battery still kickin great. fully charge until 6 in the morning
at 5 pm battery still about 75%-70% with wifi turn on all the way,
whatsapp, with a few answering call and texting.

now my screen got 3 (dead/faulty) pixel in about 5mm diameters.
coz i droped it in last february. lazy to change it, im afraid it will cost like

tat is rreally impressive, u use wifi or 3g ?

wifi if im at home or office (never turn off)
3g if im going out lepak2 or nonwifi area la. but ill turn it of if not using the data.

it depends on what apps running in your phone too.
i turn off all the notifications except for yahoo mail and gmail only. smile.gif

that was my previous problem. after put in the 1st time 24 hours.. it clear 90% of the blue water mark..

then the last 10% i just leave it cause need to use the phone.

later it grow bigger until I can't tahan and put it in freeze again . 24 hours.

Result .. become smaller, then use again become bigger .. keep on repeat until i decided to put it in for 4 days ^^

Thanks to Quarx. video coming soon. very soon biggrin.gif

Noticed that your spots are blue in color...
i thought dead pixels are supposed to be black color?
Remembered that i read somewhere there is a difference between dead pixels (black) and stuck pixels
i think the freezing method only works for dead pixels (lack of power to the pixel)
whereas wiki suggest that stuck pixels could recover over time, months or even years...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defective_pixel
*
i got blue and black. when i froze it last time the blue got fixed too.
the black is still there. lazy to fix it already. just let it grow that big.
if i disturb it again it will diminished for sometime then grow bigger blush.gif
