i had this phone for few months. it was a nice phone with great specs, until it was dead. my advice to you all:
-update to more stable firmware
-be careful with trackball
-dont install apps n themes from untrusted sources
-dont install multiple security program

my phone freezed at samsung logo screen so decided to sell it. idk why coz there was no problem whatsoever before. if u wanna buy this phone, experience the fun but dont expect too much. next time, buy a more user-friendly or popular phone. btw im still using samsung

i use this phone for 6 month, and im still satisfied of it.
-big display
-decent sounds
-internet works fine(i've no wi-fi,just using operator conection)
-gps software i use garmin xt and it works fine.
-baterry 2-5 days,depends of usage(those who complain about baterry,try to charge it turned off,it last longer).
Im Not Satisfied by camera takin pictures.Coz on the phone looks fine , but when i dowload images to PC,images are darker.
Has any1 a solution for improving camera images quality?tnx

Just to clear some minds, i've installed the new firmware following osama's instructions and it works fine. i've tried the wifi fw first but my phone is not wifi so i guess that you need both firmware and wifi hardware on your phone (i550w) otherwhise it won't work! so i'm using i550XXHH1 in Portuguese and i just had to set my www, wap and mms settings for my operator. i can advise some gps softwares like navigon, garmin xt or ndrive, they work just fine with internal gps receiver.
thankz ;D

If not mistaken this theme called 'Abstract'.

MIF/MBM/SEL files: Z:\resource\skin\*.*

Will you share it if you have it?
Thank you if you share it...!
