u sync with outlook? that mean u use kies?

if not using kies, how u sync it with outlook?

Kies always gimme problem, so i didnt use it for a long long time. infact, i removed it from my lappy.

For me, I sync Outlook Calendar with my gmail.com Google Calendar using Google Calendar Sync tool on my work laptop. This way, everything in my Outlook Calendar is always online in my Google Calendar.

Then, on my phone, I sync the calendar with my gmail.com Google Calendar.

Just can't seem to find a way to auto-sync my Outlook Contacts with my Google Contacts without installing Kies - doing it manually now (export from Google, import in Outlook).

thank very much, this really helpful, at least keep me saint from typing the same thing every month at the google calendar.

Ya, for the contact wise, i also doing the same as u now.. haiz..

What to do, Kies is shit and Google sync is incomplete (i.e. no contact sync)..

Mark/Space Missing Sync for Android is expensive pulak.. sad.gif

And Android Manager WIFI does not yet currently support Outlook Calendar sync for Froyo handsets..

While I've been reading about rooting the phone and stuff, I'm not sure what I should be doing first, etc. Is there an extensive step by step page anywhere? Bought the phone from Maxis if that matters (software, etc)
*
If you're still new to rooting and the other stuff, I'd suggest that you use the phone as it is first and get yourself familiarized with the features of the phone. Oh, and don't forget to go over the loads of information that have been compiled and presented in the first few postings of this discussion thread.

After that, I'm sure the next steps will be clearer to you. Welcome to the SGS family, thornduck. smile.gif

P/S - Nothing special about the Maxis sets as far as I know (other than the new batches having recovery boot mode disabled aka 3BR disabled). I bought from Maxis too, and am using it under Digi.

Reading verywhere that we need the 3 button recovery working before attempting any flash. Tried 3 button on mine, goes into task manager. Not the recovery mode. So how? Can I still proceed with flash?
*


1. 3BR is not required to flash firmware via ODIN. However, if things mess up during the firmware update, 3BR may be needed to get things back up to speed.
2. Did you attempt to initiate 3BR by pressing Power+Home+VolUp while the phone was on? You should try it with the phone off.

was hoping to use Kies registry hack to flash not ODIN.  Ya, tried 3BR on off mode and got it working, thanks.  Just wondering when it is needed to come to his stage, what do you do next besides just looking at the yellow andtoid???

Hold on, there are 2 modes, download mode which is Power+Home+VolDown (Android construction robot pic) and recovery mode, which is Power+Home+VolUp. Sounds to me you went to download mode, if I remember correctly.

BTW, if you want to flash via Kies, then you probably don't need download or recovery mode for the upgrade task. Read up more on the Kies registry hack upgrade and good luck to you.

Why is Titanium Backup asking me to thick USB Debugging?

You can turn the prompt off under settings. I think the only reason the prompt appears is that older su binaries needed usb debugging mode.

If you mean sdcard as in the internal sdcard, then yes, you format you lose all but I am not sure what you mean by default vid and pics. I normally backup my internal sdcard to PC or the external sdcard before formatting the internal sdcard.

How can i flash if my computer cant find the device
should i install kies?

This is what I did on my Win7 laptop (32bit).

1. Download drivers for Galaxy S from softpedia.com
2. Unzip the drivers to a folder
3. Plug in the phone (in download mode) to laptop
4. Set Windows to browse the folder and find drivers it needs
5. No problems with ODIN after this

http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/S...ndows-x86.shtml

If absolutely nothing is prompted or detected when you plug in the phone to the PC, then maybe you should try another USB port, or reboot the phone again.

From http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822756

QUOTE
This kernel has:

- Based on JPM Froyo kernel and modules from XXJPO initramfs
- Works on all stock Froyo ROMs XXJPO/XWJPA and popular custom ROMs
- 341MB RAM and all features should work e.g. 720P recording & playback
- Includes sztupy's Universal Lagfix
- Includes neldar's BackLightNotification 2.2 (Ver Jx.2)
- Sharpness & color fix for UI, inspired by supercurio's work on Voodoo
- SpeedMod: Replaced kernel jhash2 with jhash3
- Adjusted kernel HZ value to (hopefully) balance battery life & smoothness
- Uses BFQ IO scheduler by default
- Updated ext4 code in kernel from http://www2.kernel.org/pub/linux/ker.../ext4-patches/
- Optimized compiler flags: -mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=hard -fno-gcse -fprefetch-loop-arrays --param l2-cache-size=512 --param l1-cache-size=64 --param simultaneous-prefetches=6 --param prefetch-latency=400 --param l1-cache-line-size=64
I am currently testing the latest speedmod-kernel-vK1-300hz.zip kernel..

how's the performance? wanna ask, after applyin will lose any apps+data or not?
*
I came from JPM with super-optimized kernel, and before that I had the universal-lagfix kernel. Since speedmod kernel builds on top of super-optimized which in turns builds on top universal-lagfix kernel (I think), no data or apps were lost when I 'upgraded', even though I had originally enabled lagfix, kernel_tweaks, and misc tweaks via the recovery mode menu.

Performance wise, since I only had speedmod kernel for 2 hours, is pretty good.. slightly quicker than super-optimized, I think. The reason I moved away from super-optimized was that the later versions (> 3.3) has overclock/underclock features which seem to be causing weird problems for me and also draining my batt quicker.

Battery-wise, can't say yet. Need 1-2 weeks of monitoring to be sure.

For me, no. I like these kernels (universal, super-optimized, speedmod) because I can disable lagfix, or even change lagfix schemes without losing data (the kernel has features to backup everything to internal sdcard before changing/disabling/enabling lagfix).

JG4?? Err, I think the supermod, universal lagfix and super optimized kernels are for Froyo. I am on JPM.
