QUOTE(MaGNiFiCo @ Jan 10 2013, 07:26 PM) im guessing this thread gonna filled with users from the rebate later on. good thing then yeah lol btw before this, i've use many android devices such as SGS2 and Xperia S. most of them i already root and put custom firmware (MIUI!).. but for this BP2 i think i'll stick to stock rom as i've tested and its smooth enough for daily use.

/offtopic abit this afternoon while i "hunt" BP2 from shop to shop around Subang area, there's this 1 shop (actually a kiosk) in Carrefour Subang that tries to sell me a fake Note2. imagine this - he says its a brand new Note2. price 699. got samsung logo summore. so i quickly go to setting and tried to press few times on version. nothing happens lol. and this "Note2" only got 4" screen i only can imagine if someone who dont know anything about android phone fall for this. kesian wooo.

QUOTE(moniqee @ Jan 12 2013, 08:46 AM) if you want the casing only... I saw plenty at the Mines HTC shop opposite TGV 3rd floor... haha been there last night. sadly they also dont have BP2 stock. tried to sell me Insight instead @ RM399 (after rm200 rebate) lol. I dont like Insight as the body looks too cheap while BP2 looks solid n sturdy. And its feels laggy. And yes, they have many cover/casing for BP2.

Most phone shop at Mines now got "Accept RM200 Rebate Here". But I do recommend these 2 shops as the salesperson was nice Both HTC shop. 1st one located same level as TGV cinema, opposite the ticket counter. the 2nd shop is located at 4th floor. its on your most right when you come from escalator near the cinema entrance. be careful though. some shop wanna make extra rm100 profit so they try to sell it @ rm399, not rm299. just leave the shop if they sell @ rm399.

QUOTE(creative zn @ Jan 13 2013, 12:02 PM) Ah. I know that HTC shop in lvl 3. Thanks man. Will do some survey there. Act dunno want to get BP2 or Insight. Both tempting. hmmm i've seen n test both BP2 and Insight. BP2 feels alot smoother than Insight. Insight's body feels to "plastic-y" compared to solidness of BP2. However I dont know if Insight do/dont have battery life problem as BP2.

Here's some warning if you want to send your BP2 for upgrade. BACKUP! EVERYTHING! including apps settings! use Titanium Backup if your BP2 is rooted. My BP2 after upgrade become stock again. Of course all my files, contacts, SMS, etc3 is intact. but the setting all haywire. all apps need to re-setting again. like MMS setting on my GOSMS app, icons placing on my MiHome launcher, etc. really messy to do that again Before sending it to upgrade, i've rooted my BP2 and remove some useless apps like M-Warranty, QQ Browser, QQ Doctor, etc3. The upgrade RESTORES all that back. Also noted that they dont mind if your BP2 is rooted or not. So dont worry, they still accept your BP2 even its rooted. Heck, I dont think they even check root status LOL!
