Guys no replies?

Pls help me out
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
So I need some clarification...

I just purchased a Telus Galaxy 3 Apollo. These model numbers and naming schemes are pretty ****ing confusing.

When I boot the phone, it shows "GT-I5800L"

In "About phone" it shows:

Model: GT-I5800L

Baseband Version: I5800LTLJI1

Does this mean I5800LVIJG8 (Latest America) should work for this phone? Or because it's not a "5800" phone, it won't? I'm getting pretty annoyed at Samsung for releasing similar phones with so many different names/model numbers. It's really annoying.

Thanks guys

Any solutions ???

P.S. Can we install apps2SD on our phone ? If yes, how ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] PlayPlus:
I sometimes get a noticable lag while downloading apps, but that happenes randomly. Last night I wanted to download one app, but the download never started, until today morning, when I switched on my phone again. But in the noon, I could instantly download and install another app..

apps2SD requires Froyo. From what I know, its not possible with Eclair.

Over at Gsmarena, some guy was claiming that he was installed Froyo on i5801, but might just be bluffing, as he hasnt reveled HOW even after many members repeatedly asking him..

the problem is that my phone needed the datafs.rfs that is not inside the new firmware I put that file in the firmware and now it is working

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] bioniclizard:
Hi again! First of all, what's the difference between JI2 and JI4? And want copy protected apps to work, so I guess I can't install JI4 because the root fails, is that right?

I have JI2 installed now, and was updating Twitter for Android but it just hangs on "installing"! I already deleted the cache from Market, rebooted the phone, uninstalled Twitter from Settings - Applications but it isn't working! I can't cancel the install, even though the progress bar is on top of the stars from the ratings and the FREE sign, and Twitter is mixed with the other installed apps. I hope I was clear. What can I do? :(

Hello octy,

many pages back you wrote:

Unfortunately, nothing works. Your apps do not show up when I open the Market. I can see them in Androidzoom, but the QR code and the download link (via e-mail) do not get results either.

FYI, I'm in Austria. The phone is a 5801 with an Orange SIM card. It is not rooted nor flashed. In fact, I haven't done anything to it my mother wouldn't be able to accomplish :)

I'd be glad if you could find time for a reply.

Hello, I bricked my I5800, please help me.

I rooted the phone, and worked. When I flashed a newest rom (I5800XWJI4)to the phone, it's stopped after the animated Samsung screen.

The 3 button download mode works.

I try the I5800XXJI2 firmware too, but the result similar.

I use odin v4.252, and a firmwares from samfirmware.com
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pravarthegreatest:
Hey friends

I think we all should send emails and contact Samsung and let them know about the battery problem and the GPS problem we all are facing so that they release a firmware upgrade for Galaxy 3 GT-I5801 as soon as possible and rectify the problem.That's the only solution at the moment.I am definitely sending a mail to Samsung and hope others also do the same.

I found the same problem

samsungfirmwareworld. com/galaxy-apollo-gt-i5800-lost-internal-memory-t1248.html

You need to have it in the tar file."

But i can't understand what file is this, and where i can take it.

There is no same file in firmware folder...

Please, help me

Rooted XWJI4/XXJI2

Hi, if anybody cares I've rooted XWJI4/XXJI2. Since update.zip root method from the first post didn't work for me (su didn't have setuid root permissions), I've used variant of RageAgainstTheCage method. Simply search for rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin, put it into /data/local/tmp, chmod 755 on it, run it, wait a minute or two, logout, kill adb server, relogin and you have root (although only temporarily).

It's even more easy from that moment on: just remount root read-write (mount -o remount,rw ... /system) , chmod 4755 on /system/bin/su, install Superuser.apk, etc. Then mkdir /system/xbin, put busybox (for instance download stericsson busybox app and use busybox from /sdcard) there and do an usual /system/xbin/busybox --install -s /system/xbin

If necessary, I can write all of this step by step for newcomers.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] NiceCarpet:
Has anyone actually had a reply from Samsung saying that we're getting 2.2 at some stage? I know I've seen a few that say we're not getting it.

They won't reply on Twitter about it, either.

Good work.

Please convert it into an easy tutorial.

Thanks......
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] PlayPlus:
Where have you seen the reply where they said i5800 / i5801 users are NOT getting the FroYo update? GSMArena still lists "upgradable to v2.2".

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
That was really cool, helpful and simple.

Thank you buddy !

Edit :

My phone is not detecting USB connection. It does not ask me on USB connection and phone is not detected on Windows (but in Linux 'lsusb' shows it), only battery starts charging :(

What to do ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] dkorunic:
When you connect it in Linux, can you check dmesg (type in any terminal) and see what you get at the very end? If it complains on disabling the usb hub, that might be USB driver which went berserk on phone. I had that once and I fixed it with reflashing latest ROM. I will look into it closer if I manage to reproduce it..

Is it possible to remove tw launcher n replace it with other?? If yes how..?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] PlayPlus:
^There are couple of theme replacers in the market..Launcher Pro, ADWLauncher etc. They modify / replace the default TWLauncher behavior..Be sure to also download "Home Switcher" app alongwith these.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] PlayPlus:
Did you try uninstalling n reinstalling Samsung USB phone drivers on Windows? In my case, Kies detects i5801 ONLY after a fresh install of drivers! It always works as mass storage device, tho.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pvinodchowdary:
i kno ..i do use launcher pro plus....but what i meant was i want to completely remove the tw launcher from phone internally..n replance my launcher ..not by traditionally
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] dkorunic:
Yup. Actually, LauncherPro works quite well on Galaxy3, but be sure to choose very low memory usage preset, as well as turn on "lock in memory" setting.

Anyway, I don't think home switcher is really needed -- when on 2.1 and 2.2 devices when you hit home button on homescreen you get choice between all launchers that are installed..

Market Enabler?

Since there seems to be no other way for me to get GPS Booster: Does anybody know if the Market Enabler works with the I5801? Does the phone have to be rooted for the Enabler to work?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] dkorunic:
Try MarketAccess, it's a complete rewrite of MarketEnabler and without ads. However, protected apps don't show on Market on last few ROMs, I think.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Thanks friend :-)

I am thinking to try a hard-reset first before flashing but its a hassle seeing all the amount of apps installed and customizations carried out :(

Could you plz convert the Live Wallpaper commands in a script that could be executed directly on the phone. Its a pain to type those commands on phone when adb is not working (in current scenario).

Thanks for helping me.......
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
What exactly does this setting do ?

Yeah even I use very low memory preset and its working beautifully. Had some major issues on JI4 ROM but DDJG6 is the best I have tried so far which currently I am using :-)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
No doubt Opera Mini.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] dkorunic:
This keeps launcher in memory at all times if possible, at the expense of having slightly memory (more on this) in case of need. However, this rather helps for all launchers on low-memory Android devices, IMHO.

Stuck in rooting

Hi all,

I'm stuck at the point number 4, for rooting my i5800 (XWJI4):

i.e. I push the exploit on the phone, execute it, then after

adb shell

I sadly don't get the "#" supercow powers prompt, but only the mere mortal "$", and then I can't obviously go on ..

I tried to restart from point 4 many times, i.e. resending the exploit and running it, without luck ...

Any hint on that?

Thanks in advance,

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ElliotJH:
You still need to be root. push to /sdcard then cat /sdcard/FILENAMEGOESHERE > /system/bin/FILENAMEGOESHERE

On another note, can people who got their IMEI wiped by ODIN or the update.zip method post their network/country info? If we can figure this out then we can get more accurate warnings to people (and it'll help me figure out whether its worth the risk of actually flashing this thing).

Oh and for those who want rw system filesystem access and ran into trouble with the mount command use:

The busybox bit gets around the fact that the sh you get from adb shell doesn't have a mount command.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] davidmat86:
Indeed -> Also check this article from a samfirmware: they got an update roadmap from Samsung Benelux clearly indicating a froyo update for the i5800. And since it's mentioned in one breath with the Galaxy S update... there is hope :D:D

- I purchased my i5801 (can tell by the looks & it's on the box) from Mobistar (Belgian Orange)

- and it came loaded with the i5800 firmware! (version I5800XWJG6)

This may not come as a surprise, but kind of proof that both phone firmwares are fully interchangeable :)

Hi all!

I just bought a new Samsung Galaxy 3 phone a few days ago in Thailand.

I have a question though -

My phone information says that my model number is "I5801", my build number is "I5801DXJG5".

But looking at the last firmwares list I see that this firmware does not belong to the I5801 model but to the I5800 model..

So i'm confused, if i want to flash my phone with another firmware - should I use the I5801 firmwares (such as the I5800BOJH1) or should I use the I5800 firmwares (such as the I5801DDJG6)?

Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jibeesh619:
Use any firmware that you like man...

My i5801 came with DDJG6

But now I'm using JI2

Nothing will happen

I recommend you to use JI2 or JH1

Copy protection is a tool that

prevents casual user-to-user pirating of applications.

may be digital signatures or something to prevent copying of apps

It's very strange, now the I5800 shows me 80%, so the phone indicates me just a level and not he exact battery level
