[Nexus One Android Development] octify:
I don't know a whole lot about android, but it being a linux type solution can't we just stop the device from booting or loading at start up? This is an issue that plagues the eris and is currently bricking mine basicly because its so bad I can't use it. A flashable fix would be bueno for this devs +1
[Nexus One Android Development] span_01:
I've made a custom kernel hack off of FlyKernel-12a for Hero to solve this issue for me. I'm sure it can be done in a similar way on the N1.

I changed a list in the board-hero-keypad.c from:

static uint32_t hero_y_axis_gpios[] = {

HERO_GPIO_JOGBALL_UP_0, HERO_GPIO_JOGBALL_DOWN_0

};

to

static uint32_t hero_y_axis_gpios[] = {

/*HERO_GPIO_JOGBALL_UP_0,*/ HERO_GPIO_JOGBALL_DOWN_0

};

and thus making it never scroll up since that is what my problem was.

Android is not a j2me or a java platform. You develop in java but the bytecode is compiled in dalvik assembler code. For a reference to the api see here

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mrfil13:
Hi,

Just got the Galaxy S, im on orange and im finding that the phone is going straight to VM even with full signal, this seems to happen about 80% of the time, i get a message straight after saying i have a missed call. It seems to be worse when its in my pocket, i had a similar issue with my nokia 5800 but not as bad, i just thought it was the phone getting old.

I have a new sim but same number etc.

Anyone else having similar issues?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sammy555:
I had the exact same thing on mt old i8910hd on orange.I put it down to the fact the phone had a few knocks but who knows? Hasnt happened once on galaxy s with vodafone
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TravUK:
Also on Vodafone, not encountered this problem yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Darkstriker:
You may have to consider that this is a problem with your provider. In the netherlands, tmobile had an issue with this due to an overloaded network. Since you live in london I guess that would be a likely reason (tmobile mainly had issues in crowded areas). My suggestion is to try and disable your 3G connection and see if that makes a difference. Here people couldn't receive calls when their 3G was on but when they turned it off, the problems seemed to disappear.

If this works for you, you may want to contact your operator. The sounds to me like it isn't a device related issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mrfil13:
Thanks for the reply, stepping down to 2g did seem to help, i have found some other posts on other forums, one forum suggests that orange are aware of the issue, lets just hope they resolve it soon.

[Desire General] PandaKiller:
All we hear that Froyo had ad-hoc connection but I can't connect to my Notebook.

Someone knows how to solve the problem?
[Desire General] Daelyn:
As a Ad-hoc "server", yes. But as a ad-hoc client we don't.

You can always get hold of the ifconfig/iwconfig binaries and reload the module though. Then you get full access and make it authenticate with another ad-hoc device.

It was what I thought.

Thanks anyway.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] dazcox5181:
I have a 32b Voda Magic (UK)

Have had it rooted etc since I got it, never had an issue before.

Use the Crios 1.22.2004 SPL and the 26I radio.

For some dumb reason thought I'd try the 2.22.23.02 radio, flashed it and now the phone reboots seconds after the data connection comes up.

Have tried going back to 26I but no luck.

With no sim in or no data connection phone seems to work.

Any ideas how I can save my Magic??? (thankfully my Nexus turns up later)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sandandrocks:
Hi,

I need your suggestions. I have a T Mobile MDA Vario IV whose digitizer has given up on me. It basically doesnt register the correct input and sometimes it doesnt register anything at all. I have tried all the possible software tricks on it, to no avail.

The phone gave up on me after the first time I installed WM6.5 from NRG.

I cant replace the hardware as it is not available locally in Riyadh and any other way would be too expensive.

So now, I still want to make use of this phone which I used for hardly 3 months. Any suggestions other than using to assault HTC engineers.

I was dicking around with paint.net and found a cool little tutorial on how to make graffiti style graphics, made myself a few wallpapers and got a bit carried away so I thought I might as well share them if anyones interested.......

They're all 480x800 and if anyone wants anything in particular then just ask and I'll try and sort one out for you.......... if you want it on a different background then just attach that as well.........

If you want to make your own then the tutorial can be found here..... and some cool fonts can be found here.........

I don't think that's right. On the HTC website FAQ's, it says that Vcards are to be found in the Contacts section of your phone book so it must already be able to do this. But I can't find mine.
[Desire General] th3:
This is an old, well known problem: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2412

There are suggestions there, however, I usually just import vCards saved on the SD card from my other phones since that works. SMS vCard doesn't seem to be recognized by Android.

-----------------------------------

- Sent via my HTC Desire -
[Desire General] th3:
When they are recognized and imported correctly, the vCards are saved and can be viewed like other contacts in the Peoples app. Before you can do that, it will ask you where to save the vCard contact, to the Phone or a Google account you've added.

ADB Tutorial

ADB Tutorial

Many tutorials, fixes and mods are written assuming a basic knowledge of ADB. ADB is a command-line tool that is part of the Android Software Development Kit (a.k.a. Android SDK or ADK). This tutorial is aimed at getting you acquainted with the basic functions/workings of the ADB tool.

(Note: I do not currently use/have Linux installed. For now, this tutorial will be Windows-only. However, I suspect Linux users are versed in command-lines already and do not need a tutorial like this to open adb)

Requirements:

-Android Software Development Kit (you do not need to run "SDK Setup.exe" to use ADB!)

-Rooted Samsung Galaxy S

-Busybox (installed from market and updated!)

Basic Setup:

In order to use ADB you will first need to decompress the Android SDK. For simplicity, decompress the folder "android-sdk-windows" into the root of one of your partitions. (I am using the root folder of my D: partition for the purpose of this tutorial)

You now need to start the Windows Command-Line tool "cmd". This differs per Windows version:

XP: Go to the start menu and click "Run", type "cmd.exe" and confirm with "Run"

Windows Vista/7: Go to the start menu, type "cmd.exe" and hit enter.

You will now see a command-prompt open (I erased my username):

As stated before, my "android-sdk-windows" folder is located on my D: partition. You will now need to navigate to the "platform-tools" subfolder of the "android-sdk-windows" folder:

Before we go any further we will now have to complete some steps on our phone:

-Make sure the phone is rooted (find the application "Superuser Permission")/has the latest version of busybox installed (Run "BusyBox installer" and make sure it says, that the latest version is installed). If not, root your phone according to the HOWTO in Post#2 and install busybox from the market (and follow the instructions in the description) respectively.

-Put your phone in USB debugging mode: "Settings"->"Applications"->"Development" and check "USB debugging"

-Close all other applications on your phone and go back to the TouchWiz Launcher Home Screen

-Connect the phone to your PC

Now, we are ready to run ADB:

I hope this helps all those who were clueless so far on all the adb-based tutorials for fixes etc.

Firmware and LagFix Selection Guide

Last Updated: April 3, 2010. Up-to-date as of April 3, 2011 15:53 CEST

As you may have noticed, there are a lot of firmwares on samfirmware.com and it's not very clear which ones are best/least buggy etc.

In this section, I will give a general guide to which firmware to use depending on your preferences:

If you like the stock Samsung Galaxy S experience and are looking for the most stable/bugfree version:

-Flash I9000ZSJPK or I9000XWJS8 according to HOWTO#1.

-Install the one of the kernels below or one of the lagfixes from FAQ#A6.

If you would like have the latest firmware and are willing to tolerate some bugs (this is beta firmware):

-Flash I9000XWJVK according to HOWTO#1.

For a list of current custom ROMs, see this thread

Lagfixes and Kernels:

In FAQ#A6 the currently used methods for lagfixes are described. There are a number of enhanced kernels (most of which use at least one of the lagfixes) that add features such as more accessible RAM, enhanced compiling, Clockwork Recovery, Blacklight Notification and several various features depending on the Kernel. Here is a list of the popular, well tested, optimized kernels (Note: Some of them include an overclock):

-hardcore's speedmod Froyo

-laststufo's Super Optimized Kernel

-supercurio's Voodoo Lagfix

-DamianGto's Ultimate Kernel

-tegrak's lagfix build Kernel

There is a frequently updated list here

General Note:

If you want to take the modding further, look at FAQ#D2 in Post#1 for a list of Custom ROMs and chose one you like. Depending on whether or not there is a lagfix integrated, you should then apply one of the lagfixes from the first suggestion. I would also suggest avoiding loop-mount fixes like OCLF and CFLF (see FAQ#A6) because performance rapidly declines over time.

Note: None of the available ROMs completely fix the poor GPS. Most of the ROMs noted above are provide roughly the same GPS performance. Samsung is hoping to release a full GPS fix in september (hopefully with the froyo release) It is not clear if or when Samsung will release a full fix for the GPS issues. However, it is doubtful since there are now many indications that the issue is in fact hardware related and even the final Froyo release doesn't completely fix the GPS.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] efbenson:
For us coming from HTC devices if we hose the recovery partition is there a way to recover the phone. It was HBOOT (FastBoot) in the HTCs. Does ODIN provide the ultimate "debricking" feature. I realize there are ways to brick that are unrecoverable, but if I hose the recovery and I am done I will be very hands off on modding.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] FrezoreR:
Great! I've acctually been waiting for a thread like this!

In Sweden one operator(Tele2) seems to have issues with the device not switching to 3G even when available. Does anybody else have these issues with their operators?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Darkstriker:
Did you check your APN settings? Did you contact the provider concerning the issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Akerfeldt:
In the Flash Firmware using Odin guide didn't you forget to add "SIM unlocked phone" as a requirement?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Darkstriker:
I know it says so in the guide but I recall having read that SIM-locked phones can be flashed as well. Don't quote me on that!

Added it as a requirement for now.

Edit: I did read it here. However, it seems that those phones aren't actually SIM-locked, so for now, SIM-Unlocked is definitely a requirement.

Thanks for pointing it out! =)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] FrezoreR:
The APN settings should be fine, the phone works on both 2G, 3G and HSPDA, but when it at some point have switched to 2G it will stay in 2G and you would have to manually set it to 3G.

Yeah we are a group on a Swedish android forum where someone have contacted both samsung and tele2 about the problem. But if not anyone here has the same problem it surely must be tied to the operator, which is what I have thought all along.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Darkstriker:
I'm sorry efbenson, I seem to completely have missed your post.

I'm not sure how this works on HTC android devices since I have only had a Windows-mobile version. What seems to be the equivalent of the features you are "describing" is the download-mode (VolDown+Home+Power) which can be reached even after interrupted firmware-flashed (experienced it myself. Still scary as hell!)

However, I don't think I'm fully qualified to answer your question. Maybe you could reformulate it, since it's not very clear right now.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tyxerakias:
This definitely deserves a sticky, thanks for this DS
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Darkstriker:
I haven't had such problems and I dont remember reading anything of the kind so far so this likely is an issue with your provider. Maybe you can check if this occurs everywhere or only in specific areas (like cities) or something like that.

Hi guys, just got my Galaxy S running JF3, trying to flash it to JM2. I've followed the instructions precisely, used the 512 pit file and correctly added the firmware tar files into Odin and ticked the Re-partition box. I've put the phone into download mode, clicked start, but Odin just gives the following output and does nothing (the phone doesn't show a blue progress bar either).

Yes, Kies is installed, not running, drivers are installed correctly.

<ID:0/008> Added!!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] penfold:
i'm trying to flash on someone else windows 7 64 bit machine, installed the drivers etc, connected to odin, it started, then the text out stopped on factoryfs.rfs, the yellow progress bar is moving very very slowly, benn about 45 minutes and it's only about 30% of the way into the box .....

if it keeps going at that rate it might take 3 hours, and the battery will most likely die.

any ideas?? should i just yank it out and try again later or leave it to keep going?

----------------------

well the flash finished after about 2.5 hours and said passed!

upon rebooting the phone is stuck at the black screen with the galaxy s logo.

should i try the same firmware again (XWJM2)? with re-partitioning this time.

the only thing that works is i can boot into download mode.

i can't even tell if the battery is charging when i plug it in now

*solved below*
[Galaxy S I9000 General] penfold:
i did indeed reflash with the same firmware again with the re-partition checked this time and it worked perfectly in about 6 minutes, all fine again.

i also disabled the antivirus on the laptop before flashing just in case it was interfering, and i think i should have done a factory reset before the first flash
