[Galaxy 3 Android Development] wesley29:
Ok it has been working then, but not for titanium backup and now I have to manually install all my apps.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] banahaw:
can anyone reupload JPA with mediafire link or hotfile rapidshare doesnt work with me at the official link in samfirware.thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] bioniclizard:
Hey guys. I updated to JPA and I think I found a bug. Contacts don't close when I press the back button, only with home button. The problem is contacts remain open (in background) if you check the built in task manager.

I only tested GPS inside and it actually got a fix! It took a while, but not too long.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gigahurtzzz:
hey im not able to use 2g gprs please help. when i try to recievethe settings it says my phone doesnt support automatic config. it used to work with 2.1. it doesnt connect even though i conigure it manually
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Cygnuss:
This also happens with JP9 guess we will have another version after all since JPA still has bugs :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] divinesahil:
prob with jpa

during call its hard to get the screen back i mean the proximity senser is not working efficiently for my phone
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
I have that with JP9.. I wonder if it'll get fixed.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mobile9999:
Anyone knows how to check whether the JIT version and whether it is built into this ROM?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] divinesahil:
reverted back to jk1 will wait for official release
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
Same here tried to find a way to check if JIT is enabled or not in this build or not.

But no luck, if anyone have any idea pls share.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mobile9999:
I tried using adb dalvikvm help command, which i get

" Configured with: debugger profiler hprof show_exception=1

Dalvik VM init failed (check log file) "

I dumped the /system/build.prop, don't see any setting on JIT. :confused::confused:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
i found some people adding this line at the very bottom of the build.prop to get jit enabled.

dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit

Gona try it this evening when i get home. hoping to see it works.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
I added the line and put the edited build.prop in my system folder. No use, didn't do anything.. Linpack still showing the same results.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] divinesahil:
seriously jit got no use even if u enable with abd
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
I have seen immediate difference in linpack results for some people using I5700 there scodes jumped to 8-9 from 4-5 after enabling JIT. May be our firmwares are not having complete JIT libraries thinking about putting some custom JIT library and test.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
I'm gonna wait till the final release of Froyo to see if JIT gets implemented properly. The files that are supposed to be there in the system folder for jit already exist, but maybe they are older versions, so do not have any effect.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
If the files are there then i know someone who can help me get them running guy is a pro in Android Customizations. Keeping my fingers crossed and hoping to get these files running.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] virusez:
Don't close with back and home button for me.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
Hope you can get it to run. I tried the procedure to enable it step by step, but no use.. It's not working..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
I think this was done intentionally, so that Contacts loads faster the next time you open it. The back button took me to the homescreen, but Contacts was still there in the Task Manager, which I find is a good thing as the Contacts lag a little when opened for the first time.

Even in the Symbian phones, Contacts and Log stay open in the background, although they don't show in the Task list.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
Good point i wont mind few essential services running in background just to improve daily use features like contacts performance.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pvinodchowdary:
can anyone post the list of FROYO firmware we have according to their respective AREAS
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
If only they could add Call Logs to this list of 'keeping open in the background' applicatios, life would be so much easier..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
Till now we have JP8, JP9 and JPA Froyo beta firmwares which are all for Europe and for Model GT-I5800.

You can get detailed info on the samfirmware.com
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pvinodchowdary:
which froyo firmware is so far the best up to date..???
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
Same as the order they were released so JPA.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Vodkuccio:
My JPA experience.

Flashing fast and goes well.

Without reset it keeps my settings but goes really unstable.

Soft + hard reset and it goes really fast and clean.

actually

PRO :

- wifi actually works without errors or random sleep mode

- 3g works

- sms seems to work (i haven't tested it heavily btw)

- gps fixed with fasterfix and ntp.pool. blablabla

- usb mode seems to work ( i got some "ask at connection" issues with jp8)

CONS :

- i'm pretty annoyed to fix gps and cross my fingers everytime

- rooting ok only with superoneclick, but no busybox even if you install it after.

titanium backup won't work

- sometimes i feel it like choppy or laggy, may be the effect of rooting like someone suggested, but i needed to root for gps ;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] shorabh:
i think many of u knw this problem with android....

when i send long messages(sms)....it automatically converts into mms.....so i am charged if i send it.

so i want to know ....is ther any solution to this.......pls help

thanks in advance.....!!!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] deeplove:
Flashed with JPA but it has few issues so reflashed with JP9

its quite stable (not fully though)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] thinrhino:
Can you expand a bit on "it has few issues". :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
The inbuilt Messaging does not have an option to turn it off. It will always convert the message into an MMS. Best solution is to download Handcent SMS from the Market.

After installing, run Handcent SMS, go to its Settings, then to 'Send Message Settings', and untick the 'Auto-convert to MMS' option. Use Handcent SMS to send messages.

Use Handcent SMS as your default Messaging application. It's faster than the inbuilt Messaging, and also has a lot of extra options..

You can also download chompSMS if you want. Both chompSMS and Handcent are better alternatives to the inbuilt Messaging applications.

If you do use Handcent or chompSMS, turn off notifications in the settings of the inbuilt Messaging, or you'll get two notifications every time you receive a message.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:
"a few issues", you need to tell us about these issues as that quote is no good to any of us lol
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] shorabh:
@addicted 2088

thaks a lot
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] shorabh:
does froyo hav a setting option of turning off sms to mms conversion...???
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:
not that i can see
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:
Sim locked flashing

Has anyone here flashed a simlocked/branded i5801 and did u have any problems?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] shorabh:
so i think this problem should be solved in froyo.....this auto conversion is really a disaster........currently happy with handcent sms
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] JackStow:
guys, i have a little problem with those froyo versions (jp8, jp9 and jpa now)

i turn off notifications in the settings of the default message app, but i always receive notifications, and i always need to clean my list of notifications even after i read the message, it keep showing "new message" in the list.. how i disable this? ayone knows another way, cuz i turned off mt notifications and didint work
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:
I was going to ask the same, i have installed Handcent but when i receive a msg i get the msg in the default message icon as well, anyway 2 disable the default msg system completely?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
Goto messaging app -->settings-->at very bottom there is the setting Notifications.

Uncheck it and you are done.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:
That just disables the notification, it dosnt stop the message showing up on the message icon at the bottom of the screen
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
Go into the Settings of the inbuilt Messaging. There will be a Notification setting at the bottom, turn that off. It works for me.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
You'll have to remove Messaging from the bottom of the screen.

Go into Applications, click on Menu button and click Edit. Then drag the Messaging icon into the list of applications. This will empty the spot Messaging was in previously. Then drag the Handcent SMS icon into this empty spot.

Also, go into Handcent settings, then to Notification Settings, and tick Enable Pop-up if it isn't already enabled..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
discarded removed
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
Thanks man i didnt knew that :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
Yeah, you can remove everything except the Applications icon. And yeah, even I use Launcher Pro. Makes things so much easier.. :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:
Tks, I cant get delivery reports with handcent either, is this just me?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] octy:
I try to find a solution.

It seems that once the phone is flashed those applications are no longer visible on market. Did you such behaviour with other apps?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Pastorelli:
I installed Rom Manager to use it on my i5800. Rom Manager requests to install ClockworkMod Recovery first.

I am not sure wich model to choose from, Samsung Apollo i5800 is not listed in Rom Manager.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Nkrl:
After flashing from stock rom to XWJH2 i didn't have any problems to find your app. So it must be sth with the new firmware.

I have the problem only with your app but i don't use soo many apps
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mattia.b89:
i think is a good idea put in the first page the i5800/1's key combinations

PS: is possibile that with new firmware root doesn't work ? i've installed JI4 and i can't root it !
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] beigs:
Hello egilrs

I have no problem with the 3G or Edge, or other problems. The only problem is that i can't find Octy's app on the market. I have the version I5800XXJI2 and my phone is i5800.

Also I didnt make a backup of the original rom, but I wanted to update via kies in the future.

Is there any way to put the original rom and update via kies again?

Someone Help Please

Regards
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Nkrl:
@beigs:

it's a problem of the new firmwares (XXJI2 and XWJI4) that you can't find octys app in the market, but i don't know why it doesn't work.

I'm looking for a way too, to get my stock firmware back
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] egilrs:
Well thats pretty weird.

I now, also tried flashing parts of the newer firmware withouth using the phone firmware, and the problems the same. No 3G, EDGE or HDSPA :(

I really dont understand this **** .. I'm starting to regret trying a Samsung, seeing Samsungs bad software support.

Not being able to connect to internet is.. well.. Useless for me, as I'm syncing mail and contacts with this. I find this a pretty weird issue, and I've flashed my HTC's lots of times and never encountered this kind of problem. Seems extremly weird!

I'll have to test this out some more, but right now I can only choose from:

1) An unstable rom that BOOTS almost every time an SMS is received, or:

2) Have no Internet on the device, wich makes it kinda useless for me...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Nkrl:
Strange...

Did u Try XXJI2? There's a new baseband in it
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] egilrs:
Funny how we are several people looking for a way to get the stock rom back.

I'm really looking for the one my phone came with, so that I can re-update it from Kies. At least everything worked with that rom.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] egilrs:
Yeah, I tried XXJI2 as well. No difference for me.

I get GSM and recive calls and SMS, thats it.

I really cant find any 'easy' way of trying to set it up manually either.

Whats even funnier, after flashing with XWJI4 my device won't even boot!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] beigs:
Perhaps the samsung does not want us to use this application and blocked with the latest firmware. I think it's the only explanation. All others are available, why is not this?

I will also try to find a solution..

Thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] vijacdblz:
most of the gameloft games and raging thunder 2 having problem with texture....

Also many working games like mystique do lags.

I dont know whether it could be fixable.....But if you are serious about gaming do not buy that

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] TEOS19:
Are you able to root the new firmware I5800XWJI4

Hello everybody,

i've got the same problem.

I upgrade my I5800 to i5800XWJI4 and all works fine.

When i try to root my phone with the tutorial at the begining of this thread, all works fine.

No errors.

But when i want to use application (Anetshare) that need rooted phone it tells me that my phone isn't rooted.

Universal Androot says me that It can't root my phone.

Have anyone a solution ?

Thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] TEOS19:
So I downgrade to XWJH2 and root works

Perhaps there is a trouble to root XWJI4
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Nkrl:
It seems like XXJI2 AND XWJI4 are such crappy firmwares...no root, no gpsopt...samsung what are you doing?!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] slumpolo:
Mmmmh I tested the root only for JH2....

Maybe the method doesn't works with new firmware :(

Ciao
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Droiddy:
Hi i cant open the file..plz post a tutorial how u rooted the phone
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] TEOS19:
And GPSopt works fine too
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mixael:
does this phone has flash player?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mattia.b89:
in this moment not

but when it will be updated to froyo 2.2 it will have the flash player and until then we can't say if works fine...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] JackStow:
so bro, i do this, iv disabled the notifications on settings, but it still showing notifications... :confused:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:
Do u mean on the status bar at the top?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Cygnuss:
I use LauncherPro and sms popup and i have no issues (JP9)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:
What is LauncherPro?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
Handcent SMS does not show delivery reports in the status bar. To see delivery reports, open Handcent SMS, press Menu, click on More, then on Delivery Reports.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
Its just another launcher for your android devices just like the stock one TW Launcher of Galaxy series.

The only difference is level of customizations and widgets that are supported.

Launcher Pro is both in free and paid versions. The paid one will make you crazzy with so much to offer, like face book twitter widgets and alot of other stuff.

3D app drawer is also very good and which actually works gr8 on froyo than eclairs.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] thinrhino:
Same here, I am using LauncherPro Plus and Handcent SMS. No extra notifications after changing the appropriate settings in the default messaging application.

BTW, I have installed JPA firmware. Need to use it for 24 hours to know how it performs. But the Wi-Fi issue in JP9 has vanished.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Cygnuss:
check it on youtube very good app new interface UI and pretty fast one too.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
You mean to say you're getting a number on top of the Messaging icon on the bottom of the screen indicating how many unread messages you have. You'll have to remove Messaging from the bottom of the screen to disable this.

Go into Applications, click on Menu button and click Edit. Then drag the Handcent icon in the list of Applications over the Messaging icon on the bottom. The Handcent icon will replace the Messaging icon.

This should solve it..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] JackStow:
yes, the status bar on the top.. i use launcher pro also, it have some settings to change it?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
You should not get these notifications after turning them off in Messaging. Try restarting your phone and see if it works then.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] gazski:
anyone done this?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] JackStow:
i found the problem, i have an widget "beatiful widgets 2", after uninstall it, this notification disapear :D

My impressions of JPA

Here are my impressions of JPA :

1. WiFi has improved.

2. GPS still needs work.

3. Messaging keeps crashing when there are a lot of messages (7000+).

Sometimes would not even load :(

4. Still can't send more than 10 messages through Stock messaging in group. Why

you, Samsung, wants to dictate how do we use our phone. We are not paying

for a restricted device :mad:

5. Battery backup is still low (lower than JK1:()

6. Call log, Phonebook, Gallery are faster.

7. Shutdown takes time.

8. TouchWiz needs a lot of optimizations.

9. Proximity sensor needs work.

10. Can't play DivX or Xvid(avi) files. No native support for mkv files still.

11. USB Mass Storage mode gets disconnected automatically although it shows connected on phone :( This is a serious issue.

I am sure that JIT is disabled in these beta (leaked) builds.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] wesley29:
I had the Eclair firmware JH2 and thought I'd put the new Froyo JPA on. Damn phone wouldn't get recognised as connected by Odin for the first time (was fine anytime before), until I just put it in download mode from the start and it got recognised as connected and downloaded at the same time.

My problem with this firmware is that when rooting, it doesn't install busybox and therefore Titanium Backup won't run. All my apps are backed up with TB, so it is a real pain in the @ss.

The next thing that irritates me is contacts. Firstly the new way that contacts works with regards to display options, it really stinks compared to an Eclair firmare. I don't want any facebook, twitter or gmail contacts on there, but only way to do it is delete all the ones you don't want and disable contacts syncing from them in settings (or it is another bug and just displays them despit display settings). The thing is when I deleted contacts in one big lot, it did not delete them all, maybe half or less, so I had to delete each one individually that remained.

It seems very fast, great to be able to put some apps on the sd card and I like the 2 new wallpapers. I haven't been able to test gps yet, which is a major thing that needed improvement.

This morning, for some reason, the Engadget widget is missing from my homescreen and it isn't available in the add widgets menu, though it is still installed and can be accessed on app menu.

During a phonecall, call quality was good, but proximity sensor seemed to take long to show the screen once it was over. Then I tested it again and it seemed normal, so maybe inconsistent.

With this firmware, I wasn't able to see some apps in the Market, like I could with JH2. MyPlayer and z4root (which won't work either with the apk) were not there like before. Quite irritating that some apps you can tick update automatically when installing them and 80% not, so you have to do that individually for most of them.

So of course this is not a final rom, but not bad, though now some of my apps are stuck in Titanium Backup and I cannot get them out, nor find them on Android Market.

When screen goes off, using volume rocker to get it on doesn't work initially, maybe on the 2nd or 3rd click.

Linpack score 2.417 mflops
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
It should be 2.417 MFLOPS
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] panaliu7:
Guys with no busybox!!

open titanium backup, then press "problems" it will install busybox
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] wesley29:
Great tip. Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ravenious:
guys i've a problem with gps with jpa fw...anybody can help me?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] divinesahil:
confused

hi rex just wanted to know some info how do you use gps i mean we can use wifi in maps without gps and still can find our location so whats the use of gps and if we only use gps what do we get i mean cas i get data connection lost. throwing some light over it would definitely be appreciated
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
GPS is used for Navigation. Even if Maps finds your location using Wifi, when you move, GPS is what is gonna make your marker on Maps move along with you. It's what tracks you as move.

Google Maps downloads map data from the internet, that is why it needs an internet connection to work so that it can download the map of the area which you are in currently. But if you use a program such as NDrive or Sygic, you won't need an internet connection as these download the entire map of a specific country beforehand on the memory card.

So GPS is very important. :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] divinesahil:
thanks mate thats really helpful
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] deeplove:
whenever i receive call on JPA it shows black screen n call get rejected automatically.

but after reflashing JP9 it worked
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pvinodchowdary:
i kno this is a bit off topic ..but nexus s has been released....ie nothing but galaxy s free frm samsung ....which sounds good.......
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Hi Sahil and everyone,

Sorry for late reply. Was little busy :(

A phone can get location through two sources. One, through GPS and two, through Mobile network.

First about Mobile network way. Our phones work on GSM technology and is always connected to the nearest cell tower. Every few seconds our phones keep submitting our information to the nearest tower and maintains connectivity. Every tower has it's own unique id and location. Hence through a submitted information and tower id our location can be known but this is vague as towers are far off from each other. So the accuracy is limited.

In GPS technology a GPS enabled device send request to the nearest orbiting communication satellite in the space for co-ordinates of the device. Satellites send this information in form of exact co-ordinates which are then mapped on a Map and location is known or shown.

There has been a recent upgrade to the existing GPS system called A-GPS or Assisted GPS. In it along with GPS data, concerned maps data is also downloaded and location mapped.

In summary, you need GPS for accurate locations or navigation and Mobile network location for general purpose like mobile ads.

Hope it helps !

Good luck :)
