It's true that back battery cover made of metal or still plastic as in original galaxy s? If yes can you give some photos of it

Nope! My came with plastic back cover. It has a little different pattern, but still plastic...was expecting to be out of metal. Battery is 1650 mAh and the metal frame is in light chrome, not in black chrome like the gt-I9000.

Galaxy S Plus I9001 Q&A
Hello to all!
I'm looking for a custom theme for galaxy s plus. I didn't find any yet. I really like the Criskello theme for sgs 9000. Is it possible to use a theme that's created for gt-i9000 or can I break my phone with it? Can somebody help me please. Is there also someone that can tell me how to convert the data system to ext4?

First time ever i hear about a a gt i9001 .
How does it differ from the i9000 ?
Have you confirmed that custom roms for i9000 doesnt work for i9001 ?

wow nice thanks for photos! well at least its not so shiny and finger print magnet as original galaxy s back cover......Does back cover fits on original galaxy s?

The back cover is also shiny. Maybe the picture isn9t so good. The structure seems to be underneath a transparent glossy layer. So also not finger marks friendly. Cover fits the old galaxy perfectly. It's totaly same size and shape.
The difference between gt-i9000 and gt-i9001 is in processor speed and gpu.
I haven't confirmed that custom roms for gt-i9000 don't work. I do not have a full rom to flash it if anything goes wrong..
If you know someone that can help...more than welcome.

Does the Galaxy S plus have another CPU or it's the same but overclocked?

I'm not shure. In Quadrant standard under system information it says CPU: ARMv7 Processor rev 2(v7l) Max freq 1200MHZ cores 1, architecture 7, bogo mips 799.53 hardware GT-I9001 Board, revision 2

so they just increased the cpu hz to 1200, anything else different.

Battery 1650 mAh.......and GPU Qualcomm, Adreno (TM) 205. As far as I know nothing else..

No one??

How to root samsung galaxy s i9001 plus??????

Anybody????
firmware: 2.3.3
baseband: I9001BUKE2
kernel: 2.6.35.7- perf
[email protected] #2
buildnumber: gingerbread.BUkE5
How to root??
Please help nobody knows that...??
score is 1200++
my 3 button combo doesnt work
Can anyone help me??

WHats your quadrant score?
It cant be slower than a normal sgs unless your comapring to a rooted or custom sgs
Maybe i9000 roms will work on it, as long as you use kernels that allow you to O/c so you can match the speed
i 9001 the was missing the original galaxy s had but I forget what

Hi,
I also had i9001 and if you cant enter download mode try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=879701
"adb reboot download" this command should help after you successfully installed SDK.

[Q & A] Ask ask your questions here !!

Hi guys
I was planning to buy the Samsung Galaxy S Advance as my second phone, it has an dual core 1 Ghz ST-Ericsson U8500 CPU with a Mali 400 GPU from ARM with 768 MB of RAM. and other similar features like the S plus.
According to the stericsson website the U8500 chip supports 1080p video recording but on the gsmarena specs it shows 720p with 30fps (maybe someday could unlock the full hd feature )
The main reason i posted this thread was to ask about it's GPU performance, as it includes the same GPU from the S2.
Will the performance be the same as the S2 ? or somewhere around that ?
And what about the U8500's performance ?

Another Question
Are Dual cores really fast compared to a single core
I own a S plus which has a Qualcomm msm8255t 1.4 Ghz single core cpu, which i find quite fast, it runs CM9 very smoothly.

I'm also considering this phone, and I hope you don't mind I through in another question: is it true what they say that with this being "an upgrade to the Galaxy S" and only available on limited markets we don't have to expect much development and selection in custom ROMs?
I am considering either this, or a Motorola Atrix 4G and I really don't know what to choose...

I actually like it's design, it's somewhat like a mix between the S2 and Galaxy Nexus, more like a baby Nexus.
anyways this phone has great potential as it beats the galaxy R (see benchmarks at gsmarena)

I don't think that it'll get much attention by devs. It's not that the phone's slow, but there won't be as many users as other Galaxy S phones have. You can see what happened to S Plus: it's faster than the Galaxy S, but not even supported by Cyanogenmod, with a very small community. The simple reason why the Galaxy S has more users now than the advanced one will ever have, is that the S once was the best phone out and many people bought it. The Plus and Advanced aren't. They get 1/2 cores when already 2/4 are standard.

LOL i just bought the device it's real smooth was playing some hd games and the performance is really good, the mali 400mp is doing its job just fine and multitasking is pretty good
I don't know about Germany but this device seems to be getting quite popular here in India

A friend got it... but he's Android noob .

I just looked on amazon - for 40€ more you get the S2. IMO it would be the better choice. More RAM, faster, awesome cam. Why didn't you buy it?

I will rather buy S2. I learn my lesson with i9001.

In Croatia "S Advance" is on T-Mobile more than 200£ cheaper SII, therefor I don't see a reason not to buy it, except that it probably will not get much attention from developers.

there's quite a big difference in the price between the advance and the S2, so i chose the Advance over the S2. (and also i liked its nexus like curve, the curved display looks really cool)
Anyways the phone is performing well, for the first time i could play GTA 3 (v1.3) with full graphics without any lags.
and now have started enjoying gaming.
I don't regret buying this phone, maybe when samsung releases ics for the phone it will perform similar to the S2

Nah, if you get past 300€, 40€ aren't a big difference. With the S2, you can replace your cam with the phone, with Advanced you can't take usefull pics. And just look at the awesome dev support. I think Sammy only released the Advanced because of the big critic, that none of the Galaxy S devices gets ICS. Now they can say 'upgrade to advanced' and make money with their bad support. But in the end it's your decision .

I know S2 is a better device but i still liked the look of the Advance, and was quite curious about the new NovaThor chipset
and btw there ain't no news of ICS for the galaxy Advance (I'm starting to worry now )
The phone seems to have some very nice motion controls (like when you double tap on the top of the phone it activates voice search, and the tilt to zoom function)

I'm confused between s advanced and Xperia arc S (both of them at same price ) but i'm scared to get s advance duo to lake of support/deve so what do u think about that nail16??

Xperia Arc S has the same configuration as the galaxy s plus so it's a single core device and has a adreno 205 (the gpu kinda sucks)
I say go for the Advance don't worry about the dev support, it seems to be a powerful phone it will soon be recognized by the devs

Ihope so =D

Theres No XDA support for the phone. So its a big no actually !!
In india also its not that famous :O..!!

Great phone,

[Q] Optimus Black vs Samsung galaxy S1 I9000

I have the possibility to exchange the Optimus black with Galaxy S i9000. What do you think,should I make the deal?

hhmmm....let me seee....
OB...............................................SGS
5MP + Flash.................................Just 5MP without flash
430 MB of RAM.............................380MB of RAM
SGX 530 GPU...............................SGX 540 GPU
Official ICS....................................No Official ICS
inly FEW active development..........Strong develoment and community
total score : 3 total score : 2
i know there is other factor to choose one of them....but actually, I like OB, camera and flash is my main priority(I have galaxy ace before OB, and I buy OB because of 720p videos), and plain offocial ICS with my own tweaks is enough for me.....
but ultra stable CM 9 & 10 and SGX 540 sound very appelaing to me....but 380MB RAM???? come on??!!!......actually, I am as confuse as you......

I'm considering the exchange because 3d games(GTA,Asphalt 7 etc) on OB don't work to smooth.I guess on Galaxy S I won't have problems ,because of the better gpu sgx540.

Lol... Samsung Galaxy S1 is a piece of sh*t.. I remember that I sent an app to my friend and his phone locked .. he had to remove the battery.. on my OB this never happened.
And OB has flash, S1 doesnt` have.
I just say NO .

if you don't need camera flash, go for it

Ob is better...
But not in the development way...

Another hope for JB/CM10 for Jena

Hi there,
With recent announcement of Galaxy Young DS it's (maybe) possible for us to get JB/CM10 for our Jena since the phone likely would be same with our Jena (spec wise, it's dual sim, processor upgraded to 1 Ghz and RAM to 768 MB)
here the comparison:
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=5280&idPhone2=3883
or atleast if this device real cheap, we could buy this to replace our Jena

[Q] Samsung galaxy s advance vs. Samsung galaxy s III mini

Hi.
I'll buy new phone but I need help... Which is better?? Exactly, I mean this:
Camera
Performance
SGSadvance has Auto-brightness and SGSIIImini no. So Which is better?
Thanks for the replies

First of all. SGSA WILL get 4.2.2, secondly, the S3 Mini is just so small. I recommend the Galaxy S Advance
Sent from my GT-I9070 using xda premium

I think S3 Mini is better! Below is a list of things that S3 Mini has but (sadly) S Advance doesn't...
- It has NFC Support.. although a variant of SGSA, the i9070P has NFC - BUT there is (almost) no "developments" for i9070P, so its not recommended for people who would want to try out Custom ROMs or Kernels...
- It has Bluetooth 4.0
- It has MORE RAM than SGSA (1024 MB vs 768 MB)
- Faster Internet/Data Speed (HSPA @ 14 mbps)
- I think it also has 4G support (HSPA+)
- It has support for microSDHC
- It does have Additional Display Support
- Its "technically" newer in market, so there is a chance that this phone might get a taste of Key Lime Pie update...
- Other Misc things.....
So yeah, Performance would surely be better in S3 mini, but both phones have the "same average" Camera or Video Recording/Playback quality....
But I'd still prefer S Advance because I hate that "curvy" shape of S3(mini).. whereas SGSA or S2 or S2 Plus has a much more BOLD shape which I prefer to hold

S Advance is a good budget phone... no doubt. But stop misdirecting the guy by telling him the S Advance is better than the S3 Mini...
With the S3 Mini you get... More RAM, stable version of JB, better camera (we're not talking megapixels here), better looks, more ROM support ( they have an almost stable CM10 ).. It's just a better phone.

Also,for camera,S3 mini has only a vga front camera.
The only real advantage of s3 mini is the more ram which I would trade it with the ambient light sensor if you ask me...

Yeah, the most important part is the ram (for multi-tasking) ambient light sensor is not that important to me.if your buying it but it does not have ''big diff'' with s advance because it has NovaThor processor too.

But you might want to look up the S2 Plus or LG Optimus L9 (great development for this device available)... I just bought an S2 Plus and got to say that it's great bang for buck as the price of the S2 Plus was just 50 bucks more than an S Advance, and the difference in features and performance is really wide.
