Mota converted /data, /system, and /cache successfully to ext2 instead of rfs. This made i/O instantly jump from 400 to 1300.

This is a big jump, and I notice a huge difference in the responsiveness of my phone! Trust me, this ROM is perfect! :D

For now, this is one of the best ROMs for i5800 imo. Mota is still piecing all the files together. It's working, but right now there are a couple bat files and .tar files that need to be ran and flashed to the phone. So Mota is going to fix this up and release his ROM.

But just to update, the ROM is working perfectly. No bugs for me yet!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
Sounds good so far, time will show how ext2 behaves...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kenblat:
WOW look promising, pls help update the status for this 1st custom ROM.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] EdisDee:
any predictions on release date of this ROM?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Gsam101:
Well, it's the score you'll have with Lagfix v2 in fact. ext2 is not an interesting solution at all. That's why we need ext4.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
ext4 is not possible as long as there are no kernel sources to compile against... but having all on native ext2 surely has some advantages over a loop device.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Gsam101:
I agree.

Mh.. I tried it, it seems that it's slower than a loop device (for some strange reasons).. Also, you won't check the filesystem if you do so, that will cause problems..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
Yes, but you can't argue with the battery life. It lasts easily twice as long as any other ROM I've tried. Took three and a half days of moderate usage to drain the battery dry.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] EdisDee:
ext2 is better than ext3 and ext4 because of journaling decreases your sd card lifetime.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
I would suggest a few things to mota :

1. Bring Transparency at as many places as possible with slight blur effect.

2. Add various animations like Fly-In, Fold or Bounce. Fly-In being my favourite ;-)

No, seriously it brings a lot new dimension to the UI.

3. Themable.

4. Remove a few un-needed default apps (we can have polls for this) like Layar,

Memo, Write-n-go, etc.

5. Tweak startup services and processes.

Good Luck !
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] drajax:
I AGREE WITH REX4U ESP THE 3,4 AND 5 points :P:P :rolleyes::rolleyes:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] stubborn_d0nkey:
A rooted user could pretty much do all of that themselves
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
True but everybody does not have the knowledge and I don't want any beginner to break their device or its functionality. So give them a fully loaded device(ROM)

;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Benjamin_L:
I think we should all request JPF sourcecode on opensource.samsung.com, as service center are using it already. I did so just a few minutes ago.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] god_md5:
but it for 5500 and 5503,5508 is not support

is not for 5800 and 5801..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Benjamin_L:
Did you read the thread? He is already porting it to the 5800...

Release of a GALAXY 3 Custom ROM

More info about this custom ROM at:

http://forum.g5devteam.com/index.php?/topic/30-first-build-released/

There's already a first release here:

http://www.multiupload.com/O2RNIQFYSL

Before flashing read the above thread...

And no, I haven't tested it...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] srnoth:
Seems to be working so far... loading back my titanium backup.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] snowcloud:
In your earlier post you have told that there is increase in quadrant score in 3D area but here it is same as any previous firmwares.

Sent from my GT-I5800
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] srnoth:
I notice the Clock, Calender and Memo apps are missing... seems to me that at least the clock should have remained... an alarm function is a basic requirement for phones. Now I'm supposed to be going to bed and instead searching for an alarm app so I wake up in the morning lolol.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jazux:
.

hope its good... flashin jpf and then motafoca ROM.

ok so i flashed jpf and motafoca´s ROM and its pretty good (i dont like the launcher so much ill use adw ex) now i will watch battery and install some apps
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] stubborn_d0nkey:
It pretty much comes down to installing adw ex and an app that can uninstall system apps (this requires root)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Cygnuss:
OK just flashed this and the phone really feels much faster, though the keypad 4x3 is missing hope its fixed soon (using better keyboard now) other then that very good firmware with some apps deleted and a new laucher though i rather stick with launcher Pro.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
The quadrant increases were for the newer unstable version of this firmware using a script that converts /data and /cache to ext2 as well. I can link you to a copy of Mota's script, but it isn't fully stable and tested yet. Hoping to test more tonight.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
I can send you the APKs of Clock, Calendar, and Memo when I get home. You're right though, Those three should be defaulted in.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jazux:
soooooo... when is it coming out? if you need more testers im willing to help :D
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
I'm waiting for Mota to see when he has time :P The files are on my laptop at home, I can send you the script when I'm home and that way we can see if it works on your i5800 :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jazux:
Ok. Sounds good
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Thom47:
Flashed it successfully, applied the lagfix and changed the launcher to Advanced launcher pro. Quatrant is pretty much the same, 540 but that wasn't even supposed to be changed.

System is a lot more responsive, boot time is ~40seconds.

Could you send em to me too? Thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
Okay Here is the link to the EXT2 conversion, and missing APKs. Please note that I, nor Motafoca, take responsibility for any damage that may occur to your phone, your computer (out of your frustration), or your mental/physical well-being (due to rising stress levels). :)

Instructions on using the EXT2 conversion:

1. Plug phone in with USB Debugging turned on.

2. Run MAKEEXT2.bat

3. Sit back and pray.

Warning: I don't recommend you trying the ext2 conversion yet, as it does not seem to let the phone boot up every time and can become extremely annoying. So do it only if you're willing to accept this possible repercussions.

The Missing APKS are found in the folder inside another folder labelled "MISSING APKS"!

Enjoy :)

Also, please note that I take no credibility for the batch file. Motafoca did an awesome job compiling and creating all these utilities. If you want to thank someone, thank him. I'm only the tester :)

Download link: http://multiupload.com/O2ET4B8K0A

Edit:: I realize the download link says i5508 but it was created for the i5800. Sorry about the miss labelling.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
Yes, if you reflash PDA it will load back to before. It won't brick your phone.

Edit:: I got it working on my phone right now. But just testing the stability. So far it hasn't crashed in a couple days!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Thom47:
Thanks. Anyone wondering how to get these working (Well, if you are you shouldn't even be in this situation, but I'm being nice): You need to adb push them to system/app

adb push ClockPackage.apk system/app

adb push ClockPackage.odex system/app

etc.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
This is my current Quadrant score after removing the APKs that I didn't want to have on my phone, and installing calendar, memo, etc etc.

http://www.imageupload.org/?di=4129661566112

(This is using Motafoca's EXT2 conversion batch file).

Don't be scared to test it, but, note that it will ONLY work if you already have his PDA ROM flashed and running. Here are some steps to getting the batch file to work.

1. Flash PDA version.

2. Hard reset, reboot into home screen of PDA version.

3. Reboot the phone once.

4. Put into USB Debugging, run makeext2.bat.

5. Let phone reboot.

Troubleshooting:

If your phone doesn't start, don't panic! Run the makeext2.bat again while the phone is stuck at the samsung logo. Run it one, two, three times if it doesn't work. Usually this kicks it into gear and it works. If it REALLY doesn't work, reflash PDA version and stick with that for now :) But i've managed to get it working flawlessly with these quadrant scores.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jazux:
umm.... does this work if you have lagfix v2?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] nastyba:
can you please implement Slovak Swype in it ? I use JPA because there is slovak swype database - thanks :)

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
Hm, I'm not sure. I never installed lagfix. So I never tested with it :S
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
Alright, if you think so!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] EdisDee:
very strange but it is... WORKING!!! it's working like a charm for me. even gps is working. proximity sensor working. everything working like it should. thank you very much for this. you are my hero motafoca. how can i donate some $? maybe it will help you finish your custom rom for i5800 ;)

Hello, don't know after what action it happened but now my pc don't find my sd card when i connect it in mass storage mode. Maybe any one now what happened?

I installed motafoca rom and that ext2 script, everything is working perfect, but can't connect my sd card, and kies don't find my phone too.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Cygnuss:
same issue here but my card reader work's but the cable does nor... weird...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] unreal3000:

hey everyone!!

for all the current froyo roms kies will not identify ur phone,

to use the sd card enable usb debbuging,then plug in the phone and drag down the notification bar. there will be an option to mount sd card (transfer music videos ect) done!!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pokosik:
doesn't work for me.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Thom47:
I don't think the Kies problem is related to motafoca, I had it with native JPF too. It's something Kies not liking froyo related.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Cause Froyo is not relesed for Apollo officially and Kies gets confused.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] thesteganos:
Can you send missings tools to me too???

PS Great rom. Very satisfied!!!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] turboblaz:
Nice rom man.super fast smooth!!!keep up the good work!!

One question:in update can u put in instead zeam adw ex launcher?thx

When'll came the first update?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jazux:
Yea i agree adw ex is THE best..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Thom47:
http://multiupload.com/O2ET4B8K0A Credits to barqers.

I agree that adwlauncher is the best (deleted zeam completevely and pushed this to root), but It's not free right and zeam is?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] turboblaz:
adw ex isn't free but zeam is.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
turboblaz, i´d modify your last post if i were you, you could get baned for such things...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Thom47:
I know that, but I'm thinking how acceptable it is to put into a public rom like this..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] turboblaz:
Thx for warning!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
Not acceptable except if the rom is a payed rom and adw ex is licensed, but this could be interfering with androids licences...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jazux:
Hey relax, if you want adw ex you either buy it or ***piracy*** and i dont think that it could include on any rom
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] divinesahil:
hey rex long tym can u update me with this fw whats so special bout it i am using jp9 fw of orange and its pretty fast and responsive but battery doesn't seems to long last max 1.5 and i noticed 1 thing in froyo when u fill almost your mem i.e internal mem and only 20+ remains proximity senser takes a while to retrieve from its grave.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] coolpepe:
Guys how about Launcher Pro. Its free and it good.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] stubborn_d0nkey:
zeam is great, its what i use.I think its perfect for custom roms.

edit: I dont really use kies, but I'm pretty sure i got kies to recognize my phone with froyo, not sure was it with jpb or jpf.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
Yeah I think Mota put Zeam because it's free. To be honest though, if you don't like it, it's pretty easy to just uninstall it right? I uninstalled it and installed Go Launcher EX.

It's preference really :P

But as long as everything else is working, then we should all be happy :) I've been super busy lately, so haven't been able to test any updates. I'll message Mota later, see how his progress is on the i5500, cause then he might port another ROM to i5800.

As to all those who are having issues connecting to the PC, what I did was I reinstalled Kies with my phone connected so it would grab the correct drivers for my phone. I don't use Kies, but when the phone is connected during the install, it installs the drivers. Connect it not in USB Debugging while Kies is installing. Worked for me! Hope this helps.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:
Hiiiiii Sahil,

How you doing buddy ?

Yeah I have got somewhat busy with my professional activities and few projects so getting less time to spend at my favourite place(XDA) and among great friends(you n all) but hey right now I am here :D

Regarding this ROM will try it soon and give detailed feedback :)

I personally don't think that Proximity sensor has anything to do with internal storage. My internal storage is as empty as few leaders' minds ;) and yet I have proximity sensor issue :(

Regarding launchers I think ADWLauncher is the best among free alternatives. Zeam is only the lightest. LiveHome if you want some great transitional effects. Launcher Pro's effects are too simple.

For guys having trouble Kies connectivity with Froyo FW, just do a Driver Recovery from Kies' help menu.

Good Luck everyone !
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] coolpepe:
Thanks rex4u for the info on launchers. I v tried all except livehome and right now i m downloading it. I hope i will like it.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ibr4him:
Sorry for being dumb, but which file (latest) to download (link?) and are there any instructions to follow?

The last link I followed is just a 14mb file, I copy it to SD card and?

Many thanks for your help!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] coolpepe:
Mate just go to http://forum.g5devteam.com/ and there you will find the links in G3 forum
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ibr4him:
Thanks, but still there are no instructions for a noob like me. Downloaded the file, now?

Thanks!

Selected Factory rest/wipe data

7.Rebooted WOW IT WORKED!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rex4u:

I am happy that it worked for you :)

Thanks for sharing your detailed experience with us. Will help people.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rudolf895:
I'm glad it would help other ppl... but seriously this is a very lite version..

But its disappointing that there is no change in looks...

Its just like the lite version of jpf..with nothing extra to offer
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Benjamin_L:
It's a quick and dirty alpha version. What else would you expect...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rudolf895:
Then what are the changes in this custom....only it seems to be a bit faster but laggy ONLY SOMETIMES..NOT ALL THE TIME
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Benjamin_L:
It's the first port to the G3, have a look what it does for the G5, wait and be happy ^^

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] cyyjm:
it is inconvenient to flash your custom rom,i fail to do it,at that time i thought my phone wont work again,i dont have any faith to flash your custom rom in future.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rudolf895:
we'll then you might be too noobish to flash it... the instructions are clear...still if you failed and "LOST HOPE" then just go back to 2.1 and stop crying! :mad:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] barqers:
Nope you don't need to backup your sd card :)

It won't touch your SD card. You'll lose your data and installed apps though.

You can always partition the SD card for yourself and it'll extend the internal data partition. But I haven't had to yet.

[General Questions and Answers] leejak:
Recently bought one of these, already own a samsung galaxy phone with android. When I got it, it had an app already installed called system update, I ran this and updated the machine. it now stands at

model number...deb

firmware...2.1 update 1

kernel version...2.6.32.9

build number...deb-r2.1.1561

not sure what these were before i ran the update, i just thought it would run better if it had the latest updates installed.

the problem i am having is that everything seems to work ok, but i am unable to play any car or steering related games on it. i went onto the android market and downloaded raging thunder lite, which i have installed on my galaxy phone, but when the game starts the car steers itself to the left and you have to literally turn the tablet 360 degrees to get a slight response from it. the orientation works ok on the menu screens and in the market app as it turns itself right as you rotate the tablet. its just the gaming side that i am struggling with.

is it the firmware update that has caused this as this is what the seller is trying to say, if so is there any way of uninstalling the update.

i have tried factory reset through settings, privacy and factory data reset but htis doesnt seen to have done anything.

Any help would be most welcomed...
[Droid 2 General] Ruggerxpunk:
Does anyone know which ROM allows 3G toggle to turn 3G off?
[Droid 2 General] orkillakilla:
I'm not sure that is rom specific. There are a few widgets in the market to turn 3g on and off.
[Droid 2 General] Ruggerxpunk:
None to my knowledge work with the stock Droid 2 though
[Droid 2 General] rtfield:
There are many that work with stock rom and any other rom. Widgetsoid, extended controls, DC switch.
[Droid 2 General] Ruggerxpunk:
These just give you a shortcut to your Settings menu though, and there is no option to turn 3G off on the Droid 2 in the settings menu.

May I ask how you turn yours off? That's my end goal, the ROM doesn't really matter.
[Droid 2 General] zibrah3ed:
Any rom dial *#*#info#*#* and select phone info and select cdma only. If on liberty, liberty settings> testing menu> phone info.
[Droid 2 General] miketoasty:
Settings > Wireless > Mobile Networks > Disable Data Enabled. This leaves your regular cell coverage alone.

Available on all ROMs plus stock.
[Droid 2 General] orkillakilla:
So I've tested a few data toggle widgets and your right, none of them work. That's the strangest thing I've seen...

I suppose you could put a shortcut to the settings menu on your homescreen but other than that I don't know what to tell you

Sent from my ultra fast Liberated Droid 2
[Droid 2 General] Spitemare:
Superpower will do it and comes with shortcuts you can add to trigger a switch. It does occasionally not perform a switch even though it thinks it does. You have to disable and then re-enable data to have the switch happen.
[Droid 2 General] NiceGuysFinishLast:
Quick settings disables data just fine on my D2G.

So does Power Control Plus. Switching from 3G to 2G, however, requires a little more.
