Big Problem with my Galaxy S

Hey Guys
got some problems with my galaxy s
tried to delete the contacts manualy and mixed up some stuff.
then i replaced /system/app/contacts with the one from the n1 from froyo
after this i did a hard reset and a cleared the cache.
now after reboot i got a lot of fcs and cant enter menu or anything, but i need to enable usb-debugging to come in to recovery mode or download mode since this phone has no 3 button recovery or download mode
does anyone has some sort of suggestion how to solve this problem?
greetz and thanks for every reply

And guess what
It had to be posted in android development section!
Tried adb in recovery?

tried it and didnt work since adb isnt activated on the phone and i cant enter settings menu because i everything fcs within a second

Ah rite, I thought ADB was always active in recovery mode...Apparently its not.
And yes, this looks bad. Nothing comes into my mind... Is there a way to flash update.zip from external sd?

i guess there is no way to flash it without recovery...
if i gett wifi working is there a way to open adb via wifi without using an app like adbWireless or with the terminalpro?

Thread moved. Why was this posted in Development?
WB

I think this is one nasty brick...
Does kies recognize the phone? There is a way to reflash current firmware using it...

sorry for posting in developer thread...
if i try coneccting with kies i get android.process.media fc

I'm afraid I cant help you. Try good folks from #project-voodoo on freenode.
Lack of 3 button recovery is a *****.

jea i still dont get why they even blocked 3 button combo
well ill try a little more and tomorrow im going to call the shop were i bought it...
lets hope they are realy nice people
*edit
if i try to conecct with kies i come to that point that kies says " Das gerät wird verbunden" wich is german and means something like the device is beeing coneccted ...

wanted to give a short update
i am getting a new phone tomorrow and then i will be sending my old phone back to the shop where i bought it hope this one doesnt have the 3 botton mode locked

[Q] pattern locked. cant figure it out!

hi guys..
i have a problem with my sgs i 9000 and im getting really insane.
ive read every post about the patternlock issues but still cant unlock my cell..
First of all i know that im typing the email right but it tells me that its wrong.
I did a factory reset with the (volume up-power key-homebutton), the reset worked but it still askes me after the google account again!.
when im calling my phone to do the tricks and go to the setting (which ive read in many sections) the phone doesnt bell or anything, its on and the simcard is fine but when im calling from my home phone doesnt ring or anything..
ive tried to plug the usb but its dead it doesnt recognise the phone with kies or anything..
Any ideas guys? im desparate because ive lost many things on the phone and i need it now!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913 try that, it has all the stock ROMs just reflash with odin and that should do the trick, instructions on how to do it are on that post too,
good luck
** As your gunna re-flash, Have you not considered a new custom ROM altogether ? plenty to chose from on this site. **

I suggest you follow the above link and flash to stock. It's very simple.. takes me 10 mins to get back to stock and up and I have only done this 2 times. There are people who do it several times a week.
I suggest you go for Darky's 8.0 ROM if you're new. It's one of the best.

[Q] i9000 gone crazy, voodoo lagfix

Hello everyone.
i had very weird situation yesterday.. i forgot my phone inside my car for few hours playing music, when i came back for him, his battery was dead and it was turned off.
when i charged him and turned him on, he started to vibrate for every app started and closing it automatically, including pro launcher and every possible common app, even the market.. all my data was erased, my phone numbers sms etc...
i tried to re boot the device by holding power, volume and home but it keep leading me to a yellow screen says "Downloading... don't turn off target"
I'm kinda newbie so be gentle =]
how do i get rid of this screen and flash new rom?
either after the reboot the market app disappear
model number: GT-I9000
firmware version : 2.2 (im pretty sure it was 2.2.1)
basehand version: I9000JHJP5
kernel vesion: 2.6.32.9
[email protected] #voodoo-5-stable-RC1
build number:
FROYOJHJP8

are you sure someone else didn't either play with or switch the phone?
they don't just wipe themselves (usually)

i'm sure, i forgot it in my car.. when i realize i dont have the phone on me, i tryed to call it and it was turned off.. i came back to my car and fount it there as i left it..

soudns like you need to flash back to standard firmware with Odin.
the download screen is...well the download screen, holding those buttons does not reset the phone, it allows it to enter doanload mode.
try searching on here for a guid on how to flash standard firmware using odin. that sould sort it.

Have you not seen this all over the news ?? there is a crazed lunatic going around, stalking galaxy s users, waiting for his opportunity to sneakily wipe their phones without them knowing.. he is a man of mystery and is yet to be caught.....
YoU hAvE bEeN wArNeD !!!! BEWARE !!!

really
look i know there is those stickies but i have no clue where i should start and exactly i need to dd.. im reading those threads all day..
Kies is unable to update my firmware..
i disabled voodoo's lagfix through clockworkMod Recovery hoping that will work.
is that yellow screen says "downloading... do not turn off target" is normal?
why after i did reboot my Market disappear?
i lost in those stickies, anyone?

[Q] Rogers phone soft bricked build 11.02

Hey guys, hopefully someone is able to help . I recently soft brick my friends phone without realizing that Samsung have changed the build number on this phone. This is also a nice warning for those of you who are about to use odin to flash.
Build #11.02 number found under battery Rogers Phone.
Flashed with odin using pit and tar file = fail. Reason for flashing was to get it to Rogers stock 2.1.
3 button is not working, I get the phone and computer screen.
I have try the Jig and it also put the phone into download mode. I get the phone and computer screen instead. The Jig however does work on my phone build #10.12 also a rogers phone.
What I may think Samsung may have done was change the jig setting and I have no clue on which pin to touch without frying the phone (if what is possible?).
If anyone with more experience or could shed some insight on how I can go about fixing this problem please do not hesitate to leave a comment.
Thank You
Bui.

which stock did you use? the one in my sig?
also the 11.02 phone, did it come with 2.2? i have talked with 1 IN-experienced user that had a 2.2 phone that would not boot with 2.1. they had to flash 2.1 then the 2.2 overtop to get it to work, but once again it was a noob and may have been another issue.
ok to try to get back to download mode:
take out battery
plug in usb
hold both vol buttons
put in battery
flash again, odin sometimes fails without reason but will work another time...

I did not use the one you posted and it did come with 2.2. I used the one that worked for my phone build #10.12 which did not worked. I was also assuming he had the same build as I. After I realized that and try using the Jig and notice all fail also. Not sure what is up at the moment.

I have try all the download mode that is possible on the forums to get my phone into download all has fail. I still get the phone --- ! --- computer symbol.
I also try using the Jig I build on pin 4 and 5 and still nothing. The total resister is 301k ohms if anyone has simular problem and manage to get their phone into download mode please post your result as many other may also have simular problem.
Thank you
Bui.

Solution
Hey,
I have the same 11.02 build number Rogers Captivate and would like to try a custom rom but I'm holding off until I know it can be recovered should a problem come up.
Have you found a solution to this problem yet?

hi can someone help me please i have a problem with my samsung galaxy s

i tried to update the firmware today to 2.2 all was going well but when i switched my phone off and tried to turn it back on all i get now is the boot up screen and i have no firmware on my phone. i have checked all forums and tried all the solutions but i cant get any of them work. i cant get to the download screen. any help would be greatly appreciated.

You dont say how you updated if Kies then their is a recover firmware or similar tab .
As you switched your phone off its worth taking the battery out for a short while and reboot .
No download then two choices if Kies update then a service centre .
Non standard firmware upgrade then three button download mode recovery jig once more wish i had the patent .

1) check whether you can enter download mode (power+home+volume down during startup)
2) not able to get into download mode, possibly try the jig suggested in the previous post. This is a homemade gadget (or you could order it on ebay) and this might take you to download mode
3) if you just updated through KIES best bet is to visit a service center and they will probably fix it for you for free...
Good luck!

If u tried to update throug KIES, in tools there are an option that says Emergency Firmware Recover (or something like this, I have it in spanish), look if there are your device marked and try to repair.
If not appear here, then suggest going to Service Center.
If u don't do it on Kies, Reflash another ROM.
