My findings so far...

1. I recorded a video on the phone and found the audio to be out of sync. Can someone else confirm this?

2. I'm getting way too many forced closures on just about anything if the phone has been on for an extended period of time

3. Sometimes the phone vibrates for no apparent reason - or when its taking too long to respond to an action

4. Signal appears to be quite flaky... not sure whether this is just a display thing

5. As mentioned before mobile access point doesn't work and it appears to be associated with USB tethering? This worked with JM2

6. I can't write to the external SD card from a PC. Writing to the internal card is fine though so my work around has been to copy file to the internal card and move to the external card from within the phone. Not ideal but works for now

7. Battery indicator is wrong! Gives on a false sense that there is sufficient juice in the phone when this may not be the case.

8. Ever since i started flashing and reflashing my phone there are two paid apps that i bought and i'm no longer able to reinstall. They are btunes and remote for itunes. When i search for them on appbrain i am able to see them but i'm not able to search for or download them from android market place - i have tried marketenabler app but i keep getting the "there's a problem houston" and nothing happens. Does this app require root access? I have not rooted yet.

9. after the phone has been on for a while, keyboard starts to get a bit laggy in showing up and sometimes leads to a forced close.

10. I don't find pictures taken by the phone that sharp - is this just my phone or are other people experiencing the same issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FrezoreR:
Another problem to report if not only reported:

The applications menu lags for me when turning pages back and forth. But the lag is somewhat irregular.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dipac:
Another one,

On the lock screen when you hold down the home and volume up key gets the phone into a weird upload page that you only get out of by removing battery from the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] miker71:
opposite of what I'm seeing right now -

current battery level - 64% (per status menu)

battery level in status bar looks almost full though.

time since last unplugged - 1d 1h 29m 41s

most I was comfortably getting from JG3/Eclair was 16 or so hours.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dereknas:
It seems that the battery level in the notification bar does not match that of the actual reported in the settings. Which is correct?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dipac:
The one under settings is right. Try to run down the battery to confirm.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] miker71:
The status bar battery display is definitely incorrect - currently it shows over half full when actual percentage remaining is 44%

Still, impressed with my current run without recharging.

The browser seems to be the cause of all my FC, bugs and lags on JP3. Not sure why stock AOSP browser is not good enough for Samsung :-/
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ryukent:
Problems I've had with jp3:

1. HTC_IME doesn't work.

2. Cannot select 2G only. Stuck with 3G all the time which canes the battery.

3. When you turn the volume down, there's no vibration mode like before. You can have vibration on with sound or with silent but there is no option to have total silent, just vibrate or normal. This was a really good feature.

Other than that, all seems good.

Of course I've got all the other problems too like haptic feedback stuck high etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sjdean:
Not seen it mentioned yet, but apologies if this is a duplication...

The "return" key when playing videos, doesn't return. You have to stop the video and use the screen based return key.

Rerware MyBackupPro seems to want to use /sd for backing up data. Nothing else is there though. ( full path is probably /mnt/internal_sd/sd )

--- edit - I can see the option in MyBackupPro - for the life of me though, I cannot understand why on FroYo it's decided to activate it.

Im confused.

In Messaging, there is also what appears to be a dark blue highlight. It's different to the light blue selection indication, appears to last for about two seconds, and doesn't appear anywhere else.

This thing has now got Bluetooth Voice Dialling, a bit hit and miss, but I could never get the original voice dialer to work. I also see a speech input icon for text boxes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] haiku:
Using desktop google search and then clicking on found contact returns black screen some strange vibrations and then message about android.process.acore stopped responding.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Marcolooij:
You should look around on the forum. Solution for wrong battery indication after flashing is mentioned a lot of times..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] schmittering:
Hi,

I'm quite new here so if i missed somethin I'm sorry.

I flashed to JP3.

The overall status seems ok. It fixes for me the GPS switch on and wlan access over web portal.

But now I'm missing a quite importand function. I have NO Ringtone. Sometimes it appears for less a second with vibration and then nothing.

I pressed the tone button and then I had a ringtone once.

So anyone has an idea?

I din't wipe my system.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chluk2425:
Clock Issue

Don't know whether someone had posted it or not.... Does anyone notice a clock lagging of the JP3? like, it slowed down by a few minutes per an hour... :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] digi69:
Trapster crashes constantly :mad:... which is annoying while driving.

I lost my entire sync with exchange today and had to re-enter all of the settings...

waiting for JP4 to be released...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] whopper2005:
The unlock screen is in english while the rest of my phone is in dutch.

Asphalt is gone from the samsung market.

Problems with installing games installing goes fine but when a game is try to update it says that i need at least 99MB to install the update...

Had a kernel panic.

Battery drains.

Internet browser crashed a lot, but after installing Adobe Flash Player 10.1_10.1.72.7.apk it seems to be fixed.

Grey tint instead of black when playing video's.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] peterlan:
I had it.. I tried to reflash but that didn't help. The funny bit was that during the night when the phone was on standby the clock was right. When I waked up and start to use the phone the clock begin to lag.

Had to flash 2.1 again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] balenax:
my clock lags too. tried to reflash after doing complete wipe, same issue. not lagging when charging though :).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chluk2425:
that's a big bug man :(:eek: i rely on the phone as my clock....

i've searched for clock sync program, but they all need rooted...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] waaahsabi:
they need root because android doesn't allow setting the time without it. I noticed the clock lag too this morning. clock was off by 15 minutes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dinfung:
anyone have problem installing game that need to download extra data? once the game loaded. it gave an error "an sd card with a t least 0mb free is required in ourder to download the new content" any have this problem? anyway to go around it?

some with me
[Desire General] 325i.:
I am now running the froyo ROM with A2SD+. As all my apps have installed via A2SD+, shall i keep it how it is or shall i move the apps to SD via the built in menu?

I want to use the method thats the quickest and used the least amount of internal phone memory.

thanks
[Desire General] 325i.:
Anyone???

thanks
[Desire General] djoni1980:
You also need to have your sd card partitioned

Do backup first, it will erase all data on your sd
[Desire General] 325i.:
Sorry, im not sure if i understand your comment. Are you saying its beter to use Froyo apps to SD or A2SD+?
[Nexus One General] rt7klz:

[Nexus One General] xXJay_RXx:
um it took me a while to understand you but have u tried to pull the battery?
[Nexus One General] EarthsiegeTA:
Try taking out the battery and letting it sit for a minute or two to fully reboot, then put the battery back in and try.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
I googled around for this but could not find any real solution to the problem, only contrived, bootleg fixes. I also seem to find that this is the general consensus that for most people android automatically starts playing music on bluetooth connection.

let me start off by saying I do NOT want to disable my AD2P connection in bluetooth settings. This is not an acceptable solution, since I WANT to use AD2P I just don't want music to instantly play everytime I connect.

Has anyone found a real solution to this? Beyond using tasker, or whatever other contrived solution? I can't believe that this setting was excluded in the system. I really hope there is a setting I am just missing, somewhere. If not, I suggest we escalate this to the development forum. :)

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk8882:
I've found this happens to me to. It is incredibly annoying if you want to use a program such as pandora for music, as when it connects to my car it starts playing through the music application on top of pandora.

Even aside from disabling the autoplay (which I think might not be auto-play, it might actually be the car/other device requesting an audio stream which defaults to playing from the music app), maybe there is just a way to disable the stock music app in some manner?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
I don't think it is the fault of the stock music app, because sometimes it's the stock app, and other times it's Meridian Player for me. I'm also starting to think that you're right - it might be the car / device pressing play as soon as it is connected. If the car / paired device is the culprit pressing play, it seems like the only solution would be to have our Evo automatically press stop. But if possible I'd really prefer not to have background tasks running at all times, taxing the battery / cpu.

Very annoying, in every BT device and paired device, it seems as though not much effort was put into coding the stacks. I'm sure they're only hurting themselves though, since inevitably something will replace BT. Unfortunately now we have to figure out how to deal with the inadequacies.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g12345:
I fixed this issue by using the autostarts app from the market, then disabling the music app autostart under after startup. It has not done this to me at all since then.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
Really? interesting. I am running Cyanogenmod 6 and there is no Music App, nor Meridian, nor anything else showing in the list. Also wouldn't that mean that this trick wouldn't work if you had opened the music app after starting your phone?

But a question - does it have to remain running in the background at all times in order to catch the bluetooth audio connected event?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk8882:
nice! got autostarts, I'll try it as I go to lunch.

I think the setting we're looking for is: "Media Button Pressed"

It had both Music and Pandora listed under mine and I just disabled Music. Maybe it will start pandora for me automatically too now, that would be awesome.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
Lemme know how it goes... even though I'm pretty begrudging about running a whole app in the background just to prevent something that should be a standard setting =/
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
Thinking about it now, I think tasker may be worth it anyways. It can replace the Gentle Alarm process I have running in the background anyways! as well as Keepscreen, could be a net savings actually.

So if anyone has specific information on how to get Tasker to suppress instant play on BT audio connect, instructions would be appreciated :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk8882:
When I first ran autostarts, the entry under "after startup" was already disabled... Have not used my car yet so will get back with whether it works as I want or not by disabling Music under "Media Button Pressed".

It appears that autostarts does not keep running in the background, but I could be wrong here. Autostarts mentions it can't kill things if they're already started themselves or if they change the settings again, then autostarts cannot check them and disable them again automatically.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
Never had this happen, and I use A2DP every day. Sounds to me like a problem with your headset, or better yet, are you using the call/play button on your headset to initiate the connection? Because that'll probably cause this.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
Pretty sure it does keep running because it has a feature to "keep suppressed" seems just like a task manager would do. :-(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
Yeah as above, probably is the device's fault not android. I do not press any play button on the car - I just connect but perhaps it is pressing play by itself. Stupid Ford :-)

Just curious what bluetooth device do you use?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk8882:
I have no idea where you see this "feature" listed. Maybe you have a different program installed. I have "Autostarts" by Michael Elsdorfer installed from the market.

It says:

"How does it work? Android allows applications to register for a variety of events supported by the system, to be started whenever such an event triggers.... [And in another section] I've disabled a component, but it sems to have it self enabled again after a while? Yes, applications may enable or disable their own components... Unfortunately, there is no workaround for this."

update on my testing:

1) I have a 2010Ford Fusion Hybrid (w/ nav). I found a setting to autoplay or not when the a2dp device connects (and when the BT device media function is selected). Therefore, I could have disabled the setting right there.

2) Using autostarts to disable the "Music" program from under "Media button pressed" stopped the media player from starting when I don't want it to. (I actually turned autoplay on my car back to enabled)

3) Pandora's listed under "Media button pressed", but it will only start playing if it's open already :(. Oh well, still more useful than before

4) There is still a fairly annoying/serious issue with BT pairing/A2DP, with Pandora at least, as sometimes after connecting and playing once and the car turning off/on -- It will not work again until I either enable/disable bluetooth manually or reboot the phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
I have a 2010 Ford Fusion too but I don't have the Navi/Hybrid on mine, I went cheap lol. You have an option for autoplay on your car?? How do you access that?

I only kept the app for a few hours but it was definitely the same app you are talking about. My memory isnt too clear on it but I was pretty sure for each item you could choose to either stop it at startup or keep it stopped - sorry I don't really remember the exact words they used.

Also, by disabling "media button pressed", that solves the problem of BT autostarting music, but what about if you actually want to use the controls, do they work then?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk8882:
I believe I tested with the startup disabled and the play/stop as well as track forward worked. I'll reconfirm that and post it back here for you later.

The settings for me for autostart in the Sync system were in media->BT device->something like "settings"->autostart (from the LCD). I do not know where you can find a tree for your sync commands. You may be able to change the same setting.

Also, about the autostarts program, here is what I see which makes me think it does not keep a background process running:

(showed text "Disable" where "Enable" is)

(help page1)

(help page 2)

Overall I think autostarts looks like it could be a very useful program, although I haven't found other uses for it yet :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
mk8882, Thanks a million for posting that!!! and now that you described where in the menu to go, I will give that a try. So if you disable autostart on the Car, you probably wouldn't even have to do anything on the phone, right?

I must be losing my mind, the program I used before was Startup Auditor, not Autostarts! I will check out Autostarts now that I know it's not what I used before, silly me. lol
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
I emailed the developer of Autostarts and he confirmed that it does NOT run in the background. It doesn't even run at startup - it directly disables the registrations for those events you choose. That is great... definitely going to keep this program.

Hi, I've been having the same annoyance with a Ford Mondeo with Sony DAB headunit. I haven't managed to find an option to disable the autostart on this, does anyone else know if it is possible on this unit ?
[Desire General] eXDee:
I've heard GSM Auto (PRL) in *#*#INFO#*#* will improve battery life.

But i have the Desire A8183 which is a 850mhz WCDMA handset, running on the Telecom XT Network, which is 850Mhz WCDMA only (2100mhz in cities too) with no GSM fallback.

This thread (xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=675136) shows many users getting greater battery life.

But then this thread's (xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=688492) explanation of why it works, seems to make me think it'll make zero difference for a WCDMA only network such as XT.

Can anyone advise?
[Desire General] cgrec92:
lol, i'm the one that found out and posted that fix ^^

it would make next to no difference in battery life so i wouldnt worry about it.

if your phone is WCDMA only then this means that you have no 2G network, basically meaning that you will always be on 3G, correct me if i'm wrong, so any way you do it you're always gonna get battery drain.
[Desire General] eXDee:
That's what I thought the case would be. What about setting it to wcdma only so it can ignore searching on gsm frequencies? Would this help battery?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nikoangelo:
Hi, I am not sure if this theme is not discussed already, but I just had a thought about useful dialer feature. It would be great to see a person that is calling additional information such as Company and/or Title. This feature is really needed and useful in business partners and clients because now you can see name and surname of person that is calling but no company information or job title.

Maybe there is any chance to make some tweek to original HTC HD2 dialer, or there is another dialer software that alows to do this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pedmond:
I would like that as well :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Iwarsson:
That is a great idea! It would be most useful.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] PsyChoFok:
Hi I'd also like to see that function and do any of you know of a way to change the sound of the dialer? I want to either make it silent when dialing a number or clicking sound. is that possible? Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] optiknerv:
Start/settings/personal/phone its in there.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nikoangelo:
so, has annybody a solution? and besides, is there a possibility of modding/tweeking HTC original dialer? Is there annyone working on that?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] WolfCodex:
I'd love that feature as well.

I'm getting a lot of work-related calls from many different people whose names I can't remember, so seeing company/title would be most useful.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] WolfCodex:
Does anyone have an idea how this feature could be added? (if that is possible at all, without it being "cooked" directly into ROM)

Thanks in advance.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nrfitchett4:
I'm guessing like the caller id mod that sammich did, if the dialer doesn't support the info, then it probably can't be done. Someone would have to create a dialer that would pull that info as well.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ccezar2004:
something like fulls screen caller on s60 3rd
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] afzalanwar:
The dialer skin is far more touch sensitive than it should be. I think some modifications should also been introduced.

I am not talking about a standalone dialer like iconsoft or iensoft but some tweaking of installed dialer. Is it possible?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ygvuhb:
is that the problem of the cpu?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Intratech:
Maybe because it's an unoptimised alpha testing build of the firmware? I mean, this has been answered like 1000 times already.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andybak:
Unlikely. It's probably because the JIT isn't currently switched on in the 2.2 alpha.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BackfireNL:
Could you please stop spamming the forum!

It is because of lack of optimisation! these are al beta firmwares! not official stable releases! wait until 2.2 really gets released for the Galaxy S before making statements!

Good question I'm curious of this myself

OP, you're an idiot. JP2 is an Alpha stage. It's not an official rom.

Moderator, could you delete this thread.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] reddv1:
What's wrong with you people? Don't you have anything else to do but harass people asking legitimate questions. The most unnecessary posts/spam I see on XDA are posts by people telling others not to post, its hypocritical! There are options available to flag posts that are not appropriate and then moderator can remove what they see fit, that there job not yours!

I've been looking for an answer for this question ever since froyo builds started leaking. Makes sense that it could be because the roms are alphas, but I also heard is it could be the snapdragon cpus are faster at calculations than the hummingbird CPU, I'm not talking about GPU which is hands down better on the hummingbird processor. I think our question will be answered when the new Nexus S is benchmarked and see how it compares.
