Google for XENUS, ARGOS - these are top quality genuine leather cases from Korea . Some guys selling it in garage sales mobilephone ( just search SGS II cases )  or you can buy from ebay. Average price RM 120-140

Example , mine I bought online for US$ 44: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?V...em=150605091894
Same/similar  item also in garage sales lowyat

the other day i was in one utama and i saw one flip case that looks interesting.
basically the back of the case is a replacement batt cover, remove original, fit the case in to maintain the slim form factor...too bad it cost rm150.

casemate tough is good.
only thing is that u may find it irritating to remove and put it back, everytime u want to take out the batt etc if the phone freezes tongue.gif

Gmote can stream video meh?
yes it can.
mp3s no problem at all, but HD videos its not smooth since its buffering quite abit...either that or something wrong with my modem.
did a speedtest with s2 connected to my 4mb streamyx, my s2 download speed maxes out around 400-500kbps...ideally should be around 3.4mbps.
but upload speedtest is fine.

s2 result.

actual result from PC.

Interesting. Router config issues? My UniFi 5MB gets a nice solid 5mbps downstream (and nearly twice as fast upstream, weird).

im just going to blame it on the free streamyx modem...done whatever wifi config on it also same...but try 3g or some free wifi i know is ok and no problem...so yea blame on the stupid streamyx modem..

Damn, just a few days away from LYN and we're already 19 pages into V13. Way to go, SGS2 users!

Incidentally, I got paranoid about dropping my phone and I bought a Melkco Kubalt case, which is a copy of the CaseMate Tough. Although it makes my phone pretty bulky, I must say I'm very happy with the case. It's pretty rugged looking and considering that it has two layers of protection, I have a lot of confidence in it. 

That said though, I wonder how long it'll take before I miss the feeling of slimness in my hands and go back to a naked SGS2.
*
i was choosing between the kubalt and the casemate tough.
i chose the tough, cos the back of the kubalt looked too much like a tyre.
anyway, now i've ditched the tough and gone with the melkco jacka flip case.

Usually when u guys buy SGS2 from Samsung elite partners or third party shop, how long do you receive sms registration confirmation from samsung? mine hasn't got yet, purchased last saturday...what should i do?
*
i also never receive any sms.
but i bought from a trusted 3rd party shop, so anything should still be ok.

Some say this S2 battery life worst than galaxy ace. Is it true?

if leave on standby alot s2 can last more than 1 day no problem.
if play games etc, both to me are about the same.

Wiping=factory reset? So if i backup with titanium backup, then it did infact wipe, i can still restore everything?

One more thing, is it normal for the battery to drop from full to 65% after 20 minutes of games,30 minutes of 3g web browsing and 30 minutes of wifi web browsing? Straight usage.

QUOTE(TheLaptopDudeGuy @ Sep 12 2011, 11:39 AM)
my games arent gameloft games, just simple games like dragon, fly, jewels deluxe, cows vs aliens...
*
for those games, the screen brightness is the one thats really taking up all the batt power.
i've tried like 10mins of dragon fly, and batt goes down 10% at medium to high brightness.
lower the brightness and can do like 30mins and batt hardly goes down 10%.

gameloft games are a diff story, drains batt no matter what tongue.gif

..my new purchase, but the battery quiet heavy la...

just curious, but that one have to remove the ori batt and put that in right...so total power is only 2700mah.
if get the samsung power pack, you can have 2 batts running with total power of ori 1650 + extended 1300 = 2950mah...plus it looks better tongue.gif
