Problems with JP8 (FROYO)

These are the problems I faced with JP8 (Froyo) :

1. Hangs (had to take out battery to restart)

2. Lags, few apps like Media Scanning and Gallery are fast but others lag a lot.

3. Messaging buggy

- Messaging does not open or read messages after a restore (I used excellent utility

called SMS backup and Restore).

- Lost all my messages suddenly without any reason. Now I dont have any messages

which i received in last nearly 24 hrs.

- It gets hang usually after pressing back button.

- In the message thread numbers are shown incorrect.

4. WiFi unstable. Will get an error (or go to sleep mode) and disconnects at random. Has

to reconnect.

5. Gmail app's new header is ugly although app is improved.

6. Gtalk earlier version was better in look and this one in functionality. Mix the two for better

results Samsung.

7. GPS still buggy.

8. Battery performance is still poor.

9. Size of the apps is always calculated (or shown) incorrectly. I never knew Documents To

Go 3 is of 0 size and ES File Explorer is of 16kb ;-)

10. Settings revert to default for no apparent reason. Infact this same bug has been

experienced in Eclair firmwares also where Driving Mode in TTS will keep getting to

default.

11. Can't come out of Video Player by hitting hardware back button. Can only be done through soft back button in Video player.

FROYO is not ready yet for Galaxy Apollo. There's a lot of work and optimisations to be done Samsung. Make sure that your customers remain loyal to you and can recommend your product/s, and, we believe you. Good Luck !

Going back to K1 :(

youtube flas problem

Hi are you able to play youtube videos when you try to open from the explorer i try to play them but it gives me a error we are sorry. .... And the youtube app does not open the video. I only can watch the videos directly from the app installed. Please help i have froyo in my i5800 but i think it is another bug. Did you installed flash player?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Btw guys, do u flash with SIM and Memory card or without it ? Is there any harm if we do it with them ? Like SDCard getting corrupted or phone getting stuck ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mobile9999:
So far, the problems i faced

- SMS identity issue, the identity mix up when inside the messaging thread

- Wi-Fi disconnects more frequently

- Media scanning a few times

- APN entry gone after flashing

Usable version, only sms issue more irritating. Overall, seems to be running faster but not that significant compared to 2.1 .

Flashed with SIM card and SD card inside. Contacts in SIM remains intact, but i don't have any message/data to restore.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pvinodchowdary:
i dont think its a good idea of flashing this leaked rom...its quiet unstable n hell of bugs in it...id rather wait for the official upadte ...atlest itd be optimised n stable
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:
Flashed mine with sim and sd card installed, havnt had any problems yet!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] god_md5:
Rex4u and Hazski

in setup>about phone>status>signal strength

and Rex4u in JK1 the CSC ver is JK1 or JH1

i show is 0dBM 0asu

and i know the ODIN

PDA is zimage

PHONE is factoryfs.rfs

CSC is modem.bin or cache.rfs?

maybe can flash repack JK1 modem.bin cache.rfs with JP8 zimage AND factoryfs.rfs?

and app2sd can not show the real size is a know bug ,other phone is same..

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Garret:
Last night I stayed about 5 hours online ( Wifi ) and had no problems!

I also have almost NO problems at all, it's SUPER FAST, battery is great and displays the % accurately now, messaging is fine! It's a european phone mind you..I had to flash to XWJG6 firmware first though in order to be able to install the FROYO firmware! ^^

Overall, I'm very happy!!

JP8 (FROYO) Experience on I5801

Previous firmware version: 2.1 DDJG6 (India)

1.Factory reset

2.Flashed to JP6 smoothly via odin

Device rebooted but stuck on samsung logo flashing with periodic vibrations

3.Factory reset again.

Device booted successfully.

4.Installed z4root from market via wifi.

5.Device rooted successfully after 3-4 min

Testing results after two days.

-FASTer!

-Laggy a bit at times.

-Wifi switch is buggy (sometimes when wifi toggle switch on home screen show enabled, it might be disabled in internal settings.)

-Wifi sleep policy settings not working properly. leads to unstable wifi connection at times.

-Unable to play videos with xvid/divx codec. Only 3gp & mp4( codec mp4a,mp4v)

-Video performance was a bit choppy with mp4 encapsulation, bit rate: 500Kbps CBR resolution: 320x200, Audio:128Kbps LC-AAC or CBR.Not even x264 encoded videos which are supported by the hardware.

-Proximity sensor works improperly on call screen. Once the screen is turned of by near proximity it doesn't turns on automaticaly when the sensor is opened again. Condition can be replicated by "Android Sensor Data" app but works properly with "z-Device Test" app available in the market for free.

-3G Data connection not working tried with BSNL( APN: bsnlnet, APN type: Internet, everything else: Default)

-On an incoming call volume rocker is unable to silent the ringer.

-Haven't tried to send group message.

-Notification alert doesn't redirect to the linked handler on taping the message in the bar.

-Battery performance was fine. on standby with no work, droped to 90 from 100

after 8hrs. Used heavily with wifi, gps, bluetooth on at the same time for 2.5hrs. Nominal use (call made/received only). Overall battery sustained for 18 hrs.

Further testing going on.

I have installed froyo since 20h and i have just a small problem with the phone numbers. The numbers ar like dis 07 - 456 - 876 but not all the numbers and sms has a problem because i send a sms all ok when i click the sms sometimes just is showing me a nother name. The gsp problem is still here.

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] abhi0n0nakul:
i do not have many probs with the froyo:

only the wifi problem.....

regarding the, i never used teh stock sms app neither in eclair nor would be using in froyo..

handcent is best......... so i dont care..

@rex.......... the back button prob in video may not be a problem.....

coz back button is now provided in the screen itself thats why...

and i think its better now i can hold teh phone with ease without fearing that if i touvh the back button video would stop.......

i think its improved for me...

i am really happy with this fw...

atleast samsung provided it.... and would be releasing it officially..

look at sony ericsson .... their flagship x10 has now recieved just 2.1

and sammy is giving this cheap phone a 2.2..

many phone do not have 2.2 yet...officially

those that have unofficial hacked rom , there 's something not working(eg. being camera in x10)

and i think samsung is way way better than sony in phone update support.......

though may not be better than nokia or htc.....

acc. to me its very usable and i recommend it to flash......

this is the first time i am not regretting buying a galaxy 3....

i regretted buying nexus one not due to update support but due to battery..

i charged my nexus 1 2 times a day..

and my galaxy 3 lasts for about 2,3 days . no other android phone lasts this much... all htc phones battery are crap........

and regarding smoothness and all.. even nexus one with 2.2 is not very smooth/fast.. its the cyanogen mod that makes it better and fast...

i guess we should get a cyanogen mod rom or modaco rom 2.2 for this galaxy 3..

to make full use of this..

galaxy s cpu overclocked to 1.6 ghz

this i hope can get upto 1ghz..( moto droid from 600 to 1.2 )

samsung and moto are very known for processors and they supply it to apple also...

left is ram... it does not matter that much.. coz eclair used only 200 mb ram at most inspite of 512mb in nexus.. its the jit compiler in 2.2 that makes full use.. ( so sped 4-5x)

so when nexus and all others work great with 2.1 ., 200 mb ram...

its 256 is good with froyo.......

cheers samsung

@vija

I hate no one or nothing but care about phones of my friends here. I was sad earlier also when I heard that K1 had bricked few phones. What if they don't get able to get it repaired by Samsung ? There are many people(including myself) who can't afford another phone in a span of few months :(

@nakul

I lost my messages in Handcent only.

Fault is not with the batteries but Android's architecture. To make best use of RAM and faster loading time it compromises with the most important thing - battery :(

Samsung is late in providing this upgrade. They are trying to compete with HTC and Moto but their software support is not comparable. HTC launched Froyo way back. Sony is not any race(Galaxy S has already sold millions handsets) otherwise they would have released X10 with Eclair itself. Isn't it ?

Galaxy 3 is not a cheap phone at Rs.12000+. You are now getting Blackberries from Rs.13000. Samsung has to do far more than current status. Many small improvements are required in their software. Having said that if you would ask me that will I recommend Samsung phones , my answer would be ANYTIME :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] zavisa:
How do i disable stock sms app?

handcent works, but there is stock too..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rcoliveira:
Only problem is the proximity sensor to're not working right during a call.

The rest I'm happy, working WIFI, GPS OK, OK 3g and 2g
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] militarualex:
What you had did that the gsp to work? No sms error?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] nastyba:
I agree

I am also using Handcent SMS, but because I have to with this beta 2.2

The rest is working fine. I made root with one click with "z4root" and then I with "move2sd enabler" now I can move ANYTHING to SD card, which means free storage for system apps.

Everything works fine now. I just haven't tested GPS yet, but Wifi and 3g is working fine.

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] abhi0n0nakul:
yo can just urn the notification under settings of stock sms app..

and be it there..

select the handcent as default for everything(the best thing in android, to toggle defaults)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] abhi0n0nakul:
use widget locker as lockscreen, the best lock app i have seen..

has the locks of sense ui as well as iphone, stock slider and many....

its just great and highly customizable.....
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rcoliveira:
I did not send sms to a group, I send sms to multiple people individually and're working.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] abhi0n0nakul:
and the progress of samsung is indicated clearly by the fact that the next google nexus is from samsung...

now google ditched htc........

this clearly explains now google moved to samsung......

so in future samsung phones would be having fastest android updates..

coz how fast android update occurs depends on the manufacturer's relations with the google co.

firstly nexus one and s would recieve and then other cose co. like samsung and htc...

then moto and forget about sony ericsson...lol
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] JoHnNy08PL:
Hmm... our CPU is at 45nm, that theoretically means better OC than a eg. Spica(65nm)

BTW You guys have the same problem at this 2.2 - when I block the screen and left phone idle for... eg. 10mins and when I come back and try to wake it up, it takes 10sec. Sometime faster, sometime longer... It looks like at SetCPU and 83MHz :P
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Karanfiloff:
Want to go froyo but havng problem connecting my phone with odin how do I solve this? It says phones not connected :(
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] militarualex:
Where i can find the notification under settings ? (I have the some problem with sms)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Vodkuccio:
After 2 days of testing got this :

- sms "works", but got some bugs when receiving an sms, the reply option try to sends the sms to another person (lol), freezing on the "sending...".

- wifi goes to sleep randomyl, getting errors that requires a reboot sometimes to be fixed

- to turn on the screen from sleep the phone request more taps to turn on the screen, dunno if it is a change or a bug

- proximity sensor didn't turn on the screen during a call , back button should be pressed

After all some nice addition, the system is more reactive, luckily i don't really need intensive wifi actually, and i fixed sms with handcent.

If not, i would have downgraded.

Gonna wait till the official release now, hope it comes out asap, let's see if this beta got some other issues.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Karanfiloff:
cache failed stuck on Samsung logo while updating to Froyo, can somebody help me :(?

My WIFI sleep every time!!!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
reflash I5800XXJP8. if this wont solve the problem, flash I5800XWJG6 and then reflash I5800XXJP8.

TIP: ALWAYS FACTORY RESET THE PHONE BEFORE AND AFTER THE FLASHING!!!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] abhi0n0nakul:
go to sms app click menu button then settings , and turn off notification......

and it wont trouble you....

work with handcent...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] zavisa:
Stock sms replaced with handcent sms and works...

No more problems, froyo seems to work

After lot of attempts I ain't gonna say how many, I have my dignity you know! :) I successfully upgraded to 2.2 and it's looking neat, fast, despite some minor problems it's staying on my Galaxy until the official release.

@kyrillos13 thank you pal for the reply, I added I5800XXJI2 cache.rfs and datafs.rfs to the I5800XXJP8.tar using IZArc4.1.2 program and it went through. cheers m8

i hav galaxy i5801

i rooted the phone few weeks back and today upgraded it to android 2.2 froyo.

but after upgradin it i hav lost my imei number and also wen i open

"MY FILES" > "APPLICATIONS"......then when i hit back button the section turns blank and shows no file available.............

then suddenly a message appears that the folder encountered a problem and needs to be forced closed.

what is this problem.

and will degrading the phone to 2.1 bring back my imei number...??

and during upgrading the phone asked me to reboot or open file update.zip etc.

which we have to select with volume keys while rooting the phone.

so i opted for rebooting.

after rebooting the phone was upgraded and there were above mentioned problems.

NOTE: i did not unroot the phone before upgrading it

and can i again install android 2.2 froyo on 2.2....before degrading it ...?

please answer my queries

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] shajumohamed:
Is there a way to recover the imei number if I lose it during flashing?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] haree:
hi

IMIE no is uniq to ur phone if u loose it i dont think u can get it back

and now it has become an offense in india to use phones without imie no

so if ur operator does not see ur no he will disconnect ur phone and u need to go to them pay some amount and get it done i do remember some of my friend with china mobiles doing the same

so pls be careful:D

thanks

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] shajumohamed:
I want froyo on the phone and samsung india replies that they have no plans to update this phone (at least not in india). I can't lose the imei as well.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] shubhashish:
everybody who is worried about loosing imei refer to

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9292536&postcount=1196

basically you need to backup /efs to backup original imei nefore you try flashing. to save apn you need to save customer.xml.

also samsung india keeps mentioning on twitter that all galxy phones will get froyo.

refer http://twitter.com/Samsung_Mobiles/status/25300601025#
