Help Samsung Galaxy S - Indian thread

I've tried it.. Same as JPH.. Not usable.. :(

Hey Kalpik, good to hear from you and that you tried this, I have been reading the XDA forums on this, many are saying its better than JPH, do you think none of the issues of JPH is solved in this ? which issues you are facing most annoying and what you think when sammy can come out with their official release for us, of course that will depends on these betas to be successfull...what say ?
 
hey mama...so you got a brand new SGS from ur dealer in replacement...hows it now do you find any difference and how did you know its from new lot ?

Yes :) I was also offered to wait for another month for froyo ready (now no question as it's delayed) ! It was beyond my patience. In early september 450+ SGS have launched in India and has been supplied to the dealers.
To be honest I am feeling the difference in lag issue. DDJG4 was running much smoother than my previous phone. It's not an illusion...it's true. Just for my curiosity I have installed XWJM8. Another thing I have noticed it's much tighter than my previous phone.....means the usb door, back cover, battery connector spring etc...however, the main point is I was pleased with installed DDJG4 with this one :)
 
Whenever I installed any lagfix I noticed processor became overactive. This time with Tayutama Edition v1.1 without lagfix [I9000XWJM8] same thing is happening....but not as much as it happens when using lagfixes. Don't know if this is harmful for the phone's hardware for a long-term condition :(
 
processor heating is certainly not good buddy...did u noticed this with JG4 ?
Nope! It never happened with untouched rom. But whenever installed lagfixes and even with Tayutama Edition v1.1 without lagfix [I9000XWJM8] (comparatively less heating) ...it's happening. I noticed this on my previous one and on this one too.

Any opinion Nick ??? Please ! I must say it's not getting heated heavily...but it's happening. Is it normal ???

sorry for the late reply mate! i didnt had access to net frequently.
I am using tayutama's full edition without lagfix. I didnt noticed any heat issues with processor. Just use 'system panel" app and check if is there any app hoggin your proccy. I think you better use tayutama's full edition without lagfix. Voodoo fix has custom kernel so it hits battery hard. voodoo custom kernel is incompatible with JM7 and JM8. It doesnt allow phone to go into sleep mode while using wifi. So either you should use lagfix with stock kernel or just dont use any.
Right now i am not using any lagfix becuase JM8 is fast and lagfree (somewhat).
I have installed 112 apps and its running smooth. Also i am using adw launcher. Its smoother than launcher pro right now. Some recent update has made launcher pro slow. So far JM8 is best for me.

PS:-- sometimes i notice heat on the uppper area of the phone while charging. but its not that much to worry about. My previous HTC legend used to become like burning brick while charging. But its not a worry if your proccy keep itself at <10% in idle state.
 
I flashed JPK yesterday....Im not able to use GPRS...im on airtel...im connecting internet only through wifi...can someone help...

Did you setup apn manually? i think ur apn settings are removed because of the flash. Just enter the settings manually. You can find the settings in this thread in previous posts.
or google them. ;)
 
I think you better use tayutama's full edition without lagfix.
Thanks for reply mate :) I'm using tayutama's light edition without lagfix...as the light edition has removed those garbage apps. You are suggesting for the *full* edition ?
Also i am using adw launcher. Its smoother than launcher pro right now.
Yes! ADW is smoother than Launcher pro. But as a theme lover I like to use custom icons. When used to use ADW I had to use Better Cut. But Launcher pro has itself the option.

When the phone is in idle mode it's fine. But whenever working with the phones processor is getting heated *more* than it was with DDJG4 or any untouched rom. I noticed it whenever installed any lagfix. That's why I never use any of them.
 
I'm surprised that you guys are saying that adw is faster than launcher pro... Although I like the themes for adw, launcher pro is just flying for me... All apps are loading much faster than adw and not a hint of lag...

I removed tayatumas mod and am now on stock jm8 with voodoo 4..i had one major failure with tayutamas rom , it somehow got corrupted.. All apps started to fc and by all apps I mean ALL APPS !! I had to reflash with odin as even a factory reset / wipe cache didnt help... It may be a very rare bug , but I don't want to go through the hassle of reflashing firmware again...:mad:

Yup mate! i am suggesting you the full version. but there is not much differences in both. Also My phone does get heat up when i run any cpu intensive task for a *long* time. But not that much to worry about.Bt i think it should be an issue. But if it does get heat up more than sure you should worry bout it.
I like ADW because it has many themes. Some are themes are very good. I am also a theme lover like you. I even change themes of my antivirus:D.

Thats sad. But i like the theme mod tayutama applied on JM8. And yes for me loading of apps on adw is way faster than launcher pro. I also using "spare parts" app to make my window animations and transitions faster. I dont need any lagfix on JM8. its pretty lagfree.

Did you hard reset (*2767*3855#) after installing tayutama's update.zip ? You must do it. If you didn't please try once again and give a feedback :)

I was using the rom since the past 7 days... It was working awesome... But then suddenly I had the issue of the force closes... Don't want to try the rom again as I am really happy with stock jm8 and voodoo...its not as fast, but is still ready good and perfect for everyday use... (i had done a hard rest by the way)

Are you facing any battery drain issues with voodoo? Did you tried voodoo with stock kernel? I have read, that one is good.

just flashed JM8 with the stock kernel voodoo lagfix and the battery life is amazing so far.. much better than JM2.. been 18 hours since ive last unplugged and battery is still at 75%.. in comparison with similar usage JM2 would have been at abt 50-55%..
 
installed JPK last night... realised today morning am unable to receive any calls. The SGS simply disconnects the call after 1 ring..loses the network totally and then re-establishes network connection.... :(
trying JP3 now..
