Angry Birds is definitely not to be missed, also install Call Meter 3G app which will keep track of your incoming & outgoing calls & sms and also your Data (3g/2g).
      Sure buddy, coming up next!
      Btw, I'm using 2G data pack on Airtel.

        I got it for 20.6K including a 16 GB Micro SDHC memory card though it is Class 2.
        Though I was initially a bit apprehensive about LG, I'm loving it&I'm glad I chose Android!
        All going good as of now, will keep posting if&when something comes up.
        I knew you will choose the OPblack though i favoured the Nexus but wanted it to be purely your decision.

        The only thing i like much about the OPB is the Nova screen. Can you compare it to the SGS2 screen of your friends mobile ? True colour saturation of the SGS2 screen has to be seen in eyes. It will not show in photos or videos.

        Hope you are having lag free user experience in the new mobile. congrats.

          Thanks buddy. SGS2 is King. Period. The Nova display is really bright, but I'm using it at lowest intensity for obvious battery saving reasons.
          Faced one or two lags till now, but didn't have to restart the phone-it sent a process not responding message within a minute or two.
          I donno after restarting the phone once, the default Access Point got set as Airtel Live&I lost 100 bucks from main balance inspite of having a 2GB data pack!
          I'm looking for a way to delete that Access Point, but both are default.
          Also, I found an App to make folders inside Gallery called Ctrl Folder, but it allows a maximum of 5 folders.
          Videos are fun&music quality is also very good.

            I get 3mbps as download speed & 1.5~1.6mbps upload speed with 2G plan on Airtel postpaid... YouTube HQ videos play as if playing from gallery.

              Sensation is very good phone, user-interface & SENSE 3.0 is great compared to Samsung TOUCHWIZ 4.0 ... But SGS2 is Undisputed @ the moment.

                Yup, it's the undisputed Android phone at the moment. And its the fastest Samsung phone to sell 3 million units.

                But in terms of user-interface, the HTC Sensation is pure brilliance. I really envy that GUI. I want it on my SGS1.

                  Call the airtel customer care and ask for a refund. It has happened to me too.

                  Also try perfect app locker. Might be useful.

                  Are you sure? Because i have used both Airtel 2G,3G and Vodafone 2G,3G in the SSG2 and the speeds you are talking about comes only in the 3G or H+ connectivity.

                  NOTE: I havent used prepaids for the last 5 years

                    OK.. some news for you.. The GB update is out already... My friend updated his LGOB to GB yesterday.
                    Advice is a form of nostalgia.
                    Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

                      I did that-they said its my fault coz I set the Access Point to Airtel Live instead of Mobile Office!
                      I am going to deactivate Airtel Live services so that only one Access Point remains.

                        Doesnt the SGS2 feel plasticky ?? Like those cheap toys that the balloon-walas sell ?? It does to me.

                        Maybe its because i've been using the Desire HD for the last 6 months, but still...

                          Thats pure BS.These are the problems which come up if you are in prepaid. Ha,they have reversed for me many times.

                          The plastic toy feels pretty solid and doesnt creak when held tightly even in the hands of a person who used to bench press 100 Kgs.

                          Instead of relying on the online reviews from sites, i would advise you to walk over to some store where they have live display and try your might on it.

                          Ps: Of course, i can break the SGS2, same with many phones out there in the market. When i am in such mood, i look out for dumbbells and not for my SGS2

                                Definitely a 3G connection. Considering 2.5G (GPRS) is 56-115kbps, and 2.75G (EDGE) is a maximum of 236.8kbps.
