Guys just need an input since you guys are already using the SGS2. I rely on push email very often, it is also very important for my phone to retrieve my emails on time and give me notification the moment it reaches my email. Im using GMAIL.

I also have a unlimited data plan tied with my phone number.

So please input on the functionality of the push mail. A small review will be fine. Does it notify you on the spot when an email arrives while being on 3G coverage area. Please take not that im most of time travelling and depending on 3G/HSDPA connection. Forget about WIFI.

Thanks

Not really a BB fan. Used many BB models before. Still prefer Android. I am using HTC Desire and the push mail works just like a BB. Just wondering if the Galaxy S2 GMAIL app works the same.

If not mistaken the SGS2 when launched earlier was RM22XX

anyone plan to let go their SGS2 can PM me. Price below RM1.5k only.

Thanks

is there such thing as galaxy s2 G spec and non G spec ?

ok got it. I have to check with the seller.

I9100G

Doesn’t overheat easily, better battery life.
CPU seems to be capped at 1008 MHz.
Poorer 3D performance.
Can’t download apps / games developed for Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 in Samsung Apps / Android Market.
Fonts in PAPAGO! very small.
Not much custom firmware / modification


I9100

Overheat easily, poor battery life on Android 2.3.3. Android 2.3.5 fixed it.
Fully use 1.2 GHz CPU.
Better 3D performance.
Anti-Aliasing (4xAA and 16xAA) support with Chainfire3D Pro.
Lot of custom firmware, kernel, modification, tweaks…

Another question how to check whether its G version or non G version from the phone itself ?

This post has been edited by rattan: Oct 29 2011, 06:19 PM

On the box its stated just GT-I9100 , this is a non G version rite ?

yes can use titanium backup

yes. but if the price RM100-200 difference better go for ori set. AP set very difficult to claim warranty incase the phone gives any issues in the near future.

Hi guys please welcome me to this thread. Proud owner of SII here.

Regards

Thanks buddy. I woke up at 9am today to root my device. Rooted and first thing did was install ad-free. haha.

I got the non G version. Hunted it for a while and got it.

Well I very seldom use TB, i manually backup the apps by generating .apk , nandroid later. No plans for custom firmware yet.

Still new to SGSII, im coming from HTC Desire background.

Rockplayer ?

Any good kernel that saves battery goes along with stock ROM?
Anyone tested ?
Only 2 hours using and im down 30% of battery. Stock kernel, stock ROM, Rooted.

Are you using Speedmod kernel ?
My phone number is tied to a data package which runs 24 hours. Push mail is activated on the GMAIL app.
Whatsapp is running.
That should be it.

Depends, its best to wipe before flash to avoid FC.

Yeah, been reading review on the Siyah. Very famous kernel indeed. Will try out Siyah as it has a better reputation in the market.
