I don't think it's gonna use the Yamaha sound chip. The hardware looks awfully similar besides that damn screen which looks awesome.

installed cognitionS2 and i have to say i really like it...

but it did uninstall my default email widget. the programme is still there but the widget is gone..

know how to get it back? I just use that and the calender widget (calender widget easy to replace with others..)

I've installed Batista rom before which has its own boot animation. Now it keeps popping out every now and then.. sometimes when I flash back the stock kernel, it is the default boot animation. When I'm rooting it with cf root, it pops up. How do we get rid of it? I'm using cognition now

download the 2G-3G switcher to quickly enter that specific settings page. It'll save you a lot of time

What rom would you guys recomend me? One that has the best balance between battery life and performance. Currently looking at exynos extreme and litening rom

I second ^^i have tried lite'ning, batista, and now cognition. Cognition so far has been the best of the lot. Of course I was quite happy with the other roms too but Cognition has fewer bugs and zero lag on the home button press which to me is quite important.

are both of it matte finished?

cause the matte finishing makes it antifingerprintable... if that's a word

Not quite matte, yet not really glossy either. Rubbery, I guess, and while you can leave finger trails on them, it's actually quite hard to leave actual finger prints.

BTW, I now have some ready stock for OTG, just in case anybody's interested brows.gif

ic... i prefer matte finishing because it's smoother when sliding your finger on it... don't really bother much about fingerprints.


and yes. OTG I'm in

Using casemate and have never felt the heat from SGSII anymore.

OK. just a short review

I'm running Cognition with Nimph for I think 1 week already

Today: got up at 5:30am to a fully charged phone, immediately, wifi+3G turned on and it has NEVER been turned off the whole day.

Throughout the day, surfing for probably 4 hours max (busy busy), games (mostly eternal warriors) for about 1-2 hours tops, facebook/twitter every now and then. ran Market for a little bit... took some pictures... not much though

got my first battery warning sign a few minutes ago. Pretty pleased with that i guess.

No need, the maps just auto update itself and I knew it only when a notification shown on taskbar
