Guest JaGuR Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 Just wondering, who will be moving to the new Samsung Galaxy S i9000. The phone looks amazing, how a phone should look and work, with out all the modifications :( I will be getting one, what they have done with Android, and their Touch Wiz looks awesome. Maybe winmo is dead as an operating sytem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Billus Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 Maybe winmo is dead as an operating sytem Umm yea, that's why there is going to be a Windows Phone 7 release :( I know I'll be getting either a Windows Phone powered device or an Android powered device. This is mostly depending on how well Windows Phone 7 behaves as an operating system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aceofrazgriz Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I moved to the Incredible... Omnia was a great device, but sadly cells get dated way to quickly these days. I'm all too skeptical on WP7, but i did <3 me some WinMo. Sadly, WinMo is basically now dead. I really hope WP7 goes far and does well, for now, Android is where its at. Might pickup a WP7 device soon after launch, but i don't like picking up totally new OS's that soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest teaumikael Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I will definitely get one :( has been used WinMo for the past 8 years (started with O2). I have bored with it, going for new OS but I also want to try out the New BADA OS...Damn, all are so tempting. Hopefully the launch price in Malaysia will be below RM2500...... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DLCI Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 I'm gonna wait a bit more. My biggest concerns with Android so far were the crappy Qualcomm CPUs, the lack of multimedia features in the OS and no proper exchange support. It seems those days are gone now and I find i9000 quite appealing in fact. Still one concern I have is the battery life - all Eclair handys seem to have issues with it. Perhaps will wait bit more and see the next iphone - just for one-to-one comparisson :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JaGuR Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 The source code has already been released, even before this phone hits the shelves http://android.modaco.com/content/samsung-...-code-released/ Will mean custom froyo roms, very soon :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest amitsharma.atc Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) sure...:) i m planing to buy this phone when its release in india Edited June 8, 2010 by amitsharma.atc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FredVermejo Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 sure...:) i m planing to buy this phone when its release in india After having Nokia, LG and Samsung phones, I have to say it loud: Samsung never more! I'll go back to Nokia or move on to HTC. Samsung hardware can be great but it lacks on software and, IMO, South Korean companies really don't care about us and never release a update SW version. I agree with someone above that said cell get old too quick, and SW update helps keep it fresh a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thescope Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) It's nice but I will wait for 4G/WiMax... The company that has 4G in my area Clear/Sprint will have new phones in 1-2 months so they say. My Omnia will last me till then :) Edited June 8, 2010 by thescope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zaryc Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 I am tempted to move on to i9000. Any body know quick way to port over all PIM from i900 to i9000? (WM to Android). PIMbackup files are great. Just wondering if anybody will write something on android to import the PIM over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Billus Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 Didn't want to make a huge announcement that I'm leaving my Omnia by creating a new thread. The main reason I'm leaving this device is that it is just slow and the touchscreen is almost, totally, un-responsive. I got frustrated with this device as I attempted to input a chicks number into my phone. Embarrassed, I had to have her put my number in and call me. The phone just wouldn't respond. I've also missed several calls as the phone just takes so damn long to respond. I know that I can replace the digitizer but the phone is really starting to show its age. In a way, it is kinda sad leaving behind a community that has been supportive of this device. Custom roms have improved the phone greatly in its lifetime. If it weren't for you guys, both rom developers and general users, I think I would have been banging my head against the wall everyday saying, "why did I buy this device". I hope that in some way or form that I have helped some of you with your device, software and/or just sharing general tips I've learned along the way. Although I did swear not to get another Samsung device again, I ended up getting this device, the Samsung Galaxy S i9000. Hopefully it will be "8,100" additionally better (lame joke intended). I was hoping to get a Qwerty device but yea, the Motorola Milestone doesn't seem to have that much oomph. I most likely will disable Touch Wiz as I'm not such a big fan of the UI. Hardware wise, this phone is perhaps the most powerful Android powered device and easily outdoes Snapdragon based devices based on the benchmarks that I have seen. The screen is actually the best out there, both in quality and responsiveness as you can see from many multi-touch demos (it beats the Desire and easily beats the Nexus One). I was hoping that the Motorola Droid X would be released in Australia soon but it doesn't seem likely; the original Milestone is just coming out. I did get this phone on a plan as it is cheaper that way rather than buying outright. For those curious about the official specs, here's what I ripped from GSM Arena General 2G Network - GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 3G Network - HSDPA 900 / 1900 / 2100 Size Dimensions - 122.4 x 64.2 x 9.9 mm Weight - 119 g Display Type - Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors Size - 480 x 800 pixels, 4.0 inches - TouchWiz 3.0 UI - Multi-touch input method - Accelerometer sensor for UI auto-rotate - Touch-sensitive controls - Proximity sensor for auto turn-off - Swype text input Sound Alert types - Vibration; MP3, WAV ringtones Speakerphone - Yes - 3.5 mm audio jack Memory Phonebook - Practically unlimited entries and fields, Photocall Call records - Practically unlimited Internal - 8 GB/16GB storage, 512 MB RAM, 2GB ROM Card slot -microSD, up to 32GB Data GPRS - Class 12 (4+1/3+2/2+3/1+4 slots), 32 - 48 kbps EDGE - Class 12 3G - HSDPA, 7.2 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps WLAN - Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n; DLNA Bluetooth - Yes, v3.0 with A2DP Infrared port - No USB - Yes, v2.0 microUSB Camera Primary - 5 MP, 2592 x 1944 pixels, autofocus Features - Geo-tagging, touch focus, face and smile detection Video - Yes, 720p@30fps Secondary - Yes, VGA Features OS - Android OS, v2.1 (Eclair) CPU - ARM Cortex A8 1GHz processor Messaging - SMS(threaded view), MMS, Email, Push Mail, IM, RSS Browser - HTML Radio - Stereo FM radio with RDS Games - Yes Colors - Black and Grey GPS - Yes, with A-GPS support Java - Via third party application - Social networking integration - Digital compass - MP4/DivX/WMV/H.264/H.263 player - MP3/WAV/eAAC+/AC3/FLAC player - Organizer - Image/video editor - Document editor (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF) - Google Search, Maps, Gmail, YouTube, Calendar, Google Talk, Picasa integration - Flash Lite v3.1 - Voice memo/dial/commands - T9 Battery - Standard battery, Li-Po 1500 mAh Stand-by - Up to 750 h (2G) / Up to 576 h (3G) Talk time - Up to 13 h 30 min (2G) / Up to 6 h 30 min (3G) If you guys want, when I get it (which should be in the next 2-3 days, hopefully), I'll try and whip up a quick review and answer any questions you may have. Again, I want to thank everyone here at the Omnia Board Forums at Modaco. I will still be sticking around for some time as there is a i9000 forum on here as well. Again, a big thank you to everyone.

Guest Gary Crutcher Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Got my Galaxy S 4 days ago. Other than a slight problem getting internet/mms to work with DTAC, it's a great phone - very fast and responsive. Guess I'll have to start learning to cook Galaxy S Android roms. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
