I can't find the fix on the forum, if there is already a fix, please guide me there.
I flash voodo with lagfix, and then it boots to the recovery screen after the second time reboot. I also try to boot to the download mode by holding volume+usb plug-in, but Kies always shows connecting device, and it never gets connected. Please help. Any help will be appreciated.
Hmm.. I can't help you with the voodoo fix but I can help you try to get out of this bug,
move down and select cache partition, run it. then move up to wipe data, select it and run it. Now this will delete all your data. now reboot. see if the machine works. if so good. Now see if you can install that voodoo update.zip fix again. if not good I highly recommend you don't run it as it tends to eat alot of battery power for me. Worst case you could just install JM8 and look for this Ta-something rom which has voodoo 4 built in.

This is what's going on with my phone.
Downgrade to rc-29,
Use JF's guide to activate over wifi,
Root, flash the hard spl,
Then the radio (2.22.19.26I),
Then flashed cm-4.0.4,
Then partitioned your sdcard to 1.5gb fat32, 500mb ext3,
Then tried to do a nandroid restore of 4.1.11.1 that had been past the sign in screen,
Then removed the ext3 partition from sdcard, and now you are where you are now.
As you can see in the Video
Everytime i try to call, got to contacts, use the market, text i get a error message saying something suchas
The process (process.android.acore) has stopped unexpectedly, or The process (com.android.phone) or other errors similar to these.
When some one calls me it doesnt even acknowledge that, it just send them to voicemail and i'll never know it
I also cant touch the screen ... it isn't responding to touch, and the rotate isn't working anymore either, The Airplane mode comes on by its self
**Note, it was working perfectly fine the touch and everything until i partition the sdcard then a couple hours after i did that the phone seems as it if caught a virus so i don't know what to do i just basically want to use the market, call, & text.. because everything else works btw the touch screen sensor. so if you can help please do, if not i may just unroot it and send it to HTC, if i can't fix it ;/
This has nothing to do with development. Try posting in the correct section.

needs to be in Q&A
also need more information, is it rooted or not, if rooted what build is bein used
Best thing to do is wipe it and re-install the ROM.
Turn off your G1.
Turn it on while holding the home button. Wait for the recovery screen to appear.
Press ALT-W (This will wipe your phone's data!)
When it's done wiping, restart the phone, check if it works.
If not, then install the Cyanogen ROM again.

anyone else notice her screen is mirrored? i think it was the video, but it threw me off for a sec... in any case, try wiping and reinstalling rom. if that doesnt work, unroot, go back to factory settings and see if the screen works then. if it does, retry the whole process (rooting) make sure you are using the correct radio and the correct spl. if you still cant figure it out, get an iphone
Don't make movies with a mirror..
could be a hardware problem? doubt it though
Hello
I am in a great panic mode.
I applied this lagfix : forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7587405&postcount=417 and since I did it I cannot use my phone.
I am not able to start my phone. It shows me Galaxy S logo, and after that I hear the start up music but nothing on the screen (no animation). Pressing hardkeys does not do anything either.
Above all I cannot even enter my recovery mode. When I press volumedown+poweron button, the screen keeps showing me Galaxy S logo and it does not go any further.
Please help me if you know how to getaround.
Were you rooted when yoou applied update.zip?
Anyway,did you try to shutdown the phone removing battery,and then try entering recovery?
the fix did not mention I had to root my phone, it said it would self install.
Yes I did shut down after removing the battery, and then I am trying to get into recovery using volumedown+poweron button but I am not able to get into it. All I see is Galaxy logo and hear start up music after that with nothing on screen.
OK, I am able to get into recovery mode.. I was trying wrong combinations
Now what should I select I get these options:
1. reboot system now
2. apply sdcard:update.zip (will never do this again)
3. wipe data/factory reset (should I do this)
4. wipe cache partition
yes.. you should do 3.) wipe data. If that doesnt solve your problem, you need to flash firmware agian

Why did you choose to install something not on main page, something obviosuly not very tested and something 2 month old (god knows there are close to ten newer or more tested fixes).
If you can access download mode, than reflash. If not... Well, try the exotic methods (dont know them, as I have working 3 butons)
Hey, for a second I thought it did noy fix my problem as I did not get my animation screen and ony heard music.. But then suddenly it starts up
I think I lost my animation on start up though
I still see that MCR Scripts icon on app loader screen, How could I know if its enabled or disabled?
Thanks a lot guys.. XDA rocks .

I regret doing something like that.. But it was really confusing as there are so many topics on the forum and I was really tempted to solve the lag issue I started facing recently (I installed too many apps).
hey i have the same problem.. my phone goes up into the Samsung logo and hangs there forever, occasionally blinking and making a weird vibration. i've tried factory reset but that doesn't help..
How do i flash firmware again?

I have just upgraded to FROYO through KIES after 3 HOURS of waiting.
But my is stuck at boot screen & vibrates..
i had tried the recovery but no use.
please help me...
my phones also stuck at boot screen I cant even go to download mode it says POWER RESET or UNKNOWN UPLOAD MODE anyone else have these problems?
my phone does the same thing after I upgrade via kies, as well as flash samfirmware.com rom....stuck at boot screen and vibrate and black screen, but I'm still able to go to download mode...
I'm able to flash to one customer rom, but then not able to go into clockworkmod recovery anymore...always give me signture verification failed, even when I choose reboot to recovery in ROM Manager.
Is there anyone can help?
I experience the same. I took out the battery, go to Recovery mode.
Clear system and cache. No use, it does not solve the vibrating issue while Froyo running.
Then, I go to Recovery, format internal SD, clear system and cache.
Boot into Froyo, do a factory reset.
Froyo been running 24 hours. no big issues. when running multiple complex tasks, SGS vibrates for 1-2 times while lag (memory??), then back to normal operation.
When normal, it runs smooth and stable.
Will test for more hours.
Try flahing the new rom via Odin, that should sort it out. samfirmware has a guide on this and all the stock roms you could wish for, or theirs plenty of info on xda. Also remember it's always best to do a factory reset before flashing a new rom or updating, especially when going from 2.1 - 2.2. Use titanium or nandroid to backup before hand. I had similar problems with Kies, in the end I uninstalled it and just use odin, much more reliable
Hi guys. Yesterday night I was installing a few new apps but the seemed to be stuck installing forever. So I decided to reboot. However, after the reboot, it never goes past the second boot screen.
I know I can just flash to another rom but is there a way to save my data in the instance? I can still get into recovery mode if that helps. Thanks
I've read you can hook up to your pc and mount your sdcard from cwm. Never tried it but if it works you can save your data that way then maybe a master clear/cache or dalvik wipe will help.

You can mount USB in recovery and get all your stuff off of your SD that way. You can also nandroid your current ROM in CWM and re-flash it, then restore from backup. As far as saving texts and all that, Idk if you can, but I'm sure someone else does.
Also, you could try clearing dalvik, cache, and then running the kernel cleaning script. It's gotten me out of a few binds before. It might help you to where you wouldn't have to flash again.
I just installed safestrap, and planned to install the darkdroid rom. it was all going according to plan, until it wasn't
Booted into safestrap. made my initial back up. wiped data/cache. Installed rom from zip. Bootloop. I can't get past the safestrap menu. screen just goes black. sometime it will start over again sometimes not.
I tried using safestrap to recover. same issue.
I was going to use RSDlite to try to recover, but it won't let me select AP fastboot. nothing happens when I hit the up volume-up key to select ap fastboot. RSDlite does not need to see my phone.
I just need to get my phone back. at this point i do not care what i have to flash, i just need it to work! Thoughts? any help? I need it
well.... not so dead in teh water i guess.... just disabled teh safe system, and booted back to original.
but still do not know what happene with the install of darkdroid. Any thoughts on what i may have done wrong? does it matter if i download the zip to my pc and then transfer to sdcard, or shoudl i dl it right to the phone?
heart attack averted, but still need help updating my POS
There shouldn't have been a problem, although i usually just download via my phone. try downloading something stable like liberty or mavrom or an earlier steel droid. If it still messes up then you know the problems on your end. Sounds like just a bad flash though try downloading it again from your phone with a good constant wifi connection and try again.
I tested a few roms that only worked with bootstrap and not safestrap. Try installing it in bootstrap
