1) phone sometimes auto restart...
2) hang (have to remove batt) to restart...

3) sometimes lag....so have to restart...then is ok again....
practically above are minor problems......
but yesterday....my phone speaker...start to have problem....looks like have to send back to factory...to fix...it...
anybody....gone thru the procedure?? usually took how many days for them to repair??
*
1. did u install any app after u purchase this?
2. is your phone ori or AP?
3. when do u usually experience the above?
4. maybe you would like to do a factory reset, to see phone still have issues

hope the above helps

No man. Thats to adjust overall volume. Lets say i set it to 10. When ppl calls in, the ringtone rings at volume 9 first then only go to volume 10. Anyone with this problem?

What else can be done for its over consumption of battery? This thing eats batteries like crap. Anybody with this problem too?
*
fren, it is normal and if i am right if happens on all samsung phones. it's not a bug or faulty.

IMO, 2 reasons why samsung did this:

(a) don't wanna scare the user when the phone rings all of a sudden - take it as increasing ring tone mode

(b) usually, this low-> high volume is good for the speaker. same as ur amplifier-speaker at home, you don't place ur amp at highest level as this will spoil/burst your speakers. you slowly increase the volume

hope this helps

yup.. same with me.. sometimes my phone cannot open the log after misscall shown on.. many application always force close.. ram also too high..
plaining flash back to froyo and waiting official gingerbread from samsung..

sometimes i feel strange why u guys want to use custom ROM. the ori 2.2 OS installed in the SL is already OK.

"if it ain't broken, don't fix it"

just wait for the official one to be out even if it's in Aug or Sept or end of the year....my 2 cents.

Not worth wasting the time to flash here and there unless u r super free....no offence

I called M'sia Samsung Customer service for 2.3 OS. She told there is NO specific date when the OS will be out. That's all I can share.

BTW, what's after 2.3? I know 3.0 is for Tablets? No?

So, 2.3 is the last update for all android phones?

had SL for 1 mth. so far so good except the battery a bit "shot"-crazy.

sometimes when battery on standby overnight, it drain 20%

and sometimes only 3-5%

i kill all tasks and clear RAM before sleeping in all occasions.

how can this be? sad.gif

i do experience when charge not 100%, this thing happen, ok need to investigate more

check your wifi/data transmission and etc?

so far i only experienced once that battery drained 20+% overnight, now idling for maximum can be 3days plus (extremely sms will be 1&half,if continuously calling not sure, i don like to call anyway XD)
*
confirm - NO WIFI and data transmission as i've got no data plan

man, something shitty happened to my phone this morning when i woke up.

before i went to bed, there was 50%+ battery life.

this morning = ZERO. damn hell, lucky for my wife's alarm clock or i'd be late for work.

how the heck did this even happen?!?!?!
*
people says close app, close wifi.....etc

most people would have done that.

i have experienced this before, all apps closed...etc but sometimes it drained a lot of %.

my suspect:
1. smartphone...usually got this issue - have to live with this
2. the area where u place your phone might have weak signal or coverage not strong, hence, phone keeps on working
3. even u kill all running apps, there are still mini apps running at the b/ground
4. when charge battery, charge 100% then unplug, try not to charge up to 50% and then unplug

later, i will put into flight mode to solve item 2, to see whther it works

Added on August 11, 2011, 10:29 amhow come samsung phones - so far I used Jet and SL. When hearing music via headphone, put max volume still soft.

when i plug to a mp3 player (eg: philips, sony or even china brand) and set the volume half, people beside me also can hear

how ah? this goes for video played too over phone

b4 i sleep, i place my phone in flight mode - tried once ONLY.
check the battery % the next day, no drop at all smile.gif

sometimes where u place ur phone is crucial, cos phone always working whether it's 2G or 3G

for those who do not want to be disturbed at night set to flight mode...saves battery too...of course kill apps and turn off Wifi..etc

anyone know how to change the sms alert tone to our prefer song/mp3? bcoz i don't seem to find out how. =(

google a bit lar..but here is the answer.

in ur external SD card (if u have), create a folder call Media, then create a folder call Audio, then create 3 folders: alarms, notifications, ringtones

got it?

Media->Audio->alarms
Media->Audio->notifications
Media->Audio->ringtones

then dump ur mp3 there

from there u r able to select ur likings

hi there, another noob question. has anyone tried the headset provided by samsung as a handsfree before? i tried last night and i could hear my caller's voice sometimes and my caller couldn't hear my voice sad.gif
*
fren, i believe that thing is just a earphone, it is not a headset = mic + ear phone.

no wonder ur caller cannot hear u, unless u place the phone next to ur mouth and not in the pocket
