Before you flash, you root, use titanium to backup.
After flash, root again, then restore your system setting.

Actually no harm to root.

Chance to brick - High if you mess up
Chance to regain control - High, just go to download mode and reflash

Chance of eventual success on upgrade - High, just keep trying and note down mis-steps.

Frankgan - The keyboard can be downloaded via market - Google IME
Download that, then go to settings and add it to your input method, after that, when you go to a textbox and want to type in mandarin, long press the textbox and change input method to google IME.

You need installer, go to market and download. And it is drop to SD card as well. Please read earlier posts or do a search in V1 and V2 before posting here thanks.

Actually can la, but an installer will show you the icon and all that.
And it auto scans your SDcard for any apks, it just makes things easier without having to do file exploring.

Yes that's right, you can do that too. Once you have many apks then an installer will make it simpler.

Samsung Mobile service center customer service at plaza berjaya is great btw. It may look veryyy small and simple but the service is not what i imagined earlier. A friend of mine got a hairline on this SGS (one straight line, not sure if its a dead pixel) and it was replaced within a few hours once the stock arrived.  I asked the personnel and she told me the actual price for a replacement of the super amoled is roughly around 600+-. Its a good idea to get the ori set from Maxis. No question asked when my friend handled over the device, he just filled a simple form and bring along his warranty card along and the phone.

so in that case if we had any problem with our SGS, we can forget about going to maxis mad.gif and straight go the samsung service centre? rclxms.gif

Yes, you can do that, besides, they send it back to customer care anyway.
So why not you just send it back if it's near you.
