"HOW TO USE 3G?
select auto mode for gprs and 3g"
"Mostly all the android 2.3 mobs suport live tv"
"It is wifi ready"
"My battery is easily drained. I need to recharge it several times a day"
" The Samsung Galaxy Y in my experience after some days of usage is " a good phone ". Not the advanced one, but In terms of touch sensitivity, its pretty much responsive because its a capacitive touch screen. The Android experience is good. Its WiFi ready, b/ g/n. The only drawback was its resolution. The edges of the icons in close-up are not that fine compared to Sony Xperia of the same screen size. But its cheap compared to most Android phones"
" Love the phone!. Right price for the right features!. Affordable and stylish "
" It's superb! "
"How much does it cost for a backup battery for this phone?"
"Can delete apps downloaded by downloading "Apps Uninstaller" from android market or else you can transfer to memory card by downloading "Apps Backup" "
" For problems with the battery, download and use the android app called JuiceDefender "
" The only problem I came across (that too only once so far) is that the apps on SD are disappearing. I don't know if its the app prob or OS. However, on restarting the phone, everything became normal. Also as I said I got this issue only once "
" Facing a problem, it is automatically switched off when I complete a voice call "
"Why it always cry saying "Downloading Error"?, can't install any, says "Error"even when the phone is connected to wifi or packet data"
"lifespan of my battery is too short. I use a full battery only for 3 hrs solely texting!"
"Adjust the brightness of the phone. Go to settings then display, decrease it. It minimizes battery consumption"
"Galaxy Mini is better than Galaxy Y. 2.3OS and a better processor are not everything. Mini has a bigger screen, Adreno200 GPU which Samsung Y doesn't . So can't expect good HD games from Samsung Y. Furthermore, Mini has a better camera and OS can be upgraded to 2.3 too. Few are saying rooting will allow to play HDgames. But only rooting the phone will not allow you to play HDgames"
" It plays YouTube videos with ease as it has very fast wi-fi and it also comes with pre- loaded YouTube sofware "
" All says it has 190 mb internal memory, but why can't I keep data like songs and pictures on phone memory ? "
" After rootng Galaxy Y, we can install an app called Chainfire3d and with that we can set 16bit rendering mode and play hd games. like nfs shift, ganster hd etc. There's nothing wrong with it "
" The cheap beautiful wonder !
Can't compare with any. Don't miss this "
" The problem is low speaker sound "
" Best is "Lookout" app for Security & Antivirus purposes "
" I suggest HTC Explorer which prices at about rs.10000. In galaxy y specs, they do not describe graphic gpu which is necessary for playing hd games "
" It does not have a secondary camera, so no video calls for the expatriated husband "
" It has 256mb for RAM "
" The apps I downloaded are gone. Cant see those apps in the download folder "
" It supports video chat but with the help of tango app "
" The Broadcom Videocore GPU is not optimized for most 3D games that work with Adreno 200 GPUs that comes with 600mhz Qualcomm processor phones available in the same price range. Still a good buy if you are unlikely to download 3D games or need to type a lot "
" Been using it for almost a week now and I can say the price is worth it. 2mp camera is ok. I don't see much trouble with it, WIFI is good as well as browser. Keypad is bit tough to use but you can get used to it after some time. Auto rotation also present. As for the processor, I don't think 832 mhz is slow as the phone responds to my actions very quick and I can play mp3 or use fm, surf the net with wifi and send sms all at the same time with comfort, speed and ease. Didn't download any apps yet as I am new to android phones and still having the feel of it. Overall, I can say if you have a low budget, you can go for it. Can't compare it to other Galaxy Models, but I can say it's good enough for me "
" There is no flash support "
" Speakers embarrass you amid your friends. You’ll have to carry portable speakers with you "

" Android market works perfectly on mine "
" After talking, it is automatically restarted "
" No adobe flash "
" Can make voice calls by skype. Iam using it since one month, but video calls not supported. However you can download tango for video calls from market "
" Touch keypad does not have light, so it creats problems in dark "
" I have this phone with me for last 2 weeks. The phone reboots on its own without any obvious reason. This happens even when the phone is not in use and is just lying idle "
" Samsung Galaxy Y is the greatest innovation in the Entry Level Anroid Phone Market "
" Came to know last week that android doesnt support ad hoc "
" I wish it had a dedicated camera key, 'cause it's really hard to take self-portraits "
"Clear sound in mp3"
"It doesn't support hd games like Modern Combat, Asphalt 5, Gangster west coast etc. For good hd games, you need Adreno200 gpu. But Samsung Y doesn't have adreno200 GPU, so no hd games"
"As there is no Adreno200 GPU, no good hd games like Modern Combat, Asphalt 5, Gangster Westcoast, NFS Shift etc"
"Can stream videos using the internet browser"
"Auto rotation does not work properly"
"Only rooting your phone will not allow you to play hd games"

" LG Optimus p500 is much better than galaxy y (in same price) in all important aspects
1. LG has better display resolution (180 ppi)
2. More ram(512mb) and internal memory
3. Better camera with autofocus
4. Video format is vga
5. Most importantly LG has ARM 11 processor while Y has ARM 6
6. Another critical issue is battery . LG gives 1500 mah but y has only a 1200 mah battery
7. LG has divx, xvid, wmv ,wma support while y hasnt
8. In addition, LG has fantastic sound quality than y in both headphone and speaker"
"I am so excited that I can connect to internet by using galaxy y as a Wi-fi hub. At a time it can connect upto 5 devices to browse internet"
"Update is available to galaxy y, 2.3.6 android version"
"Not sure what is in update but the update failed for the first time and success in the second time. But now every time screen locks, the memory card is automatically removed after some time. And this is happening after update. Not sure how to fix it. When the memory card removed, all the applications running from mmc stop and somtimes phone reboots automatically. I will not suggest the update"
"Got the update notification, it was well downloaded. But the preparation step kept going on for an hour and nothing happened. I disconnected and tried again but unable to update"
"Battery... it is made in China ! . As compared to my galaxy mini which is made in korea, I can say that my Galaxy Mini lasts long"
"Installed nfs shift (112MB), it opens but cant see anything! . Only white screen with some portions of the game. But sound works. Is there any solution for this.,???"
"6 hours of continuous talktime, 4, 5 hrs with incessant browsing, I can give 85/100 for the battery. And voice clarity while talking, especially is far better"

"The RAM size is 290MB"
"256Mb"
"Feels like an iPhone. Everything works. I play on this, read my emails, chat, watch youtube. Superb!. I haven't even touched my iPhone4 the entire week since I got my Galaxy Y. It can really replace the iPhone. If you are looking for a cheap iPhoney device, This is it! "
"256MB RAM, 164MB storage"
"Hey dude, it has 300MB of RAM"
Q: " Plz tell me how can I install all applications into memory card ? I dont want to install any applicatoin in phone memory"
A: " Go to task manager, open the app you hav downloaded . There will be an option to move to memory card. Just click it "

"Pros far exceed the cons"
"You can't go wrong with this one"

"Keypad is too small, I have to type carefully"
" 500MB of ram, 256K HVGA clear screen, stock music player supports DiVx/XviD which none of its competitors does, difference is less than 55$. Go for LG Optimus one P500 "

" For a comparision, Sony Xperia X8 has android 1.6 & it is upgradable to 2.1 only. Internal memory is only 128mb. As it has 1.6os you can't store apps in your sd card. If you compare Samsung y with x8,I will recomend Samsung Y coz it has 2.3 os and better processor "

If we can root the phone, we can install chainfire 3d and reduce game graphics to 16- bit mode and run games. But sadly no root is available so far. Better go for micromax a70 or galaxy mini as they both have Adreno GPU "
" Poor coz it has a low-end GPU which runs opengl platform ver. Es 1.1. Andreno GPU 200 has open ver. ES gl 2.0 which is advanced. I am using it. You cant play HD games unless you root the phone and install chainfire3d "
