Hi,
Hi

Thanks in advanced!

I'd like to report on JC4.
It's fast. It doesn't get slowed down like JB2 used to.
However it still has the no-sleep bug. Note that I keep network location, GPS, share with Google and sync enabled all the time. I also make heavy use of the Locale application, with location dependent conditions for enabling wifi when at home, for instance.
It also has a tendency to spontaneous reboots, especially after interacting with the Locale app configuration...

No Spanish support either.

The "no-sleep" bug is caused by network location and GPS, don't use it and there will be no bug.
Yep. I had read that. I think I'll try disabling them for a few days, but I actually want the location services to work. Disabling an important part of the phone functionality in order to get the bug away just seems like brooming the dirt under the carpet...
Is it no sleep when gps is turned on only, will it not sleep after it is turned off? I use google maps pretty regularly, but i ve turned off locale, and network location, because even with the no sleep bug, on 3g its a pretty big battery drain. I use apn switch to turn on off, my 3g when i lock and put phone to sleep, have no real need for push services at the moment, so i just pull down my mail / notifications when i check it. I had the no sleep issue, but i ve turned off location aware on the browser and that resolved it for me after a reboot. So i guess i ll have to test and see if the gps is toggle-able without engaging the no sleep bug, as Skandaflo is right, that is a pretty big piece of functionality. Hopefully an official 1.6 or higher comes down the pipe soon to resolve these quirks...

No sign of Record It on this one either, which is a problem as my back up of it is the wrong version.

Once flashed, phone booted in Russian. I once studied Russian so I finally found the good use for it! 
As expected, there were no Australian APNs installed so manual enter it was.
First impression: Lock button is definitely more responsive than on JB2 as I had JB2 on my phone for the last couple of days and close to no 3rd party apps installed.
This is JC4, a 4th firmware of the month of March. What has been addressed in this firmware (or previous 3 versions this month) is my question as the SD notifcation bug is still there. Phone still makes sound each time its plugged into USB.
That is all I can report for now....

I have used this firmware version for a day and these are my observations:
1) Earphone Volume is as low as, if not lower than the volume in JB2(damn you Samsung
, how am I expected to listen to music on the Metro)
2) Battery holds up as good as IK4 for me i.e. around 60% after a day of moderate use(few calls, 1hr music, checking mail on edge)
3) Lock button is good(not much difference from JB2)
4) Available Memory 27MB (when idle with 2 widgets active(Digi Clock, Pure Grid Calendar))
5) General Usability: Slow, sluggish response to touchscreen (It wouldn't be an official Samsung Galaxy firmware if it did not display this unique trait, which has been a hallmark of all official f/ws till date
). However it is better than JB2 in this aspect. I haven't used the Market app as of now, however judging from my experience with the browser I expect it to perform as bad as in JB2.
6) Haven't come across the no sleep problem, but I have not used Location Services as of now.

Google Voice Search still doesnt work. It only worked the very first time I tried it but not after that. After taking the input microphone graphic simply closes and does nothing...
