A certain features not available, such as location tracking. Not sure if the remote wipe still works, I didn't try or too reluctant to try.

Makes me itchy. Now still reluctant to install stuff, cause I m expecting official GB to come in.

Where's the announcement by Samsung? Has it appear on Kies (I know what some of you gonna say, lol)?

Another joke by HTC? Can record but cannot playback?

Hardware spec seems the same... hmm...

It comes with FroYo first, meaning it can't do 3G video call by its nature.

If upgraded to Gingerbread, the kernel has support for video call. So I think natively (AOSP), the phone can make video call utilizing the front camera, by right. (by right la)

Something to share with fellow SGS users.

Was playing with Google Track app and these are the comparison between internal GPS and external GPS. Those that are serious about GPS, should buy 1 bluetooth external unit. Now can pair with "Bluetooth GPS" app. Will auto lock and enable bluetooth from the app itself. Very good!

Ext GPS:

Oh ya, ext GPS got accuracy up to 2metres as viewed from Maps app.

Didn't do any fix, managed to get locking within 30 seconds. Doesn't feel as fast as back in FroYo though.

Obviously Samsung did something to the original ROM. Do note that there are variants of SGS don't come with 3G video call capability.

Doesn't Hardcore's Speedmod incorporates Voodoo's ext4 implementation?

I would love to have more and more RAM on my device.

As I was using it on Friday evening, tracking my journey home using Google Track. Then I had my browser opened with 4 pages. 2 Lowyat pages, 1 page was a photo and another was to another forum, with plenty of photos in it. Then I had the Maps application opened while watching my progress on the journey.

So what I did was, I tried to set my destination, hoping to get an ETA and distant to travel. When I tried to do a search and typed in the destination name, the phone jammed. Waited 5 mins, Android asked me if I would like to FC the Maps. So I clicked No. In a short while, I gained control of my Maps again. This time, I hand itchy. I clicked on the dropdown item of the search list. The phone jammed again for another 5 minutes or so... finally, it rebooted itself.

Yup, I lost all the webpages. Luckily Google Track reinitiated itself and track recording mode was retained. Unfortunately, part of the track has missing info due to the hanging of the phone earlier. So I had to quickly re-establish BT connection back to my ext GPS device.

Holux.

Try installing the latest Kies from Samsung website.

Just reinstalled my Windows XP and it works on first try.

After how many hours of using the data network without locking the phone (auto screen off)?

I never turn off my data network, at most set to Flight mode during sleep.

Maybe there's a bug in XXJVK's off data network. I'll give it a try someday.

BTW, tested this and it works! Now I can Check-In using Latitude.

Dont use adb push, cause I cant get it to work as well.

Copy the signed apk into your int sdcard first. Then follow the steps until uninstall Streetview. After that, use root explorer/terminal emulator to COPY the apk file into /system/app/. Restart phone. Then you'll have Maps working again.

Dont bother with Street view. Doesnt seem to work for me.

Hi bro, I just tried and tested the disable data network thingy. I disabled it for about 1 minute, then re enable it back. No problem with connection. Could it be your network area?

Take the signed file. You can try the unsigned one. But since the signed one works for me, I didn't bother to verify if the unsigned one works.

I'm on XXJVK ROM, that's 2.3.3, right?

Added on April 4, 2011, 9:19 amYup, tested Navigation to office this morning. Unfortunately, it keeps asking me to enable GPS even when I am already connected to ext GPS unit. If only I can disable the message box to ask me to enable GPS, then it would be perfect.

Yes, of course it will work.

If you run Google Track, you'll know how accurate your internal GPS is. The lines looked like dancing. lol.

Dunno about yours, but mine definitely very bad. Was inside a car, sitting by the window though, when the line dances.

That's depending on pure EXT2 or EXT2 loopback (running on top of RFS).

Just encountered my first glitch on XXJVK after few days of using it. And it's quite obvious it was caused by the music player, cause last few days never kena this. Only just now I decided to try the music player.

What happened was, the screen went into sleep mode but can't came back on, no matter which buttons I pressed. So I tried to call myself, the call can get through, no display also. Had to press and hold power button to force reboot.

Have you got it right?

Don't need to rename to anything actually. After copied into /system/app/, just reboot right after.

If still cannot, delete the apk from /system/data/. Download the latest Maps 5.2.1 from Market (or some other sources, cause I think can't download from Market also, not sure). After installed it. Then go back to TB, clear data & uninstall.

Then repeat the step of coping the resign file into /system/app/, then reboot.

This time should work.

Somehow I got the resign one worked. After soooooo many tries.
