Roms for non g is way too many, I'm sure users can choose which one they want on the xda page

Plus too hard for TS to keep updating custom rom list, since roms like hyperdroid keep updating

I was just wondering, I just bought the connector as shown, but when I tried to plug in the thumbdrive and then the other side is the micro USB cable to the S2, It cannot work..

Does it mean that only USB OTG can work??

Thanks..

You don't need to pose that USB connector on top of that bullsheet law stuff you know? You're not a degree holder, so just stop with this law bullsheet already

Thinking very hard if I should change to GalNex. hmm.gif
Should I or shouldn't I? Poisoned by the ICS and the screen resolution.

I'm using non g with 3 years warranty. Phone hardly 1 year old. Lots of accessories. Any takers? laugh.gif

Full set with box n receipt.

Well, i think if i were to switch to GalNex, it would be cuz of the design, resolution and stock ICS. I suggest you hold off for awhile, quad cores with ICS are coming out soon, you might regret going for GalNex.

Well since its coming from the mouth of the gadget man, then it must be to some accuracy.

You can always just upgrade to official samsung touchwiz and download nova/apex launcher for ICS feel brows.gif

ICS ready for i9100 or 9100G?

ICS for i9100 should be released around march. As for i9100g, no one knows if samsung gonna release ics for it or not

QUOTE(Fallenangelz @ Feb 13 2012, 10:22 AM)
is apex launcher good? i find nova a bit laggy.
*
I prefer nova as apex is just slightly more laggy when in widget screen. Other than that, they're very similar

i'm so curious bout nokia, y their hardware falls so behind and yet they still refuse to follow the trend? its 2012 already and they still using single core and 512mb ram. well i know dual core is yet to be utilized but still we know that single core will be very limited in near future,  doh.gif  doh.gif

well, they got it very late and no stand for them to argue. summore mod this mod that, f*** dat shit lar, one telco one variant, who the hell got time to customize for them?

I think its due to WP7 limits. WP7 only support single cores for now, but WP7 is really optimised, so everything's quite smooth. The pinch to zoom fluidity is unbelievably smooth on it, same as iphone smoothness in my opinion

I rather have a more powerful dual core than quad cores. A16 dual core has more power than a9 quads. Plus Quads will produce way to much heat

Darn it, just a few days of going back to checkrom, now i have the urge to switch back to ICS already doh.gif ICS is just too poisoning. Any recommendations? I would prefer a ROM that has the best screen on battery life and also ICS themed. AndyX is no no since cant detect chinese, bezke's battery life is pretty crappy.

Whats the point of buying ori but without warranty? Only difference between ap and ori is warranty, unit is still the same, no difference

edit: who says ap=fake? Im using an AP sgs2 now without any issues

There are fake S2s on the market. but from pictures the quality is atrocious and the pricing is very low as well. So if someone buys that thinking its an S2 its just.. lol

Fake S2s are also really easy to spot. Just look at it then you will know its china fakes

Hi all sorry if this question been asked or double posted because I just got a SGS2 for my gf  two days ago and been experiencing follow problem:

When connected to wifi and do surfing or downloading apps from market phone will shutoff itself. There has been 3 incidents already and all is with wifi connected hence i deduce that's the problem. (note: not much other apps installed because it's a fairly new unit, 2 days old? :/)

Have anyone been experiencing this issue b4?
*
Any pirated apps on the phone? If so, remove them and see if still have this issue or not

Hey I was wondering whether the casing for the s2 should be hard as metal or must it be soft as rubber bumper to ensure that the phone will not crack when it falls??

hmm.gif  hmm.gif

I think rubber case, as rubber case can absorb the pressure of the fall.

QUOTE(Positron @ Feb 13 2012, 07:08 PM)
Yeah, that was what I was thinking as soft rubber will increase the time delay between the impact of the S2 and the ground, and since the force exerted by the ground on the s2 is inversely proportional to the time between impact, the force will be decrease since the time taken will be increased when using the rubber bumper..

Physics aside, but it still dawned on me why do people still sell aluminium casings with screws included if it is that ineffective to prevent cracks when the phone falls on the ground, one thing though it looks more stylish and shiny..

Now now, don't act like professor again doh.gif if u care about protection, just get otterbox defender or tough case, best of both worlds

Today saw my school teacher using Galaxy Note, white in colour. Felt like borrowing it and try it out only. She some more keep showing it off, makes it more tempting  drool.gif
*
Galaxy note looks sweet, but I think too big for my hands. My favourite screen size is between 4-4.3, too large then not so easy for one hand operations

Btw, what free twitter app is best now? Feel like creating a twitter but not sure which client should I use hmm.gif

Same here, totally agree with you. I would say the S2 size is perfect. Fits the hand very nicely. I tried out the HTC Sensation XE earlier today, must say that phone is a very well designed device too  rclxms.gif
*
Also, hopefully manufacturers don't go the bigger and thinner style, next thing u know, we have 6 inch 0.3cm thin phones in 2015 doh.gif

HTC makes good phones, but sense is hogging the phone down too much, will make malaysians think its laggy and not powerful

BTW, what free twitter client is best for android?
