But all those X8, Xperia x10 mini phone no update, stuck with eclair.. Samsung update all Galaxy mini, Fit,GIo, Ace,S, S2..  all also got update.. All my X8 friend RAAAAGGGGGEEE!! Lolz!
*
The X10 series are all old phones. The Galaxy series are all new phones (except for S, but that's an ex-flagship with a huge following). Guess SE isn't interested to update old phones, even the new W8 uses Eclair, recycling the X8 OS. But this is besides the point, I was complaining about the roll-out speed. Our region X10 got the firmware about 3 days after roll-out, while the Ace roll-out started more than 2 weeks ago and we still hasn't got anything sad.gif

should no problem for 2 days if u no heavy usage in gaming and surfing via 3G...  smile.gif
otherwise go for Huawei ideos X5...

Agreed! 3G and gaming seems to drain battery like crazy. Other than that, the battery actually seems pretty decent...

i'm still hoping that this sod are more to firmware related than hardware related... back with froyo a lot of sod then 1st custom rom a few sod 2nd  and third custom rom once a while now on V2X-2B havent seen one yet and hopefully wont ever please... i'm testing with my ace for three nights in row now with wifi on usually from 8 or 9pm till morning and still no sod but that might be lucky only so gonna see for the next few days result..
*
Are you using the same apps for all the ROMs? Earlier I suspected some app syncing during standby mode will cause SOD, but now I'm not sure anymore.

QUOTE(danielcmugen @ Aug 5 2011, 03:55 PM)
LG optimus one? it has a good battery life i think (better go google and find out more as i only read 1 review bout the phone and it said battery life is good).....cheaper somemore.....but slower processor and 3mp camera only if you dont mind
*
The screen is also smaller. Gingerbread promised but until now no news from LG, almost a year since the phone was released already tongue.gif

QUOTE(kuntaker @ Aug 6 2011, 12:42 AM)
which widgets will show the actual battery bar %? when charge it shows 100% ( Battlife) after plug out , show 88% sleep.gif
*
After you charge to 100, you need to wait some more until you hear a notification sound and a 100% appears on the left of the notification bar.

To you guys who bought the phone recently, where it came with 2 back covers, what is the colour of the side chrome? Is it bright silver or gunmetal? There were 2 versions previously but not sure about now.

however, i love my ace. for me this is the 1st time i'm buying a smartphone (newbie of this) eventho it just a mid rate (only that i can afford now). maybe in future will buy other smartphone that high rate...especially that supprot HD.
*
Ace is a 1st Android for many people... after that they will know what they want in an Android, and they will upgrade. Ace still fulfills all my needs for now smile.gif

QUOTE(gitarburuk @ Aug 7 2011, 03:58 PM)
i buy 2 month ago too...mine is silver chrome too at the side. i got 2 back cover. black & white. y u ask?
*
Nothing lah, just curious. Mine is Onyx Black with gunmetal chrome. I was suspecting that the later batches are all Ceramic White with silver chromes.

Official release was rolled out worldwide on 16th July, but the version for our region has not arrived yet. You use Samsung Kies to upgrade the phone firmware. I'm plugging in my phone and checking Kies everyday doh.gif

wat is Kies? blush.gif

Samsung Kies is the PC sync software. Each manufacturer has its own: HTC Sync, Samsung Kies, SonyEricsson PC Companion, etc. The setup file should be in your microSD when you bought your phone, or you can download from the manufacturer websites.

Do you have friends with unlimited data plan using iOS/Android? They can provide wifi hotspot for you to download stuff.

What about those second hand buyers, can they upgrade at center? My brother in law bought one.

Can. Samsung recognise the phone IMEI, not the owner. They just check their system and can see the warranty period. At least, that was my experience with Samsung Berjaya hmm.gif

Plaza Berjaya, it's the building opposite Times Square. Can take the Monorail bridge to reach it. Same floor as the bridge. If you go in from the main entrance, it's 1 floor up.

Papago X5 is not free. If you want free, try searching in Market. Google Maps, Waze are some of the free ones.

IF gb is available via kies, do i have to unroot my phone for the update to proceed?

Don't think so. It will wipe everything and put a new firmware.
