SGS II doesnt support tegra games officially. those who manage to play use chainfire 3d to play it. for samurai II it is available for nontegra processors already and for NFS shift actually already any nontegra processor can play it too, doesnt need tegra to play it.

good shot. there's enough lighting though from the street lamp..try in darker places maybe ?

another way is to root the phone and use chainfire3d

usually on the memory card itself or on the box got write.

for those who are planning to buy microsd cards, you might or might not want to get a big one because you don't get to use your microsd for game data such as gameloft's data unless you root. You might be wondering why. Its simple - the Galaxy W (along with other similar samsung phones) have 3 different storage locations:

- Internal Storage (phone storage)
- USB Storage (/mnt/sdcard)
- External SD Card storage (/mnt/sdcard/external_sd)

Most games including gameloft game's store their data to /mnt/sdcard which is where you are only limited to 2 GB of it. Say you install asphalt 6, then need for speed hot pursuit - that takes up about 1 gb already..you're left with another gig for other data.

Your external SD card will NOT be used for this purpose and can only be used for gameloft data if you root your phone and run a script to do some mapping or linking (if not mistaken).

Therefore, your external SD can mainly be used to store videos, photos, music and other data files that u wish..and also you could increase your internal storage space by moving from internal phone to SD card (external SD card). that's all you can use the external SD card for. So don't think you could install like 10 gameloft games when you get that 8 gb or 16gb microsd card - you CANT.

Please take note of this and TS - please put this up in the first page so pple are aware of this.

can you share the link? i havent found one so far that doesnt require root

Edit: Found it, just do a google search but it links to an illegal site so cant and wont share it here. Havent tried on my wife's galaxy W, has anyone tried it or wants to try it first ?

do a google search for "gameloft games to external micro sd"

you can move the app to sd by going to manage applications, select the app then click on move to sd. the app shouldnt lag but when bootup, it will take a while longer to load up the app from the external microsd card and also when you are connected via usb storage mode you wont be able to access the app (because its on SD card and it is being used)

try this app out - its free and works on our galaxy W to sort your apps and fill the empty gaps :

TS might want to put this up in the first page.

most if not all games that downloads to "sd card" folder. this means you're pretty much limited at the moment to what you can have but 2gb is pretty good to have about 2-3 decent games already (gameloft ones).

yes its not exactly 2gb..lag the phone? dont think so...have not tried it tho

got good demand, not likely to drop too much or drop at all. samsung is trying to repeat their success with the previous samsung wave which sold millions of dollars and this handset is back for buck, so it'll most likely sell extremely well

RRP is 999, you should be able to get it anywhere between 790 -> 999. Check garage sales section to find out the best bargain.

for something < 1k what kind of camera performance u expecting? point and shoot quality? DSLR? come on...

now who told you that? lol...ICS does need a decent hardware but it doesnt need dual core as far as i am aware of to run it...

not sure if can play rmvb, but u can try mx video player and if i recall correctly there's an official realplayer too..you might try those two.

yes..realplayer is the player from the company that invented RMVB if not mistaken...

the settings > about > status section got show the battery level without any 3rd party software. your battery life is bad probably because you either:

- left GPS turned on, it should be off if not using
- left wifi / bluetooth on, it should be off again if not using
- have something running in background eating up your battery

You can try using juicedefender to monitor if not mistaken. My wife's galaxy W battery life is very good. last night left it at 67% this morning after 7 hours wake up is 66%. Lost 1% only is fantastic.

skype is fine even minimized, no need kill it. weather program? nope shouldn't be because i dont think it checks every x minute, should be every x hours for refresh so shouldnt affect battery life. get juicedefender to check.

you should be able to get white one at sunway pyramid top floor outside digital centre - shop called PDA Expert. Last i checked was last week they still have white, not sure still got or not. But u can call up and see - www.pdaexpert.com.my.
