For info about the Voodoo lagfix, check out the bounty thread ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rdy2go:
Excellent release, very similar to 6. Improved gps?

Working so smooth I don't need lag fix at all. Lag problem is finally solved...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ebbhead:
Perhaps improved, but still crappy. See my post on previous page.

Open Odin

Add the voodoo file into the PDA part

Don't tick re-partition

No need for a .pit file

Attach phone in Download Mode

Start Flash

EDIT:

This is still BETA, you do this at your own risk, if u BRICK your phone IT IS YOUR FAULT!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] IntenZeD:
Anyone tried it with samset?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] shep211:
So we need a ext4 partition correct? Any size limit? Thanx for the link.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ferdimage:
Thanks for the beta link ;) is this ext4 fix means we have to have an ext4 partition on our external sd card?

The cas 3 Track i did it walking and with rain. The others track i did them driving in a heavily building area also with rain with the phone in the glove compartment , say if it is crappy.

With XWJM7 is even better but i have no tracks to post right know.

So i'm running a captivate i897 upgraded from store bought ucjf6 to ucjh3 with Desisegngears SRE v1.2.1a and Tayatama's lagfix4 v2.3.3

Everything seems to work ok, and i have a nive cloclwork/nandroid backup along with a titanium backup. I'm in the US on dreaded At+t.

Can and should I do this? I have read many forums now, upgraded my phone from stock to the latest firmware and applied 2 update.zips (sre and lagfix). This just sounds much more complicated than the usual double odin...... also, that repartition scares me..... don't i need that stuff?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bajica:
It is GT-I9000 only, and make sure u remove any lagfix u already have.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] quiron:
help

I think I missed the last chance to save these files. My phone ask me for an unlock code, and I can't get it. none of the procedures works :(

That means I brick my phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] azreil24:
I have an EFS backup made when i was using JG5. If, god forbid, I have any problems when downgrading from JPC, can I use that backup to solve the problems?

I flashed to JPC without problems, no IMEI change or anything, although I can`t enter the menu to change the CSC by using the *#272*HHMM# command. I don`t know why.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Richthofen:
Thats because the access code has been changed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Arkanius:
MOTHER OF GOD

The new Lagfixed Kernel is truly marvelous!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] azreil24:
That could be a reason :)

Thanks for the info.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] shep211:
I have it running on my captivate with I9000 rom but the fix is in the kernel so you will have a few bugs. I would not recommend trying this unless you know how to flash I9000 rom on the captivate.

Home Button functions as Back button.

Screen is rotated 90°. (Not a huge issue as there is a Notification button to disable rotate.)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ebbhead:
If you are happy with those results,

good for you

!

For me, it is not good enough, and I wouldn't call -> this <- part of your track for "no jumpinees or 'building driving'"..

I'm expecting more from my GPS since I've gotten so much better results with my Hero, and this is a newer phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cba1986:
Did you even read my post?

i was in the middle of a traffic jam surrounded by 20 floors buildings at night and with a electric storm with my phone in glove compartment.

if you watch closely that is the only part that my tracks jumps around, the rest of the rout is ok with the standard error but with no jumps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pharaohdk:
dont worry about it, some ppl just want to ***** and moan about stuff
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rui.mamede:
:D true story
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cba1986:
I don't worry. I'm vey happy with this phone.

I have been using this phone as a GPS with Ndrive 10 for a couple of weeks and never let me down.

I noticed that in my country Google maps has a little offset in certain street. So i exported the route as GPX and load it into mapsource:

See the difference. Perhaps we need another tool to measure GPS accuracy.

Another downside is that i cannot use 3G because this phone is european and Movistar Argentina uses the 850 band for 3G. :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ebbhead:
Sorry if I was unclear, I don't want to "just ***** and moan".

Yes, I did read your post, and as I said, if you are happy with your results, good for you. I'm not happy with MY results, so I'm hoping for an improvement in the future. Did you look at my track? Do you think that is a good result with the GPS on the dashboard, no 20 floor buildings and clear sunny sky?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cba1986:
No i don't. It seems strange that having the same FW we get so different results in almost equally conditions.

Thats all. I'm no interested in trolling or anything like that just aporting my two cents about the GPS issue.

Bye.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ebbhead:
Yeah it's very strange :\ .. well, good for you anyway. I'll just have to wait for Froyo. (tried the JPC, and my results with that FW was far better than this).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cba1986:
Hope your find a quick solution. :)

Bye

Installing Multi-CSC...

mps_dat value: TMN

copy_multi_carrier from: TMN

multicsc : can not acces to /system/csc/TMN/system/

copy_common_data

Thats the only problem, everything works fine...

If i type the code *#272*XXXX# no options apear...

The thing is i wanna lock my phone to TMN again...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Richthofen:
You can ignore the message.

TMN is not a Multi CSC.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] teriemer:
Stunning!

HOLY F#CK...!

This new fix is just SO fast - really incredible! Quadrants are not as good as with RyanZa Fix, but feel is 2-3 times normal speed - very impressive

Playing with it while writing this and even program/app's are starting up 2-4 times faster - blazing fast!

This will definitely be a very tough one for Froyo to beat!

Are running this with JM7. Oh btw, quadrants

1. 1686

2. 1560

3. 1821 (after reboot)

4. 1711

Absolutely PERFECT work - many thanks to Supercurio :D:D:D:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cba1986:
+1

Same configuation, plus autokiller set in agressive plus some tweaks with startup manager this FW flies.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] josåatt:
Thank you very much Richthofen. Had installed JPC but had problems rooting the phone and suddenly my sim card wasn't accepted by the phone. Was able to downgrade to JM7 and fix the nv.bak files with your guide.

Think I will wait for a official froyo release or one released by you until I flash the firmware again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bucklino:
Oh man!!!!! About wich " new lagfix" did u mean? The voodoo fix one, posted previously by bajica?

Repost from thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=771578&page=3

Hey Guys,

I have a GT-i9000 (Unlocked) and after a few firmware upgrades I have been noticing worse call receptions (more drops) and worse 3G data performance.

For example, I once had near perfect reception and few call drops along my drive home, now (5 firmwares later) I have been dropping calls like my old iPhone (actually worse) and what is more upsetting, yesterday my friends with their iPhones all had signal while I was getting the no service icon.

While i know the Captivate users can use the i9000 kernels (but swapping out the modem file) I wonder if anyone knows if I can use their Captivate modem file (JG8) instead of the one that comes with JM7 to fix my issues with reception and 3g performance .

What functionality will i lose? I travel to Germany often, will that cause issues with 1900Mhz and 2100Mhz bands ?

Is there any other reason that my signal would be so poor?? I really need help with this.....

:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ancient_One:
I'm in Australia and using the OPTUS firmware released last month but have dabbled with the European firmwares previously.

Was wondering other then installing JM7 is their a better CSC file for Australia other than the OPTUS JG1 or is it better to just flash the OXAJM1 CSC from the English language.

I'm on the Three/Vodafone network and the OPTUS CSC does nothing for me other then add OPTUS APP's I do not need and can not use.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dan 6a:
I also would like an au csc if there is one available, cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Roy Ngan:
Hi all,

I notice I cannot swype the name in my contact, I'm using XXJM1 CSC file.

I can do that on other firmware.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dakine:
This firmware plus the voodoo fix has been great so far, I'm done flashing until we get an official froyo update and a 2.2 voodoo kernel.

I hope samsung will get a clue and just switch to a better file system.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Roy Ngan:
2 issues happen on my phone

1. Duringa phone conversation, All buttons are disabled, including the end button, I can't end my call. Tried drag down the notification blind and end the call there, failed.

2. Sometime the keyboard will stay on top of input box (sms for example), which doesn't allow me to input any text, swype input I'm using.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] quitos:
Same for me, nearly incredible! !!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Roy Ngan:
Screen capture, can't see the text, and I can't input sometime
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Roy Ngan:
hi, how did you enable the tracking on Android or Google Maps? I would like to conduct the similar test
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] teriemer:
Yep - that's the one :D:D:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Roy Ngan:
5 screen capture within the same minute,

do you consider this as jumping too?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BronzedDroid:
Download MyTracks. It uses google map service, but can record and upload tracks. You can find it on market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Roy Ngan:
thanks, i wanna ensure ebbhead using the same software, so that we can compare the result.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kolemar:
Uh yeah... best combo yet.

The speed is simply amazing. This is the way the phone should have been out of the box..

Samsung..you better implement that ext4 fix in your software :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ebbhead:
Yes I used MyTracks, the phone was lying on the dashboard, it was a clear sky at noon and I was doing anything from 0km/h to ~160km/h.

The GPS coverage between our tests can of course differ because we are on different parts of the globe, but my reference is the results I get with my Hero and it's more solid than what I get with the Galaxy.

Happy testing!

JPC to JM7

I just checked "Phone EFS Clear" in Odin and it works (from JPC to JM7)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dan 6a:
Are you guys having good results with GPS just from JM7 alone? or other tweak?

I have been plagued with GPS problems, HK froyo,JM5 and JM6 was very promising, quite quick and now JM7 gets lock quickly but the accuracy is the worst I have ever seen, 500 metres.. :(

Any ideas on why this maybe happening?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kgk888:
Good to know. Been itching to try this one out now that I'm done playing around with JPC.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] toca79:
seem like my phone doesn't like this firmware.

I followed the procedure on the first post but my phone is stuck after the S logo with the backlights on.

I had JM3 italian official firmware + One click lag fix apk.

Any suggestion?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dutchcow:
I noticed more battery drain than with the JM1 (new). I don't know if this is due to the lag fix or the firmware. Will remove the lag fix and see if that helps. Overnight with JM1 and the one click lag fix my battery stayed full. Overnight with JM7 + voodoo my battery went down to 92% and dropping quickly as I'm using the phone now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] captive:
Maybe you have to remove "One click lag fix" to move all your data back to rfs before applying this new firmware
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] toca79:
A factory reset solved the problem. ;)

Now it works fine:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DagsJT:
Running JM7 with the kernel fix and the GPS is superb. Fired up "My Tracks" and it had me exactly where I was standing.

Battery does seem to be taking a bit of a hammering though, even with GPS off.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Finguz:
Thankyou very much, my product code is back :D Incidentally how difficult would it be to edit the 'nv' files and change the product code directly, or is this not possible?

I ask because my product code is GT-I9000HKDCPW ( bought unlocked through Mobiles.co.uk, which is owned by the crapphone whorehouse ) and Kies has always said my phone cannot be updated. The change to the KOR code with JPC was just more of the same.

Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kgk888:
Has anyone who went to JPC using ODIN had any problems with the .nv_data.bak and .nv_data.bak.md5 files?

I downgraded per the OP instruction and checked the dates on mine and they're way back in mid-July. Did the .nv_data.bak and .nv_data.bak.md5 files only fudge for those that used Kies?

And I'm talking about regular unlocked Galaxy S phone users. Not Vibrant/Captivate/Canada9000mwhatever

Also, if my .nv_data.bak and .nv_data.bak.md5 files are earlier than Aug 26, why do I need to delete the .bin and .md5 files at all? Just curious. They are dated to today and not yesterday (when I flashed JPC).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dutchcow:
I have the same. Bought the phone sim free directly from CPW, did not expect them to change the product code, but they did.

Anyways, it is possible to change by using a hex editor on the file and then generate a new md5, but I would advice against that. Just use the register and change your product code. I think XEU is the generic Europe product code.

I did see that but couldnt tell if the notification bar was transparent or not.

[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] CrazyKnight122:
Yeah i flashed it and its nice and looks great, But i still want something with a completely transparent bar.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] es0tericcha0s:
Tried that the first run, and it looked great when using LP+ and having the status bar hidden. When you would hit the notification button, it would pop down and you would only see the icons/letters/numbers etc, but otherwise it just shows up as a blank-black area. Something to do with that space is allotted

for the status bar and you don't really get it back, just because it's transparent. There might be a way around it, but not really sure yet. If you wanna try it, this was the first run of Transparent Chaos:

[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] johnnyboy1549:
Yeah I've been looking for the same thing for a few weeks. They can't do it on the eris yet though because of something with rosie and it not taking the background all the way up to the top so it would always look black anyway.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] ma42091:
I think it's LP+ that doesn't allow the transparency because it just shows black behind the bar. I've heard that it works with ADW Launcher because of an option it has, I haven't tried it though because I prefer LP.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] es0tericcha0s:
I'm pretty sure that's not it. I just tried it, and got the same results as LP+.

Stupid question, but how do you know when you are getting a 4G signal?

Does the "3G" in the status bar change to "4G"?
[EVO 4G General] stangdriverdoug:
Select menu, next select settings, then select wireless and networks. Check the option to turn on 4g, then select manage 4g settings. Select notify me when 4g is available. That will set the phone to constantly scan for 4g.when it picks up 4g there will be a notification on the top status bar.then it should automatically connect and show a 4g icon up top.
