But briefly after updating the samsung task manager on a 2.2 Froyo with a Ryan lag fix and a root I end up with a blank black screen and illluminated buttons. I've also lost the boot up Samsung screen but weirdly I've still have my circle battery icon even after a compete reset.
Has anyone else had a similar issue.
I was soo loving 2.2 aswell

Yep did the same to me. I had to factory reset and clear cache. Root's still on there, so I gotta put all the apps back yet again.
For goodness sake, before clicking the install button go read and also see the 4 images!! That Task Manager is meant for Eclair!!
JPC has the Task Manager installed already. And it has the level 1 and 2 memory management.
And please don't shoot Samsung for putting the app in the samsung server, don't forget JPC is still a BETA rom.

OK I'll withhold the nuking of Samsung.. well untill they forget to update it for the 'official' release.
I've done more hours on my SGS today that I have worked all week !
Hi All
I have yesterday updated my T-Mobile UK Galaxy S to Froyo using the regedit method.
All seemed good and I was very pleased with myself for doing it!
But....
Since the upgrade I have had many Force Close's and there seems to be a fair amount of lag.
The main issue is the messaging app opens but when you go to open a message it FC's.
I am running Launcher Pro so will try running standard Samsung launcher for a bit.
Anyone else had this?
Do a factory reset!!
Yeah I too had loads of problems after the upgrade like you. Very slow, crashing, reboots. Although TWlauncher never worked properly for me before, even on 2.1.
Did a factory reset using the 3button reboot and it's been fine since. I was surprised that this didn't clear the memory card, so still have all my files - which I wasn't expecting.
Thanks guys that did the trick.
And forced me into a bit of phone housekeeping as well!
Just got my Galaxy S up and running on AT&T. It's the unbranded phone - not a captivate.
What is the best stable rom right now? I read about the official version codes, but I'm confused as to JR, JP, JM, etc.
At this point I just want something that's fast and works, so probably something 2.1 based. Later when I have more time I'll play with Froyo.
[Q] SGS South American Version will come whit DIGITAL TV reception
Guys, d u think there is gonna be a way to do it whit software changing, like flashing the SA firmware, or the phone needs a hardware part to receive the T signal ?
[Q] Laggy pinch-to-zoom
Hi everybody!
When i use the pinch-to-zoom function in my browser (the default browser on SGS), it's very slow. It is very laggy and not fast at all. Is there a fix for this or have I missed something?
please help!
Think you've answered your own question there.
If you want it on 2.1 install launcherpro or something.

[Q] Battery Drain on Mimocan Lag Fix
Hello all
I have noticed that my battry drain very fast after I applyed the Mimocan lag fix with a Sandisk 16 gb card Class 2 (all thanks to Mimocan for this lag fix. Apps run much smoother).
The main problem is when the phone goes in to standby. Last night it drained 22% even with all sync action diabled and all apps killed. Before the lag fix I did only see a 2-4% drop in battery over night.
To compare it drained more then a 15 min call I made before I went to sleep (35% vs 25% of total battery used. I pulled it out of the charger 5 min. before the call, so the data should be correct)
When the phone is activated, it seem like the battery drain is about normal.
I wonder if all/most ppl have this problem or is it just me?
My guess is that the SD card is activated all the time to acces apps data, and thus drain the battery.
Im on the m2 software, but I dont know if its the software or just a common issue when doing this lagfix?
Give a comment, Thx.
[Q] What drivers are needed for Odin?
Like other people, I'm having extreme difficulty connecting my SGS to PC with USB. I have tried just about everything mentioned in the forums, including:
-USB drivers from Kies and other sources (like the ATT Captivate drivers). Usually the Kies downloaded package installs all, but it cannot find the samsung modem driver when I plug in the phone. The Captivate drivers could not find "USB gadget". I tried installing both.
-Reformatting SD card (actually allows me to connect to 91 Panda PC Helper in -debug mode... but that's it)
-Erasing all references to Nokia and Motorola using Regedit. However I did not erase references to Samnsung or Windows Mobile)
-Praying to the creator
-Sacrifice of chicken
-Starting phone while connected to USB
-turning off antivirus.
I tried flashing phone using odin, in download mode, but it seemed that odin could not see my phone. Nothing happened.
Anyone have other ideas?
[Q] Lagging in ALL KINDS of music player after flashing samset1.9
I dont know if it is just an issue only to me, but I am having lags in any music player i tried after flashing samset 1.9.Generally the device runs other apps really fast but the sound and music lags all the time except when I leave the device be to just playing the music. I am using ext4 for a2sd fix. Dont know anyone is having the same problem
[Q] open img files from ClockworkMod Recovery?
Does anyone know a way to open the backup img files created by ClockworkMod Recovery?
[Q] Is the latest fix completely safe for device longterm?
Some people are wary of the stress caused by the latest fix, I am very very new to smartphone's in general and wanted the honest opinions of those who truly know android/device hardware.
There is a lot of well intentioned misinformed posters in any forum. But these things are important to get correct, I would much rather wreck my external 32GB card than the actual phone internal memory.
[Q] Busybox not installing
Hey all,
I am having a problem with busybox. According to the 1.18 installer, I have 1.15.3 installed. But the installer won't let me upgrade because 'the nand is not unlocked'. When I try the older 1.17 version, I suddenly have no busybox installed and have the same message with the failed instalation. What can I do....
Running jm5 with samset 1.9 (ext 3/4 fix not applied).
Alvast bedankt.
[Q] Wake the phone using Menu, Home or Back button?
Like the title says. Does anyone know if there's a way to wake the phone up using the Menu, Home or Back button like they've been able to do with the Desire and Nexus One?
Reference:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696907&goto=newpost
Samsung placed the power button at an awkward place. I assume it wouldn't be too hard to accomplish this. Probably using an app or coded into custom ROMs?
EDIT: Don't have the phone yet but so I assumed it couldn't do it like the Desire. it seems you can wake the phone with Home and Power. I think the thread above details how to enable/disable the other buttons in waking the phone as well. Looks like a simple editing of the keyboard layout and then pushing it back. Thanks.
[Q] Still lag in Contacts and Phone even with Quadrant score 2106
I am now having Quadrant score of 2106 after using RyanZAEXT2Lagfix Alpha1. It is a huge increase. However, i still notice the annoying lag in CLOSING of application such as CONTACTS and PHONE. Opening of these application is also not as seemless as in Desire HTC sense which I previously own.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
[Q] No missed calls, sms, emails showing on icons

[Q] ODIN questions
Hi there,
Could anyone tell me what will happen if I did the following:
I checked around but I don't think these minor questions have been covered in the big FAQ
Is it necessary to apply repartitioning when updating to a new firmware?
Will you corrupt data if you upgrade just 'modem' or 'csc' on ODIN?
Will you retain all your data if you don't go for repartition when updating to new firmware?
I've successfully flashed 2 new firmwares. One of them was Russian (jm5) and I was told a bit after than I can just apply the jm1 csc. Anyway, I got over it and just reflashed back to JM2 as it was stable enough.
Thanks
[Q] Headphones and micro issue
Hi,
I am the happy owner of HiDefDrum (+micro) - by atomic floyd - headphones I bought originally for my iPhone. It worked great with the iPhone 3G 16Go (sound, microphone and button).
Now I bought a Samsung Galaxy S last week, and I have problems with my headphones.
If I plug the headphones completely, the sound is weird when I listen to music (as if I heard only an echo of the sound, I don't even hear the voice of the singer) unless... I press the headphones button ! Then the sound is normal.
I can listen to a normal sound when I do not plug the headphones completely (leaving the last part of the plug outside).
And in any case, the microphone does not work.
I thought it was a hardware problem, until I saw that we can access many configuration settings using the code *#*#197328640#*#*
I guess the problem can be solved by modifying some settings in this menu, but I have no idea which !
Can anyone help ?
[Q] Question before drastic measures :) experts please
Hi Guys
I have tried all sorts of lag fixes on this forum, but after installing a couple of apps (10 to 15 in my case). The telephone is sluggish and laggy.
Yesterday i got fed up oflag fixes and firmware flashing hoping that the next version will be the solution so i put it on one of the online selling websites
I really like the way the phone looks and its amazing hardware but i am really not sure whether to keep it or sell it
Everyone keeps saying that the froyo 2.2 update will solve all the problems, so would you guys recommend holding on to the phone till end of september till the froyo is released, or should i sell it now and minimize my losses and try some other mobile phone
Is it true that 2.2 is gonna do its magic regarding lag and the time it takes to load an app, or am I having high expectations
[Q] Couple of newbie questions :)
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
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
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.
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
Cheers

Just missing this file due to some unexpected problem.....
Could anyone help me a bit
I'm on a VZW tab and when apps force close, I get the 1 vibration followed by a succession of quick vibrations, then the popup notification of an app force closing.
However, twice now, my tab has had the vibrations as if an app is going to force close, but no window pops up. On top of that, the vibrations just repeat in that order over and over again approx every 30 sec. I've had to reboot each time to get this to stop. I've tried the built in task manager to kill all running apps, but only launcher pro is showing. I've tried using ATK to kill everything running also, but that doesn't help.
Has anyone ever had an issue remotely like this?
I have the 2 vibration isue but not the other.

i also had the vibration force closing issue when i was on stock froyo.
but when i upgraded to overcome rom and also the gingerbread stock rom.
apps became more stable and has less forcecloses than before.
there was a significant improvement.
are you still on stock froyo?
Yes i recomend upgrading to 2.3.3
My tmobile tab used to do that on 2.2. A little less on 2.2.1
Havent seen it yet on 2.3.3
Ifyou dont want 2.3.3, and i wouldnt blame you, go the overcome route.
Don't Panic

I'll have to see what the best GB rom is for the VZW tab. Then netflix would likely work also!

my tab did the same thing today twice in a row. this is the first time it has done it i rebooted then hasent done it again
Solved!!!
So this issue has been getting progressively worse, so I went through app by app in the application and service menu and started force stopping them one by one. Turns out it was lookout mobile's background service causing this. The service, not the app, kept force closing and restarting, hence the force close vibrations, but no popup.
I uninstalled and reinstalled it clean and will continue to monitor. So far the issue has not returned.
update: after a reboot, the issue came back, so i just uninstalled completely. After a reboot, no issue.
Sorry for my bad English, Google
Translators had to keep her therefor times.
I have now been a week, a Galaxy Ace.
This had a firmware bug I could not fix with Odin.
As the firmware Gingerbread 2.3.6 had a bug in my camera I flashed the 2.3.5.
This weekend I tried to get a DVBViewer stream to run via a browser.
It has been an error crept in somewhere, let not be eliminated by the complete re-flash.
The error shows up as follows.
If the WLAN is enabled and either above or surfed the WiFi is not used for a while the phone starts the new surface and thereby severs all connections and closed all programs.
The mobile phone is in sih but seem not restarted.
The screen is only short dark, but lights in the background lighting.
Appears before the restart of the surface no Samsung boot logo or lettering.
Does anyone know this error and knows how it is to be remedied?
Reflah to 2.3.6 is not an option because there is no zoom on the camera works.
Here is some data to the mobile phone.
Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830
Gingerbread 2.3.5
recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace
Root and Updates for Roots are made.
Would help me rejoice over, otherwise the mainboard of the Ace must fly into the bin.
