[Q] Galaxy GT-I7500 android update - Android Software Development

Hello,
I have a Samsung GT-I7500 working with Android 1.5.
I have problems with a poor working usb connection and blue tooth (transmitting pictures)
I am looking for an upgrade to Andoid 2.1 or 2.2
Is this possible?? On the internet there are offered GT-I7500 devices working with Android 2.2 in Holland.
After searching for a few weeks i could not find a link on Internet for upgrading my poor working Android 1.5
Thank you in advance
with kind regards

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

market is missing HTC magic stc

hi friends,
i have a htc magic(stc saudiarabia ) with version 2.56.415.5
the phone doesn't have android market in it....
is it need to update the rom for to get???
pls help me
thanks in advance
This does not look like the correct forum for this question brother...
But anyway, let me try to answer your question. I do not know your case exactly, but I have seen other examples with different android devices. One of my friends has a Samsung Galaxy S with only Samsung Apps and no Market installed for instace.
You can fix the issue either by installing the android Market application (search the forum), or better flash a different official/unoficial ROM.
Good luck!

Spica is a very peculiar device due to its hardware. There is a full developers site for it, have a look to forum[dot]samdroid[dot]net (sorry, I'm new and not allow to post external links)
Currently I'm on Gingerbread 2.3.7 (based on Cyanogenmod 7), but still has some TODO's, like finishing Camera (it works but without a custom preview) or Bluetooth audio (for car hands free, for example), but it is a very smoth version, and under continuos development. I really recommend it.
Also you will find many flavours of Froyo, with all drivers working.
Regards.

[Q] Reboot HTC HD2 to WM 6.5 from android 2.2

Hi guys, I'm pretty much a newbie to this all and was wondering if anyone could help me get my HD2 back to its original settings of being on WM6.5.
I recently upgraded it to 2.2 by NAND ( no idea what that means) but I was successful on getting it up and running on android.
Im now trying to be more adventurous and see if I can boot the rom to 4.4 but just for safe measures, I'd like to know how I can get the system back. Also if anyone can post the links of what Id need to download to get it to 4.4 and how I need to do that from 2.2 would be great. I don't know if I could just upload another android version on top of the 2.2 or if I would have to remove that first.
Thank you in advance

In future search before posting. To flash a higher version of Android (although 4.4 doesn't exist yet and probably never will) check out the guide in my sig. To flash a stock ROM just download one from the HTC website and flash the RUU in the bootloader.
I tried looking for previous posts that would hep, but this stuff is completely going over my head and I am still determined to get my HTC on an upgraded android version. What android version would you recommend? anything more up-to-date than 2.2 would be great (with everything working, I have read posts where some people have had problems with the camera not working)
I have had a look on the HTC website and they no longer support HD2 :-/ How can I restore it? *confused* I'm a complete newbie and a noob, yup both, but I will not be giving up
Further guidance would be great.
I think a JB ROM would be good if you want functionality and the latest version. If you want stability then 2.3 is probably best. The only real solution is to try a few ROMs out and see what you like best.

htc hd2 no sound when you turn on gps bluetooth

Friends, I am looking and wanted to put android 4.4 on my htc hd2 kitkat ...
until arrangement have version 4.0.4 which gives up to spending ...
works well ... is stable ...
but when I turn on the GPS NDrive is whether the IGO if the bluetooth connected no sound ...
I turn off the bluetooth GPS works well ...
I've seen and reviewed the settings of GPS and Android and nothing ...
because friend? the reason friends?
thank you all
Hello and welcome,
You seem to be new here, let me be your guide.
First of all, Android 4.4 is not released yet, so you can't have it on your HD2 device. And even when it is released, that does not guarantee that the HD2 will get it.
Secondly, this has nothing to do with SD development. Development forums are only for posting stuff you made/contributed to. Questions and problems should go to the HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and General section. And please don't double thread, if you have two questions just ask them in the one thread.
Last but not least, you did not provide us with any information about your device. Without information, we can't help you. Type everything about the device then we might be able to help you.
Enjoy your stay here and have fun.

Okay, this is going to be difficult. By "device information" I meant what ROM do you have? Don't say Android 4.0.4, tell us the exact name of the ROM or give us a LINK. I don't use bluetooth so I don't know, all I can do is to suggest you to search within the ROM's thread.

without removing the merit to anyone this magnificent forum posts was this video that helped me put android on my htc hd2 ...
through this video is that the friend can tell you what the reason my gps have the problem they have?

Unfortunately, I don't use bluetooth so I don't know if there's a problem with that particular ROM. Search the term "bluetooth" here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434860 and see if you find any hits.
Android kitkat 4.4 doesn't work yet with HTC HD2
I've try Android kitkat 4.4 onto my HTC HD2 for about (3 weeks ago) but doesn't work. So i've put other rom onto my phone called by name; <NexusHD2-JellyBean-CM10.2_V3.zip> onto my Kingston SDcard 16 GB and run these Android 4.3 firmware (now for 2 weeks) onto my HTC HD2 without fails and also even faster then ever before (other Android roms) and also look a like that wifisignal also been stronger then for years ago...
I'll still waiting when Android kitkat 4.4 is compatible with my HTC HD2 but i'll found a Android 4.3 firmware onto my internetbrowser <http://android.hd2roms.com/all-builds/> and this works super! There's no app or something else whats going to crashed...
I like my almost 3 1/2 years old (crazy ****ing machine called by name) HTC HD2...:victory::cyclops::good:

Hello there.
The Androidversion 4.0.4 is not even the kitkat 4.4 and also the romversions Android 4.0.4 till 4.2.2 is not even a kitkat,
but i've running now for almost twoo weeks the Androidversion 4.3 and still this is not even a kitkat, but a cyanmogen (CM) 10.2 and
these latest <http://android.hd2roms.com/all-builds/> romversion works very good and fine with HTC HD2 and is very fast and stable.
This rom download (see above these line) is for free, but be patient when you started upload Androidversion 4.3, because it cost about time 30 minutes when everything is ready.
It's about 15 minutes for uploading .zip rom from SDcard and after when phone started automatically (after .zip rom installed) cost again 15 minutes when .zip rom run into screen (*light blue circle/turning around like a mirror clock* with inside wroten words *Cyanmogen*,also wroten in color light blue) and these circle with Cyanmogen inside shall run about 10 minutes after screen going over to uploading apps after 5 or even more minutes ready and your HTC HD2 shall run after finish to adjust phone first time...
Wanna need more turtorial (How to change/upload HTC HD2 Android version 2.2.1 till 4.2.2 into Android version 4.3)...
I shall layout step by step what to do, and it's very simple to upload the Android version 4.3
Friendly greetings, Bertussie
