hey guys, tnx for the dropbox invite.
as for the stable release, i see it is the i5500 version.
does this mean no asian language support? I am using the i5500 from samfirmware now and it does not support thai language, which is highly irritating as i cant sms my clients now.

also my mobile network does not work, clicking to switch it on does not do anything, this might also be related to the i5500L south american built.

hope you guys got answers, sorry if I ask something that is already explained in here.

I've PM SGPC and he replied that I invited but I don't see any change in DropBox? Should I ask he again?

you got to log on online into dropbox to accept the invite.
then it will show in your desktop dropbox.

If your on the same one that I am, then no, there's no support for Asian language except Korean  doh.gif  (as far as I know and I may be wrong)

As for mobile network, not too sure about that  hmm.gif

ok so it is still the i5500 version of Froyo.
I will try to flash, to fix the battery problem though.

Anyone has any idea when samsung comes with the i5503 versions?

Hey guys,

I have been talking to Samsung Thailand.
They are not willing to give an exact date yet, however they informed me that Froyo 2.2 will be out soon for the i5503 models of the Galaxy 5

that makes me happy, finally, thai language support and hopefully a working mobile connection.

Did you do a Hard Reset before flashing?
*
I tried it again.
did the following:
1. factory reset
2. hard reset
3. start in downloading mode.
4. start flashing - should auto reboot and protect ops be checked?
5. at around 3 minutes it restarts the phone and asks me to connect through kies or umps only?
6. i do nothing untill odin tells me it is finished.
7, i unplug and do another hard reset.
8 phone is as normal firmware including all samsung apps.

tnx will download and try, and report back when finished.
to my question, do i need to check "protect ops" "auto reboot"

and is it normal that the device restarts at 3 minutes and then asks if i want to connect through kies (on the phone)

Its a very tedious thing to do. I had some difficulties doing it but with the help of some of those guys on the IRC channel, I did it. I wouldn't recommend you doing it as if you have any problems you would have to revert it back which is another issue LOL

But then again this is just me (a noob) saying  tongue.gif

bro. u should have read all the instructions for motafoca's rom carefully, you need android SDK tools to hard reset the phone, via command lines using ms-dos, not possible through the phone itself, this rom is a bit 'different'
*
you dont need to use sdk tools, just do a factory reset and then a hard reset on the phone and all works fine for me.

Anyone has the thailand maps for papago?
Also papago drains so much battery, anybody has a fix for this?



Found it: http://www.papagomap.com/
all maps for all sea countries.
Download all files, unrar
Dont pay attention to the difference in main folder name or the maganaviser / organic / photo / save folders.
Copy the folders in the map folder to the map folder in your papago (NaviSEA) folder.
copy the folders in the sound folder (if you would like extra languages like thai) that you dont have yet.
in the main navith folder (or other name if other country is selected) the files you dont have yet, do not overwrite already existing files (not sure if this will mess up the app)

unplug phone, restart papago and there you go, thai maps biggrin.gif

only battery drainage is now still an issue
