Seriously this phone should drop price quicker. tongue.gif

Currently using PV808. Other than the camera, it is a little too unproductive. Probably waiting for another half year for the price to drop to around RM1000-1100 then will grab this.

Tried to survive with Xperia Z camera but the difference is massive. sweat.gif Let's just say im an amateur in photography but still indoor pictures taken by the Sony phone is either too saturated or seriously lacks in details.

Hey, just grabbed myself a second hand unit here, coming from a pv808 user. Amazing camera. rclxms.gif

What type of screen protector u guys are using? One that fits nicely with the curved screen? Im thinking of grabbing a glass screen protector but feedback doesn't seems nice.

I bought a nillkin matte casing, it comes with a clear screen protector. Not 100% covers the entire black surface, but it does cover ever part, minus the front light sensor and front camera.

Hey, saw it from tskhor in garage sales and it also comes with the sp for the camera lenses right? So the top and bottom do not pops out? Thanks!

ZzzAny owners of these two covers can provide some feedbacks? I prefer the poetic cover but as people in China called it, the Oreo isn't protected. The fake leather cover on the other hand is bulky and look a tad too complicated for me.

Poetic cover is price at 12usd excluding shipping
Leather cover at 69RMB including shipping

Both are quite pricey. sweat.gif

Guys, I'm currently on Windows phone 8.1. Been using the phone for around one week now. All in all. It freezes 4 times in standby and on two occasions, phone completely abit off itself. (Both times overnight). In all situations a soft reset is required. Anyone else facing similar problems as me?

I'm wondering whether it is a bug or hardware issues. Btw, is my warranty now void? I bought a second hand unit and the seller didn't notify me that the phone is already on 8.1.

It was pretty obvious because the default focus wasn't supposed to be at macro while mine was at macro. And the video are troubling to focus so much it went on macro as well. Plus if I set on manual focus I can't even set to infinity still shows macro focus. So I'd say it's pretty obvious (considering that I took a lot of photos on my L1020 so I know something was wrong and it definitely is!)

The thing is it is my own fault I didn't take care of my L1020 very well too many drop, I take it to jog, I throw my L1020 at soft surface quite a lot (kinda like my hobby yeah I know it's weird). One particular moment that I kinda have forgotten that L1020 have a fragile hardware inside mostly on camera so I took responsibility for this occurrence and it costs RM527  icon_rolleyes.gif

So I'm not the only one here. Like to see my phone bounce on the bed. == guess I have to stop doing that.

Btw, latest facebook update improved alot. Finally can upload photos.

Should be 830 now. The camera module of leaked 830 pictures look exactly the same like the camera lens on the picture.

I can't seem to get it running on Nokia Camera Beta. How did you enable it? I'm running Cyan + 8.1 Update 1 DP.

Btw, anybody got the new .200 DP firmware update on their 1020? Mine still shows the .008 update as the current version.

I got the .200 update yesterday. No significant changes. Only the battery dropped from 100% to 35% after installing the update. rclxub.gif

I'm still on the old version, I guess the previous owner did not upgrade. Thinking about playing around a month or so, before upgrading to cyan.

The reason I got it was need an upgrade from my N8, most of the apps like waze, etc are not supported anymore sad.gif
Need a phone with good camera and not too big like 5in since I use pouch to keep my phone. Hence N1020 met my requirement  rclxms.gif

Gonna try to transfer my sms and contacts via "Transfer my data" tool; tonite. Hope it goes well.

Wondering if I could transfer my Waze favorites?
Anyone tried transferring whatsapp data from Symbian?

Don't think you can transfer whatsapp data to another phone. Even on a similar platform.

For those who are interested to transfer Whatsapp data
How to save and restore chat history backups
Saving your messages

If you have an S60 phone, your WhatsApp conversations are saved automatically every day at 4am (your local time). Run a manual back up to make sure all conversations are saved:

    Open WhatsApp and go to Options > Settings > Chat History > Backup chat history.
    Tap Yes to back up chat history.

Restoring your messages

If you are deleting and reinstalling WhatsApp, you will be prompted with a message to import your backup after you first open your new copy of WhatsApp. Tap Restore and your chat history should load.

If you need to transfer your chats from one S60 phone to another S60 phone, transfer your SD card to your new phone before installing WhatsApp on it. If you do not have an SD card, you will need to copy the entire ‘wa’ folder from your old phone into your new phone’s memory. Install WhatsApp and click on Restore when you see it, and your chat history should begin loading.
Here is some technical information about your backup

    Backup files are saved in a folder called ‘wa’ and are called MsgStore.bak.
    Backup files are saved to both your phone’s internal memory and SD card, but only given that there’s enough space.
    Backup files are only valid for 7 days after last saved. Make sure you import your chat history before it expires!
    Backup files are phone number sensitive; they will only work with the same phone number.
    Backup files are saved in a format to be opened with WhatsApp. If you want to read your conversations on your computer you can send them as .txt file from WhatsApp to your email.

Last I checked, it was RM550 per screen change with digitiser.  That motivated me to get these glass screens for DIY attempts.

(I lost my phone before I managed to DIY, thats why I sell them right now.)

Still prefer the camera design of 808 pv over the 1020 and and this leaked 1030. This one is going to be a scratch magnet.

Dropped my phone from shoulder height yesterday. And starting to hear some unusual noice from the camera. Anyone can hear quirky sound when the shutter button is pressed and when the picture is finish processing? Its like the lens is moving back and forth. I'm not sure there's sound from this movement b4 the drop.

And the sound of a laptop cooler fans spinning when camera app is at launch. This one needs to stick the phone to the ears though.

Hope I'm just being paranoid. sad.gif

Oops
When the camera starts, obviously one can hear the lens move to position it self. But should not during the saving of he file.

cry.gif If you move the camera right beside your ears when the camera is in its launching state, do you hear sound like your laptop fans functioning? No effect to the image quality though.
