broken download linl

Thank you ! But the link with multiupload seems broken and i can't download the kenel-voodoo

Thanks for your help , I loved the voodoo sound when I was on D ))
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] peda_k:
I know that it is a feature and not a bug but nevertheless a very annoying one for quiet some people.

Saying that it is not an issue is a bit self-centered, don't you think?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
something went wrong during copy & paste:

kernel-voodoo-v4_02032011.7z (4.67 MB)

works now
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
Ah, you get me all wrong there mate :)

What i meant is, this "issue" is not a bug.

I said that because some people just don't want to search/read, because they think it is easier to ask. Well, nothing is easy if you don't read, right?

I never said that i'm comfortable with the feature. I guess if i/you/anyone wanna use CM7, we should learn to live with it.

But then again, if i offended you or anyone, my apologize :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
Been running CM7 and all working smooth, less FC's and much faster. Camera still needs work @slamdunk0208 :)

PS: Is there any way to install fonts? Like Zegoe Light?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cocchiararo:
there is a maps/network location service always running for me, but i see no cpu usage in OS monitor from it.

In last update:

MediaServer still uses 30% cpu time, which is a lot.

Skype still force closes on me (fresh install, after signing in)

Google Googles still show a black screen (no camera input i guess)

Before updating, and now too, my "charging process" hangs or something, and my phone stops chariging, even while being pluged. I could only fix that with a reboot before, now it fixed itself at least once.

When my phone refuses to CHARGE while pluged, system info widget reports 0 as the battery temperature. If anyone knew what process might be needed for charging, i could at least start it from terminal :P

I kinda like the warmer screen XD (weird, i hated the iphone 3g warmer screen, compared to the original iphone :P, i never bought the 3g tho)

Same thing happened to me, usually it goes down to 95-97 % after unplugin/rebooting.

83% (i just rebooted, no cwm) is kinda a lot :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
If it's a .ttf you could rename it and push it to /system/fonts.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] qsec:
Ppl are saying that swype fc's. I don't use it myself.

In the thread about the Sammy GB release the fixed it by editing build.prop

They edited line: ro.product.board=herring to: ro.product.board=GT-I9000

When i look at mine it says: ro.product.board=aries

I don't know if it should be "aries" or if it breakes something if you edit it?

Maybe someone with more experience can tell?

Thanks,

/qsec
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rover.prince:
Well I am not sure why people say swype don't work. I m using swype open beta version no fc at all. No FC at any place since the start. Only nightly 17-02-2011 was bad one. SInce then everything has been good.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyMa69er:
Is it worth upgrading from 225 to 302?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cocchiararo:
swype beta works.

swype from the GB leak works after hacking it XD (or changing build prop, yes) even on this rom.

It would be nice to have a warning about the JV1 modem screwing up your external SD next to the download link on the front page.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
my card is fine is this a common problem i've read some pages back haven't read about it
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rumble6059:
the problem with that is that it does not screw up everyones SD card, mine was fine when i updated the modem to JV1, as was a lot of other peoples.

Matt
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] donlk:
thanks it worked!

So:

Anyone who's having a weird thing like this after updating to JV1:

You're bootloader is messed up.

The only solution is to update the bootloader of course. You can flash any compatible stock ROM's with boot.bin included, but here's one (from backhead92)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/665428/I9000XXJM2.zip

Flash this through Odin with a 512 PIT without ticking the "bootloader update" and you're good to go to cm7. If you wanna spare this procedure in the future, stay away from that crappy JV1.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ickyboo:
A warning would still be needed if just ONE device was screwed by this modem update. Just because yours worked fine doesn't make it fine for everyone else
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
Afaik, it's not the modem that screw the ext-SD.

It screwed if you have flashed JV1 ROM, and flash back to CM7.

It's been stated by some people a few pages back, you should take a good look ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kobik77:
There is no way just to flash the bootloader?

After I tried the procedure with JPM just to find out it was failed, I really would like to skip the flashing procedure once again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ickyboo:
But I started at STOCK JM8 as per every rom I test out. JV1 was long gone as I was on Darky 9.3 before I went to stock to flash CM7. The external SD problem only happened AFTER i installed the JV1 modem file as I was happily reinstalling apps from my external sd card before modem update.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wkapga:
regarding the JV1-modem i can now report that with 0302

1) the phone connects to 3g immediately without need to lock/unlock

but

2) the phone looses 3g after some time (10-30 minutes) connection and does not reconnect

3) this explain the lower batt.drain i mentioned - no connection :( so forget that.

i switched to JPM-modem back, this works as expected...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] robbiev80:
--wifi works fine for me

-- GPS is AWESOME

I'm using JL2 modem on mine
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] donlk:
Dont tick the bootloader flash in Odin, this package contains the boot.bin, it will be applied anyway. JPM doesnt contain a bootloader, so its not gonna work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kobik77:
Sorry, I meant to ask if there is any way to flash only the bootloader without the whole package.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] robbiev80:
Just installed Skype and it works fine. At what point does yours force close?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] backhead92:
There is, but you still would have to go back to 2.2.1 i guess... So then this is just as fast..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hovnovice:
How to install a 7z file please ? with CWM should be a zip file...wtih heimdall? I am using a Mac . Tuxility ? Thanks for your help
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] afilopou:
Confirmed.Worked fine with jm2.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kobik77:
Flashed JM2 with repartition?

And then how did you return to CM7?

All the initial stuff and then restore?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] backhead92:
Extract it. In it is a zImage (flashable using Heimdall), the new kernel. And 3 other files you have to apply using adb
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] backhead92:
I went back to 2.2, and then to CM7. But i guess it was just me being certain, and not wanting to trake any risk on failure (was busy with it for about 6 hours already then xD) So just follow the original how to install CM7.

And yes it;s with repartition (i used the 512 pit file)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kobik77:
Probably this is our punishment for flashing Sammy's stuff :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darkalchemist:
:O Mine doesn't work. It force closes when after I tell it to sign in after putting in my skype details. I'm assuming you have a fresh version of skype after a clean install?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SaneinOne:
Use 7-Zip to extract.

Just thank you very much for your work and specially for the version of the i9000b! our phone is like the forgotten brother of the international i9000, so thanks again!!

Do I always need to run efsbackup script when returning to CM?

Where does it keep the EFS backup by the way?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
I despise ADB. :D

but i could do that via root explorer?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
No, if you already had backup earlier.

It's in /sdcard/backup/efs/

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
I don't see why you can't.

Nevet tried it tho..

Skype FC: after I put my password Skype tries to log in and after a few seconds closes with FC with :sorry bla bla ...

I downloaded Skype for the Market...Thanks for trying to help
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] robbiev80:
Yes, this is my first ever install of Skype.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kobik77:
Worked like a charm, thanks mate.

So much hassle for this crap, though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] robbiev80:
No problem.

I closed the app, and logged into after a little while. No FC's here. :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
but please be VERY carefull with flashing bootloaders it is extremely dangerous only thing that can brick your device
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hovnovice:
Skype seems not to recognize the password for login in and now keeps asking for it (even it's the proper one ) . I don't have FC since I moved the apk to sd card instead of phone but still ..no success ((
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cocchiararo:
for me, it force closes after i sign in.

then, each time i open it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
that skype problem was posted in this thread about 20times

you can search threads for topics there is a button above the first post (every page)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
Anyone getting this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rixsta:
I get that on darkys......nothing to worry about..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] backhead92:
It's normal, if you've isntalled an app on your sdcard it won't work if you mount your sdcard to the pc ;) So they warn you for that
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
no no no guys you understood incorrectly, i know that obviously, i'm talking about the writing. Look carefully, it says 'Turn off USB Storage' but says 'In order to turn ON USB Storage etc'.

Point being it always says 'Turn off USB Storage' even when it's not on :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jonathan_m84:
even google devs can make typos, please forgive them...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kobik77:
Yes.

Unfortunately I realized that only a day after I flashed this cursed jv1.

By the way, I got my RIL working after reboot, but I get error when trying to start Wifi.

Modem is jl2.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
Listen mate i wasn't saying it out of annoyance or blaming anyone, i was saying it wasn't like that in the build before and it always says 'Turn USB off' regardless. It's a bug i'm mentioning, nothing more.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
perhaps it is not a typo but the phone didn't recognize the connection right it could be a bug does it behave strangely?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stianbert:
Is mobile AP working now?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
you mean mobile hotspot? yeah that works
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kobik77:
Damn, my wifi isn't working.

Tried flashing jpe, No joy.

Now what?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
No mate, ever since i installed the new update it's been like that. Maybe a fresh install is in order.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hovnovice:
I already looked into before posting : there is nowhere a fix or a suggestion how to make it work.

So what are you suggesting concretely : Do you have a solution or only bla bla ...?))
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darkalchemist:
I have to agree. No one has posted a solution to having skype working. I wonder if it's something in the build information that Skype checks or the CSC of the area? When my CSC wasn't set properly to XEU, I couldn't get it working on 2.2.1 roms.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gallaxya:
i built a kernel with voodoo patch but i can't seem to get wifi working not even through adb method ... any suggestions?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
basically skype is not free, you have to purchase it, or you use stock samsung rom, or similar roms which include the samsung framework.

skype has a special agreement with samsung, thats why you can find it on samsung firmwares.

In fact the inclusion of skype within xda developments is in a way illegal.

besides that you can download for free the beta version (under condition of registering) and this version will work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gallaxya:
no way ... skype is 100% free (remember as it wasn'y even supported in galaxy s devices in the beginning).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] robbiev80:
I'm using CM7 and I have no issues with Skype whatsoever...I haven't paid at all either. I just downloaded the official app from the Market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jetpackjeff:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] quadratic:
Awesome news! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] omnicronx:
Noticed the same thing, I assume they are talking about SWYPE since he is talking about the deal with Samsung.

Swype is not suppose to be redistributed, and technically should not be included in any phone in which the manufacturer/carrier does not have a license agreement. (I know sammy has an agreement, and I think Tmobile did at one time too as I've seen it on Mytouches).Thats what the beta version is for. Then of course there is the fact that CM does not include commercial software of any kind.. (not sure if there are even any closed source apps on it at all)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] redbull320:
Amazing work :)

Are There some modded CM7 apps, Maybe of a stable Version of the desire, That i can use in this ROM?

Sry For english :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AlessandroIT:
After compiling your own kernel, you should also import your own wi-fi module (bcm4329.ko).

Copy it to lib folders and wi-fi will work again :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] robbiev80:
This is my recent history (I'm rom flashing addict):

CM7 ---> JV1 ---> CM7 ***ext card was not being detected***---> JPO stock ---> CM7 (initial to latest build).

After each flash I did a wipe.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gallaxya:
import? what do you mean by that?

i am kind of n00b-ish ... what's the procedure i must follow ... if i don't ask too much. thanks in advance:)

https://github.com/kangsterizer/GT-I9000-Bootloaders
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gallaxya:
weird!

i installed the latest cm7 and it continously boots :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AlessandroIT:
Kernel compiling gives you not only zImage file, but also other including bcm4329.ko

This is the linux module that the kernel needs to talk with wifi hardware (or something similiar :P). When you compile a Kernel, a "special code" is written in this module and only the resulting zImage can use it.

So there's a 1:1 dependencies.

Actually, you compiled your own kernel, but you just flashed the zImage..so you're using a Kernel with a bcm4329.ko that was compiled for another one (the kernel found in the cm package for instance).

All you have to do to fix this:

Just take the bcm4329.ko which should be located is some folder /target/arm.. on your linux box, and copy (overwriting) it to /modules on your galaxy s.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nrg:
I have the same issue. After cyanogen boot logo it returns to samsungs boot logo.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dehem333:
Sucks :( , AFAIK I did nothing wrong. But I did a wipe/factory reset , applied exactly the same update again , restored my nandroid manually in CWM. And now im back in business ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
ATTENTION: Something is wrong with the latest build!!!

Half of the libs (system/lib) are missing on my phone.

But they're included in the zip. Strange.

Will analyze whats going wrong there.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darkalchemist:
Cool. At least we know it works somewhat. Gonna wipe and install from scratch again and see how it goes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gallaxya:
thanks a lot for the quick reply!

i didn't wipe data but cache and dalvik were wiped! exactly like you said ... something is happening:(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nrg:
I just flashed the previous build and my phone is back alive.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
Ok, a mainline change ****ed it up.

package_extract_file: no system/bin/modelid_cfg.sh in package
set_perm: chown of /tmp/modelid_cfg.sh to 0 0 failed: No such file or directory
set_perm: chmod of /tmp/modelid_cfg.sh to 777 failed: No such file or directory

After this it stopped copying the /system files.

Will have a look at it tomorrow.

lol I'm confused now too. Was he talking about SWYPE or SKype when he was talking about having to pay???

I was talking SKype.

lol
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dehem333:
Thanks for the fast response :)

The latest versions(2.3.3)are so damn smooth now , I can really notice by using app protector pro , on any samsung rom there was a small delay after entering after entering code/gesture but now its just instant , and with alot of apps installed.

Cheers.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ghazi.urfali:
Planning on flashing tonight, any review on battery life compared to stock samsung?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dehem333:
Its decent , enough to get a full day with mid/heavy usage , atleast for me. I would say when in USE its even better than stock samsung roms , but idle its pretty bad. But as I said , enough to get a full day.

After all , I know almost sure that you wont be dissapointed after flashing this :D

Also , make sure you read the instructions well , or ask ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
yes, but a quick one, i tried for at least on or two days every release on this project since i am loving this CM7 development port.

in the 20110225 i used to have around 15h of batt life with a relatively heavy usage..

flashed 20110302 yesterday night and i had 50% of batt with just 5hrs of usage, and i must say that it wasnt a heavy usage...

am i the only one having this drainage?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mortify1:
Just tried to install CM7 initial from JS5... and im stuck at the recovery screen (CM7 initial kernel recovery)... help? no errors ive seen so far..

Quoted from CyanogenMod 7 SGS Experimental thread. As stated, leave it be until the new ones are uploaded :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Hawk:
Yea, the newest update drains a lot of battery :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mortify1:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nrg:
Same here. can only last approx half day.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gallaxya:
indeed there are some apps that resurrect themselves :) like google maps that drain the battery besides the obvious so much needed debugging!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
don't flash, there is a bug on repo, as it says.

by the way are the debug parameters removed? Because that obviously would increase battery life.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mortify1:
Are the devs working on a fix tonight?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
Hopefully, codeworkx says he has a new build.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
nope, that graphics driver is only to be redistributed with the Nexus S

BUT: since we're the users there is the possibility for us to use it nevertheless :p

just the packages would be needed to be distributed separately

the merger then would be on the user's side (basically should be similar to the distribution of gapps)

so no legal problems afaik :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sideeffects:
Battery life is much better for me with the newer build. At least twice as good compared to 25/02. I don't have google maps installed though and I have started using a task killer again and being careful which apps are installed and running.

It still uses about twice as much power on standby compared to Froyo with Super optimised kernel. 2% an hour on standby compared to 1%.

Music playback also drinks a lot of juice.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] omiks3:
