For those who wants to use Idea 3g offer, details are quite different for prepaid and postpaid.

I didn't got additional 1 GB data, now I m in second month and again received only 1 GB data SMS.

For prepaid details are shown here

http://www.idea3g.co.in/samsung_offer_prepaid.html

For Postpaid

http://www.idea3g.co.in/samsung_offer_postpaid.html

But in the end 3 GB of 3G data in 497/- is not that bad what I feel!!
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
@ kachru

Had a clarification with idea customer care, 2gb is only for those who activate the idea sin for the 1st time. The 497 recharge should be made as the first recharge to avail this offer

this picture was taken from my S2 camera from the world's tallest building. great quality. i have taken over 150 images with my S2 and plenty with my stand alone camera.
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
They didn't mentioned this on their Website :eek:

But its OK, 497/-= 3GB 3G data for three months for existing prepaid customer.

After that will use 2G plan. The thing is I got very good speed of 2G with Idea in my state. I used Airtel, Aircel, Vodafone but Idea gives constant good speed.

You Also taste 2G speed with Speedtest btwn Idea and Airtel

Just now contacted Reliance for a BB connection and he said he will come in 30 mins.Will select 12Mbps plans
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
BTW i want to remind people that airtel 3g have better plan

Buy a airtel 3g sim,recharge with Rs.300 and get 3 gb for a month

Do this again and again by buying new sim cards:D
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
id love to carry over the remaining GB to next month :D
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
The reasons i don't want to buy that is

Reliance:D

No wired broadband

Connection problems in my area
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Just now that person came and took money and left...When I asked I need 12 Mbps plan he was like SIR THAT IS A LOT SPEED.Do you really need it? and said to me take a 800Kbps plan It also gives sooo much speed..I was like WTF where is 12Mbps and 800Kbps...

[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
LOL you're right...He asked me 2-3 times why you need that much speed
[Galaxy S II General] Virtualsk:
@bala, You mean, this boy will watch and download lot of p**n ... :D
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
LOL...I want High Speed net for Movies,Roms,Games (Online Multi-Player to kill time) etc (You can add any thing in etc) :p
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
@Ravi- So you took the Freedom 999 plan right? It says 'unlimited' bundle data usage, but 25 GB 'Circuit Breaker Trigger', now what the hell is that?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Ya Freedom 999 plan....I know it will become 1 Mbps after 25GB..What is wrong in that?..Almost every ISP is having a Circuit Breaker Trigger (BSNL too)They saying unlimited but will have Circuit Breaker...In reliance there are two 999 plans 1 is 12 MBPS with Circuit Breaker after 25GB and another is 1 Mbps Day and 1.5 Mbps night unlimited

Tata Photon+ have 2 Circuit Breaker 1 is after the limi you reach (mine 5 GB) and it will give 144Kbps and after some GB like 10 or 7 it will become 32Kbps

@ bala

see the image and Tint I told this morning
[Galaxy S II General] Virtualsk:
Let me know about speed of it after using it for a while ... I might want to try this out. 12Mbps sounds good if it is actually giving that speed .
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Sure....1st thing after getting connected is Speedtest........ Reliance Box is next to my apartment only
[Galaxy S II General] Virtualsk:
Damn ! Thats bad. Good that you will get it replaced for free. :D

Nothing wrong man, just needed to know!

[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
it seems to be a stuck pixel issue... did you tried jscreen fixer or any other app to fix it???
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Auto sync will drain your battery, no matter which app you are using

Paid Launcher pro and its widget are good option.

for free, try friencaster, it is more popular than official one

will I try now?? the phone is with me..
[Galaxy S II General] iekansh:
Guys please? My question too!
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Avast,AVG both are Best....I'm using Avast but I heard Avast makes internet speed slow...So try both and select one....I have tried both so can't say which is best...before I was using AVG and recently formatted laptop and net speed is slow so installed Avast Setup which was in pen drive
[Galaxy S II General] sendhiloo7:
If you go with free antivirus avira the best.

Paid version go with AVG total security
[Galaxy S II General] Raven'sSight:
Bit Defender total security is the best protection suite IMO.

@Ravi is the Reliance BB plan a wireless one? or is it with cable?
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Yes

Like whole phone is replaced except the back cover(the half part of phone which is only like plastic cover and nothing else) and a small chip(only 3 inches long and 1 inch broad) will be old and the rest will be replaced(full phone from the silver strip which have all the internal stuff attached to it)
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Cable.....I have a wifi router so for me it will be a wireless
[Galaxy S II General] Raven'sSight:
@Ravi great :D cable internet means stable speeds. 12 mbps will be sweet :D

i got the airtel one now..1.7k for 4 mbps upto 75 GB.just like yours..cable + wifi router.. Think i will shift.. Do review the connection with speedtest.net screen shots :D

btw, anyone looking for a class10 32 gig.

This is a decent option

[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
So its good for me in other manners like my phone would be 75% new after replacement
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Sure...1st thing I will do is speedtest before they leave..He said mostly they will give connection tomorrow and box is near my home only so It will take less than a hour to give connection...1st thought to go for BSNL BB 750UN than saw Airtel 4Mbps 1k plan thought to go for Airtel than saw Reliance and selected it...

I have a plus point here If wifi router worked like I want than My mobile will Welcome back CM9...I was having only 2 problems with it Ad-hoc and MTP...1 will be solved and for MTP I will try a app like airdroid or what ever it is
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:

One important point I wanna ask You that, what will happen with my phone's storage?

Will it be replaced or not? if so I need to format the storage coz there is bunch of Rom's backup...

[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
So what you think, this device is still missing something?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
NFC (Those stupids said there is NFC and than released it without NFC).

Better battery

Overheating

Better Camera (Pink spot in pics)

Ad-Hoc (I know it OS feature not mobile problem but still I miss it)

Reverse tethering

Original ICS (Samsung messed it so added it)

Volume can be much better..When a 12k/14k Nokia mobile released in 2009 can give a AWESOME sound why can't a 30k one?

I can adjust with all this but NFC is what I wanted most in mobile with other features

Even a Less than 27k mobile from Nokia got NFC and this stupids didn't release it...If I'm not wrong Lumia 800,Motorola razr xt910 released with NFC in india
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
That's true, very depth review. You covered all the missing points

Btwn have seen a trailer of mass effect 3 on GSMArena. Looks amazing!!

http://blog.gsmarena.com/mass-effect-3-take-earth-back-extended-trailer-is-out/
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
I find it perfect for me

Now lets see ur post:D

NFC is useless in india as their is no special NFC credit card machines

and NFC is for credit cards only(and u can use bump for file transfer)

Undervolt,set cpu to 1000Mhz or 800 Mhz,buy extended battery

Thats a issue but exists in every smartphone(by that i mean high end phones)

Never had it after my display change:D

No comment on this as i don't use this

Their is an app and PC program for this(it was on portal some days back)

Buy a NEXUS phone,no manufacturer in the world will release it without their bloatware and ui

Volume is good for me,no *Smartphone*(nokia isn't one:D) have much higher volume

As i said NFC is of no use in india and much more dangerous if it comes

My dad once lost his credit card and lost 30k

---------- Post added at 09:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:02 PM ----------

No it won't be wiped
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
NFC is not just for making payments..It is better than bluetooth to transfer files

When you already spent 30k/32k why need to spend 2k more? Everyone can't root....Maybe around 1000 ppl brought GSII in india and in that how many know rooting,About XDA? maybe 50 or 100...I said overall

Ya but in GSII more because it is thin...Remember ithehappy's problem? He was playing Angrybirds game and it gave a problem and he need to take it to Service center

Lucky you got it fixed but everyone can't take it to Service center to fix it because many will think they will charge and don't have time

Well ya they can but still they can give that option

See Motorola and LG ICS pics they look almost like ICS but in Samsung it look like GB rom

Ya NFC might be dangerous if that person know how to use it and knows the pin..It is easy to use a Credit card because there will be no photo on card and they can know the owner name and write it as Sign in bill....but in NFC you need to enter pin and NFC has others features too

-why tweaks needed? Company has to deliver with what they selling

-My Htc phone has built in feature "Internet pass Through"

-Is the sound is as good as your previous Experia
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Wow that game is really Awesome...Once exams are over next month I will get it

@sahibunlimited I'm sure there will be NFC in many stores in almost all Metro cities in 1-2 years...I heard SBI started NFC tests in few cities few months back.....Maybe volume is good for you but not for me and most of my friends and family people said my it is giving so low volume when your old mobile (Nokia N900,Nokia 5800 XpressMusic) was giving a good volume....If there is some other sounds in room like TV,Other people talking Many/I can't enjoy the sound and when it comes to videos it is more low

OT: Got call from Reliance to confirm that I have ordered BB...Even that person asked why I need that much speed....WHY THE HELL ALL MOST ALL THINK I'M STILL KID WHEN I'M A MAJOR NOW
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
@ ravi

man you can use wifi direct for large file transfers... no need for nfc for that purpose

btw im perfectly satisfied with s2
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Ya but they should give what they said.I'm sure in next 2-3 years most of the smartphone will have NFC feature and that time I will miss it...I will not change mobile till 3-4 years

I'm also perfectly satisfied but still if it had all what I said in the old post than it will be more Powerful than now

a new smartphone of today will be obsolete in 2years. we dont even know what exciting features are under development and testing for the new upcoming smartphones. for example the water proof coating which we hear right now would have been no where a year back.. in 2 years our s2 will become n73 of the past :D

[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
-i said the answer as from a xda user point of view

-normal user use phone for calling,texting or some use whatsapp and some more apps and that will give 25-30 hours of battery(no phone with that much big screen and processor can give that)

-nope xperia phone had even worser volume and quality

-and thats htc specfic app so u souldn't have bought s2 as u mist see some websites for detailed specs and features before u buy any phone and then search about the hardware it have(cpu,gpu) then buy it

Now thats ur problem that u will have it for 3-4 years:eek: and they never said its having nfc(i know u saw it at the site u bought this phone but its ur bad then,as i said research before u buy)

And u must have seen the features of the phone and had gone for nokia(or nexus s had that)

And nfc is never better than wifi transfer and its use is not pratical as a credit card...
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Guys you talk too much! :P

I would like to know if over volting will give increased data write and transfer speed like in your shot and also in Bala's which he had posted in a separate thread a month ago?

So its a stuck pixel. But what I can't understand is that why dint the stuck pixel be displayed in screen test? Did you try the test all the colour?

@Raviteja, you won't believe this. I setup ad hoc network in my laptop evetytime I go to office. My friend had an Nokia N8 and I asked him to see if he can detect the wifi. I was sure it won't. But man it did get detected and he could connect it with breeze. Later I asked another friend of mine who had old Samsung Monte with Bada OS and it too could connect the same. I was like damn the Galaxy S2. Had to do modifications and **** for it to work.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I have planned for 3-4 years but sure I will get new mobile before that......Did you saw Samsung India SGII launch? If you did than I can't say any more.......If not they only said NFC and even in the Specifications list they gave that day have NFC in it....Search in this thread starting pages there is a pic of the list.....

over volting will not increase transfer speed :)

man, i have to ask you this, whenever you come to say test its been spelled as taste ;) :D
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Thats why i said research

I never see indian sites because i know that half of the things are written wrong and they dont even know what they are talking about

Always check sites like gsmarena,phonearena,technobuffalo

And then see the specs like if it says "mali 400 gpu" then search about it and find which one is best...

After all ur search come to the conclusion that which one is the best

Ohh Myy God! big mistake btwn taste and test
[Galaxy S II General] sasha007:
I've a weird problem with my galaxy S2 .

Originally it had KF3 FW & rooted, and sometime back , a problem started when i plugged in my phone via USB cable to my System , the touch screen becomes weird . It does not respond to touches as it normally should and becomes all flaky . I have to disconnect the usb cable every time to work on the phone . I tried to charge it via wall charger and all was well with the touch response being normal .

So this is a peculiar problem when usb cable is plugged in .

Yesterday , i did a factory reset and flashed my phone with KL1 via ODIN .

But still when i plug in to the system , touch screen becomes weird . Sometimes responds to touch , sometimes doesn't .

Is it a problem with the hardware then .? If yes , should i take it to a service center ( still have 4 months warranty left ) ? My binary counter is 1 BTW .

FYI : I've an SGP ultra crystal screen protector installed .

Plz advice .
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
oh that's a bummer :-( actually its an android limitation as my friends LG optimus black could not detect ad hoc

Hmmm.. That's sad mate. But you will be gettin half new mobile!!

Then why I don't get such low transfer speed :(

Lol. I got to tell. I thought of telling too about the taste I mean test but kept quite :p
[Galaxy S II General] digi_fort:
Sorry was away for the day :D

The heat up and the battery drain is due to the bug in the firmware KF3 many new firmwares are available and are simple to implement. You can use odin to update your firmware but i would recommend since your phone is new go to the service center to get the issue resolved. As you are covered under warranty and have just done an official update. If you still want to go ahead click on the link below and update the firmware via the given instructions.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17481911&postcount=1139

2.3.4 has gtalk with video/voice chat(although not all of the releases have this feature for some reason. eg the I9100XXKH3)

Absolutely because KG1/2 are not official releases they are releases for Samsung devs just leaked out ROMS.

there is a bug in 2.3.3 which is the "Android OS" bug. this causes the phone to heat up and uses most of the juice. something, which has been taken care of in the 2.3.4 release.

Yup very true. It is also logical that the product is made better with every further on release.

KH3 and KF3, well, i have not used em. but i personally find the KG1 a pretty damn good rom(better than the KG2)

well as my friend recommends use the above mentioned KG1/KG2 if you want video chat via GTalk. Performance wise i find KH3 much better than my previous 2 ROMS KF3/KG5.

Yes you can update your phone Firmware with ease. See post above. But if there is a misconception here lemme just clear it you don or did'nt need to root you phone to update to 2.3.4. You can get official roms and the procedure to update via the link below.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17481911&postcount=1139

what you can do if you don wanna do that now is flash a custom ROM. Cyanogen Rom is the best i've heard there is

http://www.cyanogenmod.com/
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
cyanogenmod is the best rom available for any android phone. it is fast and it is highly... HIGHLY customize able. i have used it with my I-9000 and it works like a charm.

since my requirements were speed and battery life, both of them are taken care of by the 1.2GHz dual core processor and the 1GB ram of the I-9100. hence, so far i have not bothered to get into CM. but then again, you want a custom rom, look no further, CM is the answer.

wanna stay as stock as possible with not many buggy issues? switch to 2.3.4 EU version.
