Okay guys, need some help. I did memory swap already. Everything's fine. Now one issue.

I downloaded some files via stock browser BUT I can't find it on my phone. Not sure where it is stored >.<

Anyway I could find it easier? I seriously check both internal and external and can't seem to find them honestly.

Last time terus masuk Download. Now, macam hilang already.
*
It will still be in download unless you have change it
I never faced such issue before
Swapping doesn't change anything
Only external sdcard is now internal memory

ANYONE try this before? any idea can it be done??
i call maxis and they say is samsung warranty and throw me to samsung.
i just sign up plan and get the phone on yesterday 2pm
*
if Maxis value you as a customer they should entertain you as it is only a day old set
No point calling as you will get standard answers following a written script
ASk nicely to see the Center manager where you got your phone and request a new set
And good luck

went surveying for memory card just now. 16gb for rm59 32gb for rm109. i thought last time can get 32gb below rm100, or is it just in my dream?  tongue.gif
*
Come on, the difference is only RM 10 from before. Try go round survey more to find the RM99 price ( few chaps got at this price ) . Do it if you think these extra efforts are worth the RM 10

It never even occur to me to spend money on which I deem as superflous unnecessary stuff even though i can easily afford it

Just tried the Wifi Explorer Pro, Airdroid interface seems better than Wifi Explorer Pro. Not that user friendly like Airdroid...that is my opinion.

Airdroid performance is poorer
It looks nice, feel nice but does not work nicely

Someone mention if you need to use the older MHL Cable you need to use an adapter for S3 and Note 2.
So I'm asking is this a direct MHL Cable for Note 2? Directly from Note 2 to HDMI?
*
There is no MHL cable only HDMI cable n you can use any type even those generic type
MHL adapter must be latest for galaxy S3 or Note2. Older models will not work
Original MHL adapter cost rm109
Imitation faked types about half or less the price
Problem with imitation if you play video continuously the video will stutter n that is according to my friend who deem original too expensive
I do not faced such issues on my original unit


Added on November 30, 2012, 7:26 amAnd I would say is a bad conclusion just because you have one bad experience buying from any specific shop eg senq example that all senq are bad
Such conclusion is illogical n senseless
One bad apple does not make whole batch bad
Example if you read garage sales buying phones from say directd you can read several grouses against them but you also can read excellent comments. Their business I'd like selling free stuff . Just pop in their shop anytime n see the crowd.

guys, i noticed that my note 2 wifi seems weird, provided that my computer connected to my house network flawlessly but note 2 sometimes will sot sot and cant run the network (I checked router etc and even tried on several phones but no problem at all), when i changed to data usage it worked ok....Checked the xda forum and found this:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1956155

Anyone experiencing network problem when connected to wifi? like it connected but cant run any network (cant load any browser, chatting etc) sometimes...any sifus know how to solve this?
*
Such issues if you see it repeating at other wifi hotspots - send in service center to check the WiFi chip
You read the XDA link - only guesses and to me having to even change your wifi channels is ridiculous. How are you going to do that when you are using some one else wifi network ? The phone should work normally without such attempts to change stuffs/settings

It is same scenario fior those who complain about poor GPS lockup. I never used those 3rd party GPS apps fixer. A good GPS chip will lock up within secs - mine always lock up within 5 secs on Sygic and most 10 sec on Google Maps. Those reporting required few minutes and must be in clear sunlight need to have their phone GPS chip check. You can use some 3rd party apps to assist but that is not solving actual problem
I faced such similar GPS slow lockup and disconnect in my previous HTC Touch Pro. It was an AP set and I return to the Seller at SS15 and he has the motherboard replace FOC and i got it back in 10 days - no more GPS locking up issues after that. So stop guessing the reasons and just sent in to check for potential hardware issues

Hissing sound in charger ? Saw this at Samsungupdate
http://www.samsungupdate.com/android-how-t...2-common-issues

Dunno how far true the answer is ??

Issue No. 3

Galaxy Note 2 charging sound, noise

The Galaxy Note 2 is such a powerful device, that it has a really big transformer, a 60Hz one. At night when it is really quiet in the room, you will probably hear a hissing noise made by the charger. That’s normal, it’s just the way it is. The fact that you hear that, only proves that you still have a good hearing

wow this NOTE 2 forum really moving fast now at version 10... reached page 100 and soon going V11 ha.. freaking hard to follow..

anyway i would like to have a NOTE 2.. but then thinking is it ok wait another 5 months, but worry NOTE 2 technology could be outdated after 5 months.. what extra features we could expect if buy after 5 months.. ? any significant improvements for current drawbacks ? increase of storage ?

or just get it now ?  what u guys opinion ? ofcoz getting after 5 months the price wont be same.. do you guys think, price at TELCOs which comes with bundle, will be drop or they maintain same price even after 5 months ?

confuseeeeeeeeeee
*
Mobile technology moving every fast. Whatever whichever phone you buy will be outdated in 6-10 months
So if you worry about such don't buy as you will be dissapointed few months later

its okey =)
i just want to know why they provide me a sim card locked phone in lowyat~
FYI my phone is AP set, coz since back then i was only using AP, because I think its just the warenty.
so its means that mine's a bit cheaper, n with a problem!
hehe
help me solve this anyone?
*
Go back to seller n ask him to unlock it
If he cannot do it ask for refund
Hope you did not get a USA set
Normal AP are unlock
Yours is probably tied to foreign telecom
Don't try solve yourself since you just bought it

That is worst thing to do
If set is lock to telco no way any flashing can unlock it
There is a detailed step how to do it
I done it before on SGS2 for a friend and is not for faint hearted
Sorry friend you just got cheated
Don't ask us why you got cheated

from the studies, i cant find anything that can be use to unlock note II sim lock
*
Don't ever attempt to do yourself unless you are very knowledgeable
Even me I pray first before doing.
It is not your fault
Go back to seller
Hope you got it very cheap as lock sets max is around rm1000 only as buyer expected to know how to unlock

Your phone is lock to a foreign telco. Either go back to the seller like uncle Benny said or if you know what telco you can Google to see if there is a way to unlock it.


Added on December 1, 2012, 7:29 amPeople should really thoroughly test their phone before buying it dun matter sme or ap.
*
Plenty seedy sellers at lowyat especially those selling from kiosks stand
They capitalize on tourists n buyer ignorance
Worst place to buy AP sets

Satugadget is good and trusted seller . He has a very big shop ( about 3 times normal shoplot) at wisma pgrm. You can go there and have handson demo
Other popular and reliable sellers : directd at SS15, item.com at USJ Summit, alieamin ( his company several outlets in Kland and KL) - all these contacts at garage sales
Price keep changing every day - eg about 3 weeks ago i was at satugadget - Note 2 SME was RM 1975+++ but 2 days later due to shortage it went up to RM 2080


Added on December 1, 2012, 9:35 amFor those who just love the 15 toggle modes here is MORE - the latest 23 toggles from Wannam - just flash it from recovery. It ONLY works on all DEODEXED XXDLJ2 Roms ONLY! ( any developer)

Most users here reports charging time from say 10% to full is about 3 + hours only. Mine is slight under 3 hours but i am not using original charger. I used my ipad USB desk charger and a HTC USB cable

It never happen at all. My phone auto display off after 30 sec. Transferring files say even 1gb rom usually take up to 1-2 mins
Probably is your poor wifi connection
Display off does not mean phone operations are down
