on the first screen and then stuck

Can anyone try adb shell and see if the linux kernel is up?
So i can figure out whats the status, kernel or graphics
adb can be installed by using google android sdk

tell us how to do that..

its it adb shell
su ?

hard to reply by email. can we discuss here?

~ when will you get ur phone back?

Phone maybe friday

adb shell
basic ls / will do
then we see what happens, if adb shell works we know the kernel is up

goggle talk..
hardly to do that for me because im online with tethering my network connection from phone to pc.

maybe we can wait till you got urphone back.

most of us sleeping now. hope tommorrow bring a good news!

Since the port hasnt worked correcly for now (we will get there)
I share bellow 2 good things to be done to improve performance and battery usage

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For some bugged reason, the phone is at 600mhz Always, thats done because the power "governor" isnt set
You can check it by installing "android system info" and expand the cpu, there it shows the percentage of usage of each clock speed, on mine it was looked at 600mhz
To set it, install busybox, install a terminal emulator and root your device

create a file inside your sdcard with the contents:

echo "ondemand" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo 95 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold
echo 3 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/down_differential
echo 200000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_rate
echo 245760 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

execute the file via terminal
sh /sdcard/filename

Im thinking on how to set this on every boot, for now you have to run it every time you reboot or turn of your phone
------------------------------------------------------------------------

And there is a feature that cyanogen recomends on phones that have low ram (our case) is to activate a swap (virtual ram)
there is a program called swapper v2 (search at appbrain.com), with it you can add this swap to your device by using the SDCard, this improves the performance
I havent tested swapper on my device, hopefully our kernel supports swap and we can use the nice feature
Another thing, using swap on your SDCard will increase its usage and for that reason reduce its life, but since SDCard are quite cheap i belive its worth the usage
If anyones tries swapper share your experience

THanks,

James

Zeam launcher has been considered the faster launcher for android
Give it a try

info http://lifehacker.com/5729485/zeam-is-the-...r-weve-seen-yet

Added on January 11, 2011, 6:03 amUploading cyanogen-prealpha-revb-i5500.tar.md5 to dropbox/firmware
THis time the filename is wright
This is a much simpler approach, only the system.rfs is changed, the rest is stock
Inside the system.rfs all the files are from cyanogen+samsung files
Give it a try
Thank you all testers

Hi all,

I'm new. Just want to ask is the official Froyo release already?

bro, how to install fishing king to my g5????

wow, all this info is too much for my pretty little brain..
information overload... :s
i'm still scarred of upgrading my G5 to Froyo since I'm not a pro in hacking..
my retailer told me that they can upgrade it for me but it'll void the warranty
so i decided against it... but seeing that i don't find it really attractive to me except for the install app direct to external memory thingie (although that'll eat up the already low life battery G5), I'm still quite happy with android eclair.
Untill all app quit supporting eclair that is...

Yeah.. u shld stick with 2.1 until u get to know hw the android things works. Then after u get bored and it will be time for u to flash to 2.2

Hurmmm... I've problem while try to swift to FROYO... I've download the I5500LUYJP2 file.. But unable to extract cos my screen shows error :

"Winzip encontered problem during this operation"

"Extracting I5500LUYJP2\I5500LUYJP2\I5500LAROJP2.tar Error: CRC mismatch in file "I5500LUYJP2\I5500LUYJP2\I5500LAROJP2.tar" in the archive "C:\Documents and Settings\Changloon\Desktop\papago\File Transfer\I5500LUYJP2.rar"

Can't extract lorrrr... What should I do? wait for official froyo?

is froyo good? anyone tried it?

Many of us here have flashed to froyo. Its quite easy.

The good thing about this is you can install your apps on SD card.

The bad thing is the battery performance, wifi signal not stabil and the compass not working.

Hopefully the official version will be better.

couple of week ago im testing swapper v2 with I5500LUYJP2 rom.. its not working. cannot enabled swapper. Glad can use that on cyanogen mod. hope someone test it and give the result.

zeam launcher is fastest launcher around.. but a bit lack of feature. maybe in the future they improve it. but im still using it right now.!

all file except system.rfs are come from samsung?

Added on January 11, 2011, 1:14 pmdownload it again here http://www.multiupload.com/UPKSVCZ7KU
pass : samfirmware.com

last time you donwload using idm? sometime its cause corrupted archive file.
just use built in mozilla donwload in case..

~ use 7zip, better, simpler, faster, open source.
