        i am going to buy samsung galaxy J1..
        it is from vietnam and has 1gb ram 5 n 2mp back n front camera..
        so i want to know is it original or not?
        because at this web i saw J1 specifications which are quiet different from the 1 i am talking about although i had also heared that samsung mobiles made in vietnam are first copy of originals.
        Any expert advice?

          This J1ace and J2 are a facade. i have bought both in one row, they produce excess heat, you find those 3 fingures we normally use for swiping developing a consistent irritation from the burning . When you are not using the phone your palm is okay and once you resume its unbearable. I have used other phones such as Lumia 800 and the nokia family but have neve r encountered this problem.

            If nothing wrong with the phone, Samsung service center will tell you what to do, no repair required.
            Some day when you really need to make a call, and the SIM card failure and cannot call.
            Just a simple repair so as to avoid any sudden failure to call.
            Your decision, not mine.

                  If no change, then uninstall the app.
                  Finally, install the app. Do not change any setting yet. Use default setting.

                  Reset may not help as it will use the same apps.
                  Reset used back those apps that come factory preloaded.
                  By uninstall, and later install, the apps & phone could sync properly.

                    The problem lies with the sim card is not align properly hence phone cannot detect.
                    Repair is a better option, as the repair man will able to adjust the alignment.

                        If there are several connection stated "Saved", then do "Forget" on all those SSID.
                        This is to clear all memory that the phone which are previously connected before.
                        Then go near to your router, select the SSID on 2.4GHz band.
                        If detected, you have to input the password and Connect.
                        If not detect, do manual input by create SSID (2.4GHz band) and input password, finally Connect.
                        If you use someone wifi then make sure you "Foget" that SSID, else when you use your router wifi, it may have conflict on which SSID should the phone connect to.
                        This is why you have this issue on wifi connection.

                                      Some years ago, i bought a used camera (which is few years old model no warranty).
                                      As i bought with problem, which i knew.
                                      I sent the camera to the Manufacturer's Distributor service center, without receipt/warranty card, etc. Just the camera only.
                                      Without saying anything, they take in for repair, of which i did not ask how much.
                                      Few days later, they inform me the camera is repaired.
                                      Went to the service center and expect to pay for the repair.
                                      Instead, the service staff told me the camera is good, no charges!
                                      This means that there is a problem on that camera which they knew.
                                      I did come across another camera with the same model, without any problem.
                                      So, either the 2nd camera was repaired before, or different batch (Key).

                                        If it is still under warranty, go to the Manufacturer Service Center and let them to check.
                                        As i was Warranty administrator, i did learn a lot from the Manufacturer and how they handle any problem.
                                        There is this thing, call "Batch number" (is stated in the item, phone), which will identify all the parts suppliers. Being in the Technical dept, whenever there is an issue on 1 component the manufacturer can detect who responsible for the failed parts. If the failed parts is true, then the suppliers have to provide replacement (if unable, the manufacturer will get the parts from other supplier.) and include repair cost.
                                        So technical saying, my phone which has no problem, and yours do have problem.
                                        Then the Batch number is not the same as yours. As one of the supplier may supplied the faulty part for your batch, in the assembly line.
                                        Technical speaking, the manufacturer do able to identify the parts suppliers.
                                        Hence, if you send your phone to the service center, which the service center would probably received info from the manufacturer, will able to replace the failed part.

                                        Hence, if you have this problem, then others phones with the same batch number to yours, the users will have the identical problem.
                                        "Batch number" is the main key reference, some use other key for reference.
                                        For example, if you go to setting -> About device.
                                        From here, certain alphanumeric coding. Hence, this is a sort of references, as in most case, saying "For their reference".
                                        Also do note that beside the model, the rest are variants, such as SM-J which also refer as key for each separate version for different countries.
                                        Just click on the spec above, you will see all the variants stated, may include specific countries. There are other info such as, ** version. (** indicate and end in version).
                                        That is why, some have problem, while others do not have any problem; understand.
