New firmware I9000XWJG3 - Galaxy S I9000 Android Development

Here's a new Russian release thanks to 4pda.ru
This fixes the Swype/SMS problem.
My understanding is that this is a final release candidate, and that it has the mini-bug (for non-Russians ) that the Russian T9 is missing. But if anyone is in the mood for experimenting...
It is recommended you install it whole.
(As you can see, the modem and csc files are identical to the JG1 release)

*THIS IS A EUROPEAN VERSION, NO CHINESE SUPPORT*

nice will give it a try l8tr today
G1 was already better than stock or even the cooked one
hope this one is even better

Any changes except
"This fixes the Swype/SMS problem."?
Becouse I didn't have this problem anyway.

err good... feedback?

Also installed. No Laggy/STall Bugs anymore. at the moment. Testing more with many apps open.

No lag WITHOUT the modaco "fix" ?
This would be awesome =D

@Aweb it's to early to say hurraa.....at the moment all is smooth but I'm testing the next hours. At the moment no problems. But it's a fresh wipe new install. I run now a game in the background and make some calls. there i have allways laggy dial menu during the call.
//Edit and no modaco NAND copy fix-only default ODIN install with wipe after it.
//Edit2: It's defintily better and smoother.But when i stress the phone with 2 games in the background and make internet browsing.it makes a little bit lags. But on the desire (without froyo) it makes much more lags if i do the same.
//Edit3 After stressing with more applications-the lag comes again-not so much like other firmware, but it makes a little bit pause when oping more apps.But at the moment this is the best firmware for the SGS.

Did you install all 3 files?

Can you comment on the GPS quality. Did you have GPS issues before, and are they any better now? Needs GPS Test to see whats going on, running Google Nav doesn't tell you anything useful.

Thanks for the review, dahool2008
I hope they'll finally get this lag problem fixed in future firmware revisions, sounds annoying and it's one of the reasons I haven't bought one yet.

@TravUK I has the gps issue before when i ran with copilot or navigon. the problem is definitly gone.... tested 15minutes by car.
But The Lags are all again on the phone. The Problem was only gone after flashing. I think more&more that this is really a hardware problem with the chip.
//Edit
@Tyxerakias I installed only the code&modem file

What do you think is a hardware problem? Is this the GPS again?

no i think the bottleneck is the flash ram where /data/data is stored

Lag caused by a hardware problem? Is that even possible when it has some of the best hardware around? Do we know the specs of the flash memory?

No, he means the lag reported, which [email protected] has fixed by moving data from /data to /dbdata . It seems like it's a slower memory chip causing the slowness.

[prj][Android 1.6 Donut][AOSP][Theme Noche Oscura][+CAB Install][Ext2 parttion test]

Do Not Bother xdandroid devs, with fillrate or hw3d being faster on donut than on eclair, plz they are not mages, stuff dont just magically work out of no were
Here's what iv been working on, for about a week, its Donut 1.6 AOSP, this rom includes only 2 extra apps aside from the google ones, Since this is based on AOSP i tried to leave it as clean as possible, except of course for the theme i made for it.
This ROM Should pretty much as Stable as Android can get on our Devices, it is also very fast since its based on Donut(no fillrate). If you find any bugs report them on this thread, i will try as best i can to fix it. And yes i know the Date in the status bar is still Default color(black) i will fix it as soon as i find the exact place to change it.

well for starters the overall speed of donut is just awesome, there other thing is that there is no fillrate on donut so 3dapps,games and 2d games also don't have that slowness and stutter you get in eclair/froyo(they both lack fillrate or should i say a fixed fillrate?) phh would know how to explain fillrate better than me, but anyways basically it stops the screen from filling extra pixels, Do too our screen being vga. This slows down 3dapps considerably, if you want to see this just run lets say Raging Thuder 2 you will notice how fast it is in donut, and how it stutters and seems like a jpg slideshow on elcair/froyo

Ah, makes sense. I didn't know that stuff about the fillrate either, good info. If only phh could dump all his knowledge into a wiki on a daily basis...
On first impression - very fast, wow! Also, 3g internet works out of the box. Can't seem to get GPS workin tho. Seems like it may be disabled completely, if I only have the GPS option enabled under Security & Location, Google Maps tells me that I need to enable a My Location source in system settings. Tried also allowing the option to let Google use my location to help their services, didn't make a difference. I never see the GPS icon in the notification bar either.
Still amazed at how fast this build is. Very nice! We'll see how battery life is next. It does seem to be going into deep sleep correctly (I get the 'breathe' LEDs...)

yea its seems that gps is not working, im gona have to talk to phh about this, im almost shure that gps is only enabled for eclair/froyo not for donut im not shure, i guess google maps works because of triangulation
edit: iv talked to stinebd and phh, they say libhardware-legacy need to be backported for donut in order for gps to work, so that i cannot fix sorry
Cool, thanks. I'll try running this for the remainder of the day to see how battery stacks up. There are a few things I've been missing from newer builds, but for the most part this build is awesome!

Well the phone is still chuggin. Only issues I've ran into so far are the GPS problems I stated earlier, and ADW keeps getting a force close error every hour or two.
I like LauncherPro better, but that's just personal preference. ADW seems alright, but the random crashes are a little obnoxious. Not that LauncherPro is perfect either

I actually prefer stock over anything else. Any program cooked in seems to be more of a hassle, and limits choice the user has.
On another front, I have almost 4hr uptime with 26% battery reported left. That's... probably about what I've gotten with the other ones. With a lot of standby, I could probably stretch it to 7-9 hrs. Not bad, but with heavy usage it depletes pretty quickly... So no marked improvement over other builds, but certainly not any worse either

Gingerbread XDAndroid

http://southcape.org/2011/02/11/xdandroid-gingerbread-public-test-build/
Does anyone know if this works on HTC Touch HD and if so, how?
thanks
Already tried Gingerbread. It looks nice and works quite smooth but it's not yet ready for daily use. Other than issues posted on stinebd's blog I've also couldn't get default keyboard to work, had problems with wifi (but could be user error) and neocore wouldn't run properly.
Remember to backup your SD card before using this because it needs to be tested on clean install.
BTW. I really like the UI overhaul Google did in 2.3 =)
Hi, all!
It worx great! it is laggy but i can feel the speed!
WiFi works for me, note that in 2.2(FroYo) i can turn on the wifi only one time per boot, in that release(2.3.1) its just working every time!! (but maybe its from the modules, im using the latest)

Nope, i didn't. It is not yet optimized, but its quite fast, even not optimized
(in earlier development state). HW3D does not work! I think by Default
there is not a daily use SD-Android (it keeps the SD powered on all the time the android is 'online' even when in idle),
so it consume too much power for daily use. That's my point.

Try with another rootfs(for the wakeup problem), backup and delete data.img, if
you can't see changes
and always use the latest kernel and rootfs.
I have no any problems, excepting the known issues, and bug-s.

Hi, I'll give you a simple HOWTO :
1. Download this.
2. Extract the contents of the archive to the root of your FRESH FAT32
formatted microSD, excepting the system.ext2
(if it's SDHC(larger than 2-4GB), microSD shouldn't be class 6 and higher)
3. Download this.
4. Extract the system.ext2 to the root of the microSD
5. Run HaRET.exe and have fun!!
Edit: if the andro does not boot successfully, try to use the latest modules and rootfs
if you don't know how to do it, just--\/
If you have any specific problems, PM me!

It has no Live Wallpaper support because it's still alpha release.
And this feature has lower priority than other stuff that have to be fixed.

It won't have live wallpaper anytime soon. They are not worth fixing because they drain battery crazy fast and are darn slow on our devices. I think they were disabled on purpose in FroYo.

Hi, dedalum!
On Blackstone BT does not work, wifi and data works, camera.... I'll test it! (I think it wont work) --Tested, but the news are bad!
The old kernels does not work with Gingerbread, so camera does not work, yet!
I tried two different kernels, for the camera testing and for the anti-audio stuttering MOD, in the both cases it cant reach the homescreen.
As nasko_spasko mentioned, camera seems out of reach for the moment...
I also asked in VirusCrazy's camera testing thread, and he also gives Gingerbread "low chance", something for the future...
But I should add that there is (probably more than one) kernel out here that fixes audio stuttering, I'm using Gingerbread with a modified 1253 kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11169582&postcount=76
Audio and Wifi great, battery life ~ 20-30 hours (using periodic data for ClockSynch and some weather sync, but nothing else)
Cheers,
Robbert

The audio is the most important issue for me.
I have GBX0A running with 1255 kernel. It's the only one that doesn't give me audio-stuttering since Gingerbread won't boot with the 1498 kernel.
The latest kernels 1260/1262 both work but give audio-stutter.
Only thing i'd like is a new rootfs with keymapping for Blackstone like in the rootfs from 2011-01-31.

Keyboard is a known issue.
Recommendation: get Thumb keyboard from Market. It's free and has different layouts and looks.
Fix for alignment squares: use old ts-calibration file from another build, or use the one attached below. Just remove the extension and put it in the same folder as haret and startup.

Use build in Japan IME. It has Latin characters on the numeric keyboard (like in non touchscreen phones). Should be enough to log into market and download gingerbread keyboard.

Or just put the apk inside the AndroidApps folder (it's inside the andboot one). It will auto-install at boot.
I like the app "Gingerbread keyboard" though. I use it in froyo too.

Multitasking fail

Hi, HTC Sense 4.0 multitask is very bad, i can't use 3 apps in the background at the same time, first i thing it's ICS problem but when i compare it with Galaxy S 3 i find that HTC really need to fix there multitask issue.
Checkout this video i create it:
here's the video link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Sw0ALWKCZ8 i don't know how to embed the video here ><"
Any one here can fix it ?
Is already a well known issue. Somehow people begin accepting it as a feature rather than issue.

Are there any known ways to tweak this behaviour or work around it? I'm finding it very annoying, as I'm using something like PVStar+ to play YouTube in the background (for audio), and suddenly it stops working because the One X has decided to kill it mid song or whatever.
When it starts killing active audio stream, I begin to have problems :-(

The only negatives was smaller benchmark scores, nothing else seemed slow with the multitasking enhacements.
HTC really know how to limit us, s-on crap, this multitasking lack and camera locked to 2MB pics. Fixed 2/3, multitasking and photos just under 8MB for colourful , detailed scenes. And we can install custom roms with a little inconvienence. Almlst 3/3 HTC your practices suck.

Upgrade to Firmware 2.09.720.1

I upgraded to firmware 2.09.720.1 and I have noticed that there have been major improvements in performance.
The phone does not lag anymore.
Also I noticed that the Media Link HD has been added to connectivity.
I wanted to know if any other improvements have been made by this upgrade, since I could not find any log stating the changes...

True, that.
Also, the 3 finger gesture has been added and enabled by default which directly allows you to connect to Media Link HD. Just swipe from 3 fingers to get started

I AM IN india!
I am in India too and I got the update. I have unlocked the bootloader and I was surprised that I got the OTA working without requiring locking it. Maybe it is a requirement for running RUU only. All I had to do was flash back the stock recovery for the OTA flashing to work.
Edit:
Update gave me a new baseband and that renders the RUU I have useless. Started getting reboots when answering phone calls. Went back my trusted modaco vanilla and a kernel I have built updated to kernel verrsion 3.0.38
How?? Cz I'm looking in the updates its telling me my phone is up to date
Sent from my HTC One V using xda premium

India does not have carrier locked phones, hence phones are rather expensive as there are no deals!

NO. Instead, switching between tabs is smoother and faster after the update.. I don't have the Calendar/Agenda issue..
The Network Operator name is also fixed.
On the lock screen and in the notification bar it used to show "airtel".
Now it shows "AirTel"
Posted just because this thread asks about the new in the update..

It is crashing for me as soon as I enter the default Calendar app of HTC except that no issues. Also I tried searching for it and found that many users are facing this issue. Sad on part of HTC, they should work on getting this fixed
Help
I am thinking of buying a htc one V,my requirements are moderately heavy games, apps and not too much multitasking..
since both the One V and Ace 2 have similar price, what phone would you recommend?
Thanks n advance

For heavy gaming the Ace 2 would be probably better (2 core, but 800mhz vs 'ghz simple core, and MALI400 vs Adreno205, and more RAM). The question is that the look of the phone will be enough for you
