Picture taken with SGS2 while having a stroll...
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Just for sharing, if your battery is low (notification warning sounded for the first time) you won't be able to take picture. A pop-out window will indicates the low battery status. I just found out yesterday's evening. |

QUOTE(Shizuru @ Oct 13 2011, 01:59 PM) On stock rom I believe if your battery is at 15% and below the camera will be disable I didn't know that until it happened to me. I thought of snapping some random ceiling shots. Noted on the disablement of camera function when your battery dips low. I thought I can trigger happy until the last drop. |

QUOTE(AstonCheah @ Oct 13 2011, 02:24 PM) i thought all custom roms will solve this low battry cut off issue? Mine is stock camera. No fancy camera application or custom ROM. QUOTE(Gilthoniel @ Oct 13 2011, 03:20 PM) hey guys, some quick questions... Mine was jumbled up when I slotted the SIM card. For example, it used to be Joey Christensen, when it's in SGS2 it's Christensen Joey. I'm not too bothered about this because it's based on the norm of first name and given name. For the contact pictures, I'm doing it manually though.how do u manage your contacts? last time with my previous phones when i sync facebook contacts, it automatically puts photos on my contacts... now it does it for only certain contacts (my guess is those who have matching names, numbers or emails) but for the rest, i have to manually 'join contact' and include the facebook one... very annoying! and what the heck is all these merge/separate/join contacts... too complicated! |

QUOTE(eq8all @ Oct 13 2011, 03:32 PM) Jz curious, how many on team "G" with root success so far? Oh...we've been separated by the "G". Hahaha. Heard it's not so great going for our "G" guys. To add in, for females, the SGS2 is kind of large but it's still can be held with single hand. The superb 4.3" Super AMOLED+ screen is hard to resist for girls. It's pretty much mesmerising for them (the screen of course) Samsung Note is too large and I'd must say the 4.3" is acceptable for female users. I've asked a few female colleagues too and most of them say it's a "Aye" for SGS2 and "Nay" for Samsung Note. Anyway, this does not depicts anything but it's some of the feedback received. |

For sharing, there's a accessories shop at the top level of VIVAZ HOME, Cheras. They are selling original casing (polycarbonate and leather) from Zenus and SGP. If anyone interested, you guys can head there and have a look.
By the way, is the iGeneration an authorised seller for Samsung accesories? Added on October 13, 2011, 4:07 pm QUOTE(antt00 @ Oct 13 2011, 04:04 PM) Its obviously original white. Poison level +2. Great grab you have there, mate.This post has been edited by Joey Christensen: Oct 13 2011, 04:07 PM |

QUOTE(eq8all @ Oct 13 2011, 04:07 PM) @ Joey Christensen For technical matters, it's best to leave it to the bigger brothers/sisters here. For what I know, Samsung is very aggressive in churning out model after model. It's good in some way for us, the end users. We are very much spoilt for choices. New at this so had to ask tyvm. Noticed that there's not much going on at xda for the G variant apart from the root + insecure/stable stock fws. I guess that will hv 2 do atm |

QUOTE(leongkokloon @ Oct 13 2011, 04:45 PM) so i presume that if i buy SME the manual book will be in english & bahasa & chinese? I totally forgotten about the user manual or anything. However, I'm sure the English version is printed. You are skeptical if yours an original set or AP set? |

QUOTE(leongkokloon @ Oct 13 2011, 04:49 PM) ya im not sure.... coz gonna buy new... and dont know how to check later kena con... Let's say you are getting an original set...Step One: If you are getting from the authorised Samsung dealer, the box is usually sealed with two SME blue sticker. Step Two: Cross reference the box serialised number and your physical set. For the box serialised number, it is printed on a white sticker (together with the barcoding and such). Step Three: Fire up your smartphone..Press SETTINGS>Scroll down until the bottom, ABOUT PHONE>Tap on it, look for STATUS, click on it and you can check the IMEI The IMEI should be tally ho with the serialised number. Good luck! |

QUOTE(leongkokloon @ Oct 13 2011, 04:59 PM) Hmm im getting from this guy (brandstar mobile city / directd) subang jaya) is a trusted seller? i bvelieve he is authorised samsung dealer (i think) I didn't get mine from Subang. Since it's been a while SGS2 is out there, better to get it from authorised dealers. Do whatever checking that you possibly could and enjoy your brand new shiny set! Once the screen is switched on, the kick will comes in! Enjoy! |

QUOTE(Mollai @ Oct 13 2011, 05:02 PM) Not much friends of mine using S2. And those who are using, most of them are still using custom settings. LOL So far at my work place, there's only two people using SGS2. There's two using Samsung Ace, one using Samsung Galaxy Mini. That's what I've know. Majority is using iPhone4, one using iPhone 3GS. Samsung is still "rare" and that makes me feel good. LOLZ! |

QUOTE(leongkokloon @ Oct 13 2011, 05:09 PM) But Authorised set is Expensive... that guys selling SME RM 1699 (not really sure whether is it ori or not) I got mine couple weeks back and damage done was RM1,990 (cash and carry basis) I'm not sure the current pricing. Bought it and never look back. I'm sure there are others that bought at a much premium price when it was released. |

QUOTE(leongkokloon @ Oct 13 2011, 05:18 PM) ahhh i have.... just decided to buy from him.... really poison after looking at the phone... The outlook of the SGS2 is good enough. Wait till you see the screen. It's like seducing you and waiting for you to touch it! Oh wait...this sounded a little bit off. Once you've seen it, you'll know what I mean. Don't forget to calibrate the screen brightness. |

QUOTE(Fallenangelz @ Oct 13 2011, 05:22 PM) i had made up my mind the first time i saw the specs. before that i was thinking bout xperia arc or atrix, but SGSII had proven that my decision is right Xperia is a good choice. For my case, I've been setting my eyes on SGS2 and well, got it and as they say, the rest is history. Samsung's been offering quite a number of models for its consumers and it's a good thing for us. The battle is still raging between Samsung and Apple. From lawsuit to a clown in our thread (last I read he was sent to Bora Bora Island) |

QUOTE(Gilthoniel @ Oct 13 2011, 05:24 PM) so... how about helping a poor brother out here? Since your display is being switched on and you are doing this and that, I'd say it's good enough. Initially I wanted to reply you but I reluctant as it would better to be justified with figures or some sort. Maybe a percentage or number to represent the matter being highlighted. I agree with Fallenangelz that one should not be greedy when it comes to your SGS2 juice. From my point of view (non technical view), it's good enough based on your usage descriptions. |
