Then how do you install GB. I don't think installing without bootloaders is good too!!! I was thinking if I flash to GB and to get back to froyo if I use a three file ROM like JPC.... I will be fine, no?:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droilfade:
Have you tried reverting to stock froyo???
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Videonut:
I reverted to stock Froyo then used odin and only installed the PDA file.

CF-Root and JVK screenoff/batt.

Looks like I have both wcdma 850 and wcdma 1900 now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJustin:
So you are using jvk with the jl2 modem? Any incompatibility issues you've noticed so far? Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Videonut:
That's correct. So far no problems. The only strange thing was after the flash when rebooting it stopped at the recovery screen showing an error finding CSC information, can't remember exactly. I just selected reboot and all was good. I now have a KOR product code. If I was to flash again I think i'd flash the CSC file too.

I'd like to know if anyone has flashed all 3 files and has both wcdma 850/1900 working.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dawgplg:
I flashed JVK the other day and so far so good. I first tried to install JVK without bootloaders but the phone would not boot after, just hung at the first Samsung screen. I flashed the bootloaders version (hesitantly since I am now on my 3rd phone), and it worked fine. Obviously I lost my 850mhz band, but got it back after flashing the JL2 modem. Knock on wood, but things are working great. I have since flashed a couple different kernel's. Used Clockwork Mod to get the CRT TV Off hack working.

I occassionaly run into a force close, but I found the same on the different versions of Froyo I have been running.

In case you are wondering. I flashed using Odin, no additional checkboxes were checked (no pit, no partition, no bootloader). After flashing I grabbed the kernel of choice and flashed it with same Odin settings. I did get error's moving from Speedmod to Ultimate Kernel. I ended up having to reflash the Ginger ROM to fix, then proceeded to install the Ultimate Kernel.

With respect to the bootloader issue for Bell devices. I do have concerns about flashing the new bootloaders, but am hoping that the steps taken to correct the Froyo JK4 debacle have been included in the new bootloader. Otherwise I may be in for another headache in a few weeks. I havent personally tried it, but going back to JL2 shouldnt be a problem. Might just have to check off the bootloader option in Odin to get back on the Bell JL2 bootloader, but not too sure.

Good luck.

basicaly, you flash those modem:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droilfade:
By "tick off" you mean check it or no? Lol...

If you mean check it... I don't think its a good option. Rather why not just flash a three file ROM to get back!!

I'm running cm7 now and haven't tried going back to stock. I will give it a shot soon. The ROM is awesome but its the batt that bothers me!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dawgplg:
Not sure if you were referring to my post but I did not tick off or check off any additional boxes when using odin. only the default boxes had a check. Repartition and Bootloaders were un-checked and I did not have to use a pit file.

In addition my modem gets 850mhz just by flashing back the JL2 modem file through Odin.

Btw, Darky RC3 ROM installed as expected. and by default ran the voodoo lagfix.

Phone is smoking fast....
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t1mman:
Well, flashing the JL2 will make it work, yes, but you might miss out on optimisation from the last modem... That's why you should try to get it working.

Am still controlling my self from flashing GB. Over the past few days I've heard both stories, brick and no brick! So for now, its stay put I guess.....but the ROMs Look so goooooooood!

Where did you see someone bricking their phone?

So far the GB rom is fantastic. It just took a couple steps to get it right for Bell network.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droilfade:
Heard it on a chat room...my only concern as I have always been saying is saying is getting back to Froyo! But with your words of confidence, my friend I might soon try it!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ash88:
It's been stable for me for a couple/few days so far. GB is nice – finally got rid of the wifi battery drain issue I had.

Figure if it's going to fail (sd card issue) I would rather it happen while warranty is still there.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Videonut:
And with that being said just remember that many ppl think most bricked i9000m's were caused by the bootloaders before JL2. So flashing a different rom that has a different bootloader could be asking for problems.

I decided to take the risk but it's your call...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droilfade:
So it means that the bootloader issues have been solved with JL2 which means that it should be ok when you flash back too! So I think tonight's gonna be a good night, a good night!!!!:D

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droilfade:
Operation GB: Accomplished!

OK I booted to JV1 today and everything was good. Wanted to get back to Froyo since there is no support for voodoo sound (which I cant live without). I always flash a three file JPC ROM and then flash JL2. After the JPC the phone is always enters bootloop and then only with the JL2 flash does the phone boot. But today, the JPC booted too!!! LOl...dont know why or how but I am certainly not complaining that it did!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doktorV:
hey, newbie here but interested in GB for my i9000m - do you know if any are stable and able to be flashed to bell i9000m? is it available with a simple kernel flash to a stock rom (still on froyo 2.2) or do i need to go to a custom rom?

running kc1 with speedmod kernel.

thanks!

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnb:
Recently I have been having a little trouble with inputting text on my lovely little G2. I can't remember a specific moment when it started, a new app that I may have downloaded, or even an app update that would have affected this. (Perhaps the new cover on it has ruined everything... curses!) j/k

Here's the hitch: I can't type anything on my phone. I can't enter text with the stock Android keyboard or with Swype. I can't type in text to email, text messaging, gtalk, or a browser search. Turning the phone off and on results in temporary superior performance. But alas, it just doesn't stick.

Any suggestions?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkb6581:
How difficult do you suppose it will be to port over the rom from the Evo 3D to the Evo 4G, or should I just pony up the dough and screw the upgrade?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:
If you're going to be eligible for an upgrade at the time of release, just change your plan to qualify for premiere gold status until july, then switch back.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
There is much, much, much more to the Evo3D than the ROM. Porting won't give you a dual core processor, or more RAM, or more storage, or a better GPU, or any of the other hardware improvements.

I would guess that the ROM will be ported over to the Evo 4G and will make our devices nicer. But that wouldn't mean you shouldn't pony up the dough for the Evo 3D even if the ROM is ported. It'll run circles around the Evo easily, so you'll need to decide what that's worth.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkb6581:
To be honest, I know all that, but I am one of the rare ones, at least from what I have seen, that really prefers Sense UI. I am currently running CM7, but only because it is the only way to run 2.3. Believe me, I am very familiar with how hardware is different. My issue is that I work for Sprint as a tech in the store and I doubt that I will be able to just get an upgrade because of availability. At least that's what happened with the 4G, and I had to buy it outright. So while I do have the upgrade available, my question was just more of a general one for all, but maybe I can save some cash for awhile until I am allowed to use my upgrade on the 3D.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
Gotcha. You're not rare at all -- I like Sense, and a lot of other people do too. I think the odds are nearly 100% that we'll see a ROM with Sense and GB as such devices come onto the market, but the wildcard is whether they'll be able to get 4G working. I think the Evo 3D ROM is probably the best chance of that, and probably odds are pretty good as long as it's not a totally different chipset or something.

If all you care about is GB + some form of Sense, there are rumors we might see one come out officially this quarter. I'd call it about 50/50%. I take it that they haven't told you techs anything about that, or you wouldn't be asking here. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkb6581:
Yeah, they haven't said anything. They wouldn't even tell us exactly when to expect the 2.2 update for the Epic. Its frustrating, but understandable. You wouldn't want to say its coming, then have something wrong with it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forjunkish97:
My theory is that they will not push an update for the EVO 4G to entice people to upgrade to the EVO 3D... so we will only get android 2.3 & sense 2.0 on our current EVO's by way of ported ROM.... it's the mightly "dolla" that rules that decision!

anyone catch the latest launcher pro update? The 3D app drawer is very SMOOTH, no lag or gitters in it at all. I love the way the 3D app drawer looked but never used it on my EVO because of the gittery/lag it would have as i like my phone to be quick and snappy.

Wow, we do like to jump to conclusions. One blogger makes a claim, and we all assume the worst. And Samsung did respond almost immediately. According to Engadget:

Update: Kudos to Samsung for hitting this head-on. An hour after we inquired for comment, a company spokesperson tossed over this official quote: "Samsung takes Mr. Hassan's claims very seriously. After learning of the original post this morning on NetworkWorld.com, we launched an internal investigation into this issue. We will provide further information as soon as it is available."

[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
You really have no idea how Carrier IQ works, or who they work for. Manufactures don't hire Carrier IQ, the carriers do. And the Moment wasn't by far the first device with Carrier IQ built in. In fact Carrier IQ has been installed in select sprint devices for the past 4 years. Verizon and AT&T signed contracts with them 2 years ago. They can remotely activate their application to collect data which is immediately sent to the carriers. Carrier IQ isn't allowed to examine the data because in their contracts they are removed from the right to own it. The carriers own the data and use it to improve the performance of their devices.

One of the studies done with the Carrier IQ data is that 40% of devices with Facebook pre-installed on it are used. Without Facebook, it drops to a 2% rating.

[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
Sorry, what? Where are you getting this? I know exactly who Carrier IQ works for, how it works, and that it's been around for a long time. All I have stated in my posts on it is that it's been proven to be on the selection of devices I listed - not that those are the only devices that have the agent installed. I also realize Carrier IQ the company cannot analyze the data. I don't care that they can't. They have no need to insert hooks into applications that collect personal, identifiable data, when the software platform they're using is explicitly designed to be able to drill down to - and I quote - "individual devices".

I also realize - because it is obvious - that Samsung put the Carrier IQ agent in at the behest of Sprint. As evidenced, however, by ease of removal on other devices, they went above and beyond what was needed to insert CIQ's functions. They deliberately buried the software. They never added any form of notification that it is on there, any disclosure of what it does, or gave the user any sort of choice in whether they want to be a participant in these "studies". All they did was hide invasive software that I and many others consider spyware, software that, as you put it:

You are not an expert - least of all in the level of knowledge of your fellow users. The ad hom is not appreciated. If I were you, I'd knock it off before losing all credibility.

[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
I actually spoke to the VP of Marketing for Carrier IQ, and asked him all about their business and what they do. How in the world do you consider yourself credible? Just because you removed it and researched it online doesn't mean anything.

I cannot lose credibility. You used "ad hom" incorrectly. I did not attack your character, I attacked the false accusation of keylogging is equal to Carrier IQ. I read your little story, then researched on my own. Then heard Carrier IQ's side of the story from. Samsung really had nothing to do with Carrier IQ at all. So before you call me not credible, explain where you even got your source of information from.

Another example of what they do is detecting when your phone drops below -90 db in signal, to read your location to send back to the carrier. That is then used to help the carrier see where coverage is at and where towers need to be constructed.

Anyways, you and ACS are entitled to your own opinion about CIQ. They showed me graphs and reports of the effect of Carrier IQ with it in and with it out, and no performance was affected, along with only a 2% drain on the battery when turn on. I simply asked them the questions you wanted to ask them and I got straight answers. I felt it fair that what they are doing is fully acceptable because it is in turn helping us, not hurting.

[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
You're entitled to your opinion as well. We disagree, and I don't plan to make a scene over it. I, however, did not use 'ad hom' incorrectly - you said quite clearly 'you have no idea who Carrier IQ works or who they work for'. You have no idea what I know or how I know it. If you were trying merely to be informative and not attack me, you would have stated the facts outright without the combative prefix.

Also note that I never said you weren't credible, but that you are not an expert. I did say that you risk losing credibility by going straight to criticizing me rather than presenting your beliefs on their own.
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Ah, I see, and that was my bad. I used bad wording in the beginning on my argument then. However, I am planning on writing a nice long article on the story of Carrier IQ. With everything included. Nothing left out, all positions will be included.

I know you think I have a side, but I actually don't. I'm completely impartial on this. I just like having both sides out there, and making sure everyones facts are straight no matter what.

No hard feelings? Like I said, I'm sorry, I do see where you meant "ad hom" now though.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
Fair enough, no harm done.

I would still like to hear from an executive-level representative of Sprint, or at least someone authorized to give a position for the company, on the matter. Neither 'side' will be much more than examination of capabilities as seen during inspection of code or statements from the company producing the software in question until that happens.

Such a statement - or better (and this will never happen) an open dialogue on the subject would do much good in clearing up privacy and consent issues. (For example: is customer location data anonymized? If not, why not? Do you need to know it was specifically me in the low signal area?)
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
I would be fine if all they were doing was collecting data for coverage and tower building. But from the info I have seen them logging keystrokes has nothing to do with coverage data. Instead they are trying to get marketing data just like Google. Look at how much money Google has made from our data.

That's why Google is trying to be involved everywhere. More data they can sell.
[Epic 4G General] fookxixi:
I think it's clear to me. Engadget didn't verify the truth. Samsung is innocent this time.

http://www.samsungtomorrow.com/1071

The statements that Samsung installs keylogger on R525 and R540 laptop computers are false.

Our findings indicate that the person mentioned in the article used a security program called VIPRE that mistook a folder created by Microsoft’s Live Application for a key logging software, during a virus scan.

The confusion arose because VIPRE mistook Microsoft's Live Application multi-language support folder, "SL" folder, as StarLogger.

(Depending on the language, under C:\windows folders "SL" for Slovene, "KO" for Korean, "EN" for English are created.)

Samsung will continue to respect customer needs by providing the highest quality products and services.
