me so song n the flexibility of android n lagless operation make me life alittle better n business better lol not necessarily must use 3g de hehe just to debunk the myth user is kiasu...at least imo, better than ipong stereotypes "i don k, ipong is the best"

today i just subscribe to digi 3G plan finally. though i dont feel it's a need rather than want.

anyhow just to update u guys on the smart plan

now i get the cheapest is RM 48 p.m. give 1gig. if call bill >RM52, then u get 25% disc off the 48, so RM 36. my monthly phone bill is RM90 -150

opt for auto -billing (credit card) u get another RM 5 off so in total , i effetively pay RM 30 for 1gig which i think is a good deal.

the previous plan is RM 33 for 300mb only, RM 28 if auto biling. after that, u cant use anymore - not even at slower speed. u hv to wait for the next month for clean slate.

so pay extra RM3 , can get 'unlimited' 1gig quota (after finished quota, just slower speed ) so the new plan is definitely worth it

any recommendation of a good 3g toggle widget?

those data counter apps usually only maxis users is it? since the usage can cross to different payment range is it, lik dat dangerous lo. so digi one no need careful on this arh? cuz if over limit, then only slows the speed since the monthly rate is fix

widgetsoid and the rm48 package's 'unlimited' will reduce ur speed to 5Kbps , means 5 kilo BIT per second, not byte, good luck surviving after u reach quota

thanks. look like nice.

thanks for the heads up but 1G is more than enuf for me light user. not like klites on heavy usage.

QUOTE(antt00 @ Sep 13 2011, 08:03 PM)
3g toggle as in on/off data or 2g/3g toggle? If your on cook rom, jkay theme will put on/off data on the drop down notification. I like it this way cos use to it since CM7.

i checked destex one already. i think it's good enuf for the time being

i think data usage it's more like one's need or not, not necessity depending on nature of lifestyle . many users here not necessarily need 3g plan like some students. dont la always must say data usage is a necessary la abit annoying edi. idk since when this is thread is turning into use s2 must need 3g plan.

drive in small town u tink need gps or not. dont hv the need to sync mail . no need updates on news or weather. viber still many customers dont use , work in office 9-5pm got wifi, go home got wifi, not to mention those r 15" lcd, or those got tablets. etc etc still need apply plan? or i must subscribe because i use a smartphone ? quite a twisted logic tat is. pls respeect other s2 users also la how ppl use their s2 is their business ...

im not the one asking that.

im not advocating use or not use is good. im just stating it on neutral ground that it is not necessary, ofcourse, to fully utilised the superphone, 3g is prefered so ppl should reserve from giving all sorts of smartaleck opinions about ppl who dont need 3g.

same situation, and i take umobile prepaid internet for RM28 per month. data plan is a want, not a need. need is limited but want is demon. if u could afford it and u think dat data plan is necessary to u during those times that u r out of wifi coverage and the timeframe is quite long, then probably its wise to take data plan. if most of the time u oso got wifi, no pain getting another money wasting plan jz to increase ur expenses. save the money n get a good accessory for ur SGSII is way better doh.gif

umobile is interesting. myb someday go n enquire it

not only save money, but save wastage too (one of the main reason why i try not to get biggest 3g plan. watch youtube on pc much much better!

speaking of wastage. today i go n hunt for 1-2A charger but dont hv. only 1A for charging blackberry but is s2 usable cuz micro usb-B.

i assume any brand phone charger is considered safe on s2. 700mA is slow n wasting current only Lol

must go green now

I never used Tab 7" as a phone - the phone function is just a bonus. It is just inconvenient. Use it to make a call is still OK but imagine taking a call while you are on the move, it is just not practical. So I am still puzzled why so many users wants the latest Tab 10.1 to have calls function
*
i think dell streak is already big as a mini tablet phone. personally sgs2 is the biggest i wud go for a phone gadget haha in fact, i nvr imagine owning a 4.3" phone ever before. i tot 3.3-3.5" is the end journey for lcd size .anything else like streak/note, is odd, anything bigger like tab10.1 holding it to ur ear would just be farking hilarious lol myb they just want a calling function for calling using their BT set

eventho these days i just use bluetoth most of the time, really save the effort of wiping my sgs2 screen after each calls =.=||

i just installed swiftkey x and widgetsoid2.x....really awesome
especially the disable/enable lock...too fantastic to be real cuz im abit dreadful of the frequent pattern lock d every time it screens out n the unlock/screen lock widgetsoid2.x just bring alot of pleasantry

i like swype it was fun but it rly gets the SP all prints...
but the swyping efficiency dpds on my finger 'condition' like that so abit ofa turn-off for me

i like the light theme of swiftkey x that mimics htc cum apple's qwerty which i adored so much but nvr get the chance to use them.
i feel that they r slightly bigger than the stock qwerty which is a really good thing

and then, how u guys clean the top part where the glass meets the edges of the shiny plastic? its most likely to accumulate dirt due to ear pressing to phone when calling time. see got abit dirt edi, wah...very 'sam dong orh'...

the gap so subtle hard to reach to clean, now i try use speaker and bt as freq as possible to maintain the pristine condition

every once and a while i hv a micro penyapu sapu the gap then my father see me doin this lol at me ...lol

i dont think ive ever treat a phone this well before...even my previous samsung wave n phones before it i din wear any casing or SP whole ownership duration lol

i believe only a dumb(woops, dun get offenced) cant differentiate between SGSII and Galaxy R. even the menu button can tell u dat ur phone is the king of android or an inferior version to the king. or else turn ur phone 180 degree n look at its ass... nope. look at its back. the camera pixel oso can tell u d wat doh.gif  doh.gif

Guys, there is some conflict about the 2 websites. It says lithium-ion does not need to be fully charged; a partial charge is better. However, In the xda-developers website, it was stated that:
So do you think a 100% charged is better, or partial charge? smile.gif Just need some opinions.
*
what is more important is that, at this rate, we all r gonna change a new phone faster than the battery kong. say 3 years before changing model is considered quite outdated already

speaking of kong if thats ur concern, even if u charge at ur convenient or fully discharged then full recharge it, both method wont damage the battery even a bit.

going day out with partial charge battery is more damaging to my business and social than concern of not getting a full charge cycle for my battery that gives a tiny bit edge only.

but i've a fren who casually tested his hp and her gf's hp over the years, his gf 's method of full charge cycle seem to be best treatment for the battery lifespan compare to his charge at convenience. they use the same model phone. my folks also use this method over the years over different phone models and said the same thing. but i highly doubt its improvement is a long shot.
