Only SME (Samsung Malaysia Electronics) is the official distro. Any other, it is AP.

8GB = confirmed AP.

You mean SME only selling 16GB?

sengasdf, hope you got everything fixed up and flash to the fw that you want.

BTW, does US has Galaxy S I9000? Doesn't theirs called Captivate or something? Which doesn't come with front facing camera.

Only 1 solution, keep checking your WhatsApp Network Usage info, after you disable the sync.  rclxms.gif

Sorry if this doesn't really work out. My data utilisation is still way below, despite just 500mb package. So I don't really bother if it use or not (at least for this month).  blush.gif

Thanks again. I do that (checking on the Total bytes sent) and found that if I did not received/sent any sms, the total bytes
will remain the same(this show that Whatsapp is not taking any data usage).

But when I checked on the 3G watchdog, the kb keep increasing (only around 20 - 50kb every 30 minutes).
Note: I disable all the email push (I set it to manually retrive)

I really like Whatsapp alot and hopefully it did not takeup too many data usage when we did not sent/received any sms.


Cheers...

Let me survey around where JM1 is intended to be.

Edit: A quick search shows JM1 is official firmware for UK

Actually, secure or not, I don't really bother. Unless ISA wanna trace me. Hahaha.

Even if ISA wanna find me, I better go off the net/wire/tech, to be safe.

So, just location information, secured/encrypted or not, don't care la. Besides, without encryption, it reduces the overheads/data packet size, although minimal.

BTW, I followed the instructions given. Not sure if it improves my GPS locking speed, cause all the while, it's acceptable for me for the A-GPS to lock. No complain on it and I tried not to use it too, cause accuracy down the drain one. tongue.gif

Don't want to be driving on the Malacca Straights like I did last time when I was cruising on the coast of Penang Island using my trusty E66's GPS. tongue.gif

us.pool.ntp.org to my.pool.ntp.org

Hi,

I think I've done up until this step only, which is to change the host where you update your location information to.
http://www.samsunggalaxysforum.com/samsung...sg1584/#msg1584

As for the rest of the info regarding usable in US only, I didn't bother. blush.gif

Ty this 1 first and see how it goes?

so far it's ok..but long term consequences not yet known...nevermind i will stick to it and report back..nvm we still have our friend samsung SC...for a year long..hehhe... whistling.gif

but after using this phone for 5 month..i think it's safe..because from my experience previously..if i done something not right to my phone..it will show immediate effect..its like toying with your computer then..

I am doing it. See page 7 on my post.

I tried this method earlier on with original voodoo v3 + oclf. Later I uninstall oclf coz I scared got conflict.

After reading the thread at xda. I decided to try again using the new voodoo with stock kernel (which believe to be better than original voodoo in terms of battery saving) + oclf.

So far, after half day of use. My phone is still flying. :-)
