Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360 User Manual & Tech Specs

By 139 Comments

First of all, let me clear the means of “Y” letter on this Samsung Galaxy Y for. It actually stand for Young. Y for Young. By this, we could make a conclusion that Galaxy Y by Samsung is specially marketed for teenager and also anyone who cover the “young” meaning (20 to 27 old unmarried person can be categorized as young, IMO). Furthermore, the colorful body options available for Galaxy Y also indicated this Phone as for Young person, whether they are girls or boys. Pink color absolutely very suitable for girls, metallic colors for boys and also had two common colors, white and black (see the detail of this four 4 colors of Galaxy Y on “Specifications” tab).

Another good news is, even Galaxy Y is Samsung Android Phone, you can have this smartphone with quite “low budget”, only around 100USD without contract aka Global Phone Unlocked. Therefore it very suitable for “young’s pocket budget”. But, how about the performance? about the hardware? Are they also “low”? Don’t underestimated, even though the budget quite low for Samsung Android Smartphone, and also not as good as high-end Smartphone (such as Galaxy S II), the specs hardware of Galaxy Y, not as low as its price. See the detail I elaborate in bot tech specs of this touch bar form factor phone under “Specifications” tab.

When you encounter that your Galaxy Y frozen / freezes, or your S5360 hangs and the touchscreen stop responding, you can do the soft reset aka (restarting) by pressing and hold for 8 to 10 seconds the power button and then released. That would give you a soft reset by rebooting your Galaxy Y. In Condition rebooting the device isn’t gave you a solution, you can try to make Hard / Master Reset aka Factory Reset. Please follow my quick instruction below:

Home Screen > Menus > Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset > Reset phone > Erase Everything.

Because performing hard reset would erase all your data and applications including downloaded games, before you do this please back up your data first. Using Samsung Kies to transfer you data from Galaxy Y Phone to PC would be gave you a good back up.

But if you don’t want to do factory reset, you can alternatively to try to remove unused applications or game or data in order to get the phone storage enough space. It because sometime hangs or un-responded touchscreen occurred because the phone “works” too hard or didn’t enough RAM due to many applications runs simultaneously. Jump on page 115 to get further information about this (at PDF User Guide of Samsung Galaxy Y)

And for the picture that we embedded above, it can be obtain on page 19 of the UG of S5360. You’ll got the same picture just like we shared above. It would assist you to get to know your phone features keys and parts. the antenna, the back keys, the menu keys, the volume keys, even the power / reset / lock keys.

Learning to use the touchscreen, finding the information regarding the home screen, adding a widget, changing the wallpaper, pairing the bluetooth, connect the Wi-Fi as internet connections, download games and apps from Android market, change settings, and more also available.

    My phone automatically switches to the Silent mode on its own and then switches back to the sound (normal) mode on its own. May be I have made such settings accidently and now I do not remember the same and do not know how to fix that problem.

    So when it goes silent I do not know if somebody is calling me (because I do not keep my phone all the time in my pocket).

    Can you please help me in resolving this issue?

    I downloaded the app call cycamera and it completely froze my phone. So I soft reset it at first and it didn’t solve the problem, and all it appears are those force close messages. I also hard reset it afterwards and those messages still appear with a black background. I couldn’t do anything with the phone. I need some help here!
