      There is a trick with samsung batteries did you know that? but you have to do it the first time you buy the phone, i only knew it after, and i'm not sure if it really works, they say it does.

      you have to make sure the battery is really drained after the factory charge, and then charge the phone with the cellphone TURNED OFF!!! (didn't do this because i was so excited to use my phone) Then when it is fully charged, remove the battery and wait a few seconds, put it back in, then charge the phone again until it becomes really really fully charged. They say it does the trick. i don't know. there's no harm in trying.

        @bingo
        Sorry could not help you much as I was out. Anyways share your experience here as to what had happened and how did you successfully repaired it. Will help many.

        @all others
        Plz read my previous post about Video player and Battery. Battery is quite good and Default Video is below par. Use Vital Player (Free). A great video player. Also Vplayer Advanced.

        @all morons
        Plz first buy a handset, use all the functions and then rant. Please.

                this phone already comes with a "gingerbread ready" hardware and m sure it'll sell more than the galaxy 3 or 5... which already have been given a future FroYo promise from samsung

                one thing i dont like is that its being sold in the market by the name of Galaxy S...

                But anyways its a good value for money phone with the "arm 1 ghz processor, HD recording", and some retailers in India even selling it in between 18,500-19,500 INR

                    15 k would have been a good price for this phone given the specs, however a good phone if u are not a robust user ,however if one who is lookin to buy the i9000 need not compromise with this as i9000 is available in the market in almost all shops, it will be available until galaxy s II is released , so grab yours before stock runs out , and if galaxy s II is in your mind , increase your budget by around 5 k over galaxy S!

                            Kunal SIngh , can you calm down and stop confusing the people??? Pls dont talk as if your the authorised person of samsung electronics, If people dont know how to deal with tweaking a mobile its purely their fault, some may succeed in the 1st attempt and some may not. You cant blame a beautiful piece of hardware for that. Hope people understand the fact here.

                            And one more
                            i9003 can be successfully rooted with superoneclick and it works.
                            Regarding support this mobile is barely a month old in indian market, it will take time to get customizations

                                    First of all, DO NOT ROOT YOUR PHONE. This is not a i9000, it is an i9003. The two phones may be similar in specs, but have very different file systems running especially because of the variation in graphics processor. If you try to root your phone, there is a high chance you will BRICK (crash/wipe out/lock) it. Even if you don't brick it by rooting, you will end up bricking it when you try to install a custom ROM or anything else.

                                    Secondly, DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE. There is very little support for this phone, and Samsung has admitted very few numbers were sold. Therefore this phone will NEVER receive any updates. So if you want Gingerbread, this phone will never receive it. But i9000 is already having the 2.3 Gingerbread update! Also, if something goes wrong with your phone.. it will be very expensive and very slow to get it fixed at Samsung service centers.

                                    i9000 is now available for only 22,400. It is an excellent deal, and you are getting a piece that will last you a long time. i9003 is a real waste of money and you cannot expect it to get any new software or something like that. Even if you want a cover for the phone, or screen protector, you cannot buy it anywhere because they don't make protective covers/bags/pouches for the i9003!
