This is getting confused, I wonder why a "must upgrade from 2.6" notice (or some proper - oh-you're-an-idiot-and-you-haven't-upgraded-in-a-month-or-so instructions) hasn't been already posted in the installation instructions. WTH.

Anyway, I've read the FAQ, the only one that was close to the bootloop problem said: yaddayadda install compatible kernel. Didn't really mean anything to me due to the constant change of partitions layout so I grabbed Semaphore 2.2.0/s as suggested in the installation instructions and flashed that.

Now I'm on CWM recovery and I'm trying to flash 2.7 which is now giving me an error with "Status 0".

I've read someone before had the same problem and he's been suggested to flash 2.6 first, which at this point I'm probably unable to do (as it won't boot to android). Suggestions?

But I'm here asking and I wonder if there's a rule of thumb for these situations: I'm not probably the only one who can't keep up with the number of posts on this forum (which is the reason why I prefer checking the website straight away).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LaurensJ:
Anyone tried Semaphore 2.4.0 yet on SlimBeam 2.7
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] eejee:
This is a silly answer. Many sgs users experience wifi issues with JB roms, including myself. Wifi on my Tab 2 with CM10 works great, so the router is not the cause. While it may not be a Slim Bean issue, it can't be dismissed that easily.

Hi folks, I'm really struggling with this 2.7 update on my i9000.

Updated my N7000 earlier, and I love it. But for whatever reason I cannot successfully update the i9000 from slimbean 2.2, up to 2.7.

Of course I have done the full wipe, wipe cache, wipe dalvik... and followed the instructions to the letter,.... but no joy !! what is going wrong??

This is the message I'm getting:

(red triangle in the middle of the screen, with exclamation mark)

e: error in /sdcard/i9000.zip

(status 0)

installation aborted

please help !!!

edit - I've just re-installed 2.2, no problems... which was 20mb less. Is this an issue with file size??

hi guys..

Have been using our beloved aging I9000 for about 18 months, most of them on custom ROMs, my favorite being the slims!! :) Anyway, so i decided to finally move on, got myself a shiny Note-II..and boy is it an awesome device!! :D

So just wanted to thank the entire community here, most of all the respected developers, krarvind, slappy, prbassplayer, mnazim..jst to name a few..but not to forget the members of xda, ever ready to help out!!

will definitely join the slim bandwagon whenever K decides to bestow some love on the Note-II!! :fingers-crossed:

So long..fellow flashers!! :highfive:

Ok managed to copy 2.6 on the external sd card, moved the 2.6 zip from within the CWM recovery (so happy there's a file manager now), then flashed 2.6 and then 2.7 and the rest of it.

I love the Slim series.

Is there a guide somewhere that explains how to maximize speed with Slim? For example:

1. If I install AIO, does this slow things down?

2. Are there certain apps/widgets recommended over others for maximum speed?

3. Is it true that the more apps you install, the slow the OS runs?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dark_knight35:
AIO includes all the addons, so if you use all of them, your RAM usage is also higher. Only apps that run slow your system down, when you install, let's say angry pigs, you won't be like 'OMG, my phone's so slow!!

"XXXX" could not be downloaded due to an error. (942)

Hi guys,

I am encountering this problem on downloading some apps that worked perfectly on 2.6. I cannot download Google Maps which I use a lot. Error message in Google Play says -- "Maps" could not be downloaded due to an error. (942) -- Some of the downloads are fine like google search etc. Maps does not show up in my search. When I access google play on web and try to install Maps from there, my device is shown in drop down as a disabled entry that cannot be selected. Thus install button remains disabled. I've flashed new slim_gaap after installing slim 2.7 as given in the instructions. Is anyone else facing the same issue?

BTW, I am fan of slim roms. Using since initial versions and never faced any major issue. Thanks for all good work.

Yasir
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] prbassplayer:
If you would have read 2.6 change log you know there's a difference in partition from 2.5 upwards and has the explanation on how to flash. To be fair you could have flashed strait to 2.7 just applying 2.6 instructions. FAQ explained how to get recovery back. Not rocket science, if you can't bother to read or look for your answers your in the wrong g place ;).

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yaneck:
On SlimBean 2.6 and now 2.7 I have problem with widgets - it crushes after I connect my phone to PC as USB storage. Instead of widgets I see white shapes and I have to re-add widgets. Widgets are installed on phone memory.

After updating to 2.7 I see weird behaviour of camera - when I tap back button instead of turning off camera it turns picture 90 degress right(only when holding phone in landscape other way it stays like it was), after second tap on back button camera turns off. So to turn it off always I need to tap back button twice.

Any ideas?

Ok it seems that you guys have made a "silent update" to the 2.7 version for I9000 as the zip I downloaded on October 12th is different size than the one that shows uploaded today. So naturally I downloaded the new Slim-i9000-2.7.0-OFFICIAL.zip 76,7 MB (80*503*022 bytes) along with the new Slim_Gapps.zip 19,3 MB (20*313*600 bytes) also from today. Wiped cache/dalvik and flashed device zip + gapps. Phone booted, showing updating 85 apps. I go into Play Store and try to install Chrome browser and get "Your device isn't compatible.."

What's going on here?

I am fully stock and seem to be experiencing a few annoying lags. Opening apps seems to take an age (up to 15-20 seconds) and the interaction while in them is very sluggish too. I'm also getting "xxx isn't repsonding, do you want to close it?" messages quite regularly. Once in them and fully settled they seem to work ok, it's just the initial opening that appears to lag.

I hope this is a simple fix as the rom itself seems pretty flawless except for this lagging. :crying:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nevzat74:
I've faced such FC/freeze errors when I restored apps with data from Titanium Backup. The only fix is to reset the app data, this most probably works.

However I'm still facing lags, currently we have to live with it.

How can I go back to SlimICS? :crying:

Do I need to flash any extra files or just the 2 SlimICS files here?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Lord_Santa:
It's always best to do a factory reset/full wipe, wipe cache and dalvik. Then flash the ROM, you may have some hiccups during installation though because of the differing partition layouts between ICS and Jelly Bean, but none of them should be really major.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yash1229:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] prbassplayer:
FC is probably because you restored app data. Lag is something that is going to be there until someone finds a possible work around to our crappy NAND. Use one of Der Teufel's datadata kernels (be warn you will loose about 100MB of /system)

Crap I'll post that in bugs on the Site when I get home. We thought it was solved.

Low wifi is something I've gotten on DerTeufels cm10, Pawtip's CM10 and slim. Something in JB source is messing it up. There are links on this thread for modes play stores for different dpi
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ophirb:
Flashed Devil kernel and the lag is much better now so it seems then with Semaphore. I csn see that datadata directory was created again. Maybe Krarvind will sort all of these issues in the next release.

Now it is more like the Slim ICS 4.2.

Your problem sounds very similar to one posted previously.. Read it & try the solution..

"Please post your results, so others can benefit from if it works"..

(This is extracted from page 432)..

I updated from ICS to 2.6 and to 2.7 in a few minutes.

Have the DPI problem, but fixed it like this:

First I flashed all four multi dpi play stores offered on the Slim site

Then I got fed up, went 240 DPI, restarted

Went to OTA app, deleted market

Re flashed the older one on the site (non inverted)

Works on 240 DPI, so changed to 182, restarted

Works now.

As previously posted you have to download the Updated zips for the ROM and gapps/aio and flash them these are updated with the MDPI market etc. Flash these and if you still have issues do a clean wipe/factory reset. You will not have any issues as of such.! :)

disable proximity sensor detection

Hellop guys,

my proximity sensor is broken. every app which wanna grab proximity data is crashing. even my phone app. it needs 32 seconds after taking a call until I can speak with the caling person. in the 32 my phone is frozen because of useless data of proximity sensor. even light sensor gives always the same value so its even proken I think. So even light an proximity sensor are controlled by GP2A driver. is there any option to give proximity value a fix value like "0", so that my phone thinks I don't have my phone on my ear for calling? I know, if its fixed on "1" the screen will noch turn off before timeout bu better than waiting 32 seconds to take a call. Or is disabling GA2P driver the better way for solving my problem?

Or can anybody please upload a modified sensor.aries.so withe disabled/deactivatet proximity sensor?

Thanks guys! :)

Solution!

After a litte search on WEB i found a litte tutorial which leads me to edit sensors.aries.so to disable GA2P.

I edited and copied it to \system\lib\hw\ an replaced existing file (make backup, just in case ). After reboot "z-Device Test" shows me that Proximity Test and Light Sensor Test isn't available anymore, because missing Sensors

So everything works fine for me. But even Acclerometer and Compass is disabled. Is there a way to disable Proximity Sensor and Light Sensor without deactivating Compass and Acclerometer?

I attached the modded .so (please unzip and copy manually to \system\lib\hw\)

Thanx

UPDATE:

I serches in sensors.aries.so for a entry which is causing the 32 seconds delay (infinite loop with stop parameter) and found the cousing entry. I deletet it an now, all sensors are shown in any app as availabe and they work also. But broken Proximit Sensor is now not causing any loop (32 sec freeze).

So everyone with broken proximity sensor an black screen while make a call and or 32 second freeze by taking a call, just replace the sensors.aries.so in the attached zip in \system\lib\hw and hit Thanks Button here :)
