At times, i have the same problem (can see network but not able to connect). But if I reboot the G5, it will certainly be able to connect.

On another note, I connect my G5 to my wireless network at home. There are times when I return home, the G5 is not able detect my home network even if the wireless router is just next to it. Disabling and reenabling wifi will not do. Only a reboot will resolve this problem.
Anyone has this problem too?

Just called Samsung Mobile Malaysia and asked when we will get Froyo for our Galaxy 5.
The customer service (guy) said there isn't any fixed time for the update but he confirmed there will be Froyo.

I am still on Android 2.1.
Can I also install EXT2 using the steps given above and see performance boast?

Hi, while trying to flash to 2.0.6

I did the followings:

Odin:
Checked : One Package, Auto Reboot, Protect OPS
OPS selected is : EUROPA_I5508_v1.0.ops
Integrated Package : I5500_MOTAFOCA_BATFIXV2.0.6.tar.md5

Galaxy 5
1. hard reset *#*#7780#*#*
2. Take out battery for 5 sec
3. hold VolumeDown-Center-Power Button (EndCall)
4. Enter in download mode
5. Connect USB cable from PC to Phone

Odin:
detected COM Port
COM Port Mapping : 1 (COM 21) in yellow

Then Click Start:
.
.
<1> StartThread Detected : 1
<2> StartThread Detected : 0
<3> StartThread Detected : 0
<4> StartThread Detected : 0
<5> StartThread Detected : 0
<6> StartThread Detected : 0
<7> StartThread Detected : 0
<8> StartThread Detected : 0
<1>---cannot open the usb serial port. code:32

and it just stopped there for 10 min before I pull the cable and restart the phone.
It didnt flash at all.

Anyone has any idea what did I do wrong?

Cannot open usb serial port Problem
------------------------------------------
As per ronnie039 suggested, I managed to succeed in flashing to 2.0.6 by using another PC.

Force Close Problem
-----------------------
After click Reboot (when prompted on the phone), i encountered the Force Close problem that pop up every few seconds. This problem continues even after Hard reset by dialing *2767*3855#.

*However, if I remove the SIM, the Force Close problem will disappear. Problem will recur if SIM is inserted.

As suggested by Motafoca in the irc channel, i did a hard reset using the following commands (After removing SIM):
adb shell rm -r /data/*
adb shell rm -r /cache/*
adb reboot

This solve all my problem.

Thanks to Ronnie and Motafoca.

I believe you have to move your contacts from SIM to PHONE first. Then you are able to add photo.

Hi guys,

I am puzzled by this. I have downloaded twice our I5503DXJG5 firmware.
On each occassion when I attempted to unzip/unrar this file, I get some CRC failure.

Is the file on http://www.sendspace.com/file/8wd54i corrupted?
