QUOTE(whitewolf @ Jan 31 2013, 09:02 AM) edit: oh okay. i guess i have same problem as jlik2929. guys, new 4.1.2 is here right? i checked my phone to see if there's OTA but then it says "access to the software update service is provided to users in the order in which they request it. Try later" and then i tried using kies it says "your device's current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies" so... how do I go about doing this? I never rooted it. I sent to lowyat because it went dead on me last month. i don't know if they updated wrongly. is there something wrong? Your phone is already on queue mode and waiting for OTA. That's why it won't accept Kies. Alternate way is either use Odin or MobileOdin (if your phone rooted). Or easiest way is go to service centre and ask them to updates the firmware for you. |

QUOTE(mfaizulm @ Jan 31 2013, 12:50 PM) But to be charge RM80 just for update is kinda to much. So who ever own a laptop or pc can do business for updateing others hp via kies or Odin. charge rm10/hp..$$$$$..olready  Where are you staying.? If KL then go to Lowyat service centre. Tell them you want to update for latest firmware. Tell them also that you have problem updating via kies. They will update the firmware for you and it's FREE of charge. Payment RM80 - 100 is applied only to AP set who want to update their firmware at service centre. All SME set are FOC. This post has been edited by waveweaver: Jan 31 2013, 01:19 PM |

QUOTE(mfaizulm @ Jan 31 2013, 12:07 PM) Just wondering what method will service center used to update the firmware? Dont own a pc so no chance to try via kies or odin  Try to ask samsung via help line 1800-88-9999 but no luck (line bz or this line really no use?  ) I think service centre also using Odin to flash official firmware same as what you can do yourself if you have PC....lolz  |

If you clear your Gallery cache then of course it will slow when you open it on the first time as it have to built the cache again.

QUOTE(eszol @ Jan 31 2013, 11:42 PM) U must be kidding right? Don't you read? Bwahaha..the guy already said dont want to use 3rd party app for gallery..  Easiest way is let the Gallery built up its cache fully first. Since it have folder..the cache wont built fully. To solve it..need to open the Gallery then open each folder one by one so the cache can completed. After that opening Gallery will be a breeze This post has been edited by waveweaver: Jan 31 2013, 11:51 PM |

QUOTE(ngkhanmein @ Jan 31 2013, 11:52 PM) Use stock Gallery is good enough already if you dont have too many folders. If have many folders..need to open each folder first. Then everything will be smooth again. Just try to avoid clear the Gallery cache. |

QUOTE(G K Lai @ Feb 1 2013, 05:04 PM) Hi all, Anyone have experience doing FULL BACKUP/RESTORE using Samsung Kies? I think of doing Factory Reset and wipe everything, then restore from Samsung Kies. How is the reliability of Kies' backup function? I did some search and found some users unable to restore his/her Apps. My phone have not been rooted before, all stock, so those backup app that need root access are out of my choice.  Try Carbon - App Sync and Backup free app from market. |
