what phone you're using btw? what i know, only s3 and note 10.1 are the two devices that can get 50gb free for 2 years. correct me if i'm mistaken.

i did that this morning on s3. got the promised extra space instantly.

edit: maybe you can try upload a pic using instant upload. see if got any change.

Must it be stock ICS? can't be JB?

it doesnt depend on your stock os, as far as i'm concern. it depends on what device you're using. not all devices are offered this extra space.

Nope. Google charged USD1.00 to your CC just to test whether your CC is chargeable or not. You will get your refund of USD1.00 on the same day or soon.
*
mine not refunded. been 3 days since i first put my debit card number. the only money refunded was the over-charged $.25 this morning.

off topic but....

my bro just yesterday won a Samsung Galaxy Note (not the version 2....)

So i got to play with it .... wow it's really bigger than my S3.... and yes it has that pen thingy you can take out from the phone.

I also got a chance to mess with the Iphone 4s .... and he wanted me to jailbreak, so had to do the research on how ..... so i learned that customizing/jail breaking the Iphone isn't as easy compared to say Samsung Galaxy S3 .... especially if we are talking about IOS6 which at this point in time does not have a tool to easily jail break it.

Have to jailbreak it because it's using a UK sim card, so to use it in malaysia, it has to be Jailbroken or it simply won't let you use the phone at all ... which is retarded  rolleyes.gif

Also once you've upgraded, it can be very hard to downgrade to use the jailbreak tool for IOS 5.1.1 (so i had to be careful not to upgrade to ios6)  ......

From what i read the tool to jail break ios6 is only due in 1-2 weeks time. So yes it seems it's possible to jb it, but seriously on the android it has never been as hard to do this compared to the ios .....
And just to prove how ridiculous iphone is, just read this other user's comment on when he wants to factory reset his iphone device and perform a jailbreak.
shakehead.gif
So this is a summary of what i learned

1. iphone is gay (because of apple being so strict on allowing modifications such as jail breaking)
2. samsung galaxy s3 is awesome ... so easy to modify ...
3. samsung galaxy Note (specifically version 2 with better specs), is definately a step up from the S3. Obviously Note 1 is lower speced than S3, so i was only using the aesthetics which is similar to Note2 as a comparison in size, not to mention having a digital pen embeded in it.
Yes iphone has it's own unique look, but honestly i don't think it's worth it because of the chain and ball attached to using an iphone in regards to customization/jail breaking options  hmm.gif
*
well, some people, like me, just need one simple reason for choosing an Android over an iOS phone. What i see is, the preloaded features the phone has in it.

And i believed S3 has a lot more to offer than iPhone 5, without rooting/jailbreaking. And yes i'm not wrong. I own one and i'm very happy with it. My bad experience with my first ever smartphone, HTC Aria has gone. I used a 3GS before too. I know how both Android and iOS phone work, though it's not much.

And when it comes to choosing which Android phone, then it has to go to "what I NEED". smile.gif

Just received my replacement battery door cover that I purchased.

It's an aluminium battery door cover replacement, made of REAL ALUMINIUM.  thumbup.gif

Snaps in place perfectly, feels very high quality.  rclxms.gif

(Adds slight thickness, you won't be able to use other casings on top of this aluminium battery door)

Nonetheless, it improves the feel and quality of the phone. EXCELLENT! biggrin.gif

I really recommend this to anyone who wants to use the phone naked but scared the original battery door will get scratched.

I bought this because my original back cover cracked while i was taking out the microSD doh.gif

Give your bank a call on the details of the charges.

I used CC but Debit Card might have different waiting time.

last two days, my acc was refunded around Rm4 plus. dunno what for. i didnt do any refund for any of my purchases. but at least i know it got something related to my google wallet, based on the description given.
