3g turn on

hy everyone,

i've been surfing the forum for some answers but didn;t found what i was looking for. How do i turn on my 3g connection? i'm connected only to GPRS.

Is it a rom problem? i've been using a sam c6625 and the 3g connection turned on automatically, only in areas with no 3g coverage i was using GPRS
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mokafeh:
so , you don't get the 3g icon in the taskbar ?? if you don't , that mean that you don't have 3g coverage ? what rom are you using ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] relilocco:
coverage

i do have 3g coverage, in the same place i have 3g on another phone.

maybe this could sound stupid, but how do i find out the version?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mokafeh:
go to setting , system and version , but i didn't ask for the version , i asked for the rom , i guess you still using wm6.0 or wm6.1 ? right ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sck78:
Double posted, cos forum gave me 5 minutes waited as a new comer. :-)

OK, new question.

The new rom from auto updater gave a new look, i'm happy to see my "Home".

Anyway, why it took longer to boot? compare with an official updater 6.1?

Oh yeah, how i can add apps in "Favorite" tab in Home/Today ?

Thanks.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sck78:
useful information :-)

is there any link for opera 10b3? i dont know what version of opera if we use m.opera.com from i780 to get the browser. is that 10b3?

repack & hybrid = 6.5.3 (update using mirage)

classic = 6.5.1 (update using mirage)

auto apdater = 6.5.??? (update by clicking exe file)

thanks bro.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mokafeh:
what's wrong with mouse ? , do you mean that it doesn't appear ? is so , you have to go to setting , system and change the mouse setting from 4pad to mouse ;)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hashtowent:

auto updater version

after using auto updater version for 2 weeks, finally i reflash to 6.1 again.

why?

- sometimes it freeze when the device turn off after n minutes setting. i couldnt wake it up by pressing a power button. it can only be fixed by take battery off.

- strange for palringo, if the system goes off after n minutes, when i press power button to wake it up, palringo error.. there still notification about palringo, but when you click, nothing happen.. only Ms reporting error.

- sometimes after the error, the system response become too slow.

- i cant find a recent programs where about. so i have to digging deep in menu to find a programs to start it again

+ but other than that, i like the rom's theme, style and appearance.

want to try other rom with manual update (only with mirage i think)

anyway, thanks heinaken and all guys here.

NB: why its so few posting here compare with others with the same device :-?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pupakota:
Heh, sorry for late reply..

I needed these for p750 experiment, i later realized, that these files will no help(different cpu dlls).

I would make rom for i780, unfortunately, i have no such device...i chose asus.

But if someone has one to spare...i can make some miraculous builds(my specialization: low mem usage/speed optimizations) :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gewgaw:
So my i780 is Portuguese from TMN but i unlocked it as soon as I bought so I could use it with Vodafone. I have never updated it or anything, mainly because i didn't have the time or patience to flash roms and stuff. I have found the time though and i have encountered a few problems thus far.

First, pressing the ALT (function) + Enter key while powering up DOES NOT get me to Detection mode, i don't know what will.

Second, using the automated updater from heinekken everything is recognized at first and i check the boxes e press Ok to reset my phone. But by doing so the phone resets and loses connection somehow, so then the Updater just says "time-out. Unable to access device. Try again"

I am quite desperate about this... It seems I will never be able to update this phone.

Thanks for your attention and expertise, you are certainly doing a great job keeping this community alive.

Thank you very much for this!! I was beginning to lose hope in expert's awareness of this thread. I will give this a try tonight.

Thanks again,

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gewgaw:
So I tried the app and it did not work. The problem is between the moment i click on the OK button (to reset the device) on the computer and the phone restarting. During that time the program cannot interact with it so it says "connection time-out".

I am guessing the only procedure to be done is this one, and if so... How is it possible to advance in the update procedure if my phone fails to pass the 1ST moment of reset?

Is there another way to update the phone without having to turn it off?

Thank you

hey

pls can u tell me how to auto update my i780? i have win 6.1 and pc connection doesn't work and some other features. PLS help me , i`m desperate
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gewgaw:
have you tried heinekken's wm6.5 full auto-install??

All you need is for activesync to recognize your phone, no outlook stuff needed just the pc recognition of the phone, and you are set for the install.

P.S - a fully charged battery helps too
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] homedog:
the phone works just in emergency mode, when i start normal he get stock at first windows logo, activesync wont recognize him, but mirage does, but every single rom i tried get stuck or gives error... :( (sorry 4 my english)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gewgaw:
did you try the ROM i mentioned? Try that one instead. Try the 6.1 first and then the 6.5 version. I am going to try to attach it here.

http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=d86fc601ac0d83010de4fc1039a01674e04e75f6e8ebb871

i believe it is under "Official Upgrades"

Good Luck!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] homedog:
i tried that, nothing works, i send it to a service, to a little service, they failed to repair it... now i send it to a big one , i hope they have more luck and more knowledge about samsung software, if not ... i don`t know what to do next

I want a swedish version of the 6.5 ROM. Do anyone know if it exist?

The swedish i780 have another keyboard layot than other variant. It look like this:

Is it possible to replace the Keyboard driver in an english 6.5 ROM to the driver from a swedish 6.1 ROM?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] heineken78:
You know that you will send your phone (if its not on garranty) to Jtag service afterwards? Also you will get many angry messages from ppl who followed you?

Dont even try it! This will brick i780 compeletly in first 10 sec of update :)

UNFORTUNATELY OFFICIAL EPIX EXE UPDATE RUNS FOR I780 WITHOUT ANY WARNING!!! ITS STARTS UPDATING BOOTLOADER. AFTER PROGRAM RESET YOU GETTING BRICK.:cool:

i780 and i907 are very different in hardware and nand memory access.

I have done this (experimentally) cos I have Jtag at home!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] snurrbo:
Sorry! I read somewhere that it should work right away but if You've tried it already You should know.

I edit my post so nobody get confused.

(Hardware is almost identical except for memory size and battery)

http://www.phonegg.com/compare/24/Samsung-SGH-i780-vs-Samsung-SGH-i907-Epix.html
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] heineken78:
Oops. this review on phonegg.com is totally wrong.

1. Modem (Phone) version - is same also in version number with latest epix update!!! (but filesize of phone.bin is different by 2 mb)

2. It does supports all phone features on both.

3. Memory 128/256 is on both too.

4. Chipset/processor is same too!

Different at least:

-1. Wifi.

-2. Memory managment.

-3. Another motherboard and battery controller...

So if updated bootloader from epix will start - it will give an internal error in 2st stage of OEM init (1st stage is processor init). So you will not be able to see even RED led on power btn press and not the booting anymore..

Im trying to find out if I can do something withit. But unfortunately Im already almost lost all hopes, cos there is no information about this task and there is no free time for experiments. There is only one surely way is to kill a Korean who has source codes of this device and recompile it for wm 6.5 or newest android..

I hate Sasmung cos they provided best hardware and producing cheapest software (that is homemade by users and bought for cents by samsung, not as HTC developing..) Crap page of samsung software developing: http://innovator.samsungmobile.com Looks like every kid can own a dollar for making a program for samsung that will appear in your next new device.. Also their Bada OS (r) Samsung is stolen from Android. Now Symbian is throwed away by Nokia (cos Nokia waked up after 5 years of ****making by loosing their profits and signed contract with MS for producing of WP7) is bought by Samsung. Now useless symbian power will be used by Samsung for develping of cheap clone of AndroWMSymbi to Bada.

For ROMs, use another my thread with ported epix 6.5 to i780. That rom is much more than official epix update.. but its still on 6.1 kernel from i780.. more i cant do for now.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] emjaygee:
could someone please help me? im starting to lose hope on saving my i780..

here's how it goes...

First, I have an i780 with the phone and pda version of DXHA1...

i've downloaded a PDXBI1 6.1 official update..

i was able to upgrade my i780 successfully..

it's been working very nice...i've installed mapking and it was ok..

but after some time, i made a hard reset... to my surprise, i was not able to run mapking anymore even after a fresh installation... i've tried everything and mapking was encountering an error that's why it can't run anymore.. i've tried lots of hard reset but it won't work anymore... the last resort i've tried is to re-update it with the official PDXBI1 6.1 software.. so i did the same thing.. installed it using the official updater.. the download and update was successful... but after i tried to unplug and open it, it just stayed forever on "SAMSUNG" boot screen.. it will take forever i think to continue... i've tried hard reset, and it took forever saying "FORMATTING" wait for the device to finish. i think there was a problem with the ROM.. so i used mirage updater. and upload first a PDA image.. but it still stay's the same.. so i've tried eboot+pda+phone.. after successful intallations on both, i was still stucked at SAMSUNG boot screen... i really love this device.. hope there is still hope.. could someone help me how to fix it? i would be really glad if i will be able to use this device again.. :(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] heineken78:
Dont worry. Till you are able to boot i780 (boot screen/download mode) you can always to revive it :)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] emjaygee:
thank you for your prompt response.. however, i think i've already tried one of your solutions... i've downloaded PDXBI1 by parts, and apply it to my phone by mirage updater.... too bad, i'm still stuck at SAMSUNG BOOT SCREEN.. it seems that, nothing happens.. im starting to feel weird about it.. as if im the only one experiencing it.. any idea? you are the best in making i780 ROM sir.. i saw your works, and haven't tried any of it yet.. due to my condition :(

Hi, it's about time i did something with my i780, was thinking of getting phone, sick of the orange branding on mine. But never made to the move to unbrand it with custom rom...beacause i have too many contacts, don't know how to back them up properly.

I780 UK Orange (unlocked for O2)

I have 6.1 Win Pro

PDA : i780PBVHK1

PHONE: i780PBVHK1

So what can i do to make my life easier with this phone??

MMS dont work.

Push mail don't work.

The volume switch on side bypasses my phone lock!! (this i hate the most.)

Internet on 02 dont work, Orange steals all associations and takes over, cant delete Orange!!

Having said that, i do love this phone, had it for 3 yrs!:D

Which is best rom in my case, or best next phone like i780??

Thanks for reading.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] heineken78:
Use my custom rom and apply epix keyboard driver i have posted somewhere that is modded to i780 (doesnt has volume clicks in lock).

There is no better phone in combination touch+keyboard than i780 yet.

b7350, I have tested , is only good if you hadnt i780 before. After i780 its worse in keyboard(feels like screen keyboard is much better than using of hardware keys), very poor speaker/sound, overfilled with useless samsung software (native wm software doesnt not work 100% without addittional software built in its rom cos of qualcom chipset. File memory free:~80-90mb in stock rom ;) ). Only plus is bright and bigger screen (with same res.320x320), fm reciever and totally useless video accelleration (with same chipset/video on HTC is producing 3x/4x bigger score in 3d tests).

Tested on my current rom:

Filesystem -wins b7350 by 20-30%!

Processor speed -wins i780 :)

tcmp player (divx) -i780 is faster by 20-30% (with IntelXScale driver/qualcom doesnt has support of this and other 3d drivers. In GDI mode score is almost same) :)

PS: after 3 days of playing with new(from box) b7350 i found 4 scratches on touchscreen(already), also battery cover dosnt looks promising, like all material explains its cost - about 190 dollars in our country...also it s trackpad is too small for man's finger such all buttons that is not possible to use with 2 hands typing and it doesnt has mouse in main part!

Conclusion: I would spend money to renew hardware (digitizer, oem) of i780 than buying this model.
