Lucky I recontract in April so my 12GB stays with me for another 2 years. My minimum usage is at least 3GB so 2GB is not enough for me.

Speaking of tethering, it crashed a few times. Randomly tho.

for mine when i merge the google contact with facebook contact..

it took the facebook contact as the default display..

lemme take a sample screenshot.

those with pictures are from facebook, not photo album..

names covered up

I try to repair my phone using PC companion and now it can download some photo for facebook contact and some did not download photo and some did not download from facebook at all.

Guess it is a bug and hope it will be resolved in future updates.

We reported on the Sony Xperia SL late last week, all evidence points to it being an Xperia S spec refresh, especially seeing what happened last year with the Sony Ericsson Xperia arc S versus the Xperia arc. A reliable tipster got in touch to confirm that this will be the case. The Sony Xperia SL will offer a CPU bump as well as a new colour.

This is exactly what happened when the Xperia arc S launched, it had a 1.4GHz processor and new Pure White and Gloss Black colours. This compared to the older 1GHz Xperia arc that was only available in Midnight Blue and Misty Silver. We don’t know whether the Xperia SL will launch with a higher clocked S3 Snapdragon chipset or whether it will move to the S4 Snapdragon chipset (MSM8960), so time will tell on that one. We have also heard that the Sony Xperia P will get a new colour, although timelines remain a mystery.

Speed bump... hmm... maybe up from dual 1.5Ghz to 1.7Ghz which is the current max for S3 chipset. Quite unlikely they will use S4 but hey, you never know what sony will hit us with. New color...maybe pink??

One thing i really hope, remove that rubber cover for USB!!!

 

[anpanbun]

Has anyone's cover fall off yet?

 

[Dixon.]

Mine is very loose though.

 

[ragnarok95]

The phone is super sexy without a case. But I don't want to scratch it!

I installed a new browser called uc browser... Like the night mode... Haha. U guys can try.. But it doesn't run as well as dolphin... It goes easy on the eyes at night, hav swipe features which is quite convenient.. Wondering if there is any app to turn the phone phone into 'negative' mode... Like the night mode of uc browser..

 

[teh__o]

Try reinstalling? Do you know how to delete the tones saved in this app?

ugh! zedge tones auto change to unknown again!
just now got phone call and i dont know as it wasnt ringing
i just delete from the folder but then you will still see the tone in the list when choosing your default tone

Speaking of tethering, it crashed a few times. Randomly tho.

it happened to me before. just off by itself

i got use zedge tones before ...why ?

btw full again

sorry korkor, bunbun told i missed your post

I on both Wifi and 3G (Starhub 12GB plan) all the time.

So, when i'm at home and office, it will auto use wifi over 3G.
And if i'm out of home or office, my 3G will still work.
Therefore, i don't need to switch between wifi and 3G all the time...me lazy mah!

Sama-sama. I am very lazy too.

Though it is recommended that we off wifi when not using else it'll be constantly scanning the environment for signals, thus using more juice, I still leave it on~

+_+

And it's abit troublesome that the phone will off wifi automatically when you are in tethering mode -___-

Stupid HR/Receptionist don't let me have company's wireless password, else I can ease off on my mobile data usage too. I can hit up to more than 6gb a month if I don't watch myself...

Cos I tend to tether my tablet alot when outside... Wanna surf net and Youtube on the go mah... especially on long journeys. Don't even dare to use tuneinradio too... And also Google map is a good app to navigate me through somewhere I've never done before. Or give road directions to pretty foreign chicks =X

12gb is definitely not enough, despite Singtel's claims. It's just their excuse for trying to charge us more cos with whatsapp/skype/internet calls, they can't earn from extra call/sms charges -_-

2gb is like... Ok... I'm gonna use a smartphone just to read feeds and emails. And occasional tweets and facebookings. That's all.

It'd be as good as waiting to get home to use my home wifi to unlock my phone's potential, just like my tablet.

Yay... -_-
