From what I've seen Galaxy S is th only phone with Bluetooth 3.0..
I'm just curious as to what this will bring to the table that other phones will not be able to...
I hope there are some nifty bluetooth gadgets in production for our vibrant!
faster data transfer through bluetooth.
You will be prevented from using the Ryan Frawley's Wiimote App! Congratulations on your bluetooth 3.0 phone!
(And to provide at least some helpful information, he has not responded to any questions about the galaxy s line, our future froyo update may fix this for us).
@PathogenX, Yes I knew that...
@SquareBare yes i'm also aware of that.. i'll just have to wait... i'm liking the multi touch control... which works perfectly so i don't mind waiting til froyo to see what happends ...
i guess i was looking to see if this will mean video streaming or something... i think i saw an article like that b4.. but can't remember
anyways Thank you both for ur fast replies ...!!
The SGS family is the only smartphones in the world (if i'm not mistaken) to have BT 3.0. Okay, the Samsung Wave had it first.

Well, more of the blame lies on samsung than Mr. Frawley.
I read somewhere on these forums that Samsung implemented the bluetooth standard in a somewhat bizarre way. Kind of like how you have to swap wires around when you are connecting the video cable to your TV.
From what I see though, Samsung has acknowledged the issue and will correct it with the upcoming froyo update.

Samsung gets the blame for using the latest technology? How does that work?
I read in a press release from January of last year that the two main features of 3.0 is faster transfer and better battery life. In addition there is suppose to be some security enhancements.
It uses 802.11 to transfer the files like wifi does to transfer files to and from you phone.
http://www.gsmarena.com/bluetooth_30_specs_revealed_goes_up_to_11_thanks_to_80211-news-885.php
This isn't the article that I found before but this is one from the source.
http://www.bluetooth.com/English/Press/Pages/PressReleasesDetail.aspx?ID=16
The article I seen explained the bt/wifi thing better and said that bt 4.0 should be out by the end of this year.
Can someone please put the PacMan .apk here? It is showing that it is free on Samsung Apps but it wont let me download it. It says that it is not optimized for my device???
Why is it there then?

Are you checking Samsung Apps from PC or straight from your phone ? If you check from PC you need to select the phone type or else it will show you all available apps for all types of Samsung phones. Never saw Pac Man in my Samsung apps.

I get the same error. It's not just for Pac Man either though, it's all apps published by Electronic Arts which gives the same error: The Sims 3, Need for Speed Shift HD, and Tetris HD. Basically, all the ones that are trials that lets you play once for 4 minutes.
Might be a CSC thing? Mine is an Australian Optus branded SGS2.

Actual error: "Unable to download. Application not optimised for device(8002)."

Yup... Thats the same error I am getting... That sucks...

Does ANYONE here have the .apk available for the "FREE" version of PacMan that is on "Samsung Apps"? I am not asking for a pirated version or anything, just the free app advertised on Samsung apps...
Anyone at all?
What's wrong with just getting one of the many versions of PacMan available on the Market?

It's not free. You get 4 minutes of play and then you have to buy it!
The Namco version is available on the market. Yes, you have to pay for that as well, but it's not a clone.
Incidentally, it's £1.86.
Ok so... I have just gone back into Samsung Apps and I am now seeing (not sure if it was there before) that PacMan is listed as being compatible with Donut v1.6 of Android. Does that mean it is ONLY compatible with Donut?
That is really stupid considering that Samsung Apps is open to ALL versions of the OS and if this is the case then why dont they just not list these apps on a phone / OS version running Gingerbread or up?
STUPID!!!

ok guys I am on O2 uk and im having the same problem with latest f3 fw,
I tried to investigate the problem and i read some where that samsung made 2 versions of this phone one with NVIDIA tegra 2 and the other with Exynos.
People claimed that those games work on Tegra rather than sammy cpu.
However these r not confirmed news so please check it

Well I can't quote you an official statement that something that someone made up doesn't exist, if that's what you want
It's just quite clearly "another one of those stories" like the ROM counter counter, that counts how many times you've reset the ROM counter. I mean, come on! Next we'll be being told that Harry Potter is based on a true story!
Wait... what? Harry Potter isn't based on true events? That's just preposterous.
I c, so No answer & Mr.Potter is a fictional story

I was wondering if someone could help me with this question. I am considering buying one, but I want to know if you are able to install the navionics app? It didn't appear to be availabe on the flyer due to the resolution, but it is available on plenty of other HTC devices.
Any help would be greatly apreciated!

Not seeing it come up in the market when I search. Sorry dude.
Thanks. I guess I'll be waiting a bit. I have heard there is a way to download it and force an install, but it would be easier just going through the market.
this is the one reason that app store is still surpassing android market. All apps work on their devices. Isn't android 3.2 supposed to fix this?
Does anyone know if there is a way to see what is available in the android market for a specific device? I have quite a few apps I like on the iphone that is keeping me from making the jump over to android. I would love nothing better than to get away from IOS, but as for the apps I commonly use, I would like to ensure being able to keep them.

The Jetstream is running 3.1, not 3.2
Also, I just installed 3.2 on my Xoom today and still no Netflix, although that might be due to the CPU type.
Would someone mind looking in the travel category on the jetstream andriod market place? I have read it doesn't always turn up in the search. It is supposed to be able to work on any Android OS greater than 1.6 with an SD card, but is just not certified on anything but the Samsung Galaxy Tab (which is because that doesn't have an SD card).
Thanks again for the help. I am itching to buy this thing, but I hate to have to return it if it doesn't work.
Checked the travel section, no go.
I assume you're talking about apps like this one from Navionics? If so, it's not available for the Jetstream, possibly not tablets in general.
On the possibly bright side, there's another marine mapping app called Marine Charts HD that is available for the Jetstream.

It's not showing in the market... Hopefully the support it soon as it's on my mandatory app list.
Sidenote: Love the Jetstream so far, would def. recommend.
I got a canned response from Navionics customer service. They still say that it is supposed to work on any device with 1.6 or greater that has an SD card.
I think you can download it onto your computer, but this will be my first android device, and I am not sure how you install apps from a PC onto the android OS. If you can load it on the SD card and install it on the device, it might be available.
Also, when does 3.2 come out? And when does the Jetstream get that upgrade? Isn't that supposed to fix the problem with apps working on varying screen resolutions?
There is a navionics apk file that supposedly works on some tablets. I don't know if it works on honeycomb, but if anyone wants to try it, I'd love to know if it works. I guess you just google navionics apk, and install it. If it works it will let you download the charts.
Post a link to the apk, I will install and let you know the process / results.

I don't know if this is a good torent link, but it is the first one that came up when I googled it. I was going to download it myself, but I still don't have anything to use it on.
I just downloaded an apk for the east coast. It loads, looks great, but doesn't seem to be pulling gps location, which basically renders it useless. I'll reboot and try again later when outside.
Note: I own this already, so downloading the apk isn't poaching.
Great! Hopefully the kinks will be worked out. I will be purchasing it shortly, but still waiting on a commission to come in before I committ. If this ends up working though, I would be very happy indeed.
I get the impression that Navionics is waiting for Ice Cream Sandwhich, which would lower their development costs. It is supposed to be out October/November. I just hope the jetsteam gets the update and sense doesn't slow it down too much.
Tested it again outside after reboot and can confirm that the gps function is not working.
I'm sure they'll roll it out soon. None of the other chart apps come even close.
Just got an email from Navionics that they now support Honecomb. Anyone care to check if it is available in the android market from the jetstream?
Thanks for the help!

Hi guys, I think we should have a separate section here so that we could share our experiences with this particular model...I am very sorry if I pissed off any moderators here but since there are no threads regarding this model I felt like I had to do it
I wanna start by telling you that I bought this model for 550$ from Seoul just a week ago and I am very happy. Actually my aim was to get Samsung Galaxy S 3 but I missed it by a week But then saw this phone and said lets give it a try. And guess what , I am more than impressed Anyways after checking couple of forums I saw that official ICS Package was out I upgraded it and then rooted by the help of this forum. Definitely better performance and nice tweaks. But this came with one small issue ; sms problem. when there is an incoming SMS it says "No Caller ID" . Again after little bit googling I found the app called Handcent and it did the trick. Until an international or custom Rom comes out this could be the solution I suppose
One of the biggest differences of the Korean version is you cant go in to the secret menus by typing the secret codes in to the keypad so that caused some trouble while looking for the imei number and trying to change the SMSC ...
Lets share our experiences here so that anyone who has this version can find it here without too much hustle...

I will leave open for now but I think this will not go far, since there are not a lot of Korean Note user to interact with........... If you could please root your phone and provide a sys-dump and kernel and modem extraction would be very helpful to the community....

I already investigated , the blocks dont seem to be the same , the kernel is not the same either , probably needs to be reoriented or somethign and the usr key layout (obviously) needs to be changed . so with a modified updater script and proper kernel by flashing only system it *should work*
Why is this in the development thread? Rom/Mods/Modems only from what I am aware of.

Why don't you just make a bounty thread? If money is involved maybe it might convince a dev to try cooking up a rom and making a custom kernel. It is always nice to get free development but money can motivate people. Put up some money and I am sure others will too and see if you can't get it done. I have seen lots of other threads on your model and I know everyone with your device wants it badly. Its worth a try anyway.
So if I was to unlock my i717 and took it to Korea it would work with their service providers? :s

hi people, i use this korean model as well.
I am new to android (in fact, started 2 months ago) and not a native english speaker. So, i'm having a lot trouble with some technical words u guys use.
The thing is, i'm thinking of rooting my phone. but there arent much forums and threads on this model. I was wondering if the rooting guides here would work on my phone? and there are so many of em (also for i717...) ...
SOOooo, if possible could you quote the rooting guide (or link to thread) which will definitely work on my phone. i cant afford to make my phone obsolete
Help is much appreciated. Thanks
(btw, i'm from Mongolia. heya, fellow earthlings... haha)
Korean devs are at androidpub and matpclub, but not really serious development is there. Few kernel devs like tegrak and mostly cosmetic/porting from International ROM.
Korean note have 32GB/64GB variety, three diffrent carrier (SKT: HSPA+2100 LTE800/1800, KT: HSPA+2100 LTE1800, LGU: CDMArev.B1800 LTE800), hardware button, DMB, carrier specific addon plugins and frameworks, and pink note
and SHV-E160L for LGU, which is CDMA only(like Verizon). Pretty sure ATT note ROMs are not portable.

Reported for taking the discussion off topic.
Why would you even tell him? Better yet...why care? At least he started one thread for a whole model, to discuss all parts. He could be proliferating. Lets be nice here.
When there was no i717 forum, people discussed it in the Int. forum.
The i717R is discussed here...even though the forum is titled "AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717" as it should be.
Be easy on him. This is good for a chat, and it's about as close to the right place as it gets. He was honest about the fact that he knew there was no other place, and he was nice.
And his specific version has LTE and is powered by a snapdragon. So perhaps this truely is as good as it gets on XDA.

I was searching for an answer for my sms problem and I found out an answer for something else. I was not able to enter any secret codes for the system menus before now it turns out that there is a hidden menu placed by the korean network which you can enter by typing 319 712 358 and then when it asks fr the password you type 0821 and Vala! You have access to the system settings now.
Now here is the question I can not make a video call because my LTE/3G server dns is a korean server address. Does anybody know where I could find the network server dns addresses for the Gsm Networks...
i broke my e160s menu and back button by flashing i717 kernel. i was able to flash cwm and i717 roms but orientation and those buttons are not working. flashing back original kernel and firmware didnt restore those buttons. i could get the phone back working without those buttons. but now i have to use another app to trigger those buttons.

Hi , as far as I know you can unbrick or recover your phone from any kind of situation. They have released the tool to do that. I can not post another forum's link here so just check the chinese version xda which is koxda and use google translate. You can find a lot of info there but it is hard to understand because of the translation. So actually that is the main reason I started this thread...
Im Glad man that youve open this threat for us.
i also use this device. Galaxy note shv-e160..UNRAZ how did you fix your sms problem? need it badly?? please
As I have wrote before in one of my posts in this thread I solved this with the free app called Handcent sms where you could download it from the market I can both send and recieve sms with no problem. But one handicap is I cant use any Turkish characters nor can exceed the 160 characters limit. Then you see the failed sending the message error... I am waiting for the update which would hopefully solve all the miseries One of the guys in this forum installed Honeycomb from the Koxda forum and solved the problem like that but I dont like using old firmware while there is an update

if someone could help me out with this it would be a REALLY big help to me thank you to anyone who reads this and an even bigger thank you to the person(s) who help.

Option 1: return it to seller, demand s/he send you another one with pure stock firmware on it, not a custom one or request for the refund.
Option 2: reverse back to stock (from CM) yourself. Since you're here, you should have read anyway, so read up those threads especially the stickies and DIY.

The other posters Actually have given you good advice, and it appears that they have pointed you to the place to answer your question! Really!
It sounds like you have a modified Straight Talk phone (please note that the ATT version is I777 and the ST version is S959G. It would be interesting to know whether you have an I777s or S959G).
IF you have an S959G, then your best bet is to check the thread posted down below as Phalanx and the others have mentioned --it's literally below the post you created (several posts below now, just look for the title "Straight Talk SGS2- SGH-S959G" (<- or click on these "straight talk" words)
It may seem frustrating to get a phone that is customized, and right now you just want a phone; However, you actually have one of the nicest and newest roms available for this type of phone!
IF your phone boots CM10.1 and you have the normal android screens, then you have everything that the ST or AT&T company would provide on a "normal" phone, but without some of the junk and advertising that often infects our phones! Try it out! The interface is not that much different from "stock."
Still, if you don't like your phone that way, YOU can fix it and it is not really hard, but just takes some reading and patience to gain understanding of the techniques and processes (learning the principles also is interesting! :laugh
But it will take you at least a few hours of reading, and a bit patience to scan through the Straight Talk links and pages. If you do that you'll see others who have your issue, and also others who turned the issue around to make it a plus!
A modified phone is more of a commitment than a stock phone -but it returns more to the user! Especially if you want to adjust it, enhance it, or appreciate it, you have to put in time.
If that's not for you -perhaps turn it around on ebay. But a working CM10.1 on a Galaxy S2 is a good machine!
Good Luck
