Samsung was kind enough to do that for the 5700, but not for the 7500. Unfortunately, there will be no Android upgrades for anyone with the I7500 or I7500L, except for those who choose to mod. Currently running stock baseband with GAOSP from drakaz.com

how can i get code to unlock i7500?
thanks

are you happy with the performance of your phone? I tried GAOSP and my phone was painfully slow.. I reverted back to 1.6 and now it is somewhere in the drawers..

i know gaosp is pretty slow .. but u can still remove some of the default apps that u dnt need it might boost ur system a little.. n please check that u have unchecked use JIT.. dithering..lock home in memory features in performance setting of cyanogenmod.. overclock it to 624 mhz will smoothoff the frames rate of scrolling..

thanks for the comments, I will need to find it and make use of it.. its shame such a nice phone isnt up to standards (never been really). even with the original software it was not very responsive.

[Q] bad gingerbread luck. kies stopped working

I have been holding out for Samsung official gingerbread release.
Now I kies got updated to a new version so it looks promising.
Just after the update i cannot start kies on my win7.
Just says kies stopped working.
Anyone have the same problem?
Are there any other good roms based on 2.3.3?
There's a deodexed version of the 2.3.3 jvb available to download from the dev forums and stock versions on SamFirmware you can flash with Odin or heimdall.
Who needs kies?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Complete removal of Kies may fix the problem . Reboot and install latest Kies from Samsung .
Kies only updates firmware when the server has the firmware for your phones product code .

Jva released on samfirmware.

Succesfully flashed JVB from samfirmwares!
Everything looks smooth. Except the quadrant score is lower than score in 2.2.1 version.
2.3.3 (JVB) = 927
2.2.1 = 1188
Almost looks like the file system lag is back!?
Do you have any good suggestions for rom if I want to replace touchwiz?
launcher seems easy to replace. but how to replace phone and contacts app?
Darkkys rom seems to be popular in this forum?
Does it come in a stable gingerbread version yet?

Quadrant Scores are nothing buddy!!! User experience on how snappy the phone is and how smooth the animations are flowin.....that's what counts!!!
Replace touchwiz with either GoLauncher or Zeam...these are the best as per me...

But that is not official firmware that came with the phone and not using official firmware invalidates warranty . So users choice and users ask for original firmware not stock rom .
Of course all us really clever users who understand Odin hacking Flashing and building all have a back up of the original rom to recover . Dont you .

[Q] No official Gingerbread for SGT Wifi?

Hi!
I just wanted to update a brand new Galaxy Tab Wifi (GT-P1010), German Amazon Version. Since it should be a present for my mother, I thought of using just official Roms. So I installed Kies (... I hate it from my SGS) and updated to PDA:KM2 / CSC:KM2 (DBT). After this, no other updates can be found and it says that the tab is up to date.
I checkt twice and looked at the settings in the tab and ... yes it also says KM2 here but the android version is just 2.2.1!!!
???
Froyo?
This can't be the latest official firmware, am I right?
How can I get the latest one?
I guess no chance for over the air updates from samsung?
Please help. Only two days until my mother's birthday!
Wifi only is currently only on Froyo. There's a rumor floating around that there's an official update to GB coming, but nothing yet.
Thank you for the info.
Does anybody can recommend a Gingerbread ROM for the Wifi (GT-P1010) which is very stable and fast?
I' m thinking of switching to a cooked rom if there is no other solution since I think Gingerbread is far better than Froyo.
I like DarkyROM for my SGS but I don't know if there is a similar cooking Team for the SGT.
There are currently no roms, or developer support at all for us Wifi users. You can root with Z4root and install oneclicklagfix to get the tab running faster- but for now, thats all the customization you can really look at.
Both Samsung and the Developer community seem to have exiled our poor little tab xDD

[Q] Question about 4.0 (ICS) **SOLVED**

I know that samsung as announced that Galaxy s wont get an upgrade to 4.0 , I was just wondering does any of you tried running any 4.0 on a Galaxy S , Even if its a leaked or original , I was just wondering if it was running smooth and normal , Or if it will , I'm asking that because S2 will get the upgrade , So S1 should still be available to run it even if its not Officialy Aprouved.
What do you guys think ?
Try SLIM ICS. One of the best 4.0 ROM's

Do i need a rooted phone to upgrade to a custom 4.0 , because I cant seem to find a way to root the GT-i9000M ,

Fast and stable stock firmwares for GT-i9000

Hi guys!I read this forum for a very long time but I really,really can't find exactly what I need.
So I got my first Android phone and it's Samsung Galaxy S-i9000.Now I really know more about android phones and RAM and CPU for Android phones.However,now I think the better choise is Galaxy S 2 because of 1 GB RAM,it's faster and it has flash for camera(But I don't really need flash ).
The problem is RAM and I really like games like Subway Surfers,Temple Run,Ski Challenge,Real Racing.
I own Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000 2 months and when i bought phone,firmware was Gingerbread 2.3.3.It was smooth and fast,but I had a battery drain problem.After charging and playing games,Android OS was draining my battery,so I had to reboot my phone after every charging and playing game.I searched a solution and i found that draining battery is bug of firmware 2.3.3.So I updated it via Kies to 2.3.4 XXJVQ and draining was still there but less than with 2.3.3.I didn't know what to do,so I searched forums and found that I should update to original Gingerbread 2.3.6 JVU.I bricked my phone,because Odin stuck at setup connection.There was just image of phone-!-computer when I booted.I was able to go to download mode and I immediately took my phone to repair service.Repairman installed to me 2.3.6 JVU and it is bit slower,slower for some games.I am sad.I don't know what to do.It is only 320 MB available.
-What should I do?
-I think I should take my phone to repairman and say him to install new firmware but I don't know which firmware.Can you tell me please?I want fast firmware without bugs and battery drain and I really want to play games like Subway Surfers and Temple run without lags like I used to play wit Gingerbread 2.3.3 and 2.3.4.
-Is there simple solution to change firmware?
-Why did I bricked phone last time when I tryed to update it.Is it because I maybe don't have USB 2.0 port.
Please reply.
P.S. I don't really like Custom ROMS because I think they are slow and unsafe.
Sorry for bad English

You should better use USB 2.0 to update the firmware, Samsung USB driver must be installed and Kies process killed by the Task Manager (it loves to work in the background and can block flashing via Odin)
BTW, if you have used incompatible Odin version for your i9000 that also could be a reason for soft brick.
I fail to understand your point, as custom ROMs are actually faster and less laggy (especially when BigMem enabled: 407MB of RAM)
But for gaming is probably recent GB firmware a better choice. So all after JVT are fine, maybe JW7 would be best for you, it was released for Portugal and you can download it from sammobile.com
If not sure about something, check my i9000 guide

I am sure that I closed all Kies proccesses,and I used Odin 1.85 which is compatible with my phone,so I think the problem is USB port.That computer was old.Do you think it is because of old computer?
Wait,it is based on Android 4.x and my phone has to be rooted.I realy don't want to root my phone,and this Gingerbread JVU 2.3.6 (currently on my phone) is value pack too and it is slow.Very less RAM available.Is it about Kernel maybe.My kernel is [email protected] #2. Can I change and how?My phone is not rooted.Thanks!

I don't understand why wouldn't you root the phone....
Root would give you so much more options. Stock ROMs are full of bloatware that slowes the phone incredibly down.
With root access to your firmware you could uninstall all useless Samsung apps and it would boost the speed of your i9000.
Flashing a Semaphore_2.5.0bm.tar kernel would grant you full root access, CWM recovery and you could enable 409MB of memory on your phone, what isn't imaginable now (on costs of 720p video playback that wouldn't be possible anymore)

Because I want to took phone to service and tell them to install me new rom,beacuse I'm scared after first brick.And I think they won't root my phone and install custom roms.That's the reason I want Official Stock Firmware for GT-i9000 which is fast for games.I just want to tell them which firmware I want.And I am so confused about kernels.I don't even know should my phone be rooted to change kernel...
So,please if you know some fast Official Stock Firmware without bugs and lag,tell me. :highfive:

OK, I understand.
So, the latest one is JW9, not many people know it as it came very late and only for very few countries. But I remember people were saying it was awsome. Try Portugal one and if CSC works in your country stick with it (screenshot attached)
If no, this one will ceirtanly work (as it has multi-CSC) is this JW4 release:
Code:
United Kingdom / Ireland: 2012 April GB 2.3.6 I9000XXJW4 csc: I9000OXAJW5
I know that one, quite smooth, not very fast (compared to JB or KK roms) but stable and with excellent battery life. Best you can do is to download both, check that the zips aren't corrupted (download error) and give them both into your service and tell the guys to try first if JW9 works in your country. It should, actually.
Good luck and let know later if you like them

Allright,I think I'm will download just JW4.I googled,but there are many opinions.
Have you tried it yet?Tell me is it fast for games.That's most importan to me.
Also,people say it has 364 MB avaiable,BUT i'm little suspicious.Some peole say that 200-220 MB RAM is already unavailable when you turn on your phone.Is that true?I'm sorry if I'm boring but I really want to know all these answers before I took my phone to service.
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HELP.

BTW, you know, I got so curious about the JW9 as I really didn't know it and I've just flashed JW9 today and: I must say I am bit shocked how good it is! It is far the best gingerbread I ever tried, incredibly fast and smooth., much better than the CM7.x (2.3.7)!!

No problem mate
Yes, it is all together 364 available as part of 500MB is fixed (reserved) for some system functions.... actually, with only 500MB capacity, the RAM of the i9000 is already around 60% full / used before you start any app or game.
Go for JW9, it is amazing! It is obviously better, faster and smoother than the JW4.
It will be no problem about signal I think, basebands in Europa are so similar.
I just showed it my wife and she wants that I install it for her instead of the CM11...... she prefers GB's layout and design..... Oh, yes: it just flies with SpeedMod kernel k-17-3.... but it is also very fast with its stock kernel

I changed my mind.Then,I will probably tell them to install JW9.I don't care does it include my language,but I just need english language.Is english avaiable in JW9.After 1-2 days using tell me,please,is that good firmware.I just wanna know some basics:
-Is battery good? (I gotta admit that battery on 2.3.6 JVU (now on my phone) is very good,no Android OS bugs,but performance is bad)
-How much RAM is avaiable and how much is unaviable when you turn on phone?
-Is Temple Run lag?
-Is that Value Pack? (I hate to lose RAM on that kind of firmware,I don't even like new features,I really don't care )
If I finally make my phone stable and fast,you're the best!

LOL, it is not about language pack, but Baseband / Radio- frequences for mobile networks that can vary in different regions of the world
Comparation: I know JVU well from before, IMHO, the JW9 is better in all terms. Faster, smoother, great.
It also looks much nicer, I've attached you few screenshots, I only couldn't make it fast enough to open the drawer before screen was printed (releasing of back+home button makes a shot, but also exits from laucher drawer)... it is my cat as wallpaper
My wife has liked so much the JW9 that she asked me to de-install her CM11 and flash JW9 on her i9000 today!
By no apps running, I had 42% RAM free, what is very good for the i9000
But you will also need some day root access, if nothing else just to uninstall Samsung's bloat apps that you'll never need and they slow your phone down. With root apps, one can hibernate many processes and

Don't worry about baseband. It will work with your country's network. The guys in service will take care of it.
I will check later about RAM, but it will probably be about the same like with JVU.
I know you need more memory, that is why I suggested you to flash a custom kernel, Semaphore enables up to 384,5 MB on stock GB roms and up to 409 MB with KK roms.

Hi,
I've checked the firmware for Portugal from sammobile.com and it is totally bloated with stuff for some portugese provider.
Here you have a clean- non-branded XWJW9 firmware for your i9000, best Gingerbread I ever tried:
I9000XWJW9_I9000OXAJW4_I9000XWJW1 download link
It has open Europe-CSC so it will ceirtanly work also in your country. If your language keyboard is missing, just install free app MultiLingual Keyboard
So, good luck and lots of fun- happy New Year with your new i9000

Thanks! Happy New Year!
Can I flash either the Portugese or German XWJW9 firmware on my SGS? The one I'm currently on right now is the XXJW4 UK/IRELAND with multi-csc. Wifi signal is weak but when the phone is right beside the router, the wifi signal fluctuates.
I'm in the Philippines by the way. I'm a bit worried that the baseband and CSC for the XWJW9 won't work in my country.
Thanks.

Yes, JW9 will work. If the baseband isn't working, you can replace the modem later with any root file browser. Sometimes changing the region in the Wi-Fi settings can really help. You should try. Maybe no need for JW9.
