I upgraded from firmware via kies but failed. i flashed my fone using odin and my fone came back to life. gps was working until i rooted using super one click. now my gps is not locating. it says not available. pls can anyone help me? i always use my gps and i find really very helpful. thanks
It seems like it's the best when you make a factory reset and install new firmware again...
But maybe you can try to clear dalvik cache first.
And if later the signal is bad try "GPS aids"

Is it possible to downgrade from 2.2 to 2.1? I upgraded to 2.2 yesterday and now the phone is very sluggish. In 2.1 Launcher Pro was smooth as a baby's bottom and now it's not.
After the upgrade I did a factory reset, which I've read would solve a lot of problems.
Same problem
I am looking for the same solution.
Since I upgraded my galaxy s to 2.2 using odin3 I've got a lot of problems on the phone now. The Swype doesn't work Internet keeps crashing and the operating system crashes too. Google voice speak is also not working.
I've heard the only option is to re flash it but I don't know how to reflash or downgrade it to 2.1
Please let us know. My basement got changed to jp1 after Odin3
Most problem is old settings from 2.1.
The easiest way is to do a factory reset. Wipe the catch and format the internal sdcard.
If that works you can put back your app. Don't restor any old settings.
The other way is to make sure the phone is clean and flash latest firmware with odin.

I have a Galaxy S currently on Gingerbread 2.3.4, a Samsung ROM that I found on a forum, loaded with Odin.
It's version: I9000XXJVP
Kernel; 2.6.35.7-I9000XXJVP-CL264642 [email protected] #2
Build: GINGERBREAD.XXJVP
I usually load many software and games on my phones, and the suspect is that is always something of these that bring problems, not the Operating System Itself. Maybe some software in nor written very well.
So the problem is that the phone sometimes "die" during the day.
I took it out of my pocket, it should be in standby, but when I press the home button or the on/off button on the side, nothing happens, it remains black.
The only way to have it working again is take the battery out and restart.
It is not a "low battery" problem, and it seems not to be related to some specific software that I use or have used during the day. This lock don't happen every day, and sometime happens even if I have not used any software (just Gmail, phone, or other "stock" functions)
I had other problems with this Firmware, sometime loosing memory or becoming slow, and a good solution I found was to schedule a complete restart every morning at 6:00. I still have this reset running, and it seems a good thing. But even this cannot be related with this "lock" problem.
What do you think ?
Thank you
Ser
I'd reflash the rom again bud to see if it is a firmware issue

Try flashing latest version of gingerbread XXJVR.The firmware that ur using has this bug and even when i was using XXJVP,i use to get this problem.So get the XXJVR firmware from ramad thread and flash it
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Thanks Androiderrr.
Please give me a link to this "Ramad thread" where I can get the JVR.
I think I should load with Odin ?
Another question, if you can help:
when I change firmware it seems to me that the (5,7 Gb) internal memory is not cleaned, right ? I always find pieces of soft installed in previous rom....
Which is the best way to "start clean" when upgrading firmware?
Thanks !
Ok iam providing you link.Download stock XXJVR.When u will unzip it,you will find 3 files(PDA,PHONE,CSC).Now while flashing throug odin just replace CSC file of XXJVR with any CSC file of other gingerbread ROM.Like you can use CSC file of XXJVP.It is beacuse XXJVR was released for swisscom oprator and if u will use CSC file of original XXJVR then you will get custom swisscom boot animatiln

Now comming to ur question of fresh flashing.All you can do is take following steps
1)First backup ur apps.Use my backup(root) from market.If ur not rooted then use my backup(it comes with 30days trail and donot require root permission).Also backup ur music,videos and important files from internal memory to pc
2)Now take out ur sim card and external sd card.
3)Now hard reset ur phone by dialing *2767*3855#
3)After this reboot into revovery(switch off ur phone and press volume up+home key+power switch).Now do factory reset and clear dalvic cache.Reboot
4)Now flash ROM using Odin.Remember when ur using 3 files to flash like (pda,phone and csc) then always use .pit files(512)
5)After flashing again,reboot into recovery and do factory reset and clear dalvic cache
Enjoy

And before inserting external sd card,check for virus.

I upgraded from icssgs 3 to 4.2 abd ever since i get no reception at all. No data, no calls no nothing. Wifi works though.
I have tried since and flashing several different roms and the problem persists. Has anyone had this problem before or does anyone have a possible solution?

Have you tried factory reset, cache wipe, advanced and dalvik cache wipe, and then re-flashing rom? Are you using teamhacksung build 16?
risking to sound stupid, by " No data, no calls no nothing" you mean "no signal"?
if you've tried the solution suggested by am2012, have you tried installing a different modem?
try flashing a modem...u can get one from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158783&highlight=bootloaders
I have tried wiping and reflashing. I have also tried flashing different roms with different modems.
I reflashed the last rom that worked but the problem persisted.
I have had thoughts of flashing a rom with odin instead of cwm but i dont know if it should make a difference?
Thanx for the replys btw, all help is very appreciated.

Try wiping and resetting everything. Then put phone into download mode and odin a stock ROM. Then if things work start working again with your signal, flash rc4.2 again. I have flashed loads of ics roms and never had a problem I couldn't fix by going back to stock ROM. Try 2.3.6 the 'leaked one' from Sammobile.
By the way, you have got a i9000 international version haven't you?

Hey, just realised you have i9100. Have you used the right ROM for your phone? Does icssgs release for i9100?
Sent from my GT-i9000 using XDA App
Is ur imei at its place ???
If you've got an sII then icssgs is never going to work - go back to sII rom.
If you've got an sI then as sbnaul pointed out it is most probably your IMEI. Some users found their IMEI changed when upgrading to 4.2
Hopefully you've taken a backup of your efs - if so just copy the backup imei file over.
If not, there is still hope - flash stock gb 2.3 back onto the phone - this should restore the imei. Then take a backup of the efs folder, flash 4.2 and copy your backed up imei into efs
Thanks for the help.
I have 2 phones, one internarional sgs and an international s2.
I mostly use the s2 but i want the sgs to work nonetheless
Im gonna try reflashing the stock, i dont have any efs backups or such:/
I have been looking for a good stock rom but didnt find a good one. Im gonna look for the leaked sammobile release though so thanks for that.
How do i take the needed efs backup? Is it through cwm?
Thanks!

I'm quite sure that this is a modem issue...
If you know, which ROM were you using previous to ICS where the reception was fine, then you can flash that modem.
(For eg.: it was 2.3.6 XXJVU in my case. So, I would require a JVU modem)
Here is a concise list of all the modems: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158783

Yes, I have tried that but it doesnt work.
But now I flashed the stock rom and I got the reception back. So now Im gonna root and try to backup the efs folder.
Thanks alot everybody to answered the thread.
There we go. Now it works again. I didnt even have to restore the efs folder.
I just flashed the stock rom, rooted and then flashed icssgs 4.2 and now it works.
Thanks everyone
full wipe , flash new rom worked for me
I've heard if you flash a stock ROM with Odin, then the problem with the IMEI (efs folder) is often done. Is this right?
