QUOTE(spikey2506 @ Nov 29 2012, 12:30 AM) Fill in your details here. Wait for a couple of days and then The Star will email you with the details on your free subscription. I got mine a couple of days ago. One thing though, the connection to the app is absolute crap. Took me quite a while to download a complete paper http://www.samsung.com/my/thestarepaper/yes, with the latest promotion of RM360 for both ePaper and physical newspaper, I think it will make the situation worse if they do not upgrade their server bandwidth. Sometime it may take 1 whole day to finish download 1 day paper.  1 hour is quite normal in the morning. Definitely will not pay for this kind of service. But since it is free, just bear with it at the moment.

Note II is really a jinx device - drop it from the edge of my table to the floor just now.  it broke into 4 pieces - phone, battery, battery cover and Nillkin hard case.  Luckily not a scratch after assemble it back in 1 piece.  But i really never drop my Note I or my any other android device so bad. QUOTE(jun88 @ Nov 29 2012, 03:36 PM) Just received message from Maxis.... RM0: Great news for mobile internet users on 1GB & above plans. Effective 3/12/12, upon exceeding your plan quota, you may continue browsing at a reduced speed for FREE as we have removed the RM0.30/MB charges. However, to enjoy browsing at a regular speed, we recommend you purchase a quota upgrade by dialling *136*9# yup, got this minutes ago too. Just wondering how slow is the reduce speed.

QUOTE(Fallenangelz @ Nov 29 2012, 05:02 PM) my heart stopped a few secs when i read to that part "it broke into 4 pieces" lol.... i can be a script writer already.  luckily the phone was face up when i accidentally push it over the edge. So basically it landed on the back cover. Must be really careful with this beast. If mine is white colour, the accident might not happen coz the grey colour with black nillkin case is not so noticeable on my dark brown table top. It is in stealth mode.

QUOTE(Ghostblind @ Nov 29 2012, 05:10 PM) is it true.. note II cannot transfer apps without root ? you means cannot transfer apps to run in microSD? answer is yes but not becoz of Note II hardware but becoz of Android system, since ICS (correct me if i am wrong).

My s pen cant function well. ..I x sure its because of screen pprotector or my s pen defects? yes, I am using it since I got the Note II at launch. No problem at all for finger touch or SPen. Added on November 30, 2012, 9:59 amQUOTE(yoshi86 @ Nov 30 2012, 09:37 AM) where is the global HQ that you went to? what is your phone issues? i feel that it should be case by case basis. since mine is 1 day old phone, they should do DOA for me. even the maxis manager help to call lowyat samsung branch manager, she advice go PJ HQ as there had higher authority and i need push and bang their table a bit then they will proceed to exchange for me. yes, sometime be nice cannot solve the issue - must show temper a bit.

Got a new replacement battery from Samsung SC for my Note I yesterday. Flashed it to the latest LSA JB ROM. Although also on JB, but can feel it not as responsive compared to Note II. So Note II Quad-core CPU and 2GB ram really make a difference.

QUOTE(andrewtho @ Nov 30 2012, 01:01 PM) So many problems stated above, a little worried for my 2 days old N2 liao  Hopefully all goes down well la they are just the 2-3 unlucky ones among the others hundred plus users in the "registered" list. If you are worried, dun do any root/mod to your Note II first until maybe after 1 month when you think it should be a good unit.

QUOTE(suntzulee @ Nov 30 2012, 03:14 PM) Let's not penny wise pound foolish. Think again for maxis 24mths contract. After all you may spend more. I always buy outright as i know its the best of value. not really, it suit me perfectly. Just that i can't tahan the temptation and bought it 1 day before the launch without plan.

QUOTE(antt00 @ Nov 30 2012, 03:28 PM) Wonder how much they slowdown.. if like digi throttled speed totally tak boleh pakai. Might as well say no data after the limit.  better than overcharging. I prefer them to suspend the data service than charging me extra since if you really need the extra data, can just pay more to get it.

QUOTE(Lynixx @ Nov 30 2012, 04:16 PM) Off topic im using digi smart plan 68, thinking of changing to maxis surf 75...how am I gonna do that? And will I get extra charge if I exceed the quota? are you currently on contract with DiGi? If not, pay all your outstanding DiGi bills. Then step into Maxis tell them you want to sign up new line for surfmore 75. While registering, tell them you want to port your DiGi line over. They will give you a new sim card and do the necessary. If you are currently on contract with DiGi. Then beside settling all outstanding bills, tell them you are leaving them and ask them to calculate the penalty. Pay the penalty and you are free to go other celcos. This post has been edited by Cynox: Nov 30 2012, 04:22 PM

wow.... the normal computer USB port cannot increase the charge of the battery of Note II at all. Plug my phone to my computer since 2pm just now, the battery life has dropped from 51% to 50% with the phone idling with 3G and WiFi connected.

QUOTE(antt00 @ Nov 30 2012, 04:34 PM) Upgrade your usb port.  I am using it to tether in my office laptop and it always charge to the full while tethering. office PC, how to upgrade but there is USB3.0 port at the back panel. May try some day. QUOTE(gensys @ Nov 30 2012, 04:43 PM) I don't have any problem charging with my pc's usb. Just that Uncle Benny pointed out not do to so. and I did some research, it stated that usb charging is not so stable with the output so it would shorten the battery life. i dun really charge my Note II directly after i got my spare battery and desktop charger. Just that need to transfer some files from the device just now, so need to connect it via front casing USB port. With the desktop charger, normally i will have 1 fully charged battery standby.

QUOTE(Ghostblind @ Nov 30 2012, 05:01 PM) for me, i will not or never charge my phone directly from pc. Last time i did with my desire HD, after charged few hours, suddenly my phone dead. Tried few times to on but still cannot. Send back to HQ and the technical people call me and told that its the board is faulty...  wow.. so serious? i only refrain myself from charging in car. Use to charge my Note in office quite often. Maybe your computer USB port got spiked.

QUOTE(raven143 @ Dec 3 2012, 10:53 AM) does anyone knows how to turn off camera flash + notifications action? mine flashes every a notification comes in. happens only during silent mode though. i am on Omega Rom v 7.2 you mean your camera flash will flash when there is notification?  For normal turning off of flash in camera, just tap the flash icon to change. To turn off notification - Setting>>Display>>LED indicator>>untick Notifications. I am on Omega 7.2 but dun face this problem.
