Hello, i have a samsung galaxy and my girlfriend has a blackberry curve. She gets all of my txt msgs but i dont get all of hers sometimes. Anyone know the problem?
[Vibrant General] MacGuy2006:
Funny, I was just told by someone on Verizon that they didn't get my text tonight. It's happened before, and not with just this person.

I would think it's T-Mobile network-related and not an issue with the phone, though.
[Vibrant General] dmolition:
Same thing has been happening this weekend, I also have no been able to access the internet 95% of the time but I am guessing tmobile is doing some network maintenance or something since I am not the only some friends are having problems with the internet/texts.

I live in dallas, texas btw.
[Vibrant General] gunks:
Yeah, I am having problems with receiving texts. A couple of times I have gotten a batch of texts at the exact time in the middle of the night. No idea if it's the other phone or mine. (Btw this is only one other person/phone this has happened from, Blackberry.)
[Vibrant General] jamesey10:
My text reception is wonky here in Los Angeles. My gf sent me 5 texts yesterday. I received 2 this morning, and the other 3 are still in limbo.
[Vibrant General] Fancypost:
I get this too, got it on my G1 as well, so I take all my texts through my google voice number now. The weird thing is, unless all my friends are systematically lying to drive me insane, I am still not getting every text.
[Vibrant General] d_bot:
had that issue all day yesterday. I just got 8 messages this morning, that i missed from yesterday. I thought it was just the rom i was running.
[Vibrant General] 18.4009:
Same issue in Boise, Idaho. Kind of funny because a bunch of texting I did yesterday with some friends didn't go through and then at 5:30 this morning they got a bunch of texts from me and I got all the ones they sent...

T-mobile is having issues I am thinking lol
[Vibrant General] jcpremutico:
My girlfriend has been having the same problem but it's been happening ever since we bought the phone in July. There would be times of the day where she couldn't send/receive messages and then hours/days later receive batches of messages (sometimes up to 30 in a matter of 5 minutes) from previous days.

She'll also receive a voicemail alert without the phone even ringing atleast twice a day even with full reception.

Just hoping the update will correct these problems because we really do like this phone
[Vibrant General] ags29:
+1 on issue. I'm not getting some texts from a tmobile blackberry. Another thing, this happened only once so far but one text I received it duplicated 5 times.
[Vibrant General] Viper717:
I've been having this same problem with my girlfriend.I'm in Canada I'm on the bell network and she's on rogers. Its not only this phone though it did this when I had my iphone aswell. I'm thinking its more a network issue than a device issue. She has an iphone 4, and it did the same thing previously when she had her iphone 3g.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibizaGTi:
Hey guys.

I know this has probably been asked/answered a million times before, but hopefully you can understand me wanting a final confirmation before i risk my £500 phone...I have done a lot of reading around this subject, and and *think* i have my head around the most of it now.

Sorry for the block of text, I have put my actual questions in blue to make them a little easier to spot.

So I have the 16GB Galaxy S from Vodafone UK. It is currently completely stock (not even rooted), and is running the JF3 firmware. The details of the phone are:

PDA: I9000XXJF3

Phone: I9000XXJF3

CSC: I9000VODJE4

The phone is unbranded, and will accept an o2 SIM, so I assume it is SIM unlocked.

I am wanting to try out Froyo on my device, and think the JM8 build is going to be the most appropriate.

Do I need to root/backup anything on my phone first? (I am fine with losing apps etc, and would rather reinstall from scratch anyway).

I have signed up to SamFirmwares, and have downloaded the file GT-I9000_I9000XWJM8_I9000XXJM4_CODE-MODEM, which I believe is the right firmware for my phone and region. I have also downloaded the s1_odin_20100512.pit file, which i *think* is the right one.

I also got the CSC_I9000OXAJM1.tar.md5 file which i think should be the right one. I also have Odin3 v1.3.

Can someone please just confirm these are the correct files for me?

So, all I need to do is:

- Start ODIN.

- Put my phone into download mode.

- Select the Re-Partition box, and make sure Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are checked.

-Select the CODE file in the PDA box, and the Modem file in the PHONE box.

- Put the CSC_I9000OXAJM1.tar.md5 in the CSC box.

- Press Start.

Am I right to think my phone will now flash?

What are the likely-hood of me bricking/destroying my phone if I follow this procedure?

Again, I'm sorry that you have probably answered these questions a hundred times before, but hopefully you can understand why I want to be sure I'm doing this right :).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ickyboo:
Before you do anything please check if you CAN access download mode. If you can then its all GOOD! you are spot on and I congrats you on doing your research as many don't. Also PLEASE don't install the Froyo Betas as you can see for yourself (JPH/JP3) that theres ALOT of problems on it especially if you don't know much about flashing. Just wait another week or less for OFFICIAL FROYO as if something does go wrong we can actually get support from Samsung as its OFFICIAL.

Also NO you do not need to root your phone. You can do that if you choose to afterwards with a rom update/custom mod. Or just download the samsung root app from market :) rooting is very painless.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewluecke:
JM8 is NOT froyo.. It's eclair... (JP# is the currently designated Froyo series, but I suspect the designators may change after it becomes stable to the per-month thing)...

Honestly, at this point of time though, it isn't worth it. Samsung seems to have backported the highmem patch to eclair anyway, and Froyo isn't yet stable. Furthermore, there are reports of people's imei getting corrupted (which is fine if you back up /efs maybe, but it still isn't a safe operation).

Honestly, unless you have a need for the new API's, just wait until it's released (it's expected by the end of the month). And then, to be uber safe, use kies to upgrade.

Although, at this point of time, you should probably upgrade your firmware to a newer version of eclair anyway (using kies), because JF3 is ancient, and plenty of problems were fixed in August.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibizaGTi:
Thanks for the advice guys. I thought JM8 was a Froyo release. After researching more tonight, it seems the JP releases are less than stable at the minute, so i'll stay away from them and wait for the official release.

I updated my firmware via Kies this morning, and am now running:

PDA: I9000BUJM4

Phone: I9000BUJM3

CSC: I9000GVODJM3

The system seems to be running pretty much the same as before. There is no lag etc and it all runs smooth enough.

The only problem I have is that the software updated has now filled my phone with Vodafone branding. It has the Vodafone start screen, and loads of crappy Voda apps on it.

Is there a way I can remove these? or at least make sure I get a "clean" upgrade with the next software update (would removing the SIM before updating work?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ickyboo:
You COULD root your phone and use Titanium Backup to remove the apps you don't want. But in all honesty I say get the latest official rom that your provider has. Be it the old JF3 as when Froyo comes out and you do (fingers cross) get a problem you can get actual support. This moment in time I would recommend you do nothing but go back to JF3 and wait for Froyo. But its your device so upto you

i heard that the HTC Evos battery can fit in a HTC incredible. is this true, and how much extra battery life would i get from it? i am thinking of buying an Evo battery just so i can get more battery life in my incredible with out having to use an extended back door.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] Berzerker7:
It does fit, and it's a pretty tight fit, but it does fit, and adds another 200 mAh of battery life going from 1300 mAh to 1500 mAh, so it's about another 15% more battery life.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] ballerchris33:
It makes more sense to get the Seidio Innocell 1750 mAh Battery. Its the same size of the incredible battery with longer battery life. Below is the Amazon link:

true, but i dont trust third party accessories, even if it is larger i would rather have the official version just because i trust HTC much more then i trust seidio
[Droid Incredible Accessories] blakestiffler:
I have the seidio 1750. Not impressed at all. I think its a bit of a scam
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mihneagabriel:
If you guys do some research you'll read that the 1750 is really as good as 1500, and the 1500 fit perfectly for me. You can get the oem one on ebay for $15 shipped, I've posted the link like 15 times, its in the other 15 battery threads

2 Batteries + Battery Charger (w/USB) about $10

The biggest complaint I have (as do most of you) with your delicious Incredible is the battery life. I searched high and low - even tempted to turn my slim inc into a thick deck of cards with an extended battery. I didn't do it - I couldn't do it. So, being the gambling man I am, I jumped on ebay and ordered the 2 battery + battery charger for about $10 (shipped from China). I've used them now for a couple of weeks and couldn't be happier. No longer am I worried about when I'm going to be able to get some direct juice. I'm just swapping batteries! They seem to run cool and are rated at 1500 mAh (150 more than original). I'm so happy with them that I'm going to order another set or two. At that price I can't pass it up!!! ebay search incredible battery and you'll see the love.

P.S. I told one of my inc pals about it and he ordered too - he got the red batteries with the android logo on it - BEWARE OF THESE - They bump out of the back a bit too much and now his back case won't secure 100%. Anyway...you can thank me later.:cool:
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mihneagabriel:
Although many people are tempted to buy those I personally wouldn't. There are enough stories on here about people buying those batteries and chargers and not ending good. Most stories start like yours but end with well after a month the batteries last less than the oem which is 200 less. The htc 1500 batteries should fit perfect without the back bulging. I recommend you buy the oem 1500 battery off ebay for $15, that'd what most people use.

You have to think a little $10 shipped for 2 batteries and a charger? That'd like the 32gb micro sd cards for $15
[Droid Incredible Accessories] gbishop18:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Quiksilver78:
Now aside from perhaps entering automatically any APN settings to your phone, rather than doing it manually.

What actual advantage is there to change/select the correct CSC? I've flashed JM7 and JM8 and I never changed the product code, which I think puts you on KOR as the default, and never encountered any noticeable advantage or disadvantage in running the phone as such.

All I had to do was to enter "internet" under APN and my 3G connection was restored.

Is there anything to gain by choosing the right CSC for your provider/country?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pramods:
Have a look at the csc files, there are application specific to the Country/Region too, some settings are also there for region, mostly the GSM 3G frequency is also set from the CSC setting, even the GPS settings are also there.

These files are not jsut operator and APN they are more than that!!

so is there any noticable difference by choosing a CSC designated for your region/telco? signal strength and GPS tracking in particular.

'cause froyo is (HOPEFULLY) 3 days away and y'know. lazy to reconfigure stuff all over again. lol. thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Quiksilver78:
I'll give it a whirl I guess, but I haven't noticed any 'disadvantages' by not using the specific CSC for my provider/region.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bloodrider:
No problem, just give me some time ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bloodrider:
If you have a wrong product code, you won't have the correct firmware via Kies.

For the sale code, it depends on the country, some may not have many information to configure. But it's as pramods said, and it also configure your language, your GMT, SOS numbers, specific aplications for your country or mobile operator,...

For example, if I'm not mistake the Bell SGS are from Canada, right? If you upgrade them to JPC or JPH it seems they may not work well cause they need a frequency adjust, automatically available on CSC ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] celeronix:
I agree that this method changes Sales code, but I'm quite sure that it does not change your Product code, because I've tried several times. For example yesterday I flased JPH which totally screwed up my .nv_data.bak files (hopefully I have them on my PC), then I went back to JM8 which is a lot better firmware. I had to change my Product code by myself, overwriting my .bak files with the original ones, and deleting nv_data.bin files :) Even when I had my original .bak files, your method via adb shell didn't change my Product code :) only Sales code :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bloodrider:
criskelo, there you have your CSC folders. I made for the two mobile operators. The Sasktell CSC didn't have the apps, as they seem equal to the Bell apps, I ad them to the Sasktell CSC.

The CSC file you provided me seemed modified, so I may overlooked something, warn me if there's any problem ;)

STATUS: Canada added
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bloodrider:
I have a Portuguese friend that used my method and he said that everything went OK...

I'm thinking the only different thing I did was editing the mps_code.dat, but I though it didn't had interfered/helped in the process.

I will ad this as a first step, it won't do any warm, that way someone who tries can tell us if that step is really needed.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] celeronix:
Probably it's gonna work that way - with editing mps_code.dat, otherwise it won't change your Product code, because it does not interfere with nv_data.bin files in any way :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bloodrider:
Editing the mps_code.dat will change the nv_data.bin too?

My nv_data.bin was KOR and after this CSC process it changed back to the original.

The system after the change on mps_code.dat needs a reboot to alter the nv_data.bin? As it's strange I though it was this CSC procedure that corrected the issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] criskelo:
Thank you very much

I'll test as soon as the method

then comment

:)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] celeronix:
No, I'm not sure about this at all :) I'm sure for one thing - CSC procedure can't change nv_data.bin :rolleyes: It may read some data from this file, but it surely doesn't write anything in it.

For what I've seen they're identical, they've minor changes.

I suppose they're "versioned" so they can be aplyed in the flash process.

But all this are suppositions!

No, only if you follow the procedure on the first post.

Added, you can download them on the first post ;)

The purpose of this method is to automatize that changes, you can do them manually but takes more time (and you'll have to be aware of the information about your network operator between others).

Editing .xml and .dat files won't be enough, there are files that are changed by this procedure outside the /system/CSC.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] reb73:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Val3r10:
Thanks for your answer.

I'm trying a workaround, in the meantime the "holy froyo graal" will be released...

Btw, I need some confirmation.

If I change my CSC, since then I'm always downloading from Kies the NEW code version, won't I ?

As you can see in my sign, I have XEH and would get ITV

At the moment I can't, as even registry-fixing the salescode, I get a mismatch error in Kies.

If I change, then I should be able to get the ITV version from Kies, for instance by enforcing downgrade from JM2 to JF3 and reinstalling the JM2 ITV.

So I'm going to get the fully original ITV CSC for JM2, now ... For JPxx in the future

Is this correct ?

Thanks a lot again

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Richthofen:
No more need to access preconfing manually (via ADB).

Managed to find the new access code for firmwares with compile date of >9/2010.

When using Multi CSCs the variant / product code will be set to a default value, which usually is "KOR" (Test).

Even when using the correct CSC the phone will not use correct settings (e.g APN) for your region until you set the correct variant / product code manually from Preconfiguration menu.

Previously Samsung used code *#272*HHMM# (HH being hour and MM minute, = current time) to access the Preconfiguration menu.

The access code was then changed and all firmwares dated to september (or newer) were using it. Since the new access code was unknown, the only way to chance the variant / product code was launching the Preconfiguration manually via ADB.

I finally found some time to take a look at it and now I managed to find the new access code:

You need to have your IMEI code in hand, so either take the sales package or type *#06# to the dialer (to check the IMEI, write it down).

Then type *#272*

???????????????

# to the dialer.

??????????????? is your IMEI code, it is always 15 digits long.

Select the desired variant / product code from the list and press install.

After the reboot you are all set.

THIS IS NOT REQUIRED WHEN USING A SINGLE CSC (I.E SINGLE VARIANT, E.G XEE).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bloodrider:
Yes, it's possible. But don't expect many changes from XEFJM1 to XEFJM2.

Yes, I think it's correct, this should "foul" Kies. If it doesn't work, uninstall and install again Kies so the product code on the registry is updated.

No.

You'll need to uninstall some system applications (you can do this with SGS Tools) or apply a smaller CSC. If needed I can supply the unbranded version of XSP that will be much more smaller.

I 'll add this to the first post, thanks for the info!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Val3r10:
Will this wipe almost anything (including the internal /sdcard data) as the previous *#272*HHMM# did ?

Does this work even on 2.1 firmware like JMx ?
