n00b question cos I'm buying android... They don't support wap? Meaning.. I won't be able to browse without using 3g?
Click to expand...
My Legend works on GPRS and EDGE. I never used 3G. WAP is history. With full HTML browser and decent speed internet connectivity (GPRS/EDGE) on most smartphones, nobody uses wap anymore.

I am looking for a phone
Budget eight thousand to ten thousand
Looking for a non android phone
Because they do not support wap.
Music is the deal breaker.
I like SE mega bass but did not like nokia 523* with pl-11 for music.
Also would want better camera, wi fi, 3g, .jar file support (since some samsung phones do not support them i.e corby, star, pixon that i know of)
If phone gets charged through usb during pc sync nothing like it
Thanks in advance. :)

Did you check SE Zylo? If you can spend 11k-12k, you can get SE Elm or Hazel or yari. All three are superb phones.

they can but of course will let you use 3g.
the thing is reliance (GSM service) i use has only wap connection active.
Gives me good speeds on a Edge network (30KB/sec)
would not want to change provider for a phone plus all those phones work on GPRS not WAP(Wap uses a proxy server limited to a Port)
GPRS plans are still expensive barring Tata docomo and aircel(speed =Pathetic).
Rcomnet is still not active in mah.
plus speeds are good i am using wap connection to my PC and phone SE W350.

My needs - good music based phone with a decent camera and a decent screen (>2.2") budget 5K(max 6K)

Never rely on gsmarena's user comment. Don't know where they come from. 99% of them do nothing but complain on all of the phones. Inside 6k, check Nokia 6303.

few noob question since I am considering to buy my 1st android/touch phone which will be used for mails , stock market etc , I am not too much in Social networking .

1 ) Samsung Galaxy 3 is having little low resulution of WQVGA (240 x 400 pixel) resolution , so does it effect on apps from android market , I mean those apps will work on such resolution or not ? or it require bigger resolution to run such apps ?

2 ) can we save those apps on our memory card yet or not ?

1. shouldn't effect apps since 2.x versions of Android based apps run irrespective of display resolution.

2. not yet. you need Froyo. You can root the android device, install Froyo build or install apps2sd tool to move apps to sd card.

How is the Spice Mi-300? Spice mi 300 Is it better than Samsung galaxy 3? Also, what is there any difference between Samsung I5800 and I5801? Which is better of the two? Are both available in the market?
Click to expand...

Spice mi 300 mas android 1.6 but if one can upgrade it then fine because galaxy 3 has android 2.1

and one can understand the difference between spice and samsung

even galaxy 3's 3mp cam would be better than spice mi 300's 5mp cam

Samsung Galaxy 3 and Galaxy Apollo review: Galactic twins - GSMArena.com

check it for difference between I5800 and I5801

--- Updated Post - Automerged ---

Actually the major difference is that I5801 is locked to orange and T mobile

I5800 is unlocked for all networks
