I'm interested in this phone. I'm planning to buy at Fantastic Communications in Kepong (behind Jusco Kepong) for RM630. Is it a trusted shop?

Any experience buying from that shop? Any one?

Hi guys, I'd like to know:

How to root our Galaxy 5?

Hi guys, I need help. Just purchased my Galaxy 5.

I think there's something wrong with my clock. When I set my clock (go to setting -> Date & Time -> Set time), It doesn't show the real time on my idle screen, if I Select my time zone correctly GMT +8:00 Malaya Time).

For example, if I select my time zone as GMT +8:00 Malaya Time and set the clock correctly (let's say 8.00 am), the real clock (on idle screen) will delay by 7 hours. (in this case 1.00 am).

So if I want the Android to display the real time, I need to select the time zone as GMT +0:00 Azores Summer Time.

This is the reason why I was late for work because the alarm didn't sound!

Someone, please help me!

That's actually the problem. If I do it like that, my clock would be delayed by hours.

Please help!!!!!!!!

Guys, any good free GPS apps for our Galaxy 5?

C'mon dude don't insult my intelligence. Before going to the store which may take more than an hour from home, it's better to ask around first. That's life, boy. I've traveled far enough to see different times. It's just that it is painfully frustrating not able to do things that you can do without knowing how to do so, like setting time on a damn phone!!!!

Thanks for r3ivax and StupidGuyPlayComp for solving my problem. It doesn't work for the first time, but after a few times of restarts, it worked. I think I have to go to the Samsung service center.


By the way folks, I'm looking for a case (hard case or silicon case or leather bag) for the phone, but have a hard time finding it. Ebay has only white silicone case, which is not that attractive. Anyone has succeeded in finding one? Where????

Now I've got another problem. My clock is OK, but all my phone logs and message history are not synched with the clock, even the calls and messgaes after I set my clock correctly. The call I received just now at 1.15pm (real clock) showed 7.15pm in my phone log.

Man, real headache or is it just me? I really miss my Motorola Razr v3xx. Guys, please help!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys, now I realize that I can't browse through my phonebook when I'm typing an SMS if someone requests for a contact number of another person. Anything to resolve this or it can be done?

I've had this phone for 3 weeks, but still I can't get GPS to work!

I've installed Papago X5, and to the extend that letting my GPS on for 3 hours, but it can't get the satellite to lock!!!!!!!

Someone please help me!!

Sorry dude, but I also have a hard time to find your guide. Could you please share it? Sorry, I'm just really really new. Thanks.

Hey dude, finally I got my GPS worked!

It couldn't still lock the satellite when I went outside of my terrace house, where tall buildings are even not around.
But this morning when I went to the driving range, while swinging I left my phone on the floor, then after a few minutes the satellite was detected! Then I took the opportunity to go back home using the GPS, and to my surprise, Papago is that quite accurate.

Thanks man for the guide.

Thanks for sharing that app. It's nice indeed.

But for some reason, or maybe I'm ignorant enough, I can't make the clock big enough just like in your attachment. All clock skins I choose only occupies about 1/8 of my screen.

Is there any way to adjust the size of the clock? Thanks man.

Hi guys, I've had Handcent for a couple of days now, but still I can't get rid off the stock app (Messaging) notification, even I disabled it. Every time I receive an SMS, I've got 2 notifications. How to REALLY disable it guys???

I've tried Menu->Messaging->Settings->Untick notifications, but still I receive 2 notifications!

Please help!

Yes, I have set Handcent as my default SMS app, but still I can't get it done.

The most frustrating experience I have since I bought this phone is no matter what I do or no matter how many times I try to disable the "notifications" of the stock app messaging, I still receive 2 notifications (Handcent + stock app messaging) whenever I receive an SMS.

Or did I miss a part other than disabling the notifications of the stock app? Damn!
