Some new widget: Al jazeera
Looks nice so far. Can be a successor to I9000XWJG5 as best rom so far.

I think I'll try this out.
Would like to have a complete backup just in case though. How does nandroid backup from ClockworkMod work? If I don't like the new firmware, do I flash the JG5 back using Odin, and then go into recovery mode and restore the nandroid backup? Or does the nandroid backup automatically restore the firmware too? Sorry for the off-topic question, but any help is greatly appreciated

You have to have the right base rom before clockwork restore
The I9000JPJG8.rar off http://samsung-firmware.webs.com/samsungi9000.htm only has the files OJP_JG9.tar and SS_DL.dll
What is the SS_DL.dll, and which would be the best phone and csc to use with it?

Nothing more to say really, rooted & added busybox.
This does not touch recovery & HBoot so you can still flash other roms. MoreLocale kind of works for setting to different languages.
Before you flash backup your APNs using a free app called 'APN Backup & Restore' or you wont have mobile internet.

Greetings fellow Friends from Galaxy
I just moved myself from the HTC Magic section to this one.. It was quite a jump, the Galaxy S Camera and 4inch screen are AWESOME =)
I have a few noob questions that I don't want to spread through many posts, so i've chosen to get them all here, without polution this forum section. Also they might come in handy for future Galaxy S buyers!
My phone is: 2.1-update1 @ I9000XXJF5
Question #1
Well at first glance everyone's trying to fix the "LAG PROBLEM"... I haven't noticed any lag!! What are we talking about? If its a fix.. i want it too
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the lag problem does not accure instantly after startup, it takes a while to do so.
Question #2
The phone came with Android 2.1, but at samsung-firmwares.com and at this dev section of the forum, i saw the JP3 Froyo release. How stable is this? Is it already a daily driver or a total beta? As an Android lover, i'd love to have the latest
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this release is, lets say, alpha quality, however some do use it daily and seems to be stable so far, but the jit is broken, so dont expect it to be faster than eclair
Question #3
I've used the One Click rooting solution and then the ROM Manager Clockwork to boot into clockwork rom and make a full-system backup. In my HTC Magic i had the recovery ROM (Amon_RA) flashed into the internal phone memory, so even if i didn't have a ROM installed, i was ALWAYS able to boot into recovery. That was a safety plus. How can i flash the Clockwork Recovery directly to my phone, without the ROM Manager? I'd feel more secure if i could count on recovery even if, for example, i flashed a non-working system ROM.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you can run the clockwork recovery from original recovery by simply running it´s update.zip, this does in fact load the clockwork recovery into memory
Question #4
So what is YOUR favourite ROM? My stock has some unwanted apps, and even worse, it's Eclair. I'd like to switch soon, but i don't know these Galaxy S ROMs Tell me what's the best ROM for you!
Thanks guys, XDA is indeed the #1 place for mobile stuff

If JIT is broken, the rest of new 2.2 features can be achieved through Market tools... I'll stick to 2.1 then. By the way, where's a CLEAN 2.1 Rom? this one has lots of service-provider tools... They suck.
FadeFx said:

Now That's a fix! So i just have to keep my update.zip of Clockwork Rom in INTERNAL SD CARD so that anytime, anywhere, i just have to perform update.zip and the Clockwork will boot ONCE from RAM and them be cleared at next boot, right?

Just do a full wipe in recovery and flash an other ROM.
You can also try to do a full wipe and flash this ROM again. Must simply work...
Sorry - wasnt too precise. I'm running RUU version of this one. My phone just came back from repair and they've (T-mobile UK) of course upgraded it to the latest available version which happens to be this one.

When I tried the Stock-upgraded-version I could root it with Universal Androot, then copy a custom recovery.img to my sdcard and go into terminal or ADB and type:
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
The recovery.img-part can be replaced with wherever you placed the image file, and whatever you named the file..
Then boot into recovery: Turn off -> Press&Hold Home and turn on -> Flash whatever ROM and get on with my phone
In Denmark however, the carriers don't lock the phones, so I don't need a goldcard..

I have tried both. At Villan rom I had problems with app2sd (when I installed over 50 apps it took all the phones memory and almost nothing at ext. sd partition) so I've switched back to Ele..
edit: + battery life seems to be better on ele rom..
Conclusion: On villain rom dalvik cache is on the phone and it's faster if you have slow sd card.
On other hand, if you have a fast sd card and a lot of applications, use Ele's rom.

Only Gingerbread 2.3.X based ROM's are able to use FM radio if I'm not mistaken. I'm not too sure about ICS and JB. You can try 3rd party apps.
Actually lag or not it depends on the user, and flash/install seeders and all will be snappier.
Yes, only stock Rom support a working radio, cm roms will never support it. And if you want a non-laggy GB, try flashing seeders, cow kernel and v6 supercharge. That's why I like higher android versions, they are fast without any add-ons.

Actually it is not a bug, it's just that the CM code doesn't include any kind of Fm radio support. So the problem is actually in the source code.
