Well I've got the G version and I can't wait to get rid of it once S3 is out and I've got enough dough to buy it. Why? Let me tell you why and bear with me its quite long whining. Spend almost 2K on a phone I can say its not wrong for the long whining.
Its all because of only one aspect of the phone but its a major aspect because I use it most of the time when using this phone. Music player. I never installed cracked apps as advised by most user here so the phone should be doing fine but no. Its never fine.
First, it freeze when I put it in my pocket after I played an mp3 player. Regardless whatever player I used. Stock player, winamp, poweramp. Its not normal freeze but you-can't-do-sh*t-unless-you-take-off-the-battery-freeze. It happen every time after the phone been up for quite some times. If restart, the same case won't happen again.
Then there's the skipping of the track problem. When the mp3 player been using for quite some times, the player will randomly skip some tracks. Sometimes the whole playlist. It started with minor skipping within the song then it goes haywire skipping all those track as it pleased. This also happen regardless whatever player I can throw to the phone. I try paused it and go back the track it skipped and played it again, still can play fine then after a while skipping will began again. Its annoying as sh*t.
That's all happen on a stock rom. Then I followed advice from fellow forumer to change to custom rom and flash different kernel and now I'm using superROM v2.0 with superatmos kernel 2.1 (using Lucifer for a while but battery draining double fast so change back to superatmos).
Okay, the freezing problem gone with the wind. But still there's a few freeze or minor hang when using other apps but those doesn't bug me much. But the skipping track problem still persist and it bugs me as a hound from hell. A few other nights when on the way back from work I felt like I want to threw this phone to pieces when the skipping problem still occurred even after I flashing rom and kernel if not for its 1.7K price. If it cost me 200 ringgit this phone would be already been in pieces somewhere at Kastam JB.
So, I thought maybe its microSD because I'm using 32GB class 4. So, I took the 16GB class 10 from my now useless Mi300 and tried it. Got off from work open player and played the files. For quite some time it was doing okay. I felt happy but only those happiness to be shattered into pieces as I almost reach my destination minor skipping within tracks occurred. Then the major super freaking annoying major skipping tracks began. It still happening on class 10 microSD but took a little longer. FYI, this problem never occurred when I'm using my CSL Mi300 and even the now super useless HTC Touch before. Other aspect of S2 works like charm and I love every other thing on the phone just the music player irritates me to the death.
My impression towards Samsung phone degrading. Might even considered now about that S3. Sigh~
