So my tab was running 2.2 and I wanted to switch it over to 3.0 beta. So i first started by rooting my tab with super one click. That went well and next I loaded Rom Manager. Afterwards I tried performing a backup and for some reason it didn't work. Well after that try my tablet got very very very slow. So i did a factory reset it was still very slow. I also lost all my data connections (3g, gps etc but wifi still worked)
Today I realized why tab would'nt boot into CWM so I ended up changing the Kernel all went well till I rebooted. Now my tab is stuck on the Samsung Logo when its unplugged and stuck on the charging logo with the little circle when its plugged in.
Can I fix this by using heimdall and flashing the stock rom? How do I know when its done charging?
Please help
the charging while off was a known issue for one of the CWM kernels. If you can get into download mode and use Heimdall to go back to stock you should be in good shape.
Ok so I just got in and reflashed with all the stock stuff. Now I get the battery charging level but the screen seems to be stuck at the VerizonWireless logo. I wiped the cache and data and still stuck on the VZW logo.
Thanks
K so now the tablet booted up but still my 3g doesn't work and the tab is still slow.
trying to unroot the device as well how can I? I hear the superoneclick does not completely unroot
I'm checking the device status and there are a lot of unknowns

You need to flash a stock modem. Check the modem list. Read the posts for I know that the modem on the op doesn't work but someone posted another file on the thread. It worked for me.

Did you flash the one posted in the modem thread and not original post?

You do realise that 100% is complete and you can reset the tab? If it keeps hanging after you reset from there then theres something not right with what you used or did...
Never had my gtab reset itself after flashing with Heimdall...

Hey guys,
i flashed my cappy from cog to the froyo but data and voice didnt seem to work, flashed back to stock then did a master clear and reflashed to froyo and same issue no data or voice, it shows the airplane mode although the setting says its off...
any suggestions?
EDIT: com.android.phone seems to be the problem, i cant access it using the *#... etc method...
how can i fix this?
I would try doing a master clear, then one-clicking. Also, some others said that simply rebooting may help. Also, is applicable, dont restore "system apps and data" from titanium backup, only "missing apps plus data" hope this helps
nope didnt work, i didnt even restore anything yet, its just weird because everything works flawless except voice and data....any help is appreciated
Settings
Wireless and Network
Mobile Networks
Access Point Names (is it empty? is there an entry but it doesnt have a green dot next to it?)
Menu button
Reset to Default
OR
if default does not work, try adding a NEW APN. you will find settings around the forums for APN
Go to settings and do a reset to factory in there. That fixes a similar error for me.

1.) Master Clear with current ROM
2.) Flash to stock JF6 using ODIN
3.) UPDATE TO JH7 using KIES MINI (I think this may fix the airplane mode issue)
4.) Flash to Froyo using ODIN'
This is exactly what I would do, let me know how it works for you buddy!
nope, i cant even access mobile networks it gives me an error "check simcard if its inserted" but it is, and when i flash back to jm or jh it works fine...

So only the update to JI6 (Froyo) causes the issue?
Maybe the link you downloaded from was corrupt? There was about 20 links last night haha.
yea only the ji6, cant be corrupt because i downloaded the orginal (was one of the first to download it) and a mirrored one.... still something fishy, be in mind i did have cog with voodoo and i never disabled it the lag fix... but im guessing the whole rom wouldnt work if that was the issue correct?
VooDoo would have been cleared when you did Master Clear, I believe.
Maybe try the Kies Mini update to JH7 and THEN flash the Froyo.

That's the FIRST thing I do if I run into any problems on android
im trying the kies jh7 then flash method, but i did reboot several times and baseband never came back....should it be unplugged to pc or plugged?
Let me know how the Kies JH7 and then Flash method works for you; I think it SHOULD work because I was on stock JH7 when I flashed to Froyo JI6 and I have had nothing but a great experience since!
sorry guys neither method worked, im guessing its a simple stupid fix...... its getting frustrating ...........
I was reading other posts where guys were having that issue with phones that were not on att network. This seems to lock you onto att and no other network will work. At least that was the opinion of the other posts.
FOUND THE PROBLEM BUT CANT SOLVE IT !!!!
com.android.phone ---> is corrupted, i tried going into it and it doesnt let me giving me a FC..
any one got an dea how to resolve it?
Start from scratch my friend:
1.) Re-Flash Stock ODIN JF6 and then update to JH7 using Kies Mini
2.) REDOWNLOAD Froyo JI6 using the same link I did:
http://www.ponack.net/designgears/I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears.exe
3.) Before Flashing JI6 please do a master clear, factory data reset and FORMAT all your SD cards
Then that should solve any problems you have buddy!
just so i know im doing it right... can you tell me how to do a master clear please !!
To do a master clear, enable usb debugging on your captivate, go to the homescreen, open odin, plug in your device. Once it is recognized press master clear from the homescreen. It will clear it and reboot your device

wifi stopped working i believe right after i flashed to the latest cyanogen mod, or shortly after. Today i flashed back to rogers stock froyo and still wifi does not work. Wtf is going on, did my router block access to it after cyanogen was installed or something?

Try some troubleshooting first.
Reset your Access Point/Router, or try a different router/ap. Flash back to 100% stock and do a "master clear".
I also find it useful to clear out the /efs partition after returning to Samsung ROMs after using CyanogenMod. Of course ONLY do this after you have a tested and safely stored a backup of your current "nv_data.bin" file. You have been warned.
Take out your battery and just let your phone chill for a few hours. That sometimes helps too.
Anyway, if after a complete flash to stock and master clear, and some troubleshooting with different access points you still get no WiFi signal, something may be wrong with your hardware...
From there you might either need to send it into a Samsung service center, or find a very technically minded XDA member to help you further. Good luck!
Hello all,
please forgive me first of all because I've had very little sleep due to this issue. And its a long thread, but more detail is better generally I believe.
First, some background, and unfortunately, it starts with my wifes phone.
My wife has a Galaxy S GT-i9000 on Orange in the UK. She has had it, probably about a year maybe at most. She has a few apps that she has downloaded but nothing major and on first looks when I got it nothing I expect would cause this issue, just facebook etc.
My wife came home and said, my phone keeps coming up with a message saying force close. Ahh, I thought, some apps gone nuts, but alas, it appeared to be many apps including Maps, Google Upload (I assume this is a system process), Facebook Katana and many more, probably about 20 Force Close messages pop up one after the other and it lags whilst trying.
Odd, I thought, I also noticed the icon for one of the apps on her homescreen had changed to the default White and Green one with the android on it.
I suspected something had gone wrong (obviously), I asked if she had rebooted it and she said she had. So, I rebooted it again, just incase. Same problem.
I then thought it might need an update, it was running official Kies 2.3.3 (or was it 2.3.4, I forget) so I plugged it into my netbook and ran Kies, had to update that as it didn't have the latest application update. I then started the firmware update, after backing up the phone using Kies.
Halfway through the update, Kies popped up a message saying something went wrong and that I had to unplug the phone, take out the battery and reboot. Odd, I thought as the phone was telling me to not doing anything. I waited a minute, nothing further happened, so I did this. Then I got the Black Screen of Death with the phone, the dots and the computer screen.
Crap!!! I thought, I managed to get into Download mode, and reflash it using what I believe was an official ROM using Odin. I then rebooted, and found that it STILL had the data on it and it STILL was doing the force close. At least I had it back to "working" though so I was mildly happy.
I then did a factory reset using the menu system, erased the USB storage (there is no external SD card in her phone) and rebooted, still force closing but prompting me to setup again. Weird. I went through the setup slowly, as every second or so a force close would popup, then when I completed the setup (which still had the wifi settings, account settings etc in it) the System Setup crashed with Force Close. I then rebooted and got to the Home Screen, but still crashing.
I rebooted and used the recovery screen to clear the cache and factory reset, despite the warnings I will lose everything, nothing was wiped.
I tried to update using Kies again but it tells me that the firmware/device is not supported. I am now trying to see if I can use Odin to install a Kies supported firmware. So that I can then try an update using that again.
Anyone got any suggestions, at present, my thoughts are, I was going well within the realms of warranty up until I reflashed it using Odin to try and get back in as I'd only used Kies to update and the issue "just started happening" without my missus doing anything.
There are no signs of damage on the phone and she tells me it was just sat on her desk all day.
So, my question is, what now? I'm of the opinion based on the above that if I can't reflash a warranty supported Kies update, then maybe a custom ROM will be worth a shot to see if its a hardware failure or if its software. I just have never had an issue like this with my HTC Desire and I've ran many custom ROMs and standard ROMs on it.
I do have the .tmp file of the update Kies downloaded, and I also have a Binary folder which has some file inside a couple more folders but its not a .tar or a .zip because when I try renaming it (after a copy) it won't open.
So, suggestions on a postcard, thanks if you got this far through this nightmare. All help massively appreciated.
Edit: it appears to be the same issue as this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822238
I'll try some of their suggestions. Today I also did the *2767*3855# today which I found after a bit more searching. Same problem after a reboot. Force close and data still there.
I've tried and tried again to do various solutions for this, I've even ran a logcat using adb to see if I can see the problem. I suspect its a Dalvik Cache issue in that its unable to write to it for some weird reason.
I've downgraded it to Froyo following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100906
It now detects in Kies and offers me a firmware upgrade. I suspect it will die again though if I try due to this Dalvik problem.
Wiping cache does not wipe the cache. Everything still appears to be there on reboot as mentioned above.
Here is a copy of the LogCat with Java errors all over it: http://leenukes.co.uk/downloads/logcat1.txt (its quite long)
I guess nobody knows. Today I will speak to Orange to try and get it fixed or replaced.

We've been told it is beyond repair. We will see what they say when we go back into the shop. Its still in warranty so I don't see why they won't replace it.

I have a friend with a Galaxy S from Orange Romania and suddenly the phone kept showing Force Close on every App. He had 2.2.1 if I remember right. He whent with the phone to an Orange Shop and they only do a factory reset but data was not wiped.
So what i have done for him:
- start the phone in Download Mode
- start Odin with repartition check and XXJVT (2.3.5) firmware with 3 files (code, phone and CSC) + pit file .512
- after reflashing the phone does have all tha data, so i resarted in Recovery Mode and done a Factory Reset and a Cache Wipe
- i flashed Speedmonde Kernel k16.10 and do again from Recovery Mode a Factory Reset, Cache Wipe and Davlick Wipe.
On reboot the phone was CLEAN. No force closes for a week now.
Sorry for my English hope it helps!

Sound advice there mate, other thing I would have done is in recovery mode before the ODIN flash I would have format sdcard, making sure you have removed BOTH the external sd and the sim card, as it can wipe them as well.Then flash through ODIN as per instructions above.
Using JVT I would flash either speedmod or semaphore 2.1.1 which I personally use.
Happy flashing!!
turns out it was water damage and some parts corroded.
Its going to be claimed for on insurance.

Hello all,
the phone came back from repair yesterday, yay!
the phone now however, doesn't appear to lock onto a mobile signal for very long. Boooo!!!
After sending off for repair using insurance, we got the phone back yesterday but it now appears to be broke in another way. It won't lock on to a mobile signal, wireless is fine but data network and sometimes just mobile signal is patchy and keeps dropping.
I've just reset it to factory defaults, same problem. What I did notice, which is odd is that since it came back from repair, its now unlocked and I can put another networks SIM card in it, same issue there too so I know its the phone now.
I'm going to scour the forums to see if anyone else had/has issues like this, it is running the latest firmware now and a full wipe really did fully wipe it this time, as opposed to last time with its issues due to water damage. One step forward, two steps back?
Its going back to the insurance company. Especially as Orange were suggesting that we pay £70 for a new handset.
Absolute fool I had on support today, yesterday I at least had someone sensible.

Sounds like a modem issue, where the techs at Orange put in the wrong modem for your firmware. I did the same thing when I upgraded from Froyo to Gingerbread.
Alternately, it could be a broken external antenna connection as a result of the corrosion from the water damage. Google "no signal fix" and look for a site that ends in .uk
Just a thought for others who come across this problem.

So I had some escapades today, I had my SGS running jellybean, then I tried to change the screen density and bang, bootloop. I panicked and after some odin fiddling managed to get it booting Darky using odin. I was in a room with no signal at the time so I thought nothing of not having any signal, even so I then went ahead and used recovery to reinstall my Jellybean rom since that's a bit nicer than the 2.3 Darky.
Long and the short of it is, I can search for networks in my options and it will find them, but when I tell it to connect to one it says "Can't connect to this network right now. Try again later"
I have tried later and surprise surprise it didn't work. I have tried installing a different radio, clearing the dvalik cache and fixing permissions as well as a few other things. Please can anyone suggest something, this seems to be a very uncommon scenario and it's stressing me out that I can't find any solutions.

i am having this same problem on all cyanogenmod 7,9,10. i have tried many radio and modem flashes. i can scan and see networks, but i can never connect to them.
have you made any progress?
Problem is EFS folder which tends to do with IMEI.
To fix it you need to copy the backup EFS folder from your SDCARD to the root of your device. (/)
If you don't have a backup you'll have to ODIN back to stock and re-root....etcetera

thx
thank you for the response. I put it back to stock lastnight before bed so i will give this a try.
i have the gti9000m from bell in canada. I updated it through kies to 2.3.3 gingerbread and it all went badly. It would boot up and load to the os be on for a bit then reset. It turned out to be wifi problem, running it on airplane mode stopped it from rebooting. Then if i tried to turn on wifi it would quickly reboot.
So then i tired all the cyanogenmods, which worked it stopped rebooting all the time. however the wifi would connect and work for about a minute then it would drop. doing the
1.turnOn gps
2.turnOn wifi
3. turnOff gps
this would let the wifi work again for about a minute. I tried all the wifi fixer apk, and a bunch of wifi.zip mods, and then ping the router gateway constantly, none solved this problem. Very annoying because i need the wifi working for develpoment of apps. I have spent a great many hours on this problem. lots of people seam to have this problem but no solutions have wokred for me.
So, my questions are....
1. does your wifi work?
2. how the heck do i get mine to work?
back to stock
After going back to stock then upgrading connecting to network operators is fine.
wifi is still broken though
Hey everyone, so I just recently upgraded my Note 4 from KK to LP, but during the process, I had to flash the Baseband and modem before I flashed the LP ROM. I then flashed the ROM after I did that, and ended up with no network... I'm still able to make calls ONLY when I'm connected and close enough to the WiFi, texting is still fine I believe. So then I tried going through the process of downgrading to see if that would relieve the problem of my network issue, but it still isn't even working. Even after doing the process in reverse, flashing the baseband and modem before flashing my ROM.
I'd like to add that I did take apart my phone because my screen needed replacing, so I took apart my phone to see if I made my signal cables loose, they were, but then I popped them back in again, turned on my phone to see if that was the issue, and it still doesn't work, as well as my hardware back button doesn't work anymore so I have been using a nav bar to access my multi-window app.
I have tried flipping my signal cables, going from LP to KK, KK to LP, and reinstalling the firmware...
Edit: Whenever I factory reset in the stock recovery, I get an " Error:failed to mount /preload (no such file or directory)

You need to Odin stock firmware from Samsung, this will fix what you borked.

I've tried 2 fresh downloads of the stock firmware and it hasn't worked, but I will just download the file straight from Samsung this time to see if that could fix the problem. My new signal antennas I ordered from ebay are on the way and should arrive tomorrow. I'll then try that if this troubleshoot doesn't work because I don't have any 4gLte network at all, and it only pops up randomly and at certain areas I drive. I'm constantly moving and I could never have a stable connection, no calls, no text messages till I'm connected to the wifi:crying:
Edit #2: So I have installed new signal cables, and still not getting any 4G/LTE Network. I have constantly checked on my wires to see if it does anything to the network, but it doesn't. Still able to make calls on Wi-Fi only ): And I have used Odin to try and revert back to stock fully and no luck..
