[Q] Question after phone factory reset.. - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Yesterday, my problem is:
Please help everyone, I messed up with my phone..
I installed SGStools yesterday and just click on TouchwizUI GTG and it went all ok....
About the installation of GTG Touchwiz, I think there is an phrase saying "first, install ..... e.g. launcherpro" which I didn't do. But after that it went ok.
THen this morning, I started to notice that evrything i press the middle button once, it will vibrate and an error will popup, and I need to click it again to relaunch the homescreen..
After that, I went to SGStools again and tried to restore my backup, but the backup wasnt there, so I try to reinstall the Touchwiz GTG then afterwards restart the phone, after which, the homescreen is gone but I can still use the notifications and answer calls and text.
Please help me, I'm on stock ROMs and all things that I installed in my SGS is OCLF and Root and this one. Please help me!!
I'm using stock ROM, and just Root, OCLF and SGSTools.
Can I use HARD RESET instead to restrore my phone again despite my problem stated above?
I Havent flashed anything yet, and It's ok to loose files for me. Tnx In Advance Pls Reply

I was able to make a workaround by installing LauncherPro by sending a text message on my phone, including website to Android Market, and then it went ok, LauncherPro is installed, then I tried to reinstall SGSTools Faster TWGTG then uninstall LauncherPro. Afterwhich I Factory Reset my phone, cause I want to start all over again.
Question is: Since before I reset it, I already rooted/SuperUser/OCLF/SGSTools on it, Do I need to redo all of them again?
I Noticed that there is an icon of SuperUser I guess, maybe, it is still there..
Thanks in Advance!

Anyone Please?

Anyone know how to do this?

okay now my phone is ok

Irritating Market issue

I received my phone back a few days ago and I instantly flashed Cyan 5.0.6 test 3.
However I have a really annoying issue where my Market isn't quite 'correct'.
It seems to be missing the 'top paid' tab.
It also takes an age to load the info for any app I click on and the status stays at 'installing' even though it is installed and it will only refresh when I reboot.
I have tried to restore the backed up propriety apps, nandroid backup and restore, flashed a stock rom, flashed cyan 5.0.1
But NOTHING works.
I know the slow market is related to the missing tab, it's like half of the market app hasn't loaded properly.
I had this issue before my phone went off for repair and one day it fixed (I don't know how) but as soon as it did, it performed as it should and it took seconds to load app data and install, it also stated the app was installed.
I suppose what I'm looking for is HOW can I completely reload the Market from scratch?
Thanks guys.

Wow that is so weird... I assume you do wipe/cache/dalvik before flashing a ROM right? Have you tried cyan 5.0.6 yet? If not, give it a try, do the wipe before flash of course, and hope that works... Also, do you have a backup app? like titanium back up or back up pro? Did you set it to auto restore perhaps? Probably just a bad market back up? Thats all I can think about... If it doesnt work, then its beyond me brother

Hi Man,
I know it's really bugging me.
I've tried everything including wiping the Dalvik and normal cache.
I think I might try Enomer's ROM to see if that solves it but I can only tether at the moment as we've moved house and I won't have BB back for 2 weeks.
I have Titanium pro installed as I have over 400 apps on my phone!
Hey bro,
Apparently there have been a few reports about the same issue with the market, probably has something to do with the market update. Anyway, try uninstalling the market via titanium if you can that is. And reinstall. Nandroid before doing it.

Market issue with aospCM7

first off, I've seen fixes for this (I think) but I don't understand what they are saying to do...and whether or not it is a fix for my problem. Been working on this for a couple of hours now and no mas.
So, I have the latest versions of aospCM7, gapps, and clockwork. ( at least I think I do, I dled them all tonight.)
I followed the instructions at the aospcm7 wiki from stock.
The rom runs seemingly fine until I go into the market and try to dl an app (specifically either titanium back up pro or rom manager). Then it will dl and say it has successfully installed then app and immediately force closes. The app does not show up in the drawer, and the force close message pops up randomly afterwards. I have tried a simple reboot, alltheway down to reflashing the rom w/ gapps twice now and trying to reflash gapps alone. As well as re dling the file and replacing the gapps file and reflashing it.
If anyone knows of a solution to this and can explain to me how to execute said solution it would be very appreciated. Btw, this is my first root/ rom so I'm still a super noob Be gentle? lol
EDIT: And now that I tried reflashing them together one more time I'm stuck in a bootloop....
EDIT2: Am now restored back to stock thanks to nandroid back up. thank god. Anyways, I'd still like to figure ou the issue and give it another go ,so if anyone can shed some light, please do.
You using Firerat?
The fixes never worked for me. A few downloads then I had to apply the fixes again and reboot.

I feel ya. What I had to do was recovery, fr recovery, install ROM, fr boot, load the ROM, use the terminal fix, recovery, gapps, fr boot, boot the ROM and skip the automatic search that Google tries to do.
Then virtually the same mess of events to nand restore after a prl update for mms. Too much bs...
Try deleting the market updater apk.
Yea Its Me Again With the
Modified Hero
Thanks for all of the replies guys. I restored back to stock and reflashed the rom this morning and re downloaded and flashed gapps. Everything seems to be running just fine.
Now if I can just figure out how to use htc sync to get my contacts back it'd all be gravy lol.

I suppose I could/ should have done that...How exactly would I go about doing that?
Edit: ok I did that, but I'm missing numbers for a vast majority of them...
Ninja edit, nvrmind. Thanks for the help!
When you have your contacts all setup and you're logged into your Google account, just go to Settings > Accounts & Sync > your Google Account > tap Contacts.
Thanks man, I've got it all sorted now.

help my phone cannot download apps from the market anymore

I am on continuum v6 rc1 now but this problem has been persistent on serendipity and apex 7.1. I am on wifi and whenever I download an app from the market, it stays on the downloading bar and never downloads. I know that the connection is not the issue as I have been using it for other internet related things on the phone. I have flashed back to stock jf6 and master cleared before applying the latest continuum and the problem remains. I have also tried removing the market update, clearing cache, and rebooting. Nothing has fixed the issue, and upon rebooting, the apps that are attempting to download still appear in the notification tray without any success.
Please help...
Will they download on jf6?
did you g to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market>clear data?
also sometimes the market is just stubborn try one at a time and when it stalls like that click on it and select to download again. sometimes takes 3 or 4 tries before it acually downloads
I was able to download apps from the market on stock jf6. But now I am on cyanogenmod7 nightly 40 and I am still unable to download apps. This is very frustrating because I do not want to stay on jf6 just so I can use the market. What else should I try?

Sorry I forgot to tell you I already tried that.
Does anyone else have any suggestions. I feel like I've tried everything and still no luck.
This happened to me, sorry to tell you but.. you have to do a factory reset. Get titanium backup and backup everything important to you.
If you find sgs tools its an app trying putting this app on your phone by downloading it on a computer as an apk and put it on your sd card and install it then there is a spot that says run script find the market this will unistall market and reinstall it this could work

I tried both of your suggestion and neither worked. For a factory reset, I retrurned to stock and master cleared. While on atock the market was working. But now that I have flashed a gingerbread rom it does not work. I tried going into settings and doing a factory reset from the privacy screen. This simply earased the data on my sd leavng the apps on my phone. And the issue remains. I also tried using sgs tools to uninstall and reinstall the market and again no luck.

[Q] Sprint galaxy tab SPH-P100 resets on reboot

Hi Guys,
I have a strange problem with my galaxy tab. I bought it from ebay.
The guy from whom i bought it seems to have installed z4mod. Which ever application I tap force closes and a very few applications work like settings, music, browser. Any new app i install ends up force closing.
The strange thing is that whatever app i install vanishes on reboot. It is not a factory reset though, the apps installed by the previous guy will still be there. Factory reset doesn't work either.
I have tried using super one click and it hangs. Odin doesn't detect the tab in recovery mode.
andriod version is 2.3.4.
Any help is welcome..
Cheers.
I just started a thread about some issues my Tab is having too. Same model too.
I'm also getting resets on reboot. I'm going to hit sprint tonight on the way home, this ones not rooted. I'll let you know what I figure out with this one. Might help, might not.
I tried to factory reset the thing with Samsungs own app, didnt work, made the FC's worse.

Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone found a solution yet.
I just bought a refurbished Samsung Galaxy Tab P100 from ebay. Every time I reboot, it resets the Tab and is as if I never entered my Google account credentials. It also erases any apps I've downloaded and deletes wifi settings.
A factory reset did not help.
The screen where you do the factory reset says:
Android system recovery <3e>
Samsung Recovery Utils
- for BML -
Does anyone know if this is the original or rooted?
I hope someone has a solution because I want it keep it!
Thanks!

That's stock Samsung recovery
If a factory reset doesn't fix the issue, then the device likely has a defective internal storage chip. Return it.

"DITTO" for which problem?
for the problem on the OP, I think the problem above has to do with conflicting google account settings from the old owner to the new one.
If this is true,
Factory reset, and enter new google account on the tab. start google play, let it update itself and download an app to test. it with.
This should fix force closes. DO NOT use any google settings from titanium backup.

[Q] ICS Onecosmic 4.0.3 RC1 -- Messaging Errors

Hey all.
First things first, absolutely loving ICS on the SGS. Never looking back after spending time on this OS.
Only thing that's troubling me is the messaging app. Frequently struggling to send out and receive sms messages, as they seem to be delayed up to 5 minutes at a time. Tried flashing JVT, JVQ and now JVK, with none fixing the solution.
I'm also suffering from constant 'Unfortunately Messaging has stopped working' errors, requiring a reboot of the phone.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

am not facing any such problem..
though you can try clearing messaging data ... or ...reflashing the rom.. and if that doesn't work then some other messaging app like GO SMS or Handscent SMS..
use other massage applications

Tried to clear message data a few times, no change.
If i make a nandroid backup, then reflash the rom and restore, will everything go back exactly as it was?
Could it have anything to do with location / modems?

I don't think restoring from a nandroid backup will help as it brings back the same state as your phone is now in..
I would suggest using titanium backup pro for backing up apps and data and use 'sms backup and restore' or some other app to backup messages.. this way you'll get a clean install...
Don't forget to wipe/factory reset before flashing again..
I don't think it has to do anything with modem/ location..

Yeah i didnt think so.
Alrighty then, when i get a chance to do a clean install i'll try it out.
It's so weird, because my girlfriend has the exact same phone (sgs i9000 with onecosmis 4.0.3) on the same provider, who lives just up the road from me and is having the exact same problems!
Did this get a solution? I am having the exact same problem - "Unfortunately messaging has stopped." but I also get another kind of error - can't hear or be heard during some calls until reboot.
I'm getting this on different ICS roms too :/
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am also getting same issue on ICS (cm9).
Other apps like Adobe Reader, Kingsoft office, file manager are not giving this error.
Camera, clock, settings are showing same error "Unfortunately <the app> has stopped"
any help?
