yesterday still have 3189, i think sold out again for that offer
now price back to normal market rate
maybe you can wait for 12.12

but i think most likely need to wait until next year for price below 3k

really? i should check the site often.

I'm not sure i can wait until next year.

I guess the best TG still the whitestone dome, i considering full body clear coat too, but doubt the quality comparable to whitestone or not, price are equal...

Whitestone = one go damage RM199 no need change

Other brand which doesn't full adhesive might lift up if not careful, either replacement or dirty.

Will it be dual active or dual standby? If both SIM has data plan, how do I default it accordingly?

similar thing happened to my mom before. her note 5 was locked by maxis because the previous user did not pay his bills. sent it to a phone repair shop, they repaired it for only rm150. but that price was for note 5, for note 8 might be a little higher. the repair guy said maxis blocked the imei for that phone so he just changed/replaced a new imei no for the phone, no problem ever since

I always thought IMEI no is unique. Will changing it make the phone illegal?

Yes, IMEI no is indeed unique but how will changing it make the phone illegal? I am also curious about the this and the SKMM ruling. Hopefully some one can enlighten.

LOL, the Incredible Hulk starring Bill Bixby is ancient Bro. I remembered watching it with my dad on Sunday afternoons. Can't believe how time flies. Before you know it Note X will be out already.

Yalo... And the green Hulk was actual Lou ferrigno. That was cool 30 years ago. Memories ya...

Ya.... Hopefully the coming Note X will have IR again. LOL

This is sort of a "hack" of a single SIM unit into a dual, so it cannot be dual active. Dual active needs 2 radios.

Not sure if it is dual standby unless the phone can recognize both SIMs at the same time, otherwise it is a manual switch using the SIMtoolkit.

For the dual SIM models, it defaults to dual standby but I suspect you can turn on dual active although I haven't tested it.

Yes can turn on dual active. Tried before. On call on sim1 and Sim2 still receive incoming call.

That is cool and have yet to try it myself. I wish one day Samsung would make their flagships with dual active sims + micro SD card slot instead of the current hybrid tray. Ohh....and lets not forget the IR blaster for VHS1 and the rest of us who appreciate it.

Thanks for the confirmation. Looks like this makes the Note8 one of the very few (or the only?) dual active phones of the last 24 months.

You could get a dremel tool and make holes in any casing you want. I've been doing that to add lanyard loops to my cases.

And yes, why the heck aren't more casing manufacturers providing a lanyard loop? ! vmad.gif
