thx!which port on sgs going to use?

i suggest hunt it from 5800 owners, the older batch of 5800 does come with 1 of those tv out cable

anyone want to be white mice for the fix to 3 buttons recovery?

Actually, USB to HDMI cannot be used yet. Samsung might or might not provide this feature!

U just hv to wait for Samsung to announce!!

10% of my dept coleagues are using galaxy s nw. now v have 3 units liao.

I still have a bit of phobia to upload and save all my contacts with Google....hmm, you never know what they will do with all your personal info, contacts, calendar etc....or whether naughty people can hack in to steal info....ha ha...just being paranoid

As know that the case consist of 2 layers, inner layer will be silicon cover & the outer layer is hard plastic cover, actually the silicon cover not much different with other brand silicon case (eg PDAir luxury silicon case which i have been using all the while), now with the hard plastic applied on it become very solid, the feeling is totally different if compared with silicon standalone case.

I brought this through Case-mate online store by using 20% discount code from Case-mate, the total price inclusive of shipping is about RM96.

Lastly here are some photos to share.

Yes I know. But even after I exit the GPS, it is still consuming battery power when I check on the battery use in settings. I think this is a bug in android software. Anyone can confirm this?

Added on September 8, 2010, 10:12 amI found a thread about this GPS draining battery issue... Very similar to my problem. I need to restart my SGS in order to clear away the GPS software from draining my battery.

http://androidforums.com/droid-x-support-t...-bug-w-gps.html

have u tried to reboot ur phone? ... any task running? check in the task manager ...

i read some one xda mentioning that papago x5 is the cause for the phone not getting into sleep mode, but thats for moto driod x ...

Hey man. I've been facing the same problem. Highlighted this since V3 thread... What I did? Just restart the phone and papago will no longer in the background...
No solid solution yet. If you have, please share...

I don't think it is OCLF or Voodoo. Previously I was on OCLF, after that change to Voodoo beta4. Papago still drains battery in the background even after you exit it. I think it is Papago software problem.. Anyhow, my papago is a trial version, full version i am not sure..

Actually I set to auto-brightness. I read the posting but not sure whether that is the case with this Papago.

The problem I found is as follows: You can check whether you are facing the same type of problem as I am facing.

1. I start Papago and run for a few minutes, let say 5 min.
2. I exit properly.
3. Half hour later I check battery usage using battery history (or spare parts or the codes you given).
4. Papago GPS use is 4m 50s, CPU use is 5m 20s, sensor use is 30m 20s.
5. I try run compass, drop game, camera, and every other apps that use sensor.
6. Another 15min pass, check battery history again, Papago GPS use 4m 50s, CPU use 5m 20s, sensor use 46m 35s.
7. Sensor battery use also got records of the compass, drop game, camera, etc. but they don't show increase after I stop those apps.

It appears that Papago activated a sensor and this sensor never shut down, lurking in the background draining battery all the time. I even tried flight mode, but the Papago sensor still active. Not sure how to proceed from here. So I just restart the phone and the problem goes away...

Hope you have better luck in catching this bug..

Not just papago but also gmap brut. I guess it is related to the gps, just now I checked *#*#4636*#*#, went into battery history, top dropdown select sensor, 2nd dropdown select total time, my gmap brut was on for 16days+ and papago for 7days+. Omg, bug!! Either a gps or sensor bug, lucky I have the habit of manual putting my phone into sleep mode, else my battery will finish fast like u all.
To those who used any gps b4, plz check to confirm.

Didn't want to reboot my phone coz I don't wan to lose the ram manager from the samsung task manager. Hope there is a fix for this and the ram manager.

zzzzz i tried the code and still no battery history. You guys put the wrong one.
The actual code is  *#*#4636#*#*

Looks like your right, there could be a bug cause it shows that the sensor was active for 5 hours on my phone for a game even though I only played it for around 10-15 minutes.

Doesn't seem to be apps related to gps only. Games using the accelerometer are affected as well. Till a fix comes the only thing to do is reboot the phone I guess...

the irony is I charged my phone fully by 12pm before I sleep. and the battery drains to the last drop by 8am before the 3rd alarm I've set on 9am. This is annoying because sometimes it can't even make it to 7am.

like I've mentioned before, i've tried everything to save battery. how can it drains battery even when it's idle. now it sounds like voodoo is the culprit.

12pm - 8am is like 20 hours bro. That's ok what. (why you zzz so long?)

Ok, I agree it's annoying. I've gotten severe power drains during the course of the night as well, but that's usually caused by some rogue app that's using 3G. A couple of things you can do:
1. Check your battery stats, is Android OS chewing up the most resources (20+%)?
2. Check your data usage using 3G watchdog or netcounter. Is data being transfered when you're not using the phone?

I'm on JM5+Voodoo Beta 2. Here's my usage pattern:
1. Wifi off, HSDPA off, EDGE only
2. Gmail + Gtalk constantly on
3. Genie widget updates News and Weather every 6 hours
4. Launcher Pro Facebook widget updates every 3 hours
5. A couple of phone calls no longer than 2 mins each
6. About 5-10 sms
7. Total websurfing about 30 mins
8. No live wallpaper

Phone uptime: 6.5 hours. Unplugged it at 74% this morning, it's now showing 61% remaining.

sorry mate. previously i've posted 12pm to 8am. that was wrong. it was suppose to be from 12am to 8am. that's only 8hours in idle.

way worse than my previous iphone (3 years ++ old).

for those who has battery issue, please check your phone "battery history" to see if any software keep your phone in "running" or in "partially wake" state, it gonna drain your batt fast, i had this problem before and very mad before i found a damn software keeping my phone running 100%

suspecion for the papago battery drain could be real.
i'm on nearly 6 1/2 hours now and the battery is about 69% at the moment.

i've uninstalled OCLF the day i installed it...but the problem still there..it's not effecting my performance tho..but it's sore to the eyes...right now running voodoo beta4 and this lagfix reduced my brightness one step lower..but it is chopping when scrolling tru apps windows...maybe froyo can fix that...keep my finger crossed for froyo then..hehehe  

Ya, perli a bit la.

Seriously, though, iPhone4 is an excellent example of an almost perfect matching of OS and device (both from Apple ma). So for users who want a superb smartphone without having to fool/mess around with settings and tweaks and other techie 'headaches', go for the iPhone4.

I'm a tech-freak so the SGS give me ample opportunities to 'fcuk' around with the OS and phone. My first ever Android phone, this SGS, and it's been a lot of fun and pain so far..

Generally, when someone asks me, 'hi there, can you advise me which is better, iPhone4 or XXX', I will gladly tell them to go for the iPhone4..

so where can i get sandisk micro sd card? computer shop too ?
