Added on June 6, 2011, 1:06 amI think it was the fix patch that i used that made the pics relatively good, but most of the time I don't want to use my 5800 for anything much xD;
i hate taking with flash so maybe that's why my pics are 50-50

you can switch it back to "Mount R/W" even after you entered into the /cust/maxis/my/app folder.

the button wasn't there anymore though
is it because i'm using Root explorer 2.12?

it could be.
mine is v2.15

but G5 do have its own pros such as smaller phone n easier to fit inside the pocket, have radio, and also some customization of the UI from samsung.

Thanks for the vital information.
Sigh...this is such a letdown.

There is a fine tool in gsm arena that allows us to check camera quality of some phones.
oddly enough 5800 isnt in there, so i'll use 5530 as a replacement. (their quality is pretty much the same)

http://www.gsmarena.com/piccmp.php3?idType...2&idPhone3=3252

the link i provide above compares 5530, x6 and N8 (i use N8 as a benchmark, its the best cam in the market now, about digicam quality)
(remember to set "scale to 3MP" to have a fair comparison.)

the 5800/5530 is very bad, check out the color area, there's noise even in bright condition,
and the words at the ruler are unreadable.
That's what i mean by lausy quality.

Still couldn't remove it, but i haven't downloaded the latest root explorer yet.

Anyway, I just installed Go Launcher and.... why does it keep hiding my phone calls?
Or is it now extra sensitive and reacting to my ear??

Maybe I should invest in some handsfree >_>;;

Really tempting to root.

ic. once u install latest root explorer, let me know if u r able to remove it..
btw.. can help to try n remove the stock doc to go?

Added on June 6, 2011, 11:02 ambro.. u plan to root using which methods?

Hiapk and modaco methods look simple to understand. But my U8800 is so far so good, maybe next time only I root

My advise would be wait for custom roms to be more mature for Ideos X5 as rooting itself wont bring too much impact performance wise, MIUI also collecting votes for developement of this phone, just patient.

Bro after root, how to move games and apps to SD card?

i wanna root juz to remove those useless games n app.

FYI RRP is RM899..so rm40 for the 16gb is quite cheap right?

finally my wife agree with my recommendation to get this phone but i still can't decide to get this phone locally at RM899 (no freebies but with local 2 years warranty..since there is no Huawie SC in Kota Bharu) or just get from LYN seller at RM850 + free postage + some freebies..i think worth at least RM50

Lowyat Official Review

Apparently our phone has been reviewed by Lowyat! Check it out and see what you have to say about it!

If you don't mind me being frank.... The review sticks...........
1. Explain the bad points first........... Camera...... Materials for the design of the phone
2. Said as if its a ARM 6 phone (My opinion) ............ I mean when you say <1 Ghz, you better say its still can run flash... Its good they said the phone was lagless...
3. Graphic card? No mention of it... Didn't mention can play games smoothly or not......
4. Almost Clean Android - I see no mention of this.....
5. Benchmarks? I know benchmarks doesn't say much.... But for a budget phone that can beat its higher priced competitors in performance, why didn't you mention it?
6. Where is the battery life comments ar?

I can go on and on... But this review was lacking (to put it nicely)

no need to get fired up on this. We hv been using it for quite some time.
we know more bout the pros n cons of the phone compare to them

I just got a sony ericson bluetooth handsfree today. Tested with both my nokia xm5800 n ideos x5. It was crystal clear on my 5800 but on the x5 it sounds like cheap walkie talkie radio!!! Whats up with that??

also, how do u guys feel the sound is like when making a phone call? im afraid my phone maybe a bit faulty.....
