Rooted stock 2.3.3 extreme instability problems - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

About a month ago I was running cog5v2 but kept having problems with my phone not ringing and getting media, Android, and wssyncmlnps failures. I couldn't take it anymore so I went to I897UCKF1 and then rooted. That's it. Initially I didn't have any problems but after a week my phone freaked out and i'm back to where I started with the same failures.
maybe this will help but it looks like the reason my phone isn't ringing is because it can't access media inside my phone. If I try to select a ringtone the phone reboots.
Thanks so much for any help possible,
Kraig

Try kh3?
10 char

The kf1 build was pure crap, full of random reboots and charge bugs. The new ke3 is full of redemption. The devs here finally have something decent to work with, so give them shot.

I'm running KH3 and its very stable, much better than kf1.

I'll have to give one of the other builds a try.
hopefully I'll get to it tonight.
Thanks, Kraig

[Q] Galaxy S GT-i9000M Wake Delay

I've had this problem on pretty much any Froyo build I've installed (tried Doc's, Darkys, etc).
When I press a button (power or home) to wake the phone up, I get a 10 second delay before the lock screen appears. The only time I don't get this delay is when the phone is charging: in that case, it wakes up instantly.
I tried using SetCPU, but it didn't make any difference for me.
I've followed the install steps to a T, and I still get this. This never happened on my Captivate (I have both), and I've flashed numerous ROMs without any problems on the Captivate.
Any thoughts?
As a side note, the ROMs are usually very fast and smooth. I'm currently on Darky's Legendary Steel ROM, v4.0 and aside from the wake up lag, the ROM is very smooth and fast, and this is without having applied any lagfix (used his SpeedMOD version). This is what makes the delay I'm experiencing all the more confusing.
Its a kernel bug, although I thought all the devs had it fixed on froyo.
Try another kernel

Thanks I'll give that a shot. Do you have a particular kernel you know for a fact doesn't have that bug?
Try one from hardcore

Tried two from Hardcore, neither of them have fixed the problem. I'll keep trying others.
Does a stock rom do this?

No, stock ROMs work just fine.

I was posting from my Captivate, but this issue is with my i9000. I have both phones.

Continuum v5 b4 reboot

Just wondering if anyone else is having the same issue. Every once in awhile my cappy reboots straight to the boot ani. Wondering if it isn't the kernel. Still I love this rom anyone else having the same issue?

My bad. Beta 3

It's the kernel I've seen people post about reboots
What you are experiencing is called a "hot reboot" the phone itself doesn't reboot just the os.
+1
I'm having issues all over the place - hot reboot is one of about 5 or 6 I've noticed on the last couple of days. Just flashed v5 from v2.3 and I'll be going back ASAP.
Thanks studacris. I thought maybe I did something wrong. No way im going back though. Gb on the cappy is great. Again thanks to all.

I had the same issue before. I wiped user data and rebooted. That seemed to fix the issue. I figure when in doubt...clear and reboot.

What other problems are you having? I'm running Beta 3 as well (I missed when they put up the download link for RC1, now I have to wait until they fix whatever problems there are with it.) and I'm not having any issues whatsoever. Battery life is great as well, which was my only real gripe with CM7.
I was on RC3 and now 5.1, and I haven't had any such problems. I was running another ROM (not Continuum, which I will not name) before, which suffered from terrible sleep death. About every other day, it would not wake up from sleep at all. I had to pull the battery to get it to work again. I have had NO such problems with Continuum at all.
Oops. Posted too soon. Continuum 5.1 was extremely laggy. Tap something and the screen blanks out before the app comes up. That's bad lag. Also, it completely crashed on me about 4 times in a couple of hours.
I just flashed 5.2, and it seems to be better. However, icezar1 says the problem was with TW4, but I'm using Launcher Pro. I hope these problems don't persist.
Well, 5.2 was almost as bad as 5.1. I installed the previous version of the kernel (Talon 0.1.4) and all was well. Some kind of high memory freeing something or other. Then today Cezar released 5.3 which is even better. This is a great ROM.

[Q] Gingerbread 1-3 sec call answer delay!?

Hello all,
I have been trying several Gingerbread ROM's lately (JVK/JVB, both, stock and custom). All of them seem to have call answer delay. That means when I answer the call, other person can't hear me before 1-3 seconds. This is really annoying.
I have read a lot of GB ROM threads and it seems that its not reported much. How can it be? Making phonecalls should be essential when we are talking about phone.
Or maybe I have done something wrong or just tried wrong ROM-s?
Please post here with which ROM-s you don't have this issue!
Thank you !
I have stock jvb and the same problem. It is really annoying. Is it possible to use another phone.apk that wouldn't have this problem?
Looks like i'm not the only one ...

I confirm that I have the same problem with JVK.

It's most definitely a Gingerbread issue as other phones (on 2.3.3 and even 2.3.4 apparently) are affected.
It baffles me that Google would let such a bug unfixed for so long. In my opinion it's a very critical issue that needs to be resolved ASAP.
Custom ROM (DOC's) and same problem here...

Bloody annoying!
Also on custom Rom (Cold) and same ****.

Try searching in market: call delay patch

On GoaTrip 1.7 & 1.8, also on stock, but even on Juwe 4.1 & 4.2 - exactly the same issue.
It clearly is a Gingerbread thing. Not sure it rests with Samsung, it could be from great Google itself.
Already tried "Call delay patch". Din't help much
I have the same problem on JVB, DebusROM. It lasts for 1 second and it's really annoying, damn it
Had this problem on every GB I tried. That is one of the reasons of my return to Froyo.
Doc's beta - same thing.

Same here (SGS with JVB)

This is a reported and known bug in Gingerbread.
It is already under inspection by Google devs, so there is no need to say "same here". It won't change anything.

Microphone DIES in the middle of a call!

This is an extremely annoying issue! 95% of calls are "dropped" because people suddenly can't hear me anymore! I can hear them, but after a few seconds they cant hear me... Anyone else having the same issue? Any possible fix perhaps? I haven't found a single reference anywhere.
Also, would this be a modem related issue? Maybe flashing another one would help? If not the modem, what then?
I have a rooted captivate with stock froyo. I've been through the cognition froyo kernel, speedmod and overstock. I also know that the problem stands in cognition 4. The problem has been there since purchase. I bought it from ebay and do not live in the States, so going through AT&T is not an option.
Thanks in advance!

I've recently started having this as well intermittently after about 5 minutes on a call.
I'm on Mosaic V, Jk4 modem, was also happening with Kc1. I just updated to DC 3.0 kernel last night, so we'll see.
Personally I'm thinking AT$T is 'upgrading' the network, but is pretty annoying issue.

Thanks for the reply! I'm from South America... no AT&T here... I believe it must be Captivate related... Anyone else having this issue?

Since u r running a stock, rooted froyo... u could try the latest i897 modem, KF1.
I know it is from the leaked i897uckf1 gingerbread firmware, but u could give it a try. Other than that it may be ur network or a hardware issue.

Happens to me quite a bit. Took me a while to realise the screen wasn't sleeping and my face was pressing the mute button
So now when three other person starts saying "hello?" I always check my screen...always muted.
Maybe your issue, maybe not. Good luck!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I'll try other modems, but somehow I don't think that'll do it...
And I'll keep an eye out on the mute thing, although that can't be it either, since it happens while I'm on speaker as well... I used to try using the speaker and keeping the screen alive and it would still happen...
Anyone else?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
In case anyone might ever find this info useful, Cognition 5 v2 fixed this. I am now on the ICS rom from team ICSSGS and the problem remains gone. It was probably the modem in the different roms that did it...

try another kernel or phone.apk, i dont think it's modems problem

Break out. Wifi lags like crazy. 4g/3g works fine. Help?.

It doesn't seem to matter what kernel I'm using. When Trying to go to a site like google it will freeze up to 30 seconds before it starts to load But only on wifi. Anyway to fix this?. Thanks.
I think it has been that way for maybe a year, ever since the zv9 update last July. I've tried both stock zv9 and Broken Out multiple times during that time and both of them have had issues like that. I'm going to try one more time and only install a bare minimum of apps to prevent laggy behavior. Of course, it's not going to be a phone anymore, but a low power server (Servers Ultimate app).
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2
A low powered server?. Hah techy.
now that kinda makes sense because I think my kernal was originally V8 when I checked it and it didn't do that before. Can we use a V8 kernel with break out?. Also do you know anyone that has one?.
Also if you do figure out how to stop it on that front please let me know.
Is a v8 kernel anywhere?. I would suppose it would be high sought after sense it didn't have this issue.
If you flash the zv8 TOT with LGNPST, you will have a stock zv8 kernel, but also stock ROM. I feel like mtmichaelson used the original Broken Out v1 thread and changed the OP and links when he updated it to zv9. I am not sure if BO 1 is there anymore. That would also be zv8. I don't recall anyone making a flashable zv8 kernel.

Coool. So this should fix the wifi?.
Not sure. I have had lag all around, not just on WiFi.

Zvb has seemed to fix the data/WiFi lag. At least for me.
