One tip to those who are thinking of trying OS ver 4.2. and above eg CM 10.1
Android after OS 4.2 has change the file structure
If you installed such roms, all your existing internal SDcard stuffs will be transferred over to anew folder /internal storage/0
"internal storage can be sdcard0 or sdcard depending on what file explorer you used
The point is there is now a new folder "0"
Additional files will be created in the /internal storage
If you were , say to reinstall back a TW based rom after installing a CM10.1 rom, this file structure remains
You can of course copy back all your stuffs in the "0" folder to internal storage and than delete everything in the "0" folder - phone will still works fine
However you cannot delete this "0" folder even using say root explorer. It will stay there
The only way to get rid of this "0" folder is to format your internal storage in recovery mode. Copy all your stuffs to PC first , than just copy back after format
Ver 4.2 and above allows you to create multi user in a phone. That means you can have more than one user having their own set of apps, settings, themes etc. The "0" folder is your personal folder

Tested Redpill v1.0 on Monx rom 0301 since yesterday. All his settings taken at default and did not bother to tweak anything. Happy to report battery drain is better by about 1-2 %. Example last night , over 7 hours with 3G actively on , wifi off, gps off and with FB notifications, email , tweeter refresh in background battery drop was only 2 % ( i think is less than 2 % as battery level stays on even after an hour without use ) vs 3-4% on Perseus 29.1 kernel

On the other hand, my battery tends to drop quite a lot these 3 three days.
Nothing has been changed. sad.gif

My Note 2 since day one till now, battery life has always being excellent on official to all the custom roms I have tested
I have in fact reported I don't see any significant ( above 5%) battery usage differences between all the roms
My 3G is on 24/7 and I leave it at auto all the time. Screen brightness is at about 10-20% maximum
I have set power savings mode and I do not tweak any UV, OC stuffs. I have Juice defender Ultimate installed using too its default settings
Battery is definitely NOT an issue with me unlike the previous Note

If I want to flash XXDLL4 v03-rev01, I need to flash for XXDLL4 ROM first? I cannot use it with my XXDLK7 right?

Er, I think my battery issue is happening again. More than 10% gone in less than an hour. doh.gif

If I want to flash back to stock ROM from monx, what will be the suggested way? Thanks guys. smile.gif

You can flash directly on top xxdlk. If you are on monx xxdlk just wipe caches will do. Other xxdlk rom select wipe data too

Stock rom best use mobile Odin ( to preserve root ) or Odin in PC ( wil remove root n cwm)

Anyone using without SP? My SP ran out of position, plan to remove and let it bare for awhile while waiting for my next one to arrive.

Never believe in using one
I even demo to my friends dragging scissors n blade across display n absolutely no scratch
Only sand particles harder than glass will scratch it

Er it's fine if I use XXDLK7 and when I use custom ROM like Phoenix I chose LK6 modem? I remember I was given with this selection when I tried to flash it.
DS is normal just that when I started using my phone my battery will start draining. If I switch off my screen the battery drop us pretty normalized just that when I start using it, the party will begin.

You can flash any modem on any rom
Change modem as often as you like
Till today I never change my modem unless the rom changes it

My personal experience Kingston SDcards seems more reliable than Sandisk . However biggest size Kingston I have used is 32 GB class 6 BUT I do notice writing speeds is very much slower ( at least 50%) vs Sandisk class 6 32 GB

Eh guys~ i seen this question before but i am not sure where it is liao.
How do I check whether my phone is already register in E warranty.
If let say i get the phone to SC, do i need to bring any verification thing for him?(Proof of purchase) or they can straight away check my phone's serial number.
*
You will recieved a SMS confirmation from Samsung if the seller has register e warranty for you

OR check it by sending a SMS : PC imei no to 62002 for maxis/digi or 33802 mfor celcom

NO need to bring any proof of purchase - your phone serial no n imei is good enough

Just a reminder to new users. Do not ever attempt to flash any stuffs unless you have done at least a nandroid backup . You can use either CWM or TWRP recovery
This backup could be your life saver when your phone goes blank or cannot reboot

Once you flash any rom whether official or custom , all your previous swap is defaulted back to original
It is not necessary to unswap it

Still debating, lol I actually have green light to get this phone, I'm sure it's awesome, but do I really need it :3 Any college people here?

College student ???
Why you NEED such a high end smartphhone ?
If money is not a problem ( freely given by your parents willingly) - go ahead
If you are on a tight budget, DON'T . Money is better spend elsewhere. Get a lower end smartphone or a used unit
Personally even I can easily afford it, I refused to spend such money on my 3 children. Smartphone is purely a WANT not a NEED. I do not hesitate to spend RM5K on a macbook air for them as this aid in their studies. Smartphones do not. Infact all my 3 children graduated from university with RM300-500 basic handsets ( and they used it 5-7 years)

Why you keep asking this question ??
Is rooted and answer was already given to you in your last posting
Verify it by downloading and testing out Quickboot, Titanium Backup, ADaway - these apps required root
