anybody upgraded from xperia u/p/s to this phone? what's the difference?

umobile is worse than digi's edge in melaka.

My fren got the invitation for media launch this evening and will be held at Zebra Square KL....after that we know the price.

My HTC is AP set - i just sent back to the shop that sell me and is FREE warranty replacing motherboard

I always advised my friends buy AP only from those with registered shops and established as service support is assured. There are now many 3rd party AP resellers who does not have any shop or service center support. They take a lower profit and sell cheaper and you just got to pray your set no problem. There are too many horror stories of such warranty claims from such AP resellers which gives AP sets a bad reputation. Some of these AP sets are directly imported from other countries on a batch basis through some grey importer and for such buy with care. Once the model is out and sales make within first few months, these importers just disappear and re emerged again when newer models are out

you're in Klang Valley?
So far at the major parts in Klang Valley is 90% covered i can say.
Never seen my coverage drop to Edge so far (minus the upgrading days)

mine even higher , but no choice for grey color
flash mine to XXALJ1 firmware too , multi view really a whole new experience in phone....phablet ?

I'd say is comparing a Ferrari to a Honda Accord

alright i understand. for ur HTC, how long did it take for the phone to get back to u? and do Ap sellers have service centres too? I thought they would send it back to the factory for repair.

Zebra Square KL at 6.30pm. Confirmed by my friend's hot sister who's working with some press

guys i need confirmation. If we flash/update using odin, can we update again using Kies later on? coz my galaxy s2 once i used odin to flash new update, i cannot update through Kies after that

benny888... if you still have your u mobile prepaid... can test it out again? i read that recently (as in Sep and maybe even Oct), they switched to Maxis as their local roaming partner... coverage should have now improved even more -- i suspect that major towns/ cities are now very much covered. i seldom travel out of Klang Valley, so can't test it out...

doesn't really matter i think. Odin is much faster and easier.

Depends on each AP suppliers. Some do have physical ones and some outsource to local technician while some grey importers just send back to factory for repair.

how's the grey color at the back..?
i know from front look very nice

In melaka, your only option is maxis or celcom. Digi and Umobile have quite terrible speed there

Maxis u still get get HSPA+ in town center or some kampung area. Celcom, i not sure

download galaxy note tool kit from xda
it will take care everyting

SME service centers will take in AP sets but everything is charged. eg reflashing a rom starting at RM 50 and service check starts at RM 30
I bought an AP set ( galaxy S from one Lowyat kiosk reseller ). The phone freeze and cannot even boot into download mode - i sent back to him. 2 weeks later i called him and hear his grandfather story of how he needs to wait to accumulate other problem sets and sent one time to Spore to service ( apparently is Spore source set). One week later he said havent sent yet and if i want i can try to sent in Spore myself. I took back and personally went to Plaza Spura Service Center and set was service warranty FOC and got it back in 4 hours time ( motherboard check and rom reflash ). The Service center did not even ask for purchase proof and just by keying in the serial number it was confirmed Spore set and warranty period

Uncle Benny do you always buy the AP set from the same seller? And you bought Note 2 from which seller?

speaking of this...

last time i recall...

warranty period for SME sets... phone (display, etc) = 1 year; charger = 6 months; battery = 1 year (but a few pages back, recall mention of only 6 months now?!?)

AP sets... some claim 24 months... but from what i understand... it could be 24 months for transceiver (whatever that means)... display = 3 months?!? battery/ charger could also be 3 months or what not?!?

AP... i wonder if they would let us reject if got 1 dead pixel... so far, when buy from SEP, they do say I can reject...

ya, i guess if really can't get over this 'taking a risk' thingy (similar to rooting and voiding warranty), then stick woth SME sets...

er...i dunno how to answer ur question..haha..i shud just say nice or...?
For me grey is much nice look than white...dunno...i feel white a bit like "toy" only ....just for me la
GREY all the wayyyyyyYYY~
