Help Samsung Galaxy S - Indian thread

Hi, I finally got to update to Doc's BUJP8 v9. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to have Voodo brightness or color fix :( .
Is it working for anyone running JUDP8?
After setting the autokiller to aggressive, I am getting reasonably good free memory.(with strict, it was aweful at 66 MB,
usually only around 110 MB even after killing all apps..will have to take a closer look into that, as it is not
fully solved.)

But, the biggest problem I am facing is that when setting the voice recognition language to English(India), it
(finally) recognizes what I speak, but always does a google search. For eg. Navigate to Delhi, would be shown as a
google search. But, when setting to any other English (For eg.English(Generic)), it is working fine, but is not able
to properly understand my language..

PLEASE HELP, guys!!

GO get the official Foryo..its out now

@talktoanil,
That is great news !! (I was pretty sure that Galaxy S would release this month or dec 1st week, despite the rumours. But, was tired of waiting :p )

Anyway, I'd still like to find out the solution to my problem. Namely, voice actions not working everything being identified as a search action when using English(India)..
I'm tired of changing the ROM's, please help.. :) (Unlike others, it's a pain for me, as I don't have net at home and have to resort to download using my mobile)..

Would love to know your opinion on the official froyo, though. For eg, battery life, voice actions, general speed,swype version(is it still the buggy 2.44.?) etc..

Those on Doc's ROM: No need to downgrade.. Doc's ROM is wayyyyyy faster than stock firmware..

That's good to know. :)
Could you please help me regarding my previous query?
(Also, that zip align fix, you were supposed to run it just after the flashing to the new rom was done, right? by selecting "install from zip file", then browsing to the "zip-align fix. zip " file, same as what you do for installing the ROM right?)..

And another thing, how much free RAM are u supposed to have, if you end all applications? (For me, with "aggressive" settings, it may be just 130-140, will have to check :(.. Am I doing anything wrong?)

Hi All

I have just installed 2.2 on my SGS and it is not lagging much but I was thinking of doing a factory reset. The only question is that will it affect any of apps installed or do I need to create a backup before doing 'Factory Reset'

Btw I was looking for new features of 2.2 and I can't find many of them on mine. For e.g.
1. new user interface for the gallery
2. new UI for managing applications

Apart from these 2, are there any APPARENT modifications/ improvement that a normal user would recognize.

@Enthrall,

Thanks for your detailed impressions of the changes in the new firmware.
I'd love to know whether voice search is working properly for you (with language : English (India) and otherwise)..

Heya,

I didn't try it out earlier, and I can't try it out now because it's asking me for a data connection. Mine's disabled for some reason (I don't think it's because of FroYo hehe).
I'll post it as soon as I find out.
