Entirely possible but impractical to do so, I have the same problem with the buttons being a little bit sensitive (especially when placing the device on its side).

Check the market place for a remapping app.

Hey guys,

I was just wondering if the kernel can affect signal?

I am currently on MIUI 0.12.31 from MIUI-Au and I have tried many different radios.

Phone: HTC Desire

Current Radio: 32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14

Network: O2

I used to use the recommended radio for MIUI (32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2) but it seems recently the signal has become really rubbish. I used to get 4-5 bars but now I only seem to get 0-1 bars, 2 bars at a push. The only difference is that I am using DeFrOsT kernel rather than stock MIUI and I'm wondering whether this could be causing the signal issues?

Anyone have any recommendations for UK O2 network?

Regards,

Jads

I read that there is a kernel for the Nexus S that increases the speed to 1.2GHz. Since our phone is so similar to the Nexus S, can this be done to our phone?

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/nexus-s-1-2ghz-kernel-released/

Thanks,

There are plenty of kernels for SGS that allow overclock. Look in the development section.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w98seeng:
Thanks, never came across any while looking around. The only reason I asked was because I saw the article on the Nexus S.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w98seeng:
I have an SGS and I have noticed the lag, not as bad as others, but it is noticeable, before the lagfix.

Why does our phone and not others have this problem? In layman's terms please, I am not too familiar with phone tech speak yet.

Also, I know there are a few different fixes out, which ones are better?

Thanks,

Ian
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stickfinger:
Lots of people put the lag down to the filing system. Samsung chose to implement their own (RFS i believe) and not the android/linux versions.

I use RyanZa's OCLF on mine and its brilliant, it makes the phone use EXT2 file structure (a proper Linux file system). I used it on 2.1 Eclair and now on 2.2 Froyo. I cant say i've tried the other lag fixes so my opinion may be a little biased but my phone is super quick so i'm happy with it
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mushipkw:
Voodoo lagfix converts the file system to EXT4 which is faster than EXT2. I m rocking my Galaxy S with Darky's Rom & Voodoo lagfix enabled.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w98seeng:
I am also running Darky's ROM, Gingerbread 7.7 and I did enable Voodoo in recovery.

Thanks

PS, I wasn't complainging about my speed, just curious as to why our phones have this problem and others don't.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Auzy:
The thoughts are that RFS has serious issues, however, in JPX, it seems to be fixed. Therefore these days I recommend using JPX rather than switching filesystem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtg2:
Note that not all phones suffer from lag. Why, I have no clue.

My family has 3 SGSs (i9000M) none of which have this problem. I installed a lag fix on my phone a while back to see what the fus was all about and it actually SIGNIFICANTLY hurt my performance. After removing it, everything went back to snappy speeds.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawkeye3:
True, the problem is the filesystem which simply 'gets stuck' and forces the applications to queue when there is too much activity (for example when the Market starts installing apps...).

The 2.2.1 firmware seems to have fixed this issue, at least on my I9000. (Not sure what Samsung have changed, one would have to check the RFS driver in the kernel for that.)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w98seeng:
Thanks all for the info.

It seems to me that Samsung has really dropped the ball with this phone. The SD card issue, the lag issue and the GPS issue.

I know that new technology can be a bit of a mess, but shoudln';t a manufacturer, especiallyu one as big as Samsung test their pruducts properly before coming to market?

Is it a matter of "Yes, we know there are problems with the phone, but we will make more money if we come to market now with a peice of crap"?

Or is it just that they made a mistake?

Ian
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omeryounos:
i have also upgraded to froyo stock 2.2.1. No lag so far. Seems like i was facing a slight lag when i was on stock 2.2.

I'm from Hyderabad, India and I too have purchased the LG Optimus 7 from Singapore (via a relative).

I have a cheapo bluetooth stereo headset, the Bluedio AV890.

While it worked perfectly fine with my older Nokia E51, the Optimus 7 does not recognize it. Will try another bluetooth device and tell you if it's a problem with the phone or the headset.
[Optimus 7 General] tsabasid:
Hi, I have the following problem in my LG Optimus 7.

I have it connected with the A2DP supported bluetooth headset Plantronics Boyager Pro UC V2, and all the system sounds, including sms and email alerts go to the headset due to the A2DP support. With Ringtones it's fine. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks in advance.
[Optimus 7 General] mrmoo:
hi,

I've just bought an optimus 7 as well (UK), and have the BLUETOOTH "perpetual searching" problem where it never finds any bluetooth device (despite me trying 3 bluetooth headsets which work just fine with every handset i've got from SE P900 through A HTC Touch Pro 2 - in fact all 3 show up when in pairing mode on the HTC screen while the LG just "searches")

I've called the UK LG support team who tell me this is NOT a hardware fault and they have MANY customers with the same problem - they say "its all microsoft's fault and are awaiting a software fix") .. they refuse to put this in writing !!!!!!!!!

Personally i think its a widespread LG design or manufactiuring/component fault as they have form for telling lies (either that or being systematically incompetant) to customers

I am about to write a formal letter to them asking them to confirm its a software issue and will be retified by a certain point in the future ... as a first step to dealing with the issue

I have had a pretty bad experience before with LG whereby for 6 months LG support were telling me the defective product would be rectified by a software update which never arrived - so we will see -

[Optimus 7 General] datpx:
Hi!

I have the same problem!
[Optimus 7 General] pujiesss:
me too.. bt not able to detect any device
[Optimus 7 General] mrmoo:
the other issue i have with the optimus 7 is that the vibrate function doesnt work as well (yep i have switched it on in settings)

But it does work if i go in the the MFG engineers testing app and test the vibrate function there

... so it looks like maybe LG could be guilty here of sloppy firmware/testing .. and i wonder if its the same with the bluetooth like they say (maybe they used batches of different bluetooth chipsets which subsequent updates didnt suport)

LG .. LG .. LG .. ggrrrrrrr
[Optimus 7 General] bevoc:
same here

took the device to lg center.

because my device was bought in october it is not eligible for 1for1 exchange.

ppl at lg told me that we have to wait for microsoft update, although i really doubt that a new update will fix the bluetooth issue. :mad:
[Optimus 7 General] kderh:
HW fault

I had the same problem right out of the box last November (no bt devices detected, only in very rare lucky cases).

Sent it in for repairs and since it came back some weeks later BT works so it seems like my device had a hw fault (or they updated some software, I dont know... but the case was opened)
[Optimus 7 General] mrmoo:
had a letter back from LG (uk) stating that there was no defect (bluetooth)with the optimus 7 line ... the letter went on to say that the many reported user problems were due to different bluetooth chipsets used (kind of ridiculous lg opening the letter with the no defects line then ... LOL)

no explanation of why their support team were refusing to repair/replace and stating it was a software issue and to wait for an update and head office (per my letter) stating theres no issue - completely opposite

so now i have to write back asking lg how i get the phone fixed if their support team refuse to accept its a hardware issue

if only we had class actions in the uk ... LG need the mother of class actions right up their rectum !

[Optimus 7 General] Every11s2RuleDWorld:
I'm using Sony Ericsson MW600 for months now and always with me when I'm driving. Love the sound quality of listening to the music using this Hi-Fi Wireless headset.

After using it for a while I found the tricks to get it working properly.

i) whenever I did reset on my LG E900 (now NoDo, previous build also worked for me), I needed to do the pairing again.

ii) make sure you try several times (on and off for both LG E900 and MW600) until MW600 is found and displayed in LG E900. Once MW600 is found it will remain there until next LG E900 reset and you have to repeat all over again.

iii) take note that you can get connected to MW600 without it being displayed as bluetooth device in LG E900. But it will not be stable. The best is to have it displayed in LG E900. If not connected, it will show MW600 is disconnected.

iv) If MW600 is not displayed in LG E900, sometimes you can only listen to the music or only answering phone without the music as it goes to the speaker phone instead. Sometimes also the music quality will be really bad not like normal. Therefore to avoid all this, do the pairing until MW600 is displayed in LG E900. Again you need to do this once after LG E900 reset.

v) Once everything is working well, I can control volume, forward to next music or go back to previous music, off or on the music. Also, not all applications or games can use MW600. I can confirm Angry Bird can use it but SuperTube cannot.

vi) BTW, when playing music using Zune in LG E900, please go to Songs and select "shuffle all" or you can create your own playlist using your PC and transfer the playlist to LG E900.

Hope it will work for someone who wants to invest in MW600 but take note it is a bit pricy ... at least in my country.

BTW, MW 600 can work with iPhone 4, Nokia phone (Symbian), WM6.1 and of course WP7. I can also connect to my Notebook with Windows 7. :)
[Optimus 7 General] mrmoo:
hi, as a follow up

its taken me 3 months to finally get LG to accept that this bluetooth issue is a fault and allow it to go in to their repair unit ...

just had it back today with an engineers report stating faulty motherboard replaced !!!!

LG in the UK are just aweful I.R.O. their warranty obligations ...

My advice (if youre UK) and they give you the runaround is to simply tell them you will be taking a small claims court action against them for the costs of the handset (or a replacement handset if you buy one and it costs more) plus your travel costs to/from court plus the court costs .. you can fill in the forms online and its only £20 or so

make sure you get things in writing/email/get names of LG staff and give them a couple of chances to remedy the situation and respond to your threat of court action.

Trading standards have received many complaints from LG customers along these lines so like i did make a formal complaint so its on file and at some point hopefully they will come down hard on LG

anyway I have touch wood a fully working phone now :-)
[Optimus 7 General] rythmm7:

GooDay to all...

Regarding the Bluetooth issue, I have tried every possible ways, finally when I called the LG, they simply says tht it is a HW fault and u have to replace frm where u have purchased...so I have to trvl all the way frm chennai to spore to settle the issue...

The 2nd worst part is...ZUNE....the marketplace is yet to be avlbl at India...sometime for a surprise the marketplace appears and with the same surprise it disappears... My friends I suggest u all to go for Andriod, Apple or Symbian phones than W7....:eek:

Hello dear ROM cookers and ROM posters.

You all know the question "What is new in this ROM" that occurs whenever a new ROM comes up.

I wrote a little bash (bash 4) script that does comparing ROMs.

It is not complete, but it compares the most important

information from build.prop and it does compare the

version numbers of the APK's included.

The ROMs to compare need to be already extracted (e.g. using dsixda's kitchen).

Example:

The output would then be (cutted - just an example):

Extracting information from ./OLD_WORKING/WORKING_010211_143807/
Number of APKs in the older ROM: 120
Extracting information from ./WORKING_010211_143834/
Number of APKs in the newer ROM: 138

Comparisation charts

WidgetDownloadManager 1.0 1 1.0 1
Quickoffice 3.2.93 93 3.2.80 80
comhtcMusicWidget 1.00 NONE 1.00 NONE

APK's that are only included in one ROM but not in the other are considered, too (see 'VoiceSearch' in the example above).

Fields marked with "NONE" are caused by not set versionName or versionCode.

Sometimes you'll find "package:" instead on NONE. I will filter that in a later version.

I hope some of you will find that very useful and have some ideas to improve that tool. Be welcome to update this script.

Please note that I wrote this script in an easy manner. I know that a lot of things could be done shorter but I made this script this way having "bash-beginners" like me in mind. Please keep it that way if you update something (remember KISS).

If you like this work and you want to donate, buy your Mother or Grandmother some flowers. They have earned it.

Ideas that could be added:

extract and compare kernel version

compare supported languages

Things not made well:

I put "aapt" from android-sdk-linux_86/platforms/android-4/tools/ into the package. Could that be downloaded from google automatically? Is it backwards-compatible to older SDK/NDK's?

for sure a lot more things

[Galaxy Tab General] NerdUno:
What used to be a simple patch to permit AT&T Galaxy Tabs to download apps from sites other than the Google Market is no more. We recently got our Tab back from the Samsung repair facility and it was wiped clean and loaded with a new Android version that now puts your Tab in an endless boot loop if you attempt to patch the config setup to permit downloads from outside Google Market.

Simple solution: DON'T BUY AT&T-BRANDED GALAXY TABS.

If there were some sort of unlimited data plan, this kind of behavior might be warranted but since AT&T charges by the amount of data you consume, there's really no excuse for crippling these devices... other than just being assholes! :mad:
[Galaxy Tab General] agentdr8:
Not entirely sure what you're referring to here. I have an AT&T SGT and it works just fine with sideloaded apps.

Did you run SuperOneClick root and then enable non-market apps?

Either way, nuke that horrid stock ROM with one of the Euro roms and you'll never have to worry about AT&T's crippled version again.
[Galaxy Tab General] NerdUno:
Yeah, but...

There still are a number of ways to root the phone, but the new checksummed firmware will make it extremely difficult to load custom roms with any hope of restoring an earlier firmware version. And, once you update your current version of Android, using the standard method of allowing non-market apps by changing the non-market apps entry in /dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.settings/settings.db will put the device into an endless boot loop when you restart it.

So, while it used to be simple, those days are over. No need to shoot the messenger. :cool:
