I've used 2.2 I9000XXJP3 and found out that this firmware is very fast but not so stable and extremely power consuming, therefore i flash to 2.1 I9000TGYJH1, which i found it stable and much much power saving... regardless about the speed and the support of adobe flash 10.1, i miss 2.2 contact manager, which allows me to search contact with just partial name... so i have a wild imagination:
is it possible to pull the contact manager out from 2.2 and replace the one in 2.1? if so, how?

hello, sorry to be posting this in an intercept forum, but does anyone about changing the intercept froyo update to work with the moment? they seem similar enough and i feel a bit gyped. i'd probably attempt it myself if it's doable cause i dont think that they're are any custom moment roms, right?
I believe that a release of Cyanogen Mod already implements Froyo. I may be wrong. It's a nightly build/RC release. And the moment has many differences when compared to the intercept, or at least more than you seem to imply.
Unfortunately, I cannot get the 2.2 dump to boot on my Moment. The 2.1 dump from the Intercepted booted, and the Transform 2.1 booted as well. Both had issues though such as
1.Static in the audio
2.No data, or wifi.
3.Camera did not work at all
The kernel for the Intercept did not simply boot on the Moment. Thankfully, since Samsung is lazy the last Froyo for Intercept was more or less AOSP, which depending on what Samsung does when they put out the new Froyo that doesn't brick the Intercept, we may have an Intercept Froyo on the Moment. But I wouldn't worry about it too much, littlejth from SDX developers has an almost working Cmod 6 port working on the Moment, with just issues that have mainly been fixed. That and the Spica has a port of Gingerbread booting, which the Spica is more or less the GSM version of what the Moment is.
If you want to try it, take the system dump of 2.2 from the Intercept, throw it in an update package and see if it'll flash over your current rom.
Yeah it might work, but you are going to get quite a few issues. Note that those very issues might render your phone useless as a mobile device. My suggested option: do what the poster above my post said. Wait for the cyanogen mod Port.
IT WORKS!

2.2.1 working perfectly on my Moment.
Hi guys,
I am new to android world n amature in doing techy things on my mobile. I have updated my os from 2.1 to 2.2 via kies.
I get lag n black screens on my usage. Can anyone help me?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
i laso get some lag end som blackscreens
but i have already done the lagfix.
but i have the brazilian version, also with 2.2 with
baseband i900bvjjpd
kernel 2.6.32.9 [email protected]_lation #3
dunoo if its maybe an app, but i have watchdog and there are no apps misbehaving :/
first of all i think your both in the wrong thread lol, wont get noticed much in this section.......... but anyway
Are you using 2.2 or 2.2.1 ?? there are alot of fixes in the 2.2.1 and is a lot quicker for a stock ROM.
if you wanted even more speed you could go for a custom ROM there is loads to chose from.... but it can get a bit technical so if your unsure DONT DO IT !!!
There are a few things to consider:
- as stated above, you should make sure you get the latest, because 2.2.1 should be available (even officially) pretty much everywhere
- after flashing a factory reset is recommended to get the best performance (do a backup before so you can restore anything)
- there are better kernels out there that can speed up things and make your experience smoother (speedmod, voodoo, tegrak, etc)
- there are custom roms out there that are junk free and should provide a richer better experience.
Hi,
I know my question may be weired to some of experience people out here.
but i am really confused
What is difference between linux kernal update and flashing rom.
how to update kernel on my samsung galaxy s (I9000 2.2 default by samsung)
Thanks
Kernels and ROMs go hand it hand, it pointless getting a custom ROM and keeping stock Kernel. or vice versa
if you look it the development section and look for kernels (speedmod, Voodoo ect) there is a detailed step by step guide to installing them, and what benefits they have... it will make more sense for you to read through it all, than it would for us to try break it down into simple terms
Hey
I used to have a nice ROM installed with a kernel that allowed overclocking. I would run my shift at 1.5Ghz and was really happy. Then when Gingerbread was coming out, I decided to flash a Gingerbread ROM because I was just excited for 2.3
Now there were not kernels for Gingerbread ROMs at that time. So formatted/wiped everything from my device using Clockwork Recovery. Now here's where I have a few questions:
After I wiped the entire device, when my phone booted, it seemed to have 2.3 installed so I assumed that since there was an OTA update for Gingerbread, it must have gotten updated somehow. I want to find out whether I have a custom ROM with 2.3 installed or is it a regular Gingerbread stock ROM that's on my device?
I would like to find out what kind of ROM is installed on my device right now and do whatever it takes to be able to flash a kernel that allows overclocking, because going back to 800Mhz from 1500Mhz is just not doing it.
I would also really appreciate if someone gave me direct links to a custom ROM (since I understand at this time it is impossible to flash an overclocked kernel, since HTC has not released official Gingerbread source code yet) with a flashable kernel that's completely stable and allows overclocking to 1.5Ghz.
I really don't care about the whole Cynaogen Mod etc, because I use LauncherPro anyway and from what I understood when I was reading about Cyanogen Mod, it doesn't change THAT much other than adding a little bit more functionality and mainly focusing on changing the phone interface, which is completely irrelevant to me.
Thank you in advance.

If you just did a wipe and didn't flash anything, your still running the same ROM as you were before the wipe. If you go into setting > about phone > software information > more, this will tell you your current ROM (build version). If you would like to continue using Sense but want to overclock I would suggest MikShift 1.1, otherwise I would suggest the Shift Deck ROM. Both can be overclocked with several different kernels, just do a little reading through the dev section to see what best suites you.
Disregard, just typed what crump said but he beat me to it!
I fear this question may not make a lot of sense... but here goes.
Do developers use accurate firmware numbers in their builds?
For example - [ROM] Bionix-v 1.3.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925548
Shows as a firmware version of 2.2 -> so basically with this rom I am on a "better version" of froyo.
Where as [2.3.5] Trigger - 08/04/11
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1156123
Shows up as 2.3.5 (gingerbread).
Is that correct?
I guess im just having trouble comparing rom versions to their official counterparts.
I think you are very confused on how you are reading this.
I'm currenty using CM7 nightlies gingerbread 2.3.7
the UI is great, but the performance is slow.
I do also miss the old HTC Sense, with google sync.
I want to downgrade to Donut just like before because it works much faster than gingerbread.
Please give me some advice on how to flash old rom,
or give me some tricks, for me to stay and to still use my current gingerbread Rom.
My current clowkworkmod version is 5.xxx.
Thanks in advance
