My Top Paid apps are missing in my android market, anyone got this or any idea why this could be happening?
Are they capatible with N1's V2.1? I C your in the LV hood!

are you having troubles with it too?
No, since I'm new to this market. But, I saw somewhere that apps not working (or just updated to work on the mkt) w/2.1 are not showing up for the N1...
happened to me when i first rooted my phone. note that i rooted it before i ever even put in my sim card, but i think it had to do with that.
fixed it by wiping/factory resetting with my sim card in.
How does it work in Nexus market place? If you've already paid for an application, and have uninstall it say temporarily, will you be charged again when you re-download it?
If you bought it from a different market place, how will it know that you're already a paying customer in Nexus market place?
Doesn't matter.. if you've bought an app you can download it again for free. Apps I paid for a year ago on my G1 show up.
Tony, thanks for your reply. Good to hear that info on ownership is shared across the various markets.
if you mean the top paid apps tab in the marketplace app i was missing that also. i had started using the phone without a sim in it, so i wiped everything and restarted with sim in it right away and the top paid tab was back

That would be quite lame otherwise!
Paid apps tab
I had the paid app tab before. Today I just used the phone without a sim for the first time then put the sim back and now the paid app tab is not there anymore. Anyone having the same issue?
I just got my Galaxy S about a week ago and I was very disappointed to see it didn't have Swype installed. I also noticed it was missing the SocialHub app which, doesn't really break my heart but was more of a "Huh..." moment. I do know the Korean version is slightly different since it includes the DMB Antenna for TV and whatnot but I was curious if anyone else knew about this and if there's a way I can get Swype on my phone. I'd also like to flash some new firmware on here because my Galaxy S is lagging quite a bit and at times is completely unresponsive in which I have to either attempt to power off or just remove the battery. I am using a task killer but I think it's more than just killing a few apps to solve my problems. It really doesn't seem to be nearly as snappy as I've seen in several videos. Hope someone can answer some of my concerns. Thanks!
Not sure if you tried this.
Try long press the text input field until the "input method" dialog box appears. Swype should be selectable from the box.
As for it being unresponsive, before trying to flash the new firmware, try to find a program call 'Advance task killer" and have it automatically kills useless tasks that continues to run in the background.
Other than that, if you are still unhappy, then flash away!

And if it does not appear for selection, go into setting, locale and see if Swype is there but unticked. If unticked, you should tick it before it can be eligible for selection.
Being laggy is a serious issue affecting all models, it seems. I'm too very disappointed with that, but I'm waiting for Froyo to come around to fix it.
I suggest you to flash JG3 or JG5 firmware. My SSGS seems faster than the original firmware after flashing. However, you should use Titanium backup to backup some Korean app that you like.
This European firmware has Swype kb, I can guarantee.

Hey tra, thanks for this.
Which one do you use? Do you have a direct link to it? What if you want to restore back to way it look (including the Telco customization) before handing in for servicing and warranty? Any idea how to back up your firmware first?

That's a fine way to brick the phone.
22.Can I flash an Asian ROM on my European device or vice versa?
Flashing should work without any problems. There are no known compatibility issues as of now. If any should arise, flashing back to Asian firmware is always possible.
Check your current ROM by dialing *#1234* to make sure you do not have a Korean variant of the phone (which is NOT compatible!).

@eaglesteve & @kcharng
I tried and checked both suggestions when I first got the phone because I really wanted to try Swype but didn't see the option. Only Samsung Keyboard existed. Now I have that and Swiftkey Beta since I installed it.
@kcharng
I do have Advance task killer installed and have been using it at times but for the most part it's pretty laggy. There's also the ever occuring GPS issue as well and I've had the camera mode sort of lock itself on my phone so I can't press the home button to exit. I'm hoping there's a Korean firmware that I can flash to fix it all or that Froyo will be my Godsend.
Thanks everyone for the helpful and kind replies btw. I was afraid I'd get flamed, call it first post jitters.

I also have the Korean Galaxy S. I had my Korean friend call up Samsung Service to deal with some of my issues. They didn't include Swype because of the double consonants in the Hangul, seems dumb that they didn't have an English only option. I've tried to use the apk from the I9000 but it just FC on me. The stock keyboard, really, really sucks on the Korean version, but right now I'm using Swiftkey which is really great for prediction but kind of frustrating otherwise. I've heard the Droid X has a great keyboard, so I'll try that soon.
I personally only manually kill apps with ATK, I don't let it background. At times I get laggy, but overall I find the device very responsive. FYI, if you didn't know they've put out two firmware updates already for the Korean version, connect to Kies if you haven't already.
Please reply or PM me if you have any questions. I wouldn't change the firmware, Korean version isn't easy to get international support for and also we will be the first to get Froyo, no reason to delay that! Also, I've noticed other features missing, like text-to-speech isn't as universal in our version.
Also you can try to root your phone.it is worth it just to run app like auto killer, cache cleaner, titanium backup.
Personally auto kilter is a much better app than ATK.

Is there any support here or elsewhere for the Korean Root? Then again, I think I'd wait at least 2-4 weeks until I get Froyo before rooting.

I think the biggest missing feature is tethering, but I guess that'll come with Froyo anyways and SKTelecom has advertised they'll move to unlimited data with free tethering in August to support this and other devices on plans 55,000 won and up.
*Edit* Tethering is not missing, I just didn't know the name of it, it's found in the same exact place as it is in the international version, wireless & network, mobile AP.

I appreciate the link one of the translations of saw for a search said something along the lines of froyo wasn't much fastet, of course that can actually mean it is much faster and that not going somewhere else (I shouldv'e probably looked at the original for a better guess)

Does anyone know when we can upgrade the data plan?
Swype
Not sure if you've already discovered this but..
I just upgraded my korean galaxy s firmware to DH09 with Samsung Kies and it included swype and a really good RAM clearer. Makes it a bit more snappy. Actually it may be too good because it can clear the widgets out to.
Not sure what else it has yet. Still playing with it. Actually someone just called me and an option to record the phone call was on the screen.... Can't say I'll ever use it but interesting.
If this is what Eclair 2.1 is like then Froyo 2.2 is going to be amazing
Cheers

Hi I'm new to this site and new to my phone as well. I also have the korean version of the Galaxy S and was able to upgrade to DH09. Im sorry but do you mean when you say good RAM clearer? I noticed that my phone has 326 RAM and the I9000 has 576MB RAm. Is there a big difference on that? Also, can you tell me where I can find the radio? I only found the radio app in the TV widget. But if I try scanning channels, it can't find any. Is it because I'm in the Philippines?
Does your phone also limits sms characters to 80 letters? Coz mine does, and the standard number of characters in the Philippines is 160. But I just downloaded handcent sms and I was able to send more characters
Thanks in advance!
I'll try to update this thread since we don't get enough answers! I kind of think we should try to get an "official Korean FAQ" going, as this thread is inappropriately labeled for general questions and issues going forward. Also, I edited one of my previous posts bc I'm a noob who couldn't find the tethering settings, I believe at the time of writting it was available, though it could've come in a fw update I think I just overlooked it.
Answering in reverse chronological order:

Hopefully your radio is an easy fix, I had a similar problem with the DMB until I figured out how to work it. I did a little test just now to make sure the functionality is essentially the same, and in my experience, - it is.
On the top right corner of the device (if you are looking at the screen) you will notice a little cutout break in the device, this is the DMB antenna. In my apartment it is the only way I can find radio stations, even having headphones in (the way normal phones sans tv antennas work to get stations) wont work without having the antenna up and out. Obviously an eye-sore and a bit of a design flaw, imho assuming it can try an alternate if both are present, however, I don't have much of a use for the radio so I can look past it and I don't even fully understand the need for it with the TV but Korean's are just used to having these janky antennas protruding from their phones. My iRiver mp3 player didn't even need a DMB antenna to pick up stations, it worked fine with headphones, I'm not really sure why they necessitated the need for the antenna.
In my test, the only radio stations that came up were in the national scan, but this is probably location dependent, try to scan metro and national to see if you can find what you are looking for, if nothing comes up there is a technical problem with frequencies being scanned or something else.
Regarding the memory, this is how all the SGS variants report their available memory. No SGS, AFAIK, reports the full amount of memory and there has been plenty of debate on how much memory the units actually shipped and last I read Samsung never released an official presser on the quantity. These questions might have been answered over time, by Samsung or teardowns, or what have you, but this isn't unique to the SHW-m110s.
Regarding the SMS letters. We have an 80 byte limit on our phones, this means 80 english characters and spaces and each Korean syllable (composed of upto 4 characters, or letters if you will) will count as 2 bytes. I'll assume this has something to do with the carrier restrictions on SMS/MMS. Handcent might help us get around this, but might not, if it's truly a carrier issue. In your case, have you tried just sending something with 100 characters? For us it's a "soft-limit", meaning we can type 150 characters but it requires to be switched over to MMS, but you might not find the same with your carrier. Do a test if you like, especially if you prefer the stock app it's worth a test.Try to send a bigger text and check online to see how they charged you. In my case it automatically switches to MMS and they are treated the same for cost/phone plan purposes so it makes no difference to me (with the exception of having to switch 3G on when I have it disabled, ugh). With my previous dumbphone my long text messages would actually be sent as 2 text messages, another thing you should check to make sure isn't an issue to you (I think handcent would be able to get around this, again, I think this is a Korean carrier limit but it doesn't change our pricing...as a matter of fact, if handcent sent 2 50 character messages it would be more "expensive" if we go over our limit than if we sent 1 100 character MMS.
Hope that helps!

Yeah, I did discover that, also the latest firmware gives faster 3G data connections. If you are ever wondering what is going on with the FW upgrade go to naver and search "갤럭시s ____" fill the blank in with the updated FW build. Then translate the results from the page you've found.
Regarding Swype specifically, they gave us an old build, which is a bit disappointing. The latest/greatest has voice input, amongst other things. Oh well, there is always tomorrow.

It seems that the Korean government is currently blocking this for competition reasons. This really pisses me off because, first, at least last year KT was growing faster than SK which means SK should be given every opportunity to make changes. Second, and more importantly, one of the president's platforms was decreasing the price of wireless services, this move would have to be followed by a similar move by KT if they want to be competitive so we'd all have cheaper options for massive data. I'm about 70% sure I'll write him a letter personally, I just think it'll be thrown in the trash because a 6 year old could probably articulate a better argument in Korean than me, of course I could have someone do the translating but I actually want them to be my words and it to be that much more authentic.
Hi,
Yes I do think we should have our own thread. It will be good in sharing things we find out about our phone. Our country doesn't support DMB yet that's the reason why I think the Radio or TV is not working. I found a link giving all the apk files and I tried copying it to my phone. But still it won't work. I guess I really won't be able to make it work. I found the list of all the apps from android forums.
I tried installing Handcent SMS and I was able to address the 80characters problem. Now I can send up to 160 characters per message.
I'm excited to see what Froyo can do for our phone.

Yeah, I'll write something up and post a new thread within a week. I'll try to get it translated to Korean because at least a few prominent hackers in Korea visit so if they can share their knowledge in either language at least we can start to ask questions a bit easier and in a setting we are more comfortable. Plus, if we get their devs in house a bit more then the rest of the GS community can learn more from them.
Anywho, I'm glad you replied because I have a question. What is the cellular radio frequencies and technologies you use in the Philippines. I want to know more about the world comparability of this phone, so any info you have on the radio tech in your area and what bands this can access would be great.
I am curious, what else is there besides tether apps, that we can put on here that the evil ATT doesn't want us to have.
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
Well I haven't found too many other apps in the normal Market that aren't in the ATT one beside the Tethering software. Then again turn the phone to Airplane mode while on a Wifi network and you are no longer filtered by ATT so you can install what ever you want as long as you have root.
Lol...apparently ATT blocked a game called Toss It by Boolba Labs because theirs an option to toss an iPhone into the trash can. Lol.
Is it..."legal" that ATT cab filter apps they choose?? I mean they're already blocking installing third party apps. I mean what "legit" reason could they come up with?
swype has to be sideloaded
i'd be more concerned with removing the junk at&t wants you to have rather than putting stuff they may not like on there!

Does anyone know how to bypass the carrier-specific Android market? I know that the apps can be submitted to the market for a specific carrier, so is there a way to fool the market into thinking the phone is on a different carrier?
Basically, I'd like to download some apps (AT&T U-verse, Google Car Home, etc.) that are blocked on Sprint's Android Market. I know you can find the apk's on XDA and such, but I'm wondering if there's a more direct route?
Might be a bit cliche but you can find those apps on some alternative market apps like applanet. I will not post a link to it here as that app leads to downloading copyrighted apps for free and is to the best of my knowledge illegal and frowned on my the majority of the Android community.

Instead do a search of the sprintdroids forum for "google-remote-nukes-android-malware-off-phones-second-time-ever"

Very Helpful thank you
There actually is a tweak for changing the carrier Market sees so you can see more apps. Obviously that is NOT any kind of security risk since those are still MARKET APPS.
I don't remember off the top of my head but it had to do with downloading Gmail, since that's not normally something you can do from the Market. It was related to CyanogenMod. I hope that helps.
There are also plenty of good legitimate markets out there like AppBrain, which I much prefer to the regular Market for finding cool new apps.
I bought my Galaxy S7 Edge a week ago and rooted immediately. I just noticed today that I actually don't have ANY Sprint apps on my phone. This is a mixed blessing... most of them are bloat but some I'd like to have, such as Voicemail (I have no voicemail app right now) and maybe SprintZone.
Is this normal for root users? Or was this because I didn't go through all the setups prior to rooting my phone?
Is there a way to get the apps I need back (or get them from Sprint)? Sprint's website wasn't helpful in getting an answer... and I would search more here on XDA but their search is down right now.

I need Voicemail. I probably want SprintZone. If I even knew what was supposed to come with the phone I may want one or two others, but the voicemail is the biggie.
I'd also like to know if my immediate root played a role in not getting the Sprint apps... for future reference.
Wait. I just "found" Voicemail... it was disabled. Several other apps are disabled, too.
I think I'm alright for a bit until I can figure out what I'm doing.
Most of sprints app are NOT in the play store but baked in the actually stock rom. You'll have to search around for the apk's if you can't find them on your rooted phone.

Many of Sprint's apps are downloaded as part of the activation process, so if you didn't go through that process, it would explain why you don't have them.
