@Faisal Adi : bro, masuk ke settings --> wireless & networks --> mobile networks --> matikan centangan data, ini mematikan koneksi internet menggunakan jaringan telepon (GPRS, EDGE, 3G / HDSPA)

Salam Sama Agan- Agan disini, numpang ngasih komentar aja yak...
akhirnya setelah menunggu sekian lama, ane bisa beli (walaupun nyicil) smartphone Android, buat nemenin si Nina ane...
walaupun inceran awalnya Anzu, tapi akhirnya tergoda neng Shakira,
akibat promo di pameran ICC 2011 tanggal 10 Juni kemaren dengan kartu kredit B** (lumayan, cicilan 12x, 0%, per bulan 88rebu)
dapet warna hitam glossy (emang pengennya ane, biar beda dikit ama yg laen, hehe)
kesan pertama :
-smartphone murah meriah, tapi kualitas oke punya(!) (Android gitu loh...)
-bisa dioprek macem2 lewat Android market
-UI bawaannya ane demen banget (soalnya ane suka warna biru)
-layarnya jernih banget, dibandingin sama Galaxy Mini temen ane mah beda, kerapatan pixel-nya juga menang si Shakira
tapi kalah di Multi-Touch sama lebar layar
-dibandingan Gemini bini ane mah jauhhh..... (sorry, sudah ber-ikrar gak bakalan beli BlackBerry.... kecuali dikasih ;p )
makanya, katanya klo ane udah jadi beli si Anzu, si Shakira buat dia aja... hehehe
kekurangannya :
-potonya mesti jangan gerak2, biar gak nge-blur hasilnya, maklum gak ada auto focus
-untuk music playernya, bagaimanapun masih menang si Nina (walau minus jack 3.5mm)
-baterai, 1/2 hari tinggal 20 persenan (boros euy...) makanya charger always di tas..
-blom ada yang jual silicon case-nya(!) udah muter2 ITC Kuningan/Mall Ambassador ampe bego tapi gak ada...
isinya silikon Blackberry mulu...(!) ada diskriminasi nih kayaknya..
Pokoknya hidup SonyEricsson + Android...!!
NB: gw baca di OkeZone.com, rumornya Google mau buat aplikasi tandingan BBM khusus buat smartphone Android,
semoga cepet terealisasi dan bukan rumor deh...

Agan-agan....
Saya mau tanya soal PC companion. Saya install saa saya punya Vivaz pro, dan works fine...
Tetati waktu keluarga ada yg baru pake X8, saya coba tancep di komputer. PC Companion detect, menyala, tapi X8 ga lama shut down, bolak-balik gitu tuh...
Dan setelah itu saya baru sadar kalo PC companionnya sekarang blank menu icon-nya. Sudah uninstall cara biasa sampai install ulang dan uninstall lagi dengan software uninstall, tetep blank sesudah install ulang.
Saya coba di registry win XP ori saya search PC companion, SE X8, nekat di delete semua abis uninstall, tapi abis install tetap blank.
Ada yg bisa bantu? Rencana kan pengn Arc, tapi kalo PC Companion memble ga seru.

Sistem Android emang agak memberatkan kinerja batere, karena karakteristiknya yang terkoneksi hampir terus menerus ke internet.
Untuk menghemat batere, coba :
- Set brightness ke level yang lebih rendah
- Set rentang mati layar jadi lebih kecil (per 30 detik misalnya)
- Gunakan widget seperlunya (terutama yang berkaitan dengan update data melalui internet)
- Matikan auto sync
