Actually these are really good results. Please note that the trees (also buildings) affect the GPS reading due to bouncing signal.

The looking ahead may be a problem with the gps software. Unless Samsung has a "smart" gps layer that give you "digested" coordinates, direction and speed from the gps chip.

GPS signal is sent every second with the exact time from an atomic clock - the chip calculates the small time diferences between the visible satellites in order to give the coordinates... (a signal from a satellite takes some time to be received - proportional to it's distance)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dvdbos:
I suppose those things:

- no 512MB ram but still 304MB?

- GPS still crappy?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Joghurtbecher:
I have the slight suspition that that's exactly whats happening. I've recorded my tracks whith google's My Tracks app and I don't think that that's doing stuff like that. I may be worng though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dutchcow:
I wonder why people still complain about that. The phone has 512MB, part of it is reserved for system usage and kernel. So you can receive phone calls and stay on the network. I allocates memory for that. It is more than normal.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] baldric:
when you delete an email in imap does it actually delete from the server?

That bug is still there for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
well i've formatted my sd cards, factory reset. flashed, formatted my sd cards and factory reset again.

all's great. 512pit re-partition checked.

started everything afresh, no backup no nothing from previous firmwares.

maybe it's my first froyo rom so i'm fascinated by it but i definitely have no browser lag, this and that that this thread has mostly stated. GPS-wise i can't test it cause the weather here is bull**** nowadays.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
some people just want the system to show 512. but still having the same old ~100mb available.

they're number-hungry.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yc1437:
Is the smartdialing in the dialler improved? Meaning that it no longer recognize only the first name?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] spyrale:
sorry to bother everyone, i do not want to complain, just wish to understand. can you explain me why galaxy tab shows more than 400 mb? it doesn't need to reserve memory for system and kernel (or gpu like somebody says)? other phones with 512 mb ram (and gpu, even if different one) boot with more than 270 mb, why galaxy s needs to reserve so much ram to the system?

anyway, i'm fine with 50 mb free ram, i'm not fine if 50 mb free ram means LAG and me always tapping on task killer.

sorry for my bad english and thanks to who will take time to answer knowing what is talking about. to everyone who thinks this is a stupid question, please, don't offend, just ignore.

peace:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yc1437:
I watching this forum from JP1 till now JPK & the complaints still there, Samsung, pls fix the issue & make us happy! By the way i still on JM8, stable so far
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vitalij:
Unfortunately music player is still not fixed. In jpk there's same problem as in other froyo firmwares: music player is very slow and leaking memory while playing flac files. Sometimes it even crashes. So I want to ask do you just listen to mp3 instead? Or use third party player? Could you suggest good player with flac support?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Maddmatt:
Over 200MB for system usage and kernel can't be right. How do you think a phone with 256MB would function then?

The RAM is being wasted somehow. One of the programmers around here pointed out that 128MB was being used for a RAM disc that didn't seem to serve any purpose (not sure I've got these details correct though)

All this has been explained before. The Galaxy Tab has 400MB of usable RAM so there is clearly something wrong here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MoWa22:
I'm using 192 kbps MP3's - I see absolutely no reason to waste space on FLAC on such a device. I'll bet my kidney that you can't hear any difference.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] android53:
After using it for about an hour:

Seems generally fast, no bad lag yet (not lagfixed)

Internet browser flash works well allthough maybe a little laggy/delayed

The internet browser generally feels a little slower then 2.1, allthough the benchmarks score higher

Gps seems fine

Quadrant: 1,000 ish

Linpack: around 14

There seems to be better error managing, if something fc's making the system unuseable it does a quick reboot

This seems stable enough to use as an everyday firmware.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cs4ever:
omg! i cant download and even see the attachments (pictures) in my email. it says fetching attachment... and thats all!

and when i take a selfpicture it doesnt turn up in the gallery...:(

such a big bugs...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yaocheng:
only for your device...

absolutely no problem here
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] celeronix:
Use this thing to fix the problem:

adb shell
su
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system

You need to do it everytime when you restart your phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] baldric:
No problems with attachments here either, only email problem is deleted emails dont delete from server.

EDIT: market bug is back and not showing me certain apps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] eRajesh:
Can I use the GPS files from JPK firmware on a JM8 firmware?

I need a PERFECTLY working GPS for god's sake Samsung!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] irkkso:
can we somehow fix it or done automatically?

can we somehow fix it or done automatically?:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jodue:
this is a feature, not a bug (for the average user). most devices have /system readonly for security reasons...

if you really want a permanently writeable system partition you can use playlogos1 for it. this may conflict with custom rom's or some lag-fixes but works well with stock. only use it when you understand what's being done here!!!

adb shell
su
mount -o remount rw /system
mv /system/bin/playlogos1 /system/bin/playlogos1_ORIGINAL
echo '#!/system/bin/sh' > /system/bin/playlogos1
echo '/system/xbin/busybox mount -o remount rw /system' >> /system/bin/playlogos1
echo '/system/bin/playlogos1_ORIGINAL' >> /system/bin/playlogos1
chmod +x /system/bin/playlogos1

Hello,

Tried to search 'timezone' but was not able to resolve the problem.

I tried to set a different timezone from +0:00 to something else. But when I shutdown and then startup my phone next time, the timezone is being reset to +0:00

Anyone has any idea on how to resolve this problem ?

My phone's status :

Flashed and rooted with JPK, didn't upgrade busybox to latest version. Everything looks fine except this.

Grateful if someone can offer help to resolve this such that I don't need to get back to JPH because of this...

Many thanks !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jodue:
hm, is there a reason for you not to use "automatic" ? ... this works great for me ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cyberz:
Hi,

966 without Clagfix, a bit better of the JPH(was960), with Clagfix apk 1834~1935, with JPH and Ryanza BETA 2-3 Clagfix was ~2100. With JM7 and Ryanza BETA, was 2307.

Regards
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] PERSONA:
Thanks for reply but tested doesn't work for me.

I also noted from previous post that another member encountered reset of locale after reboot. I just noticed that I have the same problem too.

(I already flash with 512 pit).

Edit : undo the lagfix and problem has gone...Will try changing the settings before applying lagfix to see if problem persists

I am in Indonesia, I can use AP to tether using I9000DXJF4, but now I can't use this AP using this JPK. I also aware that I can't use AP also in JPC. Maybe this is not a bug but different Firmware region.

Anyone can help me to solve this issue please... as I love using this new firmware but really need to use AP to support my IPAD life..

Thanks before

I have the same problem too.. Can't view or download files on Gmail app.. So I have to use internet browser to view attached files..

By the way, how about battery performance? I just flashed JPK from 2.1 Eclair... Eclair has outstanding battery life, but Froyo seems very bad. Does anyone know how to fix it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
Okay, after a days use this rom is still pretty snappy. Battery has been good too. No complaints, really. Samsung has done a pretty good job here! :)

Looks like it might be time to say goodbye to Eclair 2.1 :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] clubtech:
is it just me or Flash 10.1 is kinda laggy and some wesbites are causing the browser to be extremely laggy..

i compare the same website or flash video to the DroidX.

The droidX (2.2) just plays the videos smoothly and has zero lad in heavy flash website while the JPK is just lagging like crazy. like it is running out of memory.

I noticed no one else posted about this, so is it just me?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tuxing:

and if i install more than 50 app the phone still slow , especially on sliding the main menu ..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] NZtechfreak:
Upgraded my phone to the new JPK 2.2 firmware yesterday. JPK release feels extremely close to a release version everyone, its running very smooth, and I haven't had any problems yet. Enjoying Chrome to Phone (well, actually Fox To Phone), and Flash immensely, protected apps show in the Market (think Angry Birds), the new Gmail application is interesting too, the Music Player is finally perfect (no more crashes when trying to arrange by Artist), and the icing on the cake is the BT keyboard and mouse support (rather fortuitously my BT mouse also arrived in the post yesterday). I haven't yet tried the GPS. Samsung have kept their flawed RFS file system in place here, but despite 14 hours uptime now the lags haven't yet started, so whatever they've done for lagfixing is at least somewhat effective.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yaocheng:
I experienced the same problem that AP not work properly in JPK. PC can link to AP but can not acquire a IP address...

Is it just me or does the Time Zone reset itself after every phone restart ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] richardbroder:
Seems a tad faster than JPC but browsing is slower.

GPS seems to be worse than JPC, perhaps because it´s currently raining (w/ lots of thunderstorms) over here.

The compass in JPK simply does NOT work, it points me to the exact oposite direction I´m headed. Compass was perfect in JPC. And it´s really sad, since compass in JPC actually helped alot the faulty GPS system..

USB-Kies issue resolved, but now Kies won´t recognize my contacts in order for me to sync them back to the phone...

So, basically, not much diference from JPC, slightly faster, but it has bugs JPC didn´t have...

One afternoon with jpk (switching from jm7) and i'm glad. Everything is working well except the %b symbol on the lock screen when charging (but that's detail).

Froyo on our phone has some serious lack of ram issues.

300mb to start with

100mb left for apps once android is loaded

That's only enough for music player and a few internet browser tabs... you start noticing things being closed
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xan:
I've checked free space on /system partition. There seem to be a problem with /system size in JPK.

Test case:

- Fresh JPK + 512/803 .pit (both affected) by Odin

- recovery, wipe cache, hard reset

- root + 2e recovery using 'older kernel method',

- replaced tw lock with stock android lockscreen

- tried to copy custom battery icon "framework-res.apk" ->

mv /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
mv: write error: No space left on device

Got rid of it deleting some ringtones from /system/media/audio, now its:

# df
df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted o
/dev/block/stl9 282432 259360 23072 92% /system

Size difference between two is exactly:

411 356 bytes = 401.714844 kilobytes

PS: this was interesting too:

df: /mnt/.lfs: Function not implemented
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dagrim1:
When I close stuff using System panel I have 170mb remaining memory (systempanel, smart keyboard and battery status apps keep running accounting for another 30-35mb). So no problems here... Same as with JM8.

WRT need for lagfix. Restoring titanium app backups was faster with JM8+voodoo, maybe market as well, but regular use seems pretty fast in JPK. I don't feel the immediate urge to apply a lagfix. So yeah. All seems fine so far, think I might be using this JPK for a while. First Froyo version making me feel that way.

Lets see how battery use is, gps and how it holds after a few days...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vcespon:
My report after 24 hours. It's the first Froyo ROM I flash (After the problems reported with JPC, I did not flash it and did a copy of /efs before).

- Answering a post above, compass works. Use the trick reported on other threads of turning phone around several times. It works for me every time.

- GPS is not much better. Samsung needs to remove the interpolating algorithm, it does not work with abrupt changes on speed or direction (for obvious reasons).

- Email - trashcan - delete all hangs and phone vibrates. Then force close the email app. The embeded email app is really ****ty andI do not recommed it for anyone using email often.

- Daily info app much improved, something good to report.

- Less apps available on Samsung apps (nothing important for me, but why?)

- New camera app, different button layout

- As reported on other posts, radio is still mono.

- IMEI not changed, compared the one reported by the phone to the one on the label on the phone box.

- I do not have many apps, so no need for lagfix, phone works smoothly enough once you have installed everything.

- It's my imagination or the screen color is less blueish now?

- Changing the screen bightness by sliding finger on notification bar works, you have to disable auto-bightness
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] clubtech:
The browser is certainly SLOW and it was like that in JPC, JPH and JPK.

The only 2.2 it is not so slow is the HK JP2 which seems to have much better memory management.

the HK JP3 also has slow browser.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ewok666:
No, these results are actually not that good.

It is clearly the GPS software layer added in Froyo. The software I use is exactly the same. Both Copilot and GpsCompassMap show the same result.

Jm8 does not have this problem. Even in the car the track is spot on and overlaps with the one from the previous day nearly 100%.

So far GPS in Froyo is just crap.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TheChancellor:
I was initially excited to try out the JPK rom, but after running a bunch of tests, I just ain't feelin' it. At all. I went back to JM8 + Stock Eclair Voodoo and it is BY FAR the most stable rom I've had on this phone. I'm gonna keep it this way until an official Froyo is released, because these Betas are getting on my nerves. It's becoming a total waste of time to even try these out. The risk vs. reward just doesn't make it worth while.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] okpc:
yeah same here, stick with jm8 with tayumata's mod. sick off all these 2.2 betas. very happy with jm8. with mod, its fast and stable, less forced close apps...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jperez1462:
I've flashed to JPK ROM, and everything seems to be OK, with Root and OCLF I got about 2000 in Quadrant score. The only BIG problem (As some people mentioned previously) is RAM. After closing most of apps I got only 150 MB, when I open Internet browser the memory decrease about 60-100 MB, mostly if opening Web pages with Flash animations or videos, and giving a significant lag in browser, scrolling with fingers take about 1 sec slower than previous release I had (DXJG4) and zoom seems lagged.

Which is the best 2.2 release for Internet browsing experience?

Found a bug in JPK:

Now it's impossible to mute incoming call without answering or rejecting it.

In 2.1 pressing volume down once did the trick.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ettepetje:
After a day on JPK, coming from JM2, here are my findings:

- From what I can tell Launcher Pro has to restart a lot, with or without the 'Keep me in memory' option. I deduce this from the frequent massive un-provoked application launch, even after carefully tailoring settings, etc..

- The 'Tasker' utility has a big problem here with exit-tasks. It now mainly detects one when you start a new one. I presume it is because its work-around to detect one in froyo is blocked by all the system tasks being shielded off now. Tasker should be native to work well !!!

- Choosing a different font makes this forum close to unreadable. :-)

- The battery circle mod is neat!

- Serious lag at times, part of it related to over aggressive memory mamagement kicking out Launcher Pro and such.

- A couple of great additions in froyo which I would hate to lose (like maps for favorites, which you would think should have been present in android 1.0)

- Angry Birds beta1 backup didn't work, installing beta2 from the market solved that.

- Afaik I made a complete backup with Titanium but couldn't fix the Market ('My downloads'). Maybe it is in the system data (that I didn't recover). Eris his tool also didn't help, as far as I could tell.

That's it for now..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] PERSONA:
Did you apply lagfix before you changed the timezone to your preferred one ?

I once have this problem, but I found that it no longer happens after I undo the lagfix.

Then I did everything again (reflash) and this time I changed the timezone and set locale before I apply lagfix. Then I no longer encountering this anymore.

OK> HTC just managed to get it out for DEsire now when it was launched almost 2-3 months prior to SGS and they had it easier given it was already ported to N1.

For other changelog:

- Keyboard is laggy

- Battery life is AWESOME> Best I have ever got in any firmware. Phone running only when screen is on. Excellent move.

- Exchange Calendar not syncing.

- Mail Reply is working.

-Wi-fi kinda better to connect but still not perfect. Have to use Statis IP sometimes. It is unable to get IP address when all other devices can .

- Froyo doesnt need a lag fix and same with this one.
