Not quite nice the design. It makes two layer. Inner one to hold the phone while the flip case is like stitched to the inner later and make it more rectangular. I saw another kind in KL Festival Mall. Only one layer for backcase. Flipping part is connected directly to the back case. If you get what I mean laugh.gif

Since I got Galaxy W & Galaxy S II at the moment, decide to did a Small Review Comparison on it. wink.gif

  • Galaxy W Stock player not support playback of 720p MKV file. Anyway it is playable via MX Video Player Pro via SW / SW Fast mode. (Preferable SW Fast Mode). The performance is solid and smooth actually even though it is only software decode by MX Video Player Pro.
  • No Automatic Brightness Support.
  • No haptic feedback. I don't think it not support just it never do in the software part.
  • Even though Galaxy W is only single core 1.4Ghz, I find it performance quite similar with Galaxy S II dual core 1.2Ghz. You hardly seen a huge different in performance wise in general usage, off course they is different in gaming wise.
  • Galaxy W only use LCD and no pure black, but I find the color wise is much more accurate and nature. Galaxy S II is too vivid and fake color reproduction. You can notice a huge color issue on Galaxy S II when you turn on the camera and see the screen comparing actual object.
  • Galaxy W is quite stable in overall, I never face any hanging issue yet include photo taken. Galaxy S II sometimes will give you hanging issue during photo taking & on/off few times the WiFi/Hotspot.
  • Galaxy W internal RAM is too little which only 351MB in total, this generally often facing RAM full occupied issue. Galaxy S II wise is more than enough, as it got gorgeous 0.91GB of RAM.

I very agree on the colour part. AMOLED colour is really weird. Too unnnatural.

1. No idea. I use digi and it comes everything set up nicely(sign digi plan mah~~)
2. Mine no prob.
3. Possibly you mis press. Touch Wiz have the feature that you can slide the Notification Bar (top bar) to change brightness. Try to put your hand at that area. When you see it expand by a little(maybe double the line) you slide left and right. Brightness will change! So sometimes if you press near that area, it will change.

You can't use Stock Recovery to flash Cow's ROM. Get Clockwork Mod Recovery (CWM). I think cow linked it inside his thread for his rom. If you never use Odin to flash something to your phone, that means you never change your stock recovery. Their method of activating recovery is still the same as mentioned by you. Stock recovery menu only have few item(5 or 6...) while custom one has a lot more than that.
