hello ace users  notworthy.gif

i recently bought this phone for rm980 (standard package = 2gb sd, charger, n so on)

at first the phone seems okay but..............

1st prob
today i don't know why the ram is almost at its max..i tried to clear the memory in the task manager but it frees only a little..then i delete some apps but still the same thing..at last i shut down the phone and wait for a while and turn it on again..thank god the ram consume lesser than before..what could cause this prob? is it the monitoring apps? or is it something else?

2nd prob
is anti virus apps is necessary for android? (im new to android)

3rd prob
when i first got the phone i log into the google account and download some apps..i dont know why the phone keeps asking me for password in the notification area..how to disable this? i have disable the pocket data and background data..

4th prob
i cannot get my swype function worked out? how to configure it?

5th prob
i know rooting void the warranty but is possible to unroot after u have root the phone? if im not mistaken, there is an unroot function on SOC 1.7 right?

this is my first android phone and i really want to get the best out of it  icon_question.gif

Not sure if my answers are any accurate but I'll try to answer the questions i know as best as I can...

Prob 1: You can try to download the app called Advanced Task Killer, I found that to be very very useful indeed compared to the Task manager

Prob 2: I am not very sure myself, hope to come across a good anti-virus for this

Prob 4: Tap and hold the compose message box and a window will pop open giving u an option to choose whether you wish to use the Swype keyboard or Samsung keyboard

Hope it helps!

There are a couple of people selling Ace's SP for very reasonable price, like AskarPerang and lhongwuh~
My firmware is the stock firmware as I didn't update it yet too. Haha!
The problem I faced so far is the sudden hangup issue. Which irritates me a lot -.-

The best approach to solve hang up problem is back to basic. Factory reset and run stock apps only. If the problem did not go away, then send for warranty. If it gone, some of your apps are causing it.

1) Try not to multitask much.... Ace's RAM is very limited... and android is true multitask (3rd party apps can run simultaneously)
always kill tasks whenever you feel like it... use task killer pro if you like a one click kill....

2) I dont think so... Android is Linux based... No .exe virus can cause any damage on it. Unless someone codes a virus to attack Linux and yet you downloaded it... then there is possibility... so far i dont think anti virus is needed... as long as you use normal apps, trusted, and check the comments before downloading any... you should be fine...

3) Not sure, never encounter this on my gf's Ace when setup google account....

4) touch + hold on text field... or Settings -> languages and inputs (or something like that) explore around more.. anyway swype is slow =x

5) yes you can unroot anytime... if you use SOC that is.. as of the version im not sure... perhaps the latest will do?

Good luck =)

I thought SME provides 2 years warranty under Samsung while authorised dealers provide 1 year warranty under Samsung?

Hi Guys...a noob question~
I saw galaxy ace is using the same chipset(Qualcomm MSM7227 chipset) with LG optimus one, but how come 1 is 800mhz and one is 600mhz...
Does it mean galaxy ace is overclocked?
