QUOTE(surefire v LED @ Mar 13 2015, 06:03 PM) no problem - just flash it via Odin - once finish - perform factory reset - done. thanks will do   what do you think of the update so far Sir? also im still debating whether to use a tempered glass on my note 4. It seem like due to the curved edged screen on the note 4, its hard to find one that fits nicely without halo effect and lifting over time. Do you use any? |

QUOTE(surefire v LED @ Mar 13 2015, 06:40 PM) I'm thinking to peel off my glass screen protector - so ugly that halo effect but then again for safety reason i delay it. True. I bought the NuGlas glass when buying the Note 4 along with it at Lazada and regretted it. The cutout does not even cover the screen edges with horrible cut out on top. Already imagined how hideous it would look like if applied. L5 is ok though a bit buggy here and there - just waiting for an updates if any. At Amazon saw some really nice glass with many positive reviews like the iCarez but sadly they dont ship to Malaysia.  I guess il just leave it be for now and let the Led flip case do its job of protection until something come along. |

I must say that Samsung is still no match for Sony Xperia sound reproduction. I'm using both z2 and note 4 and when comparing sound quality in pairing with my Bluetooth speaker, I had to turn the volume to max on note 4 to get at least 50% volume out of my bt speaker without turnin up the volume on the bt speaker. With z2 there's no way I could maximize its volume cause it's way too loud and yet my bt speaker remain the same volume I had to turn it down to get equal sound. It's not just louder but clearer too.I have a Harman kardon esquire bt speaker and this beast is loud.way louder than bose Jabra etc in same portable size and my z2 is the best pair with it. I assume note 4 has no aptx in Bluetooth sound? Not sure but on top of everything else I love my note 4 😊

yeah but for high end device and such price, they should nail the basic thing like sound reproduction quality.
Anyway does anyone know the easiest way to register e warranty if purhase note 4 online? i have the receipt but not sure if the retailer got register warranty for me or not. Dont know how to check also. |

QUOTE(Leo the Lion @ Mar 14 2015, 11:51 AM) Just flashed 5.0.1 last night... my comments were: i would advise you stick with kitkat until they release a stable update for the lolipop.1. Hot. The phone is hot than 4.4.4 kitkat version 2. Animation transition kinda slow. :\ Oh, the phone is slow. Comparing to 4.4.4...5.0.1 multiwindow is soo damn slow. 3. Battery drain pretty quick 4. The popup notification kinda annoys me while playing COC. It pops up pretty big which interfering my gameplay I love the UI, but agree 5.0.1 is buggy actually kitkat is still pretty good but its just that everyone always has the tendency of getting newest thing and sometimes we forget that its stability that matters more than fancy features. il stick with kitkat for now. |

Even the fastest phone in the world would suffer from instability/lagginess if one does not know how to use wisely.. It's still a subjective matter. I'm still learning more about my note 4. Treat your gadgets as your own babies and you could probably prolong their lives..

check out this tempered glass that has matching coloured sides to fully cover note 4. Anyone tried it before?
http://www.lelong.com.my/samsung-galaxy-no...7-01-Sale-I.htm looks good in pics. Seller said it has curved edges but not very confident with the brand lol |

QUOTE(old newspaper @ Mar 16 2015, 08:40 PM) this is to show how flexible the iCarez tempered glass is !!   this is 0.15mm thickness and here come the results with iCarez tempered glass applied !   with naked eye, i can't barely notice this has been applied with tempered glass at all !!!   here's some tips when buying iCarez's tempered glass... for those having the white unit, you could purchase either 0.15mm or 0.28mm iCarez tempered glass. for those having the black unit, REMEMBER to purchase only the 0.15mm iCarez's tempered glass. as i have mentioned earlier in the review, the black unit seem to have more curvy edge thus the thinner the tempered glass is the better it will stick to the curved glass with 0% halo effect. amazon seem having sales on this iCarez now, but for those want to avoid the hassle go thru third party shipping channel ( amazon doesn't ship outside of US for this item ) i found out that this nice gentlemen selling here locally. lyn member, allinbox2u and this is his website: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « for those of you still searching high and low for 100% no halo effect, waste no more  and your precious time. pay a premium price once and for all and you'll be a happy note 4 user like me! ( this is not a paid review ) i never expect any local seller would bring the icarez in however though im using the bronze gold note 4.Which would you recommend? would the 0.15mm be good enough? |

QUOTE(old newspaper @ Mar 16 2015, 10:41 PM) you will be surprise how easy it was to apply this tempered glass.... no worry, if there's a dirt stuck underneath after applying it, you can always take it out and use the supplier sticker to stick the dirt out... thanks yeah i figured the thinner is better anyway just contacted seller earlier and its out of stock now and new stock is around 7-9days ahh im just gonna wait lol 0.15mm would always the be best bet  0.15mm is so seriously thin until you won't notice it even after applying it ! |

i am really in love with my bronze gold note 4. Not sure why majority still go for either black and white color. I agree they are always the sleek classic colors but when i saw the bronze gold edition, i just had to get it. Its not like the shiny gold on iphone which isnt my taste. This bronze gold has a retro old school feel to it and i love it. Its almost like a beige color however it wouldnt be that attractive if they kept the bezels black with coloured back.Samsung nailed with this!

in terms of 4g coverage and connection, maxis is still unbeatable.But monthly bill is still steeper than other carriers. Using maxis postpaid on my z2(primary phone) and umobile on note 4 since umobile has the cheapest plan. Rarely see 4g pops up,at least not in my area
 but lowest plan is rm28 monthly, ok la. still consider switching to Yes 4G. My friend said very fast and reliable. |

QUOTE(mckevin @ Mar 21 2015, 12:23 AM) Nice slim case.. Love it Clear case are indeed gorgeous since it doesn't take away your phone natural beauty but i avoid getting them as they stain easily and gets yellowish after awhile for TPU material.While hard case,it is more prone of scratches on back. Sry for the shaky pic.. |

QUOTE(mckevin @ Mar 21 2015, 12:30 AM) spigen is good but as always even their slimmest case gives extra a few mm bulk.. yeah i think they aim for protection more. The case that i regretted getting so far for my note 4 is the samsung LED Flip case. While it's really nice and cool, i just find myself not getting used to flip case as always.. Don't quite like how i have to fold the case to answer a call  Now its sitting in the box it wasn't even cheap either sigh..lol |
