actualy xtra 400 is ok if u buy through installment at senheng or any other shop tat gives u installment plan...not much different....
anyway bought is bought,nothing canb change unless v trade in ours n lost few hundreds then spend another few hundreds to get a new different model....haha...
tongue.gif
anyway hav u ever think to get an iphone??4 or waiting' for 5.....
other android users may leave their comments too....
tq...

nope, too many iphone users. i rather go for AP incredible S wub.gif (i dont know why i like it so much), can save more $ instead of buying iphone.
but if tablet, i might consider ipad for the games nod.gif but still use android phone la

To be honest with u, i actually had really high expectations for sga's 800mhz processor

just done upgrading from DXKC1 (2.2.1) to DXKP9 (2.3.4)...i thought the official upgrade would be to 2.3.3, but anyway, quite a pleasant surprise...hahaha...

anyway, Gingerbread review time...so far, the UI is much better, however, not quite pleased with the performance...yes, it does have better video capture features, and better app management, but RAM usage are quite huge (maybe cos i install lots of apps, 100++) and it also feels laggy at times...never had this problem with Froyo...had no chance to test the wifi SOD problem, but so far, no SOD yet...

so now, trying to flash ClockWorkMode Recovery 4.0.0.9 and backup the current firmware...but somehow, i missed having Darktremor A2SD...haven't figure out how to enable it in stock Gingerbread, except to flash a new kernel...
*
rclxm9.gif 2.3.4!!!!
but, high ram usage? feels laggier than froyo?
froyo already quite laggy, this is worse....dont know should update or not.....

i hope to hear more reviews from you guys notworthy.gif

just updated my phone to the official GB... here's what i notice:
- User interface is much cleaner and nicer.

- internal memory space has been VERY well managed (compared when i first got froyo with this phone.) froyo i only have 30MB for space for my apps but now i have a whopping 160MB.

- SOD. I can't make a comparison for SOD because previously i didn't encounter any. sorry.

- keyboard is different as well. so far it's only aesthetic.

- in terms of phone speed, i realized it's much smoother but when i open my picture gallery, it takes much longer to load.

- there's a new icon 'Download'. i think it's to track your download activities.

- battery management is still under examination. seems ok so far. will keep updated.

cheerios...

from 30mb shoot to 160mb? with the same amount of apps installed?

for the phone speed, is games smoother as well?

When i first got my phone, i only had 30mb left for any additional apps. 120mb was used for existing apps in the phone. Now after changing to gb, the existing apps installed only takes up 26mb. Ace max storage only until 162mb... I could be wrong.

As for games, i have no tried hvga games yet.
*
I still have 30mb of free space despite already installed around 100 apps or more including widgets, running on stock froyo hmm.gif why is yours so little when ur on froyo? Did u uninstall updates of maps, samsung apps, market.....?

u using app2sd?

Yes, but I use it only 2 clear app cache. Those apps that can be put into sd card will be moved to sd card by default automatically, NO NEED app2sd. Isnt all ace like this? Why u guys still say need 2 use app2sd 2 move moveable apps into sd card? My ace will auto move moveable apps into sd WITHOUT using app2sd. Are our aces different rclxub.gif ?

I got the same issue as you only about 25MB left with only about 20 apps installed. I discovered that the log files consumed the internal memory. After deleting all the log files I got 120MB of internal memory and still on froyo. If you are wondering what happen to your internal memory, go to /data/log directory to check whether log files are taking up the memory. Your need root explorer or similar to access your internal memory.

How come I cant find log directory? Whats root explorer? rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

sorry for confusing you MjMax15. my last comment on the router thingy was more for the other ppl who has issues with the wifi connection disconnecting with their phones. Nothing to do with your USB issue.

back to your USB issue. do you have another spare USB cable you can try using? I recall i had a similiar issue with a motorola phone before ( used a sony cable and couldn't charge).

else.. i have the Samsung PC Studio software as well. It might contain USB drivers if you're keen to try out i can upload it.

for camera, i agree the stock camera app is not so good. I use camera 360 instead. My avatar is a sample from it with lomo effect.


Added on August 31, 2011, 1:15 pm

mine is like that too.will auto-move the apps if it's movable to SD Card.

Then why others are not lyk that? I dont understand... rclxub.gif

ditto~ I updated to GB and noticed
1. screen took 2 second to light up when in standby mode
2. can't connect to modem even its able to scan it. restarting modem solve the issue (experienced once after updating to gb)
3. don't know if this is significantly important or not, but i do think the vibrating while tying is... weirder after updating =P
4. font appear to be... "crisper"

5. relatively smoother actually after updating to gb
6. dolphin hd is working for me though

This is what I noticed after 5 hours of using it

smoother than froyo in gaming or what?
