Find my phone is faster (at least more responsive) than many of my friends phone. Makes me happy to see them on gingerbread on a better phone when I'm on the buttery jelly bean!! Haha!!

Using slim bean v2.5 and cyancore 2.1 kernel
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Magmanthe:
Hey. I was just wondering. Been out of the mod scene a long while now. Last i did anything to my phone it was Darky Rom v10.4.2.

But I NEED to do something. It's so freaking slow now it's horrible.

Been looking around and seeing a lot of people saying SlimBean is good. Other's say CyanogeMod 10 is good.

I was also wondering, since it's been a while, with the SlimBean, is it "all included" (rom/kernel/etc?) or do I have to get the kernel/modem/radio from another source, and that the SlimBean is just a clean ROM without anything else?

I totaly agree with what all others have said so far.. SGS is a super phone. It is even perfect size. S2 and 3 are too big I think.

Sorry for highjacking the thread a little.

Right now I'm using Gamerzrom v 1.2 with devil kernel .71 .

With tweaked ondemand governor (40% up threshold, 15 sampling down factor), ROW and 120% liveoc I've got 4999 on AnTuTu - and gamerzrom coder is planning to add nexus s 3D libs to next version (200-300 3D REAL score increase, not just in benchmarks) :D

After 3 years, my i9000 still manages to surprise me :rolleyes:

Also, I totally agree about the size of this phone: I feel it's perfect.

I'm just sad that's (of course) not possible to upgrade parts of the hardware like PCs :(

I agree I bought mine second hand and usually change my phone every 6 months but I've had it for two years now lol
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Octhellio:
Galaxy S is amazing, I loved mine but sold it when I switched to a Note 1 last summer. I always regretted that so I bought another one last week, put in a new polarcell 1800mAh battery and I'm using it again as my primary phone :p
[Galaxy S I9000 General] farfalk:
I wonder if our device will be able to run Key Lime Pie... I guess it depends on whether Nexus S will get it or not :confused:

P.s. Seems like next version of Gamerzrom is going to be CMbased with lots of fixes and performance increase - can't wait! :p
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ElmirBuljubasic:
Nexus s doesnt have 4.2...lol be happy
[Galaxy S I9000 General] farfalk:
Cyanogenmod didn't release android 4.2 for nexus s? I always thought i9000 and nexus s were quite similar
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ballsofsteel:
Nexus S doesn't have official 4.2 but still has CM support
[Galaxy S I9000 General] farfalk:
So, if nexus s will get key lime pie (through CM or similar of course) I suppose we will get it too!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lukesan:
Exactly the same here. I have had a lot of phones in the last 5 years. Lets see where to start e61, e61i, e71, htc touch, htc touch pro, htc hd2, htc desire hd, zte blade, motorola defy+ ...

And now I use the S1 as my business phone and the S2 as my private with data phone.

Most of the phones I have owned are second hand ones. I was first feeling a bit strange about buying a S1 after the metal HTC's but now and with the experience I had with HTC warranty I will not buy a HTC anymore ... ever!

Last week I bought my wife a second hand S1 and just ordered the original 1650 (plus model) a screenprotector and a gel casing and she is really happy.

Yes, the S2 is faster but if you can't compare ... no point of doing so. It perfectly fits in the hand, does all the latest and greatest.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lucky88shp:
Reading posts like these, I feel like I should buy a great condition SGS1 from ebay.....

Does CM10 support WiFi-Direct? Or does any other ROMs?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] lucky88shp:
Anyone aware of any ROMs that support WiFi-Direct natively? I am trying to find one and no one is replying to my this question! Please someone, tell me if you know any that support WiFi-Direct for i9000?

Since you are a noob you should learn some rules to search yourself. Copying and pasting your question into google would have provided you with an instant answer

Nice to hear, but I got verious problems on each custom rom for my i9000 so I decided to switch back to stock 2.3.6 rom. ;(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] oyanezg:
Yeah in official it does. At least in the leaked 1 and it works on xlq4

Can't believe those idiots that answered noobiest and stuff like that, like if they knew all in the beginning. This forums are for help not to mock on people. But well... There you go. It works
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kamikaze_in:
couldn't have put it better, although my galaxy S took a leap forward in destruction and ended with "encryption unsuccessful" still i was able to revive it 4 months back and its still running fairly well :) i am pretty sure Samsung must have really regretted making the galaxy s, as its the only phone that has almost everything a phone needs.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] leave0:
aame to me ,but i think S3 is more better!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] blchinezu:
I still have i9000 too.

I first broke the glass+touch+display and then broke the battery pins but I still preferred to fix it than to get any other phone on the market.

Very good phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] fcorazza:
I had to put mine on the shelf since GPS stopped working and WiFi signal is so weak that it would reach the AP only if I stay 40cm close from it. I believe I screwed it up when I removed that sort of tape on the middle chassis cover, and some of the gold pins that connect the board to the middle chassis went bust. I'd like to repair it because no GPS and weak WiFi are a bit of a limit even if I want to sell it. If anyone has any suggestion... as a replacement I bought an LG Optimus 4X HD which is going great now since we've got the bootloader unlocked :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Veyrontarga:
Exactly! I'm really disappointed that the i9000 may not be getting CM11 though :(

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ego-Zogger:
you´re damn right man!

size is very handy, sgs2 is a little bit too big, but still ok. dropped my phone so often and after 2 1/2 years only the back cover broke (which happend in the last 3 months :angel:)

but without flashing the latest roms it would probably **** me up - gingerbread sucked :laugh:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ocularis:
This phone lasted me up until last week when if finally took it's last breath.

Loved every moment and every version of it, and i doubt i will have another phone for as long as this lasted me. :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rekull:
It is a great phone indeed, i've had it for 2.5 years and it's still going. I'm really proud of the phone and i will not change it until i see it can't keep up anymore. But for the time being it's great, after all it was the samsung flagship with over 10 milion buyers
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alireza40ir:

SGS is the BEST
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Classie83:
Just wanted to add to the SGS love fest. Got it as soon as it came out in June '10 to replace my G1 (a co-worker dropped my poor G1 and broke the screen). Anyway, this phone is a trooper. It is insanely durable. It's been dropped on concrete, into chlorinated swimming pools, toilets, onto asphalt. There is nary a scratch on the screen. The body/cover shows its age with a few scratches around the trim, but it's no big deal. For going on three years, this phone has served me very well (despite its GPS issues). I've been looking into the GS4 because I'd like a nice shiny new toy. I'm a little concerned about updates because I don't really feel like going through the trouble of rooting (I rooted my G1 which was a hassle), but it seems that Samsung has gotten better with updates since the SGS (stuck on Froyo). So we'll see...If I do get another phone, I will keep the Vibrant (T-Mobile variant) as back-up.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PaulN543:
I've had my Galaxy S GT-i9000 since May 2010, still using it to this date. I've had the chance to buy several other phones, including the Galaxy S III GT-i9300. I refuse to move away from my beloved i9000 until the day it breaks. I've had multiple different ROMs flashed to it. It truly is unbrickable! I have dropped it thousands of times, no damage at all. Only thing that is different, I sanded the bezel down to the flat grey underneath. Looks really tidy. Better than the chrome paint from factory! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] origami_ns:
Nothing to add, this phone will never die, I am using S and S+ phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rayenvs:
Yes still going strong with the sgs.

Great phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Cyberchecker:
Usually I don't keep my phones very long, but my i9001 is an exception because it works best for me. I don't like these huge screens but I still want to see something if I browse the web and stuff, so the Galaxy S Plus is both compact and comfortable to read. It's also very fast on CM10. Don't know why I should get a new phone with quad-core CPU or something else. Support here is great as well - hope there will be such awesome ROMs in the future as well :good:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] origami_ns:

Best phone ever in my hand... it has dropped several times and always has turned on... last week it just swam in toilet i took it from the water and was still on xD i removed all and after it dried its just back again... installed new rom now it flies again... the only con its just the lack of the LED flash otherwise best phone ever.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] saw man:
I've a hate love relationship with my S1, its laggy since day one . I've tried a hundred ROM noun which works for me that well , except ICS RC2 which was the best ROM I've ever tried , but I had (data.data problem and when I know hot to fix it ~ it became extra slow).

Nevertheless, I love its design and its camera ,yet, the RAM was my worst nightmare , I've increased it to be 410 mb ,also I over clocked it to be 1400 Hz ,and it still laggy even in most basic tasks (all I got is heat bearing my hands , quick battery draining, and my GPS had stopped working forever ) .

So developers community, can you recommend me a ROM 2.X>>>4.X that will work smoothly and with no heat(I live in 40° C country) until I got enough money to buy a HTC One

[Galaxy S I9000 General] count0zero:
I've given in and am going for the Nexus 4. I feel that my Galaxy could go on forever as long as apps dont go 3D and all require a multi-core. So the only reason is I want the snappiness of todays devices, with the larger screen and slightly better cameras.

A round of applause though for this Galaxy S. It even fought off a Galaxy Nexus (sold after one day last year as I didn't see why I needed the upgrade).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AlexsamaM:
I have an acer s500 atm but I think to come back to my i9000, had nice moments with it, my current phone has no development area.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DozerD:
Personally, I've found no snappier, smoother and better maintained ROM than Mackay ROM!

In my case, overclocking has rarely helped me improve performances. It tends to cause FC's and reboots, and increases heat, certainly if I also tweak governor and/or scheduler aggressively too.

But the best news is that I really don't need such tweaks anymore, because this ROM is, and has become, so incredibly fast, responsive and buttery in itself! The only one occasionally impeding this system is me, installing a good 100+ apps which don't all work well together all the time.

And perhaps I should mention that I don't use this phone for gaming, which in itself is asking for trouble as players will always seek to cross any given limits :)

For further customization and speedy snappiness I happily lean on the fast and versatile Nova Prime launcher as well as a couple of extra themes and icon sets.

Last reason to give Mackay a decent try would be the highly responsive developer, kasper_h, who'll give you updates all the time, plus a nifty choice between two recoveries.

All in all there's no comparing this phone whatsoever, to the slow and laggy one that came with Froyo once, and with an unattractive and impractical and super slow camera app, a desperate need for system managers and task killers and (later on) Juice Defenders, which was the same SGS that I originally bought :)

I wish you and your I9000 many years to come, keeping it cool in that heat of yours :)

I like mine, but I really wish samsung would make it a slick metal casing instead of the plastic. It was the reason htc fanboys didn't migrate. Now htc fans migrate for performance (SIII) :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] csmiler:
Totally agree, although I've since shifted to to a Note 2 and traded in my Galaxy S for a discount, I still miss it!

The only things I prefer are the increased ram, screen size and maybe the flash.

Quad core isn't all it's said to be, my galaxy S with PA would breeze through most tasks comfortably enough.

Bye bye my SGS ; (

Hi everyone,

After 3 good years of use, my SGS still running great , thanks to the great XDA community !

Since one week, i finally decided to take a new phone because a friend propose me a never use HTC One for 450 E (price in france is 600E) so i've jump on it !

I don't regret at all, the HTC One is a spectacular phone but i will miss my SGS and the community here :crying:

Thanks to XDA developres! They still my phone alive after three years! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kipue:
I have to say thanks too!

The SGS is my backup phone (right now my N4 is in repair), and I can still enjoy great android experience thanks to it!

Although it is now a little slow, I have to say
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ooohhh2:
Sorry to bump this old thread of mine. Just want to tell you guys how much i enjoyed my galaxy s till its display broke last week, as I dropped it for the 10.0000th time. It's my backup phone now to receive calls on my old number. (Currently running 4.4 quite smoothly with Mackay ROM)

Actually i wanted to replace it with moto g which has a ridiculous price for what it brings, but came out with an LG G2 (didn't see that coming at all). The G2 reportedly doesn't sell as good as expected, that must be the reason why I've got it for a crazy deal (total of 240€ to be paid in 24 months). It's a beast of a phone. I slept over Android world recently, now it's getting exciting all over again.

Want to thank all the devs again for all the great work! Keep it that way!

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 General] WranglerHuss:
I was quite fascinated by your take on the phone. I, myself, have had the phone for over 2 years now and it has been my only Android device for a while now. I did think about switching to atleast the S2 in the knowledge that it has 1GB RAM compared to S1's 512MB which I thought is a considerable difference in terms of fluidity of operations. However, I was told that it is better to invest more money in another device if it is really a significant leap over the old technology, and I was told that S2 was not quite there in that regard.

Recently, I had my eyes on the Nexus 7 2013 tablet but it's known issues (ghost touches/GPS failures) advocated against its purchase. Then it was the LG G Pad 8.3 that a friend here on XDA recommended but considering the lack of tab optimized apps on Android tablets, I decided against it. Soon after, I was suggested the iPad Air which I have been seriously considering. However, I am not quite sure if that would be the right thing to do investing so much money on or not. I would be using it at home for the most part, so that goes in its favour.

In the meanwhile, I was wondering if I should root the i9000 to a KitKat ROM. A friend recently rooted it to Cyanogen mod Jelly Bean so I was thinking maybe it's going to be better to have it upgraded to the latest version. However, I'd want to know the most stable combination to do so. Would you recommend the kind of upgrade over Jelly Bean and why? I'd really like your help in this regard.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Krusade:

+1 what he said. Mackay Rom is the best one now for Galaxy S.

[MENTION=5523095]WranglerHuss[/MENTION].

I don't know what you really need, but basically it's good to wait a little bit for the right device to come. I'm glad i did so. The leap is so huge then. :D But i would say the power of today's high end phones will be sufficient for long years to come.

If you are not a heavy user, i would recommend to get Moto G. It's crazy good for its price. Very smooth performance. And it will get updates quite soon, because google owns motorola now.

If you need big screen consider LG G2, some may say it's already a phablet. But after 2-3 days of use i got used to it pretty fast. And i swear on its display. You have to try one out to believe it. IPS ftw!

But appearently LG failed at marketing it, so there might be some great deals going on with it now. I got mine for a total 240€ to be paid in 2 years. You can't beat that! It's the first device i had, where i don't really care about future update, because it flat out works like i want.

If you're concerned about the unexpandable battery or internal memory: the battery is the best i've seen, it has 3000 mah, and for the internal memory i have found myself an awesome solution. Take a look here: http://www.meenova.com/st/p/m3r.html#devList

Thanks to USB OTG function i can swap in any micro sd up to 64 gb in a second ;) You might use that for other compatible devices as well.

But in the meantime, still enjoy your galaxy s. ;)

Same here! Agust 2010, I wanted the HTC Desire but I only could afford a Huawey Selina. The shop assistant told me that they have a new phone and showed me, it was an awesome device but no money so I bought the Selina, 5 min later (or less) I was back asking for my money back beacuse I wanted the Galaxy. At first I felt terrible for spending that amount of money in a phone but a couple of days later, I had no regrets It was the right choice, and now in 2013, It´s still an awesome phone. I dont feel the need of buying a new one, I still can play some new videogames, check my mail, surf on the internet, multitasking, HD movies, etc.

Sadly, the GPS didnt work as it should (know how to fixt it but dont have the time) but I have and old Nokia GPS bluetooth antenna and works great!

Well, a huge part of making that possible is that great dev community that updates our phone to the latest android version, it really sucked that Samsung decided to left us in order to focus on the SGS2.
