Then I guess stock will work fine for you ^^..  tbh, I just want the themes some ROMs provide.. 

I use

1. Go EX Launcher
2. GO SMS

So already can theme inside tongue.gif  Just want the battery icons on top and the extended boot menu provided by custom roms.  The only thing I don't like about CR is that deodexed browsers lag in general when scrolling.
*
You make me wanna go back to stock browser....nooooo! drool.gif

However, I am having some issues with Go EX launcher and not sure if 2.3.4 is causing it >.<

Yeah it *can* be fixed...  Just that its a hassle tongue.gif

@KLHC
Just download VRTweaks and select the fixed browser option inside.


Added on July 11, 2011, 9:59 amI guess I just like the UI of the stock android browser.  Never really did like Dolphin all that much.

Yup use VRT but that applies only on VR1.4. There is none browser fix in 2.0 though. Dont use stock browser so... smile.gif

Hi Nicregi, mind telling me wat is soft & hard reset? how can i do it? Sorry a bit noob here as tis is my 1st smartphone.

Sorry late reply. Here you go:

When you want to pass on your phone to some else it is a good idea that you wipe out all the data on your phone so that no one can get access to your personal data. You could also perform a reset if you device is frozen and not responding to your command.

Note: Performing the below actions will erase all your personal data, so if there is any data that you would like to keep please back them up first so that later you could restore them if you like.

If you are ready, then here's how:

Software Reset

1. Go to the Home screen.
2. Go to Settings.
3. Select Privacy.
4. Select Factory Data reset.
5. Select Reset Phone.
6. Select Erase Everything.

You devices should be resetting now.

Hardware Key Reset

1. Switch off the phone. Pull out the battery if you device is not responding.
2. Now press and hold down the volume up + volume down button. Then press and release the Home/Power button.
3. Next the phone will present a menu for you to choose, select Clear Storage.
4. Confirm if you want to go ahead.

Alternative

Also you could try to key in *2767*3855# and press dial.

Anyone can help me on this?
[attachmentid=2324067]

This is what happen to me. You can try and it works for me like charm.

1. Make sure it is rooted.
2. Go to Titanium Backup (TB) and backup maps.
3. Uninstall maps
4. Go to street view & uninstall also.
5. Reboot
6. Copy the map / navi (link in my siggy if you can't find) and choose the one WITHOUT resign (resign didn't work for me that's why) - copy into your SD
7. Use Super Manager (since it is free) and move that file you just copied to your System under app. Do this by pressing the back space
8. Inside apps folder, just paste.
9. Reboot and done smile.gif

Tip: at #7, when the option comes out to R/O or R/W choose R/W

Okay this will work now. Quite sure of it smile.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

been using it for 3 days now on stock rom and getting the hang of it. couldn't find similar posts about these questions but:

1) is it normal for messaging, music player (perhaps more?) to not shut down by themselves and stay under Active Applications?
2) i've just created a samsung account and try software update but it showed no updates. mine is at I9100DXKF1 / 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF1 / GINGERBREAD.XWKF1. is this the latest or should i be updating my firmware through Kies?

p/s: just bought a transparent light brown Modish silicon casing+SP and imho it looks really good on the phone  rclxms.gif
*
1. Not sure >.<

2. There is link on Page 1 on the latest updates. Mine is KG 1. KG 1 is the latest of all if I am not wrong.

1. You need to Root to enable that.

2. After root, you can start moving those to your SD smile.gif
