      Must admit i am struggling getting all set up with settings here and their but one thing is annoying...I am writing a text message and in multi-tap or t9 the cursor takes ages to move to next character making lots of typos and spaces missing,,you have to tap twice on spacebar to get a space..?? Dont want to use qwerty and last time i encountered this problem was on moto v2288 in which the star and hash key moved the cursor left or write to move curser quicker..

      I think i have gone overboard on app dowloads but still need to get used to galaxy s before i can use it as main fone..Because as with all touchscreens you have to handle them with care so you dont activate something cause you have tapped the screen am using a lanyard for better handling..

      LOVE screen/sounds(speaker tonal quality and earbuds)/video/browser/battery life/live wallpapers and some apps.

      HATE touchscreen without d-pad or some kind of jogwheel control for accuracy due to nature of capacitive screen/unresolved slow curser in texting or tweeting etc/no flash but i knew that before purchase..

      To me there is a huge,huge amount of stuff in this device and to come out boasting that i can operate galaxy s in same way as my series 60 third edition smartfones would be a lie..I am still only a few days of having galaxy s and hope to use it fluentlly as the next person but as yet still unconvinced..

        got the phone for a few days. and i am really loving it. at first i considered an iphone 4 inspite of the sihnal issues. then i went through some of the reviews and thought to give this lovely tool a try. i am happy that i have made this choice rather than going for the apple one. with the android i feel so free to use things. along with the most amazing feature pack one very little thing just amazed me. its about setting up my yahoo mail account for the first time in a mobile device. its an impossible job to set up the free yahoo mail set up in the mobile device; at least what seemed to me until now. this is a serious contender for the mobile phone of the year. what a screen. this is really unbelievable. some of the reviewers have said for the iphone 4 screen. but apple has got almost the same thing with a better resolution pack. but the super amoled is a different thing. u cannot appherend the quality until u have got one in ur hand. cheers to Samsung and the Android team.

                    Hi there Galaxy owners!

                    Ive been using the phone and Im very Happy with it. Its a really cool phone, BUT..

                    Ive installed the Advanced task Killer and noticed that some Apps keep running withou my activation. So i kill them, and some time later, some of them or others appears running, like MSN Talk, Gallery, among others.

                    Is this normal?

                    Thanks

                      Got this phone 2 days ago, so far so good. Battery lasts for mostly a day or two. Great Super AMOLED, way better than my laptop LCD... Think Free office is very handy, This is the best smart phone yet, not even Apple can beat it because of Apple's telephony issues. There's just one issue about Android's SMS, you can't add more than 10 recipients, but Handcent App from Android Market do solved the problem, great syncing, kudos for Handcent App makers. Android folks should put some attention to this. But all in all, it's a good phone, we'll just see in time if it's good enough... ciao! :D

                            Ok after having this phone for about one week now and my first real problem with the handset has cropped. It seems there is an issue with the software regarding the battery meter.
                            On two occassions now i have charged the battery until it say "unplug the charger. Battery full". I then used the phone for about ten mins of calls. An hour of web browsing and about 2 to 3 hours of music and the battery still said 100%. Only when i powered the phone down then on again it refreshed the battery metre. Anyone else has this problem?
