So you think I could just pretend I'm stupid and say: Well, my phone just doesn't turn on anymore, I haven't done anything.

This seems a little easy for me because why should the bootloader get ****ed up on regular use?

Edit:

Also, has someone experience with w-support.de (A german samsung service partner / repair shop)

I read that they replace almost everything without complaints.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pvinodchowdary:
we jst need to wait for the official froyo...or atleast wait for JPC......
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] stubborn_d0nkey:
ive read april or june, so id be satisfied with feb (:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] toondewachter:
I do think you can pretend being stupid indeed ;)

The bootloader is a part from the firmware, it doesn't get ****ed up unless you flash new firmware. Now what I meant was that it normally flashes first, so if you can't go to download mode or recovery mode, it means that the bootloader is not flashed to the phone's ROM. There can be other explanations for an empty ROM though. E.g. faulty motherboard, bad chip, ... Some dude brought his phone in with the same reason and the same explanation and they simply replaced his motherboard...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ronhoover88:
Guys there is never been a JPC, it was JPB which was wrongly as JPC by Samsung Fus News i guess
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
yeap... i think so too..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] xenixas:
like I said on April first :D let me see 4 month left hmm I think I'll sell it in about few months :D

Samsung Portugal have "leacked" the new manual for galaxy 3 aka 580 with FROYO on board.

downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201012/20101203172406760/GT-I5800_UM_EU_Froyo_Eng_Rev.1.0_101201.pdf

It seems we are close.

I5800 flash problem

Hi everybody!

I have an I5800 from T-mobile Hungary. I want to install Froyo to it. I have installed the newest Kies and all drivers I found to windows xp, but when I connect the phone in download mode to the pc, windows says the usb device cannot be recognized. I cheked Hardware Manager, it says unknown usb device. I tried it on an other pc, but it's the same.

I would be glad if someone could give me some advice.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
i think your phone's usb port have a problem... you have to go to service..

(maybe because a chinese charger, the usb port on your phone stopped working in usb mode). if so, you will need to go to samsung service...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] lacee79:
I don't think it's the usb port's fault, because Kies sees the phone in normal standby mode. Even Odin sees it in standby. Only download mode doesn't work.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jazux:
Hi, there is couple things i want t ask. 1. These unofficial uptades like jp9, jpb, jpa.... are those some samsungs unofficial beta releases??? Or has some member of xda behind these uptades??? 2. I have asked samsung to tell when they are gonna release the official 2.2 and they told me it will be released summer 2011 so does that mean we are not going to see 2.3 before the summer??? Or is it possible that someone could make 2.3 to SG3??? 3. Is jpc gonna be 2.3 or 2.2??? Right now im running jp9 and it works veeeeeeerryyyyy well!!!!!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
hmm ok then. if odin sees it in stanby then its not a usb problem..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
there are a lot bugfixes from JP9.

flash JPA :). the 2.2 roms are leaked from samsung--> there are beta releases. jpc is not exist, its a mistake by SAMSUNGFUS..

idont think we will see an oficial 2.3 update by sammy.. maybe someone will port it..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ed_vollegas:
and after we get that, someone wil cook a gingerbread ROM, and we will have something else to talk about :D
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Mr.Gamer:
Without bootloader they will have to substitute the part entirely, at least they did so for me!

Just say it got bricked flashing a kies update due to electricity interruption...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Soulztorm:
I think I just will but, since it's a freshly bought phone from amazon, it says android 2.1 on the bill, which I have to send them because of the warranty.

So why would kies offer me an update if 2.2 isn't released yet?

Were there other 2.1 updates in between?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Mr.Gamer:
Yes, i don't know if via Kies, but definitely there was bugfix versions...

The point is, i cannot be sure if they can recover the ROM and read what you've flashed, what i've been told after 1 hour waiting outside samsung center is:

"We can't reflash it right away either, we need other parts from samsung mainland"

So well... after 25days (YES, SAMSUNG ITALY IS SLOW), they gave the phone with new mainboard (same IMEI tho!)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] vsoft11:
which firmware is good among JPA and JPB??

i heard that JPB is slugish. is it true??

is JPA good and does not affect the performance???

plz help

thanx in advance
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
There are pros and cons of each.

Gsam and I each have made hybrids of these two firmwares - taking what we can from each and integrating it into one rom.

JPB reportedly has terrible battery life, while JPA has great battery life, but the screen doesn't turn back on for a little while after a call.

The hybrid has good battery life AND comes back after a call is over.. There are other bugs, but the big deal-breaker ones are effectively eliminated.

Remember: They're both beta firmwares from Samsung. They won't work perfectly.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] vsoft11:
from where is that hybrid firmware available??
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] goranka:
cannot boot

Hi guys! I have a big problem with my g3. After i made a factory reset, because wifi error, the phone stuck at the pulsing samsung logo. I tryed to flash earlyer roms, but its not work. I cant enter the recovery mode: HOME+UPvolume+POWER.

It says FORCED UPLOAD BY KEY PRESSING.

I hope someone solves my problem.

Sry for my bad eng.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jaskiratsingh:

Since everybody here seems to be rooted, anybody tried theming their device with metamorph ?

And i posed a query about swype y'day as to whether it is possible to get the new version for galaxy i5800.

Anybody can answer this.

kindly direct me to proper page if this is not the right place to ask this question

Slumpolo?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] slumpolo:
I tried metamorph and it works without problem... some themes (ea. Windows 7 theme) has some problems with our display resolution

Ciao
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] vandenik:
soo, what kind, the "firmware" is currently the best?

P>s

так какая же прошивка на данный момент лучшая?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] slumpolo:
Maybe the last august firmware since it's rootable :)

Ciao
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] vandenik:
5-day running firmware I5800XWJI4!

Very slowly, working the menu (((phone book and contacts, loads slowly ((
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Krawida:
can you post a tutorial of that? as to how to backup the old files and as to how the theming can be done. i think it will be useful.

and what about swype?

EDIT 1: or did you use the default method used for droids and others. even so i think it will be useful to know whether there are any divergences in the procedure and would be obliged if i you could direct me as to what exactly you did?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] AnjodeNegro:
By me:

Hi.

I'm new to Android.

My problem is related to GPS.

I've read the initial post regarding to GPS fix.

I did what Octy said to do with his automatic option, "FINAL" GPS FIX By Octy: Fully Automatic.

The question is, it is necessary root to apply this fix?

I'm asking this because i still cant connect to satallites. I've turned on the GPs and waited about a hour and nothing... no satelites...

Can you help me?

Thanks in advanced

I've got a naive question, but do you try outside in a clear place and far from building?

I've tried in open air far from buildings, etc

One more thing

i've also installed the other application, gps booster

Can somone please answer my question?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] sceslav:
Hi, i have the same problem on my i5800 :(
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] drumphilosopher:
Hi, I think that Octy’s fix is not permanent, because the first time I tried it, it was ok, but now I can’t get a GPS signal either…:confused:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Just upgraded to JI2 and it is smooth.

Rooted it with BackfireNL method and got Live Wallpaper on it.

Will do further testing and post.

Enjoy guys !!!

Edit 1 :

Battery life is still pathetic. Came down to 50% within 12 hr.

I have noticed before also that Gallery consumes as much as 72-81% battery in Battery History. Do we have some other efficient alternative to this app ?

I have put my phone to GSM-only mode, using Black Wallpaper, GPS,WiFi turned off, brightness down to 5 point only and yet battery performance is same. Can LauncherPro be the reason (although I doubt cause it is a very efficient app but I could be wrong) ?

Any suggestions friends ???
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] god_md5:
i try you adb is not work

adbd cannot run as root in production builds
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Krawida:
launcher pro is definitely the reason. all alternative launcher solutions take up lot of memory and use up battery than the default one. if you want themes the best way is to go for metamorph. but i dont know the exact procedure. have been asking abt it but nobody seems to be giving a reply.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Hi Ali_alex,

Could you plz convert Live Wallpaper commands in a script which could be executed in Terminal. Many people might be having some problems in typing such long commands in Terminal.

Thanks !
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Krawida:
and are you sure abt this firmware being better than what came with your phone. cos u have said its smooth. really? are you sure you are not imagining it ? and also you have said the same abt J14 if i am not wrong.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Oh is it ? I will remove LP and check back. Should I uninstall it completely or just switch to TouchWiz ?

Even I want to try MetaMorph but being a Novice in Android don't know exactly how to go about it. If I come across any material I will surely share it with you and everybody.

Thanks for the reply....

Just got the update that it's online about 15 minutes ago.. downloading.. :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] JackStow:
did u make a rom with those files? cuz inside the rar from samfirmware have a lot of files, not a usual .tar to use with odin ><

Make a .tar with:

cache.rfs

factoryfs.rfs

;).
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] JackStow:
i cannot edit .tar files lol

did u flashed ur phone with it? can u upload this .tar plz?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Gsam101:
Use 7zip ;).

I'll upload it, i'm making a "clean" rom from this right now ;).
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] JackStow:
humm.. i need to remove the ".md5" extension from file name, and let only ".tar" then extract with 7 zip and create a new tar with those files on 7zip? thats it?

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Gsam101:
Do NOT update bootloader !

It will VOID your warranty.

You have been warned.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
****:/ i flashed. anyway thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
No no. leave the files be. You'll have to select them one by one in ODIN, without using the One Package option..

In ODIN, select the ops file apollo_0531.ops in the OPS option.

Then:

In PHONE: I5800XXJP4_PHONE.tar.md5

In PDA: I5800XXJPF-REV02-PDA-CL794643.tar.md5

In CSC: I5800OXXJPF-CSC-MULTI-OXX.tar.md5

Don't select the Bootloader file anywhere!! It will void warranty!

Then flash.. Caution, this update will format your phone. It's got the datafs file inside..

This update will format the phone. It's got a datafs file..

JPF

Flashed JPF. :)

LagFix worked fine. SMS Bug free (no need to install sms aplications)...

Still looking for more updates...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] toondewachter:
So... JPF is still beta?

Where do you get the info that flashing the bootloader will void warranty? In the past I always have and I don't see any warnings on samfirmware.com...

Inform us on the issues the previous versions had:

- Screen returning after (long) call (JPA)

- Battery performance (JPB)

- Camera errors (JPA, especially JPB)

- Overall speed (JIT included?)

How close are we to the final release... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:

when i download the new jpf it comes in a .cgi file, is everyone else getting it as this???

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
I should have been more clear. The bootloader will void the warranty of those having the I5801 as it will change the booting screen to I5800.

JIT hasn't been yet included as the Linpack results are the same as before. Battery life is much better than JPB. Don't know about the other things....
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Zarin1480:
I am quite jealous of all you European folk and your early Froyo releases....

Is there any way to take a Euro flash, and mod it for North American phones? crack open the tarballs, replace the modem file or something?

I'm very anxious to see if Froyo will fix the annoying things that plague this phone...

Thanks!

you can flash any european firmware on your device... mine is a brazilian I5800L and i just flashed JPF and everything is working fine (wifi/3g/phone).

Gonna try the GPS and battery tomorrow, 4am already :p
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] vsoft11:
just flashed with jpf works smoothly.

and the bugs from jpa and jpb are fixed.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Saka911:
well

Well I went succesfully from JPA with lagfix to JPF

But the major problem for me is that the call click problem still does seem to exist . will need to make a few more calls to know for sure.

I had never installed JPB, or any custom ROM. If this continues I may have to go back to JPA. By the way I did not flash the 1 mb boot file. Maybe thats what is causing the problem?

Quadrant results JPF (with wifi on, screen shot app running)

347 (quite low I think)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
Proximity sensor is working fine with JPF. Also, the clicks during calls are gone, and the battery life is better than JPB. This is a good firmware..

When you manually added your APN, did you check if the APN-type (at the bottom of the list) is set to Internet + MMS ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jpbranco:
no, just mms :S

edit 2: in authentication type i have to use none, pap, chap our pap + chap?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
You can always disable the internet connection if you don't want to use it, by holding down the power button and select to disable your data connection. If you want to send an mms, you can always re-enable it. Seems a good and easy solution to me ;)

EDIT:

You need to have a working internet connection in order to send mms-messages. So that's why it's working now.

if i check GSM only, i can use MMS service, but the network by 3G don't work, is the solution i get lool

This new firmware couldn't have come at a better time.

For the last few days, when clicking on the app menu it doesn't load right away and has the spinning circle for a while. Other problems that were irritating with JPA that I have now are battery life indication sux, battery life sux, no gps at all, alarm doesn't work sometimes, alarm day is not by default today, alarm doesn't keep my selected ringtone, proximity sensor doesn't work, takes long time to end a call cause you have to go to homescreen then back to phone and click end. Contacts is messes up compared to Eclair regarding display options. Also I get quite a lot of things not working and forced closing with all the vibrations when it happens.

I was about to put JH2 back on. I'll try this JPF firmware tonight, before checking out all the new CES news.
