Feels/looks faster than 2.1! Even with all the old apps still on it! And all the standard Samsung apps that I had removed are back offcource...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hamsiro:
All my settings and installed applications were preserved...

I didn't add datafs.rfs, I used the .tar file as it was

I used "one package" option

The speed didn't change noticeable ... so it seems to me... the keyboard has also numbers available on the first row.

Is Adobe Flash 10.1 working ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
the ones who have installed it...

Are you guys all in Europe? Or are you in North America ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
i just flashed. i think it works fine.... i will tell you more in 10 minutes
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] LeoApollo:
As you can see I live in the Netherlands, so Europe. On the site of samfirmware.com is the Froyo firmware for so far only available for Europe .

By the way, no problems yet.....
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
I figured you were from Europe because of that :)

Supposedly the European firmwares work on North American phones though.. Which is why I was asking.

So, so tempting..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Endangered:
it's official or beta?

becouse i don't find russian localization..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Boboop:
My first try : locked on the samsung logo.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
Did you factory reset first?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Boboop:
Yes, i did.

Second try is the good one, just finished booting. No memory problem too.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
Awesome..

I'm assuming you're in Europe too?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] LeoApollo:
Some one managed to Root?? I'd try two different options, but no result jet...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
i managed to root, with z4root !!! thanks to RyanZA
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
FROYO !!!

Hooray.........

Finally I have FROYO on my phone ;)

Here is the list of changes :

1. Social Hub *

2. Task manager *

3. App2SD *

4. Mobile AP *

5. Program Monitor Widget

6. Google Voice Search

7. Added animations

8. Newer Icons (colorful)

9. Settings better categorized and organized

10. Gmail has the option to Go Next/Previous

11. Voice Recognition has its separate settings category

12. Power switch has a new option - Data Network Mode

13. Google Search Widget has improvements and Voice capabilities by default

14. Few new and beautiful (for a change this time ;)) wallpapers

15. Media Scanning is Super Fast. Nearly 5x faster.

16. Gallery has become faster too

17. Improved GTalk

It is FASTER guys :):p;)

I will keep adding to this post only. So keep checking it.

Good Luck guys !

Happy Froyo-ing ;)

Edit :

After using it for nearly 36+ hrs, 3 flashes and 2 Recovery mode data and cache wipe

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 !

Will this froyo upgrade work in my apollo? I am from Brazil and have instaled now I5800LVIJG7 in my phone.

Sorry if it is a stupid question, i am new in the Android world.

Thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kreeger:
Im sorry, I feel really stupid but when you say home button, it is the main central button at the bottom of the phone?

If yes, I have pressed it+volum+on/off power and it does not work. My phone shut down and nothing appends...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ravenious:
to first question : YES, second question : YOU MUST SHUT DOWN THE PHONE AND THEN PRESS THAT BUTTONS HOLDING ON THEM UNTIL YOU SEE THE RECOVERY MODE SCREEN
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Boboop:
It must be done while turning the phone on.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kreeger:
Thats okay. But i'm disappointed, update.zip does not work.

First of all, I have followed the "One Click Root/UnRoot I9000 (Eclair and Froyo) Mac and PC" method:

*#06# can check the imei code is ok~

z4root is work! gps not have fix...

hope have the aosp rom and lagfix now~
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] zn1p:
Whats wrong?

Sorry again for question,but i`m stuck. So my problem is: then i enter upload mode ODIN just stops detecting phone. So i tried reinstalling drivers,because i think this is a problem ,thats why in DEVICE MANAGER (win xp) then i enter upload mode driver changes to Unknown Device. And yes phone is in USB MODEM mode. And then it`s on ODIN detects it and DEVICE MANAGER writes it`s SAMSUNG.... So maybe some advice? because it`s 5h then i try to solve it :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] leosarmanho:
So the update will probably work on a Brazilian phone?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] abhi0n0nakul:
caution::::

when i flashed to xxjp8....

all went wonderful,, until after few minutes the screen became unresponsive, and i have to restart it...

then it froze on samsung logo.. i restarted again..

now it froze on gt 5800 logo...

then i flshed again 2,3 times...no luck...

then flashed ji4 , no luck..

finally flashed to again ddjg6.... now working.. but i think its still 5800 logo shown.. not 5801..

why???

does this happened to others???
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] watanabe:
Driver issue is pain in the ass sometime. Have you tried to use another USB port? Preferably the one on the back if you're on a desktop PC. Another alternative is to install the Samsung KIES software and the driver. Restart your PC. Remove the KIES, but leave the driver. Try to plug in your device again.

Nope. I got Froyo in my Singapore i5801.

Just installed. Can you let us know what you have installed after flashing JP8? Do you root the phone?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] abhi0n0nakul:
now i have again flashed to jp8... lets see for how much time it remains stable..

the homescreen now has htc leap interface..... great...

pinch to see all homescreens..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] abhi0n0nakul:
there is also disc view in music player...wow like the samsung wave... the volume bar changed...

there is great improvement in speed be it in scrolling or orientation change or switching apps
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] zn1p:
Yeah i`m already try that trick with KIES, so i uninstalled all third part drivers. Downloaded again KIES, with it`s own drivers it`s still same problem, but i found in KIES folder some different USB driver install so i`ll uninstall KIES and try that one. And if not will try simplest way ang go to my gf house and try out flashing with hers pc:) And thanks for advice!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] watanabe:
I personally like the new text selection. Simply tap on the text and a thumb slider will appear, enabling you to make a precise selection with a nice select, cut, and copy indicators.

Good luck Bro. :)

Hold the volume down + home button (the center one) + power on/off.

Hey guys, North American dude successfully flashed 2.2 and rooted using z4root.

Anyone know why Titanium Backup gives an error when restoring backups? Error is:

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Saka911:
hey guys,

I am from India with i5801 and successfully upgraded from ji2 to jp8 using odin. The phone is working fine, but I have two doubts if anyone is willing to help

1) when I check my firmware *#1234# it shows

PDA: i5800xxjp8

phone : i5800xxjh1

csc: i5800xxjp8

what I cant understand is while "pda and "csc" are jp8 why is the phone still on "jh1"

and secondly is it going to cause any problems?

2) how to install/move apps to sd card?

3) the phone bootscreen is showing i5800 , but I guess that doesnt matter much.. :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Corrupted backup probably :(

Guys,

I am facing a few major problems with this one which i assume are due to some mistake of ODIN or mine :(

1. Phone keeps getting hang.

2. Messaging hangs after restoring messages from backup.

3. Z4Root hangs (hence no root as yet)

I remember it went to recovery mode after flashing where it showed some errors regarding not getting able to delete/wipe some

files. I had to select "Reboot system now" there. Did this happen with anyone or everyone ? Should I re-flash ?

Thanks.......
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] doritos93:
This happened to me as well. Did you factory reset?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Thrice.

Had to take out battery (first time ever after buying this phone) for 4 times :(

Edit :

Guys check this out ;-)

Did not know I was famous, joking guys ;-)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] watanabe:
It happened on me. I wipe the cache and do factory reset from the recover and boot back. Everything is normal.

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
@gazski and others,

How you guys are finding the speed of it ?

Hows your messaging working ? How many messages you have restored and what impact it had on speed ? Can you send more than 10 messages in a single go (group message) ?

How's WiFi ? In my case it is very unstable :(

Lets get to finer analysis of this new beauty ;-)

Hi guys,

I'm not impressed by the speed of the new firmware but maybe I was expecting too much. I also had the problem with the error regarding wiping the cache. I'm facing problems regarding installing my applications, with huge lag during install process, close to hang issue... The Player doesn't work properly, also Rock Player doesn't work in system mode.

I still can't acces gpssetup2 using keyboard in order to change the GPS Setting... I had no time to test GPS outside...

I also could't install Adobe Flash, it just hangs... I'm a little bit dissappointed...

one more new bug in my jp8 i5801

whenever I start a call > start talking> proximity sensor on>display blank> remove phone from ear still screen does not come back on>so I have to manually switch the screen on and end the call

what i basically mean is that proximity sensor is buggy in this jp8 release or maybe this is the way samsung intended it in froyo

2) one more bug, while video is playing in "video player", you cant go back by using the hardware back button, u have to use the onscreen back button
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
All those people who are NOT FACING any issues with this firmware, could you plz tell exact steps you took to flash ? Before and after also ? We might be doing something wrong :(

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Margino:
That's good news. Did you loose your IMEI or did your MAC change?

In order to figure out why some i5801 are loosing IMEIs and having their WIFI MAC changed could the brave i5801 users who have flashed to i5800 and/or rooted their i5801's please post the following information.

Before flashing/rooting was your phone

1. Orange branded

2. Locked to a network or Unlocked

3. Which original firmware (area, version) did it have

4. Any other information that you think relevant

Thanks.
