I can't put a diffinitive solution out for you. But you have to ignore some of the KIES messages like, USB connection lost and at the left screen CONNECT DEVICE because it drops connection during the download.once it gets to the decompressing files it is close to the point where it toggles the...

Its the buggy very though. They pulled it after release. 2.3.3 is likely a waste of time with all the bugs and security issues. Google release 2.3.4 for that reason so long ago. So why not the lastest platform release. I am going to wait.

Should be good with Telus 2.2 upgrade in that dept. I found I had to power off completely (removing battery may helps as well) Wait for 20 sec or more. Then power it all back up and see how it goes. The soft reboots it does is not good enough.

You are correct on no 2.2.4 but the Android site ---> Android 3.1 Platform Highlights | Android Developers shows 2.2.2 patch and fixes and the text messaging bug should be of concern you mention if you text a lot since it can be misdirected with private content. Anyway they do exist if you look...

upgrades/updates Well the OS updates for Android are free to start with from Google as they are for the IOS version for the IPhone 3 original. Hence the PC scenario does not apply. Having said that the updates to the newer 2.2.4 is not a upgrade but patched to both fix bugs and very important...

Updates I am shocked that Google had not for seen this as an issue knowing how OEM's and Carriers were handling other product and also knowing how Apple was doing it by the time they entered the market. With so many android phones I would expect more of a back lash from consumers. Maybe there...

I don't know about this Android platform. Google has 2.3.4 out fixing various bugs in the 2.3 code but there is no way to get the update specific to the phones radio hardware etc. We should be able to get them on demand from Google and not wait for the Carrier or Samsung to roll it out. It...

Battery use Graph You should check the battery use graph and see the statistics of where the battery consumption is used for. Depending on the OS. SETTINGS -> ABOUT PHONE -> BATTERY USE Some battery widgets also pull up the data and present it to you. I use Batter indicator by Darshan...

Must think we can read minds. Nope maybe next year.

Are you using Kies 2.0? You can copy to PC or PC to phone. Samsung support isn't the greatest and only a few reps know what they're talking about but the software build and built in apps are poor. HTC Desire is much better but the screen, speaker and lack of a PC based apps had me try this. As...

Run the battery down until it goes off (after the low battery warnings). Then fully charge it. Run it, that's use the phone for whatever to run battery down and dead yet again. Repeat until you've done this 3 times. When you get a new device you're suppose to fully charge it first and not use...

I have been finding my Fascinate slow responding and refreshing screens, toggle apps etc. I am on 2.2 as well. I had a HTC Desire for a while and its much faster. So much for this 1GHZ CPU, its no snapdragon!!

I would first recycle the battery as you're suppose to three times!!! Power off unnecessary data connections. you should get two days minimum with moderate use. I do and have tried two different Galaxy S Smartphones. If not successful no app is going to create power if the battery is bad or dying.

My phone is slight different but closest to the Vibrant build in the USA. So here goes. this is my 2nd Galaxy S here. the first one did NOT take the 2.2 update properly. Many function either did not work or work properly. I was only after I got a replacement that I found out there was a way to...

With the original working then the wiring and/or pin assignment for the 3.5mm jack is different. There is no standard and having the same plug means very little. The button opens and closes a loop circuit and how its applied can be different between phones. You'll need to look for one designed...
