At first I was shocked with the bogs of I9100G, almost regretting of my purchase. In fact it turn out to be much less satisfactory than its counterpart I9100 but after changing the firmware and upgrading OS to android 4 it got somehow bearable. I don't understand why there should be so difference between I9100 and I9100G.
Now I'm just getting used to it. The back office people say it's rare to happen such cases but in all I recommend not to by I9100G. It has a weaker CPU and GPU and some bugs that isn't eliminated even by upgrading its components.

                  the easiest is download the ics firmware from sammobile website and flash with odin.
                  http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9100G&r=-1#modelsa

                  need to register(free) before can download.
