Even US Congress has stated that Jailbreaking and Rooting are NOT illegal....hahahaha obviously fruit company is trying its best to bend the law over to shaft you and lock you down to their platform forever.

As posted yesterday, got it from teddie and sprayed...now it's 24 hrs later screen feels smooth but obviously u can't see any film or residue. Perhaps I can try to scratch w my keys....

What is the plugin for azdrama? See some lego brick in the middle. Using stock browser.
Unless only supported on desktop.

Ok now I have to buy the latte. I did see pptv before but never had any real interest due to streaming quality. Now I see u mention ppstream. A bit of checking seems to indicate that it is a different service. Apa macam arrrr.

What apps are those care to inform? I mean, you can just provide the app name.

Macha, use Waze. Turn on your data, semua boleh tengok.

Don't think Waze sucks all that much data. Again, if paranoid can uncheck background data in Android settings. I think Onavo can control app downloading also.

Well, in my limited telco experience, I agree Maxis provides the fastest experience so they can always get bragging rights. I have a maxis and a celcom data line. Maxis is always higher speed.

Sorry bro.

Anyway, without data, waze behaves like your standard GPS. Happened to me while driving along Gua Musang road.

Anyway, for some geek goodness, I installed and launched Ubuntu 12.04 LXDE on my note, and fired up the browser from within it.....woohoooooooo

Yes it works. It's like running off a netbook, tradeoff is expected. However, if they use Linaro optimizations, I believe the speed will fly when they incorporate in the next img. I have some ideas on what to run

I'm now looking at how to add repos to the install so can pull in stuff.

more geek goodness.

sudo apt-get install synaptic works....shows up in the system too

heheheheheh........

this is typed in chrome within lxde on my note2 using the stock keyboard

The new bootloader checks. No escape there but as many have said, Samsung msia dont care when yr set is ori

All,

Look at all the 11 sensors we got on GNote 2. I used Quick System Info Pro and there's a section to view sensors.

Screenshot2


It has Gravity and Gyroscope sensors, has a barometer as well, the latest sensor from Bosch.

Imagine the possibilites.

I believe the fixed function devices you need to buy to get all these sensors are going to cost you about 1.5k at least.


Super phone indeed !!!!

I like DIY where I am able to and have been in IT for a sufficiently long time, so I'm pretty familiar with general stuff of what you can and cannot do with technology.

I love to find out what max capabilities my device can do, and I love the philosophy of being able to do what you can with the device you PAID for instead of sitting and smelling the flowers in a walled garden.

Well, if you can install a fully working Linux desktop on your HANDPHONE, imagine what you can actually do.....

VNC into any configured server....run and control your home automation.....

Any other sifus with imagination can add to this.

And this is all possible for the not too princely price of RRP 2299.

You look at some stuff, auto GPS tracking via handphone....costs you an arm and a leg (almost).....well, you can configure your own and do it wayyyyy cheaper.

Change to Omega v4 ROM. It allows Camera sound to be turned off.

I'm having it naked at the moment. How are you "waiting" for them to arrive from China? Taobao? Or wait for the flood of bulk cases?

Sure, even the US Librarian of Congress agrees that jailbreaking and rooting are LEGAL.

Pray tell, what site? I do see some sites like Sunsky or Aliexpress, but since tai ka che has ordered from someplace, should give that a shot.

Added on October 22, 2012, 12:55 amA custom rom is basically the OS that has been modified, sometimes with special tweaks or additional apps. Since Android is based on Linux (ie Unix), there are 2 major pieces, Kernel and Userland.

You can change either or both. That is the beauty of a proper OS. Some features need stuff enabled in kernel, some features need other userland pieces and/or stuff enabled in kernel.

CWM is a method of loading both the kernel and userland, which comes after you've changed to a kernel that has CWM support.

Use the GNote 2 Allinone toolkit on xda. VERY EASY. The longest time you spend is actually reading the instructions.

Just follow it all with onscreen prompts.
