Just called Maxis and i am eligible for MOC offer but it's not as cheap as we think. 12 months contract with 3gb data plan is RM146 monthly commitment. Breakdown is call RM78 + data RM68! The device is RM1799 I think. Do you think is a good deal?

My average bill is RM120 with miserable 500mb data. I think is ok since I get a new phone. Bigger screen. Maybe more YouTube and surfing. Upgrade 3GB seems alright.

White looks really good... Wonder if it will be a challenge to find a suitable case for it.

I am holding a Maxis line and would like to remain with Maxis.

I need your help to determine which plan is worth it for me. I am considering the RM50 for call and RM48 for 1GB data. Tell me if this is right based on my usage shared in the attachment.

Currently, my data plan is only 500MB

are you planning to mnp to other telco? your current contract seems suit your usage pattern. or u think the data allocation is not enuff?

No, I am using Maxis and plan to remain in Maxis. My current plans only give me 500MB. I thinking RM50 for call and RM48 for data should be enough. What you think?

what is your data usage pattern?
*
I am having 500MB now but sometimes use up to 1GB. Of course, I have a choice of:
A) Connect to WiFi when it's available so 1GB should be enough
B) Just pay the RM20 difference and get the 3GB and cant be bothered with WiFi.

Many tells me to choose Option A.

QUOTE(Fallenangelz @ Oct 19 2012, 06:47 PM)
with the current VPI80 your expenses is around RM110, where your usage is slightly more than 300mins of talktime and a bit extra on sms, while you need more data.

so i think talkmore48+internet value 48 will be better. just my suggestion though *takes out galaxy shield*
*
I think you make sense but I dont think the TalkMore48 is part of the offer so I will just go with RM50 call and RM48 data.

i do recommend A as well.

First A require less battery compare to 3G network

Second A gives u a more consistent and stable over wifi usually.

I choose A for cost saving

but if money and battery is not an issue go for B

Thanks for your feedback, it really helps a blur case such as myself. I am planning to head out to Maxis BBT One to get my white unit tomorrow. Anything I need to look out for?

Sorry to ask this but this was one of the reasons I left android about 2-3 years back.

If I download and install an APK not meant for Note II size of 5.55", what happens? Do I get a black line on the screen?

Back then I downloaded a trial game for HTC Legend and installed on HTC Desire. Game resolution turned out ugly. Wonder if the same problem still persist today.

Ok here's what I did.

While the iPhone Dropbox is still logged in, I setup my Dropbox on the Note 2. I didn't know the Dropbox screen was part of the setup.

After I login I realize my Dropbox only had 2GB. I unlinked Dropbox from both devices and try again with Note 2. It still showed 2GB.

I'm worried now. Please help.

"No phone account contacts to merge with Google account."

This is the error I get when I try to merge my existing contacts with my Gmail.

I've already sync my iPhone to iTunes and set it to sync with Google contacts.

Anyone can help?

I was formerly from iOS . If you have upgraded your itunes to latest version , you cant sync contacts to google anymore  . Many people in this forum have suggested that but it is just not possible with latest version.

For contacts use my contacts backup available free on apps store. You then email to your google gmail as a vcf file.you open the file in gmail then safe it to gmail contacts. If there are duplicates there is an option in gmail to merge duplicate contacts. You then sync gmail with android phone.

Alternatively you can use easy phone sync on your pc and android  for contacts and sms . Just google and follow instructions.

For photos I just copied from iPhone and pasted to android

Thanks for your advise, somehow I managed to do it. I setup Exchange (Gmail) and then sync over from iPhone to Gmail (Contacts) and then sync back. Something like that, I forgot what I did but I click so many times and round and round and repeat and finally got it to work.

I'm happy to say that all contacts is in my Note II now.

All I need is:
memory card
cover

Yes the plan must register under your wife number and actually it is not worth it. Go look for note 2 price comparison.

Aspire2oo6,

Curious question. After applying the liquid armor, will it cause the back cover to stick together and later cannot be removed?

I know it's silly question but just had to ask.
