Hi
I tried to upgrade to Froyo, that part went well..
But: After boot the screen is visible until I either press power or phone goes into "sleep"
Then next time I try to wake the phone up (via power or meny buttom) the screen will not turn on, I can see that the phone is awake because the two buttons lit up, and I can swipe the screen to unlock, but screen is still black.
If I reset the phone the screen starts again until next sleep or pressing power button.
One more thing, I cannot set the light level any longer.
If I go back to Eclair the screen works ok again, and light level (both manual and automatic)?!
I have now tried almost every how-to about flashing firmware, but not luck yet.
I tried to search for similar problems, and found similar but no good answer.
What shall I do?
Post in Q& A next time .
How did you upgrade and what firmware you used .

I have tried several, but last time (today) I used following, via Odin, I9000XXJPY from samfirmware.com
And thanks, I will post Questions in Q&A next time, sorry.

I will try it again and see if works this time (if I missed something first)

Okay so I've had my tilt for 2 days. I unlocked the phone and installed the HTC ROM from sticky. The problem is this, sometimes if I leave the phone by itself for a couple minutes and I go to it to use it, it is in "sleep" mode. The service light still blinks at the top, but it doesn't matter what button I press that it won't turn on. The only way to get it to turn on is to take off the battery and put it back together. This is starting to get frustrating. Any ideas?
Try pressing the power button on the side
flash it to a diffrent rom, thats probably the easiest solution.
I would try the power button to no avail. I really like the HTC ROM that I have....but changing roms shouldn't be the answer though, it has to be fixed, its just gotta
I'm running the stock AT&T rom and I've had this problem happen maybe three times. I've had the phone about 3 to 4 weeks.
Sleep of Death...
Try to check if you are usinf RNDIS or not. If not, change the option to use it.... (see USB to PC option)
Hi
I have just tried to update to 2.2, i updated Kies first, connected my phone, it came back saying update available, fully charged battery, all seemed to go ok, phone rebooted, but when coming back up I get the logo, and the start up music, then it vibrates a bit the keys on bottom left and right are lit up, screen black and doesn't seem to do anything.
I have removed battery, have tried 3 button restore (no effect) it just keeps vibrating every min or so.
holding the power button restarts it, thats about all i can get it to do.
Have I ruined the phone?? please help.

First question... Did you have a lagfix on the phone before you tried to update it?
Second question... If you answered yes to question one... Did you remove / disable the lagfix before you flashed through Kies?
i had lag fix and was rooted, i plugged it in to laptop and it was recognised and said update 2.2 available, so i thought that was ok.
Now it is as i describe as above, i get battery logo if i plug into laptop, bottom left and right keys are lit but don't do anything, screen is black and vibrates every couple of minutes, if i hold power button get the GT galaxy s screen then the music, then the S galaxys screen which goes black with the two keys lit, if i press power button again it goes off and to the battery logo again.
Cannot get odin or kies to recognise phone plugged in, or get it into recovery or download mode

you didn't answer the question but I will assume that you were using a lagfix but did not disable it before you tried to update you phone.
try removing the battery for a few minutes and try going to download mode (hold vol down + home + power)
Go into recovery mode (vol up + home + power 'till screen switches on) and select the delete data/cache (?) option with the volume keys, using the middle button to confirm. Your phone will work, but unfortunately, you'll loose all your app/settings =/
Should have un-lagfixed before updating :-s
let us know if Rawat's way worked for you.
I had disabled my lagfix too when updating to doc jk3 using cwm and same thing happened to me.
Only way i fixed it was to flash my phone's stock rom, jh2 2.1 using odin3 v1.3 and the firmware from samfirmware. (pda only, no pit, no repartition)
then i upgraded to froyo again and it worked.
I had just installed the latest ics fw on my note previously running gingerbread and never had a problem. After i downloaded the 316mb update( approx size, don't remember the actual size) and installed it the phone was on the packet installation screen with a bar on the bottom. The bar filled up in half an hour and i kept waiting for another hour but nothing happened. After that i shut down my phone and restarted it again. It showed up the galaxy note n-7000 screen and then the android bot with diamond on the screen for a couple of seconds and then the screen turned black. Then i took out the battery and tried to restart the phone again but to no avail. All it shows is the galaxy note screen and then a black screen. I have never modded my phone and it was absolutely stock. What is wrong with this phone, and any chance i could fix it up myself rather than going to the service center because i am out of city for a month and need my phone for work real bad. Thanks in advance for any help provided.
PS : Tried the home button + volume down button and power button trick that does bring me to a caution screen of installing custom OS.
PSS : And now when i start up the phone with charger plugged in it just keep displaying the battery on the screen.

how u are using three button technique. first press volume up then home button and then power button all one by one as mentioned in the same order then just hold three till u reach boot menu.
^
Tried it again thrice again exactly in the same order you asked to but same thing happens. The galaxy note n-7000 screen flashes twice and then the android bot with blue ball/diamond for couple of seconds and the screen goes blank.
Though i can access the download menu by pressing volume down + home button + power button
try instal new rom using odin and download menu.....have u tried the same by removing battery also.
What Rom where you on before this problem happened? Were you rooted?
Best to follow this to the letter
Go into download mode.
Pc odin stock rom from www.sammobile.com for your countries phone with pit file for your phone.
Exact way is in dr Ketans thread in sticky section of development.
Do not do factory reset or wipe data on ICS period

had something odd happen to my phone on the weekend. I pressed the power button (to wake it up) so I could quickly see the time and temp and I put it down, came back to it 3 hours later and the screen was still on.... (on the locked screen)
I unlocked it and locked it again and it wouldn't turn off the screen without me hitting the power button to do it
This happened last night as well and I noticed that it dimed the screen and stayed on when sometimes I see it dim then turn off a second later. Rebooting it makes it go back to the usual turning off after 10 or so seconds
I posted this on the aussie Whirlpool forms and someone else has said they have seen the same thing happen
sorry should have put in that I am on the 4.2.2 update on the Australian unbranded handset

Try going to Settings -> Display -> Sleep and then selecting your preference, that solved it for me. It seems that sometimes this setting doesnt get recognized, so you have to select it again.
Hi to all the xda members this is my first post here :laugh:
About a month ago i decided to fix the screen (black screen no image) of my S3 mini, so i buught a replacement on ebay. after a few days and some youtube videos i change the screen and the protector glass and the phone was working again then i take the phone and install it the CWM recovery because a read that is a good tool to have on a android phone, after a few days of use (no hits no water no fallen) the color of the phone was incredibly oversaturated and too much bright but to be honest i keep using it like that. few more days later the screen suddenly turn green.
The phone boots normal you can hear the noise and even answer a call if you know where to touch So i think in trying to wipe the cache using the CWM (entering using the volume up + home + power method) calculating how many times to touch the volume down button and the power button to get it done, btw it's 3 time volume down 1 power button 7 more times volume down and 1 another power button. But when i touch the first time the power button the phone just boot up normally so i put more attention and when it turn on using without releasing the 3 button the phone makes a little vibration but after a few seconds there is no second vibration.
In this point and just out of ideas, i don't have warranty for the phone here in my country, so i think the big question here is should i buy a new screen or is another kind of problem???
P.S: sorry for the long post and my bad english
no ideas with the problem???
i little update with my problem:
after reading a lot looking for a solution (or at least understand the problem) i try to install a custom rom using odin but still nothing change, after that i use the aokp rom from maclaw page and still nothing, so i say to myself you should try using the kies, so i give it a chance to the kies but it fails so i went back to install a stock rom using odin and after the reboot the phone screen shows a boot logo (a X with the sames color that the windows) so there it was the screen working like it should. after like 15 min the logo was still there so i remove the battery and try to enter to the recovery to make a wipe, after pressing the 3 combinations button shows up the first logo in white letters but after that the same screen problem from the begining showing just artifacts.
after all that i try to flash everything back to stock and make a repartition (using a pit file that i found here on xda) but this time using heimdall instead of odin and still no change.
at this point i am out of ideas, i would listen to any recomendation no matter how crazy it sound just want my phone back to work
it is possible to make a "nand erase all" to the phone using odin and after make a repartition flash stock files using heimdall???
will the phone be able to boot into download mode after a nand erase???
