Urm, In Settings under My Phone Number It states "Unknown" instead of your phone number? Any solutions for this, changed new SIM but no luck.

The number must be configured by the telco inside your SIM. It does not do anything extraordinary actually apart from showing the SIM phone number. The SIM that I use in my Nexus does show the number but other SIM that I have does not although it is from the same Telco.

Stupid maxis told me to pay a visit to service center... which is a (Speechless)??

Heard using BB can manually change SIM number is it true?

Anyway should I leave it as is, because IT doesn't bother me much... I just curious because I notice that It also don;t include SIM Toolkit too.

Yeah, actually SIM toolkit is not that really useful. Since there are banking apps appear in android market now. Last time, non smartphone era people use it for phone banking. (I think so)

Besides that, only telco **functions** that you rarely use (since you can use dialer and type *100#)

Anyway, is not my phone problem right because I bought it during 1st day of new year rclxm9.gif

2G only can make phone call
3G then only can make video call and phone call

Just turn off enable packet data, so you won't get bill shock from your telco end of this month.

Nexus S can do 3g video calls ?? or u referring to those chat apps like skype, gtalk etc etc ?

Don't missunderstood my meaning. What I am trying to say is 3G is for video call and phone call and 2G is for mainly phone calls...

I never state that Nexus S can make native 3G calls in first place doh.gif

Tap the MIC and it will come out a Mic with red ciricle. Just speak slowly and it will dictate your words to google server and convert into words.

Just get mercury case for today from (Garage sales)Lowyat.net Forumer. Quite nice I like the black colour and it's glitter makes my nexus look shiny tongue.gif

For those who wants to type asian languages try Go Keyboard, it's free good to use and multi language support (includes Malay too)

It's TPU jelly case, It doesn't add too MUCH bulk like otterbox so don't worry tongue.gif
I do recall Fcuk90 has his mercury case pictures on V2 of Nexus S thread, you can go have a look.
His is red ones if not mistaken smile.gif

hey guys i might be buying this phone for my mum. i wanna ask is this good for gaming, music and cameara? the gpu is power something and is the same with iphone right? so i suppose it can run many games? and how about the speaker? is 16GB enough for u guys?
also this will get ICS right?
*
This is my personal opinion:
1) Gaming, because it uses PowerVR 540 (iPhone is PowerVR535) basically different GPU but the compatibility isn't an issue for nexus devices. Unless you talk about recent Ice-Cream Sandwich upgrade, yes because the OS is still new and most of apps compatibility only reach Gingerbread which is Current OS.
2) Nexus S using Wolfson audio chip, the music quality should be ok for general users. Unless you may root it and try voodoo control, adjust the settings and to make it as your personal music player.
3) Camera, ok the 5MP shooter isn't that bad like what other people saying. Just the colours wash out and unable to ZOOM. If you talk about Video Camera. I afraid to said that, Nexus S only shoot DVD quality instead of 720P. Ice-Cream Sandwich has built in Photo Editor, so almost don't need a Photoshop Mobile to make your pictures look great. Also movie studio makes your clips look better than before.
4) Speaker, might sounded soft for some people. You may try Volume+ in android market to make a boost of volume.
5) 16 GB should be enough for some people, unless you place high quality audio losses and Blue-Ray Size of Movies.
6) ICS is on Nexus S now check my post for manual STOCK ICS guide tongue.gif
