If I root my phone, would my warranty become null ??? :confused:
[General Questions and Answers] :
Nope.... If you *Unlock Your Bootloader* then your Warranty Becomes Void. Rooting does not require to Unlock your Bootloader. You can root your phone even on Locked Bootloader. So technically speaking, no, just rooting DOES NOT VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

Repartion NAND

consider to what i recall the topic provide us with a tool to edit the pit file which used under ODIN when checking re partition check OK

what i mean the easy way i suffer from being short of 1.7 GB as virtual sd-card which named "SD-CARD" while our device shipped with 4GB

so mu question is if one of the hero , die hard Samsung owner could confirm that by shrinking the SD-CARD and gain it's space to user data or even system as the recent JB ROM for SII OK

that's part one

the part two is how to mount the EXT-SD-CARD as SD-CARD so the application data by default located in so we will not need any third party or re partition sd card

thanks very much for this step by step approach eventhough i do not use samsung galaxy s duo but i believe i will help my friends with these simplified steps. i have been able to root a phone i bought from china called gionee gn700w. it is also a dual sim with functions and specifications like the s duo. i will love to install a Custom Rom from the jelly bean family.

Also, i love what the s duo can do with regards with it beautiful icons app and colourful interfaces and fastness. my question is, is it possible to install the samsung galaxy s duo custom Rom or install a rather updated version such as the jelly bean 4.1 since this a dual sim phone with dual functionalities?

your asistance will be much appreciated. thanks in advance.

DFU Mode

Hi guys

Just wondering is it possible to enter into DFU Mode in Samsung Galaxy or any Android phone for that matter like you do in iPhones?

I am wondering how these companies load their software first time in their phones ?
[General Questions and Answers] JoJo2211:
Sure. It's called the "Download Mode" in Samsung phones. Press and hold Vol Down key + home button + powerbutton at the same time to enter the download mode.

[General Questions and Answers] 92MB:
DFU Mode

I do not think so. DFU mode is just like installing software on a hard disk in a computer. It replaces not just the OS (as in jailbreaking) but the

bootloader firmware as well. DFU mode performs a similar function to restore mode, except that in DFU mode, the iPhone never even tries

to boot OS X. It’s kind of like booting a PC off a restore disc, which then replaces your OS with a pristine installation.

you obviously have problems with your SIM card,better contact with your carrier .

For the second problem, you better look up your "Message Center" of your second sim, for that go to messaging > settings > message centre (under Text message settings) and change the message center number due to your carrier's suggest.

Disappointed on the performance

I have a S7562 for 3 months right now. And I'm disappointed on the performance of this phone. It can't carry well the interface, it seems always laggy, I need to close all apps all the time so it don't became sluggish.

Basic Features like making a call is slow too. Contacts and Dialer app takes too much to load.

I compared it with my friends Galaxy Y 5360, LG Optimus Net Dual P698 and Galaxy Ace 5830. And all phones are faster the mine, even using a ARMv6 CPUs clocked at 800Mhz. I have about 100 contacts and my friend with the Galaxy Y has about 600 and it opens faster.

In my opinion this could be considered a bug, I paid more to get less.

Maybe Samsung made a mistake using ICS in this phone, maybe Gingerbread would deliver a better user experience.

I really hope that Samsung fix this issues, this phone performance isn't suitable for its category and price. Maybe with JellyBean this can be fixed.

you can disable power saving mode from the notification panel.... or you can change the power saving options from settings-->power saving--> and uncheck CPU power saving.

This will definitely improve your device performance...:highfive:
[General Questions and Answers] ferrazrafael:
All this report that I gave is without the use of power saving, when you enable power saving things just get worst. For this phone power saving is only useful when you are expecting a call and you battery is low. because it slows down too much the phone.

Hi can anybody (senior member) make a list of applications that can be safely disabled to save ram...

I had disabled

chaton (whatsapp user) .,

Samsung apps (play store is better) ,

my music (never used) ,

my movies (never used),

talk (never used) ,

google+ (never used) ,

Google map (sygic user) .

After disabling these apps now my ram is at 415 MB, and earlier it was 530 MB around...

I had noticed great improvement in lagging and battery life. You ppl can also try this,

To disable system apps, and go to SETTING -> APPLICATION MANAGER - >ALL TAB - > Select app u wanna disable and then disable it.
