Thinking of getting the Galaxy S from Maxis but am concerned about the lag issue. Is it crippling? Also, does Android in Malaysia still require Market Enabler to make paid app purchases?
EDIT: Am trying to decide between this and Desire. This post has been edited by thornduck: Oct 27 2010, 09:51 PM |

Okay, I gave in and ended up buying the phone anyway. Didn't feel like waiting for the Desire HD/Z and the Super AMOLED screen sold itself. Just got the phone from Maxis today. While I've been reading about rooting the phone and stuff, I'm not sure what I should be doing first, etc. Is there an extensive step by step page anywhere? Bought the phone from Maxis if that matters (software, etc)

It usually says your phone is up to date?

2. Catch is you have to sign up for the 78 MYR 3GB data plan for that duration.

After using the Galaxy S for little under a week now, I'm thinking of flashing to DocKalpik's. Just want to get a few things straight before I attempt it this evening.
1. I've confirmed that 3BR is working on my unit. 2. Before flashing, I should backup IMEI and this requires root. So the process is root, backup IMEI, factory reset followed by flash? 3. Also, does DocKalpik already come bundled with a lag fix or do I have to instal one on top of it? Thanks in advance. This post has been edited by thornduck: Nov 8 2010, 09:05 AM |

QUOTE(pcboy @ Nov 8 2010, 09:16 AM) 1. Good Thanks a lot! Will charge the phone and attempt this soon.2. a. backup /efs folder b. download Clockworkmod Recovery. Rename it to update.zip and put in sdcard c. download either JPA or JPO v7.6.2.zip ... put in sdcard d. go to recovery mode and flash those files 3. yes, it comes with universal lagfix. So you don't have to install seperate lagfix. after finish flashing the rom, go to recovery mode and you can see the 'ULK' feature  |

Okay. DocKalpik successfully flashed.
1. Backed up efs using sgs toolbox after rooting with superoneclick. 2. Followed ROM instructions. No issues whatsoever. Nothing is installed yet but it feels really really smooth. Should've done this before I started installing apps! This post has been edited by thornduck: Nov 9 2010, 12:23 AM |

Trying to enable market but I can't find Market Access on Android Market. Was wondering if there are more user friendly methods to activate market.
