To all who still check here for fonts This is a better place to go, since it is still active. Plus what the OP here was doing is making "flipfont" apps. These will work on any phone that supports FlipFonts which includes all the GalaxyS phones.

To use these fonts (ones made here and in the topic I linked) just unzip and put the .apk any place on the phone. Find where you put it thru a "file manager" app, and just install it with the stock installer. Then go into settings>display>font.

can someone make an apk file of this font???

There are way too many stickies :P
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
we're aware of that

good thing it's only in General

the other sub sections are fine

it'll get better after the Froyo rush dies out, and all the defective phones are sent back to repair, then many of those Sticky will be gone
[G Tablet Accessories] rockabee88:
I had been trying to find out what type of port the Viewsonic G Tablets docking port was and couldn't find the answer on the web. But i kept looking at it and couldnt help but see that it looked alot like the iphones charging port. So i tried a stock apple usb charging cable and to my disappointment it didn't fit. But for the sake of curiosity and frustration over not having a docking station that was easy to get in the U.S. I tried wearing down the sides of my old plastic energizer portable charger adapter for the iphone and after some work it fit. The pins even seemed to line up right with each other. My only problem is that i have no way to test if i actually works. So if anyone has and old usb iphone cable and dremel to grind down the sides like i did you can test to see if it is the iphone stock charging port customized not to fit the iphone cable. If anyone tries this please post back because i'm ordering cables to try it myself.
[G Tablet Accessories] xjarl:
I will buy one Ipad cale to test.

I will buy one 30pin-HDMI adapter for Ipad to test if it is suitable for Malata Zpad..
[G Tablet Accessories] it2steve:
Not sure if yo have seen the threads but there is a dock available and the same company is still working on a straight cable for hdmi out.

We will keep you guys posted on developments as you are not the only ones wanting them. Keep an eye out for docks here in the next few days.
[G Tablet Accessories] it2steve:
The dock is available from some distributors in china and made for the ZPAD by Malata (I think). I got one last week and all tested well.

I'm hearing that there may be a few dock floating around here soon for quicker purchase in the US but don't know much more than that.... yet.
[G Tablet Accessories] shaneernst:
Hey guys, so did anyone ever get the g tablet to charge from an iphone cable?
[G Tablet Accessories] it2steve:
Nope... We have all tried over and over with no luck. it's a proprietary cable that took developers a long time just to get the hdmi out

...sent from my 'un-stock' g2x

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josh510:
About an hour ago I attempted to install a theme through a rom manager

it was "lithium mod".

My phone is now a very expensive advertisement for "lithium mod" as when it turns on, all it shows is a little loop of the lithium mod logo and "droid".

When I try to do ANYTHING in HBOOT i get a black screen with white bars.

What do i do?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1ghtwish:
you flashed a recovery that's only compatible with AMOLED screens... you have an SLCD screen.. you need this recovery:

(thx to jonsuh.com for link)

Flash this recovery via unrevoked and then re-flash your ROM
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ydmitriv:
Alright i just flashed to it. I get the toolbar on the top and pitch Black underneath. I constantly get a "Sorry, The process.andriod.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. please try again."

I cant do anything or see anything except the bar. and my pass code that i have to type to unlock.....

What do i need to do to get it to work nicely completely? a complete data wipe??
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] USSENTERNCC1701E:
If you flashed to it from a different ROM, not just an update, then yes a full wipe is likely necessary, even if it is an update it's not a bad idea. I'd redo everything, start from scratch including a new download.

How do I enable apps to SD?

My SDcard is partitioned already..should I just follow the terminal commands on the link u gave me?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etu_aty:
pretty much.. just open terminal emulator app, type su and press enter, allow superuser permissions, then type a2sd cachesd and press enter, wait for the whole thing to finish and then reboot.. it should take a while depending on how many apps you have so dont freak out if it takes longer than usual... when it loads up you should have your data space back. then what i like to do is run fix permissions from rom manager as well, it helps avoiding force closes and such. good luck :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Don't forget he needs to download and flash the a2sd activator from clockwork. The zip file is in a thread (in the dev section for our phone), just DL it and follow the instructions in the post.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xologist:
wait.. so do I need it, or can I just type the commands on the terminal?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
In order to use apps2ext you have to flash the activator zip. If you're using CM 6.1 you don't need a custom boot.img so don't worry about that.

1. Partition you sdcard with an ext2 or ext ext3 partition

2. DL the activator zip and flash it in clockwork

3. Boot

4. Use the terminal emulator and type the commands *see bottom

5. It will reboot (may take a while)

6. Done

su [enter]
cd /system/bin/ [enter]
sh a2sd cachesd [enter]
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xologist:
I did as you said on your post above, I restarted the phone, went to "SD Card & Phone storage", im still getting

Total space: 145MB

Available space 100MB

(i set with rom manager to 500 =/ )

What could it be?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Did you move your apps to the sdcard? You might check them to make sure they're not still installed to the phone.

Also, 100MB sounds about right. That's what I have and I delete useless stuff (useless to me) so my ROM is smaller.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xologist:
I thought if I formatted my sdcard to 500mb, i would have 500mb instead of 100..

no?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SKAm69:
Please help me.

I can't partition my sd card. I'm using CM 6.1. I have tried several methods, both ROM Manager and AppsToSd apps don't do nothing when trying to perform the partitioning, after requested reboot everything's the same. Adb didn't work either, says not found. I even wiped and reflashed the Rom. What could be wrong? I know it's not the same issue but related, so not to create a separate thread.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xologist:
The issue in this thread has been solved.

You should copy that message and create a new thread. What you are doing right now is "Thread Hijacking" (taking over someone elses thread that might still need help)

anyhow.. post a new thread, i might reply with some info
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Well you do have 500MB but it won't show up anywhere. The ext partition can't be read by windows and your phone won't list it under the storage menu. I'm sure there's an app (Titanium backup) that will list your ext and show you used/free memory if you want to check to make sure it's there. Also you can type:

su
cd /system/bin/
a2sd sysinfo

or

a2sd diskspace (I think)

That will show you your ext size.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etu_aty:
the 100 is the space left on THE PHONE not the sdcard, since the ext is mounted but not exactly as it should then that space (the 500mb) is not showned there, just the space you have left in you /data partition (in the phone).

Looking at the space left it looks like you did it right and your apps are going to your ext partition so dont worry about it anymore :D
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
Before these steps make sure you have latest version of kies installed, it helps in keeping latest drivers installed.

Files required for Flashing can be downloaded here.

1) Start Odin (if using windows 7 or vista right click Odin and use run as administrator)

2) Check "One Package" checkbox

3) Check “Reboot” checkbox

4) Check protect ops checkbox (Don’t check this if you are flashing I5801 with I5800 firmware for the first time.)

5) Check reset time checkbox, keep the default value as it is i.e. 300 don’t select any other options.

6) Hit reset files button once.

7) Click ops button and select OPS file for I5800

8) Click one package and select the firmware you want to flash. The file must a .tar file.

9) You can take a backup of your data/apps. For that you can use Titanium Backup. For backing up contacts and SMS.

A) go to contacts press menu/left most button select import/export option, then export the contacts to sdcard.

B) For sms use the app called SMS backup.

10) Now remove your sdcard and sim card from phone and do a factory reset/ Hard Reset also clear cache then restart and put it in downloading mode by pressing vol- + home + power button together.

11) Now connect your phone to pc.

12) Odin will show yellow color and com port no. in the first box on top in Odin.

13) Click Start and watch the progress bar and timer, wait until PASS message appear on Message box.

14) Disconnect the phone from PC when Odin displays disconnect serial port & wait until rebooting phone.

Let the phone boot it takes some time 5-10 mins for first boot so don’t panic.

After reboot do factory reset or Hard Reset also clear cache again then restart phone and put sim and sdcard back in.

Sorry cant post images right now in office, will attach images as soon as i get home.

Please let me know if i have missed anything or if anything needs correction.

ATENTION I5801 USERS:

to keep the i5801 bootscreen you should remove boot.bin and sbl.bin from the .tar file before flashing.

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
Till now we don't need different .ops file for any of our firmwares they all can be flashed using same .ops file in the link i gave.

Yes you need to select the the same ops file apollo_0531.ops every time.

You wont get .ops files within Firmware zip files.

Attached is a image of Odin while all is set and we need to hit start.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
There is no such thing for this phone and i can tell you this that there is no risk of brick in flashing any of those firmwares at samfirmware.com with Odin.

But the ''close serial port & wait until rebooting phone'' appears at 2.30'.

Are your instructions wrong, or is it something else?

It doesn't boot!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] braveBuddy:
if you feel so than please share whats the right way.......please.

but for your information pass msg appears when the process starts correctly and you have selected correct ops file. if that doesnt happens than there is something wrong with your files.

which firmware did you flashed and where are you stuck, did you tried reflashing??? please add these info next time you say its not booting.............
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] moican:
I think, that was not a proper start... :p

I didn't want to cause problem of any kind! I just am so frustrated with the result! :(

But on the other hand, this question:

was aiming to get an asnswer because I am a newcomer and not to flame you! :o

So you misundertood it my friend! ;)

OK to ours now. I have the GT-I5800 and I did exactly as you write in the 1st post!

The ops file that I selected was the one that you give at your link! ;)

The firmware i had, was an eclair one, i think JG8. The one I tried to flash was XXJPB.

I tried 4 times but the result was the same: the phone stucks at the samsung logo. :mad:

I also waited longer than 10' but nothing happened. :(

It seems that it doesn't want to updgrade to froyo!!!

Oh and another one: After all these efforts i finally flashed K1 the latest eclair rom and all seemed ok, but it now shows me 0 mb internal memory!

I tried wipe data/factory reset from recovery but it didn't do any good at all. :(

Any help appreciated m8! ;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FM-Phone:
Hello moican,

I have the same problem like you. I can´t update to any 2.2 FW. I´ll tried all Froyo Versions on samfirmware but the Phone stuck´s at the Samsung Logo.

When I try to flash the latest 2.1 the Phone lost all Settings after a reboot.

So I flashed back to the Stock Eclair JG7 and everything works.

I'm just waiting for the update with Kies :(
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] moican:
Thank you my friend.

Now it's the two of us!

But why is this happening???

Does anyone has an idea?

Is this the same for the I5800. Someone changed the “Datafs.rfs” from FW XWJH2 into the .tar File too.

I haven't tried that yet

This seems to solve a whole bunch of problems when flashing

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] giokou:
What exactly did you do my friend?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FM-Phone:
Hi my Friends,

yes I did what FadeEx said ( # 30)

I used 7-Zip to open the .tar File from JPB (do not repack the File) Then I deleted the 2 Files “boot.bin” and “Sbl.bin” from the .tar File and flashed the Package.

Please Attention!!!

I flashed yesterday and everything seemed good so far. I rebooted the Phone 3 Times, but today it stuck´s at the Samsung logo again.

I wiped the cache and did a factory reset, but it has changed nothing.

Then I flashed back to JH2 with no Problems. I'll try it again and see whether it works.

Good luck.

It´s just a little bit crazy!!!

The only way that I can flashed JPB again is, to flash JG7 FW first with 4 Files (BOOTLOADER,CSC,PDA,PHONE) After then the modifed JPB .tar One Pack.

I suspect the Problem is in the Bootloader.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] giokou:
Thank you very much! Will try and report back! ;)

Definitely in the bootloader... :(

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] tanyh:
You flash the tar inside the rar not the rar
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FM-Phone:
OK, now it works for me. :D

I think I had a corrupt or a destroyed bootloader. JPB works for me if I previously flash the bootloader of JG7 and then the JPB Package without the boot.bin and sbl.bin (second bootloader)

No Problems so far, even after a lot of reboots.

Hi Guys,

I want to upgrade my galaxy 3 to android 2.2 version but also want to retain my original firmware just in case i want to rollback. I will appreciate if someone can assist me with the steps on how to back it up.

Thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] s3th.g3ck9:
In which way you want to back up the orifinal? A back up oft the firmware is not possible in lack of.a custom bootloader which would enable a nand back up. Why don't you just download the original (guess it is JG7) from samfirmware.com?

Edit: there must be a kind of a terminal command to back the old fw up manually. But look if you firmware us available for download. If not, maybe an expert can tell about the the command line backup.

Sure you can use app2sd by going to manage application options in settings-->applications-->manage applications

then click on any app and it will show the option of move to sd if that app supports that option. not all apps movable to sd card its a option which app developer has to include in the app.
