[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
So, i was pondering....

Instead of doing all the work required to mount the FFC (front facing camera) to a SGH-T959 vibrant

it might be simpler to just swap the radio component of the I9000 with a radio from a SGH-T959

according to the photos seen on the forum, it should be do-able, after all that's how Samsung is making the phones for Tmobile anyways :p

Now, if some one could point me to where i could get the radio component of the SGH-T959, that would be great :)

If any one ponders, the reason i'm doing this is because i like all the features of the I9000 series, but my phone provider works only on 1700+2100 (AWS) to get 3G

so, only having just 1 band 2100 it is not enough to establish a 3G connection, as it's missing the 1700 band.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] distortedloop:
Is the radio component modular?

I put the headphone jack/speaker assembly from a 959 into my i9000 so that I could use iPhone compatible headphones with it, but I ran into problems with the light sensor and proximity sensors not working. I tried using the drivers from a Vibrant ROM, but still wouldn't work, so I ended up going back to the original component.

I'm still not sure it's a bad idea, I suspect the components I got may have been bad. I may try again.

Good luck with the project; I'd love to see that work out. If it did, I'd do the same to my i9000 GT, since I'd love to have a SAMOLED phone that worked with both my T-Mo and AT&T sim cards.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sheltonmega:
Any luck on this?

I want to do exactly the same thing. Hope you find out how.

Thanks!

I know it has been made possible(thank you fine XDA Devs:)

But, how solid is it?

Battery - Seems good

Freezing?

Glitches

Hang Ups

Resets

Crashing apps

Not working random features?

Speed

I looked through pretty much the whole topic and I just find random issues all over the place. Some major, some not as much.

I am still running my Nexus One SD Build. It's pretty solid. Does have some random hang ups, crashes and no starts. But, rare maybe just a tiny bit more then my Custom Rommed Vibrant.

I kinda wanna know, since this is the way to go. A NAND build is more of a "true" OS then a SD build.

If you believe your NAND ROM setup is near a 100% I would love to see what combo you are using.

errrr NO it wouldn't be dude.

This is for posting DEV topic ONLY, ie for devs to post their work or projects etc, Not for n00b questions (no offence).

If you want to ask a question then you do it in the correct place ie the Q&A forum. You will get "NAND only experience replies" because that what's your topic is about.

Please dont spam the dev section, this isnt place for conversation topics.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] asim2002:
I have noted that the following common issues plague most of the NAND builds I have installed (have tried and used 4 so far):

1. Low in-call volume : there is a fix for this so no longer an issue but was almost a deal breaker.

2. Robotic voice when you make your first call or sometimes randomly.

3. Decreased battery life: this is what is annoying me the most as the battery runs out far more quickly than on WinMo... i dont believe all other claims coz I have tried all the builds personally and i can definitely tell a difference.

4. No TOMTOM for Android. This is very annoying. Copilot and Google Nav just does not cut it for me (agreed this has nothing to do with NAND ROMs but just mentioning it as an issue for me)

Overall I would keep this for my phone if it wasnt for the BATTERY issue which is a deal breaker for me !! I may well go back to WinMo due to this. I definitely need longer battery life than NAND can provide right now.

Its you who needs to stfu or ctfo!

If you want worthwhile answers you should post your question in the correct place.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] NickPP:
It's alright bro, ignore them.

I thought NAND would be made a reality if and only when all the bugs were straightened out and the ROM was deemed NANDworthy? I thought that super RAM or SD builds were fine until such a time a jump to NAND seemed logical going forward.

I think NAND is serving the sole purpose right now for those that absolutely hated WM and get rid of WM completely although I don't see how WM would have come in the way of a super ram or SD build anyway.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fabsen:
1. only the first sd-builds got the issue, never had with "out-of-beta-state" nand builds.

2. true, have this on every build exact ONE time after flash, then never again.

3. this point is shocking me... i was using stock and custom roms (atermis / HD2O) for 6 months and i have to say that windows have the most ****ed up battery management i've ever seen. randomly 15-85mA in standby with data connections and syncs turned off. that's very ugly and you have to charge the phone nearly every day... on android nand builds i usually have 2-5mA without data connections turned on. with data turned on ~8mA.

4. well... imo tomtom is the worsest and most ugly nav system ever spread. i prefer igo or navigon. i don't need a crappy bruce willis voice on my navigator, i'm a fan of 3d navigation with nice animated functions and nice instructions ;)

at least you can use google navigation with sattelite view turned on.

BTT:

you should use a build made for daily usage... no ginger-stuck-crap or som bloated releases with crapware installed.

just my 2 cents...

my setup:

miui-rom 1.1.7

kernel: 2.6.32.15-prjv3

radio: 2.15.50.14

NAND is awesome

i got this phone because i know NAND would be avaliable.

I played around with winmo for a few days and that was nightmare

Now I stand proudly against those with EVO / DesireHD in their hands/
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samson_420:
LoL. . . . Yeah. I love the internet bad asses.

Some how I strongly doubt that any of these posting trolls would say any of this BS to my face.

The biggest issue I am seeing in my SD build is file corruption after a semi extended period of time(at least a week or two).

But, NAND does not seem 100% so far - THE REASON FOR THIS THREAD. . . . Geez

It should be a sticky so people know what to expect and not just flash the living crap out of their phones.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jonny68:
Nowhere near as fast as SUPERAM (Darkstones build) but tomorrow i believe Darkstone will be releasing a NAND/RAM combo so this is yet another excellent advancement in Android development.:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xeebot:
You're really a tough guy aren't you? Seems to me you're the only internet bad ass around here telling people to STFU. I'd love to say this to your face, but I'm sure you're some 12 year old troll who thinks he's the ****.

Not surprised in the least that you're in AZ, that **** hole is full of fake ass wanna be hard core **** heads like you. Why don't you have your mommy drive you out of that desert **** hole to LA, I'll be happy to say many things to your face.

How's that for internet bad ass?

Figured perhaps a bug thread for the Rogers 2.2 update may be in order?

Not sure if this is a bug or not, but it does seem a bit odd. The lock screen usually has the text "swipe screen to unlock" or something to that nature (the part with the <<< and >>>) - mine had it to begin with in 2.2, however now it has dissapeared and I just see the little lock icon saying the phone is locked. Is there any way to get it back or is this a 2.2 "feature" so you see more of your background?

The 2nd problem I noticed I have already started a thread on (and no replies :() - it deals with contact linking and Facebook. Seems something is whacky there too possibly. The thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=907088
[Captivate General] Enhanced:
Definitely a feature. I love the clearer lock screen.

Bug: Haptic feedback vibration is very low system wide (not including soft keys).

Bug: Voice Dialer (Voice Dialler) is misspelled in the App Drawer.

Bug: Going to Settings > Display > Font Style causes a crash.

All I remember so far but there has been several.
[Captivate General] j.smith:
Confirmed feature of Froyo, or is this a Rogers/Samsung specific feature? Just wondering because it WAS showing up for a few lock screens right after the upgrade, then eventually stopped showing up - reboot/battery reset didn't get it back... haven't tried a factory reset yet to see if that fixes it (if it's broke).

No problems here - did you have it set to a custom/non default font when upgrading? I had mine on default (I prefer that to any other font) and have no issues changing fonts.
[Captivate General] rnewton01:
I've had some issues with wifi losing it's internet / market connection after wake up sometimes. shows still connected, but no network access. i have to turn wifi off, then back on occasionally.
[Captivate General] j.smith:
Go to Settings -> Wireless and network -> Wi-Fi settings. From this screen, hit your menu key and select Advanced and try changing your Wi-Fi sleep policy to Never... perhaps it's set to "When screen turns off" causing you to lose Wi-Fi whenever you lock your phone?
[Captivate General] j.smith:
Oh, another bug possibly...

Go to Camera app and open Settings. Open the wrench tab and go to the 2nd page. Click the Update button beside Firmware update. Either of the next two menu choices ("Check version by network" or "Firmware update") seem to freeze the phone (power off required). Doesn't seem to happen all the time, but my first time trying to get the update to do something caused the phone to lock up in to camera mode.

Also, the "It will occur additional fee." message is quite fun... no idea what fees I will incur, or for what reason (and I won't even get in to the grammar issues).
[Captivate General] Enhanced:
Well it can't be a Froyo feature because no other manufactures use the same lock screen as they do. So it's a Samsung feature brought on by Froyo. Simply, it can't be a bug.

Yeah, I had to it some other font besides the default font...guess I'm screwed now? Bugs like these make me more anxious to get real Froyo.
[Captivate General] shawn122:
This is real Froyo from Rogers.
[Captivate General] sirknattar:
Anyone noticing that it's very glitchy and not smooth?
[Captivate General] rye&ginger:
Its much faster and smoother than 2.1 stock was for me. Did you set it up fresh? Older settings can cause issues.

you guys have this issue? you may not even know it until you try to use mass storage mode. I use iSyncr (lets me use smart playlists based on ratings) so I need mass storage mode.

[Captivate General] gunstar3035:
My wife and I (each have a Captivate) have had none of the bugs you guys have mentioned.

All we have experienced is a faster phone and WAY better battery life.

The only thing that upset me is that the update deleted my Ocean Wave livewallpaper, but I just redownloaded it.

Did some of you guys experiencing bugs ever run a custom ROM? I am thinking maybe these issues might be because you did...
[Captivate General] Culverin:
Re: Haptic Feedback.

I've noticed it too, it's much weaker than before.

I could have sworn that I saw the option to turn up the intensity before, but can't find it now. :confused:
[Captivate General] Jeffu:
I want to update, but all these bugs are not very comforting :(
[Captivate General] shawn122:
Go for it..I installed it and so far the improvements have been great over 2.1

Battery life is much improved, its faster than stock 2.1 (and after applying Ryan's OCLF...its incredibly responsive)

If you do have a lagfix installed prior to upgrading you should uninstall that first. Thats what I did and didn't have much problems. my one issue with Swype was fixed by clearing the cache.
[Captivate General] Jeffu:
I gave it a go on your recommendation. :) Updated with no issues, now to actually try using it...
[Captivate General] vercro:
Has anyone rooted after applying 2.2? If so, what did you use?
[Captivate General] eNdblu:
I've been having issues turning on WiFi on my phone ever since I installed the update.

I accidentally clicked Airplane mode on my phone this morning, now my phone has been trying to turn the WiFi back on for about 5 mins....

As for battery life, my phone the first few days after installing Froyo seemed great, but now it doesn't really seem as good? No idea why....

And I've noticed a bit of lag at times while navigating on my phone.

Using LauncherPro Plus as my home screen, haven't rooted or installed any roms or anything.
[Captivate General] sansaman:
I have noticed that when you turn the phone on from when it is off, if you don't wait for the wallpaper to display before swiping your phone on, the phone will stall. Mine stalled for about 5 minutes before it responded again.
[Captivate General] artinz:
I'm having a couple of small issues:

1) I can't get the GPS to look position. It just displays "Waiting for Location" and sits there.

2) OCLG - I got about 1000 on quadrant score. It doesn't seem laggy but I wanted to apply this lagfix to see if it can be better. I tried runnig the first option in the menu (z4 rooting), and it tries to launch either a page or the market (not sure which) but says "Page Not Found", but when you close it and press back, it says the root was successful, but all the other options are still "unavailable" so I can't apply the lagfix. There's a second method in the menu to do a root and that one fails as well, so I'm not sure how to get this working.

3) Camera - I got the same problem as a previous poster for the firmware update where it says "fees will occur" then when I click "yes", it tries to launch a page/market (again not sure) and says "Page Not Found".

4) Rooting - not sure how to root because the previous method of putting my update.zip and doing it through the recovery menu fails.

Any help is appreciated.
[Captivate General] Sozzo:
I was running rooted lagfixed stock Rogers 2.1 before. Removed lagfix first and did a factory reset before updating to 2.2 through Kies.

After updating to 2.2 I re-rooted and lagfixed with no issue.

Things bugs I have noticed on my phone:

- Camera a few times had started up with a black screen only with usual camera options but it's as if it does not see anything from the lens (had done camera fw update on it. You can download it from Samsung Apps app)

- When viewing "Contacts" can't press Back button to exit it so I just press Home button. Small bug

- can't set up smtp outbound email settings on stock email app. Keep getting it can't connect with server even when manually inputting correct settings.

- Battery undetermined as i've been playing with GPS a lot testing it so it drains pretty quick.

- GPS - Had no problems with 2.1 (using GPS + "Use wireless networks") but it's been horrible on 2.2. Locks ok when stationary, fluctuating between 5-9 satellite locks (used lbstestmode to check) but when you are moving or when using it for Navigation, it will be ok for a short bit then would eventually start bouncing all over the place or start getting weak/lost locks. Was using it on the hwy one time and it would suddenly tell me to do a u-turn because it thought I was on a side road. (condition was clear and phone was by windshield).

What it did fix for me:

- Opening Gallery before would sometimes lock up the phone requiring battery pull in 2.1. Fixed for me with 2.2

- Running latest updated Maps would sometimes lock up the phone requiring battery pull in 2.1. Fixed for me with 2.2 but still somewhat useless because of issue mentioned previously.

I can live with all the bugs except for the abismal gps.

I was running oclf bur still found it laggy. Unistalled and flashed supercurios kernel with voodoo. Running awesome now. Plus I have access. To clockwork recovery now.

For root

Hey guys, this root method works on Rogers Froyo for Captivate

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

That's what I used. z4root no longer works.

Edit: same as mentioned above but with link
[Captivate General] artinz:
Fantastic! thank you so much! Rooting worked perfectly. Still need the OCLG app to apply the lag fix though and that ran perfectly as well.

Quadrant score is 1885 now with no other optimizations.

Now if I can just get the damn Camera firmware to be upgraded it would be fantastic...
[Captivate General] Jeffu:
So, after a night of using it, mucking around with Z4root and finding it to not work, I've successfully installed OCLF. Feels a bit laggy at times still. Quadrant score is 1800+ but I don't think that really counts for anything.

My phone vibrates randomly sometimes. I think I've read somewhere on this being an issue... is there a fix?

edit: okay maybe not that laggy haha :D

edit2: very glad I updated, applied a lot of the fixes in SGS Tools... very happy now. GPS performance about the same (crappy), otherwise things seem to be running well.
[Captivate General] Akalon:
If you open the app drawer and go to the Samsung Apps button there is a camera firmware update in the list of apps. I installed that way and it worked perfectly. The camera as far as I noticed is much improved now.
[Captivate General] wiggly-puff:
The only bug I think I've noticed is that my Swype keyboard doesn't work anymore. It even kind of freezers the phone. Someone mentioned clearing the cache - which cache and how?

GPS still works and has always worked for me.
[Captivate General] GAMacky:
1. Go into recovery mode - power off, hold vol +, -, and power

2. Select "delete cache data" by using vol- 3 times and then power to select.

3. reboot.
[Captivate General] wiggly-puff:
Thanks, hasn't seemed to get Swype working though.
[Captivate General] Enhanced:
Bug: Cannot change system font. When you install a new system font (.apk) and then go into Settings to change font, it will crash. It will continue to crash until you uninstall the new system font.

EDIT: Nevermind, it was just a bug with the font I chose.
[Captivate General] Ymodem-G:
BUG: Contacts application will not close. When I exit the application using the back button, it remains active in memory and sucks up 20 to 40 megs of ram.
[Captivate General] Ymodem-G:
BUG: Proximity sensor is screwed up. If you hold the phone on your shoulder without using your hands, as soon as the phone is on that angle the screen turns on and your face starts hitting buttons.

How annoying.
[Captivate General] outcastrc:
I have a few that I have noticed since installing froyo...

I can't keep screen rotation working. It worked in the beginning and then refused to go into landscape. After the factory reset I was able to get landscape to work again. But then I ended up stuck in landscape mode and had to turn off the phone to get it back to normal. Now I can't get it to go back to landscape again... Other then the factory reset I have also tried calibrating my accelerometer to no avail.

The home dock app this morning refused to close (I have the dock, so the app ran all night). Anytime I hit the home button it just started the home dock app back up. I had to turn off the phone again to stop it from driving me nuts.

The factory reset didn't seem to help other then make me lose everything. I have done it before on 2.1 and I don't recall losing my camera photos and downloaded files, etc. before. I expected to have to reset all my log ins and email accounts... But everything on my SD (internal and external) is gone other then my pics and vids directories... Not happy about this one at all...

And I would like to know where the Bluetooth voice dialing is!!! I though that it was supposed to be part of this update!
[Captivate General] mr. grieves:
After the upgrade my phone vibrates intermittently for no apparent resaon. The system also locks up at least once per day requiring a battery pull to restart - something I never had to do before the upgrade.

The phone seems to work great for the first 2-3 hours I have it on, noticeably improved response time, gps seems better. After 2-3 hours it starts lagging, vibrating and inevitably locks up. Not impressed, wish I could go back. I can't even be sure it was upgraded 100% properly due to the convuluted and ridiculous process required to flash the new firmware.
[Captivate General] chinesedevil:
Just tested this, the proximity sensor definately works when the phone is upright, but as soon as it goes horizontal it doesn't do anything. i.e even covering sensor with finger does nothing.

Not sure if this is a design for ppl looking for contacts or **** while in a call or not lol.
[Captivate General] Ymodem-G:
Yes you can reproduce the problem easily.

1. Make a phone call

2. Set phone flat on its back on a table

3. Cover the sensor with your finger.
[Captivate General] chinesedevil:
Anyone see less ram after the upgrade?

I had I believe 326 on Eclair but on Froyo only 304?

I'm running this on AT&T, of course I had to add my apn, on an i897.

No bugs to speak of.

Running speedmod K12L and a TLJL3 modem.

My "Canadian" phone flies.

I had to waste the Rogers control software to get my tethering to cooperate, but that's not a "bug" as it's intended behavior. Carved out the Rogers and Samsung software, too, and she's clean as a whistle.
