@ Mothatt and @ Val3r10 if you think that I no good idea to use the PDA with boot and sbl, I can do a Pda part without the two files, this isn't a problem.

I have put these file because I see that the boot and sbl of JV1 is different, so if somebody flashback can have some problem if the rom haven't the old boot and sbl

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Val3r10:
Many thanks again for your work and for understanding our point

I also proposed - elsewhere (ITa only) - a procedure to fully cleanup a dirty phone or wrongly flashed firmware/rom, but as it isn't such a good idea to flash bootloaders over and over, I advised using JM8/JM9 eclairs (which haven't BLs) to do that.

Among others, bootloards are always risky with disabling a previously working three-button-combo ...

TIA for repackaging

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
Just a quick word of advice for those of you who are feeling a bit icky due to recent viruses and malware in the Android market – don’t download the Android Market Security Tool. The version in the Android market is clean and straight from Google, but you do not need to install this on your own. Google will use this tool automatically whenever they do a security sweep.

There’s another version on alternate app stores with the same name and icon, but these are injected with viruses. Do not download these either, for obvious reasons. Your best bet is to let Google do what they do and if you’re still feeling a bit vulnerable, check out official offerings from Lookout, AVG and more. (Or just do extensive research and check permissions on the applications you do download.) [PC World]

hello guys

today i bought the optimus gt540, and played with it for a while without a sim card in it. later when i inserted a brand new sim card, the phone didnt recognise it, says invalid card. the card works on other phones, and other cards work in the optimus.

i also put a pin code protection on the sim, and when optimus starts up it asks for the pin code.

please help

Can I get this ROM (I couldn't find it anywhere) ? Or can you help me revive that phone ?

Thanks !

your friend cellphone is still alive, while you are in BOOTLOADER (the three colors screen) you just have to connect it to the computer an reflash it, you just need the "NoID_RuuInstaller" and the rooms that you want to install,in the FTP directory of HTC WIZARD on XDA you can found the "NoID_RuuInstaller" =)

Good Luck!

note: with a normal RUU you CAN'T install roms from BOOTLOADER.

HybridByNature on irc asked for this, and I decided it as a demo for a HowTo I am writing. Look for my basic smali patching how to in the near(ish) future.

This is the CarCradle from Adrynalyne's (if anyone has previously patched it, lmk so I can add credits), with the Settings Button changed to launch Shazam. I did not change the icon, if someone wants to make an Icon for it, I will change it out.

Because the free version, and paid version have different package and activity names, I made two versions. You have to install the one that matches the Shazam version you use.

These are not recovery flashable zips, the APK must be pushed to your /system/app/ dir. If someone wants to make them a flashable zip, feel free to do so and pm them to me so I can add them (yes, I am lazy).

[Fascinate Android Development] ludionis:
That sounds awesome. Curious, how difficult is it to modify a button in the Car Home apk? Better question, how difficult would it be to create a customizable button to replace Settings in the Car Home apk? I like Shazaam, but have switched to Midori SoundHound after the free/paid conversion of Shazaam. I can deff see usefulness of being able to select your own APK from the phone as the destination (Pandora, C:geo, Gesture Search, Subsonic, traffic cams app, etc etc etc).

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the92playboy:
I have an LG Optimus Quantum, and for some very weird reason, the wifi is very slow. I have daily access to 2 wifi networks, home and work, and the phone behaves the same on both. Generally, in order to watch youtube or any other streaming video, I have to turn the wifi OFF or else the video never loads (or in rare cases where the video is small, it will eventually load).

The phone is not unlocked or anything, and I have had it for 4 months and it has always behaved this way.

My home network gets speeds of 17mb/s on a wifi laptop.

Using 3g right I am getting 120, 224, 224, 130 & 156 kb/s using Speedtest app after doing 5 consecutive tests.

Wifi tests 112, 130, 130, 142 & 130 kb/s using Speedtest app (to perform wifi test, I put the phone into airplane mode, then start wifi connection).

Anyone have any input here?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Casey_boy:
Could be a problem with the firmware? But I think that must be device specific because I haven't noticed that at all (Samsung Omnia 7).

Guess you'll have to see what fellow Optimus users are experiencing.

EDIT: Actually, I downloaded the Speed Test app and my WiFi download speeds ~300KB/s (apparently). Then did a speed test over my WiFi on my laptop and got ~2Mb/s (eventhough it's supposed to be a lot faster than that). So...?

Casey
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MartyLK:
Same for my HD7. My 3Mb/s DSL WiFi signal averages around 2500Kb/s on my iPhone, HD2 and PC. But on my HD7, the best I can get is around 300Kb/s speed with SpeedTest. It's the same for the data as well. And it isn't anything to do with the carrier.

EDIT - Actually I'm wrong, it's much slower than that. I was paying attention to the bar number and didn't notice the average number upon completion. Mine shows around 200Kb/s. One test was 191Kb/s and another was 212Kb/s.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pillsburydoughman:

At home the wifi is definately faster than 3g but at work the wifi is so slow i just turn it off and use 3g.

OFF Topic: What App(Free) did you guys use to test the phone's 3G & WiFi Connection Speed...

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vel0city1:
Weird. I get my full 10Mbit speeds on my home internet, and full speeds at work and everywhere else I get WiFi. Much faster than the 3G, which gets around 2.3Mbit down on average.

I've got an HTC Surround on AT&T.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
the speedtest app in the marketplace got horrible reviews, gonna try BandWidth and see how it does. Right now I'm on my mobile hotspot at work so I should be able to get a clean test as I'm the only one on it.

I have used mobilespeedtest.com in the past but heard it can be inaccurate too.

To the OP, I haven't had any wifi issues. Videos start faster on my home wifi (20mbps), than on my hspa+ t-mobile signal.

Ok, the BandWidth app (free in the marketplace) seems pretty accurate. On first run, I got 590 kbps which is consistent with time warner (aka sprint network) 3g mobile hotspot speeds. Really wish I got 3g t-mobile signal in my office.... :(
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
I really think this free BandWidth app is fairly accurate.

Just did another test, this time using my mobile hotspot on 4g and speeds came back:

2.7 mbps down

0.47 mbps up

This is consistent with the crappy 4g speeds on sprint (what a disappointment wimax has turned out to be, but still much better than sprint 3g...)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MartyLK:
It only works on cellular data networks. I'm needing to test the WiFi speed on my WP7. But, of course, I'm just using the trial version. Maybe the retail version works with WiFi.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Josh-SEAnswers:
Have you tried to update the phone, even if you just got it but this could be some kind glitch on the software which could easily be fixed by doing an update.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cech:
I agree, it could be easily fixed by an update if there was an update with the glitch fixed or any update for the Arc at all. :-) I have since found that the wifi connectivity problem is caused by encryption. The Arc can handle WEP but using WPA or WPA2 the connection is painfully slow with a great loss of packets.

Doing a fix through PC Companion and reloading the whole system however doesn't work.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] QuentinX5:
Okay, I know this is going to sound more awkward by the time I explain it, but I assure you that I am pretty lost here.

I set a numeric password on my phone, as I do with most of my stuff, so if something happens to it, my personal info doesn't get obtained so easily. Anyways, today I woke up and used my phone a bit and it was alright, but it restarted and when it came back to XDAndroid again, I tried to unlock it, but the phone wouldn't unlock, which I found as odd. I retyped the password about 10 different times, to avail. I know I didn't mess it up when I entered it in, because I was unlocking it just fine earlier. Any chance this could be a bug or something?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Might have to blast out data.img.

I haven't set any such lock, so no clue if it is a bug or something else...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] QuentinX5:
Its the first time it's ever happened to me, so I thought i'd throw it out there and see if anyone knew anything about it, though I figured i'd be relying on making a new data.img, unless I wanted to get fancy and edit the data.img to find the unlock code, but that would just be no fun.

Thank you for Titanium Backup :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Heh, indeed.

It's a crappy workaround to get the phone working again. I doubt it's a bug, I'm betting something else is going on. No clue tho, let me know if you figure out a way to reproduce it!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] QuentinX5:
Well it happened from the phone resetting itself after being dropped, so I don't know exactly such a way to reproduce it except by randomly resetting the phone by unmean means, but will most definitely does.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] rpierce99:
I had something similar happen to me quite a few times before I realized I was using Titanium Backup to restore previous settings, it would restore the unlock code but it wouldn't take affect until after a reboot. By the time I rebooted I forgot I had just restored from a backup.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] QuentinX5:
That still wouldn't make a difference, because I've used the same password even from backups, so it wouldn't change regardless. I've rebooted quite a few times, still haven't deleted the data.img because I had some stuff I need to get off beforehand, but have no way of retrieving it if I am locked out of my phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] ryannathans:
perhaps somehow in some strange way the unlock code was corrupted, do you still have a copy of the data.img?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] QuentinX5:
Yeah, it's on my PC somewhere. I backed it up because there was stuff on it I never got to take off.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] ryannathans:
if you would like to investigate further, try to find a data.img editor or you might even be able to use a hex editor to search for your lock number, if your can find it, something weird is going on, if you can't it probably got corrupted or it is encrypted. I have no idea how the code is stored, otherwise I'd be glad to help further :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
I would honestly hope for security sake that the PIN code isn't stored in clear text ;).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] QuentinX5:
Same here. If only Android worked like Windows Mobile where I could just use a registry editor on it... :X
[Galaxy S I9000 General] [Ramad]:
Let us look at the latest build.prop and default.prop included in the latest XWJS7.

build.prop:

Now let's look at the default build.prop of XWJV1, I have marked the lines by colored numbers:

What I use now on XWJV1 that is installed on my device is a mix between XWJS7 and XWJV1 build.prop files, I have also added a few lines to reduce power consumed by WiFi, and enhancing GPS on the device. This is what I think that the files be, but any new ideas are welcome.

My build.prop file for XWJV1:

And the default.prop file:

If you want to try these then just edit your build.prop and any default.prop files using a Note++ and copy to your /system partition as superuser. If you need to try the files that I use then download them from the link below.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tsinc:
Thanks Ramad. It's weird: GB was first seen on Nexus S (samsung product) that is so similar to SGS. Where did these lines come from? Has any HTC device got 2.3.x so far?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] [Ramad]:
I think, as I wrote in the post that the guy(s) who made the build.prop file did copy many lines from other places, or he/they is/are only familiar with HTC devices (new worker(s) maybe..), the bottom line is that I think that the build.prop file should be different. Making a bigger heap for dalvik virtual-machine will not make it lag less but more, because of more garbage-collection operations. The device do work fine now with 32MB as heap, but I have increased it to 48MB since I did want to share it and since it's 48MB that Samsung used to use on previous firmwares.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] newmail:
I also noticed the heapsize growing and I suppose it wasn't intentional. I wonder if anybody knows what the dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=m=y means?

please add this to build.prop for a nice boost. Are we sure this didn't work in JS5? (never heard of it now)

I have read many places, this so far the one that is easiest to understand: http://www.netmite.com/android/mydroid/2.0/dalvik/docs/embedded-vm-control.html it does not mention m and y modes and I could not find the meaning of these modes anywhere yet.

I did could not see any difference with or without the line 'dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit' this is why I did not add it ,it appears to me that it's enabled as a default setting.

Confirmed...I have just tested it and AVI(Divx) does indeed work when the line changed to 'false', Quadrant score will suck, but who cares :), we need the device to work properly.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tsinc:
It has been mentioned before in the XWJV1 thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=11860843&highlight=build+prop#post11860843

Anyway, I thought again about the HTC (are they really?) lines. The only way that this is possible is if the code was written by NON Samsung employees. And this leads me to another conclusion: maybe Google writes the code for Samsung. Google demonstrates the last version of Android on a top selling company's model (HTC, Samsung etc) and then sells it to the manufacturer. And they are used to HTC models....

Anyway, just speculating....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] [Ramad]:
I did not read the thread you mentioned for a long time now and don't know how far they have reached, but jassired were the first to mention the line change here.

You could be very much right about the Google coding thing, but Samsung did add several other directories, drivers and applications, they should at least check the double lines and other lines(like the line that had Swype disabled) to see if the device is working as it should using these lines.

Just as an example, I'm not using 64MB or 48MB as heap-cache but 32MB and I feel that the firmware is even better than before, not perfect, as I think that the firmware needs to be optimized further. I have to mention here that I use the deodexed version of this beta.

Hey fellows!

I've just been lurking here a lot, but now I've exhausted all my options concerning Galaxy S and its odd USB-behaviour.

Problem Summary

Kies doesn't recognize my Galaxy S, it just keeps "Connecting Device" until infinity. Odin doesn't work either. It seems to recognize my phone, but gets stuck on "Setup connection" -part.

I can access my phone even in Kies mode with Windows Explorer and browse the files.

I'm running Windows 7 x64.

I'm stuck on stock 2.2 with Voodoo Lagfix, and basically just want to either install 2.2.1 or Darkys Rom.

Device Manager lists following

In Kies mode: Samsung Android USB Modem, GT-I9000, SAMSUNG Android USB Composite Device

In Download-mode: Samsung Mobile Modem #4, SAMSUNG USB Composite Device

What I've tried so far

1: Different USB-ports

2: Installing and uninstalling drivers, both with and without Kies, even both the 32 and 64 bit versions.

3: "adb reboot download" with Odin already running - same result

4: USB debug mode

5: Disabled Voodoo Lagfix

6: Resetting to factory defaults, formatting internal SD and removing external SD.

7: Probably something else too, this is all I can come up with right now.

The #4 on the Samsung Mobile Modem leads me to think that some drivers haven't uninstalled correctly and might screw with the connection. Is there any way to completely destroy the drivers from my computer? So far I've gone for the standard Add/Remove Programs-approach in lack of better knowledge.

Any further suggestions?

Best Regards,

JKase

Personally i would wait for official Gingerbread release rather than flash a custom rom .

But a workaround that would probably work is to undo lagfix .

Build a rom in the rom kitchin .

Use a card reader to transfer rom file to external sd card

Then transfer from external sd card to internal sd card and flash .
