really need to advice people that are buying to check the recovery and download mode when buying/received

The one that was on samsung apps required activation cause vlingo used to charge for the app. Now it's free.
Sad thing is that the app requires data/internet connection to work.

Hello, my phone have 3 button recovery disable. Is it safe for me to use vodoo fix??

Go for it! Almost all the apps open in less than a second, super smooth.

Its how it should be in the first place

But i can only enter the recovery mode using the adb, cannot use the 3 button like usuall. How should i proceed and it is really safe if something wrong happened??

its the same thing.

Make sure you REMOVE any other lagFixes before that.

Very simple steps, place the voodoo zip files in INTERNAL sd card, rename it to update.zip

go to recovery, apply update.zip

there will be cool voice to assist you, wait for it to finish, done. =)

Ok bro, i will try it, thnx....

IF you happened to have a hard brick, showing a pic of phone--!-->PC, then you've ended up having a paper weight brick.

For those who have 3 button recovery disabled, even rooting poses significant risk.

I wish you good luck.

Added on September 14, 2010, 8:16 pmI'm curious to know. Would Maxis or other Samsung dealer let you break the seal and honor return when the phone does not get into recovery mode? The rules are not clearly defined. You may have regarded a SGS without recovery mode as defective, but would Samsung consider that?

So far, only Samsung Canada responded on their Facebook fan page. The owner of the fan page is yet to be known; it could be false news. Samsung in all other countries, especially UK, have denied exchanging the phone.

In other words, I doubt someone can deliberately avoid getting a recovery-disabled SGS. Rather, it's a luck game.

Weird..out of the blue my phone suddenly lose connection to 3g

Went and check the APN and all gone..manual input APN settings and save it still doesnt seem to get my APN back up.

hey, want to ask. Im considering the N8 and Samsung Galaxy S. My question now is, will Samsung be releasing any Android phones with a cam like the N8's or close to it? i would love to get the Samsung Galaxy S now but the letdown is the cam

if i brick my phone, i cannot flash it back with other ROM??

I am concern that this Voodoo fix will void the warranty of the phone.

I find that I liked OCLF better than voodoo. Voodoo messed up auto brightness for me. Disabled voodoo and back to OCLF.

what if i wanna uninstall it?

If you brick it and can't even enter recovery. Just send it for warranty. Say it suddenly cannot start.

If they themselves can't even go into recovery mode, what makes you think they can check anything?

I'm flashing using Odin and it changed my product code. I want to revert to original code but i dont know. Pls somebody buying from maxis. Tellme what is the product code?

Hi I'm just wondering if I get an Android based phone like this SGS, do I need to get a data plan?

I'm currently using a symbian phone with prepaid line only.

Without data plan, I would say your experience with the phone will be crippled. Its still a good phone with great multimedia function, but, yeah...

Sales code doesn't really matter la.

Added on September 14, 2010, 10:21 pmI don't have a data plan, i am using adhoc. But then again, most of the time I'm in a wifi enabled area.
So I don't really find that not having a data plan is crippling.

Ah, forgot about wifi.

Me, Apart from my house, no wifi for me.

So data plan is crucial.
