I hope samsung will also make a 4.0 for the SGS why not they done the nexus s they are so close.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] adityak28:
I really doubt Samsung will make ICS for SGS. All their efforts would probably be concentrated towards SGSII and Note
[Galaxy S I9000 General] random_username_:
they didnt make the nexus s update, google did
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Spronx_:
The GS roms available are pretty good so far, flashed one on my wifes and she loves it!

Someone told me that NFC drivers can be ported from (ICS) Nexus S to Galaxy S, and NFC works. I call bull****. Is that true ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hippiegunner:
No it isnt because sgs doesnt have a nfc chip build in
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alexx910:
At the moment this doesnt mean so much as you think. We need the source code for nexus s to get a nice build of ICS. Otherwise the rom would suck, if you know what I mean :)

anyway, does anybody know if nexus s can now record videos with 720p?? :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] dc9836:

Kernel version-2.6.32.9

PLS HELP PPL...THANKS IN ADVANCE..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] pabreu:
well, since ur adamant abt ur warranty, kies must be doin that on purpose. forcing you to flash a fw by odin. :p

many guys have flashed, rooted, converted our "maruti" into "mercedes" but still have claimed warranty from samsung service centers whenever any problem makes them visit the service. so no worries man.

go on and be brave and explore the awesomeness of the phone!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] varunthapliyal999:
If u still don't want to flash your phone just go to the service centre n ask them to update it
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] anigr88:
I would like to ask admin to ban u from this community don't u know where to post which topic...

If u don't wanna flash ur rom or root why ru in xda ...!?!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] dc9836:
well in that case...please could you give me a steb by step guide to install the latest firmware in my galaxy??

please...i am a complete noob in this case..aand really get lost with many technical words...

a step by step guide...what software shud i get...what shud i download..etc etc...also what are the things that i will loose after this upgrade?? messages...contacts...???

pls pls pls...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Taraen:
When flashing with odin you will loose everything. But you can do something against this:

1. Download Odin3

Searched with Google:

http://www.mediafire.com/?mp3dj37882a4a0z

Is the same Version I am using.

2. Root your Phone with current FW:

GT-I9003_PDA-DDKB2.tar should be the right one

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1151704

Follow the instructions

3. Install Titanium Backup on your Phone

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup

Make sure it has root permissions.

For me the App is in German, so my free translations may not be what you will read.

3.1 Press Menu and choose "settings" (3rd row, 1nd column)

3.2 Select "Backup Folder" and choose a folder on your external sd

3.3 go back to start screen

3.4 Press Menu and choose Batch-Process (1st row, 2nd column)

3.5 Under Backup choose the 3rd option "all user apps + systemdata" (Press on "Go!")

3.6 Wait for backup to finish

3. Download new Firmware

Now you can upgrade your FW, but I don't now whats the last full FW (pit+bootloader+pda+modem+csc) for india and which ones are only updates (only pda)

If you want I can tell it for european FWs

4. Flash new Firmware

See above. If you want I can tell it for european FWs

5. Root your new FW

Hence you are now on Gingerbread you can root with universal CF-Root.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1351056

CFROOT_GT-I9003_PDA-2011-12-17.tar is currently the latest version

6. Restore your Backup

6.1 Install Titanium Backup from Market

6.2 In the app press menu button and choose Batch-Process (1st row, 2nd column)

6.3 Under restore choose the last option "All Apps and Data"

After spending days trying to get it to work I have found the solution.

Check other post for were to find Chevron wp7 and cert. and instructions.

The problem is the date of certificate. Expires Nov 25th 2011.

So set your computer back to before above date. Set your PDA time back as well.

Fire up Zune click Chevron Unlock and your done.

I hope this can save a lot of people wasting there time and getting frustrated so they can move on to the good stuff

Hey, i have a Bluetooth problem. When i turn Bluetooth on after 30sec it turns off.

Can someone help me?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schulz1199:
First *push*
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonkruys:
It sounds like you have a problem with your phone. Bluetooth stays on permanently, and there is no configuration option apart from on or off. Dies it say it is off?

Unless you mean discoverable? I have got a feliing it only remains discoverable whilst you are in the settings screen?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vdjan:
I have the same issue since a few weeks although not that fast.

Bluetooth switches off automatically on my HD7 after a few minutes.

When connecting it to my carkit, it can make a first call without problems, but when finished the call it will switch off bluetooth after a few minutes.

I even now reverted back to 7.0.7389.0 by using one of Ansar's ROMs, but I have again the same issue.:mad

Any one else has similar issues on the HD7? Anyone knows how to fix it?

Could it be something physically broken?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vdjan:
Meanwhile I installed all updates again with Zune, but still the issue exists.

I also have an issue with the WiFi when the issue with BT occurs.

If I try to switch on/off WiFi, the phone hangs for a while, after that he doesn't go to sleep mode no more and it's impossible to switch it off with the Power button.

Only solution at the moment is to take out the battery.

Had it several times now already.

I mailed HTC, and they told me to send in the phone, but I'll need to miss it for 2-3 weeks then :(

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slayer_b:
looks like data output of my captivate's sensors is reverted with accelerometer, that means I starting any compass app and puts phone to horizontal surface and rotates it clockwise and counterclockwise, normally compas should rotates but it doesn't.

When I put it at an angle to the surface, compass starts rotating.:D Behaves itselfs as the accelerometer sensor:D

The strange thing is that compass working like a charm on KK4 modem, but I can't use KK4 modem on CM\MIUI build because of abnormal sensitivity (it is too sensitive) of mic during call, the caller can't hear me clearly.

I trying to google for this problem but didn't find anything usefull, also I tries to calibrate it, of course it didn't help:D

Any ideas how to fix the problem, its really annoying me during GPS navigation-the map alvays rotating?

P.S. now I'm using MIUI-1.12.9.10 I9000XXJVT baseband and Glitch v13 kernel
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultima528:
I'm actually seeing the same thing; my compass seemingly responds primarily to accelerometer or gyroscope detected motion (or the magnetometer is just busted). As far as I know, this only started happening after I updated to KK4 and installed CM7 over it (the compass was fine under CM7 installed over KB2). I've tested other modems, including KK4, to no avail. Flat surface calibration (face up and face down) and the compass calibration (using the figure 8 rotation) indeed do not help.

Has anyone else experienced this issue and/or have any suggestions? Could this at all be related to GB bootloaders? I doubt the latter to be the case, but I'm all out of ideas here, because outside of things within the OS, that's the only thing I can think of that's changed.

ROM: CyanogenMod v7.2.0 RC0 KANG

Kernel: Glitch v13.1

Modem: JK4
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultima528:
So I cleared /data/system/yas529.cfg and rebooted the phone, and the system created a new file one on startup. This seems to have... changed... something. That is, the phone seems to be reading the magnetometer now, but it's behaving crazily. Firstly, the compass reads west when the phone is pointed north. Secondly, when I move the phone counterclockwise, the compass actually also spins counterclockwise, so when I reorient the phone from north to west, the compass actually points from west to north.

Compass recalibration via figure 8 motion and pitch/roll recalibration (both with phone face up and face down) don't help. Anyone familiar with /data/system/yas529.cfg, and what a "good" copy looks like? Mine currently has the following values:

13,19,16,174,26,-158,3,255,255,255,2147483647,2147483647,2147483647,0,

The previous one that seemed to respond primarily to accelerometer/gyroscope had the following values:

14,19,16,-46,52,-170,3,255,255,255,2147483647,2147483647,2147483647,0,
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultima528:
Well. I have no idea why this worked, but I decided to revert to stock KK4, then reinstalled CM7, starting with 7.1.0, then worked my way up to 7.2.0-RC0.

Testing the GPS again, the compass is working fine now. Looking at /data/system/yas529.cfg, I see the following:

14,19,16,39,-49,159,3,255,255,255,2147483647,2147483647,2147483647,0,

While in KK4, I also rooted and checked this file, and saw the following:

13,19,16,36,185,150,3,255,255,255,2147483647,2147483647,2147483647,0,

In either case, the compass worked fine. Perhaps worth noting is the fact that the 6th item in the list is actually positive, which may or may not be related to my previous observation that the compass rotation made no sense (not sure, really). I tried negating that number to see if I could reproduce the issue, but it didn't work (and in fact, calibrating the compass only flipped the number to positive, even though calibration always used to set it negative). Not sure what to say.

Anyway, all looks well now. For anyone else who runs across this issue, the only thing I can suggest is for you to just try reinstalling CM7 (and possibly reverting all the way back to stock if reinstalling alone doesn't help).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] screwyluie:
I find different apps have different results. There are compass apps that work. Keep looking
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultima528:
I didn't test only a single compass app; I tested several apps (Maps, GPS Essentials, GPS Status, to name a few), tested several different modems (JL3, JK4, KK4, to name a few), and calibrating various sensors (accelerometer/gyroscope, magnetometer, GPS). Nothing helped.

After the reinstall, the exact same apps with the exact same modems are working. The fact is that something was screwed up with the install that caused this.

- When the compass wasn't working, my install process was: KK4, Corn Kernel (without rooting), then straight to CM 7.2.0-RC0.

- Before then (when the compass was working previously), my install process was: KB2, root, CM 7.1.0, and then nightlies upward to 7.2.0.

- This time around (with the compass working), my install process was: KK4, Corn Kernel (with root), then CM 7.1.0, then CM 7.2.0-RC0.

I'm not sure I'm up for reinstalling repeatedly just to eliminate possibilities, but I suspect it may have been an issue with the install/upgrade process itself. Or just a random glitch. Either way, the moral of the story is that if nothing else helps, try reinstalling (possibly from stock).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvanVanVan:
I haven't seen my LED light work once yet. I've had the phone since Thursday (VZW LTE) and don't even know what the LED looks like. I'm guessing its right next to the ear piece? As I said I'm still stock unrooted, but I do use Dialer One and Handcent. I'm guessing Handcent has a bug with ICS and/or the Galaxy Nexus? I go into notification settings, the LED option is checked, but when I select "Test Notification" Handcent FC/stops responding. Also when I get a new email (gmail), I don't get any kind of LED notification...Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] compywiz:
It's at the bottom of the front of the phone. About 1/4" from the bottom of the phone. I've only seen it light up on new text messages though. I hear Light Flow works to customize the LED.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aflac01:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OFDorchester:
When I first got mine, I thought it was broken too. I seems the default settings don't use the notification nearly as much as some other phones. I recommend getting light flow and setting up the notification light that way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvanVanVan:
Yeah I think it was a combination of not realizing exactly where to look and it not being used as often as I would have thought. After installing Lightflow I see it now, thanks. It's actually really sick looking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ZPrimed:
Light flow is awesome, I wish I had found this app a long time ago. I assume that you're supposed to disable notification inside the individual apps and just do it all through light flow?

Also, it doesn't seem to allow me to change colors? (I change the color setting but the light is always white-ish).

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Doesnt it ask you if you want to enable personalized voice recognition when you use it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cephraim:
I think I may have seen something when I first ran it, but I canceled it, since I didn't have time. Now I can't find anything related in any of the settings. There are so many voice apps on this phone, I can't even figure out which one I should be looking at!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jmejiaa:
Well which one are you using? I just use google voice and never even bothered with the installed vlingo.

Try clearing data for google voice and see if it prompts you again. Also try speaking farther/closer, the mic can be different than you're used to.

Overall voice recognition has been OK for me but I hardly use it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Go to settings/voice input and output and enable personalized recognition

I must say that my voice recognition with unnamed 2.0.1 is 95% accurate. Will keep an I out....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cephraim:
Thanks. I was able to enable personalization, but it's definitely not as accurate as my EVO 4G, especially when I'm in my car, where I need it the most. Seems like it may be more sensitive to road noise...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
I think it depends quite a bit on the app. With Swype my voice recognition is maybe 50% if I'm being generous. With FlexT9 it's probably around 95%.

With Speaktoit it's probably on around 75%, Iris maybe 60-65%, Omega probably 80-90%, Voice Search probably 95-99% (it rarely misses unless there is a lot background noise.)

Voice Search is definitely much, much more accurate on my E4GT than it ever was on my EVO 4G.

...should I return the other one, or put it on ebay or the marketplace here on XDA?

I guess it was a processing mistake. And they sent me two GNs and charged me with the upgrade price of $250. If I sell my second one, would verizon know? They said that they would refund all charges if I return the phone. I kninda would not mind extra money.

What does XDA think?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] smalltownbird:
Be careful it doesn't screw up upgrade eligibility if you have more then one lime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rpnunez:
This is definately something to consider. You dont want to be stuck with a GN for 4 years!

Just call back and ask youre worried about your future upgrade, and youre going to give a ypunger family member the second Galaxy Nexus for Christmas (this way it atleast seems like you dont want to sell it).

Or, right off the bat, just ask them when youre next upgrade is available. If they say something like 2015, say the Christmas gift story. If not, just say cool, because you got 2 GN at BOSS prices lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
trade the other for a gsm version. heh heh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] b15love:
They give 50 off if you have a ECPD doliscount(employee discount ex. USPS etc). I got mine for 150 which was that in addition to the extra 100 off 4g promo they are/were having.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blubyu87gt:
I wouldn't think they could extend your contract four years like that. I am pretty sure the systems wont allow for anything more then 2 years. I would be more worried about getting charged full retail for it... That said I would wait till my bill posted and look it over. If all is well then sell the thing!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zlatty:
Those are some really good suggestions y'all.

I checked online and it says:

I guess the GN is going to last me through grad school.

I see I was charged 500+ish on my CC for the two card, just like the receipt that I got with the phones.

This does not change anything. I'll call verizon and see if I can give this to my GF or something. She has verizon, but is on her family's plan. I seriously need to convert her away from the i*hone.
