Welcome to the 1st official threads for the newly launched model in malaysia the Samsung Galaxy S Plus (GT-I9001)

Samsung Galaxy S Plus (GT-I9001)


Get this babeh around RM1299

AP sets around RM1000+/- depends on the shop / seller / gifts bundled.

I have Samsung SGS II bought last week and S Plus bought yesterday.

Tested Samurai II on S Plus impressive not a single lagg, there may have some spikes but overall is superb.

S Plus probably the fastest single clocked smartphone for android in the market with a impressive 1.4ghz.

Anyone wanted to flash please post guide for it , im not good at flashing

This phone is worth buying for ppl looking for the price around RM1300+/-

Is it root able for now? Can't find any guide for it. Where do you buy AP set for RM1350?

AP sets RM1350 is the most minimun prices.

Some close phone owner shops offered me RM1430.

Ipoh area

plan to get this phone before raya. hope everything goes well

where can i buy this phone in ipoh . .??

My brother just get one from SenQ today at RM1499 with UOB credit card. Not sure if this phone has the same GPS issue as in it's sibling Galaxy S.

Which Senq your brother get it. I have checked at Senq Shah Alam but still not available...

It's at Batu Pahat, Johor. I've seen it in SenQ Queensbay Mall, Penang too. I was told that it only arrives 1 or 2 days ago. You should check other branch.

Just bought 1 at SenQ Taiping... Only one stock arrive... Buying Galaxy SL for my wife there too...

For those looking for Screen Protector+casing for Galaxy S Plus... For the casing i can say that Aftermarket Fake Leather casing for SL fit nicely on Galaxy S Plus. However... The Screen protector for galaxy s the clear fir nicely on Galaxy S Plus...

Cheers..

i want change my set at seng heng if it was my bad luck

planning to buy this phone... wanna ask if this phone can fit into any Galaxy S's 3rd party casing? i read review somewhere that it has the same dimension as 'S'

new user on Galaxy S Plus come join, need more user here

anyway the phone is superb.

we all agree right? hehe

go check @senq subang perdana..got 1 stock...i saw last 2 days when i bought galaxy tab...same price with galaxy tab n acer iconia tab..RM1599...2 years warranty..come with gingerbread...nice phone but i prefer 7" display...more gooding when running tegra games...

Hi guys,

Bought a galaxy s plus (AP set) this afternoon. Just realized this phone is from samsung electronic Romania. The user manual only in Romania language. Is this phone OK?

No comment on AP sets. Buying a smartphone strongly recommend original sets. unless you good at flashing.

I think your sets will be fine. no worries bro.

where can i buy this samsung galaxy s plus in normal handphone shop?is it available?

i dont hope to buy it at sengheng and senq, because i wish to get cheaper price to own it =)

i think u guys can root tru oneclick root smt or gingerbreak .

how much is this fon for ori set?

Anyone can recommend good casing for this phone.
Just got my hand on it yesterday. Impressive speed compared to my old IP 3gs.

Just started getting to know android phone.
So far its nice and easy..

I'm looking for good casing and screen protector too. The free screen protector that come with the phone is terrible.

most of the Galaxy S / SL case or screen protector fit nicely into S Plus.

For casing probably a little big space but not much. Fit nicely

Just drop buy in a shop and test before you buying it.

lets make this thread alive, come join all SGS Plus user

i've bought casing for my SGSP, mine is fit perfectly, bought at Sunway Pyramid RM40 with screen protector

some shop said they dont have for this model, but some got

this is minor phone? not very active ar this thread? i would to know more about this phone

Just bought my sg.sp.. xD so far.is good

how bout battery life...

Battery life not bad. It can last about one and a half day with moderate usage.
Want to ask something... The file size of the pictures taken with 5mp superfine quality only about 600-900kb. Is that normal?

count me in on sgp user list..thanks...anybody got news about custom rom?

that is the first thing i notice with my SGSP, i've asked many SGSP users about this, they also get same like that, still finding the explanation about this

new user here..add me to the list

Relieved to hear that. At least mine is not a faulty phone. Maybe the compression in the camera firmware is overly aggressive.

need more honest review(not fanboism) from users here, anyone care to give?

So far so good on my sgs plus.. Getting Momax expower battery i9000 to fit in my sgs plus.. xD white colour sumore.. yeppiiee

Do you guys have problem with gps? Mine seems to have problem

i start to getting sd card error...sd card damages error...already tested on both kingmax class 10 8gb and sandisk 4gb..already reformat bot on pc and handphone but the problem still occured..
- next is it has tendency to hang itself..it will not start when sd card is plug in on the deviced itself...it start to getting annoyed with this brick...sometime it lagging..super slow..just like it sleep..gonna sort it out..gonna try other rom..currently used I9001XXKF8 ## rom..
the HD game that i currently manage to run...

yah,me too.not many nice case for sgs now, their market only for sgs2 since that fon famous now.using this fon for several days,kind of satisfied with its speed.not so much different with my sgs2 speed when playing game also not as warm as sgs2.sure this fon will be hot in market in several weeks more

any casing that can fit to samsung galaxy s is also fit to our phone..there ovious reason i pick this phone is temperature..well we live in asia..a very hot temperature..who it may burn ur processor during gaming on mid day~~hahaha...but really eager to root and custom this phone...

just got my galaxy s plus 2 days ago. impressive speed, super nice display! love it! its just that the casing is very hard to find lorr in kuantan... i've search everywhere in the mall =(

after googling around..the most apk that work with SGSP is APK's from HTC desire HD (due to CPU and GPU hardware matching...)FAST 5 game is offset the screen~~ ...for casing samsung galaxy s accesory shoudl fit in on our SGSP..

Guess no exposure then. Last weekend my colleague went to Digital Mall to look for this model, cannot find. Ended up with SGSL.

its look like yours rom from europe....are ur phone Ap Set ??


this phone is only selling at all SengHeng/SenQ and Celcom retail shops for Ori SME set RM1599..... others normal handphone shop didnt sell this model but some got sell for Ap set not Ori... mine get from Celcom HQ

Added on August 22, 2011, 1:15 pmhow is the gps??

This post has been edited by annoymous1234: Aug 22 2011, 01:15 PM

hi , can anyone suggest me which one should i buy ?

galaxy S or galaxy S +

confuse

samsung galaxy S 16gb rm1300 galaxy s+ 8gb rm1300 but the s+ only 8gb lor..

help me please

the cpu of S+ is overlock though..

if u wan to do custom rom all that, S should be better as S+ is still new there might not be much. even xda there dont have S+ section if not misaken

well S+vs S
SGS:
1)custom rom availability
2)memory is much more bigger
3)choose S if u really want custom it
SGS+:
1)lack of custom rom n no rooting available yet
2)memory is just 8gb
3)GPU is 1.4GHZ+adreno gpu
4) pick S+ if want the latest gadget on your pocket

is the gps prob still happen to this phone?

@helo
maybe not cos this phone using entirely different hardware Qualcomm's snapdragon chipset while the old galaxy S samsung their own Hummingbird chipset... correct me if i'm wrong.. Now waiting for XDA Dev making custom Rom and Rooting for us here

i tried once before using phone own gps navigation (not papago x5 or etc) working just fine to me lah....
soon i will tried using papago x5...

already testing papago in the morning..it was good...100% the GPS is functioning~~

argghhh this phone should have camera flash. its almost perfect!

This post has been edited by annoymous1234: Aug 24 2011, 02:08 PM

LED flash and LED notification.

@mc_guiver

wanted to get for myself

check your PM

pm me too, i wan my papago x5

totally agree!! or shuld wait for galaxy r....

what's the price now for galaxy s and s+ ? which has better battery life ? Using 3rd party battery will significantly increase the battery life ?

@zzzxtreme
For Galaxy S+ - RM15++ Ori SME set selling at SenQ/SengHeng and Celcom BlueCube

outside shop selling Ap set RM13++ to RM14++ (No Ori Set ATM )

Galaxy S - RM12++ to RM13++ Ap set only cos this old model..no more ori set

S+ have slightly battery life 1650ma then S have 1500ma

mine can stand 16+ hours usage (3g off,30min wifi every 5 hours,gps off,20% brightness)

3rd party battery didnt use so dont how is it goes....hehehe

how to differentiate between AP set and ORI set??

p/s: sorry for the noob question

Yeppiee!! Just get my Momax expower 2700mah sam galaxy s i9000.. already tested on my galaxy s plus i9001 and its fits superbly!!!!

This post has been edited by Raralu85: Aug 24 2011, 09:10 PM

seems like more user is coming in

hey where u get sgs 16gb 1300??
i ask at local fon shop,,,they all sell 14++

lets the keep the tread clean..just shoot me a PM..

@mc_guiver how do u like the phone so far? got any problem?

to be honest guys...i dont feel slow when standing side by side with sgs2...even in gaming...asphalt 6...nova..starfront.gt racing..hawk..fishing king..hero of sparta..assasin creed..avatar...let golf..GOF2..shrek kart..all of them...only asphalt 6 need an update
for our sgsp due to compatibility...the apk for s2 (HD game is running smoothly after downloading the data..can play smoothly...the phone is responsive..the battery drainage is OK...after flashing with 2.2.4 ROM..skype working flawlessly...the speaker is not loud as gt-i5500..GPS function is ok..
but the bigger downside is..i cant root this phone..so the HD game i need to install is limited..custom rom should make the phone is awesome..(my GT-i550 is more fun..because u can customize it.. ..)accessory already available which is from SGS accessories..the camera i am not sure yet..previously when i using 2.2.3 i have an issue that it will tend to restart under high load (due to gaming) but now it all ok now..no problemo or bug...but sad i cant reach the core of this phone yet...
and live happily ever after (just like Cinderella story~~~

i'll be getting this phone this weekend no heating issue right?

No at all.. Been using it 24hour for wifi (current using momax expower 2700mah battery.. weeeeeee ), No heating issue..

maximum load only can be achieved via gaming..testing the gt racing academy...so far so good..if this phone were rooted i can show the battery log of my phone..include the temprature log..it just warm..not became hot and scare u that it will burn ur deviced..just like warm of nokia phone to be honest..

do we need to find a specific installer to install those games?

about that yes..or maybe..for the time being i used apk for samsung s2 is compatible..never try yet apk HD game for tegra GPU..i am happy to help community..just drop me a PM...

thanks dude. ^^

Tomorrow to be SGS Plus owner.. Yeah..

First timer using android phone. Light me a guide yeah??

same same

btw mc are u using AP set? i was thinking lets say if i buy AP set which is not from asia, does that mean that i can get update faster cause my product code is from overseas and they get update faster than asia?

ok. that was something i couldn't answer. btw, yeah, i'm buying AP only.

for me..it doesnt matter AP or SME set..because i will update when the is newly available rom with fix bug...AP and SME is just different waranty claim procedure...my hand so itchy to explore and customize this phone...
the last time..i was with samsung gt-i5500..it fun if u can custom it..(but the possibility to brick it is there...)
i dont wait for update..i am searchng for update..hahaha..new member club of SGSP...let discuse..will help if i able to..

Still learning n trying to understand about all Android operation, custom ROM.
Of course a discussion is a must. Help each others.
