laugh.gif Actually RAM swap is not helping for 256MB RAM or above device............for 128MB, it does help

they said that swapping RAM to sd is not recommended since the read/write for the sd card is slow..

crap there
citibank senq advertises 3 months installement for each phone

but when ask about SGS advertise at 2699-400, citibank card requires a min 3000 to do 36 month
bullshit advertising,

then ask about SG5 advertisement which offer RM29.90 x 36month, the counter person said under 1K cannot do installement

what a bullshit brouchure

Hi there, Need your advice...

I am a newbie to smartphone. Basically I just need a wifi phone where I can access to MSN and light browing at hotspots. My brother has just got himself a Corby Wifi... quite easy to use but I prefer a better colour resolution and faster internet browing. I am looking at Galaxy 5...

Please give me some clues as to whether I should get a Galaxy 5. I don't play multimedia games with handphone at all. Thanks.

smile.gif IMHO
Gaming performance - tight, this froyo did not seem faster in gaming, maybe a bit

Apps Compatibility - tight, the apps can use on eclair, can support by froyo too, the apps not support on eclair, cant use on this froyo

Battery - eclair win a bit, i felt that this froyo version consume battery faster

GPS - tight, this froyo not likely can locking faster. It cant access GPS Setting (USSD mode)
even the froyo has 90 degree problem but it dont effect much, Papago and GPS test still running without problem, no worry on this part

Sound - felt that the loudspeaker for froyo a bit better than eclair but i might wrong, its a subjective view

Video - tight, just tested the rockplayer, still lagging while playing high bitrate rmvb

Interface - froyo win, smoother in sliding, faster booting, faster media file scanning, colorful wording

Task Manager/RAM Management - froyo win, good apps with nice RAM management, better than ATK

Social Network (fb, twitter) - tight, did not found any changing

Flash - tight, both version still unable support flash

Apps2SD
- no doubt, froyo all the way

any others?
Nice summary sgpc. I agree and would like to add one more.

Connectivity - Froyo.

The the portable wifi hotspot feature elevates froyo to a new level. When I used Barnacle wifi tether for the first time, I was like "wow, now a phone can emulate wifi router?" Not perfect, you can't connect other phone to G5 in ad-hoc mode for example, but amazing still. Now the froyo's build in wifi tether that works in infrastructure mode as opposed to ad-hoc mode in barnacle, complete that illusion. It's a feature that is very handy and also will no doubt impress a lot of your friends. OK, perhaps unlimited data plan is still very expensive in most countries, and wifi tethering is a cool feature but has no practical use for those people. Now look at the wifi router feature and consider these scenarios:

1. Want to transfer large files between laptops but no one has flashdisk large enough? No problem. Transform your G5 into router and send those files away up to 20 meters or more, at about 1.25 MB/s transfer rate in my case.

2. While you are waiting for the transfer to finish, you and your friend(s) want to play a quick LAN games? Done!

3. Sharing a printer? Yes.

Etc, you get the idea, basically every benefit that a router has.

PS: Just an update to my situation. It turns out the source of my problem is that my operator (telkomsel) is blocking tethering when using froyo's build-in. I tried using other mobile operators (indosat and xl) and wifi tethering worked like charm. There is no problem in using barnacle. So next time if you guys are having problem wifi tethering with froyo's build-in router, you might want to point finger to your operator before blaming your setup.
