[Galaxy S I9000 General] Wond3r:
I am used to custom roms and android on many different devices. Have flashed many on SGS2 successfully, but am now facing issues with i9000!

(bell)

its Froyo

build number- FROYO-UGJL2

firmware version - 2.2

model number- gt-I9000M

I rooted with superoneclick, unlocked with GalaxyS_unlock

My goals: install CWM of course, and flash a custom rom (preferably a GB one)

I have no idea what to touch in this guide because my phone doesnt have any Jxx build numbers

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=788108

so then I looked at this guide-

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1379650

the "flashing jvp" rom link doesnt work so I cant follow that guide.

There are so many JVP and JVK etc etc I dont want to mess anything up

Since there is no UGL2 in the guides, should I update through samsung kies to their latest version and then re-root? Assuming the latest version through kies gives me a compatible build number

OR am I over thinking this, since I have successfully rooted, should I just download rom manager and install CWM from there?

And then go on to flash kg3 modem and install whichever rom I want?

Do I have to look for i9000m compatible roms?

--I just tried to use rom manager to get cwm, it said it worked fine but my recovery shows as 3e , not cwm
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Lexrsk:
personally i would either upgrade using Kies or firmware from samfirmware to GB then root

Use Odin to flash JVT and take it from there.

After that you can flash the root kernel then flash whichever from you'd like.

The above link will get you odin and all the firmware you need.

Download the most recent JW5 firmware 2.3.6. Download the North American firmware UGKG3 2.3.3. Both these downloads need to be unzipped. Now in odin you will use the PDA file from JW5 and the modem and csc files from UGKG3. There are pit files included with the odin software download. Use the 512 pit file. Put your phone in download mode and flash it. Tell me when you done this and I'll how to root. It's very easy.

From this link. Download semaphore 2.7.4. tar. Place this file in pda and hit start. Takes about ten seconds and you're rooted.

To install a custom rom. Power down phone and use three button combo to access recovery and and install from sd. Choose zip. I recommend Dmore3.3 made for jw5. After you install a rom I recommend re flashing your kg3 modem and csc again in odin. Only those two nothing in pda. Enjoy
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Wond3r:
The person above you told me to flash JVT :confused:

Also it doesnt matter if I flash things that are not for i9000M? JW5 doesnt look like its for i9000m.

I should not use all the files from KG3? Whats the benefit from using the modem files from jw5 as opposed to kg3?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vanisleryan:
Bud your phone is essentially a I9000, I live in Canada, Victoria to be exact and my phone used to say I9000m on it, now it doesn't because I run jw5 as my pda. Anything made for I9000 will run on your phone. Just run kg3 as your modem and csc. The guy telling you to run jvt... I don't know why, it's an old, buggy rom. JW5 is the most recent and most likely the last update for the I9000. PDA is just the part of your phone that basically makes the phone do the cool stuff it does. Modem is the part that decides whether or not you will have good coverage. That's why you use kg3, because that is the bell Canada modem. It will be fine. Note the first link I gave you, notice how the title says both I9000 and I9000m that's because they are the same phone. Your phone is only an m because you are running the stock bell firmware. You can flash kg3 for the whole thing if you want pda included... But they are no good root kernels for it and I don't believe there are any custom roms for it. But it's better than what you have now.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Wond3r:
Did all of that, but no matter what I flash as the pda, the phone will not boot.

If I flash the kg3 as pda, the phone will boot.

I found a pre-rooted kd3 on xda and flashed that as modem and even that will not boot.

after flashing kg3 to get it to boot, i tried flashing semaphore and I get stuck in a bootloop so I had to flash kg3 again

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] BigPhil:
I have been messing about with the Android SDK and come up with this, an Xperia SmartTag maker.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vexedbadger.smarttagmaker

I put it on the Play market literally 10 minutes ago. Its free and works great. No adverts or rubbish like that.

I know there are other apps out these that can write NFC tags, and I think I have used most of them. This is a much easier experience, and infinitely less flexible. I am a big fan of one tool to do one job. I will post some screenshots when my new domain name is active.

Anyway, if you are interested in SmartTags and have some stickers, check it out.

My favourite use case at the moment is to take 25mm sticker (purchased from www.rapidnfc.com), code it as a SmartTag and stick it to a car mount (a Brodit Proclip in my case). Use the Xperia SmartTag app to connect via bluetooth to the car stereo and then run my app Car Mode On. Finally make sure that the app Car Home v3 is installed (not mine). This launches when car mode is activated. Now, when I dock my phone, and unlock it, within 5 seconds I have it in car mode and connected to my speakers.

How do you use SmartTags?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
Oh wow, thanks for writing this :-)

I rewrote one of my Sony tags and have been too lazy to rewrite it by hand, I will test it out tomorrow but I think this is exactly what I was looking for!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] btbeeston:
Great little app, I love your approach to software, simple and clean!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] BigPhil:
Glad you like it. Now I have to decide what to write next. Perhaps fighting with Dock Mode so I can have a tag in a stand beside my bed?

Saying that it will probably be something mundane like a widget to remind me when to take the bins out and if it is a recycle week...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] frickinlandez:
^ Ha, actually did laugh out loud at that last comment! Seriously though, you could tag your bin and get your phone to play 'Hi Ho, Hi Ho, it's off to work we go!' whenever you take it out.

Just me? Ahem...

In seriousness though, just downloaded your app and will be hooking myself up with some tags shortly. Had never looked and had no idea they were so cheap - ace! Will let you know how I fair : )

(Produces a hairless cat, swiveling chair and shiny silver suit from nowhere...

Wonder if I can find out what my works pass transmits and clone it to a tag which I could stick to the underside of one of my watches? Instead of producing a really thick credit card like object with a bad picture of my boat-race on, a mere flick of the wrist (Maatron!) could do the trick...)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] BigPhil:
Post updated to have screenshots. My website DNS entry has finally started working.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] BigPhil:
Be careful what you wish for. My latest project has just been put on the app store

NFC Bin Buddy

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vexedbadger.binbuddy

It lets you encode a date, some recurring rules and a notification type to an NFC tag. Stick this on your bin. Now, when you wave your phone over it it tells you how long until that bin is due to be collected. A really elegant abuse of technology.

[Americans, "bin" == "trash can"]
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smallz2k:
How much are regular NFC tags cos there's not a chance id pay the £20 for 4 glorified profile setups that T-Mobile asked!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] BigPhil:
I personally use rapidnfc.com they are uk based and have a wide range. Postage is expensive (2.50) and you need to add vat .they do some nice starter packs.

EBay is pretty cost effective for small volumes.

Dognfc.com has been recommended , but I have never used it.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DivinityCycle:
Hey folks, this may seem like a dumb question.

I've got a 16GB WiFi-only Galaxy Tab 10.1 (GT-P7510). I'm running AOKP on it and I'm somewhat happy with that, but I'd like my camera and other stuff to work. As far as I can tell, the only way that's going to happen is after the stock ICS is released (need the stock ICS kernel for the hardware to all work correctly). There's no ETA on the official release of ICS for my device, just that it will happen "sometime". I registered my device at:

Is there any other / better way to get notified when ICS is released / leaked? Is this the best forum to be looking at for such an announcement?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] therealkenc:
Hi. I have a GT-P7500R. Certain apps from Play, like "The Economist", won't install because they whitelist their devices and mine comes up as a "Rogers Wireless Samsung GT-P7500R" which is not supported. Of course the unit is just a vanilla 3G P7500.

I rooted the unit and searched high and low in the filesystem for this string and can't find it (it's not in /system/build.prop). I even upgraded to Ice Cream Sandwich in the hopes of exorcising Rogers but the string still shows up in the app store.

I downloaded the apk using the chome plugin and installed it manually. But that's not my question. Where is this Rogers string coming from, and can I change or spoof it? It's driving me crazy that I can't find the string anywhere. Maybe I'll learn something.

TIA
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wewewi999:
Hmm.. so you flashed your Tab with AOKP ou CM9 and it still tells you it is a Rogers device..

Ever tried after removing the SIM card?

EDIT: Yep, it reads at least a part from the sim card 'cause I have a Rogers Tab on Rogers RUXKK2 rom, but I sim-unlocked it, Im using a Bell sim, and it tells me I have a Bell Samsung GT-P7500R

(Which doesnt exists =p)

Of course, if it still tells you it is a GT-P7500

even under ICS with no sim card on board, well... that might be a problem..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] therealkenc:
Smart idea, thanks. But I pulled the SIM card and it still comes up as "Rogers Wireless Samsung GT-P7500" when I try to install the app from the Play website. Note the "R" is gone, but that is because of ICS (or specifically, /system/build.prop). Baffling! I've grepped the whole filesystem, including /proc. It doesn't make sense. I wonder what API Play is using to get that string.

I've been a big fan of Antutu and have been using it to compare performances for several phones. However, I noticed that in several places when they compare Att vs. International hox, no one posted the Antutu benchmark results.

Below is the result from international HOX.

And this is the result from my local Att store's HOX

There is a huge difference. And they still say that the two phones are comparable in processor performance, why?

Sent from my HTC One X on Leedroid's ROM v5.0.0.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mesasone:
This topic has already been discussed ad nauseum in this forum. Antutu is highly threaded and thus able to take advantage of all four cores on the Tegra 3. In the rare situations where an app is able to take full advantage of four cores of the Tegra3, it will come out ahead. However, this does not represent the common use case. Even on the desktop, few apps take advantage of more than one core, let alone two. The advantage of four cores is debatable. The advantage of faster, more energy efficient cores is not.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Maroon Mushroom:
I agree. Every benchmark has it's own bias.

For example, the dual core will destroy the quad in something like linpack. Or increasing just the SD cache size will add a ridiculous amount to your quadrant score.

None of them truly represent actual performance. The only ones that can would be actual in-game benchmarks of games with the FPS shown. And that's just if you want to benchmark the gaming performance.

I'm also on Optus and am finding LPT modem much better than LRB, especially when 3G signal is low. It switches automatically to 2G and then back to 3G once the signal strength goes up. Battery life is also very good on LPT when coupled with Notecore kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dtswk:
I've just completed 10 tests, both with really good signal and marginal signal.

On average I am finding LBR is twice the throughput of LPT... up and down. (Obviously varies from test to test) Interesting ping seems to be very close though.

Dunno, maybe it's just me... but going to hang with this for a week and see how it behaves. Going to be travelling to Sydney as well so will test out of Canberra.
