Hey Guys I put together a Q&A thread for this rom to prevent tons of new threads about rom Spicific questions from new users.. Please feel free to post any questions here.
As Aslways there is no Flaming, name calling or the such.
No question is too noobish, But please look for your answer first.
Now for the info needed to help. In your post make sure to included the version of the rom you are using, modem, kernel, ext...
Also please give it some time for your question to be answered.
Thank you for setting up this thread.
I would like to add selected AT&T bloat to my Cognition 3.04 install, specifically the AT&T Hot Spots app. Without this app, I have to manually launch the browser and connect whenever I want to use WIFI at my work.
DesignGears used to have APKs for each bloat item on his Cognition page, but it seems the page does not exist. Where would I go to get this app, along with other selected bloat?
How do you stop cognition from force closing when you try to open the messaging app. I think I am restoring the wrong things on titanium backup

Can you use bluetooth earpiece with your setup, I keep wanting to try FB2 & JK4, but dont want to loose bluetooth while driving. I flashed Cog v3.04 three weeks ago and it's soo much better than stock.
Thanks in advance!

I've had no problems using mine with Cog 3.04
Are you using FB kernel?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Nevermind, fixed it
This won't work...
Here is a quick Rundown
I897 ROM (Cognition) + Stock Kernel + I897 MOdem (Stock = JL1) = BLUETOOTH WORKING (no static)
If you change the Kernel and modem to Firebird and JK4 this breaks the combination and you end up getting static. The Firebird Kernel is based off the i9000 source.
IF you want to use the Firebird Kernel, I suggestng switching to Perception which uses the i9000 source.
*This is my understanding of how this works...if I am wrong please correct me*

I have the same setup cog.3.04 FB2 ver 1.0 and JK4 modem, I used SGS kernel flasher to back up stock cog. kernel. I will flash back to stock kernel and JJ4 modem when I want to use bluetooth then flash back to FB2 and JK4 modem when I want to use Voodoo control for sound. This is all done without loosing data or any of your setup.

I do not use bluetooth for anything other than file transfers. As far as I know, Firebird does not allow for bluetooth dialing or voice.
Newbie: tell me prepare steps before flashing
Please tell me the steps I should do to a pure stock ATT Captivate before flashing Cog ROM (will probably wait for v4 which apparently DG is working on now).
I don't need (right now) the how-to-do-each step, just what to do. May have to ask later for some of the details, but I =think= I know most of the process, just have never done it yet. What I am still not clear on is the "for your safety" (e.g. backups other than Tibu), the "it's a good idea", and the "just in case" to do's.
I would like to end up after flash with all the apps I have now (except ATT bloat). Please include the apps I will need before the flash process and any that would need to be there afterward.
Oh, on ATT apps--I do use the ATT Address book at
Contacts >menu>more>Settings>ATT Address book
because the gmail sync WILL NOT send phone contacts to gmail--only the other way from gmail to phone. So, would like to keep that for backup in case of phone theft/lost. Possible?
Thanks.

Thanks, however, other than doing the root on a stock phone, that is not the BEFORE things--it is the flashing process. I was asking for things desirable to do before starting all of that (well maybe after rooting, but before the flashings).
Examples (made up)..."you should use ____ and manually copy ____ from _____ to ______." You should get ____ app and run it; copy the ____numbers from the screen and save them, or move the file it created at_____ to____.
Maybe there is nothing else that should be done, but I am sure somewhere I read something about that last part (saving some number out of the original setup).
I am trying to avoid any possibility of ending up saying, "Dang, I wish I had _____."

Other than backing up your user apps and the data related to them, there is not much else to do other than root your phone and flash the ROM. Afterwards you can restore user apps and data (but not system data) and flash a separate kernel and/or modem if you like, nut it is not generally necessary to do so. As long as the ROM you are flashing is for the phone you are flashing it on, there should not be any problems.

Hi,
Is there anyway to make the menu from right to left, right the stock ROM?
also arrange the programs in date installed?
Because I didn't find them in this ROM, and I guess it should be a way to do that?
Thanks

Once you switch to a custom ROM you will no longer be able to use ATT Phone Book... I learned this the hard way. Besides... ATT Phone book SUCKS!!! With the new ROMs... Google will sync your contacts better than ATT ever did but since you've already used ATT here' is what you'll have to do to save your contacts.
1. Go into your Contacts on the phone and click on the Menu Soft Key on the phone.
2. Look for an Import/Export feature and click on it.
3. Now Export your contacts to the SD Card. It will name the file something like: 00001.vcf
4. Now either use Drop Box or connect your phone to PC and save the file.
5. Login to Gmail and use the import feature. Click on it and look for the file you just saved and select it. Gmail should now have all your Contacts.
6. Now you are ready to do whatever you want with your phone with no fear in ever losing your contacts,
7. That I'm aware off... once you use a Custom ROM Froyo and above Gmail will sync both ways. You'll just need to select in on the sync and contact menu.
8. From the home screen... click on the Menu Soft Key and go into settings. Look for "Accounts and sync" and click on it. Add your Google account and allow it to "Auto Sync" and "Background data."
9. Now go back to your Contacts and once again go into the Menu Mode. Click on "More" down arrow and click on "Settings".
10. In there you should see a "Save New Contacts to" Click on it and choose Google.
11. Your all done... from now on your phone will keep your Contacts in sync with Google Account even when you add a new one on the phone.
Note: In "Display options" under the Contact Menu... I have mine to only show Contacts on my phone with Phone Numbers only and to only show Contacts from Google. This avoids Repeats or a crap load of email only contacts being shown on my Phone list.
Hope this helps you or anyone else not wanting to lose there Contacts... I had to learn the hard way the first time when I found out ATT sync wouldn't work anymore. It Sucks anyways in comparison to Google Sync since ATT doesn't even allow you to export Contacts from there site.
Thanks you very much for that--very clearly expressed and complete.
Agree the ATT sync is not great, but since Google sync was not taking them, I had to save them somewhere....thus the ATT.
Hmmmm....on Item 4 about Dropbox: I guess I don't know how to make the mobile version work.
I put the vcf file into a folder I made called "nonpublic." It shows on the phone, but is not appearing in the Dropbox account either online or on my laptop.
I don't see a sync button or anything in the menu button, so how do you get things in dropbox folders on the phone to sync to the other places?
LATER: Installed OI File Manager (recommended in a Dropbox document I found) and was able to make it work. In Dropbox on the phone, you have to use menu and command an upload ("Any file"), then it lets you start your file manager, you drill to the file, and upload it into dropbox server; then it syncs. A bit complicated and not immediately obvious--but it is quite a useful capability.
So. Question. Nobody (to my knowledge) has made a one-click-flash-Cognition-to-your-phone-nice-neat-package deal yet...right? I mean, I've been looking at these forums for a while out of curiosity, and I [think] I can handle it through the various methods, but I do feel comfortable with everything settled in one click (or as few clicks and presses as needed). Maybe I'm just scared of unleashing the true potential. IDK. Thoughts? Redirections? Beatings?

So i had JH7 working fine for 24hrs. Noticed on another forum that someone ran the tatyama lag fix and it worked fine.
I tried it and my phone did not recover. I used odin to reflash JH7 and everything came back ok, however my email settings in "account and settings" were still inputted. I went to delete them, and re-add them and I get a
cannot connect to server error message on both my exchange and direct push live accounts.
I have reflashed 3 times and I am currently on JF6, When it goes to verify the account it goes to "checking incoming server settings..." and it just hangs up and after awhile it says to Force close or wait...
or
Setup could not finish
Cannot connect to server.
Anyone experience this before? I can access a website, and setup pop email in the "email" program icon on touchwiz.
please help.
Things i have tried...
-factory reset
-format internal sd
-flashed both JF6 and JH7 same issue
-cleared cache in recover menu
i also get...
Activity (in process Email) is not responding...
I just reflashed with JF6 with PIT and Re-partition checked... no luck..
Is this an ATT issue or my phone?
Did you both try the master wipe option with the odin one click stock?
Try using the One-Click Stock Tool to flash JF6, if you're still having problems after that. Plug your phone in with Debugging turned on and run the Master Clear option. Flash once more just for the hell of it.

Yes i did do the master wipe.
I can confirm that i believe the phone has wiped everything because when i go into lbstestmode, i see all the default stock options like lcs.spri..etc... no google settings.
can someone try to add a hotmail account to their "corporate" email settings.
should be...
email
password.
server= m.hotmail.com
login= your full email
see if it gets stuck on incoming..etc
can't imagine a lagfix crapout would kill my email program to where i can't have any activesync email addresses....
just tried adding att apn manually. no dice.

I have done all of these twice.. including wiping my internal sd card as well and no external sd card in the phone.
i am able to setup a google account, facebook, and pretty much everything else.
Just the exchange email setup freezes on incoming settings screen and or won't connect to the server.
I'm having the same issue and have tried the same things, but I didn't do a lagfix.
I'm using Exchange, not Hotmail, but I have the EXACT same issues as you.
If I can get it working I'll post it here. Someone on AndroidForums is having the same issue too.
I went back to JF6 and it was having the same issues when it was working fine before JH7.
I just notice the same issue while trying to add exchange account. gonna try to flash back to JF6 and see if issue persist.

I had it all working fine last night with JH& and SRE 1.3
I read somewhere to NOT check the re-partiion in ODIN- that JH7 will not work unless you leave this box unchecked.

Yeah, I didn't have that checked at all
Just wanna verify with other people. It seems even after rolled back to JF6 or flash with stock kernel, the kernel version is still shown as 2.26.29 [email protected]#2. I couldn't flash unhelpful or stock kernel anymore. What's the kernel version supposed to be in JF6?
i can flash any kernel or rom and exchange setup craps out. I may have to go to ATT for an exchange
It appears that my suspisisons were correct.
IT WAS ATT!!!!!
I can add exchange accounts this morning with no issue!
going to reflash JH7 now..
argh!

Looks like its working here too. I was even trying to do it over WiFi last night though...weird.
Yep. It's working for me to. However, I didn't test again before I reflashed to i9000 JM7. Anyway, I'm happy now.
Is anyone else having this issue? I have flashed my phone to every possible combination and done the master clear but it still hangs when I go to setup my exchange settings.
I already have mine setup, but it seems to crash (FC) on occasion, so there's still an issue somewhere.
Hello everybody. I've never unlocked, rooted, or done any modding to a phone before... I'm also not much of a unix/linux guy, but have SOME familiarity with it.
OK, so.....
I've been doing some reading around this forum & am still confused about some things, and also have some questions I haven't found answered. I apologize if these have been asked/answered elsewhere, but I have tried searching.
1. Some terms are used in this forum that I am unfamilar with: adw, adm? jig?
2. After flashing to froyo, everyone has the same Android Device ID? So, how do you restore your own ID, I haven't seen this answered anywhere.
3. I've seen people mentioning phone batches... what is this info needed for? Mine is batch 1009 if that matters.
4. OK, so if you screw something up & brick your phone... you can use ODIN w/JF6 to fix this? There is no way to be unable to un-brick your phone, as long as you have ODIN & JF6?
5. I've downloaded the GalaxyS OCR software, but you still need to use another program to flash your ROM file over? Am I understanding this correctly?
6. Where do I get the ROMs for froyo.. and what is the easiest software to use for flashing the rom? I see people mentioning Cognition a lot, but they also mention some others like Axura. Is there a definitive comparison of the various ROMs someplace that I am missing?
Thanks in advance everybody!

1. Some terms are used in this forum that I am unfamilar with: adw, adm? jig?
Adw is a launcher
Not sure on adm
Jig is a device some have put together and used to recover from brick
2. After flashing to froyo, everyone has the same Android Device ID? So, how do you restore your own ID, I haven't seen this answered anywhere.
There is an app on the market android id changer. I believe you need to be rooted. Download app, click save id. When you load a froyo rom some will automatically use the saved id, others may not. In the case that it does not get same app load id, click change. Phone still reboot id will be changed
3. I've seen people mentioning phone batches... what is this info needed for? Mine is batch 1009 if that matters.
You should be fine. I am the same batch
4. OK, so if you screw something up & brick your phone... you can use ODIN w/JF6 to fix this? There is no way to be unable to un-brick your phone, as long as you have ODIN & JF6?
Odin will save you from just about everything. Couple things, only works on pc. Download drivers for the phone prior to flashing anything. Make sure your phone is recognized by the pc. Attempt to get into download mode. Pull battery, sim, external sd. Put battery back in. while holding volume up and down plug in usb while connected to pc. Screen should show orange guy with shovel. If works just pull battery to get out of that screen
Attempt to get into recovery. Volume up and down and per at the same time. When at &t screen comes up, let go of all three. A screen should come up with blue letters
If you can not get into either of these I would not flash
5. I've downloaded the GalaxyS OCR software, but you still need to use another program to flash your ROM file over? Am I understanding this correctly?
Yes
6. Where do I get the ROMs for froyo.. and what is the easiest software to use for flashing the rom? I see people mentioning Cognition a lot, but they also mention some others like Axura. Is there a definitive comparison of the various ROMs someplace that I am missing?
Roms can be found in the captivate development section. There are several froyo roms.
You install roms using free app, rom manager. Download app, open, top option says flash clockwork recovery, click and scroll to captivate. This puts an update zip on your sd card. Power phone off. Get into recovery, three button combo you tested before. Navigate in recovery using volume up and down, select with power. Scroll to reinstall packages. You may get butted back to the same screen, click reinstall packages, will take you to a green recovery screen. Reboot phone.
Find the rom you want and download, can be done directly on phone. Move file to the root If your sd card. Power off remove sim and external sd. Make sure your battery is fully charged. Open rom manager app. Click install rom from sd. Navigate to file, select clear cache and data. If you want to backup your current state there is an option to do so. Click ok, put your phone down, be patient. Couple minutes later you will be booting into your new rom.
Hope this helps

Personally... I don't know if everyone should be trying to install custom ROM's on their phones.
Alot of people have too many issues figuring out how to root, sideload enable, and then download ROM Manager to install a custom ROM. Then when things go south they don't know how to restore their phone and end up having to warranty it.
Doing any of the above will immediately void your warranty.
But... with all that said I'm running a "stock" Eclair OTA JH7 right now with a few tweaks - and I really can't say I'm missing all the "Froyo goodness" at the moment.
I've rooted and allowed non-market apps with CLShortfuse's One-Click Root program.
Then I downloaded a Lag Fix (RyanZA's OCLF) from the market... and the phone has been screaming along just fine.
And of course.. GPS still doesn't work - but at this point I'm used to it.
No issues with headphone's not working, or terrible battery drain, or the other myriad of issues you will find by installing the latest and greatest. So... rather than start in with the latest popular ROM - I'd just Root and apply a Lagfix and see how it goes from there. If at that point your really comfortable with flashing a ROM - go for it.

OK, so I've dipped my toe in & rooted the phone using TGA_Gunnman's "GalaxyS_One-Click_Root_All_Models"
According to the program, I'm rooted. Phone rebooted into that recovery mode & I chose "Reinstall all packages".
Phone rebooted as it's supposed to. Went into Market, all seems good, but I can't find this OCLF you mention. Searched on RyanZA, OCLF, and also "lag fix" but don't get any results... ??
Also, The AT&T programs are no longer listed under my applications manager, were they uninstalled by default? I still see a couple of AT&T apps when I go to view all applications, but can't find these apps to uninstall in the app manager section.

OCLF I believe had been taken off the market but I would not suggest using that program for anything other then rooting your f device
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
So it has... whats the deal?
Not sure why it was removed but I only used it as an easy way to root. The lag fix on that app was an ext 2 lag fix that is obsolete. If you are willing to apply a lag fix and want froyo read the cognition, perception, auxura, etc threads in development and decide which one you want.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
If you just want your phone to work, I'd suggest just doing one of the lag fixes and staying as "stock" as possible. There's a one-click root/unroot for the captivate for rooting. The rest is up to you. But, for me having exchange support for work is a must and Froyo works perfectly with my company's exchange set up.
If you're a "tinkering" type of person, then go for some custom stuff! I believe best way to learn is just go do it. Read through the development section for a week or so (post your questions in this section though... devs seem to be a little snippy lately) and have fun. Odin has saved me from bricking my device a few times. Like was said before just make sure you download and test working usb drivers and can that you can access your device from windows.
Good luck!

The market and some games access it. So with leaked froyo, when everyone has the same id it causes issues because there can be like a thousand people with the same id trying to download at the same time.
As far as the games,i never had a problem do I can not say which ones and what the issue was

AT&T applications are system applications and therefore do not show under the default application manager view. If you are still "stock", you would do Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Press Menu button>Filter>All. This will list all the applications on the phone. Be careful what you try and remove if you do this. Remove the wrong system app and your phone will dump. Most system apps won't let you remove them this way, you would have to use ADB or Titanium Backup to remove.
Search and read. Good Luck!
iirc batch 1009 doesnt have download mode.
you should flash the one click that enables the 3 button download mode before you do anything...
then make a jig so that you can recover if anything ever messes up...
then go nuts and flash 10x a day.
Ah thanks for the info, that shows them. So, I havne't done a thing other than root the phone so far. I've been trying to find the 'lag fix', but haven't been able to. I have however found a lot of posting on how the lag fix makes the phone much faster, but also drains the hell out of the battery. Any opinions on that? That's really all i wanted right now, a faster phone & get rid of some AT&T apps. One of them seems to run all the time (I use my wifi a lot), is it safe to kill AT&T Hot Spots, or will I lose wifi connectivity if I do that?

The only lag fixes out there come with custom roms or kernals. Battery life depends on the rom but common sense would dictate if you are driving 100 mile per hr it will take more gas then going 50
I do not think you will have any issues killing at&t hot spots. It is gone from all custom roms so it can not be too important. Do not mess with anything google especially gtalk

Any suggestions on a ROM for someone that just wants to speed up the phone a bit & lose the ATT bloatware? Don't really care if it's 2.2, I can wait for the official to come out & be ROM'd up by the geniuses here

If you do not care about 2.2 a good starter rom would be cognition 2.16. You can get it here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=786532
Click on get cognition here. It will bring you to a page with a bunch of links. Personally I would use the 2.16 without hsupa. If you never use bluetooth then it does not make a difference. This rom uses the voodoo lagfix. The only downfall is that everyone had moved to 2.2 roms do if you post questions in that thread I am not sure you will get much back.
If you are going 2.2 I would read and try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=856877
Perception is also an option but from what I am reading I would not flash the latest update until it gets worked through some.

I am probably not the best to explain this but it is a faster upload and download capability that us not standard on the Captivate. Meaning if you have it, and the data in your area is strong, you should have a faster download/browser experience

Okay Heres the problem
I am Running DesignGears Perception Build 9.5 and want to use Pandora radio...
Every time i run pandora it will start to play a song and out of no where just stop no specific time just whenever it wants... I have been searching and searching and searching for a fix to no avail. I came upon a thread in xda that i thought might have some Connection or Correlation to my issue
Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737111
now it shows some steps and thats for The Nexus One and not for Samsung Captivate... Could there be any fix for this because I love the Perception build I checked with DesignGears and people have told me its not the rom. I have reflashed and reinstalled so please don't suggest that and i really don't want to go back to Eclair because Froyo will never be released anytime soon by AT&T we all know this... Please Please Please Help I will be in great debt to whoever helps
Thanks in advance

Did you try using what was instructed?
Could try pulling the build.prop as it instructs (doesn't affect your phone) and see if that line is in there? If so you should be able to use the ADB command to temporarily disable it (i.e. it will turn back on when you reboot your phone) what is causing the issue with Pandora.

May want to try Build 9.9 then. Yes the GPS doesn't work but eh, it comes preloaded with pandora and works.
Hrm - that would be an issue.
I'd say read the Q&A sticky (yes I plug my own posts shamelessly) and look for the ADB how-to link. Can open up the build.prop with notepad and look for the line it posts.
It is pretty simple stuff once you start playing around with it.
Just a couple thoughts. Are you turning off your data 2G/3G to save on data? If so, have you disabled wick when the screen goes to sleep?

Make sure to do a FULL wipe of everything when you install the rom. Odin to stock, remove sim/sd then odin Master clear, copy the rom file(s) to internal SD, then when you are in CWM select erase all user data and then install it as normal.
Worth a shot if you are not too comitted to the current install...
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.

could it be something to do with the file system gingerbread uses? these issues only started when I went back from gingerbread to froyo? (and before you ask, I have tried going back to gingerbread with no solution)
I may have to bite the bullet and shoot it back to Samsung... or just buy another one! would love to try FULL-i9000UGJH2.tar if you could remember where you got it?
Thanks again for your help.

The way you're referring to accessing this internal SD....are you flashing your ROMs to an external microsd card?
Here is the full UGJH2 that I flashed (with no other options) that saved me.

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.
Thanks for the upload mate, I really appreciate it, currently downloading it, will let you know.

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.

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.
Is there a list of system apps that can be removed saftly without issue??
Easy. Don't touch system apps that are google related or service related.
Can I remove the stock messaging app (I already have Go sms Pro)
Same question for stock camera & stock dialer?
Go SMS recommends not to remove the Stock SMS App to let it work correctly, you should know that when you looked through Go SMS Settings.
Apart from that, this list might help.

So, the quick post here, is that this list says it's ok to delete "search applications provider" and I'm pretty sure I just screwed up my phone doing that.
now, the longer post in case someone notices this and can give me some sweet advice:
I just rooted my Galaxy Ace S5830l, then added Link2SD to remove the bloatware. found this site, and this post in a google search for what .apk's i could delete. was going down this list trying to use common sense and the descriptions, when i got to "search applications provider" aka applicationsprovider.apk and the list said it was ok to delete it. described it as "Fetches the list of applications installed on the phone to provide search suggestions. " which didn't seem all that important.
like many of the applications i'd deleted, it caused a reboot of the phone, but this time, after the animation, in got stuck on the pulsing "samsung" and never moved past it. I had no idea what was going on. browsing this site, I'm guessing that's what you guys call a "boot loop"
i removed the battery to try and restart it, but it just stopped in the same place. I tried to reboot from the recovery window, but same thing. once, I decided to try a factory reset, and when i did that it seemed to come back (in spanish b/c i've got the latin version of the phone) but when this happened I didn't have access to anything at all. the clock and signal were on, but i couldn't even get to settings to change the language. I tried another reboot, and ended up back in the samsung pulsing logo. now, even the factory reset doesn't seem to get me back to that point.
browsing the site here, I've now seen a FAQ that seems to imply it would have been smart to download clockworkmod, though i'm not even sure that's true (seems like that's for people installing ROMs?) I'm not kidding when i say i'm in over my head. I've rooted phones before and that's about it. everyone posting help for people in a bootloop seem to be helping people who intalled a bad .apk, not deleted an important one.
I'm doing my best here, trying to learn what all these things are (CWM, Odin, ROMs etc) to see if there's a solution that should be obvious, but if anyone's got any help and can point me in the right direction, i'd appreciate it.

I dont want to say much, i think i just give you the link below. You need times to understand. im sorry if im not quite helpful. Simple procedure: Root, install CWM, and flash Custom Rom!... IF you decide not to use the custom rom, but just want to use the original stock, flash new firmware to override your old system. The link below provides you everything about rooting and flashing Rom. Hopefully, it will works.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12874680#post12874680
yes, that is helpful. I have my phone rooted, but don't have clockwork mod, and while i can get my phone to boot, it won't show any applications or let me do much of anything. i can't open the dialer or even settings to change it to english, but i do receive phone calls.
I'm hoping that since it's rooted i'll be able to flash a ROM onto it with Odin. I'm completely new to this, so I guess it's a trial by fire. I suppose there is a chance that i'll be able to figure out how to add the .apk i deleted back to the phone without flashing a new ROM, but that seems unlikely.
I'm currently reading through an Odin how-to in the SIII forum, but i've browsed the link you gave, and i'll give it my full attention next, learning bit by bit.
thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Fixing without odin could be possible but wouldn't make any sense because you've already wiped your data with factory reset, right?
So odin is the best option for you!
