Is the quick charger for Xperia S standard in the box, ie. whether you buy it from telco or shops, it will be a quick charger?

だろう?

It's just sooooo matching with the white set. And because of this, I abandoned my Momotaros' ringtone of 4 years to Sieg's (well, Sieg is a white colored Imajin and his summoning tone fits the theme too)

The QWERTY keyboard you'll just have to type out its Romanji pronunciation and there will be lists of choices of words in hiragana, katakana and kanji characters for you.

Alternatively, you can change the keyboard to the numberpad version, which is a standard for normal Japanese cellphones. Added in Nozomi is the ability to write the words on the screen.

The keyboard, of course, is preloaded! This is exactly why I support SONY eversince I found out this function on Rachael. With a Japanese keyboard, you can download and install japanese emoticon (dubbed as kaomoji) templates and libraries like this --> (^3^)/ rather than the usual smileys we use.

There are a couple of skins available in the phone itself for you to personalize (like I am using the Sakura skin for my Japanese keyboard).

There are a few variety of skins to select from the market too, but it doesn't support our country. I am guessing it is only exclusively for Japanese users.

Oh by the way, last night when I was using the Android Market for the first time, it disappeared after that, icon and all, and evolved into this thing called Google Play Store

0.o

Thanks for the detailed info. Can't wait to get mine now. The people at singtel approved my request to re-contract early! praying hard the person handling my trade in is a technical noob or wont bother to check my rom. lazy to unroot.

yeah like someone said, android market has changed into google play. the icon on chrome looks nice so i hope it looks as good as the app icon lol.

wondering if the free gifts are worth the trouble to go down to suntec and queue..

Google Play is a new platform where Google finally combines all Android apps, music, books etc into one portal. Just released yesterday. Nothing much changed yet so SG still only have access to apps. Can google to check out.

Thanks for the info~!! =D

purchase my black xs online.

delivery this sat morning.

 

[centauri61]

yes, all file extensions can be copied over, it's similar to drag and drop like mass storage. I don't have files larger than 4gb, so can't answer u on thar.

thanks! good enough for now!

at least i know the mtp is not as poorly implemented as iphone

@Adix_82

Pls update in this thread if u have any original accessories available for sale.

I am looking for another Original Quick Charger by Sony & a Slim back case.

thanks !

 

[globalzorian]

So far so good... LiveDock + wireless KB (cum) track-pad is a good combo! I can use and control the phone totally from the KB alone.

Other than that, I haven't tried out my XS much, leaving it charged the whole night.

 

[bigbadber]

im so envioussssss!!

my Arc is only like.... 6 months old?

sob sob. not financially viable for me to get rid of it and buy the S now.

today i went to IT show, wah lan i saw the starhub queue......

first u hv a long queue outside just to register and get ur queue number right? then later go into the other room to wait again for ur number to be flashed? i told my fren forget it, lets go, cos i wanted him to get the new phone.

then i went upstairs to the 6 range booth and tried the phone abit.

i noticed that the rear of the phone is rubberized?

i've got a qn for u guys,

rubber, like many other pdts, mouse with rubber grip, or keyboard with a rubber strip at the bottom.....

will absorb our hands oily and perspiration one right? then after awhile, u wont get the nice clean rubbery feel anymore? no?

i like the rubber at the rear, cos it can mean that i can do w/o a casing. i use casing for phones, those with a rough surface, so u get a good grip and wont drop the phone, instead of those flat surface casings which might slip off ur palm, or if u dont put a casing, ur phone might get greasy and slip and drop too....

so with this rubber grip at the back, dont need to put casing liao, can flash ur pretty phone. but im worried that the rubber part might absorb oil?
