Yes, they will replace a new set for you as their parts are not available at the moment so they cannot do repair yet.

Anyone having problem setting contact ringtone?

What problem are you having? Are you trying to set individual contact ringtone? If so, you can choose to edit your desired contact details, somewhere at the bottom you can change the ringtone. Click on the top right ♫ icon if you want to choose from library.

That is because you are scratching something else(shatter-proof sheet) on top of the dragontrail/gorilla glass

copied all the images over from my previous whatsapp when i backed up, to this phone.

when choosing images from gallery to send, wa piang, all the images just explode into the screen without any folders at all. is there a way to work around this? very messy sia

Press "My albums" beside "Pictures" in your Album app. It should show your images in folder view.

Yes, they are clearing stocks for the iphone and Samsung. Ha Ha!

How much you bought the Samsung MicroSD? I would rather go for the SanDisk or Transcend instead of Samsung.

Samsung micro pro $77.60. The transfer rate is 70. SanDisk is 30mb/s.
Many stall sell sandisk micro 64gb at 75bucks. So far best bargain is cheapest at 67.90. the selling price at 75 bucks got include a 4gb thumbdrive. I did ask a vendor if I dun need thumbdrive can discount further. He gave me 73 but will still free me the thumbdrive, didn't take offer. His store is extreme left of b2.

The wifi will only turn on and auto
connect with the known wifi ssid. Those u never include will not. I suppose this is the wifi auto power saving

You can do location based wifi. The moment you reached a known wifi location, it will auto turn on. Once you leave the location, wifi will switch off automatically.

I see. You have to test on the actual speed whether it can achieve that speed it claims and also it depend on the device you are using on the writing speed.

If a class 10 at 30mb/s is more than enough for smartphone then 70mb/s will not be fully utilized.

What method is everyone using to move movie files onto the SD card? Normal drag and drop via windows on PC? I'm doing this, although mine seems to be very inconsistent, with the SD card disconnecting sometimes etc

But we seldom use sms these days.

That is why they decided to cut down on our data usage.

Nope. I think what got scratched is the anti-shatter film on top.
