i not working at wall street or share traders dont hv to update wit news every hour, make my life miserable later lol i dono wat for ppl want to put weather n forecast on their homescr puzzles me. ive live 30years of my life not knowing the weather to be in fact enjoys the excitement of unpredictability....so i off everything literally rofl...

so i buy s2 so my eyes can feast with passion everytime i look at the screen, my hands very song n my heart beats alittle faster when hold the sexy girl, my blood vessel can take a backseat for operating a lag free phone instead of phone that make my heart beats in frustration...so owning a superphone like s2 is not make me work harder but make my life longer n more relax lol

wonder u guys having the overheat problem?
*
the model has over 800 users...naturally, it's a hot unit !

k la srsly, ur notebook hot or not when use? i hope u hv an answer there already. some guy tested his unit pushing it to 54c for an hour n still stable i tink, room temp ur unit operates in range of 25-35c, over 40c when in heavy use...so i tink the threshold is quite high...just dunt put it near to ur egg ever thats all i can say n use BT headset or earphone/ speaker like me smuch as possible .

on another note, our s2 has one of the lowest SAR around, far lower than my samsung wave SAR and my previous SE G900. can check gsmarena for it

how do i actually properly exit and app? i read somewhere people said press back button? but if im im browsing, i'll have to keep pressing back many times  sweat.gif

yea thats wit the stock browser.
tat's one of the reason why i like the xscope browser. it has a off button that exit the application completely haha

do note it's running on 1.4ghz and has a heck of a bigger screen and pumping 1.5x the resolution, therefore eats more battery
*
im guessing the battery consumption in line with screen size is exponential -- not linear. i think the issue here is better battery technology, slapping in a bigger mah battery is merely a shorterm remedy, not a healthy long term one, imo la.

i use the battery solo widget which i tink is good. show batt lvl n one tap to it shows the temperature rather than temp widget on its own.

want ask. 480 x 800 wallpaper is a STILL wallpaper, meaning if u scroll thru few homescr, remains the same wallpaper.

how about if i wan to use those wider wallpaper that 'moves' thru the homescr pages, what resolution do i go for?

if anyone wit a good ,dark regular wallpaper, do kindly share too
who knows if uncle likes it, he wil pin ur wallpaper link too haha

so tats means rooting , flashing Rom doesnt need external micro SD right, the tool will able to explore/browse the internal memory storage as what i see the MyFile= /sdcard right? i had just need to push everything to this internal storage /sdcard dir?
*
not sure if i understand u so if relate root, u ask others haha. my unit is stock n unroot though. u r right about internal storage IS sdcard dir.

up to u where u wanna put ur files la. since 16gb is alot to use, i just put my camera files /vid/ media/ movies to sdcard. my external memory card is only 1gb where i din put anything to it la so far. is a result of me exchanging 16gb to my mom's hp heh

Oh ok thx! Wanna ask other galaxy s2 owners, what case shud i get? Im interested in the case-mate tough case, since looks as if it can really protect the phone, considering the phone is only made out of plastic, do i need that type of case? Or cases like sgp neo hybrid will do the job when dropped from your hand to the floor(my hands are so clumsy)? And do i need a screen protector? The screen made out of gorilla glass, and reviews state that the screen is more fingerprint resistant than most phones, so shud be fine without screen protector right?
*
i bought this mesh vent casing for RM20
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/genuine-samsung...lack-p29893.htm
samsung one rm88.

its one of my favorite one

thinking back...i think mesh vent casing is the only casing i should get since it has vent, cuz the phone abit heat

if complete gell back one, not so good ventilation. i jsut thought about this since i only know the name of the casing is VENT , so speaks for itself the function.

its one of the few samsung original casing so myb samsung edi know this phone needs a vent mesh casing LOL
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/genuine-samsung...lack-p29893.htm

secondly, it covers the crucial 4 corners of the hp so when drop, its protected too although has minimal cover compare to full body gel/casing type

thirdly, when ever i chg battery, it is taken out and flip back in very efortlessly compare to other full body casing which requires some pressure i scare my s2 patang lol so my vote goes to mesh vent casing thumbup.gif

I wonder how many "naked" SGS2 user here! i love the slimness of the SGS2 so i decided to leave it naked!

since im using mesh vent casing which easily take the phone out like in a second n same when flip the phone back in so sometime i hold it naked 40% of the time n 60% time use the mesh casing. usually go out, or hand extra oily that day i use the mesh casing, otherwise, i use it barenaked

those never use smartphone cud end up like that...
although it is quite unforgiving too
but i admit i cud be asking real dumb questions too sometime so i absolutely understand those lazy students to learn how to root especially all the techies' jargon make one in uncomfortable zone...one such like me...i had my days with win mobile n symbian n now ,seriously, lazy to read all that to root, rather find a fren n do it for me rofl..

when i look at this kind of system panel app app, i almost think of unbelievable...it is like reading the supercomputer monitor for some sesmic, volcanic, geology behavior reading doh.gif ....

i dono la mybe it's just me, i dun understand the need for stuff like that, y the extreme detail simply over simple battery usage...detail is good but not obsessive detail ...kinda make it counter productive and turn the user become detail obsessive-- unnecessary man, we've got handsful of our daily commitment, not another apps like that to make life miserable. well im just saying my opinion.

there's a chinese saying (warning of direct translation inaccuracy)-- simple thing make into complex thing is eat full already got nothing to do, complex things make to simple is skill.

the term 'overheat' refers to when a device is so hot, the device shuts down, which in the SGS2 case, never happens =) and please dont complain about hotness, this is running dual core 1.2ghz, ur dual core 1.2ghz laptop hot or not?
*
human body temperature is about 37c, no?
so the s2 operating temp around 37-47c ,no?
10c more than ur body temp then already complain overheat....u ok or not ah brothers lol

anyone know wat is the temperature of when all blood rush to one part of the body ? it's hot right but u never think it's overheating right? same la with our s2, it's hot, not overheating for god's sake lol
ok just a stupid nonsense at morning ty for reading
