[Q] Most popular NTP servers - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
After reading this post forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731462
and seeing that alot of people have problems with thier gps signal and this being a possible fix. I am in the process of making a program that will change the standard north-america pool.ntp to other countries/ regions at the moment i have uk and Europe. But i am aware that the galaxy s is a internatiol phone.
So if users could reply to this thread with request's to which ntp servers they want that would be much appreciated the only reason i dont want to add all servers is because they are many countries in the world and i dont really want to add countries like Iceland were people arnt likely to have the galaxy s.
So can you just look at this site w.w.w.pool.ntp.org/en/
and post which ntp.server you would like adding.
I will be releasing the program later today.
Thanks
Dan

Does this one just use the best one for your country ?
Dan

that is the top level one
below that is north america, euro, asia, south america, etc, etc
it will automatically send you to the fastest one to respond go to their website for details http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/

Rom Upgrades MDA Vario

Hi all,
I have been reading alot about the comments every one seems to making regarding the MDA Vario (unlocking or rom upgrading)
I have the latest unlocking including (CID) and i also have the latest upgrades too.
These are the full updated versions which will also change the country settings from other countrys to the full english version.
If required you can buy the cd's off me for a small price via paypal which will include full instructions with the unlocking software and upgrades, which all work 100% as i have done 14 so far with no problems.
This software will NOT change youe imei as it is against the law to do so.
you can pay me via paypal and leave your address in the comments section of your payment > £5.00 to [email protected] <
I hope this will help out some of you with problems.
Regards to all,
Jerry

And your comments to lame for words is this a adult site or is it run by kids!
If your comment wasent aimed at me then sorry for the reply, but if it is then it is no concern of yours if you want the software with a backup service then please ask.
There are people on this forum who are have bad problems with this type of equipment and paying a small charge for what is offered is really to cheap but we at JKS Communications are not to greedy as we have tested and tested again to make sure that every thing we sell is 100% because i can assure that alot of the upgrades and unlocking software isnt safe to use.

And if it was then you are not interested in what i can offer then keep your comments to yourself please.

I just think it's funny that you came to a self help site, phishing for business. lol What's even funnier is, I bet everything on the CD is something that's found right in the forums. Even if it may not be the same things, it's probably something similar.

Hi,
Maybe so that most thing can be found on the internet but do they do what is claimed most dont.
And as fishing for business as you put it how can offering a service to help out those to who have tried out various software and are still having problems with phone's pda's ect which have a street price of around £375.
It seems to me that some find my offer affends if that is the case i will withdraw what i am offering and put the offer on my own website we just thought it would help out as most of the links are dead one's, and some of the programes offered for free are hacked and they do damage to your phone when used we know this as we have a lot of software that we have download for free and it is a waste of time.
As for the software being free on the net which is on the cd well the unlocking programe is and works 100% every time, but the main files for upgrading cost us money one of the files is a full version in english the latest microsoft windows v5 please tell me where i can download that for free not the simple rom update but the full Os system!.

Jerry

It's very sad to see that some nitwit takes free software from this site and tries to sell it. We see too many fricking a-holes on ebay doing the same thing.
someone will buy the cd that he claims can do most things that we cant and then post here......and the funny thing is the person will claim that he found how to this and that.

The only thing with that is, anybody in this section of the forum already has WM5 preinstalled on their device. And we can just strip out whatever we don't want installed. I'm failing to see the benefit of anybody in the "Wizard" area of the forums buying WM5 from you. By the way, I'd also like to point out that normally, in any business, there's always some kind of customer service and professionalism. You may want to do some research into that. I know that, from most of my experiences, if you have a problem, the company gives you sympathy. If you disagree with a policy, most companies would at the very least apologize about the way things are. You, my friend, act as a douche for your company. Only, in this instance, you're flushing out business. ~sniff~ Ah, the smell of vinegar in the night air. . .

it spells "genuine", not "geuine"
So: back to school, ripper !
So JKS_COMMS, where exactly are you based ?
USA ? (Your Flag)
Albania ? (Your Provider)
UK - (Your e-mail Address is btinternet.com)
How long has your "company" been in operation ?
Are you UK VAT Registered ?
Is any of the software on the CD copyrighted / GNU licence etc ?
Also your a very new user here on xda-developers (under JKS_COMMS you only reg'd on 21-10-2006), only 6 posts (all of these in this thread) I doubt anyone is going to take you seriously.
Got to say this all sounds a bit fishy to me, do you really think ANYONE here with half a brain will send you a fiver - sounds like a bit of a scam to me so maybe this thread needs reporting to a MOD.

What a pratt,
The software i hve didnt come from this site nor ebay as i dont have an account.
You are such a plank i can see now this forum has got A holes in it and plenty of them who can always pass comment well you can shove it, i got the software it's 100% perfect and works great but thanks to you bunch of upstarts who like to see other members suffer as the software you find on the net isnt that good thats why it is free.
All mine is 100% genuine
have a good one looser

Hi,
there is nothing fishy here all my software is 100% i had to pay for it which was more then a fiver, so i thought i would help some one out on here with support to help them get there mda sorted and running 100% so i didnt think it was to much to ask, but as you can see it is wrong of me to offer this software at this price so i wont it do not bother me.
Have a good one.
for someone with the vocabulary of a 9 year old, he sure does seem confident in his ability to produce working software. As for wm5 being pad for, it does NOT require a cdkey. OEM's that resell it sometimes (I have heard of one) that has added a cdkey to it to it and it was compared to a hardware id. As for a place you can find a full wm5..... everywhere?

Weather App no longer listing America as a country???

Now I've done some simple tweaks, but NOTHING to do with the weather app. I go to set my city and it asks me to select a country, America, USA, United States of America, NOTHING is listed. I would say every other country is listed but America.
I've searched and searched and the only things i can come up with is a Custom City Zip, that will not help me b/c I can't select America haha..
Any help?
btw folks I know I'm a newbie here, but this isn't a post about finding a specific city... Its actually not showing America as a country haha.
first person to figure this out gets a $5 paypal donation
Its bothering me b/c it lists EVERY country other than the united states.. I'm sure its something simple to fix in the reg.
After the financial crisis America does not excist anymore
Sorry just joking
Grtzzzz
Maybe your phone was following the current elections and decided America wasn't worth mentioning anymore?
I dont know, or it might be that Osama is behind it, trying to maks the USA dissapear???
Good luck, I think a hard reset might cure it.
And what if you checked United States?

what he said, i've never seen "America" come up
Well, america is a continent and not a country so..
argh... I really hate to hard reset the thing :-\...
Whats happening is, I hit the weather app, it says "Add City" I click it and it says "Add Country" and it doesn't show "America", "United States", "USA" nothing. It has every other country listed though.
I'm sure theres a registry tweak or something that will get it back to normal
for anyone that does have the same problem, its fixed here.. goto the link and itll tell u how to fix it.

[Q] (EU only) Gingerbread via Kies in these countries

Lets try this again. If you're in an EU member state and have received Gingerbread via Kies click on your country click it's name. This way all the idiots who didn't read the OP in this thread won't spoil it for the rest of us.
If you'e not on the list blame them not me.
So if I want to find out if anybody in Norway has gotten the update I need to start a new post?
If you like. There's a 50 option limit so I chose to do the EU.
Why not start a thread asking where everyone lives and pick the 50 highest. Then you can answer questions from countries you missed too.

Shouldn't you vote for product codes not countries, I have understood that Kies is upgrading based on product codes (CSC's)...
Like I have two Samsung toys (phone and tab) but different product codes.

[Q] [REQ] Multi Region/Countries Blinkfeed

Greetings fellow XDA community members,
I was wondering if a mod/script that changes the blinkfeed selection to multiple regions or countries instead of just one, because I have a friend whom he wants to view both Australian and German blinkfeed, unfortunately, in the way blinkfeed designed originally is to only allow one region or country to be chosen.
I believe some of us are corporate travelers and works overseas all the time and would like to check news on blinkfeed, but also stay in touch and up to date with two or more regions at the same time. i.e. German soccer news & Australian Entertainment and politics news...
The sad parts is I am actually new to Android, so I couldn't help my friend or myself, and my insufficient knowledge of coding hinders my potential to fully utilize this great phone. I could only rely on the great custom roms and kernels that has been put out there by the developers.
It would be great if any developers out there that could shed some light on this.

Thanks truc007, but on your chinese one, can you choose to display all French, German and let's say USA blinkfeed all at once? Does this patch allow you to select multiple blinkfeed sources?

Sadly that zip doesnt do what we're looking for, just flashed it, blinkfeed forgets all settings but doesnt change a thing, configuring it again i still cant combine dutch and american sources... :crying:

Submitting apps to China stores

Hi Guys,
As a UK based Android game developer we have recently had a few games released on China Mobile and 189 stores via a publisher/distributor who have a presence in-country.
For our future titles I'm currently investigating the idea of submitting to these Chinese app stores ourselves in order to hopefully bypass the ‘middle man’ so to speak.
Lots of links to the app stores 'developer centres' exist, however it seems I've failed at the first hurdle. During the registration process I am being asked for our Chinese business license number and Tax registration number. I cannot seem to bypass this section or submit our UK business details in order to continue. Either that or I'm being asked to input a Chinese mobile number in order to receive a verification code.
Just wondering if anyone else had any experience of self submitting to these China stores? It seems as though anyone outside of China is not allowed to submit apps? Is that correct?
Thanks in advance
Mark.
Hi Guys,
By the lack of replies it seems this might not be the correct forum for this type of subject
Does anyone know of any other good forums which may be able to help me out.

Hi there,
You could try this makingmoneywithandroid dot com. They have a very good forum.
Out of curiosity - which distributor did you work with there? We worked with Tencent and the whole experience was / is a bit difficult, to say the least.

Hi Tom, Thanks for the link.
We went with a publisher called Thumbstar, who are based in the UK, who work with a company from China called Viva Red. Currently they are getting us on the state owned stores like China Mobile and China Telecom.
I have heard of Tecent. Aren't they a massive 3rd party app store? So did you apply through their website or did they send you an invite to put your games on their store? Have you had much sales success with them?
M.
I know Thumbstar, they have quite a lot of games for Android in their portfolio. How was your experience with them?
As for Tencent, yes, their are a massive company (games, web, WeChat, etc.). They got in touch with us regarding one of the games we've published. We also had two titles published in China with The9 but it was quite a long time ago and I'm not sure if they are still in the business.

Will send you a PM Tom.
I can give u really advice because i am from china .here in china there are too many store
but ,you can choose some big store just like 360.cn ,91,wandoujia,and myapp.com .you can contact me by [email protected] .i may give u some help .
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
From my own experience it is easy to submit to Wandoujia (Peas Pod), takes about a week for them to approve everything, you need to prove you're the copyright holder of the the app (scan of company certificate) when you submit along with a signed "owner" form from their submission process. Registering is pretty straight forward thanks to Google Translate (for best results install the Google Translate addon into your web browser and/or use Chrome):
http://pmt.wandoujia.com/apps/dev/home
I've only submitted a free app, not sure but suspect things are more complicated with paid apps.
Other Chinese app stores are harder to submit to but usually only because of translation issues or also having to install their apps first and create an account - the apps are always Chinese too.
My app is on many stores in China, but I never uploaded it, they are just distributing a cracked version... :-/
What about Xiaomi? http://app.xiaomi.com/
$10 publish fee for each China app store
I check the website called www.app4chinese.com and they provide service to publish app in China. $10 per store and they list 19 China app stores on their website.
Hi Maineyak,
We actually help developers to promote globally their apps in different stores (not just gPlay) and increase efficiently the number of downloads.
Send us a PM if you need more information or check our website
