i agree. manage to solve this problem by entering flight mode.  smile.gif

Is this really a specific android problem?
I find that in another android phone like wildfire, there is already a button on the phone to toggle the data on or off. You dont have to download any app to do that. And you don't have to "solve" the problem by switching the flight mode on and off.

Being a cheapskate. I didn't want to buy from Gurney because of the inflated price, so I went to BJ, asked almost every shop. Only two shops willing to sell SGS. One shop was charging 2699 but has stock in hand and the other shop RM2500 but no stock on hand. Had to wait for a week for them to get SGS from Maxis. That's why so pain.
*
For that price, why dont you buy directly from Maxis--RM2,599, and get 18 months warranty. ;-)
If you can get below below RM2k, then it's worth all the hassle. ;-)

Bought mine at Bayan Baru 7 weeks ago.
Got it right there and then.
Only problem was getting SP and case for it.
Ran all over the island but couldn't find any.
So, it was naked for 6 weeks. smile.gif

For SGS using firmware JG4, you can disable data connection by going to "settings>wireless n network>mobile networks>access point names>Maxis Internet>APN type". Choose MMS only.

This will disable data internet connection.

Why all the hassle when u could easily turn it on or off using one of the widgets from the market like APN on/off, etc. smile.gif

I downloaded the Facebook for Samsung app but can't log-in even after numerous attempts! After I submitted my account details, it will have a pop-up stating "Log-in failed. Please try later." Must have happened 6, 7 times so I got fed up.

Anyone encountered the same problem? Do I have to activate my background sync or any other setting?
*
No problem for me at all.
Just key in email account and password and it logs in smoothly.

Even a camera with flash for low light or night shots won't really give much satisfactory results.

No problems with GPS, I think people get over worked over what the guys in the US are experiencing. Cause from day 1 GPS wasn't an issue to me.

Apps wise, very satisfied.

With 1 LED flash, it's not going to make any difference.
U will be surprised that SGS with the night setting can take better pictures than those with 1 or 2 LED flash. smile.gif

this method does work. tried it a few days ago. unfortunately, it doesn't work the way i want it to.
i have one folder where i put my ringtones. and i put .nomedia file in it. those ringtones were no longer shown in my music player (stock player).
but now i can't use those ringtones as my ringtones. coz my phone can't find those files.
in the end, i removed .nomedia file from that folder and make a new playlist like before.
*
I have the same problem. The ringtones appear in the folder for my music player.
If I create a .nomedia for the ringtones, they disappear from the folder for the music player. But the phone can't find the ringtones. How do you solve this?

Sigh, i also got the same problem with Vlingo.

I downloaded Vlingo from Samsung Apps, then when I wanted to use it, it asked for activation code....so I uninstalled it and try to download and reinstall again...

Unfortunately, i can't reinstall again from Samsung apps...it says Application failed to install no matter how many times I tried. Switch off phone and on again, also cannot.

Then I went to Market to search for Vlingo and when I try to download and install, I got an Installation Error message saying "Insufficient storage available"...how can that be? I still have more than 13GB of Internal SD card space and more than 14GB space on my External MicroSD card...

Anyone can help me?

Thanks
*
That's strange.
When I first faced the problem of activation code, I uninstalled it.
But when I went to Samsung app to look for it, I couldn't find it there anymore.
Then I looked for it in the Market and found it there. Downloaded it from the Market and now it works a charm.
Also I can now find it in Samsung app again.
