The Galaxy Y is my introduction to Android and Android Development as a whole. My uncle was about to throw one away back in 2012 when I was 15, so I asked him for it. Lots of great memories with this phone. In the Philippines and India, the rom development for this device was really active to as far as 2015-2016. I still have mine somewhere. Probably still works with the battery replaced.
Yeah but I'm not sure the rom developers are from india, mostly I found custom roms on this mobile which is really amazing, I had this phone and I used to experiment with lots of rom.. This mobile is really helpful for developers.. I used to have this at the same year like 2015 to '17
Shoot, just posted a very similar comment before reading yours, had mine back in the year of its launch and replaced it with the 1st gen Galaxy, great little Android bigger, and easy to flash too 😂
Still works pare, my Samsung Galaxy Ace is still working and Y is a much later version of that. Hahaha. But we need to install custom ROMs. Pero text text nalang talaga. Hahahaha. Yan lang dahilan kaya preferred ko Samsung andaming active sa custom roms dati.
I had a Galaxy Mini S5570B (basically the Y's predecessor/bigger brother) and this brought back a lot of memories of 2011-2012. Used to play a ton of Where's My Water and Drag Racing on it. Simpler times for sure back then.
I used to have this phone and used it up until 2017, I enjoyed it! I still have it somewhere but this video brings back so many memories so thank you ❤❤
I actually had a Galaxy Y2 and it also had such limited storage as well. But the camera was actually quite decent and even the panorama feature was far better than it deserved to be. In fact I go the feeling the panorama app is better than some modern phones.
in the first 30 seconds I mentioned the Galaxy Y was released in 2015, it was actually released in 2011 my bad! What is the next throwback phone I should take a look at?? Thanks for watching guys! If you’re interested in the rom from Gingerbread to 4.1.1 this is the guide I followed: ruclips.net/video/qfkfu1QTF8w/видео.htmlsi=pAXSSNaWHO_TJ_MP
it was released in 2011 with android 2.3.6( i mean imagine putting android 2.3.6 on a new 2015 phone). another thing, this phone has a arm v6 processor which was common on budget phones in 2010(?)-2012
Damn, this was my first every touch screen phone. It felt like the most luxurious thing to have at the time. I used to play "Fragger" on it every day, and I couldn't download the levels as I progressed due to running out of storage... good times.
This phone is bringing me back my memories of old times. I had to cope with this phone when GTA 3 for mobile came out, had to do a lot of modifications to the phone. Great video !
Galaxy S2 was my introduction to Android, it felt like a spaceship coming from a Sybian at the time, if I remember correctly, it was like a Nokia C7 or something. Loved Android ever since, been using an Iphone as well. I think that these games still look solid for what they are. But the jump in technology that happened when REAL smartphones appeared was insane!
Ohhhh, I’ve been there, using this phone when it was launched. Looking at someone using it today’s is just insane! I never thought that it still usable bow tho! But hey, I adore how this guy reviewing this cute phone, always enjoyable to watch!
Interesting, this ROM looks like it's still Android Gingerbread but with appearence tweaks to make it look like Holo! The actual lockscreen can be seen at 12:00, the old network and SIM icons are still in the status bar, and the uninstall dialog at 4:17 is the one from Gingerbread So many other "themed" ROMs like that one were made for phones that just couldn't run newer Android versions lol
hey that’s true, thanks for being so thorough in watching!! Here is the guide I followed, and although I followed this I believe I had a to make a few tweaks but it was what got me through.. took me way way too long: ruclips.net/video/qfkfu1QTF8w/видео.htmlsi=pAXSSNaWHO_TJ_MP
@@johnzoid74 Ah, I remember those tutorials back when flashing ROMs was easy... Apparently people managed to port ROMs up to Android 4.4 KitKat on XDA Developers!

I do remember this phone being able to run actual Android 4, with many issues though. Most roms where just Android 2.3 roms with a theme and a different launcher.
Damn, this is my first samsung android phone. My dad bought secondhand for me and I really love it. I also like the way this video show up first when I opened youtube. Thanks for uploading.
Man! A nostalgia train did hit me so hard right now, I had this bad boy just after it's launch and I flashed so many ROMs on it it's not even legal 😂. Still in a box or a drawer somewhere in my house, and will probably boot with a fresh battery.
Wow! I remember playing Doodle Jump in 2009! At that time there’s only two of us in our high school that has touch screen phone. I have the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic and the other guy has an iPhone 3G. Whenever I play this game during lunch breaks most of my classmates were behind me watching. Good times!
😍the games in the thumbnail 😍so nostalgic 😇and the phone itself obviously..i still remember how i used to enjoy that jetpack joyride more than PUBG during those days 😅 gave u a sub ...👍
I miss that phone I used to have it in mid 2015 ❤that phones well tough and some of us that had it after a while of playing games the screen itself would start to smell of tea I’m not too sure of the reason but that’s nostalgia right there thank you sir keep going 😁
my first android smartphone that too with my first salary...i used to love playing games on this thing...Angry birds,raging thunder,fruit ninja and a robot war game which i cant recall its name but it was fun tho..
This was my first smartphone! Well, I had 3 of them (they didn’t like water that much), had android 5 running on them, for a first phone I genuinely loved it :)
Look how tiny that phone is in your hands. I remember this crazy story about Steve Jobs. That he thought that the perfect size for smartphone is only 4 inch, which I think perfectly fits the specification of that phone even though it's not an iphone.
This phone is the beast when i get it when i was like 12yrs old this phone almost could do anything until you get into rooting where you could have PVZ and other apple apps that have not released yet on android and having this makes me standout in class best memories
Man thats so pure nostalgia, i miss my first android phone Galaxy Gio, i remember it realease 2011 along side with Galaxy Mini, Galaxy Ace, Galaxy Fit.
FM radio is something many new Android phones have too. And some of them actually have pretty decent tuners too! I received radio stations over 1000 miles away with the Galaxy A40 using its earphones. I dunno about you, but I really like listening to radio without spending mobile data.
reminder: there are many modern android phones with micro sd still. i have a moto g stylus 2022 and it has a lot of great features for me at least. took me a while to find something with both a 120hz display and a headphone jack that also worked with verizon but its so nice. also a lot of motorola phones have the fm radio still. too bad most fm sucks if you arent genx+ also a lot of old and basic phones have only have fat32 support you have use guiformat to get larger sized cards working
damn, that's my first Android phone! My dad got me the phone when I was like 7 years old.. I still have a video review of it from back in 2014 laying around somewhere on my channel lol and the phone, although with an aftermarket battery because the original hasn't survived the water abuse, still works just fine!
Oh shit! I had a Galaxy Y (still do), I used it back in 2013 while my iPhone 4s was being repaired. I remember rooting it and somehow getting N64 emulation running.
dude I actually had Hill Climb on the SD card ready to go but I didn’t include in the video. Wanted to keep it under 13 minutes. Glad I could bring back some memories for ya 😎
I remember this device when I had not enough money to purchase this device I mean this was an amazing phone that time currently having S23 Ultra and yeah the dream come true for me finally.
god i miss android 4. spent my childhood playing on my verizon branded tablet (mightve been a zte) running kitkat. my first introduction to android and ive been in love ever since. really miss those old icons.
Android 4 was my first android and i still use android due to its value you can get a flagship from 2019 for 130 usd or less and they still can do most things flawlessly (samsungs seem to be very subject to screen burn in...)
Love the nostalgia run! ANDROID 4 (Jellybean/KitKat) was indeed one of the best and most stable versions. Miss when Android maximized versions before upgrading, unlike now, every year, a new version arises. Pocket Tanks, favourite childhood game! Can you do Blackberry phones too?
So many memories of when I had my first smartphone. I still have most of these games installed on my current phone on Android 14, though 14 automatically blocks apps which haven't received an update in several years and Jetpack Joyride seems to be the only one of these which still receives regular updates.
Im glad it brought back some memories 😎 had a lot of fun making the video! Yes jet pack still getting support.. the rest have sadly gotten left behind but still there for those willing!
This comment should be boosted and shown to all of the oopdaters that soyface over updates. It doesn't even let you run old apps that weren't updated in a while!
The AUX antenna works like how radios have those wires. Back in 2011 I had a phone with FM and a broken pair of heaphones. So I cut off the wire completely and the FM radio still worked
I literally cried during this video, because it's the phone I grew up with, I remember upgrading Android from 1.6 to 2.3.6 Gingerbread, thinking it's revolutionary and a huge technological feat, I used to play Pou, Jetpack Joyride, and a few 3D racing games(I don't remember what it is but it's space themed and low res) in it, even the music player has a wide surround and an "externalization" option for its EQ, and I can't stress enough how nostalgic it is, so thank you so much for bringing nostalgia to me my man, you're amazing! I'm currently watching from a Redmi Note 11
I still use my Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini about the same size of that. Since Android don't support Android 6 below, it can install limited apps. But most of the OG apps still playable. I mainly use it as a gameboy now. Filled it with GBA Roms and installed an Emulator
I had this only use as my alarm for many year ever since I get a better phone, and it's battery finally dead last year. it was hella durable for lasting that many years.
This was my first Android phone ever. After I managed to get it stuck in a bootloop I figured out how to recover it by flashing a stock rom with Odin. After that I discovered custom roms, and I never had a rom installed for more than a week before being replaced by another. Now I'm using a Pixel 7 after using iPhones for a few years, And I have to say that Android has come a long way since back then. Installing a custom rom isn´t that interesting anymore (at least for me), as most features are already in the stock rom.
You can move installed apps to the SD card to save space. It's how I have 8 classic games on my 2.3.5 android phone and I still have roughly 73mb left for more
Omg all of those games are the most nostalgic and top games of their times😂 blast from the past, and i remember got jealous of my friends that have android before me when it was first became a thing, im still using Java phones lol so i usually borrowed my friends phone to play android games 😂😂
I had a Galaxy Ace at the time, it was a bigger Galaxy Y basically. Awesome phone, it was my very first android device, used to spend hour at Facebook talking to people, playing games, taking photos, all on that crap internal storage. Had a 512 MB SD card and that wass hell of a storage hahahah
holy, my first touch screen phone! I still have it but the battery are probably dead since I haven't used it since... 2015. geez I remember playing Hill Climb Racing using this phone after doing college papers.

I had a Galaxy Ace at the time, it was a bigger Galaxy Y basically. Awesome phone, it was my very first android device, used to spend hour at Facebook talking to people, playing games, taking photos, all on that crap internal storage. Had a 512 MB SD card and that wass hell of a storage hahahah
holy, my first touch screen phone! I still have it but the battery are probably dead since I haven't used it since... 2015. geez I remember playing Hill Climb Racing using this phone after doing college papers.
I still remember 320x240 phones from Walmart back in the day. Couldn't run their own software without crashing. 64MB of RAM!
