Revert from 2.2 beta rom - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hello fello xdaers
Im wondering, i was a tad too quick to flash the 2.2 .. well what you say.. research better before flashing beta firmwares..
im searching for a way to revert to 2.1 is that even possible? do i have to wait until official 2.2 is out? since im danish i really love the keyboard in the 2.1 due to the danish special characters.
I have been searching this forum, androidforums.com aswell and samsung-firmware.com
If someone would mind posting a link to the correct firmware, i will be damn happy
Another thing:
in 2.1 eu version, in the email application you can only specify 3 digits in the outgoing smtp port number ( thats a bug no?)
I hope someone is able to help me out here

[QUESTION] Porting from Buzz

Anyone could port this rom?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=867937
ask such question in the Q & A or relevant thread moved to general
There is already a ported buzz(wildfire) froyo rom in developing section.
Is there any specific reason to want this rom, or you just didn't search to find the rom I mentioned above?
If you just want to have froyo with htc's home screen search for the above rom(froyosense the name).
Because this rom isn't the chinese version, but european version...
So, you say that this rom haven't chinese language support?
Maybe it isn't activated. Have you tried morelocale2 to activate chinese?
If you cannot activate them, it's better to contact with the author of this rom to ask him to include them.
No he means that this is the official european version and not a leaked chinese.

I guess you were talking about following ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=816580
as inestain said the above ROM is made from chinese RUU, which has bugs not solved and the developers has kind of stopped developing it any more.
Few bugs in the following posts

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9302591&postcount=249
Although i could solve gps localisation it still needs more fixing like hw button leds and root issue etc.
And i think there are few permission issues as well.
In the past few DEVs have expressed interest in porting if a european RUU gets available.
So I thank inestain for bringing the information.
Sorry I am not going to port it (as i am not dev and I just try things out)
I think could be interesting to try the 2.2.1 qvga htc_ime keyboard
not so different...

[Q] How to install a Froyo Rom?

Hi there,
I was just wondering how to install a Froyo Rom (With A2SD Support, and 2.1 Android Version). I was wondering about this because they're saying something about "Radio Versions" and I have absolutely no idea what that means. Is it to connect to your mobile carrier? Mine's Virgin Mobile Canada, does it make a difference? I really need to know, because I can't take my chances with this phone. How do I know what radio versions I need for the Rom? Do I install it like a normal Rom? I also want one that has root access. Does that make a difference? Thanks for the help because I'm really confused at the moment. Thanks.
PS: I've searched everywhere for a 2.1 Froyo Rom but still can't find one, can someone please give me the link? The reason I don't want 2.2 is because the last time I used a 2.2 Froyo Rom I couldn't get reception to my carrier (Virgin Mobile), and I know I did something wrong, so I'm asking for advice now. Thanks.

Hi, firstly, please read as much as you can before posting
Now, the reason you can't find 2.1 Froyo is because there is no such ROM. Froyo is a codename for Android 2.2 ROMs, just as 2.1 ROMs have codename Eclair etc...
So if you want Froyo, you want 2.2.
As I have told you in the other thread, read stickies in Development. To get root access, you have to root first - not sure if you have done that, but anyway, read some howtos on rooting any other techniques and you will find out how to fllash a ROM.
Abot the Bell canada thing, I think you are on WCDMA there,which means you have to have a Radio for that - that's what the fuzz is about(about different versions of radios and their receptions). But I'm not sure if you even need a special radio, you'll have to find out in development.
Here are STICKIES
Good luck!

Thought about customs ROMs?
Custom Rom
Thanks for your reply
I don't know what you mean.
Please explain
Idoz
You can root your phone and put custom system software or custom ROMs. Those roms usually contain more recent versions of android. Visit your device section on xda.
Xda app
As far as I know there is no device section for the Samsung GT-I7500 on XDA.
All I could find was an update from Android 1.5 tot 1.6.
And that was not yet working 100%.
And Samsung is not planning an update for the GT-I7500.
I send them an email but they did not respond.
So I wonder why there are offered Samsung GT-I7500 devices in Holland with Android 2.2.
Could anyone give me a link to where I can find more information about this?
Thank you in advance
Kind regards from Holland

Check out this blog post.
hxxp://w w w.gadgetsdna.com/eclair-2-1-gaosp-on-samsung-galaxy-i7500-android-phone-goes-public-beta/1705/
I believe the current beta is Android 2.2 Froyo, instead of downloading the suggested mod (instruction #1 on blog) Visit the gaosp website hxxp://code.google.com/p/gaosp/downloads/list and download GAOSP-2-PUBLIC-BETA-3.zip
There are mods for the i7500 at http:// forum.samdroid.net/f11/
(remove the space)
This is probably not THE site for that particular phone, but it's a start
There is BETA 3 of Froyo 2.2.1 on i7500. It is a port of CyanogenMod 6.
Go here: code.google.com/p/gaosp and www.drakaz.com (check the first page and then go to forum)
Thanks for all the information.
I have downloaded the beta 3 file. Now I am looking for a guide to upgrade the phone. (any suggestions?)
I have upgraded several windows phones with roms from the xda forum (htc s-740, 730 ,710 etc.) but this is new for me.
I hope that I will find it.
And I also hope that the upgrade will be an improvement.
I understood that the phone will be slower (older hardware)and that there are still some bugs to be solved.
What do you recommend?
All suggestions are welcome.
Sorry for my bad english

[Q] Froyo 2.2.1 and GOLDCARD. Install unbranded rom

I have a question about goldcards
I've installed sometime ago the Froyo 2.2.1 OTA update. (what a pity !)
I've a spanish branded wildfire by vodafone.
My question is: with a goldcar could I install some HTC official rom (the ones that came in a exe file) or google official rom or any other to unbrand my phone ?
I'm not speaking about rooting because we all know that today is impossible for 2.2.1.
Anyone could post a link for that kind of roms ? Could I install it ?
Thanks a lot.
NOTE: If you post a link, please, send us if it's a spainsh rom, and if is htc's one or google's one or whatever.
Im interesting too in roms signed (specially if there is some without sense, but i think there isnt though).
Please, 253 views and none knows about it
Please, help us. May be a link ?
Thanks a lot.
There are another 2.2 threads
Please read before posting

[Q] Which Android version ?

Hi.
I'm a bit in doubt on which verion of Android is on my GT540.
I think it's 2.1, but want to know if it's correct.
Please see the link here:
Oh, I'm so new, that I'm not allowed to show links :-(
I then do it this way:
Firmwareversion: 2.1-update 1
Kernelversion:2.6.29
If it is 2.1, and I want to upgrade, shall I then follow which versions ?
I mean is there an order of hierarchy ?, and if so how does that look ?
Yes it seems you are running official LG 2.1 rom. If you wish to update it you can jump directly to any rom you like 2.2 2.3 or 4.0 . Just follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224747
@-Grift-
Hi and many thanks for your reply. Was good to know that
Another matter if you can tell me it ?.
I have installed Navdroyd, and SVOX.
I have my mother language to work ok IN SVOX, but not
when I run Navdroyd.
Should the GT540's built in text-to-speech be deselected, and if so how.
Sorry i dont use Navigation or Text to speech apps
All ok and understood
Maybe another one that knows about it will jump in.
Thanks anayway
Yep im sure someone will
IT IS 2.1
I m sure it is 2.1
