Hello peeps. I'm planning to get myself a 9790 later. Can teach me some tips on how and what to check during purchase? and how to make sure the set is original? thanks alot!

Upon receiving the phone, do this. Go to Settings, Device, Device and Status Information, and simply type BUYR, no need to press alt or anything. It will show you the buyer's remorse. This information is embedded to the chip that no matter how many time they formatted, soft bricked, and remove the OS/reinstall, it would stay the same.

If the phone is new, your data usage would be empty.
If the phone is not new, it would show that the data usage has exceeded some point.
See my screenshot of mine.

my device still cant get it OTA

i dont think our OTA support is great, better to do it yourself using loader.

BB Desktop Manager not support for windows 8.
did anybody have the solution?

no backward compactibility?

i'm not sure, but it cannot install.
my latest findings, is must come with .Net 3.5 framework.
I've enabled it in PC, but still cannot install.
Hoh

dload and install .net 4.0 from microsoft website first.

it's already on windows 8 is .Net 4.5
i'll try download first 4.0
then, install mcm biasa?

if it's already on 4.5,then no need to download..
mm..
i think you might cannot install until new release..

ya i guess so.
ah, die

so does this new OS helps with the batt. life?

I'm not sure, haven't got the chance to update yet.. will give review upon doing..

i just got it installed and now trying it out, looks not much different. so what was the update more on?

So far 9360 users are reporting a good battery life and better performance..
Can you test it out?

upgraded to this version last evening, batt life is pathetic, just lasted me 2 hours (music on/BBM/Whatsapp usage, GPS switched off as well)..not sure if its a device prob, switching back to the previous version (it gave me 4 hrs of the above said usage)..
Also i noticed that, though the batt level is say 33%, all of a sudden, i get batt is too low to use radio message and then the network goes off,,and then in few secs it is restored..strange..this never happend with the prev version...Guys, have u faced similar issues, do let me know if this could be hardware/software related.
thanks
