hi what bout the charging notification when the phones is on do you get that. i can not get that when my phone charges full and when its off it shows 100 % need help bro
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] tgunator:
Ok, finally with K1 ROM, battery life has been 84h with APN ON.

Great!

And one important think: baterry percentage decrease gradually, and not like before (50% to 10% in 1-2h).
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] xenixas:
so you first resetet phone with 100% battery, then you flash with k1 with I2 data.rfs file in it? then you reset your phone again and it's ok?

how do you reset what combination?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pvinodchowdary:
this thread is dying...no froyo news...no custom roms......
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] maciekph:
It's dying because there is no custom ROM yet.

Cyanogenmod will be done for Samsung S, probably not for Samsung I5800.

Anyway it's good to have at least root. :p
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Mr.Gamer:
texting you from samsung assistance italy...let's hope the re-flash won't take much

UPDATE about bricked phone:

So, i left the phone at samsung reporting that i've flashed it with Kies and it never booted back

After 1hr the tecnician comes out and says they can't get it to boot again either so probably gonna swap it with another one (or flash it with UART probably ?), but it will take time.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] tgunator:
- Charge battery with phone powered off

- Hard reset throught recovery menu

- Flash K1 firmware with H2 data.rfs (yes, i was wrong on previous post, sorry)

- Factory reset throught security menu inside android system

And battery, for me, works perfect know.

ODIN

I have a problem, i used odin to upgrade my firmware (JH2), now want to upgrade again to (JK1) but odin will not see my phone is plugged in!! keeps saying please connect phones, anyone have any ideas???
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Thanks for keeping us updated. Plz test it with nearly 50 apps newly installed and 10 running at the same time.

Also battery drain with wifi on, gps on.

Thanks and good luck :)

JK1

JK1, seems to be working fine. i upgraded from JI2. battery is significantly better. i'm running tweetdeck with 15 mins update intrevals, gmail too and it lasted for around 2 days. also spoke for like an hour during that time.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Hmmm...........

Happy to hear your experience :)

Could you plz share the exact steps you took for flashing K1 firmware ?

Thanks............
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rcoliveira:
This firmware "Fixed I5800XXJI2 Firmware (in memory problems)" has been customized? What does he have different to others?

It's worth it to upgrade or to I5800XXJK1?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] breaker1919:
at First i had a few problems with JK1. i upgraded from DDJG6 without inserting datarfs etc. but had serious issues. so i flashed JI2 and then immediately flashed it to JK1. that's about it after that the only problem i had was with barcode scanner, i was slightly worried but turns out there was something wron with the app, i updated it and everythings fine. i dont think we need to insert datarfs because, JK1 i think is meant to be like an OTA update, when i flshed it the first time, all my apps etc wer still there on the phone.

oh one question, my boot logo says i5800, im assuming that if i flashed DDjg6 now it'll revert to I5801?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] coolzarjun:

Hello

I just got my apollo like 2 weeks ago. It's a good phone, the only things that suck about it are the gps and battery life.

So i've decided to root my phone, using the instructions in this thread. It worked fine.

But now i'm trying to update my firmware using the software in the opening post, and I did all the steps in the screenshot. But still the software keeps saying "connect phones". What am I doing wrong?

Thanx
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] petervranek:
Can I please download your custom rom with app2sd ? Which bugs does it have ? Thx, I'm from europe too
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rcoliveira:
Thanx

You need to type in your phone * # 7284 #, this will open the phoneUtil and there on the choice of USB modem.

After that ODIN recognize your phone.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] masterchief456:
Ok. Now Odin is updating my phone.

But now it's on <1> setup connection... for like 10 minutes now. That isn't normal I guess?

My pc and the program are still responding. But i'm afraid to shut it off while it's still in progress.

Did I do something wrong?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] divinesahil:
i regret to inform you that it wont it will be i5800 only even i am trying to fix it all i could do till now is change samsung logo so far but not the i5800 and by far do you get the full charge notification when phones on. Do let me know plz cause mine does not notify anything like that even if it gets 100 % charge in off mode ie phones off and yes i agree with you the battery back is better been 24 hrs + with live wall papers and wifi and calls just 40 % drained so far. And if you find any solution for notification problem do let me know
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rcoliveira:
You need to turn off your phone, and with it off you must press the following keys:

VOL UP + HOME + POWER ON

It will open a screen to and you plug the phone into the computer and makes the START of ODIN.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] masterchief456:
Ok. It's busy now. Thank you very much for your advice! I'm kinda new to the android-world ...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Vannon:
Hi, actually I can't start flashing in Odin too T.T

I already did it twice (JI2 and JI2 fixed) on my i5801 (Now I have the i5800 logo while the phone's booting, but it doesn't bother me).

And now Odin won't recognize my phone.

I put on modem usb in phone util, I rebooted in download mode, but it doesn't change anithing at all.

In fact it's just for the pleasure of the update to JK1, so it's not high priority =) But it's unforgivable that my phone resisting me ^^
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] masterchief456:
Hi

after succesfully rooting my phone, I'm now trying to fix the GPS problem. However, I can't find the gps optimisation program on the android market.

So i want to try this method:

GPS FIX:

I5800 has many trouble with gps fix. To solve this just change NTP server in gps.conf located in system/etc. The simple way to do this is using FasterFix that you can download here: url

Attention Root is required!

Change NTP depending on your location. For a full list of NTP server visit url.

But I don't get how to do it. Where is this system/etc file? I don't seem to find it anywhere on the phone...

Can anyone help?

Thanx

Hi guys, just bought a brazilian I5800L (Claro branded but not sim locked). What is different from the I5800 on this phone?

Before rooting, i want to upgrade it to a retail firmware because brazilian models seem to have a lock against rooting.

My actual firmware is I5800LVIJG7, can i upgrade it to any European one without problems?

Thanks for any help.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] petervranek:

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] breaker1919:
yeah. i'm getting the notifications. as for the logo hopefully it will change when froyo comes along. so has anyone tried downgrading from JK1?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] vijacdblz:
hey rex is it really necessary to hard reset after flashing jk1,
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Not necessary but intelligent to do so.

Yes, I Swyped it from my Galaxy 3
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Once again I flashed K1 and this time I am impressed with battery performance. 4hrs on wifi and just 30% drop is amazing compared to previous firmwares.

Android Market is also much improved on it with suggestions and "did you mean" thing.

Speed is also better.

Somehow it seems that it is sensitive to flashing and can give different results to people.

I thank all those who constantly kept posting their finding and experiences on it and especially tgunator who was persistent. Thank you guys.....

Yes, I Swyped it from my Galaxy 3
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] tgunator:
It's a pleasure tu contribute in this forum:p

Battery performance boosted X3.

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gusthy:
Currently Darktremor a2sd doesn't work "as is", since it requires ext2 file system support from kernel, and i5800 kernel doesn't support it.

I am planning to compile a new kernel today evening, and I will see if it works.

There will remain a problem:

- If the kernel will be ok, AND a2sd will be installed, you must format your sd card with an ext2 partition on it. It is easy on Android phones which can run Amon-RA recovery, but without Amon-RA you will have to add this partition manually. If your PC is a Linux box, it is very easy, but I don't know, how you wil do that using a Windows PC/Mac.

Froyo will support installing apps to SD card without Darktremor A2SD, but currently we do not have froyo...

ehy can help me someone please i've the following problem with my i5800 galaxy 3 : i can't install the busybox because i've not nand unlocked...i've the last firmware and i've tried oneclicklagfix and superoneclick...i've the root permissions but not nand unlocked...help me pleaseeeee
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] masterchief456:
Nobody?

Extra question: after rooting the phone seems to automatically delete some apps. Like for example i can't find autokiller anymore, and when i reinstall autokiller it says i don't have root acces.

Can anybody help?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ravenious:
for the first problem install fasterfix.apk,turn on the gps,run fasterfix and choose your country.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] vijacdblz:
busybox gets installed in your mobile while rooting,update contains both superuser.apk and busybox :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ravenious:
yes but i thought that was for this reason that app2sd didn't work...do you know an app like app2sd???
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] masterchief456:
I've installed fasterfix, but when I try to open the app, it doesn't do anything at all...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gusthy:
Our rooting package does not really install busybox, only puts busybox binary on the phone. After that you should install it manually with busybox --install -s /system/bin after remounting /system as rw.

Then you will find that A2SD still does not work, because of lack of ext2 support. I am trying to build a new kernel, it compiles, but does not run currently.

AFAIK there is no other app like A2SD. You can move some of your apk files to sdcard manually and make symbolic links back.

Why do you need A2SD?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ravenious:
i think that you haven't the root permissions beacuse when you run the app it ask you the permissions to start
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ravenious:
i would find an app that install apps on sd beacuse the internal space is too little,you can't install a lot of apps...however thanks for the answer :)

Flashing Branded Phone

The answer is probably on here somewhere but if i look much longer my eyes are gonna drop out.... anyway, has anyone tried flashing any firmware on a branded phone? i flashed my i5801 but only after i got my phone unlocked, my mrs has got one now which is Orange branded here in the UK and wondered if i could flash without having to pay to get it unlocked?

Howto root your I5800 the easy way (without software and still keep all your data and

Tutorial -> Howto root your I5800 the easy way (without software and still keep all your data and settings)

This tutorial is an adaptation from my I9000 tutorial but does work for your phone!

This method will keep all your data and settings! this means the phone will not be factory resetted.

You won't need the Android SDK tools to go in recovery mode! or use Odin3

Reported to work on all firmwares!* (even simlocked devices and phones with voodoo fix etc) but use at your own risk! (it is pretty safe and foolproof!)

If you wan't to unroot (to avoid waranty problems) you can unroot your phone!

* This method is not working for Froyo 2.2 roms

* For people that don't have the 3 button combo i made a small script to boot in to recovery. See tutorial below

!!! Disclaimer: If you brick your phone it's your own problem! But it is fairly safe because you can still reflash your phone with Odin3

Only root your phone if you feel the need to! (like applying the lagfix or for use with certain backup apps)

ROOT includes:

- Superuser 2.3.6.1

- Busybox 1.16.0 (for use with Titanium Backup)

Automated Method!
