You guys should not worry too much about the SMS confirmation ; any claims just bring your receipt will do
But in my experience dealing with service center, not even necessary to show receipt. They just key in phone serial number and warranty expiry date is in their system
I bought an AP set ( SGS ) from lowyat and Spore service center still process FOC for me - need not even show them any proof of purchase ! I sent in my friend Galaxy Tab to Plaza Berjaya - to reflash his bricked Tab and also need not show any receipt as his was SME set and key in serial number was sufficient

No idea but was surprised that Spore service center can verify my AP warranty which I bought at KL

Storage space to install apps : 2GB. All supporting data of the apps, eg game data will be install in the other 11 GB partition. the balance 3 GB is reserved for sytem storage/files

I generally find the ringtone volumes is soft - worse than SGS II and similar to the HTC incredible, Sensation

Added on November 18, 2011, 6:36 pmI installed the KKA version but found the modem KK5 slow in locking up 3G and often disconnect while browsing. So I flash back the older XXKJ6 modem which comes with KK1 which is excellent. I used Mobile Odin to flash the modem.bin file. BTW I am using Digi

I think you misunderstood my comments. I only flash the MODEM as I found the KK5 modem in the new KKA rom was not soo strong in the 3G. So I just use Mobile Odin to flash only the modem.bin file of KJ6. OR can use PC and flash through Odin by just selecting the modem.bin file as PHONE
Flashing modem will not unroot and will not affect any data on phone

Odin 1.85 is a program used to flash roms on the galaxy series of phones. You can use it to flash a whole packaged rom ( with PDA, PHONE, CSC included ) - these are normally packaged in a single tar format file. Or you can use the program just to specifically flash the phone firmware ( PDA), or baseband modem ( PHONE) or even kernel.
You can download odin 1.85 for Windows at either forum XDA or just google for odin 1.85 - plenty of links on web to download
Chainfire has recently develop his Mobile Odin - just install his apk file and you can now use his mobile app to flash rom, kernel and modem. This is more convenient - no need to have phone attached to PC. You can read more about this tool at :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...=1347899&page=1

And a piece of advise to newbies to flashing, don't worry about the flash counter. The samsung tech can detect that you have root your phone and flash your phone ( to other firmware or kernel ) even physically it shows a zero counter. So trying to hide the flash counter is only making yourself happy - it will not help you at all when you submit in your phone for warranty claims. If the Samnsung tech wish to void your warranty , he can always do it. But it is proven many times at the SGS, SGS II threads the tech seldom bother and close an eye to this rooting/flashing. I have submit in my tablet, phones to claim FOC services with it in rooted and in flash rom state - and each time I have no problem getting FOC services. I even managed to get free FOC service from Spore Service center for a rooted bricked SGS ( AP set bought in KL)

Added on November 18, 2011, 9:20 pmAre you talking about external memory card ? I NEVER have such problem as I always copy my stuffs from one card to another and I used these external SD cards interchangeably among all my androids inclusive tablets. Have been practicing this for the past 18 months since I started using Android. Never have any problem the phone/tablet unable to detect the contents. Only exception is some games data ( Gameloft example ) - you need to redownload it
If you have moved apps to external SD card - you need to reinstall the apps and then select to force move to external SD card again

Added on November 18, 2011, 9:26 pmYes you can use CWM to flash a modem zip file. Make sure it remains as a zip file and not extracted

Look at the code - i thought the latest Msian is already DXKK1 ? It is listed or check forum xda , some guys has posted it too

It is not the kernel ; it is the baseband modem issue

The multiupload is the correct one ; the other is for the sgs

You can use Zergrush exploit to root but no cwm.
If you need both root n cwm use netchip kernel through Odin but have yellow triangle during bootup

The present USB jig only can get phone into download mode . It will not erase flash counters

Try clear data of Market at settings/applications/manage applications - browse to select Market

Video plays perfectly well in fullscreen mode ( your video link) ; youtube definitely is Ok
You need 3rd party apps for voice navigation : sygic aura or papago x5 ( need to tweak it)
Or use brut version of google maps

Skype video call on SGS II works - you need to download the patched skype apk file ; it was released in jul
Galaxy Note by default when you install skype has video call enabled

Added on November 19, 2011, 10:49 pmThe USB JIG is useful when your phone crashed and you cannot go into download mode with the 3 buttons. With the phone switched off, just plug in the usb jig and phone will boot into download mode and from there you can reflash your rom. In the SGS II, the usb jig will also erase all traces of flashing but not in the Note
