Unsure whats going on, not even sure how long this has been going on with my phone. Not rooted...tried resetting it twice now, but still doesn't show or tell me when I have a new voicemail. Frustrating to no end, maybe a new sim card or something? I'm out of ideas & hoping someone can give some insight, thanks.

Are you sure you're getting NEW ones and not old ones?
Try SBFing? (This resets your phone back to complete defaults, even more so that doing a factory reset does)

Oh and I recommend doing it on a 32bit version of windows insetad of a 64bit. 64s seem to be harder to get working properly with RSD Lite.
And when you connect your phone, use a Back USB Port instead of a Front one, they're more reliable.

This is about as weird as it gets.
My phone won't let me hang up from a call. I try the touch screen button and the actual phone button and nothing.
Everytime I end a call, it will just stay "connected" until I hard reset the phone.
Has anyone else had this happen? And how can I fix it?

ok, in these cases its good to perform hard reset (not soft reset) if u are not afraid of setting your phone again from the beggining.
Then after hardreset u should try if its still the same, if not check it after every application that u install(u can figure out if it is some app that is causing it). If the hard reset dont help, u shoul try to flash another rom.
i agree it seems u need to perform a hard reset
but first try to remove ur sd card reboot and tell us if you still have the problem
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_Resets
go start-settings-clear storage and follow
i dont think u need another rom (especially if you happy with urs)

have you tried a hard reset, press down 2 softkeys and stick in reset button and release before letting go of the 2 soft keys. then follow on screen instructions ?
more info needed though ie can you access the bootloader, have you previously put a hard spl on your phone and if so which version.
god reading here on how to get phone back up and working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=423486 and here too
i have the version from att

From your response I'd say your best option if a hard reset does not work would be to see if you can access the bootloader screen ( press camera button and soft reset ) it looks like three colours on your phone. If you can then download an original rom for your phone and follow the instructions to place it on your phone.
Anyone have any better idea's
back in an hour let me know how you got on
That's the only conceivable idea probably. After you go into bootloader mode, flash the stock ROM and then if you have hardspl, install the custom ROM that you prefer.
Well i guess i can kiss all my #'s goodbye...you know what.....I think I want a custom rom...anyknow know where i can go to get a good one

Dont go custom yet mate, try a stock rom and get it up and running first. Then take your time to read about soft / hard spl's and radios etc before diving in with a full custom rom. Believe me its worth it to understand everything first

Please don't say Odin 1 click as it does not go 100% back to stock.
The nv_data.bin and bml3 device are not as stock. I have FFFFFFF where my unlock code used to be and my unlock code no longer works.
Master Clear and then JF6 restore doesn't change these either. I find it hard to believe there is no way to get 100% back to new.
Any ideas?

Why did you send it back? I am curious how the /EFS directory gets built - it stores the IMEI related stuff and lock code data, but it doesn't get wiped with a Odin full restore.
I would think that if you put your phone in recovery mode, there should be an option to format the internal sd card. After you do that, just do a factory reset, and then run Odin One-Click back to JF6
Edit: There's not even a need for recovery mode. Go to Settings > SD card and phone storage > and then under Internal SD card you'll see "Format SD card".

Format SD card only formats the ~14GB that acts as an SD card that the user has access to. The 2GB that makes up all the system partitions is not touched. Some of it is rewritten when you do 1 click install - but not all.
With JF6 your NV_data.bin is not created like the original and the IMEI and BT files are dated from June - so the EFS partition is never rewritten. Maybe if you delete it is recreated, but i doubt it.

I bricked mine trying to go to Froyo. They sent it back to me with JH7 so no go :/ Sorry.
did anybody try calling att if you are a att cust they will give you the code for free.
over on the i9000 forum they say when froyo first came out if you left your sim in the phone when you flashed it would relock your phone.
can anybody verify that if they goto froyo with a unlocked captivate without the sim do they still get locked.
if so it might be a measure to prevent people from messing with the beta to much

Actually I did try it. In July, they said wait 60 days. Yesterday they input my IMEI and their system told them that the phone can't be unlocked - due to AT&T exlusivity. i am in the process of escalating, but it is hard to say what will happen.
It certainly appears that it is not as simple as waiting 60 days.

I'm curious about this too...it seems that once you mod the phone in any way it's never 100% stock again. I wonder if having the SIM in when a mod is done has anything to do with it - does anyone know if the SIM can be written to and, if so, if anything is written to it during a mod?
I've tried everything possible to get this phone 100% stock again in an effort to get Kies Mini to STOP giving me the "unrecognized" error, including cleaning Windows registry and trying on my Windows XP Pro partition - no go. Something, somewhere, is providing information to Kies Mini.
---Edit---
Dumb question about writing to SIM; but question about something being written to it during a mod - if left in - still stands. Anyone?

The SIM can only hold contact data - and very limited amount. I can almost guarantee that nothing is written to the SIM card.
Is Kies not recognizing the phone is plugged in , or refusing to upgrade because it is the wrong type? Unrecognized device by keys is usually due to Samsung drivers and reinstalling them has helped me.
But it seems that the only way to revert to 100% stock is via Samsung repair service.

Hey brother, i did what u told me and im not having problems anymore. Thank you so much!
Hello guys. Hope y'all are doing fine. I'M NOT ! I've got a problem with my Mi 11. So, at first, my phone was telling me that there was too many files on it and that there was no space anymore to add more things on it. Which is okay. Then, to resolve that problem, I tried to uninstall an app which made my phone go black and then got to that ''Recovery Menu''. I tried everything ! I triedd Rebooting, so I go on Reboot but then it goes back to Recovery Menu. I tried removing the SIM card, I tried to ''Connect with MI Assistant'' but the app won't recognize my phone. I tried to go on Fastboot with the Volume and On/Off button but it stays frozen on that image of the russian rabbit. I tried holding the volume buttons while the phone was restarting, doesn't work. I tried to "Safe Mode', but it doesn't work. The volume buttons are working well. I even tried cleaning my phone to see if some dirt got stuck in it. I tried tapping on my phone. I've tried to put it in the freezer. I tried to let it lose its battery and then plug it in, still didn't work. I don't wanna lose my data... There are extremely precious things in there that I cannot afford to lose... I'm begging for help, friends ! Please help me !

You cannot perform a Backup as long as the phone is in bootloop, if the wipe works you can only recover the data saved previously.
