[q] galaxy s plus gt-i9001
Hello to all!
Is there a lagfix for Galaxy S plus ? Is there anything for this phone, custom roms or at least some themes? I have searched this forum but nothing pops up. I would realy like to play with it like I did with galaxy s.... For now my old Galaxy S scores more points in quadrant standard than Galaxy S plus..

It's true that back battery cover made of metal or still plastic as in original galaxy s? If yes can you give some photos of it
Nope! My came with plastic back cover. It has a little different pattern, but still plastic...was expecting to be out of metal. Battery is 1650 mAh and the metal frame is in light chrome, not in black chrome like the gt-I9000.
Galaxy S Plus I9001 Q&A
Hello to all!
I'm looking for a custom theme for galaxy s plus. I didn't find any yet. I really like the Criskello theme for sgs 9000. Is it possible to use a theme that's created for gt-i9000 or can I break my phone with it? Can somebody help me please. Is there also someone that can tell me how to convert the data system to ext4?
First time ever i hear about a a gt i9001 .
How does it differ from the i9000 ?
Have you confirmed that custom roms for i9000 doesnt work for i9001 ?

wow nice thanks for photos! well at least its not so shiny and finger print magnet as original galaxy s back cover......Does back cover fits on original galaxy s?
The back cover is also shiny. Maybe the picture isn9t so good. The structure seems to be underneath a transparent glossy layer. So also not finger marks friendly. Cover fits the old galaxy perfectly. It's totaly same size and shape.
The difference between gt-i9000 and gt-i9001 is in processor speed and gpu.
I haven't confirmed that custom roms for gt-i9000 don't work. I do not have a full rom to flash it if anything goes wrong..
If you know someone that can help...more than welcome.
Does the Galaxy S plus have another CPU or it's the same but overclocked?
I'm not shure. In Quadrant standard under system information it says CPU: ARMv7 Processor rev 2(v7l) Max freq 1200MHZ cores 1, architecture 7, bogo mips 799.53 hardware GT-I9001 Board, revision 2
so they just increased the cpu hz to 1200, anything else different.
Battery 1650 mAh.......and GPU Qualcomm, Adreno (TM) 205. As far as I know nothing else..
No one??
How to root samsung galaxy s i9001 plus??????
Anybody????
firmware: 2.3.3
baseband: I9001BUKE2
kernel: 2.6.35.7- perf
[email protected] #2
buildnumber: gingerbread.BUkE5
How to root??
Please help nobody knows that...??
score is 1200++
my 3 button combo doesnt work
Can anyone help me??
WHats your quadrant score?
It cant be slower than a normal sgs unless your comapring to a rooted or custom sgs
Maybe i9000 roms will work on it, as long as you use kernels that allow you to O/c so you can match the speed
i 9001 the was missing the original galaxy s had but I forget what

Hi,
I also had i9001 and if you cant enter download mode try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=879701
"adb reboot download" this command should help after you successfully installed SDK.
When I overclock my phone beyond 800mhz, it hangs and restarts. Somebody has Solution?
its because our mini is not stable over 800 mhz
and please don't try to do it again because your phone will become hot and the hardware may get damaged

Agree with you bro.. Not all Minis can handle 800 MHz and above.. Mine is only stable at 787 Mhz.. So that panic when you can't OC your Mini to 800 Mhz..
i saw some guy overclockin @ 864 @ benchmark screenshot thread. thats y got curious
Can you tell me how to overclock with stock rom 2.3.6 on galaxy mini. I have root acess. Thanx in advence
Do you really have to overclock your phone that high? Better not take the risk
bro, or if you still want to do it, be sure to take off the back cover
of your phone and face it on something that will somehow cool it down,
like efan or something like that, cause overclocking your
phone that high uses more battery and temperature goes high like hell, havent use rc5.2 thoughbut i have tried overclocking that high before with other builds.
oh, it is risky to everclock for the sake of your hardware.
Not every phone is equal.
I don't know if you read it, but squad baked his phone due to overclocking.
So please don't say there could nothing happen to the phones.

That kind of depends on what you're looking for in a phone. I have a Galaxy S, and I'm very happy with it. However, it's now been replaced by the "Galaxy SII", which is probably considered "nicer" by most people (slightly better screen, faster dual-core CPU, etc, etc). The SII will be more expensive, so that may be a factor for you.
If you want a phone that just works, can play .mp3 files and games, and has good screen and memory as standard, then the Galaxy S will do all that and more.
Thanks for your reply.... i was more interested in is it a good phone to root and does it have many stable costum roms

Yes; very easy to root; has a wide choice of custom roms; is "officially" supported by CM7; and the community is working very hard to port ICS to this phone. Also very hard to "permanently" break from a custom-rom point of view - "download mode" means almost any other problem is fixable.
I got one more question before i buy it..... which one is best galaxy s plus or galaxy s
There are a lot more ROMs out there for the SGS compared to the SGS+, although some/most (not sure about this...) will work on both phones..
I don't have any experience with the SGS+, but if you're looking for ease of rooting and ROM choice, I'd go for the standard SGS

Thats true. So i would also say I9000.
galaxy s
I have an option to buy my friends galaxy s which is used for a year in good condition. The i9000 is discontinued in india for some reason, and worse phones like the galaxy s plus and lcd are introduced. I just wanna know if its worth buying the galaxy s now or should i wait for the galaxy s advance so i'm more upto date on the technology? Personally i feel the i9000 was a phone ahead of its time when it was released it still can beat any 2011 single core 1ghz phone and the sgx540 is used in the galaxy nexus too so it must be a pretty good gpu. I just need your opinion on this. Thanks
Both S and S+ are great phones.
If you prefer lots of custom roms then you can go on SGS, but if you like faster cpu (can be overclocked at 2 ghz) and stronger battery life like me, then SGS+ is obvious choice at similar price range.
But don't you think if we use the sgs+ battery in the sgs and overclock it to 1.4ghz,the hummingbird would perform better than a scorpion running at 2ghz? I'm talking about overall performance which is including the processor and gpu.
Am not sure about that.
Adreno 205 is very good gpu used also in Xperia Play for example.
Together with 2ghz processor is still better solution for me.
I found this comparision test between two gpus:
http://www.grandmax.net/2010/10/adreno-205-vs-powervr-sgx540-mobile-gpu.html
Thats an old comparison between android 2.1 and 2.2 obviously there will be a big difference, according to the latest benchmarks the gpu's rank as mali400-adreno220-sgx540-geforce-adreno205.
Can you provide a link with those latest benchmarks, i like to read it.
Thanks.

After reading this thread my conclusion and answer to your original question remained the same.
These two phones are very similar to the overall strength and the only difference is in relation to the CPU/GPU.
However i9000 is discontinued and is more logical for me, to purchase a new model as his closest successor.
My feeling is the galaxy s if you are after adding custom roms to your phone. The community is massive. Personally I don't think the other phone will compare. Remember the S2 has actually replaced the galaxy s. I say this as the S was samsungs frontline phone at the time. All others are rehashed s phones aimed at a different market segment. If you are going to get a new phone i would go for the s2 or possible wait for s3. If you need it now i would get s

Yea i think i'll go for the S itself, S2 is way too expensive, the price hasn't fallen since its launch a year back nd besides i'm gettin the s for 1/3 the price of the s2 . But any idea how much will the s advance cost? If its somewhere close to she s2 itself then there's no use of waiting for it.

Bcoz of such lack of education many people hard bricked their S+ , no roms from s work on s+ , it's a totally different hardware, bootloader partitions etc..
As for those who commented the gpu, according to all benchmarks there is no big difference between adreno 205 (with updated drivers) and sgx.

Hi guys
I was planning to buy the Samsung Galaxy S Advance as my second phone, it has an dual core 1 Ghz ST-Ericsson U8500 CPU with a Mali 400 GPU from ARM with 768 MB of RAM. and other similar features like the S plus.
According to the stericsson website the U8500 chip supports 1080p video recording but on the gsmarena specs it shows 720p with 30fps (maybe someday could unlock the full hd feature )
The main reason i posted this thread was to ask about it's GPU performance, as it includes the same GPU from the S2.
Will the performance be the same as the S2 ? or somewhere around that ?
And what about the U8500's performance ?
Another Question
Are Dual cores really fast compared to a single core
I own a S plus which has a Qualcomm msm8255t 1.4 Ghz single core cpu, which i find quite fast, it runs CM9 very smoothly.
I'm also considering this phone, and I hope you don't mind I through in another question: is it true what they say that with this being "an upgrade to the Galaxy S" and only available on limited markets we don't have to expect much development and selection in custom ROMs?
I am considering either this, or a Motorola Atrix 4G and I really don't know what to choose...
I actually like it's design, it's somewhat like a mix between the S2 and Galaxy Nexus, more like a baby Nexus.
anyways this phone has great potential as it beats the galaxy R (see benchmarks at gsmarena)
I don't think that it'll get much attention by devs. It's not that the phone's slow, but there won't be as many users as other Galaxy S phones have. You can see what happened to S Plus: it's faster than the Galaxy S, but not even supported by Cyanogenmod, with a very small community. The simple reason why the Galaxy S has more users now than the advanced one will ever have, is that the S once was the best phone out and many people bought it. The Plus and Advanced aren't. They get 1/2 cores when already 2/4 are standard.
LOL i just bought the device it's real smooth was playing some hd games and the performance is really good, the mali 400mp is doing its job just fine and multitasking is pretty good
I don't know about Germany but this device seems to be getting quite popular here in India

A friend got it... but he's Android noob .
I just looked on amazon - for 40€ more you get the S2. IMO it would be the better choice. More RAM, faster, awesome cam. Why didn't you buy it?
I will rather buy S2. I learn my lesson with i9001.
In Croatia "S Advance" is on T-Mobile more than 200£ cheaper SII, therefor I don't see a reason not to buy it, except that it probably will not get much attention from developers.

there's quite a big difference in the price between the advance and the S2, so i chose the Advance over the S2. (and also i liked its nexus like curve, the curved display looks really cool)
Anyways the phone is performing well, for the first time i could play GTA 3 (v1.3) with full graphics without any lags.
and now have started enjoying gaming.
I don't regret buying this phone, maybe when samsung releases ics for the phone it will perform similar to the S2

Nah, if you get past 300€, 40€ aren't a big difference. With the S2, you can replace your cam with the phone, with Advanced you can't take usefull pics. And just look at the awesome dev support. I think Sammy only released the Advanced because of the big critic, that none of the Galaxy S devices gets ICS. Now they can say 'upgrade to advanced' and make money with their bad support. But in the end it's your decision .
I know S2 is a better device but i still liked the look of the Advance, and was quite curious about the new NovaThor chipset
and btw there ain't no news of ICS for the galaxy Advance (I'm starting to worry now )
The phone seems to have some very nice motion controls (like when you double tap on the top of the phone it activates voice search, and the tilt to zoom function)
I'm confused between s advanced and Xperia arc S (both of them at same price ) but i'm scared to get s advance duo to lake of support/deve so what do u think about that nail16??
Xperia Arc S has the same configuration as the galaxy s plus so it's a single core device and has a adreno 205 (the gpu kinda sucks)
I say go for the Advance don't worry about the dev support, it seems to be a powerful phone it will soon be recognized by the devs
Ihope so =D
Theres No XDA support for the phone. So its a big no actually !!
In india also its not that famous :O..!!
Great phone,
you can buy it closed eyes

galaxy ace is better, because it have single core cpu (not dual core like ace 2) less ram, less internal memory and is cheaper lol. get a grip, do research on your own ;d
