yes i always download music from the net no problem

Does anyone have the hotmail email account working on the SGS?
How is it on the phone?

Here got one guy from the UK who can't seem to enter recovery/download modes.
Think 3 pages back.

maybe that is i9000-bell with 3 button disable

I just use the normal email program....
It's ok and works well. Only problem i.... Even u have read em, when u open ur hotmail account via computer, all the new emails is shown as unread.

..................

I'm getting mine today. Lets see if mine has disabled recovery or not. Hopefully not. Lol..

Nope.. you don't need Clockworkmod Recovery for that. What you need just Root and Terminal Emulator.

The steps I've taken:-
1) Using Terminal Emulator, remove the /data/system/batterystats.bin
2) Turn off the phone and charge till full (the battery symbol fully green)
3) Turn on the phone and charge till 100% full.

And yes, the result is good. I still have half of battery after 1 and 1/2 day usage include about 45 minutes Papago GPS and normal network, facebook and game.

I decide to do this when I feel after a while, my battery life become shorter. Seems like this is a known issue for Android since the above steps I get for G1 phone.

can use voodoo with oclf installed?

u guys should know that Microsoft just enabled ActiveSync for Hotmail on last week and only for iPhone,etc except Android for now but I can make it works as the others too..
I can choose when the new mail Push to me or instantly push(like Gmail)...
just search for hotmail or activesync in this thread and u will get steps to set up on it...

hmm..my friend one seem cant go into recovery/download mode by pressing the 3 button,however,i still manage to adb it into recovery/download mode..

Please read the FAQ

certain file cannot be downloaded directly from the mobile browser i think. such as .apk files. maybe it's purposely there to fight piracy issue Not sure about other.

Added on September 12, 2010, 11:38 amHotmail account was perfect using the built in "Email" apps. Although it require syncing, it's very close to a true push email notification service like those on blackberry. Set up is a breeze and i configure mine to check for new e-mail every one hour. You can reduce to as low as 5mins interval thought but i feel that it will be wasting too much battery to keep syncing.

Got my Singtel SGS. Locked recovery mode. As usual, only ADB can get into recovery mode. Seems dangerous to flash anything until Samsung or some developers fix this issue.

I have a few quetions,
1. Can this phone read microsoft word attachments, and powerpoint attachments from emails? Also, can you edit it on your phone?

2. When you have a new comment from fb, or a new tweet, or a new IM from msn, do you have to go into the app itself to see the new notification, or will the notification automatically appear in the notification bar?

3. And lastly, can you put up a full facebook widget on the TW UI, instead of the semi facebook widget?

hi there, i'm new user here just want to know, how many of the i9000 user here doesn't root the phone?

Well, I don root mine, im on jm2

1) Yes, read and edit using the office suite equivalent.

2) IM notification depends on the app - trillian allows, so does ebuddy. I prefer trillian. FB or tweet - No

3) FB or twitter, samsung has a built in widget called feeds and updates, u can choose FB or tweeter or both to be included.

So meaning, for fb and tweets, you have to constanly check the app for new notifications?

what is jm2 btw? more easy to use?

It's fed to you if you want it to, but it won't appear at the notification bar. It'll appear at the widget.

EJm2 is the firmware version where u canget at samfirmware.com jm2 is european firmware. I think jm2 is more efficient compRed to the stock fw
Im nw just waiting for official froyo to be released.
