Guys, help me...  I setup my Google account on my sister's Note II because she wanted me to add apps for her. Being the nice sister, I actually helped her since I have bought quite a lot of apps. Now here comes the problem, her contacts are sync-ed to my Google account and I really hated that a lot! I tried to delete them and this also deletes from her side.  Now her friends' WhatsApp also appearing on my WhatsApp list. Is there any way, I retain this Google account but I just want to disable the contact to be synced to my Contacts? I don't want any of the Google Contacts to be synced to my phone. Any solution? This post has been edited by fruitie: Mar 26 2013, 10:28 PM |

QUOTE(joytest @ Mar 26 2013, 10:29 PM) I thought you can select which account you want synced? In Setting>Accounts>Google I think. You select which account you want and there are options to sync Calendar, Contacts etc ... QUOTE(Noobi3 @ Mar 26 2013, 10:29 PM) Settings > Google > XXXXX@gmail.com > Sync contacts .... untick it . Not sure if it works , never try b4 . I know, I Googled and it shows the same results... There is no box for me to untick. Or am I doing the right thing? |

QUOTE(antt00 @ Mar 26 2013, 10:34 PM) Wah so messy.  There is suppose to be a box next to contacts, calender, etc. for you to tick to see what you wanna sync. No leh, I can't see the box, I don't see any box...  QUOTE(JayDevil @ Mar 26 2013, 10:37 PM) Try removing the account in Settings > Accounts > Google > xxx@gmail.com Cannot, I still need for my apps.. |

QUOTE(syNzoR @ Mar 26 2013, 10:55 PM) In the phone app, select the right side contact icon, hit your menu key, the select accounts, if you tick the auto sync app data and select your gmail account, you can see the checkbox to sync individual stuff such as contacts, calanders etc.. Note that if your auto sync app data is untick, you will not see any checkbox after you click your email account. Note sure if this works, maybe you can remove your account from your sis phone and delete 1 by 1 from your phone Oh God, you are truly savior! Got the boxes visible now.  OK, time to delete those contacts from phone book. Prays hard it works this time. I cannot remove my account from her phone because we are sharing apps...

QUOTE(joytest @ Mar 26 2013, 11:07 PM) Ok if it works will add to post 3  I called my sister and asked her to sync her contacts as I have deleted few of her contacts, she confirmed nothing was deleted from her side. QUOTE(antt00 @ Mar 26 2013, 11:08 PM) With that said, your contacts are not suppose to sync unless u manually press them. To get rid of your sis contacts. 1) Manually backup her contacts to sd internal or external. In contacts app, select to only show contacts from her account and back it up 2) Then just delete her contacts from your account. 3) If her contact really also ter-delete, restore it back from her manual backup. 1) Done 2) Doing now My only problem now is Google auto syncs contact when I add it... Big problem for ORD like me...  |

QUOTE(andrekua2 @ Mar 27 2013, 01:05 AM) Why are you so angry my friend? You already know these greedy people get all their phone for the same price regardless of colours. Just that they think we would pay more for brighter colours like white or pink. I rather buy the grey as a way to protest. I was given a choice for white or grey when I bought mine 2 days before launching.  Same price. In the end, I picked white. Still loving it, stepping into my 6th month with Note II. What's next? Note III then and I have this feeling I will lose at least RM 1k when Note III comes out because I will be selling off my Note II... |

QUOTE(suntzulee @ Mar 28 2013, 05:39 PM) i know where are you coming from....You already put me on your first post and now you still want to accuse me...wow, people like you if become a lawyer, there will be plenty of injustice cases or wrong judgement. I just wondering, luckily we dont have a mod such as you...else i rather leave this thread forever.....god is fair....and you are not and will never be...;.stop dreaming la bro...  I was about to quote joytest's example as well. You also attempted before to distribute pirated apps. If people go against you, you start bringing God's fairness issue here. I got from you before. Yes, you may start bringing God to me now. Enough with your sarcasm, I can be more sarcastic than you. The choice is whether I want or I don't want. Nobody is biased, you hit your own toe. In which of his words say that he wants to be mod, you have 6th sense? This post has been edited by fruitie: Mar 28 2013, 05:47 PM |

Probably > a month after S4 available in the market. Ya, it seems like it's. I'm going back to hometown today, will go shooting again tomorrow. Seriously no more improvement can be done to 4.1.2. |

I followed sklchan's guide too, I think the first one on 25th March. 1D6H with 4H SOT. Considered quite good for me.  |

QUOTE(sklchan @ Mar 29 2013, 11:19 AM) the screen brightness play VERY HUGE ROLE on the SOT... even the auto brightness sensor will drain batt juice... hehe  my average calculation you should get at least 10 hour of SOT with auto brightness on with 50% set at the brightness bar and you're in door lighting with wifi connection and using the web browser to surf... then if you always in dark area then u can simply turn the auto brightness off and set the brightness to minimum this will get u at least 12 hours SOT... sometimes we're really too obsess to power saving until it is just TOO MUCH!!! LOL Well, mine is auto brightness 50%, I think that's default right? I didn't change anything. I think I'm quite happy with what it is now. |

QUOTE(mydragoon @ Mar 29 2013, 05:18 PM) my 2A charger set arrived... i also bought some extra MicroUSB cables. initial test... nice. yes, can see 1800mAH. well, will try over the next few days and feedback next week. as for the microUSB cable... i noticed the microUSB tip is very much longer than the ones i have. i find that good too! tested on my computer so far and i can see the phone. also will test over the next few days and see if its good (stable -- my current cable not stable, every now and then, Windows 7 can't see and detect the phone. will also give me some weird error). many thanks to fruitie for the contact. You are welcome. I have used for months and it's still 1800mAh till today. Today's battery life is no good. Mainly because of wakelocks and bad signal.
