I was wondering, does the decal cover both the front and back of the phone? surely it doesn't cover the screen right? (can't tell from the images on the website).

Also, does the decal cover the keys on the right side of the phone? if so, are the keys still sensitive after?

dead101, which one did you order?

Is there a way to have an excel file that I have on my phone synced with an excel file on my computer?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ragnarokx:
ever use dropbox? it keeps files synced between your phone and your computer. you should try it with your excel files.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1999TL:
I do use drop box. I guess I could use that. I signed up for think free office online but it's a pain and doesn't always work right.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1999TL:
Thanks. Just tried using drop box and it will work for what I need.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] decalex:
+1 for Dropbox. That thing is a lifesaver. They totally need better file manager functionality though .. (like sorting..)
[Vibrant General] patriot1973:
...Having bluetooth work like it should! I just came from a Mytouch 3G after a year to the Vibrant. The BT on the MT3G was utter garbage! I listen to podcasts all day while at work with my A2DP bluetooth and I couldn't set the phone down on my desk and walk 10 feet across the office without it choking, hiccuping or dropping my connection. At first I thought it was the earpiece so I returned the Jawbone Icon and bought the Blue Ant T-1. Same damn problem! I would walk with the phone in my hand and with every swing of my arm the sound would cut out. I practically had to hold the phone in the hand closest to the earpiece! My 5 year old Moto flip phone had better BT performance than the MT3G did. So once I got the Vibrant the first thing I did was try out the BT performance. Man, what a relief! They put a good radio in there! Now I can leave my phone in one room of the house, go downstairs and not have a single dropped connection or sound hiccup while playing audio.

Thanks Samsung!
[Vibrant General] TheBrandonWRX:
The Bluetooth is utterly broken on my devices. It sucks in my car (5+ phone NEVER an issue). Glad yours is working, I am hoping moving to Froyo moving spec to 3.0 will resolve this. Bluetooth is my only complaint about the Vibrant.
[Vibrant General] kangxi:
While one rejoices, the other complains. Seriously I am starting to think Samsung customized each individual phone for purchase. At least that is what it seems like on these forums with all the conflicting reports.
[Vibrant General] rlxurmnd:
i came from a moto cliq, and the bluetooth was worse then your mt3g. with the cliq the bluetooth would never stay connected. i always had to repair the headset with the phone every time i wanted to use it. now i can actually say that the bluetooth on the vibrant is so much better and it actually works
[Vibrant General] epakrat75:
LOL. I'll take a Vibrant with a messed up GPS, BT, etc and a side order of slow RFS on the side, please. Please pull up to the next window... :p
[Vibrant General] MTC44:
Does that come with a large NAND or will you charger me extra for that?
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
That is include free of charge at random. And as part of our standard package you will get phone bricking OTA from our partner T-Mo Inc free of charge as well.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
Also free of charge you can navigate to XDA dev section and load a custom ROM with the kernel and lag fix of your choice and have a smooth experience with your Vibrant.

[Vibrant General] Wearespacepeople:
Also free of charge, Nachos. Enjoy :)

Would you like an extra large hardware lock with that, sir? For here or to go?
[Vibrant General] nomadrider123:
lastly would you like it bricked? :rolleyes:
[Vibrant General] mmalott:
I love the display. With that said there's a whole list of things that I can name that I HATE about this phone. Mostly poor design aspects on the part of Samsung.
[Vibrant General] t1n0m3n:
I use napster, bluetoothed to my truck stereo most all of the time. I never drop audio, and I am sure signal drops to 1 bar in places.
[Vibrant General] jackhuny:
For me that best thing is the Super AMOLED screen, many other phones had me thinking of selling vibrant but at the end is the screen I just can't give up. It's like once you see it you will never go back to any other crabs. The best screen ever.
[Vibrant General] kevoh:
Considering coming from MyTouch before Vibrant...speed/performance :)
[Vibrant General] patriot1973:
I second that...
[Vibrant General] ronin4740:
Coming from a Touch Pro 2 and an iPhone 3G I like the speed of the Vibrant, the display and am happy with the availability of apps for it. Rooted with the Mobile AP app installed is the frosting on my tasty cake!

I can live with GPS glitches (it's not perfect but it does get me from place to place), shorter battery life etc... The Vibrant isn't perfect but it does what I need it to do without complaining that I'm asking too much from it most of the time :)

The Android smartphone segment keeps getting stronger, and the Samsung Galaxy S looks set to be a key player in 2010. Not only does it get the company’s coveted Super AMOLED display, but a 1GHz processor, 720p HD video recording and plenty of wireless connectivity. Now freshly announced as incoming to Verizon as the Fascinate, T-Mobile USA as the Vibrant and of course AT&T as the Captivate, the Galaxy S is certainly spreading itself around. So how does this Android 2.1 device compare with Apple's iPhone 4? We will take you through the key differences in features and performance between the two devices.
[Wildfire General] davestone:
I've done a test with Fps2D on my wildfire, reading that desire and EVO got around 60, sometimes EVO was even lower.

The Wildfire got me an fps average of 69.

Does this mean that even without a GPU the Wildfire if fine tuned can be a pretty powerful device?

____________________________________

P.S. Done even a 3D bench with Gears for Android, and got a 50-52 fps rate.

Consideration: Seen how much improvements had the Desire with the 2.2 update.

I think Froyo can be a Rebirth for the Wildfire!
[Wildfire General] jutley:
are you saying games run at 60 fps on this thing with what rom is that standard rom?
[Wildfire General] davestone:
No Actual games does not run that good, actually wildfire right now suck for gaming, but it's even true that there aren't games officially compatible with this device right now.

Those are only benchmark tests done on stock 2.1 update 1.

That let me think that even if this device is not as powerful as the other, if there are games fine tuned, they will run quite good.

if you want to run this tests yourself just download from the market:

-Fps2D

-Gears for Android

[Wildfire General] jutley:
Well DJ Steve is hopefully gonna make a custom 2.2 rom for the wildfire i know this so hopefully he can get the gaming level on par with other phones i have just ordered my wildfire on voda payasyougo at play.com £139.99 bargain first thing i do is root and get a decent rom on it hope to see good things come soon dont forget to check the modoco forums wildfire thats where steve will anounce soon i hope.

thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MiG123:
it seems the above froyo release hasn't been receiving as much attention from the community and devs as compared to JP6&JPM.

many concurring field reports have concluded that JPA on the whole runs much faster then JP6/JPM, with the I/O issue being more or less eliminated and GPS working fine.

As such would like to seek the community's consensus on which of the 3 recently released froyo roms are the best, so as to provide a guiding light to newbies like me the ideal froyo firmware to install.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tommy34:
i've seen people reporting quadrant values (without any fixes) of 1101..

not all languages are included in this rom. (english is)

The pda part doesnt include: googlemaps/market and some more.. these apps are in de csc file.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TheNikkoMan:
I tried JPA. It didn't impress me. I saw no speed increase, the gps wasn't better. I think it is just JP6 for arabian countries.

Didn't check quadrant though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] huxflux2003:
I've tried both JP6 and JPA. I don't think that it is really faster. Both perform equally well. Both have slow (slower than JM9 at least) browsers. The 1100 quadrant is a myth. I am getting 950-1000 without lagfix. Never saw more than 1000. Both work very nice with OCLF and became lagfree. It has very limited languages (English, French and arabic languages) and it has some muslim oriented applications (koran, a strange compass that only works during the day etc.).

I think I will be going back to JPM, since it seems to be the official version.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] leoon:
Ok got my answer from huxflux, thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] redlinenorma:
huxflux2003, did you install 50+ apps at least ?? At once the difference is appreciable... no need to install lagfix at all
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] iamshridhar:
JPM is not official according to me, its an internal release which was ment for testing at samung labs... it changes/modifies the product key and imei, JP6 is and allready released for few countries as official FROYO...

quadrant on jp6 is less than 1000 all the time... :( being official though
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rajuki:
Tried both JPM and JPJPA and apart from having Arabic support for JPJPA, there were no major changes to JPH, which I was using before. Quadrant score are near about 900-1000 max. The lag is still there. No such improvement in GPS.

Now using the "GoodBye RFS" ROM from sztupy...worth a try.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hacksome:
I would say JPA is faster than all other Froyo. I tried 'em all.

One crude test:-

Install +50 Apps. Launch the task manager and kill all active apps, clear l1,l2 cache. Then press home button to launch launcherpro. On all other froyo, the icons will take time to appear, on JPA it is already there!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bouzoubaa:
+1 JPA is way faster than the other two froyos JP6 and JPM ... i m positif about this ... I have 103 apps .. and everything is working just fast ... no lagfix is needed .. and for those who love the quadrant numbers .. mine gives 1070 with JPA ... the 1100 is not a myth ... but really i dont care about quadrant scores .. i did it just for the sake of posting it .. everyday usage is way faster than JP6 and JPM ... Please while flashing make sure to check partition with .512 and after flashing always factory reset ... I 'm really astonished that people can't see the speed difference
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] leoon:
Does JPA have Arabic support or is it JP6?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
Its JPA. It has al kinds of crazy arab stuff in it. Koran, Compass for praying but is missing market and language support.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] leoon:
It isnt crazy for us Arabians.

Anyways, even earlier 2.1 version didnt have market but if you wipe from recovery the market comes out, did u try that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] android53:
+1 for jpa
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bouzoubaa:
If you dont see the market .. you should change your product code to MED and it will come out ... ;) :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mike.sw:
i simply don't understand how people here decide if firmware A is faster then B or vis versa.

how do you benchmark this "speed" ?

both quadrant and personal feel are not really good indication. so one saying jp6 is the fastest, the other says jpa.. me for example didn't really feel any differnece over jpk which i lag-fixed after 10 minutes.

you really need to use jpa if you need RTL support. simple as that.

other then that, it's pretty much same jp6/m.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] omersak:
A difference might be found in the max volume of the music player, because of the EU volume limit.

Can anyone please tell me if the maximum volume of JPA is more than JP6/M? If its the same then i'm going for Jp6.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] KMino:
JPA here flashed tonight, got 996 is Quadrant. All apps restored, feels faster than before stock 2.1. But slower than 2.1 with Voodoo :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bouzoubaa:
my quadrant score in JPA with 100+ apps installed is 1074 ... feels very fast ... voodoo will make it even better
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] EarlZ:
Can we just move the market APK from the JPM to JPA ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sonci:
I was really happy with my sgs,

but after reading forums about lagfix rooting etc, i decided to play around,

installing custom firmwares lagfixes fot the lag that I never saw,

then I got problems witb battery life, then Kies doesnt recognize my phone and the gps was ok from the begining,

So I got better benchmark but in real world only trouble,

I think offical firmwares are ok for most people, I wish I hadnt flash it at all..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] compi_hu:
Hi folks,

Please let us know it the froyo update appears in your kies and nobody reported it from ypour country so far to make it possible for other (less and less patiently) waiting fellow SGSers to follow the progress of the update country by country. It would be a nice extra to also report your Product code (can be found by searching the registry starting at HKCU/Software/Samsung/Kies/DeviceDB for ProductCode)

Thanks in advance for everyone who cares enough to make easier the already too long waiting process for us.

Positive feedback(s) so far:

Sweden

Norway

Denmark

Finland

Iceland

UK O2 (?)

Germany

Netherlands

Please try to avoid "no update here" post if it's possible as they are only noise an make updating first post to reflect the current status a lot harder. Thanks.

thats in the UK by the way on O2
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zenith601:
You HAVE to disable it, the new firmware will not be able to recognize the EXT4 partitioning system! follow this guide on voodoo lagfix webpage:

http://project-voodoo.org/documentation

In this way you will revert back to RFS. As soon as voodoo lagfix will be ready for Froyo (not yet) you'll be able to install over the previous one that is still disabled.

I have just disabled it now.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] compi_hu:
Kiitos :-D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Fihlvein:
Finland, JF3, Kies .82, XEE, JP6 being now offered.

On the other hand and not a big suprise, my other SGS JM9 doesn't get updated, even if XEE.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] xavierzutafun:
I'll just wait until let's say Wednesday and if they will not bother, I will do the same. I presume that they've had rather enough time for testing (I mean - Scandinavian carriers did it as well), so let's hope they will not push it...We'll see...

It's stored on the phone. When you connect your phone to keis, it reads it and stores it in the registry.

Well just updated my ex T mobile UK Galaxy S ( it was unlocked from then the moment i got it ) to Froyo using the following registry hack and all is running fine :)

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\DeviceDB\1]

"SoftwareRevision"="I9000XWJFB/I9000XEEJG1/I9000XXJF5/I9000XWJFB"

"ProductCode"="GT-I9000HKDXEE"

"HIDSWVER"=""

"DEVCONINFO"=""

Have to say so far Froyo seems a lot more responsive that Eclair did but only had it running for about 30 minutes so will see what it's like in the next couple of days.

Two thing that definatly have improved at least for me is the wireless gets a much stronger signal than before and the GPS locks on way faster than it did with Eclair.

I'd really like it if people stopped posting here that they managed updating via reghack - that should be possible everywhere there is a sufficiently good internet connection(sufficient bandwidth and without certain blocked ports). I think this thread is supposed to track official Froyo updates from around the world.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] dewimagica:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] seby79:
I agree with <<nonreviad>> about posting successfully updates using the ''hackreg''. Don't get me wrong I don't have anything against those persons, good for them and I wish them to use the phone as best and as long they can, but we need to have a thread only for the official updates without any hack. There are several threads but in any of them someone post something related with hacking. It will be nice to have a thread just for the official one, and on that thread any one of them to be able to announce if the official release got to their country.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] philidor:
It's possible to close this post and re-open a new only with first post (compi_hu) for rteporting ONLY succesfull kies update WITHOUT hackreg?

The new post can be called "Froyo update - tracking countries NO HACK-REG"
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Straputsky:
The thread title misleaded me too. It would have been better to summarize where it isn't possible to fool Kies. As one already said, this should be possible to nearly everyone. The thread title could include that we talk about a reg hacked Kies.

Are there any other countries where Froyo is really available?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NetCopAD:
The original idea of the thread was to post the countries in which Froyo is officially released via Kies. People decided to use it to inform the community that they installed JP6 using the Kies hack. Hence the thread became useless and lost the original idea (which was great by the way, but community failed on this one).
