Small UPDATE

I've found that Samsung pushed a firmware update via KIES to NEE (Sweden) product code, which is dated from 14th of April 2011. However it is available through KIES since one day.

I've updated my manual HERE and list of product code updates HERE and added I5500NEEJP3 firmware to both postings.

GT-I5500YKANEE (SWEDEN)

Older firmware version: I5500XWJPB/I5500NEEJP1/I5500XWJP3/I5500XWJPB

Current firmware version: I5500XWJPJ/I5500NEEJP3/I5500XWJP3/I5500XWJPJ

Current firmware build date: 2011-04-14

I see that some of you are maintaining a translated version of this small HOWTO, so please, spread the knowledge and update your translation with newly added info !

@CPUpgrade Updates are slowly coming for all the I5500 phones, so do not worry. Just switch to NEE version using Odin. When FroYo gets pushed for the KIES users, just switch back to XEU version from THIS LINK and then update with KIES.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Marcell96:
@chillvisio so there will be a official update in netherlands soon?

and how can i know when the update is available?
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] :
If you did not flashed your phone with another firmware via Odin you should just check KIES periodically for updates.

If you've already flashed your phone with something like NEE version, you already have fully functional FroYo on your phone that will not be way different than the version that will one day be available for NL phones.

If you are still using original firmware for your phone, please volunteer and share with us your product code, PHONE/CSC/PDA versions, so I could check for KIES updates and update the above manuals with working firmware for NL product codes, as I really have no working PHONE/CSC/PDA for NL i550 and every such code will be very helpful for extending the firmware archive.

Thank you in advance !

Compass in official Froyo

Does the compass works ok in any of the oficial Froyo updates?
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Marcell96:
@chillvisio Thnx, I have flashed my device but is't a long time ago and i didn't done it well i think,

because its very slow and wifi sometimes dont work.

so i can't check for new versions and dont have the NEE version (i guess? what is NEE?)

in dutch ''nee'' meens ''no'' :P
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] :
@Marcell96 : Nope, GT-I5500YKANEE is the Swedish product code, but it supports Nederlands :) And here it is http://www.multiupload.com/05LXO7ABH4

@cagh : Not really. However the compass was not so precise even when it worked in 2.1. To be sincere when I put an iPhone, I5500 with 2.1 and a real compass one to each other - the compass outperforms all the other "compasses" :) Next is the iPhone, it shows almost what the analogue compass shows and the least precise is the I5500. I don't know how fixable this is, and when I need a compass, I get a real compass :)

FroYo is more advanced comparing to Éclair. It has wifi internet connection sharing, built-in task manager, voice search and better email client, not to tell about the optimised battery usage. I've used Sygic Mobile Maps 10 during a 6h trip, listened to FM radio and MP3, used the internet and got back home with 17% of battery power. If it was with Éclair the battery would got easily and completely discharged long before I was back home. I am talking about the European FroYo, not the Latin America version (I5500L).

is there any info regarding custom roms or custom kernel for galaxy 5 ???

so we can overclock or get better performance for this phone....

thanks,
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Marcell96:
@chillvisio and if i flash my device to the ''NEE'' version....

does it goes faster than? and when the official update comes, can i just install it via kies?

and where are the other files? i mean when i download it i only get a ''BOOT'' file (.tar)

where are the others, or can i do the flash with only that file?

(sorry, for so many questions by the way :D)
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] :
If you've already flashed your phone with version that was downloaded from samfirmware or with Motafoca version your phone should give you this error message when trying to update via KIES.

If you never updated it with version not for your product code, everything is ok, just stick with KIES updates and wait a bit until FroYo is available for your product ;)
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Marcell96:
ok but how can i know when the official update is avaiable? are there any websites or something?
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] tyunkata:
Any idea about official Froyo for Bulgarian one? 10x in advance
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] :
You could just connect the phone with your computer and check periodically with KIES.

No FroYo ROM is available for the VVT product code yet. You could try flashing Romanian ROM from HERE (it has Bulgarian language too) and when official Bulgarian FroYo ROM becomes available, just switch back to VVT ROM from the same link and update with KIES. I don't know the reason for Samsung delaying the FroYo for Bulgarian market. Maybe there are not too many devices sold there and this is not in their high priority list.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Marcell96:
but i cant because of the flash, when i do that i get the error :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] ratcheto:
I have contacted with Samsung support asking for official froyo 2.2 and they said me that there is not release date for this version in some countries from Europe, in any case they didn't tell me it is not be expected.

Other smartphones were delayed for a new Android update up to 6-12 months, so I guess if it is not released before summer then there will be few chances for that.

WIND mobile Italy goes FroYo on Samsung Galaxy Europa : GT-I5500YKAWIN

Visitors of this board are one of the first who could download it at : http://www.multiupload.com/TDDGXBC9XT and upload it with Odin if they've already messed their KIES updates by uploading a ROM that is not for the WIN product code.

More info on how to get rid of "This device can't be updated" KIES message could be found at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13081474&postcount=2189

Edit: with a little bit more searching I solved the pproblem for my self.

But I do now know a little bit more about how samsung firmware changes work.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] tweakradje:
Tethering with the i5500...

Just found that the i5500 (with 2.0.9.2 ROM) has both USB and Wifi tethering.

When USB tethering is switched on RNDIS driver from the Samsung driver pack (SAMSUNG Android USB Remote NDIS Network Device from the 16_Shrewsbury folder) is required.

Now you have a USB network device that can be used on your laptop for both Wifi or UMTS data connections to internet.

With Wifi tethering your i5500 becomes a Wifi access point for other devices that can use it's UMTS data connection to internet (WPA2 supported)

I used Any Cut for creating the shortcut and in the Zeam launcher.db database the shortcut is listed as:

#Intentcomponent=com.android.settings/.TetherSettings;end

Could it be true that Denmark and Sweden uses the same firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] azlemad:
Hi guys.

I have just bought a Galaxy 5 each for my bf and I.

I'm new to this android stuff but would like to have a go at installing 2.2. (On mine first of course and if all goes well I will install on his also =)

Can someone please tell me which firmware would be best to use? (and where I can get it if not from that samfirmware website)

They are I5503T Telstra Australia phones.

The version page says

PDA: I5503TAJJI3

PHONE: I5503TJJI2

CSC: U5503TTLPJI1

Thanks! =)

edit: well I did it on mine, with USA version, so far so good! thanks for all the info in this thread, very helpful

upgraded to 2.2 europa

I have updated my Galaxy 5 (GT-i5503) to Froyo 2.2 Europa latest version from Samfirmware.com

File: I5500XWJPL_ITVJP3_XWJP3 | 1 April |

GPS, wifi, bluetooth all working nice

Compass problem was solved using motafoca compass fix

flash compass fix using odin with one package option and same ops while flashing froyo firmware > auto reboot

done

no problem in phone

battery backup is also good as 2.1 eclair

little bit slow when installing program as compared to 2.1

better than motafoca and other froyo version

Okay guys, a bit of trouble here on my G5. I have an i5503T (Telstra branded) and I have flashed all different firmwares of all different flavours onto it. NO firmware that I have installed has worked with my GPS!

I have tried all the optimizations that I had installed on my vanilla Telstra 2.1 firmware (Which the GPS worked perfectly with, getting a fix in under 10 seconds indoors) and I cannot get the GPS to work, it just never gets a fix, even after hours and hours in the GPS Test app!

So I want to reflash my original Telstra Mobile branded 2.1 firmware, I am unsure of the uild or whatever, but does anyone have a copy of it (it is not on samfirmware.com) and how do I flash it? Odin?

Thanks guys.

News!! ^^​

Cyanogen 7.1.0RC0 (based on Gingerbread 2.3.4_r1)

Current version: galaxy5-test2.96 - 11/May/2011

Recommended version: galaxy5-test2.96 - 11/May/2011

Hey folks,

I'm starting a new thread on my Gingerbread build to help me keep better track of releases (as I can't edit the first post in the existing topic). I'll keep a changelog in this first post, along with the latest news and links. When Motafoca resumes his development, we can merge the topics again, or keep them separate if we decide to maintain separate builds. Either way, we'll share the source for anyone to hack

Special thanks to Motafoca* for all the "help" given by constantly interrupting me during development...

WARNING!

* READ THE NOTES BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS OR USING THIS ROM. Information is always updated in this post, and I'll kick your a** if you ask a question that's already answered.

* This is alpha-quality software, and some functions are still not available compared to the Froyo builds!

VERSIONS MARKED WITH RED TEXT HAVE REGRESSIONS - READ THE NOTES BEFORE USING THEM!

Release list/changelog:

* test2.96 - 11/May/2011 - updated Cyanogen source; fixed WiFi signal & mac address; improved boot scripts; phone will now power off/restart faster (and will also no longer crash during these periods); phone seems to stay cooler (possible battery savings); screenshots may now work again (please test).

Instructions:

1. Flash .tar file in Odin with One Package option.

2. When recovery boots, do data/cache wipe.

Working:

* GPS

* 3G

* Sensors

* Brightness controls

* Video

* Audio (recording and playback)

* Touchscreen (no multitouch, don't ask because I'm not working on it)

* Root

* Camera (and video recorder)

Partially working:

* WiFi [1]

* Telephony [2]

* Bluetooth [3]

Not working/unknown:

* Radio

* MAD Team EXT4 app2sd [4]

Errata:

[1] WiFi functions properly (signal and mac address), but it can be slow to connect in DHCP mode. It also does not automatically reconnect when returning from idle.

[2a] When you first boot the phone, if you receive a call and try to answer with the hardware keys, your phone will reboot. You can clear this bug by making an outgoing call after you first turn on the phone. The bug will not return until you turn off your phone. If you receive an incoming call but you forgot to clear the bug, answering with the touchscreen controls will not cause a reboot.

[2b] When in a call, the microphone at your ear will be activated instead of the microphone at your mouth. The other caller may have problems with call quality because of this.

[3] The Bluetooth device is active and basic tethering seems to work, but not all Bluetooth functions (file transfer, headsets) have yet been tested.

[4] I won't add MAD Team app2sd support until this rom is stable. This should only be used for testing and not regular use, so I don't want to encourage people to use it so heavily. You can still use Cyanogen's built-in "Move to SD" function - it's more advanced than Froyo.

Cheers mate. It's a shame I flashed mine. I wanted to go "official" but little 'ole NZ is unloved and I can't find the original firmware for it, so I get the dreaded "can't update" message from Kies.

Oh well, I'll keep trawling and maybe I'll get lucky :) It's not that bigger deal though. The phone is working great (apart from random freezes rarely and the compass thing) so I'm not missing anything (I don't think). Just thought it would be nice to be "official" again since they've given us 2.2
