Hi,

I am a newbie in android phone and currently using cslmi350

correct me if I am wrong, the internal memory of this phone is pretty low (32MB?) and can only installed a few apps/games.

Although it can support external SD card, but not all apps/games can move to sd card. Am I right?

Not Memory than is rom or internal phone storage, CSL Mi350 has 512MB off Memory and Rom, The Android OS is take about 300MB ++,
So, You only see About 150MB Rom only. Now you only see 32MB cause by you has install other application and games in the phone, it take out the Rom. You move the application and Game to SD card also, than will be need so file in the Rom, after you move to SD Card, still has some space take out from rom.

What I know on this,
512MB Rom or low - This phone only can use as low application and games only, just install the item you need to use only to get more rom or application and games. For Games, just install Game you need to play, if no playing, just uninstall it.

For who want install more application and games, you has to get 1GB rom or more Android phone, The more Rom is more batter.

I am thinking of getting this phone. How many custom ROMs are there out there for this phone? I intend to get an Android to play with custom ROMs

hi, does anyone encountered the phone will auto reboot itself?

My friend and my unit will auto reboot by itself few times a day. After reboot, sometimes it cannot detect appl already installed in SD card. need to manual reboot until it can shows all installed appl.

btw, the phone is not rooted. There is around 45MB internal storage left.

i live in singapore and always going to JB, therefore i need a dual sim phone.

bought this Mi350, the only word can describe this phone is "suck". If you have an option, DO NOT buy it, it is a pretty shitty phone.

I bought it only 2 months.

1) auto restart often

2) auto off very very often, i wondered how come no messeges or push mails coming thro' and found out this shitty phone was already off completely.

3) after restart, it cannot mount the application in SD card, I have to use the USB cable to activate. Do we often carry USB cable and computer by using a stupid phone?

4) it takes about 20-30 minutes to serach a network, if I am in JB, my Starhub line will take very long to connect. When I go back to Singapore, it takes 10-15 minutes to reconnect back to Starhub.

5) Basically the Network Serach is not working at all. I am curious what kind of CSL engineers dare to design this kind of stupid phone?

6) Very often, while I am in JB, the Digi internet cannot log in, I have to restart this stupid Mi350 to activate the network.

Conclusion:

DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE. IT WILL MAKE YOU CRAZY.

I BOUGHT AT RM699, WHO ELSE WANT TO BUY IT, 2 MONTHS OLD ONLY.

AS MENTIONED EARLIER, THIS IS A SHITTY PHONE.

after approximately 2 months of using this phone...

Pros:
- dual sim android phone.
- cheap?

cons
- underpowered
android phone are now going to 800MHz - 1.2GHz range for the processor, and having 600MHz processor will make this phone feel outdated. worse, this is DUAL SIM phone, which put more stress on the phone.
take time to change orientation, so most of the time, i just lock the orientation.
- small internal memory
512mbs is total memory, but available memory is about 158mbs, but with some basic apps (better launcher, better keyboard, widget) u will left with only 40-80mbs, which is very limited. so u can only install several apps only, and most of the apps, you have to transfer to sd card.
- low resolution
- insensitive screen
sadly, despite advanced of touchscreen, this phone screen is not sensitive. even worse if you have big finger.
- unstable
if you leave this phone without much change, the phone is just fine. but it's will get unstable when you start installing multiple apps, change the launcher, keyboard widgets and what not, and root.
- limited support
it's hard to find discussion on this phone, unlike mi300 and mi410. no ROM yet found on the internet, no update yet found in any forum. this phone only have one twin, which is viewsonic v350 (unlike mi300 and mi410 which have several twin)

other
- battery
full use (games + radio + wifi) - approx 3 hours
minimal use - up to 2 days

list of games
fieldrunner HD - take time to load, but rarely lag during games.
tap tap revenge 4 - *not recommended* take time to load, lag (lag is a very big issue here)
cut the rope - no problem

in the end, there is yet a dual sim android phone that reliable. u might end up using 2 phone.

can't agree more, being a student, im stuck with this phone. got no money to change to other phone.

true.

doesn't happen to me

very true. especially when you have many apps installed. to avoid this, restart the phone with charger on. if the problem still persist, remove both simcard, restart the phone, wait about 30-45 minutes, then your apps will be load back. then when you want to restart your phone with simcard, make sure restart with charger on.

agree


in the end, it's up to you. with this price, if you really want an android phone, better buy single sim phone.
