I a noobie when it comes to the android phones. I used iOS for 3 years. I knew nothing about flashing.I have flashed windows mobile devices a long time ago. So I guess if I can do it you have my full confidence that you will succeed. Check out the xda link mentioned. Watch these steps in you tube

http://youtu.be/nMIzg0caQuom

Then you are ready to go. Good luck

Get it from expressfon. very good service. Also gives good after sales service. Very good price.
*
Service sure good during sales
But service will be better assessed when you want tocclaim warranty

Of course you can
Rooting is for all phones irrespective of country of origin
And is freaking simple

Don't think SME will have LTE support
Burst mode HTC one X is better n faster

Comparing s3 and note 2, I seriously got to say that note 2 is winning by a little. Maybe self preference though hmm.gif
*
Note 2 thrumps highly over S3 on its battery life - easily double that of S3
Performance wise i'd say is marginal improvement
Buy it, if you need a bigger display and its S Pen features

ya, local sets will be whatever tech is available now. LTE can only start in 2013. even then, no idea if any network wants to start LTE on 1st jan itself... so no distri will wanna bring in LTE. not even sure if they can actually bring it in...  maybe some regulations, etc...

but i wonder if AP distris can actually bring in LTE sets (maybe by accident?!?)... though i think LTE sets... ours should follow SG set (radio frequency should be the same/ similar).
*
LTE model is a different code N7105

Worry unnecessary
This is not iPhone where users are crazy over it
This feed only a unique group of users as most still find is too big as a phone

really like the cropping feature using spen and then be able to share it out to various apps. awesome.

also the battery life of this mammoth isn't like what you guys experienced before. You have to try to believe it.
*
Battery life is just unbelievable.. It sips not burn
User will definitely not be talking how to have better battery life

hi uncle benny, the battery life you meant is even with 3G on?

my s2 with 3g can only last me 6hours max. what about your note 2 now?
*
Yes with 3g on browsing alone 8-12%/hour
With 3g on n active notification from mail,gmail,Facebook n tweets average 1-2 % per hour
This is more than twice that of note
Plus some in between call, sms , YouTube, browsing 1-2 hours easily lastme 14-18 hours

Hdmi cable is ok. But you can only use galaxy s3 mhl adapter to connect to lcd tv. The old mhl adapter will not work

Pics to show Nilkin hard backcase on the Note 2 : perfect and nice fit
I like the back texture - it gives one a better grip on the phone. A nice cover over the awful grey back "metallic like" case
I quite like the Grey color and finds it looks much better than the black of the original Note

For those who have been using for few days, how does it feel after installing dozens of apps? still feel lag? i think any phone will feel lagless out of the box. but can feel the lag later after using for few days, after restoring contacts, whatsapps, fb, all other real-time notification apps, etc.. mind to give a quick answer? my hand soooo itchy to buy this beast!
*
No noticeable lag with 100+ apps installed
Geez this word lag does not exist I would say in the Note2. Cannot comment about games as I don't play games except Scrabble.

but sometime they will tease it with a post in their FB page, at least will show the date of launching without indicate pricing or bundle first.  Or just showing registration of interest since Samsung Malaysia already announced the official launch day is Oct 11.  I think there is normally some tease or some indication when will be the celco's launch date.  This time it is too quiet......  or is it us who are too anxious  tongue.gif

not really, like Benny said, some just cannot accept the screen size.  One of them is my wife, she still prefer her S3, saying its screen size is just nice.  She find S3's screen quite "big" coz she upgraded from 3.7" HTC Desire.  laugh.gif
*
One get used to phone size after , say 1-2 weeks usage. Especially if you have used the Note before, it is quite difficult to accept a smaller display. Pocket-ability has never been any issue with me as i wear baggy pants and deep pockets 3/4 casual shorts. I even carried my 7+ inch tablet comfortably in my pants/shorts pockets

The first thing my youngest son said was " so big the phone" when i got him a S3. He immediately compared it with his 7 year old SE . Now he is very comfortable with it and he told me the iphone 4s was so miserably small and how could people view such a small display for browsing, facebook, tweets , newsfeed etc???

You guys see any events posting of such at all major malls in KL ??
Probably 19 Oct is the more realistic date ?
