Anyone tried darkys v9.3 beta yet?

Wait till there's news about availability of sgs 2 till next month. There's rumor that it will be available this month for europe and asia. No idea if sgs2 will use gorilla glass as well but for the rest of the specs, sgs2 beats the first iteration.

My advice, wait for sgs2.

No need. Can use offline gps like papago x5.

I just installed papago X5. The GPS lock time is ok. About 15s. But the accuracy is way too off. Do you guys think it is due to software problem?

From my experience this is papago problem. Accuracy is way better in Aura GPS and googlemap.

Btw, my papago gps accuracy is not "way too off" like in your case. Maybe you want to finetune your accuracy in LBS mode.

Dude how to LBS mode?

i tried to key in the *#*#1472365#*#*.... that mentioned on the 2nd post, didnt come out anything at all..

Try this *#*#3214789650#*#*

Actually... you're using all the numbers on the keypad. Start with 3 and end with 0 in circular counter clockwise.

That work! Suggest TS to include this onto the 2nd post.

After which, what shall i do to fine tune the gps? set the accuracy?

Nothing much can do on the settings. However, some users do experience better GPS. Your mileage maybe vary. Only the second and third settings.

The best mod is still the antenna modification but I've not done it yet coz my GPS accuracy is spot on and start time is less than 2 minutes at most.

This article may help you a bit.

waiting for stable release

Cute...

yesh... got my casing from jason this afternoon...

THanks jason for helping me apply my screen protector...

no problem man. you should share your review of it. looks nice in champagne gold..but still yellow is my love

why he got 1st i want mine also

Yup made the right choice choosing champagne gold, if not later all gunmental then sien lor hahaha
Yellow is still the best color, sharp, stands out the most in crowds...

The matte finish of the casing is nice but not what i really expected, expecting a rougher matte finish and mayb a bit of a metal feel something like the Desire HD if u know what i mean.

THe phone fits nicely into the case but have to apply a few rubber strips provided to prevent the casing from scratching the chrome bezel, the back is nicely shielded and they have also provided three camera lens protector which i've looked all over for XD

Real solid case which adds a bit of thickness to the phone, but in a good way, better grip and looks bolder if u choose a very very sharp color (I challenge anybody to take up the vivid series fantasia color XD)

yea papago SUCKS ...

my GPS status says i got 5m accuracy.... the GOOGLE maps shows 5m accuracy..


The stupid papago shows 15m accuracy ...... PAPAGO will never go below 15m ... I NEVER SEE that happen b4..


Some people here seems to say papago is accurate for them ... i guess "15m" satisfy them... i cant complain about that..



Btw.... @decypher

Yes, you freaking need a DATA PLAN ... TRUST ME ....

Or else you would end up baling ur phone @ wall then sepak sepak ....


Getting a lock without data plan is realy a B*tch .... It is to the point that you rather not have a GPS on ur SGS... Believe me.. it is THAT BAD....

I just installed Papage M7.1 V2.0, installing maps now. Will test it later.

I will report on the results!

thaat 15m you are talking about in the papago are not accuracy

open it, and press zoom in and out you will know, if you dont know what is that then you didnt learn geography in school

omg. I installed Papago M7.1 already, but when I tried to open, it only shows a window with some chinese words. I think it means I don't have Papago/Maps installed in the SD card?

I already copied NaviSEA into the SD card via Mass Storage...

EDIT: I read somewhere X5 is english but M7.1 is for Android in Chinese? I'll just try out X5.
