Ho... will selecting repartition in odin will do the conversion of /data, /dbdata and /cache to RFS or is it mandatory to use a custom kernel to do that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ed10000:
It will do it, but IMHO that's a crude way, and I'd avoid doing it unless necessary. Besides, if you use an ext4 supporting kernel and then convert it to RFS, you won't lose any apps/data :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] blyfoten:
Repartition will do it. (But can be dangerous if not done correctly)

But most of the custom ext4 supporting kernels have functionallity to do it from recovery menu. And give you the option to backup/restore your partitions (content)

i am not an expert on these but as a user, i know what u've contributed and how good ur developing skills are.

Why dont u try samsung? i think u are better than anyone picked from the their development team!!!

They created a crap system but it gets alive on ur hands! Turning rubbish into some useful things is much harder than create some useful things from scratch.

U are a genious!!! And thx for all the effort u paid on the community!

Oh forgot that as well. Will try tommorow.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jeebspawnshop:
Well, if you did everything right, then of course you remembered to install a lagfix kernel, then convert your /data partition to ext4, then run the Gingerbread stuff.

Of course you did all this... just like you remembered to install Busybox.

Just like you remembered to read the instructions on the first post.

Of course.

Everything remains exactly how you left it once you flash a 2.2 kernel back. No data is damaged at all (unless you completely screw up flashing by selecting repartition or something)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
was fun having a play around with gingerbread, tried to use button remapper but didnt work because of root, tried to install root but for some reason button remapper said i had root but the dialog of superuser.apk didnt come up to whether allow it or not and nothing changed, the buttons were still messed up. Button remapper works fine on stock sgs roms, Good job Supercurio!, hope you get it done :D

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaju123:
If you follow supercurio on twitter he said that the buttons for all devices are basically fixed.

thanks for trying to help my problem was that i cant get comand prompt to work on my computer so i adb wont work for me. i tried flashing it through cwm hoping in a slim slim slim chance it would work but i cant port push it becuase of the lock my command prompt working on my computer. i was seeing if he could make a flashable version through clockwork and didn't read entire post from superC and thought i could flash that tar through clockwork for boot screen sorry if you miss understood me and wasted your time .....ps does anyone know why the xda app keeps messing up and have to keep unistalling and wiping delvaik cache after i get logged out? (it says somthing about host or something)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:

Easier said than done, in a legal pov offcourse.

That would be like industrial espionage, Samsung using other companies work to adapt it to their phones. They need to develop their own version from scrath
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] foofiebeast:
uhhh, who do you think makes the nexus s?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Inosite:

I meant that tounge in cheek lol but there are working solutions
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tryklon:
Mate, do you have any understanding of legal contracts? Samsung builds their phones but only the hardware, not to mention there are some differences like memory. Google is completely responsible for all the software developments for the phone, and it's not because Samsung builds the damn plastics and internal circuits that they have the right to steal their software work and adapt it to their own phones...

They could and will use the aosp code as a base,just like supercurio will do.the problem on ssung is tjat they need to do lots of testing ti avoid pushing a faulty build to 5 million phones ...

Next thing is there are of course other things in the pipeline...they have more phones then just sgs that need some review in terms os software updates.

We only need to be patient,ginger was born just some days ago !

I am sure sammy wil deliver some beta in the next days,and supercurio will give us a clean version even faster
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Inosite:
Man, Android is fkin OPEN-Source, that's the point. Also why do you think NExus One roms wont work with Galaxy S? Cuz the hardware is totally different. Nexus S is almost the same as Galaxy S, the only difference is the internal storage. So if Samsung has a working rom for Nexus S, they already have a 95% done rom for Galaxy S
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pawitp:
Samsung can doing because Google released it as open-source.

But the reason that they won't do it because they want TouchWiz on it.

After that start google maps and post your findings ;)

Gingerbread is really snappy indeed. Just providing some insight. :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RMGeren:
For everyone just now joining this thread:

THIS IS NOT A RELEASE LEVEL PRODUCT!

If you read the OP, he states very clearly what the bugs are and how to install/restore. There is no update.zip because it's not worth making one at this point since you shouldn't be more than an arm's reach from adb console and odin/heimdall. If you don't know how to use those tools, wait for a later release like other users. No sense in making your phone temporarily useless over this.

The radio interface layer is not currently compatible with gb, so no wifi, gsm, 3g, nothing. The capacitive buttons are a wip (maybe done but not released). Superuser.apk does not yet work on gingerbread. Root explorer does not work. Clockwork mod does not (yet) work. It's basically a calculator (someone already posted that statement).

It's a fun experiment, but you must be familiar with all the tools out there so you don't wind up in a pinch.

Don't mean to be rude, just trying to get the thread back on track. Previous posts have links to how to use odin, cwm, etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RMGeren:
On a more constructive note:

@supercurio

You will find this sources on https://github.com/galaxys-kernel/linux_samsung_galaxys_port as soon as it will be committed.

@clockworkmod

Plan for the week, give SGS series some love: ext4 kernels and gingerbread recoveries.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wando77:
Hi, sorry if this has already been asked but will this end up being a fully working gingerbread (wifi, 3g, camera etc) or does nobody know that yet? I want to love my galaxy s but it lags like crazy to the point i wan to get rid of it. Its running 2.2 froyo and i tried the ryanza lag fix but that only seemed to work for a couple of days then it started to lag again.

Try voodoo by the person actually doing the port supercurio. I think it's the best lagfix out for sgs
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dwillMUFC:
I'm pretty sure any dev would want a completed and fully functioning rom. But as people have said this WILL take time.

And have you not tried many of the other roms out there? Ie - darkys or docs?

They have massive speed increases and tbh I'm running darkys rom now and it feels only a little bit slower than the early releases I tried out.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wando77:
darky rom

Thanks dan, are those roms easy to install and can i go back to my original froyo rom if i dont like them?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] philippsp:
You easly can flash back. (downloadmode should work)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] donsasan:
They are easy to install if you know how to use Heimdall/Odin. If you do so you also can go back to your original system.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Druter:
Uhhh not likely my sgs was good without the lag (tayutama Tom) but with the lag fix smooth as butter. If your phone is performing worse after the lag fix you need to undo and redo the lag fix

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Aqua1ung:
As far as I know, CM is still working on porting Froyo (i.e. CM 6.1) to SGS: last time I checked Gingerbread was nowhere near on their radar. Does that mean that (a) you (supercurio) have given up Gingerbread, and started developing Froyo?--hence all this Gingerbread excitement is gone? (That would be awful, right?) Or is it that (b) CM finally saw their way clear, dropped this Froyo nonsense, and switched to developing Gingerbread right away?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] danlol:
I highly doubt SC has ditched gingerbread,

I mean after getting it booting then developing 3 (well Alpha stage) roms he'd just drop it and move back to Froyo

Patience guys, these things take time... once the basic's have been covered (the softkeys are now done (almost done) according the Curio's twitter so once the radio stuff is done essentially that is a usable rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaju123:
The rom is being worked on by a reputable group of people, supercurio and the Cyanogen team. Supercurio has many other projects to manage as well remember. However I believe this is the most important of projects for him as most people would like it to be completed soon.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MiG-:
So is this now based on source and not the system dump? I would have thought with similar hardware the whole Nexus S tree would compile fairly easily for the Galaxy S or am I being naive?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] danlol:
The nexus does have slightly different hardware e.g.

NFC chip and a different style of memory ( I'm pretty sure it's NAND)

so although they're similar there is a fair amount of rewriting to be done...
