PrincessGirl, 28 Jul 2010Hello everyone, im from australia, perth.
I just wanna e... moreHello everyone, im from australia, perth.
I just wanna enquire some questions regarding this mobile SGS I9000.
1. I've heard that the GPS isnt working properly. Is it due to hardware problem? Can it be fixed?
There are people who encounter a bit of a problem getting a (fast)fix from the gps signal.
I'm from the Netherlands and use the 16GB version for over three weeks.
I have NO PROBLEM WHAT SO EVER with the gps!
Inside the house Google maps and Google Earth give me a fix within 30 sec. from a cold start.
Outside with a cold start Google maps, Navigation with voice and Google Earth give me a fix whitin 10sec!
It's not a hardware problem and on different blogs you can read that Samsung has picked up the problem and already has made a temporary fix.
You can also find a fix on a few rom-modding sites but those have to do with a flash though...
I think with the official update to Android 2.2 (Froyo) within the next months the problem will be solved for those who actualy have it ;-)
2. Does SGS has any in-built radio?
Yes it has a build in stereo radio with rds.
3. What is the speed difference between the 8GB and the 16GB?
There is NO speed difference between them, just the inside memory ;-)
4. Is the photo still clear when taking pics at night? (as i heard there isnt any flash light for the camera)
What do you think by yourself??
Ever seen a photo takin' in the dark whith a camera phone which is clear??
If you do, please post it, cause I think many people are interested to see one.
And you heard right: There is NO flash on the phone.
Even if there would be, it wouldn't help to make a clear picture at night.
5. Does the battery gets heated up easily? like when you use it on talking? or playing games? or watching movie?
What do you mean by 'heated up easily'?
If you play the free included game Asphalt5 for over an hour the back of the phone gets warm, but nothing to get worried about.
It even says so in the manual that it doesn't matter to the phone though.
If you realy want a phone that is fast, has an awesome screen, Android and the apps market AND beats the fruit phone in every department, just go for this one.
It also has an ace up it's sleeve: The update to Android 2.2 Froyou which will make it even faster and let it the the use of the full 512MB instead of the 326MB which is only possible with the current Android 2.1 Eclair :-))

Some more hands~on. This time with the Video and Music player. Listening to Mp3's through headphones is a real pleasure. However, I must point out that the default settings are God awfull, as there is too much distortion. I found that I had to use the custom equalizer settings (adjust them a little) before I lost the distortion. Otherwise, the Galaxy S gives off the perfect blend of Bass and Trebble. (I'm using Bose headphones). I don't suggest using the 5.1 sound when listening to MP3's.
The video player is gorgeous! Picture is beautiful. I highly recommend viewing videos with the 5.1 sound enabled.
On a side note. When you go to the music player, turning the phone on it's side will give you a cover flow type menu which displays all your songs/albums as C.D. Icons which you can skip through.

I have it for one month and the only problem was that the Keis software from the CD provided did not recognise the phone. I downloaded Kies from the Samsung site and then it worked.
Otherwise, the phone is the best smartphone I ever had, fast, no bugs, large screen, swype, runs any video format, flash lite, very easy to control.
