    I liked Galaxy 5 very much. I am currently on Nokia E63, which is outdated, so i was thinking about a upgrade, and i found Samsung Galaxy 5. Yes! Its better than symbian. It has got all i need in my smartphone (OS, Lots of apps, Games, Mail etc.), so Galaxy works awesome for budget smartphone hunters (like me). G5 has got a huge and best spec sheet BUT G5 lacks multitouch (wish it wasn't). However i can live without multitouch. I am gonna get one G5 for me within 2 months. (Until bad impression of my exam result gets low) : )

                          Hi

                          I bought this phone a few days ago and for price is quite a good handset. I turned off 3G and put onto 2G to save battery now unticked 2G as wanting to use 3G again and not showing on 3G on icons on screen.

                          Pls advised me how to get this back, I have also tried manual roam and not worked.

                            Guys finally took the handset today..it is awesome!!!Felt like using apple iphone (not to meant any offence) Supports all kinds of applications. But the problem faced so far is couple of time the phone got freezed. May I know what's the reason pls, if possible? Is it common in other mobiles also? By the way am using 2gb card & haven't installed many applications. Pls guys your response will deeply be appreciated...thanx

                              for prolonging battery life on this machine:

                              1. lower yr screen brightness.
                              2. lower yr screen time out to about 30 secs.
                              3. use 2g networks, if possible.
                              4. uncheck "enable always-on mobile" if yr not always on the internet.
                              5. INSTALL ADVANCED TASK KILLER(ATK) FROM ANDROID MARKET. it really helps to kill applications that are running in the background and u dont need them. this contributes to longer battery life..
                              6. charge the phone until 99%

                              this gives me about 3 days of normal usage..

                              hope this helps...:-)

                                    http://hubpages.com/hub/Lithium-Ion_Battery_Maintenance

                                    Love this phone affordable and it doesnt lag or freeze on me. Maybe some just expecting too much out a cheap phone.

                                    Have Fun!!!
