@Jason : what do u mean by grippy/rubbery?

reporting back from gps hardware fix .. it was super easy, but shit happens and sadly i broke the antenna ... damn emo now ...

it was seriously so easy, till it made me curious and i tried to pry the down part of it end up whole thing came off ... opening the cover was relatively easy, search for rectangular holes on the side and put in a small flat screw driver then slowly pry it open, each sides consist of 2+ holes .. do it under a table light, the easiest hole to spot is beside the volume rocket, it is hidden below the chrome part ..

i am now hoping if anyone here familiar with electronics, is there any conductive glue so that i can just glue it back or the only way is by soldering?  now living without gps, lucky still got data plan for google map ...

@KH Cheah, currently searching for some solutions ... no $$ to get external gps receiver 
luckily in my case, the whole piece of chrome antenna came off from the board ... its not broken into 2 piece so i think still can save, hopefully ... and i am not gonna solder it, havent touch solder since ages ago back in secondary ...

gonna try out using super glue, if cant then i will have to send it all the way back m'sia ... OMG!

btw, i quoted a link about the battery info back in previous page

On the positive side, u r now our resident expert on gps hardware fix. ;-)

Hi all,

Darky v8.0 to Darky v9.2? tq

hi all~~~ thinking of trying speedmod on my phone.
before that, can anyone advice on how to remove/uninstall speedmod, or how to get back to the original kernel?

my experience with odin so far is only to fix the 3 button combo

thanks~

oh~ just wanted to make sure i know how to revert it in case need send for warranty thanks~

cuz i dun know how to do it...    ... the XDA guide is just some few picture that dont even have step by step guide ...
too bad now another problem is Papago instead of GPS....  Since GPS showing good accuracy but PAPAGO accuracy sucks..
By the way... ive tested iGO few months back.... the navigation seems good and very accurate.... but problem is theres no map update for it (malaysia map) ....
SO i was wondering if anyone using iGO here able to find the latest map.... or any GPS software that you guys use that is accurate and have new updates for maps

May I know wats the market price for an entry level decent gps receiver? Thx

i am now with this firmware.. quite snappy..

Again the optimist .....

unless 15-30m Accuracy is VERY ACCURATE to you ... then i got nothing to say adi....
I found out that its not the SGS problem... its actualy the PAPAGO itself ....
My GPS status test 5-10m accuracy... while when i tab out to papago.. it shows 15m ... and it will Never go below 15m ...
Google maps would constantly show 10m when i test drive it around the same area (Feels very accurate... and near perfect)
But papago ... at the same area .... it will always be 15m or more... (always fluctuate between 15m-30m) ..... so sometimes it might capture my position offroad or the other side of the road...
iGO seems to be a good and accurate GPS.... but problem is the map is not updated for malaysia....
So .. just wanna know sgs users here what GPS software they use......
Ive seen someone mention a few diff GPS software on the past version threads ..... but cant find which thread it is and definately no idea what query to search for..

sauce??

Leaked sgs2 specs:http://phandroid.com/2011/02/10/huge-spec-leak-wildfire-2-desire-2-desire-hd2-and-galaxy-s2/

Are you realy sure??? What papago software u use??

X5 or M7??? or is there any other papago android that i dont know about

Can anyone clarify that PAPAGO can have an Accuracy below 15m??
The accuracy Thing is Below the Speed meter right??
It never shows below 15m .... even when i start the app.. it is 15m...
It shows more than 15m even my GPS status stated 5m ....

Hi guys, wanna ask abt GPS in SGS Froyo.

Do I need a Data Plan to use GPS? Because I don't have one but would like to use the GPS feature on the phone.

i search through internet and found out this:
http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/40679778...or_Samsung.html

may be some of us can do a bulk order for the battery casing.
Prefer to use my phone naked too
hehe

found this on the bay, i wonder if it's identical to the genuine one.

http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/37453936...0_Galaxy_S.html

This one has the Samsung logo, doesn't have the google logo.

BTW this looks cool, might try it out someday

well, currently i'm using n900 as my phone.. i bought this phone last year with a sole promised to myself.. no more new phones.. but yeah.. after the shyt nokia has fallen into, and the maemo project masuk longkang, i guess, i just might jump ship..

a month ago i have been eyeing on SGS, but on the day im at maxis to buy the phone, the people there told me to wait a few months for the new SGS2.. so yeah.. i'm waiting.. as waiting is what i can do.. but, will only buy if it is under maxis contract..

I am finding moboplayer to be a better video player than rockplayer..

http://moboplayer.com/moboplayer_en.html

Waah, call me macha some more..

A buddy of mine found moboplayer and recommended it to me, seems that the lead developer from the rockplayer team left the team and developed moboplayer on his/her own. I noticed RMVB playback to be smoother with moboplayer than rockplayer.

I bought my batt from aliexpress.com - it was a 1800mAh batt for the SGS, free shipping, cost me USD9.99 and arrived in 14 days. My colleague has just ordered her 3000mAh batt for her SGS from batterybay.net, I think, for USD19.79 with free shipping also.
