Yes, being a latecomer into the telco business.
They weren't granted with any 2G licence, so they have to rent from other telcos.
Been years on Celcom and only last year 2H changed to Maxis.

IMO Celcom's 2G was better than Maxis.

Dear guys,

How to solve more than 5 hours Note II charging problem ? Recently my charger hissing sound getting louder and louder. Then i noticed it will only have full charged after about 5hours+. 1 more thing i noticed was when in charging mode,go to the battery option in setting,it stated "charging AC''.
*
If its taking that long during AC means its the charger issue liao. Go to SC and replace it

Flashed Omega V10 today instead. Had issues with Monx rom. This morning the error codes kept popping up. Google search has stopped working, touchwiz has stopped working etc. Phone cannot use at all.

Pray hard Omega rom wont be like that

LOL.. Responds here as expected. Anyway doesn't matter, as I said clearly, I just need to vent out my frustration with my Note 2.

And for those cheapos offering me mere hundreds for it, well you can keep your few cents, i dont need them.

And for those asking why am i still using, well i just own it, as well as a iPhone and also a Blackberry. And i am using all 3 at the same time. And I am 100% confident with my review being objective and straightforward. It is unfortunate to those who cant accept that individuals have rights to their own view, as much as any forum member here has the right to post.

And well, the only reason many of you guys here automatically redirects the comparison to iPhone/iOS even when it wasnt mentioned as so, guess you guys do know the inferiority of the Note 2/Android.
*
Let's put this into picture okay.

Note 2 and iPhone 4s / 5 are no match for each other. Simple. One is a basic smart phone, the other is an all in one 'phablet' which allows you to have best of both world (tablet / phone) in one device.

This is coming from someone who has been using iOS since 3.0. I've always been an Apple loyalist. Only recently I've migrated to Android and joined the Note 2 clan here. There are so many things which I can do with my Note 2 compared to my previous iPhone 4s. Note 2 can torrent, browse flash websites, rip files from .rar files and directly open and view the contents inside, music player with awesome quality? Sorry to say that, iPhone can do non of those. Heck, even a certain music or video format can only be played via iTunes. Mp3, mp4 and Apple Lossless only. Android can play most of the available formats.

Next, S-Pen useless? To us, it's useless. But for others, it's a good thing. Everyone has their own purpose or usage for the S-Pen. Resolution and sharpness? I do agree Note 2 lost on this part, but judging from the huge screen, they cannot be blamed for that.

Most important feature of the Note 2 that has the MOST SIGNIFICANT ADVANTAGE over the iPhone 1-5? BATTERY LIFE. Can your iPhone do a full day H+ with one single charge? Let me give you the answer. No.

It's not about being a fan boy or whatsoever. It's about opening your eyes to see other things as well. Don't be a frog in a well.

Used to be a diehard iPhone fan since 07. Switched to android in 11 and I love it.
The difference between android and iOS: iOS is like living in a nice hotel. You don't have a lot of choice but it looks nice and easy to use.
Android is like buyingg your own home. Buy an really nice home (android device) and you will probably love it. You can change and customize it however you want. It's yours! You can also buy cheap.

Yup I agree.

Love the part where I can flash different roms to beautify my phone. sweat.gif

Open box usually for custom check etc. The retailers need to open to check if the phone is working or any accessories missing anot nod.gif

I mean there are 2 blue Samsung security sticker with serial number on it, the sticker once tear open can not stick back one.

once the box open by seller, it can be used as demo to any customer who wanted to see, ( feel like the phone has been rape by many customer before reach my hand)

Yeah thats why I use a cloth and wipe kao2 before I use it. But the phone still got those seal attached, still okay la. If no seal then rclxub.gif

i think both of you misunderstand me. autolock is the idle time set before the phone screen off and locks.
if coming from iphone, u get that via cydia, sbsettings

http://www.appleiphoneschool.com/2009/01/2...ock-sbsettings/

the ones both of you mentioning is locking the phone without using the physical button on the note

Dude. You dont need Cydia or SB Settings to set a screen lock time doh.gif
