QUOTE(Bernard Yeo @ Feb 28 2014, 08:51 PM) I've not heard about powerbanks killing batteries faster. The salesman who sold me my Z1 at Pyramid told me removable batteries tend to swell after time. The built in ones are the best. I don't know if he told me that to convince me to buy the phone, but I'm inclined to believe him. My 4 year old iPhone is still on its first battery and it still lasts. My old Nokia batteries all swell after a while, even to the point of breaking the catch on the cover. Ori battery is the best no doubt, my 4 year-old SE vivaz's battery still work very well like new.

It depends how frequent you charges, my friend HTC Desire HD battery swell due to frequent plug-in/charging regardless of battery still above 20%.

It was said it's better to flash back to 4.2 of the same country and then only flash other country's 4.3 fw. This is what I read in xda la. But then nothing wrong with hk fw. I myself using hk fw for quite some time until I changed to the rooted fw

I've had a set of Z1 where other people tell me that they can't hear me, my voice somewhat muffled. Is it my speaker / mike? I'm pretty sure it's not their phone problem because they've tried with other people and it's clear. It's only my side phone that has the problem.  Anyone can help me with this? Pls and thank you.
