so far so good :)
mainly use for surfing and few apps

what bugs you encountered?

The memory leak is 1, also when you use landscape mode, do you see the bottom there is a line which looks like a distorted image lol. It doesn't seem to be a problem except aesthetically, its not nice hah. The 1 sec lag when you do certain thing, not all the time but sometimes it happen. I actually find web browsing is less than ideal, always laggy, but that happens also in Kit Kat, to be it's an on going bug :p

Rumors say 5.1 is the lightest weight stock ROM so even older models would run smoothly. Don't know how true is this.

I posted a pic of someone on 5.1 with N7 2012 and it look smooth as hell. But i'm trying to find more demo in youtube, can't find lol.

*Ok i just searched and more videos are up le, from the comments i read, people who installed it, said 5.1 has a huge difference in performance over 5.0.2.

That's why use your S2 for Radio la, plug in speaker, shiokness.

Go fishing can use since dun need mobile data. My 2 years is up, Note 3 still functioning, looks almost like brand new man lol. It's just getting a bit laggy for my liking so hope lollipop can bring life to it. Also, i hate the camera bringing up so slowly. Remember NDP last year, heard the plane, holding my phone with it on somemore, i click camera, plane gone liao then the app open, wtf man :s22:

No la just taking fishing as an example cos it has to be away in some ulu places which usually has bad radio signal mah, that's when FM Radio will be helpful haha.

True enough. At the same time, I very seldom listen to radio. I read news online + climb songs at pirate ship so yeah, radio not of a big usage to me.

Heading down to IT Fair? :s11:

I've been targeting Anker 3.0 USB hubs for a while but the rate of near 1.41 is turning me off. Girlfriend gave me a budget of $400 for my birthday present which I haven't used yet. She said I could use up till $400 so wondering whether to get the LG R watch or retro gaming system like JXDS7800B + Anker 3.0 7 port hub or a new handphone.

I also limit bg process to only 1 when i'm on 5.0.2, doesn't do **** man. I had to factory reset, only way to solve the super lag issue (mine was lagging already on KK but lollipop made it worse), my lag is so bad until hang one.

I want a smartwatch but until now i wouldn't buy one cos of battery life, i think until 2nd generation of Apple watch come out then things will be exciting for all. I seriously wish Apple would sell well, only then we can see others pull their socks up. Honestly, cos Apple seem to be the only company that can sell ice to eskimos, only when other companies like Samsung take a hit then they will buck up, put all kinds of new and better tech rather than just marginal upgrade. Take a look at S6 :s13:

That aside, i'm torn between Android Wear and Tizen cos while i prefer all things Google, i think AW is very lacking in functionality and to pay above $150 for an AW smartwatch now is quite ridiculous. Only Gear S seem to make the most sense to me.

Not really la, i have an iPod Touch and i can see why people will like them. The build quality is solid and UI is "simple" but it's really for people who don't ask for much. It's not exactly a smart phone IMO cos it's not too smart at all, i like automation in Android but it's at a cost...........resource hungry.

True. Honestly, I like the looks of R watch. Gear S's design like fuk to me. :s13:

Maybe you could look at the 2nd generation of Pine watches. Wondering whether he's making an international model. His 1st generation is fuking huge.
