For Market: In phone dialer enter *#272*IMEI# . This wilk give u option to change from XSS to XSG, xsg has market enabled, by doing so you phone will reset, IMEI is number for you mobile handset, XSG is universal

OR

use attached market apk for XSS mobile, use Clockwork mode to "install from zip file" if you dont have Clock work mode, rename the zip to "update" and apply in Recovery

JPJPG is available through Kies aswell, If you are on JPJPA, flash back to JPJG8 and connect your mobile to Kies, It will offer you JPG upgrade, Before flashing back you need to backup your data/ sms/call logs etc and then flash back
[Galaxy S I9000 General] fawaz-sgs:
Quick questions guys:

Just got 2.2 through Kies. I now need to re-download my apps, over 90% of them are not showing through the market, not even through search. Im guessing I have to change again to XSG like I did when I had 2.1, then root again as well to enable Market Enabler and access paid apps like I used to (which I did with Ryanza)

1. Old XSG access code (HHMM) gets rejected, new code IMEI gets rejected,is there a way to enable this without flashing etc (i'm a very low-tech person)

2. How do I root this phone, Ryanza's, the only step by step guide I got for this was based on downloading odin with root kernel for JPH, as you know we are running on jpjpg.

3. Are you guys experiencing lags? I'm not so far.

Would really appreciate your help, with easy shortcuts. Never used odin ..etc...but was willing to give it a try until i noticed the different kernel code.

Thanks!

I Upgraded to Froyo Through Kies. The build number is JPJPG.

The App Drawer has major lag when changing pages. It was much faster with the stock Eclair rom. GPS is still the same, it was not fixed at all. I have not noticed any improvement in Battery life either.

Use this, worked fine with me:

Hi:

I updated my european SGS through kies last week, but i cant become root now...

Its posible for now become root and how?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 General] melharty:
I also got the update through Kies last friday, nov 19th. My phone had the 3 button recovery issue, I found a fix here on xda (will get the link later, its bookmarked on another pc)

I also installed voodoo lagfix PRE6, and the phone is working like a charm, highest Quadrant score 1510. After installing voodoo lagfix, rooting is so easy. Just install superuser from the market, and bingo.

So I can confirm that JPJPG works fine with:

- Voodoo lagfix project-voodoo.org

- Flashing the boot loader to fix the 3 button recovery issue

- rooting

Need to ask a question, can anyone please backup the stock ROM and upload it somewhere? in case I ever need to go back to stock, I stupidly forgot to take a backup
[Galaxy S I9000 General] HumanoidTalking:
To backup stock rom, you need Rom manager premium, It will install clockwork mode recovery, let me know If you have issues with that. Rom manager premium is paid but crack is available at blackdroid.net

Lgfix: I am using Universal lagfix (last option**No-RFS Overkill JFS: turns on all options: everything is jfs+ext2 and /data/data is bound to /dbdata**), it gives me a quardant score of 2100+

You get ULF from clockwork mode (install Rom Manager*free version* from market and open the app and the 1st option installs CWM) for details see this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=734166&highlight=clockwork+mode

Hi,

I have used CF root using Odin, its takes 3-7 seconds

Download the this file	"CF-Root-JPJPA-v1.2-Busybox-1.17.1.zip" from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=788108

and open Odin 1.3, its better to keep odin and above zip file in one folder, lets say in C:\.......

Unzip this zip in the same folder

Once Odin is open, click PDA to browse (downloaded Unzip file)(CF-Root-JPJPA-v1.2-Busybox-1.17.1) and Now shutdown you mobile (wait till its really off), press Volume down + power+Home simultaneously and bring your mobile in recovery mode, connect it to your computer, you will see 1st box on Odin will change its colour and it will comm 7 or 11

press start, it will reboot your mobile and you are rooted, let me know if you have any issues

For Market , download zip from post 6 and install via Clockwork mode

Hi

what is your firmware name, is it JPO/ JPA or JPJPG? (to check, in dialer type *#1234#) and is your 3 Button combination enabled??? if its not, enable it 1st from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=810686

if you have enabled 3 button combo use the method described in previous posts

Which root you used, normally all the roots available in these forums install Su and Busybox, check in your apps if you see Busybox

[Galaxy S I9000 General] HumanoidTalking:
Hi,

Your Firmware is Service Provider specific and I am not sure if its safe for you, but You can give it a try at your own risk, Sofar CF-root works with most of the firmwares. as your 3 Button Combo is enabled, it should be alright even if you mess up the firmware, you can download and flash the same firmware from samfirmwares.com or I you require official update reinstalled, install firmware 2.1 (I9000BUJG2) and connect to Kies, which will offer you your present update.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BLeaCHeR:
Sorry for my noobs questions, how can you know what is the right version of 'CF-Root' to install?, how do you know if my firmware is 'provider-specific'? and... if better install a version without provider's bloatware?

thanks in advance and sorry for my bad grammar, my english is a little rusty xD

Updated to official JPJPG via Odin. GPS reception is very very good and it gets lock in just a few seconds. But the lag while moving application pages is still present. Specially when you pinch in appliction drawer, the animation is very sluggish.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] totti808:
The lag in the application drawer is really annoying, it was better in the prevoius version (Stock 2.1).

Regarding the GPS, did you try to use the GPS by itself? or did you use the wireless networks option?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] HumanoidTalking:
To best answer your question correct version of CF-root, I suggest you to send a personal message to Chainfire and ask him, For me I used JPJPA ver.1.2 and it worked on JPJPG, now both are Froyo for Middle east but later being latest release. I you play safe, then PM him otherwise try any JPA/JPO kernal and see if it works for you.

for provider specific: Your firmware in on this website mentioned as provider specific www. samfirmware. com/ WEBPROTECT- i9000. htm (remove spaces)

From the website you can download a firmware related to your region and install it via Odin

Anyway to change the product code easliy without rooting? It was simple with eclair, but is there a secret code for froyo? Currently have product code GT-I9000HKDXSS. WAnt XSG again :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buntoo:
You can change the sales code by dialing *#272*IMEI# and then select XSG.

It will do a hard reset. So make a backup first.

If your original product code has been changed then you can change it as well.

Its quite easy. You just need root access and a root explorer to copy the .nv_data.bin to you pc for editing with some hex editer software like winhex etc. to change the XSS to XSG. And then put it back to your efs folder.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buntoo:
Without wireless assistance..

On Froyo JPJPA it was not that good.

Wireless connectivity is excellent on my SGS with all firmwares. I've never had any issue regarding wifi.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] owgees:
I tried that *#272IMEI.... etc secret code before and it didn't work, but I think I was inputting my IMEI wrong. I got the right IMEI by inputting *#06# .

So I inputted the secret code above, and lo and behold I was still set to XSG from when I changed it before when I was on eclair. So that is a point to note if anyone is updating to froyo, the sales code should stay the same.

I tried a few other sales codes and all was the same, couldn't find the apps I wanted in market.

I did some more hunting around on Google and turns out that it is the SIM card that makes the difference. I had an old SIM from Austria when I was on a skiing holiday and put it in the phone. Bingo! Skype, doubletwist and other apps that I couldn't see before where there. So I have d/l what I need for now.

So if anyone is looking for certain apps and they can't see them, I would get hold of a Euro sim card and you should be able to d/l the apps you want.

I have put my sim card for my current location (Kyrgyzstan) back in, and I can still use the apps i downloaded. Logged into skype, no problem. This should be good info for anyone wanting apps that aren't available in certain countries.

As a point to note, I tried with no SIM in my phone, and market was set up the same. It looks like there is a generic market for any countries that market doesn't recognize or have licensing agreements with or something. So just borrow a friends euro sim or buy one online and that is the way around my problem.

Hi,

I have an unbranded, unlocked Legend with a Vodafone SIM. The FOTA check says (not unsurprisingly) that no update is available.

I have downloaded via PC the Vodafone 2.2 zip file from HTC but would like advice/guidance on how to update my Legend with the contents.

Yes I know I could wait for the update being issued by HTC but the idea of waiting possibly until the end of the year is a real downer - so I would prefer to update now.

Grateful for any advice

Thank you

well ive been having issues with 900Mhz band and 3G (my phone company supports 3G under 900mhz only and i don't get on the 3G fun for some reason ): in my weak moments i got this idea of flashing a telus(canada) "sbf" on my milestone and going along with another company that user same 3G bands as telus <.<

will this idea work? any advice?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] leobg:
No matter what you flash, you can't change phones hardware. If you are using north american Milestone (purchased from Telus) you will have 850/1900/2100 bands. If you have european MS, you will have 900/2100.

However if you are not using the right radio firmware, your phone won't see 3G or will have troubles at best.

No matter what firmware you flash, make sure you flash the right radio files for the hardware you have.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davanshwik:
depends on if its hardware or software... software just a reboot or supposedly upgrade will help but if your already running the july ota 2.1....

Eris has a usb-trackball-mic combo port that has a notorious 'bad ground' (other physical trackball-equipped htc devices with similar designed usb-mic ports have the same issue as well) i cant even use the mic or trackball down and left without having the usb plugged in and slightly pulled forward, and barely then will the mic work. also have an issue where incoming bluetooth calls(only way i can use my phone as a phone aside from a wired headset) are rerouted back to my phone immediately upon answer have this problem with numerous roms and headsets

symptoms of this 'bad ground' problem and eventual complete mic failure etc are:

do u have phantom cursor movement whenever you plug in your usb cable into your device? ie. green selector jumping or tracking around the screen even when your device is not handled in any way...(makes it impossible to use the device while its doing this as well as it selects what it wants..lol)

callers asking hello hello hello? then hanging up even when your trying your best to wiggle the usb port or smack your phones microphone on your palm....

attempting to repair this problem (as im on cricket and obviously have no verizon 'warranty' anyways) i followed a write up on here about how to change your trackball and replaced with a new one as well as tried to clean dirty trackball contacts.. my microphone worked ok for like 3 days then went back to broken had no effect on trackball

on the other hand when i have had the silent call bug back when the mic worked, i usually couldnt hear the other person and they could not hear me and usually a restart worked..

hope some of this jibberish helps...
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmason68:
I contacted HTC support about the silent bug and this is what I got in response...

"Thank you for contacting HTC Technical Support. I’ve had to do a bit of research concerning the “silent bug”. Based on what I’ve read, do you mean that the audio goes silent on some calls, where you can’t hear the other party and they can’t hear you? Is rebooting your phone the only way to recover from it?

I can definitely understand your frustration if this is going on. I mean, you basically can’t use your phone sometimes. The latest update for the Eris addresses this issue. Please go to MENU > SETTINGS > ABOUT PHONE > SOFTWARE, and check the software number. The new software is number 2.37.605.4"

Her software number was lower than that, so I rooted her phone and installed xtrsense 4.6.5. She had one issue this morning but she isn't sure if that was because her volume was all the way down or if it was really the problem.

I also downloaded the Sprint radio update ending in 27, because her radio version is stale as well. I found that in the hidden menus using ##778. I am a little bit reluctant to flash that as I can't verify the CD5 #.

I haven't noticed the jumping around cursor and her trackball works OK. So I guess we are in wait and see mode now while I try to figure out what the next fix would be.

Thanks for the responses so far.
