That length seems pretty decent based on the length. You wouldnt want a charger that is too long kan  laugh.gif

Ya I just need a decent length that I can lie on bed playing my phone while it charges. The original one (USB cable) is too short and I had to adjust my posture just to accommodate to the length... sweat.gif

I'm buying third unit, this time is for my sister since her adapter has started to hiss quite badly.
She hasn't got the time to go and replace both of our adapter. doh.gif

My current avg never get 1800. Ranges from 1400 - 1600.  cry.gif This charger can get 1800 & with long cable. 
Very nice drool.gif

Ya, amazing cheap stuff. laugh.gif
Now my battery is fully charged so will check the unit in the office whether it has the same current avg or not when I charge in office.

has anyone here REALLY renew their whatapps service before?
Coz android whatapps is free for the first year and then year after is RM3.00 (USD $0.99) per year

Last time few ppl here claim their whatapps was auto renew to lifetime, and some say whatsapp will auto FREE renew for u when close to expired date..

And for me, by right my expire date was 5/1/2013... somehow, they just extend 2 more months to 5/3/2013, and today i got another notification saying my whatsapp will be expired at 2014 May lol...

I wonder what's the point of saying $0.99 per year since they will auto free renew for us haha LOL… In short, android also enjoying free lifetime service gua...  biggrin.gif
*
I have free for lifetime, amazing. biggrin.gif
USD 0.99 is so cheap yet people still complain. doh.gif

i won't go on to say its complain...

i'm also one of those that prefer to use something else other than whatsapp... mainly because i know that whatsapp have the right to one day start charging me.

as i have pointed out before on other threads... usd0.99 is yes, cheap and very affordable. but what i am not too particularly happy about is the discrimination -- ios guys get it for only usd0.99 for 'lifetime'. the other platforms is usd0.99 per year.

and yes... we save a lot from having to pay telco. again my point is...

whatsapp isn't really that great to begin with. emoticons are sooooOOOOooo outdated. it can't do calls.

take a look at LINE. it's free. emoticons are super cool (to me anyway since i like IN YOUR FACE AND SUPER BIG stickers). you can make calls. heck, can even install on PC and send/ receive messages on PC. like whatsapp, its also cross platform.

so, given that i have better alternatives, i just can't see myself bowing down to whatsapp and paying usd0.99 for it.
*
Oh well, let's put it this way I didn't know for Android it is just for one year even though the paid version. tongue.gif tongue.gif
Yes, I transferred from iOS devices hence for lifetime. sweat.gif

Try omega sis. V12 quite good. But I not sure ur preference la tongue.gif

Ya, will look into it. Looks interesting by looking at the huge fan base. laugh.gif
However, I really like 4.2 apps icons. Emotion Note and Hawkish spoilt me with those icons.
If Omega has those or I can do my own customization for the icons, I will consider trying it. biggrin.gif

Aint sure bout that becoz I am not into theming. My preference are always stability smoothness and battery friendly. Simple theming ok for me. Like simplistic framework. Worth the donation to dev.
*
Until today I'm still unsure how simplistic framework works. sweat.gif
Fortunately for me, both Emotion Note and Hawkish offer me good user's experience and with absolutely great battery life. Well, have to be fair, part of the reason for the good battery life is because of RedPill kernel. biggrin.gif

Absolutely but again I depend on you guys to report here once the leak is out. tongue.gif
I'm sure by then I won't be the first one. laugh.gif
I do admit, I'm really waiting for 4.2.1 laugh.gif

we might get a leak around march(like I predicted quite a while ago tongue.gif) and maybe an official update around May. But since 4.2 isn't really different than 4.1, we might even get it earlier;mid April would be the fastest I think.

Oh yes, next android version will be out on May, so the waiting will start again then laugh.gif

They are gonna be adding WiFi hotspot to the notification panel with the 4.2 update rclxm9.gif that's the only toggle missing for me. I guess they really have people reading XDA forum to see what people want lol
*
Yes, not much updates but at least the fancy icons (that's for me. tongue.gif)
Until today I haven't used the WiFi hotspot feature simply because DiGi is not worth to be shared. laugh.gif

I guess there's a reason why they've been giving the same updates to us for a long time. Most probably after releasing the "batt drain fix" 4.1.2, they have started on 4.2.and to make sure people don't start shouting, they just re-release the same damn thing to make everyone keep quiet tongue.gif
*
To be honest, you can have all the fancy icings on the cake but if your battery life sucks, it basically shoos away the users... Nobody wants to use a smartphone with crappy battery life. (No offence to iPhone users. sweat.gif)

My cousin is using Nexus 4 and the most recent update does fix the battery life issue. So, I hope Samsung could pick up the same thing and do something to Note II's battery life. Coming from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2, while I love all the updates 4.1.2 give, I must admit the battery life somehow gets shortened compared to 4.1.1. Still, with all the extra features of 4.1.2, they do compensate the loss of that little battery life. My personal opinion la. biggrin.gif

Again, with more users like tot31, I believe Samsung will stop concentrating on their battery life issue. laugh.gif

yeah 4.2.2 fixes the crazy batt drain that plagued almost every nexus 4 users. Would be nice to see batt life comparable to 4.1.1 with the update, although for me at least, Im getting the same SOT with 4.1.1 even on DLL7 which is considered as the batt drain firmware tongue.gif but idle batt life is much more worse....

Would be nice to get an average of 8 hours SOT and good idle batt with 4.2.2 biggrin.gif( average about 7 hrs SOT now)
*
Mine is just average and I'm still finding possible reasons for the battery drain.
Can get max 36H or 38H with 3-4H of SOT. hmm.gif That's the best performance.
Like now around 27H but just nearly 2H of SOT. hmm.gif

QUOTE(tot31 @ Feb 23 2013, 08:30 AM)
kakak, mind to elaborate more ....  laugh.gif

for me SOT is not that important as I can get around 6 hrs in heavy usage which is enough for me on my Note 2 but I am more leaning towards the max battery life in idle time as I am not a really heavy user.

BTW my battery life on rooted stock DMB4

[attachmentid=3317501]

tongue.gif I mean if more users like you, with awesome battery life, Samsung will no longer acknowledge that battery drain is one of issues. tongue.gif

No more ads? At least this is what I saw from free version, asks to upgrade to paid version to eliminate ads.

This seems to happen whenever i leave Mobile Data on for some time i.e. half hour then it suddenly restarts.

No such issue.
Rooted? Custom ROM? Kernel?
