Where the cheapest place to get it right now and how much?

So far the cheapest i've seen is on LYN here, for RM630. Anyone got it below RM630?

Btw, hows the availability of accessories for this phone like screen protector and case?
*
cheapest I saw is RM619, web seller without shoop

I buy from web seller moon, she became famous seller of Galaxy 5 now..........
She told me that she bought one Galaxy 5 as well

Have you activate the gps in the Android setting?


Added on September 27, 2010, 8:06 pmMy setting,
Setting - Location & Security Setting - Use Wireless Network (keep tick)
Setting - Location & Security Setting - Use GPS Satellite (keep tick)

Setting - Wireless & Network - Mobile Networks - Enable always on mobile (tick or untick is up to you, I untick)

Indoor, you can use google maps with wifi, lock in few second, but location not accurate
indoor without wifi, I not even success, this machine sux in indoor locking
Outdoor, usually lock within a minute depend the surrounding building (Driving in car also can)

Most of the shop not yet carry G5........it quite new and non famous model

Moon told me that still dont have screen protector for G5, I using Samsung Corby s.protector
you need too cut a bit to suite G5

^ with call plan it is more cheap , since wildfire with maxis is affordable too . if it is priced around rm400 -500 ,definitely worth getting.

Added on September 27, 2010, 8:33 pmThread starter pmed me and mentioned that he give up this thread.........

Benefit of Root
-you can uninstall the system apps like, google maps, wallpaper, Layar.......
-you can use the apps which require root level, like screenshoot apps, overclock apps etc.........
-use custom ROM

Disadvantage of Root
-might bring unstable of system
-void warranty


Added on September 28, 2010, 10:22 amFor apps2sd, you need to root and custom ROM.
Unfortunately there is no custom ROM available for Galaxy 5 at this moment

I think it is more like the running memory which is used. Anyway not much difference to me, the only thing i am waiting is a custom ROM for Froyo 2.2. I want it to be inside my Milestone and Galaxy 5. Wonder how would a 5 time faster OS works in an Android. haha

I knew xda team is working on it, actually they release some update but it really minor i think, not worth to flash the update


Added on September 28, 2010, 10:54 am biggrin.gif Do you guys think that the "Samsung Apps" a really useless resource.......
I cant find any apps there, sux our ROM space only

bro..what is a-gps? is it different with gps? currently im using gps with papago software,the one u give me..but need 5-10 min to lock the satellite...but u said with a-gps can help me faster...so how to do it bro?  sweat.gif

icon_rolleyes.gif A-GPS stand for Assisted GPS, which can use nearby few tele broadcast station to locking your current position. Some data will send out to test the station distance. So it will charge you data fees(gprs fees), around RM0.10 per locking.

With the help of a-gps, it will lock the satellite faster, once it locked the a-gps will stop function, giving the task to GPS (FOC now)
