Spoilt Power Buttor

dave82 — Wed, 25 Oct 2017 10:50:18 +0800

Hi few days ago, I dropped my phone (ZTE Blade A910) and the power off/on button got dented. So the screen keep on going on and off (cause the power button is constantly being pushed). The official service centre is asking for RM300 plus to repair it (not under warranty as it is hardware). The phone itself costs around RM450 and I feel its too costly to get it repaired. Do you guys know any places where I could get a cheaper quotation albeit not an official service centre?

Titan Whey Agym Nutrition Review?

dave82 — Wed, 27 Sep 2017 01:00:52 +0800

I recently sampled Titan Whey by Agym nutrition, which I believe is a company based in Singapore.It does taste good (chocolate flavour) and has 22gm of protein per scoop. It is relatively inexpensive compared to other more popular international brands of whey. I tried to search reviews for this particular whey in the search option but I can't seem to find any. Even Google isn't helping much.

Just wondering, anyone else using Titan Whey by Agym Nutrition? Want some feedback/reviews from other users before deciding to purchase a full tub.

(By the way, a disclaimer, I am in no way affiliated to the brand or the company in any way or being paid to write this. Picture attached is the whey mentioned in the post)

Accident and police report

dave82 — Mon, 03 Apr 2017 03:24:26 +0800

I was involved in a car vs motorcycle (I was the car driver) accident slightly more than a month ago. I sent the motorcyclist to the nearest hospital as he was complaining of pain etc in his body. Anyway, I went to do a police report right after sending the motorcyclist to the hospital as I was concerned that he might be injured from the impact. However, upon returning to the hospital I sent him, he was discharged without any injury from the accident. We exchanged numbers at that point of time for communication purposes.

24 hours after the accident, the motorcyclist messaged me through whatsapp that he wants to settle the damages outside as he was poor etc. However, I informed him to make a police report as regardless, he was sent to the hospital. But he didn't do any police report until now and the investigating officer does not seem to want to do anything. My car has been sent to the workshop and had to claim insurance. What should I do?

Is Ultimate Nutrition Prostar 100% Whey Protein worth buying?
it does not seem popular compared to Dymatize and ON but Dymatize is always out of stock and ON is relatively more expensive

Body composition analysis

dave82 — Wed, 11 Nov 2015 15:32:23 +0800

Hi,

I am looking for a place to get complete body composition analysis especially body fat % for free. The machine type where one has to stand on the scales and hold something and then ultimately get a printed result for body fat, muscle mass, bone mass etc.

Does anyone know where I can get it done for free? Need it to monitor my progress especially reducing body fat.

I have a electronic weighing scale at home, supposedly able to monitor body fat %, , but I find it highly inaccurate.

The other question is that what measures should one take to ensure that the body fat percentage calculated by those machines is accurate? Is it true that one should not drink water or eat at least 4 hours before measuring to get accurate results? Some people say that these factors can change the accuracy of the measurements.

Please enlighten me.

Thank you in advance.

Laptop screen problem

dave82 — Mon, 11 Nov 2013 14:41:49 +0800

Hi.
I bought a Fujitsu laptop 2 years ago and past few weeks its giving some problems with the screen . So, I sent it to Fujitsu and was told that the LCD cable is spoilt. I have to pay RM160 to get the NEW LCD cable fixed. I don't mind paying but estimated waiting time for the LCD cable to arrive from overseas is 3 months and I need the laptop to do my work. Does anyone knows where else can I buy Fujitsu LCD cable locally? Would lowyat plaza have the stock or anywhere else in KL/selangor?
Thanks in advance.

Hey guys i am a new member to this forum and I have been reading all the posts on the Calif Fitness, FF , celeb fitness and etc and i m so confused....

I am looking forward to join a gym temporarily for 2 months as I will be transfered out of KL in 2-3months. Was in mid valley a couple of days ago and they seem to only give 1 day free pass!

does anyone know about free weekly/monthly trials organised by any of the gyms in KL? or does anyone have any free trials they are not using at the moment?

Thanks a million
