      On the other hand some of us know that your a samsung fan boy and you defend them no matter what. I remember you also defended samsung when they did release the buggy 2.2 Froyo and then it was pulled out of the market, remember ?

      So I don't know much about your credibility man, but you need to respect others opinions and experience instead of just pointing fingers that they are either apple, or Nokia fans.

        [deleted post]The official LATEST firmware xwjpa have fixed all lag-problems and I now get a satelite-fix from cold-start in less than 5 seconds. It is mostly Nokia-fanatics that desperatly try to write lies about Galaxy S, and IPhone4..., on forums all over Internet, because they know their Gods at Nokia made yet another useless Symbian-phone N8.

                                    ..That's great.

                                    But I'll find out first if the update is already bug fixed. I'll wait for the initial responses of those in UK after their update.

                                    ..forget Kies, go to your nearest samsung service center..and ask for that free Froyo update. It's alot safer.

                                        for kies sync problems on windows platforms you need to go to the microsoft support site and download a service called remote connection manager and kies will connect everytime wonce installed, its just windows cant id the phone for kies to talk to it which is why it gets stuck on the connect
