I wonder how everyone screen fare in bright light condition. I've read review said its perfectly visible under all lighting condition but mine barely visible. Almost like my CSL Mi-300 under not that bright cloudy lighting.

ps: I wonder if my SGP Glas screen protector got something to do with it?

Hmmm, maybe later after it lose its stickness or in bad condition. Afraid that glue might be less sticky and can't be use again if I take that Glas out now . Just have to endure it I guess sad.gif

The S2 runs on full brightness on auto nearly all the time when outdoors. Sometimes I want mine brighter then realise it is already on max. So putting it on max isn't going to solve your problem at all.

Oh..? So, its the Glas then..*sigh*

Sometimes you just have to sacrifice one thing for another sweat.gif

My yoobao screen protector has better screen clarity than sgp glas whistling.gif
Well, actually clarity isn't the reason I bought Glas. Of course its not that bad. But more to the protection and toughness of it actually, especially after saw the video review of someone using automatic screwdriver on the Glas trying to scratch it but to no avail *yeah, I'm easily bought by those advert* tongue.gif

Plus, its pink color matching my pink Ultra Capsule skin. So, I guess I'll just hold on with it at the moment. Will change sp when I change the skin to enjoy full clarity of the screen. Just have to endure it I guess sweat.gif

on the google navigation few pages back..

I wonder I can't installed mine. I did everything from the step from first pages, backup Maps and Street View, clean uninstall, put Map unsigned.apk in system folder but in the end it said application didn't installed. I wonder why?

1) Did you rename it to maps.apk
2) Did you put it in systems/apps
3) Did you restore streetview
4) Did you download the correct file
5) Is the file corrupted

Checklist.  smile.gif

I think I follow everything carefully. I even tried steps from XDA forum. But to no avail. Thanks for the check list. I'll try it again tomorrow or something.

no i dun think so. i think the real reason is he didnt enable r/w function or the explorer he using dun have root function.

emm, this one I'm not sure. I'm using root browser. I did enable all those r and w. But still application not installed appeared. Can someone tell every details of the step?

1. backup streetview and map using tb.
2. wipe data and uninstall streetview and map.
3. rename the apk u downloaded, and copy it into your system/app using rootexplorer/esfilexplorer or whatever with root function enabled.
4. when it shows application installed, move on to titanium backup and restore streetview
5. reboot and done,

Thanks guys. Will look it up tomorrow or tonight. Can't do sh*t during work.

Btw, mine is G version so the steps shouldn't be different right?

Anyone got issue regarding vibration of this phone..? Mine not working on notifications. Its work fine during key press, call or playing games but not on notifications. Wiggling the sound setting and messages setting but to no avail.

To spend so much on the phone but to receive so many issues. Now I know why I'm a bit hesitant to buy this phone before..*sigh* mine is G version.

okay maybe its because I'm using digi, and in market, it says "This app is compatible with your DiGi Samsung GT-I9100." so..maybe they thought my phone is G version when its Non-G?  tongue.gif you using digi or maxis? lol

Mine G version can download and play just fine.

Btw, any of you G user have problem with vibrate on notifications? Mine still not working. Even using Go SMS also not vibrating when receiving SMS. Its not the hardware problem because its still vibrating during test, receiving call and played games. Only on notifications even though already set to always vibrate. Sigh. Found no real solutions on google. Feeling frustrated already because not vibrating when receiving messages is a big defect for a phone.
