I'm asking myself.. they tested the firmware before releasing it?

It's just not acceptable. I will try the browser fix after supercurio release it's voodoo lag fix.

Btw, someone posted that the *memory issue* is not resolved by copying the Tab's file..

Samsung Launcher is really good (in terms of usability). Before that I was a fan of Launcher Pro. With SGS launcher you can easily remove apps, sort the way you want, move a page (even with apps) in the position you want, etc..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mirceal:
I don't know if the number of aplications is the issue. But the phone has issues running most of them! It's simply not optimized/tested for running lots of applications.

Now I'm running jm9 and it's nearly perfect. When I'm going to 2.2 jpm it's becoming fully laggy....

I'm a havy Exchange user with more than 100 daily emails. In 2.2 it's nearly impossible to use it.....

My conclusion is that Samsung doesn't care at all about their customers, they don't care about our complaints and they don't want to invest seriously in Android 2.2 optimization. They are continously advertise Galaxy S as their most powerfull phone without pay the price: optimizing the powerfull hardware to Android 2.2.

It's only about money and customer respect here!

Now that VDF Romania is selling officialy iPhone 4.0 I'll go to buy it. There, the relation between quality, price and customer respect has normal values.

Thanks

Its funny reading these posts, because the other day I flashed to jpk (haven't touched jpm yet, I'll wait for the bell release), installed all my apps I use (about 30), and didn't bother to root or lagfix.

Other than the occasional slowdown changing orientation when rotating in music player, the thing is extremely snappy. Running 2.1, I used to use adv. task killer all the time to close apps, and the phone chunked around. I firmly believe now that the phone is more than capable of managing its own memory, so I just leave it alone, and am rewarded with great performance.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ardll:
Must admit, I really did slate this phone badly because I know it has issues, I'm about as critical as it gets when it comes to tech devices but I must say I have actually noticed a massive improvement to the GPS in my galaxy s after i updated to JM1. On the ROM that it came with (I'm assuming it must have been the first one) it WAS literally unusable.

With regards to the lag thing - it's touch wiz that causes this IMO. I mean, it's called touchwiz for goodness sake. Wiz means 'wee (piss) ;)' where I come from so... 'touchpiss'.... erm yeah.

Although this phone isn't a patch on my Desire (which met a watery grave) It's a dam sight better than it was, and that's just after updating to JM1... I haven't actually updated to froyo but tbh, the main thing for me was the knackered GPS which *SEEMS* (touch wood) to be working much better now. I don't have a burning desire to get froyo onto it now, it seems much better than it was. Flash for the bbci player was the main thing for me with froyo, but being as I've had so much s*** with this phone before JM1 and it actually appears to be working much better than it was, I'll just stick with this ROM for the time being I think.

@BackfireNL

wanna trade? ;)

I'm still happy with your SGS although I get why you're happy with the N1. I will trade SGS for N1 when someone proposes that though.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] greeced:
I haven't touched my phone with any non-official updates, which technically, if you got your updates from anything but Kies is unofficial, and I haven't had any problems with lags or GPS.

NOT saying there won't be any issues when you official update from Kies when Samsung says you're officially eligible, but castrating them when you're using releases that may or may not have adjustments for specific carriers causing problems on your phone is ridiculous.

I mean think about it, you're using an unofficial update. Which is similar to using an unofficial ROM. You either like it, or you don't.

Now if you had the official release that Samsung says belongs on your phone and you still don't like it, fine, post away, but keep in mind you are a part of a great community here at XDA that will morph the phone to exactly the way you want it. Especially when more is learned about it.

Windows and Android phones have something the iPhone will never have. Communities of developers/hackers that will correct problems that manufacturers refuse to.

I've never touched my phone with any kind of fix or anything unofficial, and am happy with it. Do I wish it had certain features it currently doesn't? Hopefully Froyo will when it becomes available to me, if not, Xda will shine.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mozzboiDK:

The phone has problems (fixables) that i can't denied it. But i' don't fill the forum with post like " this phone is s**t becouse it takes more than 5 seconds to load a wep page."

Try autokiller or aggressive setting of minfree in OCLF 2.0 fr market, dont use advance task killer
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bec07:
LooooooooooL :D:D:D, don't let the door slam you on the way out, and don't expect a free iPhone condom to fix your signal like they gave in the US :D:D

That being put aside I really like this device and I have another 4 friends that love it and never have heard/used a lag fix or even bothered scooping XDA out :p

I installed the lag fix the first day I got it because it had rooting 'n all and I also de-branded and flashed it.

I can say I have really never experienced "the lag" until yesterday when I tried JM1 so I can mess around with product codes.

I also never experienced GPS issues when I tested it(with JPK) half way across Europe both in cities and on the highway versus some garmin nuvi and a nokia 5800.

It outperformed the 5800 in every single aspect and that's an extremely popular device that has never ever had GPS issue complaints - well it should.

The nuvi didn't lose signal in tunnels like SGS but it was taking a lot more time to find satellites.

Sure the lag was an issue before 2.2, EPIC FAIL from samsung for trying to push their proprietary file system, but fixing that was always a breeze and samsung kept to their promise of opensourcing the SGS rom & software.

So IMHO considering design and hardware this device is a work of art.

The minimal issues in the software are too easy to tweak for those who really notice them.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bec07:
I guess some sites are really too hard on the CPU. The site I posted above (http://theiphonefever.blogspot.com/) is my main source of nfo if I should actually invest in something as expensive as an iPhone.

It works just as bad as the one you posted and it worked just as bad on both my N900 and on the 3GS. I'm willing to bet the site you posted would work just as jerky on those two phones.

I know these devices have a wow 1ghz cpu but some scripts/java/flash/and HTML mixtures still break them.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DSF:
@Bec07, the scroll in the site you posted (theiphonefever) is heavy even on Firefox on my core 2 duo PC :D (maybe of the fixed background? donno, haven't investigated)

I've talking about the general browsing experience in Froyo. It's way worse. It stals a lot. Even on simple sites as xda forum (with OLD theme selected). Also when it stals the browser use more CPU than it should (you can view with built-in task manager)

pocketnow.com is smooth on iPhone 4. On Eclair SGS is ok. You can see a lot of browser comparison videos showing this (from their channel)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] veetip:
This link contains some really poor arguments:

Don't even get me started with the Galaxy S's plastic cover!

This is exactly what happens on Android unless a special layout is created for high resolution devices (which is what can be done on iOS too, AFAIK).

Kind of like every other device with a capacitative touch screen?

...seriously?

This sounds a lot like most other modern touchscreen phones!

ISO is not exposure.

Mmm, promise? They must do it because of the license.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Chad_Petree:
exactly adw launcher or launcherpro are NOT the lag solution, blame the stupid rfs filesystem
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dovla_sa:
I really start to think that Android is not for everybody. If you don't like to temper with your device and like to have everything the way it was "meant" to be then you should not chose the device such as SGS, move to Apple world and be happy. I have iPhone 4 and SGS but never in the right mind i thought of swapping it for another iPhone 4. Since i had two SGS i've sold one and got the iPhone 4.

I just like the Android for being open and can enjoy such community as xda.

And now running froyo with lag fix, i definitely love this phone. Never had any issues with GPS in Eclair either. Call me a lucky one? Sure why not but SGS has been a joy to use since day one.

Cheers

[Galaxy S I9000 General] borchgrevink:
Hmm, well mine lags so much I cannot even use "my tracks" because it always stalls etc. Running jp6 and 100 apps.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] huxflux2003:
Whoever thinks that iPhone 4 is better than SGS is an Apple fanboy. It is that simple. SGS wins hands down on 90% of the compared topics. Browser is smoother (still) on iPhone, but I bet that this will get fixed for the SGS soon. The Galaxy Tab browser fix is just a preview.

iOS is so outdated, limited and booooring that I cannot believe they still have not publicised any plans for a major revision. Maybe thats why market predictions show iOS to be stuck at 10% market share from 2012 an on (together with WinMo) and android at 35%+.

And please, Apple did not invent capacitative screens and iFart was not an innovation in software engineering. It's just good marketing directed to non-technology aware people.

EDIT: BTW, resistive touchscreens are way more accurate than capacitative screens. Try working on an Excel sheet with your fat fingers on the tiny iPhone screen. Then try with a stylus on a same sized screen on a WinMo.

Is there an update for froyo on kies? here in the philippines?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mib1800:
Just live with it. Android is going to be slower than Iphone. Why? Because it is 100x more functional with more background processes and co-operative multitasking. Even without lagfix, SGS performance is quite acceptable. With lagfix it is close to Iphone.

But with Iphone, you are stuck with all its idiosyncracies like itunes, lockdown, JB etc. I have an Iphone and I truly hated it as a phone. (e.g. there is no way to find your total outgoing call duration not even with the gazillion apps). I also hated that Iphone can't do any of the basic things like automated ring profile/missed call reminder/blacklist/USB mode with going thru JB.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Red John:
Maybe it's because I'm coming from an iphone 3GS... But my	SGS is completely fast enough on the stock ROM with lagfix. A functioning GPS and I'll be entirely satisfied with this phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] borchgrevink:
Well I want to be able to use my phone lag free WITHOUT a fix that ruins my warranty.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DSF:
Yeah.. the main problem is that FROYO it's even worse than ECLAIR in terms of performance in many aspects.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] songyop:
My Galaxy S I900 has been working so great for the past three weeks. It's fast and responsive, and its screen is a beauty to admire indeed. My GPS works really well here in Singapore and have used it many times to navigate real-time to find several places already. With some adjustment in the phone settings, the phone sounds great on my Shure in-ear phones. I see many people who actually enjoy having the Froyo on their phones, but also many who still have issues. Instead of focusing on the problems, go spend some time implementing fixes already available so that you can enjoy the phone like the many of us who do! (VooDoo 5 is available, FYI). As for me, I will wait some time before upgrading to Froyo to make sure that I can optimize my phone the way I like it. If it weren't for the need to have the Skype on my phone, I would be happy to keep it as is even. I wouldn't trade this phone for any phone out there! I didn't buy Samsung. I bought a Galaxy S phone, knowing fully that I was getting on a journey of lots of tweaking and customizing. If you had expected to get a phone that just works out of box exactly the way you want, you obviously hadn't done your homework in your purchasing process and made an uninformed decision. Despite the software glitches, with the wonderful community of Android developers helping us normal folks, the phone works really well. Fixing issues, customizing the phone, ... these are, in fact, a part of my enjoyment of having a phone based on open platform. Otherwise, I would have just bought an iPhone and learn to live with its limitations. So, go and do the right thing! Spend the time to optimize your phone so that you can enjoy it like many of us do :D

My hat is off to the wonderful developers and great commentators on this forum who have helped me enjoy my phone so much!

Thank you very much!!!

[HD2 General] i n f a m o u s:
Okay, so I purchased a used HD2 in excellent condition from Craigslist, and everything was working fine until about two weeks ago.

I woke one morning to find my HD2s screen not responding to any my touches. Everything else worked fine like the buttons, incoming calls, and booting. So after troubleshooting for a bit I flashed my HD2s ROM from Froyostone back to OEM WinMo ROM to see if that would remedy the issue but no luck there.

After researching some of the common issues related to the HD2, I read somewhere that the HD2 had to be sent for repair due screen or digitizer? not responding.

So my question is what should I do with my HD2 since I can't send it in for repairs because warranties don't carry over to the next person.

Btw, I'm stuck using my myTouch 1.2 which is bearable but after being spoiled by my HD2 I can't just let it sit around collecting dust.

call HTC customer service
[HD2 General] i n f a m o u s:
What do I need to have prepared before calling them besides my phone?
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
that's about it since you do not have the original sales receipt. They will prolly want the IMEI and or SN of the phone when you call them so get it ready
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Yep, since you are not the original purchaser of the phone, the warranty is more than likely void for the device...HTC is notorious for cancelling warranties for second owners. But yeah, just have your phone on hand when you call because they will want the model, IMEI and serial numbers from it. IF by some amazing chance they actually cover it under warranty DO NOT tell them that you flashed a custom ROM to try to fix the problem, as that will SURELY void your warranty...just lie and be all like, "Oh yeah...R-O-M? What does that mean?". Most of the time if the device gets back to HTC with a custom ROM on it or HardSPL they will charge you like an extra 20USD for "software restoration" but your warranty will be in tact.
[HD2 General] morbidstar:

I even told the rep that it was an ebay purchase. Of course without a receipt he went by the s/n date.
[HD2 General] Tachi91:
What happen? did he/she still let it be in warranty?
[HD2 General] clauswl:
Yes, he sent me a new replacement (0 minutes of incoming and outgoing calls logged)
[HD2 General] Tachi91:
Kool... I like HTC they're full of nice people
[HD2 General] st40611:
Same here. I called in HTC T-mobile customer service about my home button no longer working and he simply asked for my S/N code. He asked me where I got the phone and I told him straight that I got it off another person - and after checking the warranty is still intact, so he allowed me to have it shipped.

Now I just need to flash stock ROM to it and make sure HSPL is gone so I can safely get my HD2 back fixed. =)
[HD2 General] i n f a m o u s:
Thank you guys for your concerns and advices!

Sorry, it took me so long to get back to everyones replies. I've been busy with school/work/and rooting and flashing new ROM's on my backup phone (myTouch 1.2).

So I finally had some time off to call HTC Customer Rep. and inquire about repairs and whatnot. The process only took about 5-6 mins. and the customer rep. didn't even ask if my phone was altered in any way. I was only asked for the IMEI number and where and when the phone was purchased. As it turns out my phone is still fully covered through T-Mobile warranty and I only have to pay for shipping and diagnosis.

So before shipping my phone off to HTC should I completely revert everything back to it's stock settings? I flashed my HD2 ROM back to its default ROM but I'm still using Cotulla's HSPL... Do you guys think HTC will still honor my warranty if they find out it's been hacked into?
[HD2 General] Ryan79:
As the others have said, I would get the phone as near-stock as possible... if you're able to. That means removing HSPL and going to a stock ROM. Check the forums, they have instructions for flashing SPL & ROM back to stock.
[HD2 General] i n f a m o u s:
Okay so I reverted my T-Mobile HD2 back to stock ROM and SPL. Just so I make sure the software appears to be have been unaltered, I flashed my ROM back to stock WM 6.5 from The Unlockr's website and also flashed my HSPL to SPL 2.08.0000.

When my phone boots up this is what I get:

Is there anything else I need to change before sending in my phone? I watched someone on YouTube downloading a T-Mobile HD2 ROM from the official website... Is that ROM any different from the one I downloaded from The Unlockr's website?
[HD2 General] clauswl:
Make sure your spl is 2.08.0000spl or 2.10.0000spl. Don't send the phone in with 2.08HSPL.

Here are the steps:

1 Power off (take battery out)

2 Hold volume down and press power on button (end key)
[HD2 General] i n f a m o u s:
Roger that! :]

I already sent in the phone today with stock ROM and SPL.

Can't wait for my baby to get back to me! The anticipation! C:
