[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] phalanger:
Excellent! Wonder if theres any new improvements in this firmware. Anybody try it yet?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thommy86:
only for the netherlands?

what version is this I9003XXJL9?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] phalanger:
NB for those about to try: be ware of possible new bootloaders that may lock you into stock fw's.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bandis710:
:) Sound great, a new firmware for my own country .. I hope there are not much changes in the framework, so all JPY themes can be used .. I am otherwise affraid there will not be much themes for this version because there aren't that many dutch.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Pietplezier:
Nice!. Will this release used with KIES? or just a beta update?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MikeePA:
It's available on Kies to GT-I9000HKDXEN phones.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lownoise:
There are no Bootloaders in this firmware
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lownoise:
Based on JPY

I'm running XXJPY (with CSC XENJP2).

Can I flash XWJS3 with Odin (unzip and flash .tar file in PDA)? Or do I have to re-flash to XWJPA and then flash to XWJS3?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] VicenteNL:
Can anyone report the MODEM version of this ROM?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xda2k:
The modem version is JPY, at least Kies is showing me. Haven't done the upgrade yet, battery charge... :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gardien:
I have installed from JPY version. Seems a bit faster again. Kernel 2.6.32.9 root@SE-S608 #2
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] silverstorm:
The fact that this ROM is numbered JS3, instead of JPY (all letters), does it suggest it is more stable?

I was under the impression Samsung use two letters and a number for stable firmware releases (e.g JM1,JP8) and three letters for beta or 'works in progress' (e.g. JPM, JPO etc.)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jannoi:
Did anyone test this version yet? and can i still use a laggfix? because i heared this version has a lot of fixes especially due speed problems with earlier 2.2 versions for the galaxy S.

It would be ideal if i don't need a lagg fix anymore.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gardien:
I used Voodoo fixlag before going to JPY which was not quite as fast as Voodoo but came close. Now with JS3 I can say that is at least as fast. Will have to see over time but for now it flies :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Qazz~:
Ive never used any lagfix for any 2.2.1 Roms as they've been fast enough =)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MikeePA:
Anyone knows anything about ROM/Swype languages?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Pino112:
Is this rom faster than Doc or Darky's rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] boliveira2:
So, is the browser really better in this firmware? If you browse to xda developers forum main page, it's smooth scrolling and zooming?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lownoise:
Yes this JPY :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] [Ramad]:
That will work on both 512.pit and 803.pit files, I can see that you have added the empty dbdata.rfs to PDA tar file, however, you might need to compress these files as zip or rar because of there size, the PDA-I9000XWJS3.tar.md5 is about 271MB in size, if you zip compress it then it will be around 170MB in size and that is about 100MB less when downloading as a user.

Good work any way.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lownoise:
Thanks!

I've zip compressed the files and indeed they are mutch smaller now;)

Did you test it also:confused:

If so i'll upload the zip files and modify the first post
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] [Ramad]:
I don't have to test, if you have made the tar.md5 files on a linux distro then they will work, but they will not work if you have used 7zip.

I do these kind of flash packages for Odin when I need to flash, you can always mix and match as you like.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Lukeenho:
That doesn´t work for me. I see only android stock apps with SGS Tools, not Samsung ones (as mentioned above). How to remove those? I really don´t want them, please help :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lownoise:
Yeah the files are made on Debian:D

Thanks Again
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
II moved from JPY but didnt experience that on market.....so far, no issues
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Davith:
@lownoise

It's working great. Used the JS3 pda and phone file and the XEFJP3 CSC (for France). I also ticked re-partition to do a clean install.

Installation via Odin worked perfect. I actually like this method because it allows me to start from scratch.

Thanks a lot!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
Open SGS Tools / Clean up System apps, then hit menu button and press "advanced mode"

Handle with care
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lownoise:
Wonderfull thanks for testing ;)

Did you use the 512 pit file:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Davith:
Yes, 512 pit.

I guess you can add your files in the first post.

Also, what you could do is link this topic from Richtofen in it as well (and thank him!). It contains CSC from many countries:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=844459
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
Why you think an alternative method is needed?

Btw I upgraded via Kies and the modem is still JPY ( only PDA and CSC is JS3)

I wonder if JS3 modem is better

« »
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Laum:
JS3 modem is JPY. They did not update it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lownoise:
i'll do that;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Davith:
Because:

- it allows users to use CSC from their own countries (I myself used the french XEF CSC from an older 2.2 firmware) and not the Dutch or Finish one

- you can re-partition, which makes the installation somewhat "cleaner"
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbiermann:
Accu problem fixed

Version runs stable so far and the accu problem from the xpy fw seems to be fixed.:p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tmeulenm:
Contact keeps running in background

Did this update yesterday.

Seems phone is faster.

If i open Contacts (Contacten in NL), this stays open (runs in background).

This wasn't the case in the previous version.

More people this problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] boliveira2:
Guys, let's talk about the important bits. Is the browser lag fixed or not? Browse to xda main forum page and scroll/zoom to see if it's smooth or not. Thanks :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lownoise:
Comparing with opera mobile it is not smooth on the xda main forum!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gazmon:
this is this best my phone has been, very smooth and quick

JS3 and Hardcore speedmod latest (19 jan) all tweaks enabled, lagfix

JS3 definite improvement
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Pierreken:
I've applied all three files (PDA, PHONE and CSC (XEN) using ODIN and then also aplied Speedmod K12p and evrything seems to be working smooth but I did see the following problems:

- Vignette and Camera360 do not work (saw this on JPY as well, fix is posted here somewhere but I've not tried it yet. Not really a problem because by the time I need this application a new firmware is out already :-)

- Language problem: In some dialogues the language does not appear correct. For example

- Browser: where it asks you to remember login information you'll have 3 choices but now they are showing: "Never" - "You Do Not Have" - "Text Copied To"

- Statusbar: When disabling Wifi it shows: Use by default

- Statusbar: When enabling Wifi it shows: Complete action

- Same for Bluetooth

Stausbar: when new e-mail has arrived or a new application has been installes you can normalle press the key "Clear All" to remove all messages. Now this button is showing "Ongoing"

- Unlock screen: only showing the text "To unlock", I thought it used to you have slide it as well (not sure about this one though)

Anyone else having these? If not I guess I'll have to start over with a complete new install.

Pierreken
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Davith:
I'm not getting any of these issues. Did you install a circle battery mod or something ? Could be you messed up the framework file ?

You might want to flash it again with re-partition (though you'll lose your apps and settings).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mr_at_sgs:
concerning /system

Excuse me please, I have to add something.

I'm using 512 pit at Docs 8.1.1 XXJPY with your kernel.

A busybox df -h:

stl9 277.7M total, 223.4M used, 54.3M available

/system is ext4

Amazing how much better a custom ROM is in concern of used space.

I don't use some TouchWiz things and deleted some Livewallpapers from Samsung. If we use a bigger /system there must be a partition with fewer space, right?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Pierreken:
That's correct and I had to use the battery mod from JPY. It's quite possible that this is the reason.

I'm now starting a reflash through KIES instead of Odin where the modem is actually JPY and PDA and CSC JS3
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Davith:
But then you'll most likely have the same issue if you install again the JPY Circle Mod that's not intended for the JS3 firmware.

I don't think it matters whether you flash through Kies or Odin (even with a different modem and/or CSC).

I suggest you use this small how-to to make your own Circle Mod (thanks goes to kalpik for it):

Or you can go on the Battery Mod repository topic to make a request for a JS3 compatible mod.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Pierreken:
Thanks, you're right, the mod does show the same issues after applying it on JS3 with JPY modem.

I'll have to use the manual method.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gazmon:
Be aware battery icon mods and js3 will screw the phone
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Davith:
Only if you use a mod that's not intended for your firmware (usually it will mess up some texts and languages).

I have made my own mod using this how-to and it's working perfectly fine. Everything's normal.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] droidgt:
I have been using JPY for couple of weeks now and I am very happy with the performance.

Can somebody confirm whether the following issues in JPY has been fixed in JS3?

Browser showing boxes when zooming

Battery level never goes beyond 98%

/dbdata/databases/[app_folder] is not removed when uninstalling the apps
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tommy1971:
wrong post, please help delete it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jutezak:
I'm quite happy with the new firmware. Contrary what others say, Samsung is doing a decent job in getting updates to us. Just compare to SE or Moto.

Market is fast now, but browser pinch zoom seems slower than with 2.2. GPS seems to react quicker, for example. And we'll see if the gallery sensor bug is fixed. Browser still uses a lot of RAM.

Remember Samsung are a consumer electronics company with millions of devices in the world that they are responsible for. If they mess up something they might have to service them all. Even if it needs only 10 minutes with a jig and Odin this would amount to a huge cost (a shop in europe or the US will probably charge 10-20 dollars or euro to do just that, and the unhappy customer has a cost too). And perfect software will be messed up by a percentage of consumers because of power failure, PC problems, etc. Thus it is expected that they care about stability of the relaesed software and keeping the number of releases a bit limited. Things in software can go wrong in unexpected ways.

Just tested Samsung keyboard for a while, to confirm what I suspected
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jutezak:
I had high battery usage and found (with Spare Parts) that Maps and Torque had been using sensors all the time even when I used both only a few minutes.

I've now disable sensor use in the location preferences and reinstalled the updates to Maps. Rebooted the phone and a short run of both apps, and it seems the sensor problem is gone for maps. Toque still has the problems, reinstalling now.

Still I have cases where after closing a GPS program the icon keeps being shown. Similar to keeping sensors opened...

i'm trying to update to this with kies 1.5.3.10103.102, my phone has XXJPP, i used the registry hack with the same settings i should i guess:

"Enable spoof: True

Spoof product code as: XEN

Spoof software revision as: I9000XXJF3/I9000XENJF1/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3

And, my kies version is 1.5.3.10103.102

Also, advanced 1, Kies update server set default"

and still, i can only update to JPP (which i currently have)..

if i set the hack to NEE, i could update to JS3. any thoughts?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ragin:
Is there a changelog somewhere?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jutezak:
@spiderex: the display dropping has likely nothing to do with the actual charge, but only with an inaccurate display.

Given that a battery display is never accurate, it is probably better this way. Less optimistic perhaps, and maybe even better than before.

Contacts app is behaving slow for some reason.

That's why it lags while saving stuff. I don't know why.

I have no other accounts linked except Google Contacts. (No facebook, twitter junk)

However, contacts app refreshes in 2-3 seconds instead of coming instantly.

I have 72 contacts and more than 60 of them don't even have pictures attached.

Found an issue with JS3.. The option to set the modem radio to GSM only is missing, they only allow CDMA/GSM(Auto) or CDMA only. This is a huge pain as I always used to keep my radio on GSM only to save battery unless I wanted HSPA. Does anyone have any idea if it's possible to get this setting back please? I get a rubbish 3G signal at work and the modem tends to chew battery while trying to make a 3G connection all day :(

Hi, why you just don't long press the power button and select or unselect the "Data network mode". It is much faster than doing that from menus...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
Interesting...I have all 3 options.

But what battery drain concerns, there is no much difference between "gsm only" and GSM/WCDMA (auto mode) as long as you have "Use Packet Data" DISABLED because that concerns 3g 4g ( data network mode).

You find these settings at: Settings / Wireless and network / Mobile networks
