[Q] Please help me :(

I tried to upgrade to the new 2.2 froyo and all it gave me was the JM2, I had JM1 so I did it. Then the phone started to turn itself on and off again, so I did a factory reset from the recovery menu. Now nothing works and everything pops up with force close. I can't do anything but get back to the 3br. Please, I'm sure I'm getting freaked out for no reason but it's 4am here and I've been working on it for hours trying and looking for something.

did u have a lagfix installed on your phone before u started flashing to 2.1.1 ?

Very similar issue here - used regedit hack to get 2.2 - all I got was the JM2, phone was working fine, but I did factory reset hoping to clear all the old data, after this all I get is "Sorry!, The application TwLauncher (process com.sec.android.app/twlauncher) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
I did have lag fix, but unnistaled it before upgrading to 2.2
How this could be solved ?

install via odin. Kies is a P.O.S

Got the same problem.
Installed Froyo using Kies and the registry hack. After rebooting I checked my Android Version: 2.1 Update 1. So I followed the instructions to do a factory reset. Now all I can do is boot the phone and type in my pin-code. Then there are lots and lots of popups telling me a process has stopped working ...
Can anyone help? Is odin really the only way to regain access to my phone?

Factory reset, clean cash, wipe internal sd-card

I already wiped the cache and also did a factory reset twice. When entering recovery mode I receive the error: "multisc: can not acces to /system/csc/DBT/system/"
How to wipe the internal sd card then?

I have the same problem! Have a brand new Vodafone handset (no lag fix etc.), ran the regedit patch and whilst I didn't get 2.2, I stayed on 2.1 update1 but unbranded. Was delighted to get rid of bloatware but after a factory reset, the same problem!
Using my registry settings, I flashed back to Vodafone firmware but the problem still remains

OK wiped and then even formatted the internal sd-card - did this from windows explorer whilst connected via usb.
I then did a wipe/factory reset, wiped the cache and then reboot.
Still the same problem!

I eventually got it to work
I flashed via Odin, the JPK firmware and that was stable enough to get some sleep. In the morning, I flashed JPM and then rooted and lag fixed. I took the lag fix and even the root off of it before trying to upgrade on Kies so I have no idea how that happened. I'm thinking that flashing with the new ROM is the only way to get it un-bricked after that but it's good anyway because now it has FroYo with root and lag fix even though I was originally trying to keep updates to official channels so to speak (guess I found out just how unsafe the official way is vs. the unofficial way).

Me too! Thanks for the advice, I ended up doing the same!
Only difference is I updated to JPM firmware as shown on this forum - works perfectly Likewise I would have preferred not to have to do the unofficial way - guess my warrranty is now void?
Out of interest, I found it hard to figure the difference between JPK and JPM but I seemed to conclude that JPM is a slightly more recent and technically the 'final' of Froyo?

Flashed via Odin and it started to work, finnaly.
Good question regarding formware versions - it is interesting for me also !

[Q] launcher crash after factory reset

Hello,
I have a SGS I9000 Gt from France I think.
Everything was running good. I installed a bunch of apps when I first got the phone, checking stuff out. After playing with it for a few months I now have a good idea of what apps I would like to keep.
I decided to do a factory reset so I could start fresh when froyo does come out.
I performed three button recovery and did factory reset and wipe cache partition.
Problem is when I reboot I constantly receive "The process "blank" has stopped unexpectedly. please try agian." message, and I hit force close and it just pops right back up. TwLauncher, Daily briefing, acore, and a google one.
I did notice that in the recovery mode menu I get some red text saying "multicsc : can not acces to /system/csc/XEF/system/" But when I go through the steps to reset and clear cache, it does it and gives me a message "wipe complete"
I removed battery and sim card No sd, and tried again with no luck, every time I boot now same thing, apps keep crashing.
I hope that makes sense I don't really know what to do.
So yea any help would be great!
Thank you so much for your time.

I almost have the same problem here.
I updated the firmware with Kies, using the default firware that was found by Kies.
I guess it has to be a custom made ROM made by/for my phone service provider (Bouygues, a French company).
Upon restarting, I get the same pop-up messages. Cannot close them fast enough to use anything. My phone is not usable, though not bricked.
Ps : formerly running off-the-factory custom Bouygues rom. Rooted and using OCLF or something lag fix.

I solved at least MY problem :
Do a factory reset and wipe cache AND user data. Simple as that
The answer was actually in the [Warning!!!] Do not flash... thread. I should slap myself for not looking into it first.
Hope it solves your problem too.

Thanks for the help, but how do you how did you wipe user data? Maybe I am blind but I don't see it?
I think I did that when I did the factory reset. When I do boot up however, my original unlock pattern is still set...so I don't know wtf is going on.
FIXED!!
I used Kies Registry Patcher v.1.6.0.0
then reset user data and cache WORKS GREAT AND I HAVE FROYO NOW!!

sgs gone crazy

hi there
getting straight to the problem : i got my sgs (international I9000) 3 months ago and tried to upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2 but failed many times. then i accidently flashed a vibrant rom (eugene one) in my phone and i couldn't get to dl or recovery mode so i gave it to a local store here that helped me get back to stock 2.1 but i didn't know how he did it .. probably with a jig
everything went fine and i was able to enter both modes but then NUMEROUS force closes appears whenever i open most of apps (google apps and other 3rd party apps but others like massege, phone, contacts, players works fine), can't delete or put anything in the sd card . I tried to fix it with flashing to another stock roms i even tried 2.3 , the flashes were ok but force closes kept coming. I also tried wipe data and factory reset from recovery but to no avail. also when i change settings, delete files, etc .. and then reboot everything goes back to how it was before i did the change
i read many threads that my phone internal might be corrupted from all this @*&* and i thought i would ask here before sending it to samsung hoping i would find a solution here
regards and sorry for bad english

I flashed a vibrant and captivate rom on the first day i got my SGS and promptly soft bricked it.
Was able to get it back and running though, no force closes.
I suggest backing up all your phone internal data SD data (On your computer) etc. And send it to Samsung and just replace all the data afterwards.
I'm not experience enough to aid you (Sorry) and and the problems are a little ambiguous.
Hope i have helped. Good luck getting your phone back and running again

[Q] Galaxy S i9000 won't factory reset and force closes frequently - now with logcat

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.

[Q] S3 Mini Froze alot after baseband upgrade

Dear, all
first of all, sorry for my bad english...
I have my galaxy s3 mini for a few months (i bought it on august 2013), a week ago my HH had a notification that a new ugrade available. So i tap OK, and the phone downloaded the upgrade (195 MB, if i remember correctly). When the phone succesfully updated, i check the system. I noticed that the baseband version was upgraded from i8190DXAMA2 to i8190DXAMJ1. A few days later, my phone started acting wierd. All the system apps start to crash a lot. One day the messaging dan contact app not responding, and i had to force close and reboot the phone. The other day was clock app crashing, and i had to reboot the phone.
Does anyone have same problem like me? How can i fix this? I tried to clear app data, but that didn't work. Reboot is the only way to fix this problem. And i don't want to reboot the phone every day or two. If i want to downgrade my baseband version to original, how can i do that?
and oh, my phone is not rooted. Still using stock ROM.
thanks

I'm guessing you didn't do a factory data reset after update?
Reinstall firmware using kies, after it's done, turn on the phone, do a factory reset and then setup it as you would with new phone.
Optionaly you can make a backup with KIES before the upper ster, and after doing a factory reset, restore the backup. Or just copy/paste stuff you need (music, picture, etc)

No, i didn't. The update was via OTA. Ok, i will try it and see if it works, thanks. :fingers-crossed:
