    Everone, especially in South Africa, please be VERY afraid buying a S2 because the PC Suite available for sync with your PC, is called "KIES" which is a TOTAL failure. It is HARD to understand how a company like SAMSUNG's Q&A Dept can allow such a POORLY TESTED PROGRAM onto the market to support the "so called TOP OF THE RANGE handset". Our IT Dept spend virtually a day-and-a-half to assist me connecting via cable to sync, WITHOUT SUCCESS. My handset is only a dressed-up doorstopper at this moment-in-time! Even their Service Center admitted to me that they are aware of the problem and cannot offer me "ANY ASSISTANCE" and can they send me a questionaire to complete about my experience! You can imagine what Ihad told them what to do with that!! You have beenWARNED

        Just bought the phone in 21-03-2012, yesterday (11-05-12), the phone dead, not even 3 month :(, it hang while play game, force shutdown, cant turn it on, today (12-05-2012), sent it to service center, facing the same problems like others, especially the phone camera, its always freezes after taking picture, battery also very fast dried, contact ringtone sometime not follow the tone i have set, very frustrating with my first android phone, now go back using my old but reliable symbian phone N8 while waiting the S2 back from service center...

            i bought gt i9100g 3 months ago ,and i had the music problem .i really fight to solve it but there isn't any benfit.

            two weeks ago i update my phone with odin and i download the new firmware from this site sammobile.com/firmware.

            the mobile combletly changed ,there is no camira or music problem

            i use a cpu counter ,i surprised when my processor worked with it's full power 1.2 gh .
            and i prove that with downloading a game which cauldn't work before the game is asphalt 6 .it now work on my device.

            the only problem with my device is the ice cream sandwich

                                    Am really suffering with this I9100G. Just upgraded the software to XWLC2. New probem ... Phone is going to sleep mode if not used for 1 hr approx. Even if call comes it is not waking up. The caller can hear ringing but the phone is not. Once you press the power button it wakes up and starts ringing ...
                                    Does anyone know, how to fix this ?

It would skip parts of music and then crash totally. Also, the chipset and the GPU used in i9100G are inferior than those used in i9100 and do you know why it it heats less? Because the speed has been limited to 1008 Mhz. So, by this logic, they should limit the speed to 500 Mhz to resolve the overheating issue completely.

                                        for those who think s2 is better than s2g
                                        they are wrong, i personally used both devices,
                                        and found that g version is better, less heatup,
                                        more gaming experience due to over clocked powervr540,
                                        most of people says G version works on 1008 mhz instead of 1200 mhz,they are also wrong, g version goes to full capacity (1200 mhz)when its needed.

                                        So people who have g version or just buy it,don't be panic (you have a very nice machine in your hand)
