[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] armanatz:
Hey guys,

I am new to this forum and I have been following the Galaxy S development scene quite closely for a month now. I don't know if this is the right place to post this but mods, feel free to move the thread if necessary.

I personally have been using some of the Roms and applications here and I wanted to give back to the developers in a way that I could. Therefore I am setting up this thread in order to allow forumers to show their appreciation and to also gather the developers' donation links so that whoever, just like me, is compelled to show their support to these guys can do so under one thread.

I would like all the devs and anyone involved in the Galaxy S Android scene to come on to this thread and post a link to either their Paypal accounts or some other way that we can use to donate and I will compile them here.

Others can come over here and just post a personal thank you to the devs.

I think that a little bit of appreciation is a big incentive for the devs to actually go ahead and continue supporting the scene, making the Galaxy S the best Android phone out there! They might be nice enough for releasing their work for free but that doesn't mean we can't help them out a little bit. After all, that is the whole foundation that community-supported open source OSs are built on.

So let's give back!

EDIT: I wanted to start posting up the links to the donate pages of all of the devs that post here but I can't due to forum restrictions. I would appreciate it if a moderator would do that for me ;) Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BackfireNL:
Well thank you :)

If somebody want's to buy me a beer they can do it here!

I'm just a poor student so this could help me get a social life :P:P

Topic says it all...

Admin decision?

Virussed:eek: or just illegal:rolleyes:?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] krzyzag:
I wanted to ask same question - thread disappeared overnight. I made comment about strange Airplay error in one of the games, hoping for an answer and next morning it was gone…
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Airborne Aircrew:
One would think that, were it infected with any malware, the Mods would leave the thread in place with a warning and close it...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] **[bimmer]**:
Let's hope they do that, because it works like a charm for me :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Gandalf67:
I'm afraid they won't do that. Why? - it's simple - Dubai's phone's distributor suddenly realised, there are more downloads then phones were sold. Probably that's why main download link shared on xda, doesn't already work (made a copy :)). NFS shift is the best quality game I had ever seen on WinMo OS. So, probably EA forced them to cut promotion or change form of distribution.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
I think the mods deleted the thread, because the link doesn't provide *free* programs anymore.

Since the offer provided through that link/company was valid till Friday, any links to it now (and later) would be referring to warez...

And we all know this forum's opinion about warez :rolleyes::)

So they probably closed the forum to avoid any future problems/claims :)

Grtz,

Degake

edit: As Gandalf67 said: I also think that the company would have thought "have we sold THAT much HD2s???" :D And that they probably use another link to access the downloads...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] seferon33:
If need i had full all 3games can upload to rapid or other sites for downloading all games working fine for me.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kurt-willems:
In case of; my friend have send me his previous folder of he games.

Here you have the linkM0d Edit- Link removed, warez
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
I'm curious as to when the mods will come to action in this thread :rolleyes:

I think they'll see this new links to rapidshare/mega-upload etc. warez, since the software isn't available for free anymore...

Grtz,

Degake
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kurt-willems:
I contacted the Moderators to ask if it was in confusion with there rules. In case of I will removed it.

Personally I don't see the problem; and if my memory is okay I tough thy removed previous thread because the link didn't function anymore.

But if I'm wrong I will correct me.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] James82mc:
Thanks :cool:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Veldmuus:
thanks :D cuz they did not accept mine IMEI last week
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sleeping_apocalypse:
I am bit struggling to install nfs on my HD2. It always shows a message "memory running low". I copied it on my sd card but dont know how to run it. I have 2GB card. Any suggestions :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] wacky.banana:
Chaps,

Just been made aware of this thread. The others were removed because they essentially were warez.

Going onto the original site and obtaining the software direct is fine, provided you qualify for the download via their checks/procedures. Posting the links elsewhere for free access when these games are in fact not free is warez. Hope this quickly explains what's going on.

Please do not post any direct links to the software not direct links to the company as that constitutes advertising for a 3rd party which is against the rules.

Thanks

WB
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kurt-willems:
Thanks

Thanks wacky.banana fore the clarification.

And My apologize to Moderators and users, fore my fold/action!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] killerice254:
so is the stuff illegal to have i mean how they gonna know cuz torrents are downloaded all the time and not many people get caught
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
It's illegal to obtain this download, unless you have an HD2 that was purchased in that specific region (Dubai, AE).

It's true that not many people who download pirated stuff or warez get caught, but XDA has always been under close investigation by a lot of parties (e.g. Microsoft).

So XDA can't afford to be affiliated with warez in any way.... or they could get some troubles with the law :rolleyes:

Grtz,

Hi

Is there a method to keep HD2 keypad light On (all the time) while screen is ON and turn it off while in standby?

Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Umyd:
I second that.

Anybody? I've been lookin for such a fix for a long time now.

Specially when I read in my bed and the lights are off i wish for a solution that would keep the lights on for easy navigation.

Thanx in advance ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Sichroteph:
Could be in theory possible with the latest cyanogen builds.

You can specify your buttons luminosity (0-255), depending on your light sensor (dark room for example) !

But it doesn't work with me (hastarin 7.6), maybe with another kernel?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fuorionda:
please anyone have a solution?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] solid.snake:
Yeah !!!

I'm also still looking for à method or a trick to keep my hd2 keypad on as well as the screen remain on...

Please, share, find à solution... tanks.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Sichroteph:
Did you tried cm 6.1 ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fuorionda:
Yes, I'm using CM6.1 but I dont'know how to solve.

Can you help me?

thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Sichroteph:
Check into cyanogen mod settings, where you can set the screen luminosity depending on the light sensor. On the second column you can set too the buttons backlight. try it and please report if it works. It didn't for me two weeks ago, could be a cm6.1 nighty bug, or our kernel that doesn't recognize well the demand.

Else I was thinking about the xda developer that made blinker, maybe you can ask him for a app that so that, could be very ready for him to do.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rokson:
+1

Someone have solution?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MacPad:
I have tried with CM6.1 RC2 and Hastarin 8.5.1, still no joy with the cm6 keypad led settings....

+1 For a solution from me as well...

Is there anyway to switch them on from the console?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] madmaxxx81:
anyone got an answer?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] luxubu_dang:
I'm not sure but you can try MDJ kernel s7 with new lights driver. The lights only go off when you press the power button. I hope that what you are thinking of
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] johnmarkantonakis:
still no solution???
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] de_Rech:
Hello,

you can turn on your keypad liegt by write 1-255 ind this file "/sys/class/button-backlight/brightness" on your android-device. if you write 0 the light will be off.

The problem ist that the system change after 10 seconds the count to 0.

I like to write an android app which helps that the keypad light stay on.

I havn't much experience in programming an android app. Can anybody tell me how i edit a file?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jjmai:
Anyone know which ROM supports this feature nowadays? Thanks
[Kyocera Zio M6000] SnakeFist:
First and foremost i want to thank esk02k and his friend for the images. All Credit goes to him for the images check out his post on xda called the thc weed leaf (i would post the link to his page but it wont let me says out side links are not allowed by new users but yet its an internal link). I didnt use all of them as there was only 37 images that i had to replace and i couldnt find the file that links to the boot up animation png files to add in the extra files so i used most of them and all i did was make it to the right size and converted them from jpg to png.

I am using the stock rom and my phone is rooted using universal androot version 1.6.2 beta5 (search for 1-click root for N1 to find this it will work on this phone) you have to install super user then you need root explorer found in the market. Now on to how to install this.

1) Install universal androot and the root explorer run universal androot to get your phone rooted you may chose soft root which only lets you temporary root till you reboot (dont worry it will not void your warrenty)

2) Download kyocera zio m6000.zip at the bottom of this post and extract it to a folder on your pc

3) Copy the folder to the root of your sd card

4) Open up root explorer and click on /data/FLEX/bootanimation

5) Copy Startup_Sound_M6000.ogg from the folder you copied to your sd card to the /data/FLEX/bootanimation folder overwriting the one in there

6) Next goto /data/FLEX/bootanimation/assets folder and copy all the png files from the folder you copied to your sd card to the assets folder over writing the ones in there

7) Exit out of root explorer and reboot your phone to see your new boot up screen and enjoy the first mod for this phone. (Note im not sure why the android screen dont show up no more when none of the files that was replaced was the android png files only the cricket png files are replaced)

Well there you have it the very first mod for this phone i hope you all like it as this is my first attempt at making a boot up screen animation im not sure how to make it animate more so please give constructive critisim do not bash it please and please tell esk02k thank you for all the hard work he did with the images all i made was the start up sound and resized the images and converted them to png to work on this phone so in all it only took me bout 7 hours his work was a ton harder and probably took him days maybe weeks. So major props to esk02k

**edit** Wow i started this by making the first mod for the phone and showed you all where to replace the stuff and got the ball rolling and not one thank you. Wow it shows me how much im appreiated here.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] muttd:
Everytime I try to copy the files, it says I do not have enough space. What do I need to get rid of?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] SnakeFist:
Remove some unwanted apps or apps that came on the stock rom that are worthless to you i removed the demo games that the company put on it and that gave me enough free space you need 6.50 mega bytes free to use this i made it as small as i could with out making it look like crap. you can remove some of the apps from /data/app i would recomend to back up the files before u delete them in case u have to put them back.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] AJOwens:
I have tried to copy the new pngs to the assets folder, but every time. I do, the original files replace the new ones. The closest I got was when I rebooted and I saw the first png of the original cricket boot animation, then it skipped all but the very last one of the new png I attempted to install.

Can anybody help me?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Fitnessbuff1975:
I am a new user of Kyocera Zio M6000. I also want to install the boot up screen for it. You describe the installation process clearly. Thank you for it.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] gregnotcraig:
Apparently, the same number of images as the original must be used?

I tried one of my own, using boot screen found elsewhere on XDA that had more images. Didn't work.

Going to play around w/ the images today, reduce the count to the same as the original and see if that's indeed the case.

Or maybe it was the size of the images. I dunno yet.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LithGFX:
Doesn't do a thing to my Cricket Zio.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] aago1254:
hey i figure since your so gutsy can you get me a recovery rom my phone is crashed and cant find crap online
[Kyocera Zio M6000] hightech316:
We need a good solid backup rom, any post?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
If your phone is a brick check the other zip threads for the update and you'll be on your way to a working phone
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jMyles:
Zip threads?

Where can I find these zip threads?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
ZIO threads. Like the 2.2 in the development section
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jMyles:
Zip threads

Well, the 2.2 thread appears to refer to the windows downloader, with which I have two problems:

1) I don't run windows but linux, and

2) To do this, it appears I need to get into USB debug mode. I'm stuck in fastboot.

What I think I really need is the stock ROM from the Sanyo Zio. Does somebody here have this?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
I can see if I can use adb to pull the 2.2 rom and if I have any luck I will let you know
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jMyles:
Thanks

I'd really appreciate it.

You can email me too - justin at justinholmes.com
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
You may want to see if you can use a windows machine to update. I think you can do a virtualbox but I'm not 100%
[Kyocera Zio M6000] beatadalhagen:
I'm wondering if ReactOS is far enough along to run the updater. Will have to give it a try, liveCD.

No go. Booted the live CD, couldn't access any of the media devices to access the update tool.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jMyles:
Hmm

but listen, I can't get the phone into USB debug mode, so how can I run the updater? At the moment I'm stuck with fastboot. Normal boot is black screen, no response of any kind, no adb.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
Turn the phone off, hold volume up down and power and your phone will bopt into modem download mode. Then update.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
Umm wrong thread.

Try the android 2.2 thread. Lot's more helpful info there friend :-)

[Galaxy S I9000 General] tupique:
I finally managed to upgrade SGS firmware through Kies because I found a solution on how to connect Kies to Samsung Galaxy S. The solution is quite long though, but the end result is worth it. I now can connect Kies to SGS successfully all the time.

I live in Indonesia, bought the phone from a gadgets store. The phone is unlocked/sim free/unbranded.

The original firmware code (dial *#1234#):

PDA: I9000DXJF4

Phone: Unknown <-- what the ??

CSC: I9000OLBJF4

And this is what I've done:

Downloading and installing Kies from Australia instead of Indonesia. The version number is higher 1.5.1.10083. The important 64-bit drivers already included. Installed smoothly on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, but had driver problem in Windows Vista Home 32-bit. I don't bother to try to reinstall Kies in Vista again though, so I don't know if this version is really not working in Vista 32-bit. UPDATE: This version is working in Vista 32-bit and Win7 64-bit!

Press/dial *#272*HhMm# (Hh and Mm is hour and minute in 24H format, 2 digits) then select the code from the list equal to "Sales Code" at the top, which is XSE (Indonesia), and press Install. Warning, this step will erase the internal SD card. Make backup first if you must.

After the installation from step two is completed, the phone will reboot itself. To make sure that everything is still working (no more downloaded Applications or Contacts though, everything was wiped out), I did reboot the phone once again. The phone works normally. But my phone type was still "Unknown" at this point.

Without changing any setting in the phone and Kies, I connect the USB to the phone, Kies fired up automatically, and voila! My phone was detected, and Kies also gave me a notification that a new firmware is available (I9000DXJG4). So, I downloaded and applied the firmware.

New firmware installed successfully. Works better and faster/smoother than DXJF4. GPS is much better now. Love it. Dial *#1234# gives me this now:

PDA: I9000DXJG4

Phone: I9000DXJG4 <-- yay!

CSC: I9000OLBJG4

In this firmware, Samsung also includes an application/widget called "Task Manager", which is pretty much like those "Task Killer" apps in the market.

And now, The Buts!

YouTube (APK) is not working. In JF4 it worked well.

Android Market now can't download every item I selected, but it can show the list normally. I did login successfully using my Google account.

Samsung Kies detected the phone but now giving me this warning "The SIM card is not inserted, can continue communication". The SIM card is inside the phone!

Samsung Kies really gives me a headache, literally. Old problems fixed, new problems arise. Anyone knows how to solve that three problems? Please?

Or, should I redo the *#272*HhMm# procedure once again after installing the new firmware?

:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tupique:
Did some experiment and it was a success.

So, I did a Factory Reset. All caches and some data are gone, but all downloaded applications and contacts are still intact. YouTube (APK) is now working and I can access Android Market again. The big downside: My phone type is back to "Unknown"!

Next, I dialed *#272*HhMm# again, let the phone reboot and setting up itself. And voila! The phone type is back to normal again "I9000DXJG4".

YouTube app and Android Market is still working normally. I haven't try to connect the phone to Kies though.

I read somewhere in xda-developer forum that after upgrading (and downgrading maybe?) the phone firmware you need to do a Factory Reset first, so you need to backup your data before upgrading/downgrading.

I think that's the answer of my question above. And dialing *#272... completes the whole process in my case.

My impression of JG4? It's fast and responsive. It's a great piece of firmware. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tupique:
KIES recognize Galaxy S without problem!

Well, the fix I've listed above work very, very well!

Kies now will recognize the phone correctly. And I can make backup of my contacts or upgrading the firmware through Kies.

I'm very happy with Samsung Galaxy S and Kies now! :D :D :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ryanadiputra:
awright. gotta try this trick :))

hello fellow indonesian :))
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tupique:
Hello there! :D

I have written the guide above in this website: http://lintascafe.com/2010/09/14/ulasan-samsung-galaxy-s-part-2/
[Galaxy S I9000 General] anonymusneo:
were u able to use 3 button combo after that?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Taomyn:
My fix

Whenever my SGS is no longer seen by Kies (Win7 x64):

Close Kies and the tray icon

Stop Kies mode on the phone

Disconnect phone

Connect phone

Put phone in Kies mode

Wait for Win7 to settle

Go into Windows Device Manager

Delete the phone from "Mobile Devices" (you may even see it with an "!" icon which is what put me onto this method)

Stop Kies mode on the phone

Disconnect phone

Run Kies

Connect phone

Put phone in Kies mode

Windows then re-detects the phone and after a short while so does Kies.

Hasn't failed yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tupique:
Lucky for me, the 3 button combo problem is not an issue for my hardware. Before I finally "found" those steps above, I once used a 3 button combo step to fix KIES problem as said in this forum or other forum, I forgot.

The 3 button combo problem is related to defective hardware rather than firmware I guess.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tupique:
From my experience, whenever KIES can't detect my SGS, it also means that the IMEI number in my SGS is gone and listed as Unknown. KIES needs IMEI number to be present.

The source of my IMEI problem is quite surprising: the One Click Lag Fix. Whenever OCLF is activated, IMEI number is listed as Unknown, and KIES can't find the phone, and vice versa.

However, I'm quite sure that my problem with OCLF and the missing IMEI number is not a common problem, because there were no reports about this in XDA forums.

Hi all

I am using HTC diamond P3700 currently with windows mobile 6.5 installed, but now i would like to experience Android on my phone, and I am going to install the following version

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=780130

I noticed that I have to create an Ext2 partition on my HTC internal memory first, and it requires gParted which is under Linux platform. Since I am using Windows 7, so I used VirtualBox to create a virtual environment to install Ubuntu.

Now, i am facing the problem that my gParted doesnt detect the connected HTC diamond.

Could anyone please kindly instruct me to solve this problem?

Besides, the ext2 partition tutorial is in some language which is not english, so could anyone please write a quick english tutorial?

Many many thanks in advance!!
