hi fellow sgs users, havent posted in a long time but i still follow this thread, moving quite slow recently maybe it will pick up again after ginger bread is released.

anyway, i've been using stock video player to play most of my video files but it seem to have problems with flv files. out of 10 files only 1 could be played the rest is "unsupported".

i've also previously had problems with some avi files, i copied a whole bunch of files into the phone hoping to watch them during my vacation and all of them cant be read. so frustrating. for those avi files, to make it readable i have to convert them to wmv which takes like forever just for one file to be converted. anyone faced this problem before.

any recommendation for a good video player from the market?

no la, not even 720p, its low resolution video. will give mobo a try. but the VLC in the market can it be used as a video player? anyone tried before?

Thanks Deva macha, using Mobo i can now view the flv files i copied into my phone. will try the avi which i couldnt view previously when i get back home. Btw, can you let me know the address of the website that you bought the sgs battery from? lazy to search back, cant even recall which version that we talked about it. wanna buy a spare battery soon

wahlau, ur very advanced!! SGS might not worth that much when the SGS2 finally arrives. besides, i have my doubts about the battery life of the SGS2 and the upgrades dont seem so significant. i just hope Gingerbread will be available soon for SGS.

anyone know how to find skype for android? Cant find in Market and when i go to their website to install from there, im stuck with "Choose device on which to install" and when i select "Maxis Samsung GT-I9000 it says "This item is not available on your carrier". KNS!!

LOL, do you have a Kies alert on this thread or wat??!! but i agree, i dont use that piece of crap too. samsung should really create a software for only Android phones not share it with its Bada OS. but i heard the latest Kies is slightly more pleasant to use, couldnt be bothered to try it though

i second that, actually i was recommending gmhafiz since few versions ago!! thanks for becoming our new TS, gmhafiz.
