When everything is fine screen goes black and doesnt boot up after samsung logo? I am having this issue every month and I am so sick of it.
All of a sudden, when my phone works fine the screen goes black and that's it there is no way to fix it unless you format it with 3 button combo.
I am so sick of this happening and loosing everything almost every 3 weeks. I don't have any lag fix, no root nothing.just jh2 from Bell Canada.
At first I thought it happened because of too many apps, maybe they caused a system failure. Then I tried to install almost nothing except 4 apps bit after few weeks it happened again. What might be the problem guys? It seems like file system error or software error cuz when I plug it to pc it sees my ext sd card but doesnt see internal.
Does anyone have the same problem?
Sounds like the internal SD problem people have been having with the i9000m, do a search on here, there's a thread.

Hi guys,
Just wanted to see if anyone else had this issue. I installed SGS Tools to check my product id and a couple other things, and i had some issues with it. First after installing it, my internal SD card wouldnt mount, unless i rebooted and tried again. Then sometimes it would just leave it unmounted after i disconnected the USB cable. I also noticed some heavy battery drain while this app was installed.
Did anyone else experience this? Or was this just some freak thing that shouldnt happen?
Im on Cog2.3b8.
Thanks.

Never noticed any battery drain due to the program. Have never seen it running or starting without me opening it.
RE: The mounting issue.....i would suggest it has absolutely nothing to do with the SGS Tools program. The more likely culprit is something that occurred during your flash process. The only time i have had mounting issues was after a bad flash.
None of that has ever happened with my SGS Tools; was running stock 2.1 up until recently with the Rogers 2.2. Maybe it'll happen now?
This is just strange. Ive been running cog for almost 2 weeks with 0 issues until I installed this. And once removed the issues seem.to be gone. I'm baffled.

Strange. SGS tools is one of the basic apps I install whenever I flash a new ROM. Never noticed this drain.
When I first got my 2x I had no problems with a dismounting SD card. But recently it has started to happen and generally when the phone reboots on its own and such. When it then comes back online it has dumped the External SD card and I am either forced to peel off the cover and then disconnect and reconnect the card.
Or simply reboot manually and go from there. Either of the 2 methods remounts the card, but I am simply at a loss as to what causes the phone to dump it the first time around.
Anyone got any ideas or tips on this?
Tried with different cards?
I have not experienced this whatsoever. I'm using Transcend 8 GB class 6.
I don't really have a huge choice of cards considering the one I am using is a 16 gig one . And it worked juts fine in the HTC Desire I had before the LG.
And it worked fine in the beginning, with the LG. The phone only started being a bit retarded about it a week or 2 ago >_<
I've had the exact same problem. No idea when/why it happens :<
Same here...
And same here, started a couple of days ago.
I would try to format the card with SD Formatter from Panasonic. Do a Google search. I works real good.
I notice this problem only happens to me if I restart the phone using an app (or via clockwork). I have resigned myself to no longer restarting but to instead, shutdown the phone and manually powering it on again..

Please add your support to the thread over at MoDaCo about Paul's reboot app then...
Same happened to me last night. I've had my Optimus 2X for 5 weeks now, never had any spontaneous reboots, it was quite stable actually. Last night I mounted an 8 GB Kensington external SD for the first time on this phone, with some music and videos on it. After booting up, everything worked perfectly. Then, I went listening to songs via YouTube. All of a sudden, nothing but a very loud humming, which continued after I removed and put back the earphone plug. And then, the phone rebooted by itself, for the first time. After it had rebooted, the external SD was still visible using AndroZip, but it was empty! I was pissed off and went to sleep. Just now, I shut off the phone and started it again, and the external SD is back, with all the stuff I put on it last night. So this incident kind of freaked me out. I mean, the 2X isn't what you call a low-end, cheap phone, is it?
same problem here
Did this happen to anyone on stock rom or could the issue be related to a custom rom?
I have been using a class 6 16GB sdcard (unbranded from a reliable seller @ ebay) for about 2 weeks and did not encounter such error, but I am still on stock rom.

Didnt have it on stock, so it could be a custom rom problem, though i had it on fr17 and cm7 and everything based on that. Seeing as fr 17, if im correct, uses stock as a base it should be possible to happen on stock aswell. Someone correct me if im wrong though

sometimes i also have the mount problem, also in recovery ...
a reboot helps in most cases, sometime it needs 2 ...
i also notified that software reboot to recovery (with an app, o2x reboot) causes mounting problems of sd card more often than rebooting with magic keys ...
but it´s not happening regularly, so i can live with that ...
i had it twice on stock, but in a month's time, so it isn't so frequent fortunately
I have the problem on stock rom and if I do a restart... The phone gets hot where the sd card is once loaded back up. Its shows as Unavailable in SD & Phone Storage and have to then just switch the phone off/on and it shows up again. Strange!.
It must be something to do with a soft reset!....
has anyone figured out a solution to this problem yet?
I was about to start a new thread on this prob,luckily i saw this 1st. I also face this prob. My class4 16gb sd card sometimes become unavailable without any notice. Any solutions?

Hi every one this is my first post and was wondering if anyone has had this problem come up.
My wife has the I9000 and a couple months ago it started to show this problem of everytime the phone is in standby the screen keeps coming on or about a second or to then goes off for about a second the then on and it will keep doing this till it runs the battery down.
I have tried to do a complete ROM install fresh and factory resets and custom roms and the phone still keeps doing it. is there anything i can do or is the phone beyond fixing unless i take it apart??
Thanks
Andy
Hi,
This sometimes happens to me also. Reflashing does not seem to help.
The one thing that seemed to do any difference was to turn off the device, remove battery, sim card and SD card. Then plug them all back in and start the phone.
This sometimes worked or at least minimized the number of problems, but not a permanent solution.
Although your problem could be something completelly diferent.
No arm in trying this suggestion
Hi thanks for the reply.
I havd tried that. Atp the moment it has no sc card or sim card as she got a galaxy mini to use for moment and it still dose the same thing.
It is quite anoying as ya have to have it plugged into charge all time as batt drains really quickly.

One possibility is a hardware problem. Maybe one of your phone's buttons (home, power, or volume) is grounded and keep on contacting.
Another possibility is a program that is running automatically. If you're on ICS or JB, you can check your running apps in Settings/Apps/Running and see if there is a running app that can be stopped without affecting the system...
Just a suggestion.
is there a known solution for the "screen-turning-on-problem"?
friend of me has the same problem with non-rooted galaxy s+
The phone is on stock gb fresh install.
Might have to try and open it and see if anything wrong.

Hi all,
Have been flashing roms for a while now, using slim bean in wife's i9000 and I have just changed over from ADC team 10.1 to unofficial liquid smooth on my i9001. Flashed a lot of roms on my i9001, often just due to small lags or glitches. Maybe the number of flashes could be part of my problem so here goes.
Quite often and randomly, so different ROMs etc, internal SD card becomes unmounted and I don't know how to fix but I think I usually just reflash. Sometimes whole apps will disappear too, ironically xda always seems to be the one and it occurred to me this morning could the missing apps be due to the unmounted sdcard, as in apps installing to SD card go missing?
So questions:
Why does SD card unmount?
Are apps disappearing related?
Can I fix without flash?
Is this a prelude to SD card failure due to too many flashes?
Thanks all, need to use up data quota by tomorrow so going to update ROM thought I should pose questions first as will have an impact on what to do next.
Eagerly awaiting your expert responses.

Just to update all, switched phone off to swap to my wife's full battery and phone was off a few minutes. Switched phone OK and SD card is back, since I wrote the first post has happened a couple if times, a reboot doesn't clear out but leaving the phone off for a minute or two with the battery pulled seems to fix it. Also does seem to be the missing apps is related to sdcard.
Should I worry about hardware failure?
Still awaiting any responses!
