You actually showing the performance of the kernel not the rom, and no even mentioning the kernels.
[Nexus One General] tengtou:
Im not sure what kernals they are, just the roms itself, and whichever kernals came with it...
[Nexus One General] deprecate:
Or perhaps, once Cy gets his hands on 2.2 (when published to aosp), we will see just how amazing froyo can be when unrestricted.

[EVO 4G Accessories] jokerpt50:
so if the battery is the same for Evo as the TP2 and Hero then one can assume the Seidio extended battery for the Hero/TP2 works for the Evo? just wondering cause it is about $10-$15 cheaper and available on amazon. does anyone have this battery and does it make a noticeable difference (about 20% batter life)
[EVO 4G Accessories] jokerpt50:
does anyone know??

Following packages have been updated for all ROMS

Camera updated to 2012 package

looks like the camera package was updated i went from running may 1st version to may 22nd and in between it was updated i think this may be the culprit. i tried the screenshot above and no dice.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ramsey:
Thanks for unlocked-mobiles.com I haven't seen that website before. For international (canada) it's very cheap.

There is also clove.co.uk which has it for a good price.

I will be pre-ordering probably.. and most probably this week.

I will maybe use unlocked-mobiles to order, however I heard that Royal Mail is not the best service to use.

In my opinion the Galaxy i9000's ROM is nearly full featured. Root will definitely help but it seems already great, and it's one of the reasons I will be choosing this over other phones. Also the good large screen that is good against the sun's reflection.

Edit: Actually it seems complicated to order internationally with unlocked-mobiles. I'll stick to expansys.ca or clove.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hashfoo:
Just to let you know that I have never used them before, so don't know how reliable/etc they are. As I say, I emailed them last night and they got back to me before noon today, so at least their customer service is pretty good. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
For me it is easy to recommend Chris Love's Clove Technology.

I've known Chris for the best part of 20yrs and have never come across any other seller who is committed so highly to his customer base.

Clove are a reliable Family run business where they extend their family approach out to their customers.

They may not be the cheapest but you can guarantee if your phone develops a problem you can easily turn to Clove.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ramsey:
I heard also that Clove has great customer service and very reliable even for international shipping.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TravUK:
I've pre-ordered mine on www.mobiles.co.uk/vodafone-samsung-galaxy-s.html. Picked a £15 contract on Vodafone with £229 down payment. Unlocked of course. They are quoting stock for June 4th, as I ordered mine about 5 mins after they put up the pre-order I hope to be on the first batch :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hashfoo:
Awesome! I would love to get one as early as that! I have been waiting since it was announced, and I am so impatient...

I am put off Vodafone as their "unlimited" internet is 500mb/month, while t-mobile is 1gb (does anyone know if they will give 3gb if you tell them you are using an android device, even if they don't sell it to you? They have a 3gb allowance for android in their fair usage policy)

Do mobiles.co.uk sell unlocked phones? That would be neat, because I hate branding and the apps that the networks install. Hence why I am favouring unlocked (sim-free) phones now rather than waiting for the contracts to be announced.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TravUK:
Yep, all their mobiles are unbranded and unlocked. Am not too worried about the internet allowance, I tend to do the big stuff within WiFi range. But I think those caps will have to grow as more people start using android phones.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mykenyc:
I'm so jealous right now even though i got a nexus one this phone is amazing i really hope T-mobile USA gets this.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hashfoo:
I read somewhere that Samsung are releasing a T959-or similar which is a Galaxy S without the i9000 label. Usually the Samsung Txxx phones are T-mobile USA, apparently. So it's looking good for a T-mobile release over there.

Rumours are that all your 4 (?) major carriers are getting it. I hope something similar happens here: Nothing like good competition to bring prices down...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NZtechfreak:
I pre-ordered mine from Clove a few days back...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Nice one... so did I, right bang on the first day Chris announced it.

CU back in the AndroidForum. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] magicdroid:
For Germany, Amazon.de has it on pre-order too.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hassan:
I've pre order from clove as well, lets see when they deliver it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Strangely enough I contacted Chris Love of Clove only this morning to query the UK release, given what we heard yesterday at the Singapore Live Show where Singapore will be getting the phone first on the 5th June.

Chris came back to me and told me they had JUST received confirmation from Samsung tht a revised date is now as of and I quote from Chris ~ "We have now been given a shipment date of WK23 (W/C 7th June)".

Beards
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hassan:
Oh that's a really good news as I thought we wont be getting till 20th of June.

Can't wait to get my hands on it. Am getting sick of charging Desire almost every night.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Clove are now emailing all people who pre-ordered asking them to confirm they still want to go ahead.

All you need to do is either ring them or click on the email link they will send you. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ramsey:
Good news!

but is the price set yet ?

It's still on the estimated price, I believe.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
It is set at £385 + VAT where applicable.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ramsey:
He did email me this morning from clove because I had asked a question and he said it is still an estimated price, because I wanted to pricematch with handtec since it is 20 less. I'll buy from handtec then since both will be sold during June 7 week and it is cheaper and offers fedex shipping 2-4 days (to canada)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] v1rtu4l:
the flash-statement could also just indicate flashlite ... and the wifi-tethering does not have to be the froyo build function... its more likely a samsung app which they wrote by themselves (just like for the wave)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Cooki3s:
Desire uses flash lite aswell, even a more recent version (4.0) iirc. Samsung explicitly advertised wifi-hotspot in their lifestyle presentation at CTIA, before the froyo announcement, so it's a feature made by them. So it's probably gonna be running on eclair for now.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ramsey:
I saw the WIFI Hotspot support on the Wave and it's the exact same one on the Galaxy and in the review for Wave on mobileburn I believe the hotspot was working perfectly if I remember correctly. No need for Froyo for this, Samsung includes it freely. There is flashlite on the phone yes, and it worked quite well on the wave but there are bugs so it may be the same on the Galaxy, until official froyo flash support which will be faster.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] 0ne:
Carphonewarehouse again showing "in stock"
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hassan:
Yeah very confusing, its showing on CPW website in stock.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hashfoo:
If anyone gets an "order shipped" email, please let us know! I am going on holiday on the 23rd, and really want the phone before next week (not hopeful, I know) so that I can get some holiday entertainment on it sorted. I am willing to pay extra, so will buy from carphone warehouse or expansys if it means I get it soon!!

:D

Also, does anyone know if the "handset only" option from carphone warehouse is locked to vodafone?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Over the course of today I decided to watch the ad on Carphone Warehouse.

It went from being out of stock when I checked this morning to back in stock at around mid day to out of stock the next time I checked later in the afternoon to finally back in stock this evening.

It's like playing a game of tennis..... They really need to sort out their control system.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sundip:
I have been told some cpw stores will be getting it from monday.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rodh257:
ah ok, fair enough, didnt realise that they had their own wifi hotspot, cool. In that case I'm happy to wait a little bit for froyo, wifi hotspot was a big feature for me
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nicolopolus:
Heh, the CPW rally continues - now back to 'back order'! Intrigued to hear if Chris Love can shed any light Beards.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nicolopolus:
Question: is there any point in using this as a hotspot in the UK - don't all the carriers have in their ts&cs that you can't use it?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MAJED.y:
In handtec.co.uk site still "Due: Week Commencing 14th June 2010".

Is there a chance?!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nicolopolus:
Considering they've been one of the slowest sites to change their dates, I doubt it (despite how much that saddens me). Play.com updating to 28th is what's worrying me!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rodh257:
not sure, I'm from Australia (thinking of importing it :))
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferdimage:
first retailer to obtain stock of the "S" will definitely rack up the sales no doubt!!

but hey im with unlocked-mobiles and its been sitting on the 11/06 for ages, and really ive calmed now compared to my last post (sorry for the tantrum attack :P) and i guess we all just gotta wait... 24th of June sounds accurate and safe to say imo..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MAJED.y:
28th!!, this will be too much.

already made my payment at May, and they charged me and still waiting!.

let's make our hope a little high and see what will happen. (finger's crossed)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferdimage:
im from OZ too and your better off buying from OS as when its realeased here in our shores its gonna be 800+ dollars...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
That's another reason I obtain my hardware from Clove...... They don't debit your account until the day of dispatch to you.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferdimage:
yeah but no one expected a dirty delay from Samsung :P , things were looking good prior to June...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
I know... but no one can blame Clove for this.

If it's SIM free we are after it does not matter who we choose to get the phone from, it's all going to be around the same date.

So with everyone around the same date, as always I'll be getting mine from Clove who I both know & trust. :)

P.S. I'll be speaking with Clove sometime today.....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferdimage:
thats cools, ill email unlocked-mobiles too for ppl that have pre ordered there, so i can post an update...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferdimage:
Ok Unlocked-Mobile pre orders looks very promising, heres the email.

Regards

Unlocked Mobiles
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Thanks Ferdimage, I'll also mention this to Chris Love. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NickeMan:
Anyone know if Carphone Warehouse ships outside the UK (but inside the EU) ? Is their "handset only" version the 16 or the 8gb?

Leaning towards either CPW or unlocked-mobiles right now, assuming they'll ship to Finland...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Okay,

I've just received the first part message from Chris Love at Clove.

Here is his reply:-

Mike

We were told last week that the shipment would take place on the W/C 21st

Some distributors still believe they will get the shipment this week, but I think this is simply that the sales guys have not been updated.

I have a call in to Samsung to try and establish the exact date and whether any shipment will reach Carphone before the channel - I would be surprised

Lets await their reply later this morning.

Shipment delays on launch are always frustrating, but also very common.

However the more I see of the i9000 the more impressed I am!

Regards

Chris Love

I'm hearing the same from expansys benelux here, they say that it will be delivered to them tommorow. Damn, don't wanna get my hope up because I feel I'm gonna get disappointed again, but it's so tempting.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Okay,

We now have Part Two to Chris Love's message.

He's just heard back from Samsung and below is his message sent to me just a few minutes ago.

Mike,

I have just spoken to Samsung and they now do think they will get stock out later this week.

I have asked if all distribution will get stock (we have orders with all of them anyway!) and when the expect it actually to land in the warehouses.

They have confirmed that Carphone DO NOT yet have stock.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferdimage:
thanks Beards, now my email sounds more reassuring, thanks to Clove inquiring with Samsung...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nicolopolus:
Thanks for that Beards, tho I'm still gonna take Samsung's statement with a pinch of salt!

'Later this week' could mean we'll actually get the handsets end of the week/start of next. Certainly doesn't sound like any distributor will be getting it tomorrow anyway.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Yes, it does sound very promising for this week and also quells all those 'rumors' about Carphone Wharehouse ~ which I have been saying all along I did not believe in.

Chris Love had his call booked in with Samsung last week and I'd already passed the information on to him last Friday but the UnlockedMobiles info was an added bit of info to query on thanks. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TravUK:
I've given up trusting anyone on delivery dates now, although I'm quite calm about it all and have settled into a more patient waiting. The only one I'm gonna believe will the the delivery person when they hand me the form and say 'sign here'

Then the crazed feverishness can ensue once more :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] discophil:
I just spoke to Handtec support and they went to check on stock date but said hopefully they will have stock on wednesday. pinch of salt though i think but heres to wishfull thinking :)

"Samsung Galaxy S Due In Stock Today"

This is to advsie that the Samsung i9000 Galaxy S is due in stock today.

The Galaxy S will begin shipping from tomorrow at our market leading price.

this mail from unlocked-mobiles.com
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Never a more truer word spoken.

In total agreement with you. :)

This will be the first time I have actually believed in ANYTHING Handtec have said. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
If it were the beginning of April I would now be saying......
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NickeMan:
I got the same e-mail, I wonder how reliable this is...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
.............. Sorry, just couldn't resist. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NickeMan:
You mean they pulled this **** last week too?

God damn it :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferdimage:
unlocked-mobiles have sent a proper update to our pre order status, and not just a misc email advising the expected date, we have been given a shipping date and day... so it sounds more reassuring than other websites just updating their expected dates..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
I really want to believe this will be correct for you.... honestly I do.

Hopefully it will come as ....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hmj2k3:
This is too much :mad:

Any way, It seems Qatar is the first to receive this phone in the Middle East.

The phone is expected in Saudi arabia some time in July with Arabic support but no Market App. And it will be 16GB!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] reiteravi:
well chris just updated to week w/b 14
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferdimage:
Beard you wanna make another phone call to Clove and see whats up with this, its looking very official to what unlocked-mobiles had to say too...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Are you sure..... I don't think he's got round to doing it yet.

What link are you using?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
The date I'm seeing on the web site still says 21st.

As to unlocked-mobiles, yes, I did thank you for providing that snippet of information which I passed on to Chris.

If they get it this week then great... but at the moment Samsung have not 'officially' stated this, only it will happen sometime this week.

In the meantime until official it's staying as the W/C 21st June. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nicolopolus:
So he has! Looks like we may have them by the weekend!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vitalij:
Thats the link to Galaxy S with updated date on Clove:

Search for Samsung Galaxy S I9000 (16GB) (8GB Internal Memory + 8GB MicroSD card) and you'll see its delivery date updated to w/c 14.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Again, what link are you looking at.

The one here still says W/C 21 June.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferdimage:
http://www.clove.co.uk/viewProduct....8-7934-4DCF-8520-26B5BB58291B&Category=GROUP2

here mate!your the one advertising his website!

notice the 3 letters (NOW)

your mate is not really keeping you in the loop hehe
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Got it.....

It would seem we have two web offers up.

One here which is the 21 June

and the other here which is the 14 June.

Thanks. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nicolopolus:
Beards, dont use a link, just go straight to the website and check it. Defo says w/b 14th!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Thanks... just found it.

Sorry if it sounds as if I am advertising but I can HONESTLY tell you I do not advertise and it is against forum rules to do so.

All I do is go to print as I find and if someone wants any recommendations I'll post as I find.

I've known Clove though for nigh-on 20yrs and have never had one occasion to be weary or distrust them.

If things did change rest assured I would be the first to tell all. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MarvinTheAndroid:
This one says 14th June on Clove: http://www.clove.co.uk/viewProduct....Category=8F0A0B67-B393-4DAF-982F-CA3D13B595CB
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Cheers Nicolopolus, found it. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ferdimage:
well at least we can agree that this week is looking good for UK stocks ye?

happy and envious for you guys in the UK that will receive the phone within a day of shipping :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Affirmative...

This is good solid news. No rumor-mill, just plain simple facts.

I have to say I personally have been quite annoyed with most sellers and their stance on "lets see what we can pull out of the Magic Hat".

Carphone Wharehouse have been altering dates, In Stock, on Back Order, In/Out/In/Out shake it all about.

Handtec advertise selling the 16GB SIM free when we all know that model is solely going to carriers.

Unlocked-Mobiles ~ I've lost the plot with this one.... update me; apart from today, did they alter dates?

Clove ~ As far as I've seen, CLove have been honest in updating their web page as and when Samsung have released information.

Intitally 31 March followed by 7 June, then 14 June then 21 June and finally back to 14 June.

I'm going to be, so happy when this topic gets buried. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NickeMan:
You're not the only one who'll be happier for it :p

I do agree that this whole mess has been poorly handled by most resellers, but I suppose the idiots running them figure "If we have the most positive date estimate, we will get the most pre-orders, screw the customer!"
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Okay,

I got back to Chris Love at Clove re the confusion in dates showing on the two web page offers.

They have now altered the dates to both reflect the W/C 14 June.

Here & Here.

The second link is the one to go for as it gives a Free 8GB MicroSD card with the phone. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Got to go Guys.....

Due in theatre soon.

bbl. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ramsey:
YAY :D:D:D so most probably this week!!!!!! xD

haha finally!!!!

this deserves a YAY :D

even though I ordered from Handtec, I go to clove for the most reliable dates xD
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NickeMan:
So now I suppose the question is, does anyone have experience with unlocked-mobiles? Are they any good or should one try to avoid them?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hmj2k3:
Hmmmm, Guys I ordered from Handtec more than 11 days ago the 16GB version of the Galaxy S.

Since it seems that the 16GB is only sold by Vodafone, what does it mean then that Handtec sold me a 16GB version of the mobile ?!?!

Should I worry much !?!!?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ramsey:
contact them now and ask them, I don't think we can help you further, unless someone knows more but for your sake contact them because it seems 16gb sim-free may take time to be sold. It'll be much cheaper for you to cancel and buy the 8gb which you will get either this week or next week and to buy a 8gb microsd card with it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kirandeep:
i pre-ordered from mobiles.co.uk end of May, had an email stating tomorrow, but just called them and they are now saying end of this week, which probably means beginning of next week!!

what happens if my PAC code ends. which it will on the 23rd?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nicolopolus:
If it runs out I think you just request a new one?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NickeMan:
Well now I've placed my trust in Unlocked-mobiles, hopefully they will ship my device tomorrow =)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hashfoo:
Me too. I hope they are getting enough in to cover all these pre-orders! ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hmj2k3:
I had opened a support ticket with Handtec regarding the 16GB version and here is their reply :

Thanks for your email,

With regards to this we are still awaiting full confirmation of this however upon the release day we would contact you regarding this, you may wish to take an 8GB model with an 8GB card, or alternatively downgrade to a 8gb version?

Please advise,

Kind regards.

To be honest, I would be very annoyed if a 16GB won't be available !!!
