QUOTE(mtxx @ Apr 10 2012, 09:07 AM) what's with you and the ics anticipators, just let them wait and wish la. dun tease them, kesian them. haha... actually i do have a spare battery, and a portable charger. but dont waste battery for no reason lo, can save then save lo. haha :-) now about BLN, back light notification in checkrom kitchen, it is worth/safe to use? hows the impact on battery life? BLN didn't use much battery juice lor...so it safe to use it. Like i said before bro., use your phone to its fullest. No need restrict everything. Enjoy it..battery kong..slap in your spare battery :-P Be thankfull SGSII using removable battery and not like HTC One X. Hopefully SGS3 won't follow HOX on its un-removable battery features. |

QUOTE(ngkhanmein @ Apr 10 2012, 02:26 PM) i mean I9100G lah.. u using bebeq ap 4.0.3 ma right? mostly ap I9100 come with 2.3.3 only..
Added on April 10, 2012, 2:27 pmlike ppl said semi-brick lo.. that y bebeq sell higher than others.. i heard that ppl who bought directd unable to update.. I cant really get what you ask.. o_O First of all, i dont think bebeq sell AP the G version as he hates G version. Furthermore there's no issue bebeq gave ICS updates as ICS for G version still haven't release yet. Bebeq gave free ICS updates for his non-G phones. DirectD wont give you free updates at all no matter you buy a G or non-G version. Btw..where did you buy your AP set.? |

QUOTE(iamloco @ Apr 10 2012, 02:46 PM) the G unit really have many problems? planning to buy this phone soon  My own personal advice is get a non-G version. Either buy brand new AP set or buy 2nd hand local non-G set. QUOTE(ngkhanmein @ Apr 10 2012, 02:48 PM) i din said dun trust bebeq.. i just felt weird that if bebeq able to update 4.0.3 y can't those ap set like directD offered 2.3.3.. maybe like u said they r bz... if i bought then can't update wanna find him b leceh lah.. look at garage sales.. mostly sell the ap set for non G all come with 2.3.3 de said internet got issue lah can't update to 2.3.6 lah but actually can update anot we not sure.. said only also no prove.. u feel me? so i guess those sell I9100 non G for ap set actually hardware is G version.. G can remove or add easily if they know how 2 do.. i'm noob so i dunno that's y i'm asking.. You cannot change the hardware la bro. The CPU and GPU different between this two version. If you flash a G version firmware updates on a non-G phone then you'll end up soft bricking that phone already. So there's no way dealer/seller gonna sell a G version phone as a non-G one. It's IMPOSIBBRUUU..!!! ~~haha |

QUOTE(iamloco @ Apr 10 2012, 03:17 PM) What are the major issues with G version? Nothing MAJOR exactly. Well known issue was its camera prone to freeze. And a few issue with sdcard. Other than that the phone is okay if you gonna use it as it is. But if you kaki flashing then you're in deep problem as the G version got very limited custom roms and kernel to ply with. |

QUOTE(iamloco @ Apr 10 2012, 03:26 PM) Thanks for your respond. Well i'm only going to use it at it is, not interested in flash/mod whatsoever. Quite a sigh of relief since I've been eyeing this phone for months. Hehe Good luck then.. :-) I do believe the camera and sdcard problems will be solved sooner or later by Samsung firmware updates. Just need a bit more patience if you're using a G version SGSII. |

QUOTE(SilentSerpent @ Apr 10 2012, 03:50 PM) hi guys, if i buy a galaxy s2, and update to ICS, will it lag? any of you guys done it already? Many SGSII user here are on ICS already. Some say a bit lag on ICS. Some say much smoother. Me..i find not much different as i still on stock rom. If you still haven't buy the phone then better wait for SGS3 with ICS fully utilized right out from the box. |

QUOTE(gin&tonic @ Apr 10 2012, 06:07 PM) See la actual phone. Now HOX is getting the attention and i must admit its quite attractive. Un-removable battery and no sdcard slot is really a dealbreaker for me. Otherwise i might get HOX just for testing sake. Really hope Samsung wont follow HTC by giving us un-removable battery. Most of the grumbling in S2 thread is about saving battery juice. Imagine we cannot slap in spare battery and had to bring charger or bulky external battery along with us everywhere on daily basis. I might even skip S3 if that the case :'( :::pray pray::: |

Ohh..mang..
Leaked ICS on GNote is so much better than official ICS on S2. It really smooth and faster on GNote while on S2 i found not that much different between ICS and GB. :-(

QUOTE(yehlai @ Apr 10 2012, 07:34 PM) Sad to hear that.. gave high expectations on SII ~~LOL~~ Dont misunderstood. ICS on S2 is good and stable already. It just that not much different in term of smoothness or faster. It sort of using different UI only. But if you use Apex or Nova Launcher and not TW then only you can feel a slight different between ICS and GB. |

QUOTE(mtxx @ Apr 10 2012, 11:15 PM) @waveweaver, you bought a spare battery at time square right? I remember you said you bought for rm130 and the packaging is same as mine. How is yours working so far? Mine one Kong already, totally cannot charge and use. Lausy pirated battery which I bought for rm150. So angry! Morning...that battery sold long time ago together with my first black SGSII. Don't know whether the buyer still using that spare battery or not. ~~LOL~~ QUOTE(marcus20125 @ Apr 11 2012, 12:50 AM) Samsung Galaxy S II Battery selling only RM89 RM89 is the present price. I bought at RM130 long time ago. Around two weeks after SGSII official launch if I'm not mistaken. Not many shop including SEP have battery stock on that time so price go balloon like no tomorrow. ~~ehehe~~ |
