QUOTE(Xabrius @ Dec 26 2011, 02:13 AM) that doesn't sound right... lol... Will try that next time muhahaha QUOTE(IwanAGP @ Dec 26 2011, 02:46 AM) I think the diaphragm of speaker is wet and thus affected its vibration. Better clean up thoroughly... i think so...thats why when i remove the water is ok already...cant open it or else warranty void...so only option is to use compressed air....

QUOTE(xMika @ Dec 29 2011, 11:20 PM) Due to many PMs to my inbox regarding how to root their samsung galaxy w .. let me spoonfeed you guys .. 1.) Download this DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.zip Link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment...=1&d=13214358882.) Connect your phone to computer and wait for it to install the samsung ABD driver automatically. 3.) Unzip the root file you've downloaded. Open the .bat file and follow the on screen instructions before you continue rooting. Change the settings on your phone .. when everything is ok then start rooting. 4.) Wait for it to finish the rooting process. After that your phone will auto reboot. 5.) Take note you need to fully charge your phone before you start rooting to prevent suddenly power off .. your computer also same. If root halfway computer turn off might brick your phone .. 6.) If you see superuser in your apps list. Then you've rooted your phone successfully ... no need backup incase rooting goes wrong? maybe provide some backing up guide too

QUOTE(iamstillnew @ Dec 30 2011, 11:43 PM) planning to get one..but dunno tim or not one. suggestion? i seldom play games. izzit good enuf to play with apps? how is the camera? i see a lot of worrying comments abt it switching off itself. hmmm i dont have problems...mine is working fine...never auto off etc...infact my phone & its speaker got wet for few hours but still working fine.... QUOTE(Besanth @ Dec 31 2011, 12:07 AM) I have a question, will there be any impact on my phone if I install many apps? How many apps is 'too many' apps? what kind of apps? if those apps like whatsapp, facebook then sure will have impact. more ram will be used up & battery life might be less a bit because it needs the services to be run in background & it will be constantly checking for updates, notifications, msg etc....

ok i manage to root my phone already. there is two working ways i found for now for those who updated to 2.3.6 via OTA. 1) use odin & flash it back to 2.3.5 then root it using DoomLord 2) root it in recovery mode (read this up http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...04#post21427204 ) first i tried recovery mode & it works even if you are in 2.3.6. then i tried using odin & rooting it...also works. good luck p/s: sorry just manage to do it today...been busy..work work work & its my first time rooting This post has been edited by infernoaswen: Jan 16 2012, 01:11 AM

How come the result like this Damn frustrated already, is it because of the android version problem??? I have the latest version 2.3.6 from the kies update. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « you cant root while in 2.3.6. refer to my post few pages back. btw guys...try not to spam or else mods is gonna rage...

ok guys i manage to flash the stock recovery with clockworkmod v5.5.0.4 via odin. when i boot in recovery mode everything is ok. can see its v5.5.0.4 & i manage to create a backup. but when i use the clockworkmod app & tried doing a backup it crashes..& i see from the app the recovery is version 2.something... question is how do i update the app so that it recognized the v5.5.0.4 that i flashed recently via odin?  or can i link it in some way?
