i know... jus wondering if there are any color except these 2 in the market... cos my white skin cover got some scratch...

i think the aftermarket back cover should available in malaysia...
hence SGA quite common everywhere, i think wont difficult for u to get the spare part for SGA...

Yep.. Very popular nowadays.. Many dealer are pushing ACE as budget phone.. But sadly we still considered a legacy device on XDA forum.. Which leads to lack of developer for custom roms..

the aftermarket spare part manufacturer just looking on the number of hp users only lo... example iphone 4, everyone owned it and spare part are everywhere even though no able to root or without custom rom... haha...

but custom rom issues is different lo, i think only around 20% of total number of user will do it only...

White original cover RM18

Hi , new to phone section have , having interest here on Galaxy Ace , been asking at phone buying section recommended this phone.
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry43924421

1. Wanted to know about warranty , heard that Seng Heng or Senq got 3 years warranty is it true ? is it provide by samsung ?

2. Someone sell at RM 800 at garage sales , is ap set or ori set ? worth getting ?

3. I went to the gsmarena http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_ace_s5830-3724.php shows it only have 158 MB of storage ? is it really that low of storage space ? I though every touch screen phone got 2-4GB storage ? And how much Ram it got ?

4. How is the LCD screen looking and viewing angle ? i know it has very less pixel for 3.5 inch , how good is the viewing angle , can tolerate ?

5. Under the sun light , how well is the display screen ? will it get dark out or hard to see at outdoor ? can tolerate ?

6. Normally how long is the battery life last ? let say no wifi no 3g or gps , just for normal call and music/radio ?


Sorry for too much question , just wanted to confirm before getting one.
Thank you

1. Wanted to know about warranty , heard that Seng Heng or Senq got 3 years warranty is it true ? is it provide by samsung ?
1 years by SME, 2 years by Sen Heng

2. Someone sell at RM 800 at garage sales , is ap set or ori set ? worth getting ?
Ask the seller warranty from whom, if from SME then is original

3. I went to the gsmarena http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_ace_s5830-3724.php shows it only have 158 MB of storage ? is it really that low of storage space ? I though every touch screen phone got 2-4GB storage ? And how much Ram it got ?
SGA is low-mid end phone, the internal memory more than enough for u if u didnt install much apps into smart phone... and SGA are no 100% usable if without external memory... so if those smart phone with 4-8Gb, it can run without external memory... Ram about 278mb, my usage around 50% only for now... internal memory about 180mb, my usage about 35%... more than enough for me...

4. How is the LCD screen looking and viewing angle ? i know it has very less pixel for 3.5 inch , how good is the viewing angle , can tolerate ?
depend on your requirements how DETAIL required... better test it before buy at Samsung show room

5. Under the sun light , how well is the display screen ? will it get dark out or hard to see at outdoor ? can tolerate ?
depend on your requirements how CLEAR required... better test it before buy at Samsung show room

6. Normally how long is the battery life last ? let say no wifi no 3g or gps , just for normal call and music/radio ?
my battery full charged when Sunday morning, no 3G, less surf net, no music, no radio, 1-2 time photo shooting, just answer some incoming calls... my battery life left 50% within 2.5 days usage

Thank you for the fast reply .

At Sen Heng , it cover 2 years warranty RM 899 but at garage sales selling RM 800 only 1 year.Which one to choose ? how about you ?

Oh , about storage, seldom install application , most of web facebook and some news .btw , heard that there's possible to make a voice call using google talk via wifi without using any $$ .It is possible ?

The sunlight case , i dont think Samsung show room allow me to take out the phone and go outdoor under the sunlight.So, on your preference how is it ?

Thanks ago , hope i didn't ask to much.

i getting RM800 instead, bcos i may change phone after 2-3 years usage...
but if planned to use SGA for long and free hassle, then go for sen hen instead...

about VOIP i have no idea... but i think u cant rely wireless broadband for VOIP as the speed wasnt up to expectation unless the area full covered with 3G...

so far, my SGA screen still view-able under sunlight, so i have no idea how particular you are...

thanks for the link.. but those original cover is only by Hong Kong..

Do those normal shop sell original cover?

So last few question , what's the precaution or things need to check before made a payment ? normally what was inside a box ? charger cable and cd ?
and guide to make sure it's new unit and not defected unit?

just ensure the handphone box provided by hp seller is still SEALED condition and break the seal right in front of you...

i have bad experience that hp seller give me a handphone box seem peeled off a little and questioned him is that a NEW unit? he say yes, i pay money and ciao... so i do further check inside my car, realized that only have handphone, battery, CD and manual inside the box... but no charger, no USB, no extra back cover and no ear pieces... gosh.... i pissed off and back to the shop immediately... i suspected that is demo / display unit and i insist request for another SEALED unit instead, i check hp IMEI match with the box and left there asap...

no idea how the warranty registration done by seller side... but as long as i have the official receipt is enough...

What's wrong with Hong Kong? Arrives at your doorstep in about 1 week.

Anyone having issues with Whatsapp after flashing to VillainROM 1.0? Mine can't get passed the verification for some reason...

then the phone will not be so cantik.......

let say, if we upgrade to GB, is it we still need to root to install apps inside the ext memory?

So do you know how to identified whether it's AP set or Ori set ? How about the screen ? is it Gorilla Glass display or normal display ?

jz ask the seller bout the warranty...
if the warranty is by SME, then ori...
if not the SGA is AP

no pain, no gain mah...



yup... just ask the seller...
otherwise the manual have a short guide to register warranty to SME via SMS...
it is original if come with the small pieces or paper...

SGA is Gorilla Glass... but still a gorilla will die too if shot by gun...
