today i jus bought a lg optimus 2x
for the same price as a brand new galaxy w

but, the performance . . . . . is reli 2x 
still, i m keeping the galaxy w and waiting for CM9 from arco 

wat is tat?

Wrote a customer care email to Gameloft:

Samsung designed their new phones with 3 memory layer architecture.
While android's gingerbread OS come by default with a Move2SD feat for apps which is really useful....however gameloft's executables forces the data of games to be stored under "/sdcard" folder which is actually WRONG for this kind of architecture.
/sdcard folder is actually the usb storage of the phone and not external sd card.
the external sd card is in /sdcard/external sdcard folder.....
This is an obvious programming bug from gameloft side and many users had to workaround by either repacking the apk themselves (which is a service gameloft should've provided in the first place or add an app in market to auto repoint the directories for these specific phones) Note that Samsung is not the ONLY manufacturer who had opt for such designs of 3 memory laters....Especially for devices like Samsung galaxy W (i8150) the usb storage memory is really limited and therefore games from gameloft cant really be installed on these devices due to this programming bug although I understand for programming convenience game loft used the .GetExternalStoragePath API from android API itself....but you guys need to be aware that there are these new architectures from some of the leading phone manufacturers in the market....no doubt the same architecture was also used in the once doubt the best phone in the market samsung galaxy S2....though the 16gb internal storage made it not such a big issue....but I hope gameloft can consider providing extra service of repointing this directory for end users of lower end phones with less internal memory so we can opt to use external sd card and still purchase a lot of game loft games on our devices.....this repointing stuffs should not be too difficult to program and imagine the amount of sales it can gain.....there aren't a lot of users who knows how to "root" and are willing to "root" their devices to workaround this issue by memory swaps or even some opt to hack and repack your .apk themselves....Gameloft should think of giving better service to end consumers in this case I'd say.....
Also wrote one to samsung products support email,

which basically asked them why they designed such architecture which is non-conformance to android programming interface standards....and causes confusion to end users as well as troubles the programmers......

I think as soon as anyone of them replies, I will "CC" google's support email into them.....to keep google in the loop....because this spoils androidOS's reputation in a holistic picture.....

this is a really stupid architecture if you ask me....and really lousy support from gameloft's programmers....

yes, pre-loved phone 
i dunno if i will ever go back to buying full price now
since there r so many good deals in lyn 

woo......sgp screen protector, very high quality screen protector, oso very xpensive, saw on lelong at least rm40 ...........but too bad dun hav galaxy w wan yet.....

my current rm10 cheapskate pasar malam sp gt loads of scratches n rainbow effect........

I don't think SGP produces for Galaxy W.

Anyway, if there's one. I don't recommend the Oleophobics as it is said that the coating comes off after 3 weeks or so. Though clarity wise should be better than my Ultra Optics

rm20 is cheap for such a high quality sp.......useless psr mlm sp oso need rm10.......hmm, buy dis n cut it myself? lol

That seller selling fake stuff lah. Mana boleh so cheap. He didn't even bother refuting the claims of many comments in there asking to confirm authenticity

Unless old stocks, then only get 2 years warranty. If new stocks, all 1 yr. Samsung will still honor those stocks taken under 2 yrs warranty period. I went to Plaza Samsung today.

Ya, all the stocks grab like crazy. Many dealers also complaint samsung now push tablet with their fast moving model like W or S+... forcing dealers to take both or all items. So dealers now have to think twice abt selling fast moving items cheap.

If you read the published detail, many not yet update or perhaps don't intend to update their details. I know many still stating 2 yrs warranty. But the info I got is from samsung itself. Dealers confirm with me only. Please dial 1800 88 9999. Don't listen to forumers only, ASK samsung. Or like me, visit Plaza Samsung.

You have to pay an upfront payment of RM500 lah. In the end you still have to pay Rm900+ to Digi during registration

rugi buy from telco ...

I know how it works

Just to clarify to the person i quoted because moat people think that all you have to pay RM3XX for the device and then just pay for the monthly data bills which is not the case. In fact many were mislead especially those wanting to buy the Galaxy S II and they thought whoaaaaaa RM1299 so cheap!! But they do not read the term and condition properly so they thought it's  a super good and cheap deal but clearly it's not.

Also adding to the fact that you're tied down for 2 years meaning you can't change Telco if you want to. And digi is known for coverage issues. My friend won a HTC Sensation from Digi from a phone review competition but to.his disappointment, he got a bloody DEMO set with scratches everywhere.

You reply pretty fast..before I could amend my post properly Typing on a phone banyak susah.

How's Celcom? Their RM38/month 1GB data plan doesn't seem too bad also cheaper than both Maxis and Digi but speed is only 3G.

Actually I'm porting to U mobile now..their prepaid unlimited internet is cheap. Coverage isn't very good but good enough for a student

Hi want to ask, if I buy from Digi, it's locked to Digi sim card right? So if I go on a few weeks overseas trip, I can't use another foreign telco's sim card?

If you think the 2nd price should be lower by 100, then RM800-850 lo. Even if someone says can buy at RM920 new, I'm sure it will be gone immediately. Closer we get to CNY, more hot it becomes.

Added on January 8, 2012, 4:38 pmThis is from XDA, not abt malaysian mkt of course: Did you get a new Android device for Christmas?  Roughly 3.7 million activations occurred on December 24-25 so it’s safe to assume a few of you did.

But what it means is there are so many Samsung users, so Samsung should do more for its customers. All the samsung users should demand for a better sales and service from them. They are getting a big fat bonus I'm sure. What you might ask? Why not a nice sp from samsung for all their future new phones. Not very expensive.

vol up + home + power , no recovery mode, remove battery ,....all didn't works... no recovery mode !!!! sucks.... im selling this after repair .... did u try ? its different with others
