          Guys, I need your help. I REALLY WANT TO BUY THIS PHONE: Awesome price, Outstanding Screen, Fast Processor, but my only worry is the lag. I've seen a couple of videos in Youtube where there is a 10-12 second lag to open something as basic as the dial screen. Is this normal? I have read many such posts on XDA too, where they say that installing a lagfix solves all this. I don't want a phone where I will have to void my warranty, and learn how to root, etc just to make it functional. Please tell me, is the lag really that bad? I am currently using a Nokia 5800, so anything is probably an improvement.

              I really hope someone can help me! I have the i9000 Galaxy S (awsum fone ) and when i connect it to samsung kies, kies does not recognise it, it keeps saying "connecting" but it won't. I have re-installed kies and it did not work I even re-did my whole computer installing a fresh copy of Windows XP. I have connected my i9000 to my pc before using kies as I have updated my os 2 times before. I have deleted files that have long extensions to fix the problem like the internet said I must do and still did not work. I have all the system requirements for kies to run. My fone is NOT rooted and has no custom ROM's or anything like that and it runs 2.3.3 gingerbread and I have selected "Samsung Kies" in USB settings. I really do hope someone can help me out and I would be very appreciative!

              Thank You

                  You can upgrade your phone via KIES.

                  Please ignore if you trying to update to 2.3.4

                  Regards,
                  Praveen.

                            you need pit file for rooting. You have to root first and then flash with the ROM

                            As per my understanding from what I have studied from xda forum in downloading mode you root like this

                            1. Step one: Root phone with CF root latest version 3.2 using pit file either with 513 or 803 pit file.

                            2. Then again step 2: Root phone with zImage in PDA
                            you can use 1.7 or 1.82 version of odin

                            This will instal CWM and SU superuser and may be busybox
                            You need to have Kies latest version installed and it must be closed while doing all this

                            Then in recovery mode you have install the ROM

                            I think you know how to use three combo mehtod. If you donot have that you cannot instal ROM on your phone. So you have to go to service centre.

                            Also check if your FW is bootloader otherwise you will loose three combo method.

                            Please correct me if I'm wrong.

                            My gingerbread doesnot show this much of files I have downlaoded it from net and it is latest version 2.3.4 it has phone_xxx_tar, csc_xxxx_tar, PDA_xxxx_tar files but I have not installed yet, still studying net for better knowledge and have some doubts and not decided on whether to go for custom ROM or company ROM as I'l loose warranty

                                    I had the same problem, Kies would recognise the phone once, the not recognise it the second time I connected it.
                                    I found that I had to keep reinstalling the USB drivers to get my computer to recognise the phone.
                                    In the end I uninstalled Kies, it is obviously faulty.
