I'm not using this phone (my home minister did), but judge by the price below RM1000 I would say this phone perfoms well in all aspect among all the mid range category. The 1Ghz dual core processor gives you smooth handling as well as super amoled screen, and yes.... it comes with gorilla glass!

The slight curvy shape at the back of the phone gives unique design however you won't notice it anymore once you put on the back cover.. ha

The only drawback is the old OS (gingerbread 2.3.6) but rumours is in the air that this phone will receive ICS treatment soon so stay tuned yo.

good to hear that samsung roll out the jelly bean update, may i know if we can just bypass the ICS and straight update our handset to JB?

cool... thanks guys

no ics update for this phone but will get jb instead.

there's once i hv similar problem but it's during the charging, the screen turn on with the message "unplug the connector" or something...

let's wait for jb update and hope it will eliminate these prob.

i advise u bring it to the service center and get it diagnose since it is under warranty.

Hi, what is the possible problem for my Galaxy S Advance's battery drain very fast? Well it's not due to heavy usage or what so ever as the phone will suddenly shut down and when I re-charge it, the battery indicator shows 50%

Could it be the batt or the phone itlsef? Yes, I did drop the phone previously.

How much is the batt for this model?

Usually it will last about 50% from the batt bar indicator and suddenly the screen goes blank without any notification, when switch it on it will shows low batt status.

I'm using stock rom, GB

I don't have the USB cable connect to the PC for the upgrade, any solution?

ok, managed to get the usb cable

yes, OTA is not available for software upgrade at the moment. Got to plug in cable

managed to upgrade to 4.1.2 jelly bean to my galaxy s advance, read lots of comment regarding the phone will become laggy and hang, prefer the original gingerbread.

so how's you guys experience? I haven't encounter any problem coz still new to the OS, need some time to find out.

barely after 1 week my galaxy s advance upgraded to JB, to be frank I have no issue at all, no hang, lag, slow or what so ever "JB symptoms".

love the new interface, I feel live smoother than before.

connect your phone to PC with Samsung Kies software installed.

I don't do any backup, so far ok.. data still there.
Just backup if you are worry.
