I agree. A lot of things are wrong right now. And I'm sure JPC will fix some and worsen others..

I think this battery problem of dropping from 50 to 15 and then back to 50 after connecting the charger is back in JPB..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] baklavoni:
You can search for such app on market if it exist.

But for GT-i5800 that app will not work... you need to have backlited buttons, which is not on i5800 :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
I just opened up Market on Wifi, and it was updated to the new one in the background while the packet data connection was active earlier! That was pretty fast..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pvinodchowdary:
problems so far i observed on jpb.....

whn i am on call..i hear some strange beep lik sound(hard to explain but its irritating)

the phone suddenly freezes for a while n becomes normal....atleast twice a day...

for me wifi is working fine...though im constantly on one network...

tw launcher sucks as usual...... still lags(though im using lancher pro)

gps doeest work good em using octys app to fix it....
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
Yeah, that call problem is irritating. Makes it hard to understand sometimes what the person at the other end is saying.

I got Froyo to work on my phone after flashing it with the stock rom and then the froyo one. I used superoneclick to root it. Now my question is.. how do I install live wallpapers? :D
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] abhi0n0nakul:
are you mad.??

have you ever used the android top dogs?? nexus one or desire...

i m sure no, thats why you are saying this....

even in jpb if battery lasts 1 day and the worst backup, yet it still is the best battery backup "android " phone on the market....

take note that i have mentioned android, not to compare from feature phones.....

my nexus one 2.2, i charged it 3 times a day.. now what you have to say??

Put i5800 firmware JH2 on it, guaranteed to have great battery life and lots more space to install your own apps with all the Orange junk removed.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
Yeah, even the HTC Desire is said to have very bad battery life and has to be charged everyday. Even the Galaxy S runs only a day. The Galaxy 3 can run for 2 days, which is more than those high end devices with the same battery.

Well, they are beta/leaked release. You should not expect much (But well, they work pretty well). And yes, we are beta testers (And YES, that sucks :) ).

This won't work. The problem is not exactly a beep, but it's like the call mutes and unmutes for a fraction of a second every 3-4 seconds.

Can we use kies to upgrade to froyo 2.2 with the official release or we need to use ODIN only, if the phone is rooted? if both can be used then which one is safe and easier to use?

I have unrooted my phone with z4root. Now will i be able to get OTA updates. ? Nd will my warranty be valid now? After unrooting also m able to use live wallpapers, is this means my phone is not unrooted properly?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] panaliu7:
I dont know how you use the phone, but even if i play game for 5 hours a day, it lasts more than a day.

Perhaps you should try rebooting? it helps mine, especially when it drops quickly from 50~60 to 15%
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mobile9999:
Actually i had problem draining the battery when it was 15%. :D Every month i will try to drain the battery completely empty, such that it will off itself ( part of battery maint). This time , with battery status at 15%, i on gps, bluetooth, wifi, running video, and have to run it for almost 2 hours before it is really zero, nil. ;)

I think sometimes we do forget that this galaxy 3 is not a high end product , and we are NOT paying lots of money like galaxy S etc. I don't load it with tonnes of apps and expect it to run at lightning speed ( why do people wanted to run firewall or openVPN on such a small device, don't they strain their eyes?? :confused: )

Use it reasonably. ;)

Is it possible to Download apps from market to PC directly or say access Market from PC to download apps.. :|
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] shajumohamed:
Finally rooted and on JPB. Hey did any one try the new market. Is it working?

A doubt about titanium backup.isnt it supposed to save the market links of apps?we are supposed to see the restored apps in the downloads page of market. right? It doesnt work for me i had to redownload the apps from market to make them visible in the download page.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
Rooting simply enables you to put in the system files required to make Live Wallpapers work. Un rooting will not let you access the system files anymore, but the files you already put in the system drive will still remain. Just don't keep a live wallpaper active when you give the mobile to a service center, and they won't know. :)

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] p_san_p:
Thanks for reply. Now it means if i m giving the mobile to the service center, i will have to make sure that the files which i hav put in the system directory to make live wallpaper work, shud not be thr anymore.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
Not really. Just don't keep a live wallpaper active when you give it for servicing. They are not gonna check inside the system files whether you've put in files to enable Live Wallpapers or not. They just shouldn't see Superuser in the Applications list.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] p_san_p:
Now my phone is unrooted is this means that, the froyo firware will automatically install in my phone( when samsung will release it for GT I5801) via OTA updates or still i have to install it manualy using Kies.? Second thing after upgrade, the apps installed in the phone will be thr or i have to install them again.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] p_san_p:
But they can check in the wallpapers section nd ther an option to select the live wallpaper is coming :-).

If an Iphone can reach 1 day, G3 minimally should reach 3 days or more with the same usage, but Apple at least can write proper software with proper drivers.

Samsung can't...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] phoztek:
Hi all,

I have sucessefuly installed JPB. After trying 3 times.

First attempt -> Some icons were missing in the menus

Second attempt -> All icons but once i reboot it the system alted.

Third attempt -> Everything went ok.

Just one thing, i've tried to use websites that require flash 10.1 and it keeps saying that i need to have it installed.

Went to Adobe website and i cant get in the download page of flahs... keeps giving an error " Not able to find the requested file "

I've tried to download an apk for Android 2.2 that installs flash 10.1 to see if it would solve the problem ... can't install it.

Any info on this ???

Cheers

PS: I live in Portugal and i know that one of the providers here which is TMN is already distrubuting an upgrade 2.1 to 2.2 to their I5800 phones.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] phoztek:
Hi all ... again.

Just an update... probably not the best place to put this info.

I've contacted Samsung Portugal regarding an Official realase of 2.2 for I5800.

Here is the translated answer.

So this can only mean 3 things.

1 - There will never be an official update from samsung.

2 - There will a 2.1 update with some other funcionalities

3 - We are getting 2.3 on I5800

I have sent them another email asking them what was that answer supposed to be. If we were getting 2.3 instead.

Lets wait.

Cheers

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] panaliu7:
I doubt that it will last 3 days. But it is not samsung that writes the software, the os is android, and it isn't from samsung is it? If it was, it should probably be worse.

Apple has been producing computers since decades ago. Even apple is faster than windows with lower hardware specs.

My point it that our phone lasts longer than iphone... ;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] addicted2088:
You're right. My phone has lasted for 2 days and 21 hours max, although that was on a stock DDJG6 Eclair ROM. But even on Froyo, a day and a half is the minimum I get.

And yeah, Android has always been criticized for having bad battery management, which is something Google has tried to improve in Gingerbread. So everyone cursing Samsung over it should stop doing it. It's Google's fault, not Samsung's..

BackFireNL's method : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8215848&postcount=112

gone through this thread found can update to froyo by flashing I5800 firmware.. need to which firm ware use to flash.. need a simple steps.. thanks in advance..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Szaby59:
With XXJI2 it will last 4-5 days, with wifi, mobile data, music...

Android has bad power management = yes, that's why you need to use taskkiler to disable keeping unwanted apps in memory like Samsung apps, Swype, Daily briefing, Browser...

So, if XXJI2 can reach 4-5 days, but other firmwares only 2, tops 3, the problem is with the drivers, not just the Android OS.

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] toondewachter:
If I were you I'd stick to JPA for at least till a new firmware comes. I know it's got flaws, but at least it won't drain your battery as hard as JPB and your calls are not interupted every 4 secs.

If you are not from Europe, 3G is not going to work, so I hope you are, cause it's got something to do with a different bandwith, since it's a European firmware.

Otherwise I would suggest trying the flashing again. Perhaps you will have better luck this time.

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] toondewachter:
Congrats! I'm surprised that you can actually use this firmware, but well, good for you... I heard about troubles with these firmwares from American people.

Now over 12 hours of battery life is not exactly what I call a good battery life. Mine goes over 24h, but used to last 3 to 4 days in JPA. See what I mean?

the thing that also works for a froyo updates i5800 with the gps issue is the following.

I don't know a way to copy from another phone - for the i5800, but I think you can try JG8 too, it will be an update from where you come from ;)

Unfortunately Froyo roms are European roms only for now, but as people said, it doesn't hurt to try. Samfirmware explicitly warns American owner's not to flash because of issues like 3G, not being able to make calls, etc. But some Americans succesfully flashed apparantly. Just be patient, it's still in beta anyway and we do notice the bugs! :D

Recovery mode for i5800/i5801

Vol down and centre button and power button pressed together while the phone is OFF!

If not working then pls try the following steps:

1) take out your phone battery, reinsert it and then try to go to download mode

If stii not working:

1)take out battery

2)connect your phone to pc using data cable

3)press the required buttons fr download mode

4)At the same time insert the battery

Hi all,

To start, I'd like to tell that I'm a real noob - and my english isn't very good ;) ...

I read your gps fix, and I rooted my i5800 using z4root. I created the gps.conf file and placed it in /sdcard.

But I don't understand how I have to put the file in /system/ect. You told us to use ADB -and yes I'm ashamed to ask :D - but I don't know what it is, and how I can use it. Are there easier ways to do this, or can someone tell me how to use it?

I use an app called "Root Explorer", you can move files around when using this, open root explorer and the go to sdcard, when you see the file you want to move just press the file for a couple of seconds and it will give you choices of what you want to do, just pick move and then open the file that you want to move it to and paste
