MATE YOU GOT CONFUSED

look do you need to root? for a specific reason? like to remove a certain aspect of the phone? no? then dont ok seriously i get annoyed with people who buy a device...it work perfect and then they hear sum "crap" about rooting blah blah blah = better......it doesnt,

if your phone is working leave it alone.
u say your new..... dont mess with things if you have no reason,. u could f%ck your phone.....for no reason,

if you root it you might not get the official gingerbread update from samsung,

then you will be stuck with the beta from samfirmware ......gprs probs, camera probs, battery probs, memory probs,

there is no reason right now,.....custom roms? theres isnt any worth a feck right now,



srry to be blunt but im trying to be kind by being harsh,,,,,

 

[chismay]

to conclude and to follow with sum nice,

try "phonemypc" remote access with live screenshot to "your" pc screen.

jango radio - for cool internet radio with up-to-date tunes uk-usa

speedx - cool, 3d game "everyone" has

skyfire-internet-browser watch full episodes and movies in "flash" using this browser.

search market for "free music download" this app lets you download pretty-much any song/music and the select an area of the song to use as a ringtone.

applanet- download the applanet-app to download the paid versions of apps from normal market but you dont pay! yay!

battery widget solo- to show in number percentage how much battery you have left.

winds of steel - war-fighter-plane game with amazing graphics that works even on LOW end devices (lower proccessor power)

mario-simlulator...lmao find it and download it,,,,,jump with phone in hand and sound like mario hitting ? box...then coin noises. lmao ill send it ot you if you want it soo fecking funny,


i dont mean any offence in any of my pre-post i just come over strong some times srry in advance.

Wow Chismay, u've got a serious amount of apps on your Ace!!
How many of those are on the phone & how many on the SD card?
Does the Ace still perform well, speed/transitions etc..? My few apps look a bit sad now! Cheers. GrahamF. London.

Yeah brothers in arms and ganstar 2 lag a bit but ganstar is playable

 

[dtabs]

Hi guys... i cant find Applanet in the market :/ Anyone have any idea?

 

[chismay]

if you lag try using the program monitor widget go to ram and clear memory, wait a few minutes for the main launcher and everything to reset you will notice you have a fair amount more ram to use.

=smoother

 

[chismay]

on reflect dont use applanet.

i didnt and its bullshit anyway most of the apps are very outdated and are simply the same trials allready available on android market,.

plus the applanet sever has not been working for like 2 weeks now, also certain apps have been removed from the a-market because they have been confirmed to have the known android malware on them.

 

[chismay]

erm just so you guys know i cant help you out with anything to do with the games anymore
sorry but thats the rules here.
