ok guys my galaxy s is borng...suggestions :S ? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello every one , my galaxy S i bought 2 weeks ago is boring , i was exploring the stock 2.1 Eclair update 1. i have no ROM , no lagfixes or any builds
just stock GTi9000
Frimware: 2.1 update 1
basband : i9000JXJG2
Kernal version 2.6.29, build number , EcLAIR.JPJG8
most versions i see on youtube , are with more advanced looking , i mean they don't have the boring " green phone " on the homescreen next to the orange contacts , and the messaging , then application ,
looks like this one " http://cdn.androidcommunity.com/wp-c...g-Galaxy-S.jpg " ( pic taken from google )
they have a grey semi transparent one and some how it looks like higher resolution and cleaner pic, every thing is stock here, and since i don't have market i strugle to get an app, but i downloaded a vending.apk file and i have the market too bad i have the starting download stuck bugg ( didn't fix it yet )
i was wondering if someone could tell me how to pimp my Samsung galaxy s i9000 ( international )
to get all these cool looking things and cool looking phone with the nice lock screen and big digital . thx in advance btw iam new to android mobiles and samsung galaxy s is my first mobile
i hope someone understand what i want

I would suggest you go to this thread for all pimping related queries.

Generally, people customize there Galaxy S 3 ways
1) Widget Customization - This includes downloading widgets and icon packs from the market. This will change the way the icons on the homescreen look and lets you personlize your homescreen with the info you want.
2) Launchers- There are a variety of home launchers available but the biggest two are LauncherPro and ADW. ADW comes with themes that can be downloaded from the market, some are paid and some are free. LauncherPro gives the option to resize widgets if you have the paid version. Each person has their own preference as to which one they use.
3) Themes and ROMS- These are the biggest changes to the phone and usually involve rooting and flashing the phone with odin. ROMS are altered software releases that have customized status bars, docks, wallpapers, etc. Same thing with themes but instead they replace some system files to alter the status bars and etc. This is more recommended if you're willing to spend some time learning about the phone. Offers the best "pimping" in my opinion.

mind me asking where u'r from enigma ?
That eclair build is the same build im using (Africa & ME Test Version) and have market working absolutly fine using market enabler for paid apps (ERIS Market Fix didnt help at all ) .
fix the market problem by doing the following
1- in the time settings, use 24 hour time format ( u can change it back after you finish)
2- in the dial pad, dial *#272*ur four digit time# (for EXAMPLE its 0846 now so u input *#272*0846# )
3- a menu will open, choose xsg then intall the market. (by install the market i mean click on the option down below to apply ur choice)
ps: this will wipe ur device, just make sure u backup before all this.
after this the phone will reboot like factory with the market icon available, downloads should work just fine.
after that u could tweak the phone with root + SU + lagfix
from there u could enjoy the market, install games/apps/whatever
i know i was bored with my phone without the market but after i got it working im almost always on the phone and with only 1 problem left to fix, Battery life
if u need any help pm me

@ Lawliett , thanks for the reply i will look more into the pimping thread i will also try the launcher pro and let you know of the results thx again btw can you suggest some apps ? i know about launcher pro and beautiful widgets , also can you recommend a stable/fast ROM and i hope it doesn't need root , is it safe to Use ODIN ?without bricking phone?
@mazroui , iam from Egypt ^_^ , i was going to try the dialpad thing but i read on some forums that it is irreversible , and since i don't know what does it do i didn't do it , but i would love to try it out , i was also looking for someone to help me pimp my mobile and you jumped out of no where lol thanks for the offer, i will PM you so we can talk , thanks again my Emirates brother i will try help you and help my self for fixing battery life

[THEME-08-nov-11] LG O2X COMPLETE MIUI THEME MORPHER for Stock LG Roms

If someone who bought it wants the file apk should send, via email or pvt, his email address that uses on the market and I will send it immediately.​

if you wanna sell it, put it on market, you´re the boss, it´s your work

I bought it yesterday and I'm very happy with it! Nice work, I hope you continue doing it better in newer versions. I have a question for you: It seems that during the process of installation it takes about 200 MB of space on SD card. Is it possible to erase it after installation? Or is it done automatically? In case of affirmative answer to first question...where can i found these files? You know, space on SD is a very valuable resource...
Thanks and keep doing it as well!
I bought it, too and I'm also quite happy very it.
I just have one little problem: the K9 Mail display of the number of unread mails is just white (on white? – see image) and not readable anymore. This was already the case in 1.0.

SGS'ers on ICS - Post what apps n add ons and mods you've done

Ok thought I would take the rubbish out of the dev thread.
So far I have done this:
Flashed JVT from start with custom .PIT file. Speeds up Ice Cream sandwich, I've tested this and it works great. Visually no lag and it works on top of any lag fix you do after wards.
[HOW TO]
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/i...-12mb-in-nand-symlink-modem.6361/#post-131323
So here it is:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/43088692/12MB_Gain_NAND_Symlinked_Modem.bin.zip
Download and instructions - Everything you need is in that zip (its not a CWM zip by the way) load it to your PC and unzip. Follow the PDF print outs I have included and also as an acknowledgement to ykkfive's hard work (this references directly back to coolya's work from XDA https://github.com/cmsgs/utilities/tree/master/pit-stuff)
http://ykkfive.blogspot.com/2011/08/freenandmod-get-more-space-from-nand.html#.TvimZtSO3TQ
http://ykkfive.blogspot.com/2011/09/switch-to-another-modem-version-without.html#.TvimaNSO3TR
1. You can do this by taking a CWM Nandroid backup of your current setup.
2. Flash back to stock using Odin and the files I have provided in my drop box zip file.
3. I have added modem.bin file, script manager apk, buszybox apk and superuser apk for everyone should they wish to test the script and modem on the base JVT setup that they just flashed.
4. When it works correctly boot into recovery and then restore your CWM Nandroid backup and viola your done
5. Boot up - NB: You will notice you have no reception until you run the script in script manager.
You set on moot the script to run and in ICS it seems to work better than on JVT (where I had to initiate the script even after checking the onboot function).

Nova Launcher! Yeeeew finally a replacement. ****s on the standard launcher, can make GOSMS my sms app in the dock setup just how I always wanted it. Go Launcher Ex fails big time on ICS so don't bother installing it (even though I love it) the animations on GO Launcher cause big time crashing hahaha test for ya self for LOLs
You will ditch the stock launcher in an instant once your on this. It allows resizing of widgets and app draw also has widget draw like standard launcher.

Ice cream sandwich clock download from market. It looks like the clock in the pictured icon of the clock....not the gay looking analog clock that comes with it that I tried for ages to work out how to change the skin when you can't.
Haven't got a link for it atm but its in the Market so just download from there.

Whats the difference? I am running a tweaked version of MyUI ICS ROM on my Phone and freakin rocks!
The MyUI version of the ICS ROM based off OneCosmic's RC 2.11.
- List of Mods. 1% increments on the battery using the similar style to Perka's MOD of Elin ROM ICS. Uses the ICS font for numerals upto 100 and has blue lightning bolt whilst charging.
- Uses Nova Launcher and Glitch Kernel but with the nice white standard Google boot image and tweaked Boot animation as well.
-Center Date in notification dropdowm menu
Drop box is here:

anyway to stop vibration on lockscren?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
I think there is, u need to search in settings of the phone.
Thanks alot, Ive been looking for swype and a good and proper replacement launcher!
swype thread link broken?
didnt find a way to disable vibration on lock screen. if you disable haptic feedback in settings, it still vibrates.
furthermore, the vibration on haptic feedback is very high and not configureable.. thats annoying. disabled it, using now a keyboard with custom vibration length (htc_ime mod, yeah - still running under ics)

That one doesn't work after i tested it. The look of it is nice but the apk is made for a much bigger phone. It stretches too wide for the screen lol.
I went back to FlexT9 keyboard. By far the best swype out there that I have ever used. I keep deviating but I keep returning back to that old faithful hahaha. The issue with ICS is that it won't let you over ride the standard ICS keyboard to use anything other than native. So you need to freeze the keyboard apps with Titanium Backup. Then install the keyboard of your choice...in my case FlexT9. then I go and remove the apks from system/app like LatinIME and any associations with the standard keyboard, dictionary etc and put them in a folder on my SD card for "just-in-case"....cause that Justin bloke has saved me on many occasions lol.
I managed to use SwiftKey X without any problem - I do not need to freeze the stock ics keyboard apps.
i guess u knw wt i have done ..
You've found my very very very old thread that I started when ICS only first came to SGS...hahah

Dailer need slight adjustment sizing wise.

Slight delay in screen response after app closes can cause a FC at times and can't be helped its mainly down to the GPS area.
Dailer Lag might happen for some people use the V6 Charger script to correct this.

No major problems as yet, just a few resizing issues(bootanimation,camera), the camera hung when taking a pic so I'll swap it for the other miui one that will fix it. Everything else seems to be working fine.
Edit: can you swap the gallery for the 2d one in next release, 3d sucks on a wildfire.

Everything seems to be working just fine! Only problem is that when you apply themes the icons are HUGE, unlike on MIUIv4 which shows them just fine and also on the latest MIUIv4 for x10 mini HDPI lockscreens work. Is this stuff something Stelios added or is it something new for ICS/MIUv4? It would be great if this stuff could be added.
Anyway great work!
Thanks for your comments liking them already.
2D Gallery Miui will be added next version. Locker screen will be added on next version, Will replace MIUI camera as well.
Keep list coming

Yes thats because Miui Gb themes are HDPI we have LDPI.
Some ldpi lockscreens. forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1394968
You need to extract the icons from the .mtz then resize them with a image batch resizer, i use faststone photo resizer and will do some when I get chance.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
Thanks scratch. I need help with resizing what needs resizing if you get my meaning. I can get the apps that has been requested in the next rom but framework work etc i don't know how to do if you could help or point me in the right direction i'd be happy.
At the moment at least we have a working base rom that can be modded further to improve on. It wasn't a easy port i can tell you.
I still have errors about java I/O exceptions etc to fix the works.
Also i am thinking of adding G-apps to the rom too so any help from anyone will be handy and credits will be given.
Errrmmmm........
Resizing the framework is a little tricky just about everything I did on the last miui gb rom broke it, I'm new to all this resizing stuff too + don't have that much spare time to sit in front of the computer, 3 kids to look after (I only started looking into resizing when miui came around for us) it doesn't seem too bad though a few menus in some apps have been out of place but nothing serious, the launcher was quite simple as I had the v4 launcher which had already been mostly resized to copy values from, this is by far much better than the last port and I'm sure it will get even better, this is my new daily rom for sure and I'll share everything I find or do to it successfully without a doubt.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
Thanks so we are in the same boat how are you resizing the apps i have plenty of free time next week so if i get some pointers on what to do i can then start work on it.
Personally i would like every to take note this is not all my work i have noticed my thanks count going up and i am flattered but i really do not deserve the thanks i am only helping out.
Next we need to sort a kernel as well and make a few changes to the system area as some of the CM7 tweaks no longer work so removing them will help out as well.
Force Closes need fixing and so does the java i/o issues.
I am thinking on the next update to include a datasd script to increase the internal memory size need peoples views on this as well.
Whats needed on the bootanimation to be done.

Dud3me this is a Gingerbread versoin and not ICS nothing from the ICS Miui has been added to this version. I however have noticed that ICS version hasn't been updated in awhile hence the Gingerbread version as we have CM7 running ok on our Wildfires it was a logic move.

I'm aware that this is a gingerbread version...
And yes it's great that we have MIUI gb because gingerbread has, as stated earlier, almost everything working. I'm just saying that on the ICS version you CAN use hdpi lockscreen themes due to milocke/lockscreen thing RESIZING them to fit our screen. Also it resizes the icons so they're not huge (not perfect though). And when the theme doesn't have icon for a app it gives them this weird square which is supposed to be the background (see attachment). I was just wondering if it's possible to get these features on gb as well in the future.
Really appreciate your efforts and these "bugs" are just minor issues!
Bootanimation is 320x480 so it's just a little bit bigger than it should be, that's an easy fix though and if you haven't done it before me I'll do it and post a link, the other miui camera works perfectly so I'd just switch to that one, forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000445 There's the link if anyone wants a quick fix.
The system apps seem to fit ok for me, just a few menus are messed up in some apps, I'll get some screenies to show you.

Please check out this thread and say thanks to the man!

Simply put, get script manager ads from Google play.
Add this script onto your SD card.
Browse as root in app, locate the script press the skull and cross bones.. IE superuser mode and run the script...
Damn its bloody quick!
I've added the script to bottom of this post in attachments section for easier access, all u have to do is click the link. right click on page once its opened and save as. don't change the name or anything, then copy the txt file to your SD card.
once you run this, follow the guide it gives...its brilliant and will override all v6 scripts installed on any rom!
But i will not install this as stock, reason being, u can redo this script at anytime and change it further at your own desecration. so please don't ask for me to do it!​
Here something to speed things up instead of Setcpu....
it was made for me awhile ago........its called perflock.
Idea is it sets the phones CPU speed to set values...so you don't have to.
Its proven to work on my phone...been using it for ages now....
But.....it is made for the UK handset.....as my max is 800, i know some euro based models have 1000 as max....so please...before you try flashing this...back it up....I hold no responsibility for anything going wrong, you have been warned!
A simple way to see if this is working grab a CPU monitor widget....just to leave on your home screen to watch it.
You will see your phone respond faster...battery life will be better as well.
Flash this zip in recovery.....DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING! just flash and reboot
> Perflock.zip
Original Wallpapers for all roms is here. Copy and paste into the customize folder as they are and reboot.
> Original Rom Wallpapers
Known Issues....
NON all sorted so far!
Disclaimer
Standard dribble.....don't come crying if u fudge it up....simple..you take this risk yourself!
If you wish to use my rom as part of your own please ask first!
PLEASE ASK BEFORE U BORROW/ADAPT THIS ROM FOR YOUR OWN WORK
DO NOT MIRROR MY LINKS.​

I've have found on other phones that different area ruu allow wifi and others don't. This is a UK based one. It may work in uk, may not but I will attend to as soon as I can like I always do. I ask for tests and feedback to find errors, all I ask iis try it.......find errors etc, posy em up.....then rrestore your own till I rectify it again.
Wasn't me............ ;-)

you're the next dev here, you can count on us, to test your rom, and to share wht do's and dont's.

.. waiting for the next stage, mate.
nice work bigbear! and what about the oc kernel is it gonna release or might take couple of days and months
i like this one. good progress, man. like this.
Good progress!

[Q] widgets not updating after upgrade to ICS

Iam on ICS LPD stock rom with root,my widgets working fine, and have no task killer apps installed
Then I used go launcher ex, most of widgets are not updating after upgrading to ICS , such as typo clock pro does not update the clock, BeWeather pro dose not update the forecast, and market enabler 3.1.1.3 is working and facking but i can not see the paid apps as before
I uninstalled the go launcher and the widgets then reinstalled them, but still the same problem, widgets working fine for some times then stop updating
Although the widgets are working fine all the time with the stock launcher, and when I restart the go launcher the widgets work once again for a while then stop.
Then I thought it might be from go launcher, so I used Apex launcher pro, and faced the same story
I even changed the stock kernel to speedmod kernel with no luck
Any ideas?????
after upgrading i had to reinstall some apps like reckless racing 2, worked fine after that.
I uninstalled them then reinstalled them, still working fine for some times then stop updating!!!
I think you should wipe data and then reinstall apps again..
That's work with mine.

(wipe data)Do you mean format the phone from recovery, or you mean clear data from the application menu and uninstall?
I usually clear the data and uninstall then reinstall.
what about market enabler? is there any other app can do that ?
Any other ideas?????
The same problem.
