The compas dont goes as a real compas, it goes trough zones, internet way, searching for closest mast, so its not a real, it locates the directions!

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] SWEATTAIMI:
Compass

Nope it doesnt goes trough calibrator, not even sensor, you must move the phone round in the place you are to see the north position,

i tried it, its collecting data where the phone are,
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] SWEATTAIMI:

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] kill3r000:
Installed european Froyo. When writing on Qwerty keyboard or other it gives me "null' every character i use. Only in Handwriting mode or Swype it recognizes the characters. It's a pain in the @##. The compass is wrong, but the battery it's like in american Froyo - good (better than Eclair). I will reverse to original and wait for official. Too bad for the character "null" thing 'cause i think in the rest is better than american.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] nomad4ever:
How about Bluetooth in the new European 2.2? Is it working or broken, compared to the American Froyo? And how about lag? Is Apps2SD working better, right now I have to manually update every program, by moving first back to Phone. Update on SD doesn't work.

Still pondering, if I should start flashing again, the lag in the American Froyo is getting on my nerves. Just want to avoid having to flash back, if the European Froyo doesn't bring any improvements.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] kill3r000:
Bluetooth works. First time it rebooted, now is stable. App2sd ... do not know about updating, but it works the same as you described. Do not flash yet. You might get the "null". :P Wait for official through kies. Will be more stable.

I did find it in filecrop dot com but it did not work. Some error message came and it asked for some other file which i have to download separately..

Dont wast your time to try european firmware,

not all languages are avaible,

not in writing and language selection,

i preffer to wait !
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] myshu:
in my oppinion , the european froyo is much well made than the south american. it goes faster , has a bit more languages available and it's a good place to start for those who want stock froyo on theyre devices. for more experienced users the european froyo will get Mad Team's modifications in a few days.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] SWEATTAIMI:
Froyo europe?

Well the writing languages, are horrible not all languages, and ofc its more languages, its for europe, still not all the languages trough!

Asian Froyo 2.2 Firmwares?

I saw that there are also 2 new Asian Froyo Firmwares, which came out recently in January. Has anyone tried those?

I5508ZNKP1

I5508ZCKP2

I think, originally my phone came out with this one: I5503DXJG5 (Eclair).

Are the 2 new ones above for resistive Touchscreens only? As I'm mainly based in Indonesia, it would be nice to have those additional language options, like in my original 2.1 ROM.

Motafoca, as you said, samsung use a propietary IRL, for that reason, the galaxy spica port dont use froyo/gingerbread RIL, instead use a old ril from eclair.

At this moment i cant help much, but maybe another people can.

Some links a get:

http://forum.samdroid.net/f56/ril-development-froyo-3156/

http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/hardware/ril.git;a=summary

Maybe cm can work using a existing samsung ril implementacion instead the original from android or cm ril. I read on some forums that some unofficial CM ports are usong samsung RIL implementacion with non CM phone.apk and telfoneprovider.apk

Works fine

Actually, while flashing with ODIN, while the timer was 1min and 6 sec, my phone rebooted to recovery mode showing reboot option. While the timer was running, i clicked on reboot now and it rebooted to 2.2 meanwhile the timer was running in odin and by 5min 7 sec, odin showed PASS and when i inserted sim, it showed the error..

While flashing for the second time, i did not press the reboot button as it showed the option rather i waited till ODIN showed pass by the end of 5 min 8 sec and then as the phone was already in recovery mode, i did all other steps as described...

Now its working fine :)

I m using Motafoca 2.0.8b (stock theme) version.

Everything is going fine...

Lately i found that the Basic notification ringtones that are already installed with the phone, are not working... Whatever i choose, they play the same default tone.

for example> IF i choose basic notification tone "cloud" it plays the default tone and if i choose "Ta da", it again plays the default tone and not the actual tone...

Though i use my own notification tone (thro sd card from Audio>Notification), i jus need to know how to rectify this problem...!!

GPS Problem

Hello to all. Last week I buy my first Android phone - Samsung GT-I5500, and I am really happy about it, but a problem with my GPS is really serious and I do not know how to fix it and is there a way to fix the device with some software fix or it is a hardware problem.

So the problem is that, when I activate my GPS on my device the icon starts to blink and cannot connect at all. I've wait for a half an hour and nothing happens, it cannot connect at all. I try all programs that I find but nothing. I use assistance from my data connection and nothing.

Please tell me what I had to do, or it has to bring it to the place where I bought it for change.
