Condtant freezes on new SGS - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Helo, i bought my suposetly new SGS from a small shop in LT, the phone is an unlocked orange (UK operator) device. From my view it hasnt been flashed with custom rom, (no bootloader or cwr screen when loading, but im just comparing to my hd2 that i sold which had those)
The problem is- i get constant freezes/crashes when i do more than one task,for ex. If i play a video file and someone calls it freezes, or if im playing a game it craches on loading screens, if i listen to music and browsing net and then someone calls, phone is dead... I usualy press the on/off button for 10sec and it restarts.
Anybody have any idea what could be wrong?

You probably mean Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread)?
Seems like some of your files are corrupted. I would try hooking it to your PC and re-install your firmware using Samsung Kies.
ALT:
You can flash an official ROM. Downloaded from http://www.samfirmware.com/
Click:
Tool >> Firmware >> Android FW
good luck

Im still new to my phone, how can i reinstal firmware through Kies? Never seen an option for that, just updates,sync...
And if i flash a stock rom i supose it kills my waranty,since i should instal bootloaders,cwr and so on?

Flashing a firmware won't void your warranty, rooting however will, but all you need to do is flash back to a firmware, and they will never know

So how do i flash, reinstal firmware without rooting?

I9000B lagfix problem

Hello guys,
I'm having a problem with my Galaxy S, I'm noob w/ Android. I read many users(not from here) saying that Lagfix really does a difference in performance, excited, I downloaded GST(Galaxy S Tweaker) and without root, instaled lagfix.
Now my Galaxy S is working, BUT, the home button stopped working and the back button is working as home button, also the camera stopped working, the touch became horrible, I can only connect to computer using Debug mode and everytime that I turn on the cellphone, appears I9000B and before appear the S logo it changes to I9000.
There's something that I can do?
I'm really desperate and don't care if lose data. I only wanna my Galaxy S working as it should be.
Eh. What's the name odd your device. Sounds like you installed lag fix for the international sgs

reflash it back to stock or flash another ROM made for the I9000 or I9000M instead of USA variants

[Q] Can't recieve phone calls on Vibrant after updating to Doc Kalpik JP6 V6 ROM

Hi Guys,
I flashed my phone today to the Doc Kalpik JP6 V6 ROM (2.2) and since then I cannot receive phone calls.
When someone calls the phone rings/vibrates once, some error appears on the screen (disappears too fast to read) and the phone hangs up.
Everything else works including making phone calls, sms, internet, etc.
I am running a vibrant on Rogers.
i updated my phone to stock european JPK and the same thing happened to me. i have a bell samsung galaxy s i9000m.

Hmmm maybe this is why they pulled froyo. I noticed that today I'm having that same problem with jpm. Sometimes calls come in fine but half of the time it didn't.

I have the same problem too on a bell galaxy s vibrant i9000m. Can somebody please answer?

I have the exact same problem too! But strange thing is: when you disable data connection, calls get through!!!
Did any of you restore backup apps after rom updating?
At first I did but then I did a wipe & reflashed so there shouldn't be anything left!

Wiping solved my problems. Then i had to install every app manullay though.
Have you tried it with Data Connection on? Please give it a try & tell me if you can receive calls flawlessly when Data Connection is active.

[Q] upgrade problem

hi everyone ,
I have a problme with my samsung galaxy i9000. when i was upgrading it on Kies , the connection was broken. and i can not switch on my on. i tried to connect the phone to the kies again, but kies is searching the phone the gives an error message " the phone is not responding to solve problem ..
what can i do ? i bought this phone last year ( in may) with contract. do i have a chance to send it guaranty???
thank you very much...
If you are on stock rom and havnt modified the rom in any way (rooted) and you have a guarantee...send it back and claim. Thats what its there for.
Or if you can get into download mode (volume down + home + power button) you could do it yourself using odin. Flash the same stock rom but you will lose all your apps and data.

if still under warranty take it in... don't mess with it.

HELP! Samsung SIII LTE - unstable issues no matter what kernel or ROM

Hey guys...
First time poster on here and after some BIG help... any will be useful and i thank you in advance for taking the time...
Ok without writing a novel i will give as much information as i can without beating around the bush. Then followed by details on the phone.
Issue:
So no matter what kernel or ROM & apps (or no apps) i put on this phone it is always unstable and reboots itself. Some ROMS doesn't even load.
The phone has been rooted correctly 'used the samsung root tool kit' with the correct one for the phone Australia i9305 LTE version.
I used to have rXTREME 7 which was OK - it rebooted maybe 3-5 times a day if i was frequently using it, but annoying.
I tried the rXTREME12.1 installed fine, the phone was restored to default, Xache & Davik Cache where all cleared and installed rom on fresh system however it would just hang on the Samsung logo... and do nothing.. i have also tried the CyanogenMod and Paranoidandroid 3.97 halo ROM's and they wouldn't load....
Currently i have Ripper Rom and it works however whenever i try and do ANYTHING it reboots itself... i will be lucky to get a good 2mins of it working correclty without it having to reboot... So far this morning it has rebooted about 31 times (no joke i have been counting) just trying to access my email... Not matter what i do, replaying to MSG's trying to answer the phone (swipe just doesn't work) or it will just reboot itself...
In saying this i have also tried to unroot the phone and installed the standard OPTUS rom and it was also so unstable it would do the same thing, however would wipe any information i had put on the phone... apps, data, contacts...
Details on the Phone:
Australian LTE GT-i9305
Android V: 4.1.2
Baseband V: I9305XXBLL5
Kernel V: 3.0.31-1153417 [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri May 31 23:10:25 KST 2013
Build Number: Ripper ROM V17.2
Recovery: Team Win Recovery Project v2.3.30
Again please help!!! i am at at a end and want to smash the phone to peices.........
Thanks in Advance for any help or advice!

nateboi81, thanks for that..
I have given that a go and it hasn't worked. still has rebooted 20 times this morning :S
I don't know what to do.. HELP? PLEASE....
Wipe phone factory reset flash stock rom and test fails then its hardware .
jje
Yeah it sounds like you've done everything so it sounds hardware related. If it's still under warranty hopefully you can still run triangle away to clear the flash counter before you send it in for repair but I don't think you have any other choice
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the help guys..
I have a funny feeling it is hardware related as well
I do have triangle away, and the phone gets rid of all the flashes bar 1... it shows the count as 1... so don't know if warranty will cover it?
On that note of a stock flash, does anyone have the latest OPTUS Australian LTE version??????
Again, thanks for your time...

You need to flash triangle away and then boot into download mode and flash a stock rom. Should be able to find it on the sammobile website

Stock rom is up on sammobile, I have both stock ics and stock jb files for optus Australia which I can upload if required.
update -
So the phone has another version of teamwin recovery v2.3.3.0 and installed the xrtreme13 rom and is completely fine... untill you put a sim card in the phone... I tired all the different modems and it still crashed...
If i put another sim in it, and still does it, does it mean the modem on the phone is borked? and should get a new one? or is there a fix for this???
However we did pin point what the problem is...
Cheers,
Scotty

[Q] korean galaxy note capacitive button stopped working suddenly.

hi friends need help .
Last night i rooted my galaxy note with cwm.tar recovery and superuser.
everything was working fine until i downloaded rom manager and did something, i dont remember (perhaps flashed rom ) and my device restarted after that my capacitve back button and menu button stopped working and lights are showing on always even i tried to disable it from setting. I flashed to stock rom ics and jelly bean but still problem not solved please help me friends. i sure its not hardware issue any suggestion ?
galaxy note shve160s.
OK here's you're first problem, this is not the thread for your device. Second you may need to use Odin to flash your original stock ROM. Your stock firmware can be found at www.sammobile.com or samfirmware.com. If that doesn't work it maybe a hardware problem. Next time search XDA for your phone's model number. This thread is for SGH-T879. Good luck. P.S. don't use ROM manager to flash CWM If your exact phone isn't listed. You're lucky you didn't brick your phone.
