is important to root whn we flash our cellphone with odin or not ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] salmanghiyas:
it is not important nor necessary to root ur device ... its just ur wish ...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nimra Khan:
No its not Important it is up to you, Some apps may want root access to work on your device, but most of them works even without rooting ur cellphone.

Rooting will void your cellphone warranty if it has any !!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mirfahd:
thanks,both i dnt know if i should root or not coz my mobile ram is like almost full 300/329 and its working hell slow :\

does rootong + custom rom (with whichevr rom u knw best ) takes less ram ? coz i think default one uses alot ram .
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hassaan123:
No rooting has no effect on ram. It just gives you super rights which are needed by some apps. Like in windows 7 you allow the apps to have administrative rights. You should leave the stock rom and flash some custom rom for better performance. You'll have more free ram too.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mirfahd:
ohkay

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mirfahd:

Guys I'm having mobile heat up problem

I'm using miui Mintberrey latest with neo kernel.

While charging its normal as everyone says temperature reaches 45 +

But during normal usage on Wifi or edge it stays at 35+

And if I use it a lil temperature goes up.

I flashed stock and den again installed Mintberrey

But even on stock mobile heat up

Hardware? Issue?and kindly suggest a good stable everyday room with no lag I don't play games on mobile.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mirfahd:
the links for which i wanna download darkyrom is not working :S and listen is it important for me to root my mobile if i wanna install darky rom or any other rom in sgs ? =/
[Galaxy S I9000 General] salmanghiyas:
first have some concepts clear ...

there are mainly two methods of flashing custom ROMs ..

1: is from Odin

2: is from CWM

Usually when ever u decide to flash a CUSTOM rom ... the Developer mention it in the post that whether its a CWM flashable ROM or not ... if they have not mentioned then for sure u will have to flash the ROM from ODIN

u can judge it by ur self as well ...

usually when ever u download a CUSTOM ROM it is in a .zip file ...

now how to find that whether its a Odin ver. or CWM ??

Scenerio 1: unzip the file ..

if it has a .pit and a .tar file which normally sized above 250MB .. then this means its a Odin flashable ROM ... sometimes .pit file is not included in the .zip still u have to check whether it has a .tar file or not whose file size is above 250MB

Scenerio 2: unzip the file

if u see 3 or 4 folders in it and a file name called "zimage" then its a CWM flashable ROM

now ..

if its a CWM flashable ROM ... u need to have ROOT first to install the ROM first ...

ROOT ur phone .. then u will have CWM Recovery in ur phone .. its an APP .. after that put that .zip file in ur phone .. open CWM recovery there u will find an option FLASH a ROM .. go there .. browse the .zip file of ROM

and ...

if its an Odin ver.

well .. shud i go for this as well ???? :)

---------- Post added at 01:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:44 PM ----------

dude .. i will reply u in PM in a short time .. all your questions .. dun worry
[Galaxy S I9000 General] salmanghiyas:
now im writing the steps how to install this CUSTOM ROM ...

remember everything on ur phone will be erased ... like ur sms ..contacts ... apps etc ... so better back them up...

since u are on 2.3.5 xxjvt ... or even if u r on any other ROM for best results do the following ..

first download ODIN v1.85

then download DarkyROM 10.2 Resurrection

http://sourceforge.net/projects/ficeto.u/files/DarkyROM_10.2_Resurrection.zip/download

# Extract ZIP

# Start Odin v1.85

# Put the pit file in PIT

# Tick repartition

# Put PDA.tar it into PDA

# Put phone in Download Mode (vol-down+home+pwr)

# Connect through USB to your computer (make sure Kies is off)

# Hit Start

# Sit back and relax

after u successfully install this custom ROM ..

goto the market or now called Google Play store

download and install DarkyOTA app .. if its already installed then update it ... and restart ur phn

now download DarkyROM v10.2.2 Final [Touchwiz 4]

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/65228531/DarkyROM_v10.2.2_Extreme_Edition_TouchWiz4.zip

connect ur phone to ur PC now ... DONOT open Odin ..

just connect it as a USB storage .. and put DarkyROM v10.2.2 Final [Touchwiz 4] .zip file into ur phone in the main directory ...

disconnect the phn now from ur phone ...

open DarkyOTA app now .. goto DarkyROM tab

make sure that following are ticked

Wipe user data

install kernel

install modem

the rest are optional and totally up to you whether u want them or not ...

DO CHECK that

if ad-hoc option is there .. DO NOT check that

now come to the General Tab again ...

goto Flash/install file from SDCARD

browse the DarkyROM v10.2.2 Final [Touchwiz 4] .zip file ..

and there u go :)

[Galaxy S I9000 General] salmanghiyas:
I will post the links in a while ... Or u can visit www.sammobile.com
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mirfahd:
well tht will be good too :) do post it

oh and i have read the procedure from somewhere its this :

DO U THINK I SHOULD FOLLOW THESE STEPS ??

1) Put your phone into Recovery mode (Vol up + Home + Power button) and perform a Wipe data/Factory reset, then a Wipe cache. When done pull the battery out for around ten seconds then re-insert.

2) Put the phone into Download mode (same procedure as Recovery but substitute Volume up for Volume down.

3) Unzip the JW4 firmware folder you've downloaded to your Desktop.

4) Launch Odin and click on the button that says PDA and navigate to the PDA file you've just unzipped to your desktop and select it.

5) Connect your phone to your PC via USB. Odin will say Added and a box will turn yellow to indicate it has recognised your phone.

6) Click the start button in Odin and sit back and wait for Odin to flash your phone. When it's finished it will take a few minutes longer for the phone to reboot than is usual so please don't panic. The phone will reboot.

7) When the phone has rebooted, remove the USB cable and you now have the latest 2.3.6. It might be a good idea to repeat step 1 to make sure nothing of the old firmware is left behind.

And that's it, seven steps to 2.3.6 JW4 Value Pack and TouchWiz 4.

In case you have lost the link, here it is again.

Speed wise 2.2.1 & 2.3.3 are pretty same. A lot faster than 2.2. But this 2.3.3 update has a few little annoying bugs. Like the menu & back soft keys light never turns off while the screen is on and the browser bug.

Flashing you know what it is. Flashing means installing any firmware/software on your phone. While rooting gives you the root (super user) access to system files/folders of your phone. You can modify any of them the way you want. And many apps need the root access to work on your phone like TitaniumBackup, Root Explorer, Hot Reboot, Startup Manager etc etc.

Is there any way we can enhance battery timing? my phone seems to consume more battery than froyo version

Galaxy S XWJVB
[Galaxy S I9000 General] say942:
For rooting do i need to flash my phone again or i can do it right now from here.

And isn't titanium backup pro a paid app?

Galaxy S XWJVB
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buntoo:
Nope, It was working even on Froyo 2.2. You need to install the voice&video plugin separately with the yahoo messenger to use the voice & video chat.

As you know that Google pulled this update coz it needs more work. This ain't available officially anymore. So I'd again say, flash your phone with 2.2.1 (JPJPM) OR (JPJPY). And wai8 for a stable bug free ginger update. I've tried these ginger updates. They're not worth in my opinion comparing with JPJPM & JPJPY. Those are rock solid builds.

It depends on the firmware you're using. For rooting this ginger update, you need to flash with CF-root. (That is not a firmware, just a kernel with superuser & busybox).

Yes Titanium BackupPro is a paid app but there is the free version also available.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] needachange:
Hi all,

im using an SGSL GT-I9003 model for about a couple of weeks now. hope no one minds me posting in this I9000 thread :)

Dint so far liked the GPS peformance and battery timing.

GPS takes some 2 min to lock outside and forever inside.

Battery takes 3+ hours to charge and then last for 12-14 hrs max with less than moderate use.

Homescreen shows lags while scrolling.....i have installed GO launcher tho and the lags are somewhat reduced.

Rest is ok!

Havent rooted it yet.

Running on 2.2.1
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buntoo:
@needachange , That is strange.. What firmware is installed on your phone? Have you looked in the i9003 thread for similar issues?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] say942:
What's a lag fix?

Galaxy S XWJVB
[Galaxy S I9000 General] needachange:
2.2.1 JPKB1 is the firmware.

GPS problems are being faced by most of the ppl over these forums.

Have talked to a couple of guys here and they confirmed that battery takes this much time to charge coz of the huge capacity and that it is normal. They also confirmed that it lasts for 14 to 16 hrs max.

What's ur experience with the battery charging and usage time of I9000?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buntoo:
Definitely battery takes at least 3.5 hours for a full recharge coz of more mAmperes. But it lasts longer and that depends on the usage. Wifi & GPS are the battery killer but still with a very heavy usage of Wifi plus a few calls & sms and other stuff, battery lasts for atleast one day. When I don't use wifi, battery is enough for at least 2days or even longer. And about the GPS, i've no problem. Mine gets locked within a few seconds with 10 or 5m accuracy outdoors.

p.s. Are you from Pakistan?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buntoo:
A Lag fix is supposed to reduce the laginess of the phone especially for 2.2 & earlier versions. Galaxy system uses RFS partition and a lagfix creates an ext4 partition which is better in peformance. For me they are useless. They just increase the Quadrant score. You've to remove a lagfix b4 you update your software or you could mess your phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] needachange:
Yeah I'm from pakistan.

That's strange. In my case it never lasted beyond 14 hours and that too with less than moderate usage.i turn on wifi or gps only when required.

May b theres something wrong with i9003 battery or i9003 itself.

Do u know anyone in Pakistan using this model?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buntoo:
Many users complain about the poor battery life of i9000 also but i don't understand what is actually wrong with their handsets. May be the background apps & the updating widgets... No Idea...

No, I don't know any user of i9003 in Pak.

p.s. Did you buy it brand new/under warranty or used? And how much did you pay for it?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] needachange:
I bought it brand new and under warranty for Rs. 38,500.

In my case Im not using many updating widgets but background updating is always on.

Auto sync is on, Twitter, IM+, watchdog keep on updating in the background. But should this b normal for a do called smartphone?

My N8 was doing al this plus the pedometer thing the whole day and still the battery lasted for more than a day.

But I have seen most of the users of SGS and SGSL complaining bot the battery timing.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buntoo:
hmmm I bought my SGS i9000 brand new but without warranty in Oct 2010 at a special rate Rs.43500 when it was round about 46-49K and it was short here in Pak at that time. Now i think it is availabe for 40-43K. Galaxy i9003 price must be below 35K or maximum 35K as it has SLCD instead of SAMOLED which is far better when compare side by side. Anyhow... I think it must last for at least 24 hours with average use. BTW, SLCD consumes more battery than SAMOLED imo.. But still 14-16hours is not fair. This battery draining could be a firmware bug. Have u checked in i9003 firmware section?

p.s. Is yours 4GB or 16GB?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] needachange:
Mine is 4GB and no i dint find anything regarding battery timing wrf to FW in these forums.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] needachange:
and yea i also got a 16gig SD card as well so the total cost came to Rs. 41k. i cud get an i9000 for Rs. 43k (very lil difference) but for me, warranty is very important so i kind of dumped i9000 for want of warranty.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] buntoo:
This is my first phone which is without warranty. But basically there is almost 0% chance of any technical fault in such high-end devices. And the warranty you're talking about is nothing just a software warranty not the hardware. So it is pretty useless.
