Do other galaxy s have source??

I glanced at some of their roms and was stunned so I stole my friends phone and flashed a rom from there he has a captivate. I flashed a firefly rom and it was faster than anything I've ever tried on my vibrant.

(Btw me and my friend do this kinda things and yes I face his phone back lol)

[General Questions and Answers] DroidNoir:
Hey Everybody,

Before I get to the meat of this sandwich, I'd just like to say thanks to all the devs (both this site's makers and the contributing kind) who so graciously share their intellectual property. You guys F'in Rule!

I have a question that has been bothering me for a while now and even more so now that higher and higher-end phones keep emerging. Besides HTC, whom I am a huge fan of, I can't fathom why most phone developing companies build such sophisticated handsets and then only stick 512mb of RAM in them. I keep reading all these spec sheets (I read just about everyone I can get my hands on) and when it comes to the memory, each has only this seemingly minuscule amount. Am I missing something? How can you build a mobile device that has dual-core 1.2ghz processors, (forgive me for saying it) "Retina" type screens, soon to be 3D technology and only put this small amount of memory it? Is 512mb more than adequate? Would it kill them to put a full gig? I use a Dinc and have somewhere north of 140 apps (and this is after I deleted at least 20) and I was using (and still am to a lesser degree) a combination of App Categories, Smart Shortcuts. Multicon and maybe 10-15 widgets (google search X2, 2 news types, calendar, small HTC scrolling people widget, dictionary.com, powerstrip, plus the individual wifi & gps widgets X2 each). Before I deleted said apps and changed my widget use, I had a constant warning in my notification bar that read "Insufficient Memory." In checking my phone's file managers, neither my sd card nor the 8gigs of internal storage were even close to full. Can you see where I'm going with this? I feel like Jack Nicholson in the church scene at the end of Witches Of Eastwick... "is it a mistake!? Or did they do it to us, on purpose?! Cause I want to know!!" (I clearly know it is done on purpose, it's just an illustration) So to simply say it, Why the standard of 512mb and is this really enough?

P.S. Sorry for the Dennis Miller-like rant.
[General Questions and Answers] oka1:
The complete answer is long...... so the short answer is --- the motherboard on a smart phone has to have many of the same things as a computer. MB/VDO/Sound/modem/rom/ram/memory (both internal and external) + music, camera ...etc.

Originally, voltage and power were the real limiting factors plus physical size, as time went on (from-2001-2009) things got smaller and smaller and faster and lower voltage. It has taken until 2008 -2009 to reach the technology to have 1 gig ram, but since development leads market (when we see it) by 18 months we do not see until 2011, some of the new phones this year will have 1gig ram.

That, and most things that need a lot of ram are games, and most people do not use the phone for that. Plus, more ram more processing more power usage then mad customers claiming their phone battery sux. Also, there were not many apps that need a lot of ram, so build for the need, as the need increases then the phone will be updated accordingly. go to remember we at XDA are 1% of the users not the 99% most do not care about knowing whether their phone is really working right or not, just as long as they can have it do the useless things they want it to do.......... bottom line, until marketing sees improving the tech side of the phone will improve sales it doesn't happen. That's how it works...sorry to say
[General Questions and Answers] DroidNoir:
I hear everything that you are saying and it all makes perfect sense. Just out of curiosity, what, other than games, would use a heavy amount of RAM on a phone? I don't really play many games, I have a couple but mainly stick to Angry Birds if the occasion actually calls for one. To clarify what little I know about RAM, it is the memory a device/comp uses in order to read/store bits of info for quick use at a later time. Would it not help the phone's overall general processing, like switching between apps and the like, to have a great deal more of it?
[General Questions and Answers] oka1:
You can tryout "system panel" at the apps store, this will graph out the usage of the ram and so you where the memory and cpu resources are going. This will probably answer your curiosity better. But, yes more is always better...... I have 32 gigs on my desktop (LOL) yeah i am a junkie but wow program are so fast now.

I don't play game either but there are some of the role playing games that are real memory hogs Neocore is a game we use to test the phone for speed. Just like a computer, the 2 things that will make a difference....... more ram better video card. Or, in this case vdo-chip. That is why (imho) the dual cores are coming 1 core for video and one for everything else.
[Droid X General] Hydro360:
Hey guys im about to buy the Atrix. but i wanted to get a feel of what you motorola users think of the way the company treats you as customers. Ive had motorola before and i love the devices but ive never experienced them as a smartphone. so how does the system run? any annoying bugs? do they update pretty good?
[Droid X General] cmdoptesc47:
The phones are great, but they keep their bootloaders locked down so they're not as easy to modify as say, an HTC phone. I have both an HTC Incredible and a Droid X and I feel that the Incredible is all around faster and less buggy. Just know that as long as the bootloaders remained locked, some bugs and lag just can't be fixed. All the manufacturers are lagging on updating to 2.3, so I can't single Motorola out for that.
[Droid X General] Hydro360:
Well samsung is lagging on 2.2 and at&T's htc won't have a ffc which I need so atrix it is
[Droid X General] Droid-Xer:
Good...unlocked bootloaders seem like a thing of the past. You'll see more being locked down.
[Droid X General] cmdoptesc47:
Then go with the atrix. I'm sure the bootloaders will be cracked eventually and then we can have our fun
[Droid X General] diesteldorf:
I have a rooted Droid X and have really enjoyed finding ways to tinker with my phone to get additional benefits from my device. Previously, I have been getting completly free VOIP calls by running the hacked version of Skype that allows for functionality over both 3G and Wifi. I paid $30 (so not completely free) to Skype for an annual unlimited calling plan to all of North America. The quality is pretty good over 3G and even better over wifi. However, when I call people, my number shows up as unknown. I could pay Skype for an actual #

($60) to remedy this so that people could call me back, but I've held off for now. If someone wants to talk, it is easy for them to text me and I can call them back since I don't always leave my phone on 24/7.

Recently, I decided to play around with SIP technology as a way to have an alternative to Skype and to have a reason to tinker. I already had a Google Voice # and set up a free account at sipgate.com Then I set up my Google Voice # to forward all calls only to my sipgate #.

I also downloaded Google Voice Free Forwarding app from the marketplace and configured that so that whenever I make an outbound call via the standard dialer or through my CSIPSIMPLE widget, the call will pause, google voice free callback will intercept the call and allow me to talk to my desired # completely free with no minutes used. The drawback is that it can take 15-20 seconds for the call to go through and the call quality doesn't seem to be as good as when using Skype---both on 3g and wifi. But, to be fair, it is completely 100% free calling and cheaper than Skype.

Recently, I had the opportunity to acquire a Gizmo5 account and a Sip Sorcery account and am curious to know how I can use these to enhance my sip experience on my android phone.

I know there is a plethora of info on both of these services, so I don't expect anyone to hold my hand or reinvent the wheel. However, I just want to know what some of the possibilities may be.

Since I already have Skype and already have a sip service setup through Google voice, sipgate, and Google Voice Callback, will Gizmo or Sip Sorcery allow me to have a better experience in terms of quality, ease of use, or quickness when it comes to connecting the call.

It looks like Gizmo my have some integration through Google Voice that other #s don't offer but does it really offer any major advantages?
[Droid X General] N4melessS0ldier:
Personally I only use SIP when connecting to my asterisk server on my VPS to make my calls untraceable and to spoof my callerid for free. Also, I don't really like the SIP services out there.... and I especially don't like Skype's VoIP service. If you are looking for a good SIP app however.... get SIPdroid. (I believe that's what I use)

The New OTA update from LG kills the current method to root the Optimus S...

If you install the OTA version of the update the current method's to escalate your privilege level to root doesn't work... IF you use the LG update tool, you can still root using a modified set of rules from the Optimus V...

I'd post this in the Optimus S forum, but there isn't one on XDA, but I suspect some still lurk on these forums...

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Kevin Gossett:
Yeah, I mentioned this yesterday with the desk dock. You can flash adrynalyne's clean dialer patch and it will fix the force close issue, but you will no longer have a themed dialer.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JJRocker:
First off, LOVE the theme...especially the new toggles. But I'm wondering...there's a link to put the clock back in the status bar, which leads me to assume there's no clock by default. However, I didn't download the clock patch but I have the clock in the status bar...and I would actually prefer not to since I use a large clock widget on my home screen and the clock in the status bar just seems redundant. Anyway, just a small nitpick, not a major deal.

Also, I noticed the earlier versions had the "galaxy s" at the bottom of the notification pulldown which is absent in this version. I actually really liked it, so is it possible you could post a version with it added back in?

Ok so I copied the stat_sys_data*.png files from stock eb01 and reloaded the theme, looks like the 3g image is back to stock and looks like its working as it should again.

Looking at the res\drawable-hdpi\stat_sys_data_dormant_3g.png thats in the theme looks like it does show 3g up and down but i'm not familiar enough to know if this is the right image or not.

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] garywojdan81:
There's a stand alone zip you can flash somewhere here that will add the longpress function I believe...

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] wideopn11:
I completely agree. This is by far my favorite theme. I have experimenting with this theme on different roms and the some features like the lockscreens seem to be breaking either from this theme or from LauncherPro. I need to do some testing to cut out the variables.

Did I mention that I love this theme?

I just wiped and flashed SC2.4 again and installed LauncherPro without theme. Everything works so I have come to the conclusion that this theme is not compatible yet. Has anyone else had similar experience?

Great work on this theme, just a few tweaks and it will be the best one out there in my humble opinion.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Kevin Gossett:
The five lock screen mod came about after this theme was made, so it isn't integrated yet. I'm sure tdb will work it in for the next release
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] wideopn11:
Yeah I'm sure he will, I was just trouble shooting to eliminate any other possible causes. I was worried it might be LauncherPro issue and that dev has said he will not support rooted devices in the past. I can wait for this theme to be updated cause it looks great. It works fine as is, like I said just a few tweaks...
