did u try standing under open sky and using a software like gpstest.... duh...

^ why not use launcher pro instead?

^ seems to be a rom related issue rather than battery issue, as battery can't go bad before 1 year at least; I am getting fullday battery life with data+wifi on 24x7; check to see that all auto updation of facebook/twitter sync and any other sync is set to at least 4-6 hour interval.... if not, revert to stock di18 using odin to flash it...

exactly amit... I too have thought many times of leaving reliance, but always fall short due to the ultra low cost of my latest handsets (at least 10-12K less than the gsm counterparts) and unbeatable unlimited 1x packages and lowest tarrifs... even after heavy usage my total monthly bills hardly cross 5-600 bucks and thats unbeatable anywhere in the world with 24x7 data...

there cannot be any major difference from international model; and if the international one is on 2.1 so will this one be too...

^ tumne dilli theek se nahi dhoondhi; meerut jaisi choti jagah par khule aam mil raha hai; palika tak mein mil jaayega; expect street prices between 11-12k...

^ do not get stuck with bada os in current tech scenario... no scope like android...

^ dang se pado sab log.... he said 6K+ on his tag line so its 26K only bhai log..... duh...

u were lucky; i have lost 2 phones to usps and indian postal *astards...

the screen is only 3.6" - disappointing... no front facing camera for video chat

^ seeing the current developments, I think you have got a very valid point there chirag... lagta hai nexus-s mangana hi padega... MNP is confirmed for 22nd January here in UP as per newspaper reports today...

^^ this has already been posted before, I presume...

Congrats Kamal babu... Your posts are quite refreshing and a departure from amongst the many idiotic one's that we have to endure...

^ It is because Reliance is actively using US (un)officially to test these foreign handsets and thereby provide world class backbone and it plans to launch these latest handsets very soon vis-a'-vis their foreign counterparts...

Reply received today from Samsung Service USA regarding update for EPIC - Samsungservice Samsung Service@dkaile We want Galaxy S owners to have simple/reliable upgrade. We are running tests due to complexity/unique functionality. Samsungservice Samsung Service@dkaile We are working to make the Android 2.2/Froyo upgrade available to all U.S. Galaxy S owners as soon as possible. Samsungservice Samsung Service@dkaile No official statement about updating US Galaxy S line to 2.3 has been made & we aren't prepared to discuss this at this time.

^ root your optimus one and remove all unnecessary apps u dont want;

if u dont mind full touchscreen, then lg optimus ONE is the best bet for you... just ensure u get optimus ONE and not lg optimus...

^ uninstalling any app you have installed (like e.g. 1clicklagfix) is to be done through settings-apps like you would do for any other app... duh... I thought that was evident... the solution I have posted is NOT for lag fix but for unbricking your phone if it gets stuck on black screen after froyo update... @all - there is some inherent lag is Samsung Galaxy-S GSM which was there since beginning and is still there even after froyo update but I found that it reduces itself with time... otherwise you can use 1clicklagfix or similar again after froyo update....

@skssha - I think this is not the topic for phone comparison.. this is the more appropriate topic for your question - Kindly post your query there or read that topic to reach a conclusion...

^ that would have sorted out any lag issues rather than going to the service centre C's...

^ if u are updating from 2.1, its preferable; however in ur case if u hv just unboxed and not synced any data to google servers, then u can proceed straightaway with the update...

^ Only thing is that people dont follow some basic's of andoid while updating; If you do a factory reset while in 2.1 and then upgrade and then again do a factory reset after coming on 2.2 before starting to use, you will have zero lag issues... this is equivalent to wipe through custom recovery... jfyi...

I noticed its snowing on Rimweb this morning.... NICE TOUCH... keep it up.. though it did seemed to make Rimweb slightly laggy if multiple windows of Rimweb were open... Gives a nice cool touch to our site though...

@vinay - so did u finally keep the ideos or return it back? let me know your feedback if you kept it...

^ lolz...keep realistic expectations... its not the magic genie...
