Just flashed cognition and com.android.phone crashes constantly - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well I just got my cappy today. I decided to install froyo, I went with cognition.
So i rooted, installed Rom manager, backed up. Installed Titanium backup. Backed up everything i didn't knew what it was. Installed cognition.
After this when it loaded it keeps giving me this error constantly and lagging the phone. Since its my first android phone I'm not sure what to do. I didn't restored anything with Titanium, though I'm not sure if this program does this automatically...
I cleared user data and cache and the error persists.
I'm currently on Ubuntu on my pc so odin is not an option. So I want to have the phone working fast, preferrably with froyo, should i download another rom and reflash with rom manager? Any ideas on what I've done wrong or why the error is displayed?
I'm very thankfull for any sort of help, premature answers are more than welcomed

Either try to get odin to work with ubuntu... Wine?
Find someone with windows PC and odin.
Dual boot xp / 7 and do it yourself

First this is NOT the area for questions per se this is for DEVELOPMENT.
I suggest you try in the General or Q&A section or in this case the Cognition thread since that is the one having issues for you.
Without ODIN I cannot recommend anything so I suggest you try the Cognition thread amigo.
Regards

Just removed my simcard and the error stopped
Does this mean the phone is no longer unlocked?
I bought the phone unlocked so I'm not sure how to restore it to the way it was. Should the unlock code still be somewhere over my phone internal memory? Any quick ideas on how to do this? Or should i look into the whole unlocking post on froyo?

Check out this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=778609. It involves setting up a VM(virtual machine) but that is a very easy task. I hope you find this helpful. But do not flash over Cog. You need to use Odin, flash back to stock, do a master clear and then re-flash Cog via CWM.

You prob's flashed Cognition right after the reboot forced by ClockworkRecovery, so the media scan wasn't completed, phone freaked and just lost most of its powarrrr.
Oh yeah: wrong subforum...

Sorry about the subforum btw

That sounds logic. Any ideas on what should I do so I can make the phone stop giving me this error with my simcard inside?

btw i dont know if this has anything to do but with my simcard inside i noticed 2 things
First it gets gsm signal crashes, looses the signal, regains it and this loops over and over.
After this i also noticed one service restarts over and over when this happens

This happened to me once, so I went back into recovery and used CM to reflash. My files were still on the root of the internal SD card, so I figured I'd give it a shot. It worked for me - cleared up my FC problems.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what do you mean by using CM to reflash? When i boot into recovery i only have three options:
reinstall
clear user data
clear cache

Select reinstall - hopefully it will launch the CM recovery mode. Then you can select to install from the SD card.

Just reinstalled cognition but it still has the same problem. Should i download the i9000 reoriented and try with that one to see if by any chance...?

Did you try reflashing with sim card out? Maybe a master clear would help too?

Yes the last time i tried with the simcard out. I'm guessing the phone is still unlocked, a master clear woudn't change this? If anyone can confirm this I'll try it asap.
I'm downloading as well Doc's rom 7.5 to try reflashing that instead, I can do that or I have to downgrade and then reflash?

How did you do it? I tried reinstalling without sim card and it did not work.

I had the same problem, so I reflashed to factory /w Odin and made sure to wipe cache and data, and it worked without a hitch.

I think the problem could be that your unlock code was deleted. When you flashed. If you can not use odin try this, find the jh7 ota update. I think you can get it from the cognition download page. Flash this it will bring you back to a 2. 1 Rom. Read up on how to unlock your phone. Unlock then copy the unlock code. Then flash cognition again and follow steps to unlock.
If you are on the newest cog make sure you disable the voodoo lagfix prior to flashing. I can not guarantee this will work but it is worth a go. If you created a nandroid prior to flashing once you are on jh7 you should be able to restore

Market screwed up completely (I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING!!)

So I was running Cyanogen for about a month w/o wipe then wiped and tried the new King 2.1 AOSP v1.5 rom....
My market doesn't show downloads (tab), no paid apps, and it breaks when it tries to get to the permissions screen to download an app.
I wiped and reflashed to Cyanogen after flashing the HTC recovery and the problem remains....help me!
EDIT/UPDATE:
I've reformatted and repartitioned my whole sdcard...and have reflashed roms (yes, multiple different roms), and still the Market is broken!!!!
I NEED ASSISTANCE!!!
Did you wipe your ext/x ? You might have to repartion your card again. If you already wiped Everything.
Yup I've wiped everything....I might just repartition. Easiest way would be by using gParted in the console?
more than likely there are some things lingering from your cyanogen build. you should try wiping everything again (wiping data a 2nd time after wiping ext) and repair your ext, and flash again. also try fixing uid permissions located under "other" on amon-ra 1.5.2 recovery
I never used Gpart but from what I've read and seen it is the easiest way. I use Paragon Partition some ppl have issues using it but it has always worked for me.

I repartitioned and STILL broken Market!!! WTF!?!?!
I tried installing fasttest today and after that the market has been screwy. It takes for ever to load the permissions screen and after an app is done installing it still shows as Installing... in market.
I wiped everything and went back to superD and its the same.
I can't even get to the permission screen!
I just tried a different rom and still the same problem...I'm seriously getting pissed lol
I NEED apps!
I had a similar problem to twice.
The market needs looooong to connect but it works if I wait about a minute. But after I use it a while and several reboots it works fine for me. Sounds strange - but that was my soloution in both cases.
Just look if you got the same problem.
If not, maybe you should try to get a log so we can see the errors....
I checked and mine seems to have fixed itself..
Mine fixed itself after reboots... yay!!!
i have the same problem,mine is not working 9 days,so i have transfered to1mobile market.it has all market app,but itreface is retarded.if you manage to fix the problem PLEASE PM me.there is allot of mine friends that heve the same problem,and it is weird that market stopped working,at approximately same time,and on tottaly diferent devices,android versions,and some of phones are not rooted at all.if you manage to fix yours please send me pm link

After booting aospCMod 2.3.2

So for the past two days I've been trying to flash the new AOSP Gingerbread ROM, but although I follow everything straight from the wiki it always seems to get stuck on the HTC screen after the last reboot. Help me please!
EDIT: So I somehow got the rom to boot last night using RA recovery but after loading up a notice says Setup Wizard not being able to respond...etc, etc. Also after booting my home, call, and search buttons don't work at all. not even for other roms. PLEASE HELP!
020211 So after following instructions from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11078749&postcount=4860 i was finally able to boot CM7 fully and without problems. If you're having problems with booting aosp's gingerbread rom just use this guy's instructions (at the bottom) and you should be good to go.
Make sure u install manually through clockworkmod mod first format boot system data and cache then install the rom let it boot then reboot and install gapps without wiping and reboot then you should be good I'm using the normal clockworkmod 2.5.2 and it works great
Sent from my HTC Hero CDMA using XDA App
okay thanks! ill try that and get back to you.
so no luck at booting. i'm still stuck at the HTC Boot screen.
i tried also and still no luck .. i hate this
to anybody having problems flashing GB, try these steps EXACTLY:
1) use clockwork 2.5.0.1 and follow the wipe/format process in the wiki
2) flash the rom then gapps
3) FLASH A CAPPED 691 KERNEL
This seems to be a continued issue, and I think it is because some phones can't handle high clock speeds like 768. The recovery currently posted by aosp (cwm 3.0.0.5) is overclocked and therefore will not boot, same with the kernel in the rom. Report back here if it works, I have already updated the wiki to advise people of this. Good Luck.
So i tried it again with the capped kernel and it still didn't work. also tried it without firerat's MOD but still a no go.
I'm upgrading aosp 2.3.2 rom from nightly build #188. Before flashing aosp rom plesae try to wipe everything like data, dalvik-cache, battery and rotate status. BTW, I'm using RA-Recovery not ClockworkMod.
i installed it after the standard wipes and thats it and its working just fine at 768 on my hero200. didnt have any issues and im loving the rom, but i am having one issue. this link is to my issue in q and a. if you can help feel free to hop on my thread and reply. other than that, i juast wanted to say this rom is great!

Well, I hate to say it but you must be missing a step somewhere. FYI in the OP for gingerbread the cwm3.0.0.5 is now capped at 691, so try that one again. Wipe both wipe options, go to mounts and format boot,system,data,cache, then gn into advanced wipe dalvik twice. Flash the rom,gapps,deca #43 capped 691 kernel, reboot. The first boot should take a while so be patient. Report back here if you can't get it, and I would recommend going into the live help room (aospbot IRC) which in the OP for GB. Good luck.
So still no luck. But I'm determined to somehow fix this no matter how many times I try!

I think you should back up your sd card and then format it in your pc. Then start all over. From the recovery on down. Skip any mods till you get booted up. Like keyboards and boot screens etc. And try the capped cwm recovery. Hope it helps good luck

Still no luck on booting aospCMod. Like they say no two heroes are the same. But that doesn't mean I'm still not going to try again and again and again (xinfinity).
got it to boot but...
so i somehow got it to boot using ra-recovery but right as i loads it says the setup wizard has unexpetedly stopped processing. any help?

Glad I could help man! Glad to see you got it worked out!
There's a readme in the Aosp 2.3.2 OP. It's right under the files, labeled README. I think it would help if anyone having trouble actually reads through this. skipping steps causes problems.
also, Factory reset skips over the /system partition. I recommend wiping /system partition if you're coming from another rom, or if you are decided to start fresh. You have to go into the partitions menu to actually format the /system partition.

This is true if you use CWM (which I do not ) but if you fastboot wipe all the partitions you will have no issues w/ RA as the OP discovered once he used the instructions that I posted.
touble with vvm
uh not quite sure if this is rite place to post this but looked better than the rest, so i got the rom running fine and it is wonderful improvement to my what use to be my wifes stock hero. Only problem is with the visual voice mail, i copied it from the stock hero before flashing, than after flashing copied it back, it works in the sense that i can see the voicemail in the app and even the voicemail to text works, but 2 things are wrong, 1 is i cant clear voicemail notification in the status bar without rebooting phone, and now she gets a text from a 9069 that tells her phone has recieved a voicemail, found a work around for the second one i blocked the number using blacklist so the text dont come thru nomore, but how i can i fix the fact that the only way to clear the voicemail notification is to reboot the phone? Any help, comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Or is there somewhere i can dl the latest sprint vvm app?? or are they device specific. Thank you in advance for any help

[Q] Phone is wigging out, need techsperts help.

Hi guys,
I have been searching the forums for 2 weeks now trying to fix this myself, but I have put my pride in my pocket and am asking for help.
Backstory: Rooted phone, flashed CWM, used tons of custom froyo ROM's (doc roms mainly) and most recently Darky's 9.3 (awesome).
But then i decided I wanted Gingerbread (this is where the trouble began). Gingerbread worked just fine, but as there is no custom roms, I flashed back to 2.2 (obviosly screwed something up), because since then I have been plagued with process com.whatever.android.somethingelse has stopped unexpectedly. please try again.
please don't ask which force close message I am getting, lets just say, I am pretty sure I am getting them all!
I have flashed stock 2.1, custom 2.1, stock 2.2, custom 2.2's, I even went back to gingerbread a few times trying to fix this ***** of a problem. I tried re partitioning just the .pit file and then the other 3 files seporatly. NOTHING WORKS.
So, I am calling out to all you guys and girls who are heaps smarter than me to please help. the phone functions, turns on, make or receive calls and texts (not mms), emails work sometimes, but if I turn the phone off and on all the settings are wiped and I need to reload all the user details.
Oh, I should also add another major issue, I cannot use the internal memory for anything, I cannot take pictures unless I select the external SD card, I cannot install apps from market or .apk. I cannot even move data to it when its mounted on the pc.
I am completely lost. please help me.
And thanks in advance.
I
C'mon guys, I know there is a lot to read, but please, can no-body help me?
Sounds like it might be a dead internal sd card. You said you tried a re-partition with 3 file firmware? That should fix pretty much anything. I think your only option is to return to samsung at this point.

Thanks for the response.
is it possible to fix myself?
As Samsung will not cover it, even if I flash the stock Telstra ROM, it will still show that it has been rooted?
In doing your research, I'm sure you've heard of the internal SD problems that plague the i9000, are you by chance with Bell Mobility? This line concerns me..
"Oh, I should also add another major issue, I cannot use the internal memory for anything"
When I experienced multiple FCs (force closes) and incompatible system UID's, I tried flashing every kind of ROM there was with every kind of PIT file as well to no avail. However, one in particular worked for me and others. It is usually referred to as a full ROM. It contains the .csc and .sbl in it as well as the usual ROM contents.
The ROM I used is called FULL-i9000UGJH2.tar. Note, flashing this ROM with a pit file (be it 512, 513, or 803) wouldn't help me at all. What fixed the problem was flashing ONLY the ROM file in ODIN. Unfortunately, I can't find the thread where I found this ROM. I suggest searching around for it, if you can't find it PM me, and I will up it somewhere for you.
I'm not sure if this will help with your specific case, but its worth a shot. Also, wherever applicable, do a factory reset, clear your cache, and a full wipe install.
Good luck.
[edit]
Do a complete wipe and install with a stock 2.2 or 2.1 ROM in ODIN, there will be no evidence of a root.

I am using odin, this is the wierd part. I have tried repartitioning, not repartitioning, I have tried 512.pt 803.pit, full wipe and reset from both in the phones settings and recovery mode. reboot it, go through settup wizzard (which eventually force closes requiring me to reboot), go into accounts and there is my google account still set up???
Edit: also, I cannot find a file called FULL-i9000UGJH2.tar, I am downloading i9000UGJH2.tar as we speak, but i doubt it is the one you were reffering to, if you are able to point in in the right direction, that would be ace.

If you're entering your gmail address in during the setup wizard, our google account will be linked. If you're not setting anything up and it is remembering your info, then something is definitely fishy.
I would flash back to a stock rom, and see what Samsung or your provider can do for you. In all honesty, the only thing I would be able to suggest is flashing and wiping
[edit]
When you download that ROM, open it up (using a program like WinRAR). The point of a full rom is that it contains
-cache.rfs
-dbdata.rfc
-factoryfs.rfs
-modem.bin
-param.lfs
-sbl.bin
-zimage
I'm unsure of any incompatibilities between the Canadian and Australian versions, but I will upload my copy for you to try.

I'm uploading for you to Rapidshare, where you can download as a free user...~30 mins . Again, I'm not sure if there are modem incompatibilities or not since this I am in Canada, and you are in Australia.

The way you're referring to accessing this internal SD....are you flashing your ROMs to an external microsd card?

No, by accessing my SD, i mean being able to download ansd install apps (and things like that). also, just tried to remove my google (gmail) account from my phone, and it wouldn't let me, it keeps force closing.

Hey mate, no go, i got some functionality back on the phone, but still force closes and I cannot save anything to SD (or install apps).
another email account (an exchange server account) that was previously deleted has appeared back set up and working (I have not been able to set this up for a week), it appeared on its own which leads me to think there is a hidden partition on my internal sd, hence I cannot access it. must be something to do with Gingerbread.
Thanks for all your help though.

Hey mate, no go, i got some functionality back on the phone, but still force closes and I cannot save anything to SD (or install apps).
another email account (an exchange server account) that was previously deleted has appeared back set up and working (I have not been able to set this up for a week), it appeared on its own which leads me to think there is a hidden partition on my internal sd, hence I cannot access it. must be something to do with Gingerbread.
Thanks for all your help though.

Edit: It just completely crashed again, force closes just about everything that is open, phone functionality is gone (phone icon vanished) as did contacts. freezes for a couple of minutes and then reboots. i may have to throw it at a wall!
I cannot find anything about the gingerbread partition that would cause problems with froyo. damn this thing!!!
Have you tried reformatting your internal SD

Hi mate,
I have tried that several times, i think there is a hidden partition thanks to Gingerbread.
I would be sure that your internal sd card is screwed but since everything worked fine before gingerbread something else has probably happened. Also your data wont delete and that seems to be the source of the problem. Try to install the lagfix from k13d and see if it had any results. This should reformat all partitions on the internal sd.

[Q] Freeze and crash problem!!! Always!!

Whether rom&kernel i've tried (darky, tweaky, hawkish, extraordinary roms, semaphore, darky, cf root kernels) my phone always freezes anytime, anywhere. When i open a game sometimes it freezes in the loading screen, sometimes doesn't freeze. Sometimes when writing sms, sometimes killing tasks, everytime and everytime! I'm tired of this problem and it started to make me so angry! Please help if you have any suggestion.
There are two other posts in this sections that sounds like the exact same problem. Have you read them? Should be within the first 2 pages...
Edit: Ok just re-read, its similar, but still see if there are any solutions there that you haven't tried
Also are you restoring backups? If you don't restore them, does it still happen? Have you tried stock? Have you repartitioned? Have you cleared cache, dalvik cache. Factory reset after rom update? Turned lagfix off when flashing? Used odin to flash....

Thanks for your answer. Yes not at all but i've tried and read the other posts but they don't look like my problem but i exactly want to know what's causing this and suggestions, it makes me think if i have a hardware problem maybe, or what may be causing this and want to solve that problem forever, if it goes on i'll change my loved phone cause of this
Yes, i'm restoring backups using titanium backup, but without installing backups, it's the same, freezes, i didn't try stock and i don't wanna try i didn't repartiton, i cleared every kind of caches, factory resetted after update, turned off lagfix, didn't try odin

Well then from those answers i think its obvious what im going to suggest
Try an odin install Darkyrom 10.2RE people say always works.. and is reliable. Ive used it myself. And I suggest repartition. This is because it gives you the freshest install like it is brand new. If it happens then as well, then you need to flash stock, again with repartition via odin, for the same reason and because you need to identify the problem. If you have problem with stock then it is most likely a hardware issue.
In terms of backup, do not do batch backups as this sometimes causes conflicts, instead select each app you want and pick backup, then restore only data. Market apps you have downloaded can be logged using "app list" from the market. Use this to pick which apps you want to restore and it will take you straight to them, obviously after you download that app from the market again.
Also backup you internal sd card on you computer (drag and drop) and then restore only what is needed. Titanium backup should be kept on exsd in my opinion, and you can move the default folder there via settings.
Darky10.2RE You only need to do the odin install the second install is if you want all the apps, but again this can be configured using the darkyrom app, if you miss anything go to the last tab in the app after flashing and it will be there for you to pick out.
Things that can are unlikely to be an issue- is your imei the same? Do you have the correct csc code?

So much thanks for your answers and suggestions, but i don't want to use darkyrom i want to use s2 ported roms what should i do
Find them, under android development, its one of the pinned threads...2.3.4 roms or something. This is to identify the issue but as you wish, if you still have problems then maybe try darky then, or go to stock..

[Q] HELPPP Accidental internal storage wipe

ok, so i was trying to root my sprint htc one, and everything was going, ok. i unlocked the bootloader simple enough. then i wanted to back up the data, before i tried putting roms on it. well twrp kept saying i only had about 34 mb of space which made no sense since i had formatted it, and only brought back things like contacts and texts. when i checked my phone it said that i had 24gbs. so i couldnt find an answer to this anywhere so while looking through twrp i saw the wipe function. not having seen anything about it, i said, maybe if i reformat it again, itl clear up. so i hit wipe all. well after it was done it only said i had 1.2 gbs, so still confused i went to load my normal os, well i cant. because wiping everything meant the system data the os is on. i spend hours trying to find a fix, as im only able to go between the bootloader and twrp, and i see a sideload option, and after following the steps, i attempt to sideload. everything is going well. Viper looks like its about to install, until at the last second it says install fail. but now i cant even access the recovery menu. literally stuck in the boot loader option. all my contacts and pictures and stuff are backed up, so i have no problem formatting my phone to scratch if it means fixing this, but can anyone point me in the right direction???? i cant find anything on this, ive been searching through this site, and some people with similar issues solve it by sheer luck, but i have no rom back up(since i was trying to do that when i got into this problem) please please help!!!
**edit** i was able to get into twrp by using the recovery steps, though im just back to square 1. is there a guarenteed reliable sideloader that can work?
Look HERE
Try the latest RUU first if it does not work follow the guide from the beginning it will get you fixed up.

Do you still have the memory issue? If so, try running a RUU, and see if that fixes your problem.
If not, just use adb sideload to sideload a ROM. Then wipe everything except internal storage and install the ROM normally.
EDIT: Looks like @BD619 ninja'd me XD
BTW sideload very rarely works when you wipe your sdcard.

hey thanks for the reply. i followed the guide and after some effort, everything seemed good, but when i was trying to load 5.03 sense 6 rom, i got to the htc start up, then it defaulted back to the bootloader..i went with the deodex version of the download, should i try the odex? or a different version all together?
and now it doesnt want to boot into recovery mode either! going to try redoing the steps, but i just cant figure out what the problem is
**edit* i cant fix twrp. the title loads, but thats it. endless loop
ok i got it to seemingly work. restoring content now. sat in fron of my pc for 15 hours...not even sure where imat or if i got any closer to rooting..smh..thank you everyone who helped. if anyone comes across this
to get out of the endless cycle of recover/loading screen.. delete your twrp, or whatevs your using. even if you have the latest, just redownload it. worked for me. i guess there is a huge difference between the odex and the deodex.i had figured deodex was a more refined version, but maybe it had more complicated software. in any case, if you are at a point where you dont have a base os, and you make it this far, go with odex, it worked for me. htc is big on back up, so i was more worried about having to scrap my phone then i was regaining data, especially with most of my stuff backed up to google drive. hopefully you guys are careful.
now...about this backup issue i had in the first place. how can i fix the storage issue? i have a 32 gb phone minus partition leaves me with over 24gb..why is it going based off the separate phonememory slot? why cant i change it?
