[iNew V3] 900/2100 Review and first thoughts

[GizBeat]

Okay. I thought I read you had it already. Must have been you were still waiting for it. Good choice. Even better that you're happy with it.

Yes, the home button on some of those v3 do require a certain touch.

I've been wondering if they've managed to finally fix the hardware charging issues. If you get a chance, check out the charging curve with Battery Spy and see if it jumps from mid-80's to 100. You don't have to sit and watch it, just look at the curve any time after the unit reads 100%.

don't have to install anything for that, i can confirm that the battery charge jumps from 88 to 100% when charging.

Yea, if you happen to watch it. I suggested the app so that wouldn't be required.

Hmm... Interesting they still haven't gotten that fixed. I swap, so it never bothered me... But I still find it interesting...

funny thing - nfc does not work anymore now.
i tested with my S3 and it was recognized, the transfer of the file did not work though.
i tried with the nfc tags i have and now nfc does not work at all.
i tried rebooting, reseating the backcover, nothing works. not that it bothers me too much, i would have liked the possibility of fast and easy file transfer but i can live without it. i'm sure it can be fixed by poking around with the contacts, but i just cannot be bothered..

I guess you try pushing down on that area where the NFC is? There is an extra snap there. Probably is contact related as u mention already.

[linr76]

yup i did that, i even checked the contacts and it seems they do connect.
maybe some cleaning will do the trick, but as i said, its not a big deal for me.
OTG is much more useful and that works fine.

"Do you have Inew V3 support wcdma 900 and language polish?
iNew Mobile:
