I presume you're talking about 850MHz 3G and not 2G.

Vodafone and 2degrees have 900MHz 3G.

Telecom has 850MHz 3G.

I think your UK i9000 supports 900MHz from what I have managed to find out.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] cbdrift:
ive got an international i9000 that i bought before work (telecom) stocked them - so I cant get staff subsidy on my cell :) heh - I have 2degrees - because of the data pack and living in town - it was bad coverage where i lived out on the west coast at murawai - but in town i have no issues - even in the middle of the telecom borg cube building - i get my 2degrees data and voice coverage :)

I cannot recommend anyone to you - but I have converted some of the telecom staff i9000's to darkyrom's :) The theory is that version of the rom supports the 850mhz band - I guess I find out tomorrow with one of them :)

About backing up your factory rom - root the rom is the minimum first step and then you can make an odin image out of whatever is on the phone.

Thanks guys.

I've gone with 2 degrees for now on a simple pre-pay sim and all looks good. I'll see how much I use it and maybe get an appropriate monthly contract if needed in the future.

Quick further question...

Which CSC code do New Zealanders have? Should I, stick with my generic UK code, or move to a NZ one? What do you use and recommend?

Does which CSC I have affect my ability to use Navigon for free?

(I forget what my current CSC code is, but I noticed my Google Market is now priced in NZ dollars already, but they want to charge me for navigon download, which I thought was free over here. Ultimately I'll deal with Navigon, in the Navigon thread, and ask about CSC here... Just wondering if there is any implications of what makes a better CSC.)

hey guys,

just want to ask, which pool do you use for gps?

I'm currently setting mine to north america pool but I'm not sure if it's the best one to use in NZ.

anyone knows the best gps pool to use in NZ?

I want fast and accurate lock
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kart_y_26:
If you've rooted your sgs then try using this app called GPS AIDS from the market. Its very good, i usually get a gps lock in 5-10 seconds indoors with a cold start.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xmfpdlemalnz@hotmail.com:
Yea, I've been using that app for a while now.

It is very good indeed.

But I would like to improve it more by chaning gps pool through this app actually.

I was wondering whether I should use NZ server for gps or worldwide one...

Has anybody gone 2.3.3 yet? If yes, what about the modem performance on the XT network?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kart_y_26:
O rite. From what i remember there's only 3 or 4 to choose from(europe, north america, i mite be forgetting one). The results i posted above were for the europe pool. so i reckon anything better than that would do.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xmfpdlemalnz@hotmail.com:
is oceanic pool better and more stable than others?

I've set to europe and north america, but they were not the best..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] duckbill22:
Sorry, I cannot answer that with certainty. I do not believe that there are vast differences. I have tried Asia, North America and our version Oceania. I am however, very unhappy with the GPS performance, in particular the length of time to get a fix. Needleess to say, I have followed most guides and tried various fixes. I am, however, limited in changing modems as I rely on 850mhz band.

Hi

I am using the Official AOSP 2.2 by Exterry which is having Gallery 3d which is kind of a bit alggy in process and sumetime got stuck in betwwen viewing the pics.

I want 2D galley as well and can anyone tell me how to install the Gallery 2d into by G1 so that i can have both 2D as well as 3D.
[G1 General] cmacia06:
Have you try finding the apk and installing it?
[G1 General] vermaekansh:
Can You provide me the apk for 2d gallery that would b a great help :)

Thanks a lot for uploading this, can I just install it as any other normal .apk(from sd card) and have both galleries in g1? Im using terry's aosp as well

Have a great day people!
[G1 General] Effdee:
yes,

but don't put the 2d on system, instead put it in /data/app or sd-ext/app (if you have a2sd Magpie? )

this way you don't need to keep adding the 2d gallery every time you update

notsure whether this is right though, the command prompt showed that the copy was done, but how do i install it to the phone? quite lost
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
Correct me if I'm wrong. By doing the "adb push Gallery2D.apk /data/app/", it should (if I understand right) install the software on your phone.
[G1 General] azrash:
But I can't find gallery 2d in my phone, evenin settings, manage applications
[G1 General] river-dragon:
The command is not

adb push Gallery2D.apk /data/app/

but

adb push Gallery2D.apk /data/app/Gallery.apk

It's a lot less fancy here, but definitely snappier!
[G1 General] river-dragon:
Quick note after a few days of usage: on froyo (cm6.1) the 2D gallery was really needed as the 3D one was very sluggish; now I'm running ginger yoshi and the stock one (3D) is working very well.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ri8:
I got a deal for the galaxy tab (bell) (3G/Wifi) - used for 200$ including the box and every thing. I've never used android before but I've been looking to buy an android phone not the tablet. I was thinking of getting Nexus s or galaxy 2 as my first android phone but when i got this deal i was confused. I don't know if the apps on tablet are different than that on phones. Also, if i can connect this with Hdmi without using the media dock or DLNA. is it the same experience as the phone, i mean same apps and so on. And is there any honeycomb for this tablet?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natious:

thanks for replaying that fast

no body could hack the hdmi thing! :(

how about the apps and games? I heard it's not like the phone's

and one more thing since i saw your post about the Honeycomb theme, is there any lag issues with these themes? I'm afraid of the 512 RAM and is there any problem regarding the ram?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digiguest:
$200 is a STEAL!!!! Get it no matter the Carrier.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natious:
To b honest the tab is pretty crap out the box, once you flash a new ron you'll be having fun, the themes don't affect the tab like it would a windows system, as the themes replace the graphics rather than run on top.

Ram isn't really an issue I usually have 200-260mb free. The prettiest of games only use around 100-150mb

And so far every app I have tried from the market has worked perfectly

swyped from a galaxy far far away...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ri8:
thanks for replaying but digi is it even different than rogers?

thanks natious i think i'm going for that deal since most apps worked :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DudeInMyrtleBeach:
Crap out of the box? That must depend on what you're using the tab for, or the carrier - CDMA vs GSM - they're different hardware and not just the radio.

I have a GSM tab, and I use mine to surf, stream video and music from me media center, read ebooks, and video chat with my daughter. I don't play any games -- maybe that's why yours needed a rom. Mine didn't. I haven't had a single issue with mine in the 2 weeks I've had it. No reboots, no issues whatsoever. Rooted, ran OCLF, installed about 100 apps. No problems. No reboots. No FC's.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ri8:
i forgot to mention something

the tab comes with an extra 2 years warranty, if i do roms and kernels or any kind of hacking what will happen to the warranty?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digiguest:
As soon as you root....there GOES your warrenty.

However if you unroot....what they do not know will not hurt them. :P
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DudeInMyrtleBeach:
I'd keep in mind that if the person selling it for $200 got it from a CDMA carrier (Sprint, Verizon, US Cellular, etc) and isn't going to honor the contract, you'll essentially have a wifi only tablet, as the ESN will be blacklisted and you'll never be able to activate on any carrier. No warranty either.

It's still a steal at $200 even if it's wifi only.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natious:
I have a euro GSM tab. So it's kitted with everything working, I'd say the tab would be fine for a average user but I like tinkering with things, after the custom rom I'd say the tab 3x times faster than a standard one

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucky_Charms:
It is crap out of the box however you won't know that until you try out a custom rom like overcome and see the performance improvements compared to stock. Overcome rom is a significant improvement in performance and stability. Give it a shot and you'll see. But if you're afraid about the warranty then stick to stock.

For Tab email:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=843527

Try searching in the Themes/Apps subforum.

As for the stock app, I guess you could extract it from any available rom as I'm too lazy to give you the apk from my phone atm.

Also I would suggest backing up those apps, seeing as they are stock apps, before you delete them. Use SDX-stock app remover or just use root explorer. midNIGHT rom's newest rom pack has a whole bunch of flashable zips contained in their BYOR edition zip.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bighuta:
Try fully removing the original apk, if it is installed, and/or delete data/cache in applications settings. The only thing that doesn't fully work as far as I know are Yahoo! mail accounts and Exchange accounts(somewhat, there maybe some fixes around somewhere). I use yahoo, so it's a bit of a pain, but i like the Tab Email layout. Also I heard that Gallery 3D has caused some headaches with battery drainage with some roms, Randy_T and Mammon88 removed it from their current release of Bonsai4All. Try quickpic. It has a tiny footprint and does what gallery 3d does sans the 3d part.

Hope it helps

Permanent sleep

I may have experienced a similar problem, running a DK28 based kernel with both Quantum 2.5 & 2.7 ROM's.

When the phone sleeps and you're not able to wake it, do the 4 buttons at the bottom of the screen still light up? If they do then I have had the same issue. I could only narrow it down to restoring apps+data or putting the phone in sleep while an app is running. Once it was the result of putting the phone in sleep after a FC.

I can only posit that it MAY be an ext4-only ROM related issue, considering I did not have the above situation occur with rfs ROM's or rfs/ext4 dual ROM's. In addition this was only limited to DK28 for me. I was off DI18 <16hrs after I bought the phone. The DK28 gps issue was a non-factor as well, occurred whether gps worked or not.
[Epic 4G General] leftkidney:
before updating to 2.2 - I did the DK28 and now the EB13 one - with 2.1 I would have my phone randomly reboot - I would be sitting there and here the music it makes when it starts up but I never turned it off?

other times it would just be turned off, but when I turn it back on the abttery is not low enough to cause it to turn off

all this went away with DK28 2.2 and hasnet happened since I installed EB13 2.2

[Epic 4G General] ahowsare:
First try

dk18 update.zip flash

Restored apps and data with my backup pro root

Random reboots, FC

Second try

Odin to dk18

Wipe x3

Restored apps and data with mybackup pro root

FC, music player force closing (doubletwist, stock and musicmod, poweramp worked though?), fc when trying to change ringtone or notification.

Started reading about others with the same issues and thought data backups were a reoccuring theme. Did a third try tonight and so far so good. Music players working, no force closings, keyboards working correctly, gps lock indoors. Its still early, problems might still popup, thought id share...

Latest froyotempt

Fresh backup with mybackup pro root

Wipe x3

odin eb13 prerooted (ctsy xda forum) same file from attempt 2. Did this x3 as well, read it in a thread somewhere...

backup apps only with mybackup pro root

All attempts were with genocide kernal.

So far so good, none of the previous bugs are apparent, so far... Those of you that are on the fence regarding doing the same, so far its worth the time.
[Epic 4G General] joedig52:
I was thinking back-ups were part of the problem also, so I used odin and started all over from dl18 without restoring any data, same problem still occured

[Epic 4G General] KOYHOY:
I'll add to this thread. I seem to be having the same problem and I believe it started when I installed quantum rom... but I'm not sure. The symptoms i had were random reboots, where the screen would shut off and the 4 lights would stay on. Then I would have the sound of lost signal as if my phone rebooted and was starting over. Also, the most recent problem I get is my phone completely shuts off and I need to battery pull to get it to start up, and it loops on the splash screen of my rom. I have tried doing a complete odin wipe and not restoring anything and I believe it is still happening...
[Epic 4G General] burgerpimp07:
Any update?

Also, make sure the governor isn't "powersave". If you have 100-400MHz powersave governor, it still ONLY runs at the lowest speed (100MHz), even if it's 100-400MHz.
[Epic 4G General] joedig52:
Still happening, not on powersave, doesn't matter what settings I have in set cpu. Did a hard reset back to 2.1 and it still happens, bringing it in for repair.

[Legend Android Development] Lostpassword:
well, i'm really loving the built-in cpu management into cyanogenmod settings, btw i wonder have the capability to set 122 Mhz as the lowest frequency instead of 245 as it is now.

maybe we can have this in the future?
[Legend Android Development] Trekvogel:
It has to be supported in the kernal and at this point it isn't. Technically, it shouldn't be much of a problem to add support for 122MHz but someone needs to do it. I would like this as well to try but my experience with 122MHz on b.07 is that it's not all that useful in real life. Battery in CM7 is already very good so I don't see much reason to go below 245MHz at this point. Just my 2 cents.
[Legend Android Development] ikdegek:
furthermore, at least my experience, it takes a while to get the legend out of sleep mode when the phone is locked, if you go lower than 245.
[Legend Android Development] Trekvogel:
That's one of the reasons why 122MHz is not very useful in real life. Your phone is never going to spend much time at such a low speed unless you force it too. Unless the governor is set up properly, you'll get a pretty laggy phone. Also not that a lot of cpu scaling also uses more energy so you're not likely to win much.
[Legend Android Development] Skardy:
Little OT:

Which is the best governor?
[Legend Android Development] Trekvogel:
In theory, I'd say interactive is great. In practice however, not so much. Streaming video doesn't work properly for example. I usually stick to ondemand, which makes sense because it's the default governor in pretty much every ROM. Some devices have a tweaked interactive but I forgot what it's called. It was designed to fix the practical issues of interactive.
