There IS a problem with battery calculation, it's obvious, not related to calibration and reported many times here. The explanations given by another member in this topic are probably right.

This doesn't affect battery life and you'll learn to see when your battery needs energy, but this interferes with programs like SetCPU...

Another remark about SetCPU : when you expect mid-heavy CPU usage in the background (with Deezer for example, or with some SIP program), uncheck your Screen off profile, else your phone will lag so much that it won't even be able to wake up (not before several minutes if you're lucky !).

Well, this profile may annoy you as it slows down the phone every time you wake it up, so you can reduce a bit battery life and improve user experience by changing this profile to 83 -> 166, conservative (but don't forget to reduce its priority so it doesn't apply before very low battery profiles).

Well, I was talking about Internet, not GPS signal. :p You probably know that there isn't 3G everywhere in France, so I wonder if losing 3G signal may cancel navigation or hide the map.

The problem occurs with any Youtube video...

I'm in fact in Universal Mobile. They use the same TV service than BT (even the same apps)...I'm a new UM customer, though, 'will try later and if it doesn't work, I'll call UM.

sim card problem

has this occured to others also???

sometimes, (around 1,2 times a day max.)

the phone shows that sim card is removed and restart the phone..

there is no network shown.

though i never touched sim card..

and when i restart it it detects the sim...and shows network coverage

i also think that this happened 1,2 times with my nexus 1....

i think its the android...os which does this...

anyone has experienced thsi before????
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pp63.1:
Up to now, I haven't had that case, but we may reasonably guess that maps being constantly fetched through the network, the navigation should be stopped (or an error message displayed) as soon as you exit the current cached-in-device map perimeter. Maps are definitely preloaded for only neighbouring blocks, given the huge data a full map represents (a France Tomtom map "weights" more or less 1Go).

Sorry to hear that. I hope MY Youtube will continue to work ;-). What about DailyMotion app ? Same issue ? Both work well for me, from the beginning.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] AnyDroid:

hi friends i bout samsung i5801 i have got a small query and hoping to get my problem solved. i was using dg6 firmware for 5801 my gps was working fine even i got it rooted but there was issue with my battery later i flashed my phone xji2 now the battery gives me backup for the whole day but its gps is not working correctly even after applying the gps fix i get my location 10-15 kms away from where i am at present.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Vodkuccio:
yeah, it happens to me too, once or more at day, i haven't seen any interactions

with app or events by now.

It started to happen when my phone falled off the bed, but a friend of mine got it the first day of use.

I think it's a software issue, gonna send some emails to samsung to hope they will look into it.

Actually i removed the pin from the sim, so if it reboots the sim i got the phone back online , but I really don't like this solution.

BTW there's no way to set a code to be asked when someone turn on the phone?

Flashing to I5800XWJI4

Hello everyone,

I have a new i-5801 with a stock I5801DXJG5 firmware loaded.

I want to upgrade to a newer firmware like I5800XWJI4.

My question is - Has anyone successfully upgraded his firmware from I5801DXJG5 to another continent firmware like the European I5800XWJI4?

Will I have problems like loosing my IMEI or getting my MAC to change all the time?

If anyone successfully did what I want to do please let me know!

Thanks :)

A little out of the thread question, but i wud like to ask i5801 users 2 things, 1. do you find backlight bleeding from any of the sides as in my phone the top has a lot of backlight bleeding (its a new phone bought about 2 days back). 2. Is it that the speaker on the phone is mono whereas on the galaxy 5 i5503 its stereo kind of speaker.

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pp63.1:
Hi,

Could you be more specific ? Have you installed Kies software or Samsung usb drivers on your computer ?

When plugging the USB cable, your phone should ask you whether you wish to connect with : Kies software, modem, USB mass storage, etc. Select "USB Mass Storage" ; then, on the notification area, you will see a USB item, tap on it and click on the appropriate button to "mount" the SD card.

If the phone does not ask you the USB connection mode, it means the computer has not recognized the phone ; if you select USB Mass Storage, but nothing related to USB can be found in the notification area (drag to the bottom the top of the screen), it also means your computer has not recognized your phone as an USB key.

For both issues, first try with another usb cable, I had an issue with mine, the 2-inner data pins in the USB plug were most likely broken since the charge was OK but the USB connection impossible (USB power : 2 outer pins, USB data transfer : 2 inner pins).
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] xensoul:
Yup. I have installed them. I can still it up until today. This morning it suddenly can't work either in windows or ubuntu it seems that i can only charge my phone. I will try to get another cable to try. Thanks for the reply really appreciate and needed it.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pp63.1:
To be sure, could you power-off the phone, unplug the battery, wait 30 seconds, plug the battery and power-on. That way, the electronic circuits will really be powered off.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] xensoul:
Just tried what you have said. It does not work. So i guess is either the cable spoil or my phone usb port is faulty. For now i don't have extra usb cable for the phone. Gonna buy a new one to test. Thanks. :)

Has anyone managed to change the startup or shutdown boot screen?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
I kept trying to remove it by changing the config that enables it.. But that file keeps getting overwritten by the one Samsung uses stock.

I get a TELUS startup logo and a Samsung startup logo. There are 2 different executables that are run on boot.. In /system/bin or something. They should be removable with root, but I'm not sure (or care to find out) what happens when you delete and startup the phone.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] xenixas:
we need android 2.2 to fix bunch of problems, gps, battery, laging and so on...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Phonicle:
No guarantees that it will fix all of those issues, but we can certainly hope!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Margino:
I have a rooted Orange branded i5801. At startup I get the Orange animation then the glowing Samsung logo. On shutdown I get a similar Orange animation to the first one.

The shutdown animation is located in /system/media/video/shutdown. It's a folder containing 25 PNGs for the animation, named shutdown_1.png to shutdown_25.png. I tried replacing these with my own PNGs, named in exactly the same way and rebooted the phone. The phone shutdown immediately without the animation and then hung on the Samsung logo when starting up again. I pressed and held the power button so the phone shut down again and when I turned it back on it loaded to TWLauncher without a problem. I copied the original PNGs back to the shutdown folder but the shutdown animation still doesn't show. This is not necessarily a bad thing as the phone shuts down very quickly.

When I transfer the files to the phone I'm using SwiFTP server 1.24 and an FTP program on my PC. I'm not using the SDK, so I don't know if that has anything to do why the shutdown animation isn't working (something to do with CHMOD, or permissions...?) Transferring files to the phone using FTP is fantastic and a load less hassle than going through KIES and a USB cable. I recommend it.

As for the startup animation, I've followed all the guides I can find, which are mainly for Moto Droid and the G1 using a zip holding the animation and desc.txt files for configuration. This method stops the Samsung logo from showing but it hangs at that stage as described above. I've copied the zip file to /system/media and /data/local (again using FTP, or RootExplorer after USBing the file onto the SDCard, not the SDK).

The two files in /system/bin are bootanimation and bootanimation2nd. Hopefully they have something to do with Orange and Samsung animation. They don't have files extensions and when I open them is PSPad they come up in hex. In /system/media there is a bootani.qmg file which again opens in hex. I'll have a play with these files over the weekend but it would be useful to know which software can open and manipulate them.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pp63.1:
Soon, we will be able to update to Froyo, but meanwhile :

- the GPS issue is easily fixed thanks to Octy "Gpsopt" application

- as for the battery / lagging "issues", in most cases, I seriously think they are indeed often related to defective or ill-behaved third-party applications (like weather/news widgets or ad-sponsored "free" applications, constantly fetching data from the network). I'm sorry, but I don't have any real battery issue or lagging, but I do pay extra attention to the applications I download. And if the phone lags a bit, a simple reboot is an easy thing to do ! This is a phone, not a laptop...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] xenixas:
I hope so :) but, the problem isn't aps proble is then the batery reaches red color, I just restart my phone, and battery shows 60% again, then the battery reaches the red state, I restart my phone, and it shows yellow :) so I don't think this is aps problem, or the battery.

p.s. as always sorry -> english -> error -> restart language -> lol :D

@rex

hi rex i am having ddjg6 firmware. what do you advice should i flash with some new firmware or stick to the same 1 as i want better battery backup.and how much does your phone gives talking hours. mine dies with in 4-4.5 hrs with 2g and apns off gosh. and are there any developers for the custom firmware as for htc will be sweet to see some custom roms for our device.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Hi Sahil,

After trying out various firmware versions I think DDJG6 is one of the most efficient out there.

Regarding battery, its the wrong calculation on firmware part which is the culprit. Battery is fine. You will always find it going 30% straight from 60% and while charging straight to 60% in 1 min :(

Battery backup is good if it gives you 4+ hrs. of talktime or 10+ hrs of music or 8+ hrs. of WiFi/GPRS/GPS or 2+ hrs of 3G. You can now compare bro'.

My phone with DDJG6 is giving me nearly 24 hrs. with a lot of downloads daily and online activities like Facebook, Twitter, GTalk, etc. For stats, I have downloaded 57.8 MB of software in last 3 days. Major reason behind battery drain on Android devices is its own policy of keeping processes running in the background. Use WatchDog lite and no Task killers.

Regarding custom ROMs I have not come across any as yet although I have written to cyanogen to consider our device for his ROMs but let's see. Anyways Froyo is going to hit us soon :) Then we could be customising it rather than Eclair.

Hope I could have been of any little help to you. Feel free to ask.

Good Luck ! ! !
