Is there any difference between the 4GB version vs the 8GB version apart from the size of internal space?

Cuz am thinking getting the 4GB is enough since got expandable microSD slot. Can root it then push stuff onto microSD instead.

Thanks.

Erm... is this phone by default already using CWM recovery?
Installed ROM Manager and it seems to suggest that I have both TWRP and CWM recovery, or maybe I interpret it wrongly...

oic not custom recovery, any link on guide to install custom recovery on this phone? tried searching with no clear result tho..

thanks! very nice and organised all-in-one guide.

Less than 1 day old phone, now rooted, flashed CWM recovery, flashed SLXROM.

Now on Nexus-like ROM, no more clunky stock rom. All was so easy to flash without fuss.

Nope, 8GB model.

Next, homescreen customisation with holo launcher and gravity box.

yup, so far so good but yet to explore more, missing some feature that I used to have in Galaxy Nexus Cataclysm rom tho.. Now finding a way to not have that many toggle on my notification bar.

Mine is 8GB version, works fine.

CWM 6.0.1.5

u mean the one in usb dongle modem?
Inside the dongle got sim card, just not sure can put into phone and use or not, interested to find out too.

so far my experience with this phone rooting and flashing is quite easy and straight forward, mainly using apk files instead of doing it from computer with toolkit etc.

Anyway anyone here using the phone naked without casing?

currently using without casing and like it that way, but just scared the phone back easy to get scratch especially with its pop-out camera lens design, unlike other phone with flat back design so suitable to use without casing.

link please?

does the phone feels hot when charging from plug instead of PC USB?

I notice it charge ALOT faster when direct power point charge compared to PC USB port.

When when I say alot, its like 10% to 50% in 45 mins. Then I feel the phone is hot, I know that heat is bad for battery so quite worry. I'm using stock charger that came with the box. Is the stock charger output higher than ordinary samsung/sony etc chargers?

but isn't heat no good for battery?

Say if I don't mind taking long time to recharge so I choose to use lower output chargers(such as samsung's charger), it won't do any harm right? just longer charging times which I prefer over heating up my phone and feeling worried.

do help me test the gps, I can't seems to get gps... It just keep searching for location but will never lock on.

ok I went developer options > engineering mode > location tab > YGPS > GPS Test > then what number should I enter for "Times 0 - 999" and "Interval 0 - 000(s)"?

or should i go "Location Based Service" instead of "YGPS"? and should I enable EPO under "Location Based Service"?

btw I found a help tips, not sure it works gonna try it later: http://www.gizchina.com/2013/07/23/how-to-...ediatek-phones/

Thanks for the help guys!
