regarding to wifi connection

i'm testing it since had 2.1. on my own router there was a disconnection problem after first connection and disconnection. then i was thinking maybe it's a router thing so i unplugged it form the electricity plug and plug it again. and the story repeated. so i was thinking it is router issue. i was googling a bit and find out that there are quite a few persons with similar issue. they were telling about router seetings b/g/n, that there is a problem. ok. i couldn't access the settings at the time so i was thinking maybe it can be a ip issue and downloaded wifi static application from the market and it solved the problem and it solves the problem for me in any version, either samsung's or motafocas.

but, there seem to be a new problem after mocafota's. after i rooted twice in a line with Universal androroot the wifi error issue appeared. not always, just sometimes. i see it mainly when i turn the wifi trough on screen widget (to be pulled down), then wifi suddenly not connecting and go look in the settings and see written under wifi an error message. and yesteday it appeared also by the edge/g3/hdspa connection. and when reboot it is ok. can somebody tell me what's going on and how can i repair it?

Wifi driver from 5510

I use since today the Wifi driver from the i5510 on my i5500.

Looks like a more stable one. Less connection drops.

Copy system_wifi content to /system/wifi then reboot.

Cheers

ps: might be other interesting things in the i5510 froyo rom too.

edit: you might wanna give these commands a try. It looks like wifi

then really sleeps when screen goes dark:

i have a problem. After installing motafoca 2.0.8b and runned the app2sd.bat (i have made a ext2 partition on my card, followed all the steps form g5devteam tutotials) the wifi gets stuck in obtaining IP address. Can anyone help me? Tanks
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] tweakradje:
Well, at least the 2.0.8 wifi driver did not. With AnyCut you can create a shortcut to the "Testing" service sub menu. There you find "Battery History" with "Other usage" and "Since last unplugged" (from usb that is)

If "Running" and "Wifi On" are both the same then check "Wifi running". The last one should be much less than "Wifi On". Assuming you have Wifi on all the time.

With 2.0.8 driver that is not the case. That driver never "sleeps" and keeps running, no matter what you set in sleep policy!!

Cheers

edit: looks now that an app I installed is responsable for keeping Wifi alive. (perhaps Retro Radio)
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] John000:
Try this.

Goto settings>applications>development>and check usb debugging.

Then try restore using titanium.

Note:titanium backup shouldnt be running when changing the settings.

Run it only after changing settings.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] virav:
problem again!!

I have Motafoca 2.0.8b stock theme installed and using for about a month.. Now i am having these problems though i did hard reset plenty of times

1) If i SMS a person, the message automatically goes to some another recipient who was not the intended one

2) My default notification tones present in the phone by default gives the same sound whichever is played (eg Ta da,etc etc) but when explored thro root explorer and played the tone it plays correctly

3) whenever i add new songs to my "Music" folder present in SD card, it is not been displayed or identified in Media player and not in recently added list too... ;(

Hope all these are common problem and hope i may get a perfect solution..;(

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] John000:
this happened because u flashed firmware from asia I5508, those firmware are meant for resistive touch screen galaxy phones. So the touch wont work on your capacitive touch screen.Install any non Asian firmware or if u want Asian go for i5503 from Asian list,you touch will work then.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] SWEATTAIMI:
Gosh

You are really stuck at this one aight `?

well thats not hard thing to do to flash,

and the I5508 is for galaxy 3, not for galaxy 5,

dont bother to use it u need to reflash again later

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] tweakradje:
Hi,

Just started another thread on the i5500 because due to the newer firmware (perhaps newer bootloader) I cannot find the /efs filesystem on my i5500 (running I5500XWJJ6)

Now I want to go back to older firmware that has the /efs filesystem for unlocking.

Which firmware should I use? Does it include older bootloader? The XWJJ6 firmware includes a bootloader tar with following files:

arm11boot

mibib

oemsbl

qcsbl

Can I use older firmwares that do not have a bootloader included? (I5500XXJED)

Change the language of the phone(I5500 Europa) to English(UK).After that connect to Kies and you ll find version ....JI1,JG3,JI2. Update.Hope it works to you too.

Note that the CSC file content Language,and if is no match,Kies do not find the update.

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] tweakradje:
hi, Still trying to unlock my newer i5500. No /efs here. So I trying different approach. From a professional unlock tool I got these sequences:

2. Unlocking

1. Enter code *#7284# - choise phone usb.

2. Enter code *#9090# - choise usb diag. (or *#197328640# -> 9 -> 4 -> usb diag ) then reboot phone

3. Connect cable. Setup drivers

4. Select Diagnostic port in port settings

5. Press Unlock SP button.

That gave me the COM15 diag port that could be used in both PSAS and Hyperterminal.

PSAS shows efs but .efs_private is kinda locked. Perhaps it needs a password from PSAS

to unlock it?

Now what commands can be givven in Hyperterminal to unlock it?

Now it only shows BOOTING COMPLETED.

Anyone?

- now connect your phone to your PC by USB cable

- select UMS (usb mass storage device)

- goto the drive that represents your card

- open dumpstate_<date>.log

No internet connection after flashing

Hi kancrutt,

I have a GT-I5503 Galaxy 5 which is bought in Turkey. I have used for several days and since there is nor real android market in my original rom, i have flashed it according to the way you explained. It was successful, however i cant see the 3G/UMTS/HSDPA network anymore. Moreover, i cant see EDGE network. I cant connect to internet at all. I checked the settings but there is nothing related to this. I cant see the "Enable always-on mobile data" option under Settings/Wireless & network settings / Mobile networks", and I used to see this option with the original firmware.

I will be grateful if you can help me.

By the way, I installed the firmware I5500XWJH4.

Thank you all..
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] a9u5_h:
Mine is also doesn't have Enable always-on mobile data after upgrading to this rom

But i can conect to the internet without problem

Have you Check your apn setting?

Because after you upgrade to this rom, it can't set your apn automaticly

Or try the jj6 version from samfirmware

(Sorry for my bad english)

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] kingofthecats83:
Yes, I have tried the I5500XWJJ6 version and dame problem exists in that version too. I just can't see the the "Enable always-on mobile" setting. I didnt do anything wiht the APN settings since I didnt do anything with APN settings to connect internet with my original ROM. However, since this is not the original ROM maybe it can help and I will try it immediately. I will write here the result.

I also tried another version which I found from samfirmware.com. You can find a list of firmwares on samfirmware under android/I5500 section.

I tried the Arabic I5503JPJI1 ## firmware and Asia I5508ZCJH2 ## firmware. In the arabic firmware, I was able to see the enable always on mobile setting, however I was not able to change it. It was selected ON( I mean it was enabled), however i couldnt change it, it is completely ststaic and always on, but i was still unable to connect internet through EDGE or UMTS or HSDPA. As I said I also tired the Asia firmware. I guess there is a mistake with that firmware on the site I have wrote above, because it seems that it belongs to I5800 model phone and after installing that firmware my phnes screen didnt work at all. There was image bu ti touching didnt work. So I got back to arabic version again.

So my problem is still unsolved. And I summarized my tryings above. I will check if APN settings will solve the problem.

Thank you all.

No internet connection after flashing

Hi again everybody,

Now, I have tried setting true APN settings for my operator - which Vodafone Turkey- but there is no solution once more. I can not connect to the internet at all. Moreover, I can't even see 3G (means UMTS network connected) or H (means HSDPA network connected) or E ( means EDGE network connected) signs on the top bar of the phone. There is just signal strength which at highest level all the time. It is just something like the internet ability or let me say data network connection of the phone is totally disabled. I think this because as I said, I can't even see there is a network available for internet like 3G/HSDPA/EDGE.

It seems I am still at the same point and stuck at there.

I am still waiting help of everybody, and I will really be gratefull to everyone if I can solve this problem, because I bought this phone for internet connection mainly.

Thank you very much everybody.
