I am sure this has been asked before, but searching ia causing a FC for me. So I ask of you all, has anyone tried returning their rooted captivate? I have one that is build 1007 and I keep hearing that the gps works on build 1012 so I want to switch mine for one of those. So has anyone tried this? Does it work? Is there any risk in trying, like are they going to send me a new one, find out mine is rooted and charge me 500 for the new one? Obviously I would flash stock and if possible without rooting again, recover my imei and product code.
I don't need to hear "oh they can tell or oh just flash stock and it should be fine " I want to hear from people that have tried this or actually know something about it.

3 phones so far.
Restore to stock using ODIN 1 click, and give it back. Make sure u format ur internal SD before u restore to stock to remove any traces left on sd card.
I am 10.07 build now, and GPS works great! The refurbs u get in 10.07 too are working fine. Looks like Samsung corrected them.
Returned a phone that was previously rooted. Removed root, using olcf app. Factory reset, reformat internal sd. Had no issues

Everyday at one random point of the day it shows a message saying
"Sim card removed. Reboot the phone" I don't know why this is happening... I don't think it's a rom issue cause I had this in cognition and assonance(currently used)..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Most likely you just need a new sim card. Sometimes if they mishandled when taking them in or out it could damage the contacts.
I've seen a few cases where phones belonged to people who literally smoked and held the phone with the same hand at the same time had similar issues. There could be a great deal of tar on the card.
Other than that I would just check the internals and see if anything could be blocking a good.connection.

Can I buy a new similar card wihtout having to change my number? And I'm running the assonance rom and on the status bar it has h instead of 3g is that also caused by the sim card?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
The sim card just let's you connect.to the network. Your phone number would be the same as your previous one.
If you ate still under warranty, flash back to stock before you take it uptown to the store and have them put a new sim in as they may notice you have a custom rom and may make note.of it.

I don't have a warranty.. so is this gonna cost a lot of money??

Just go to the AT&T store, tell them you lost your phone and need a new sim card to use on a spare phone. Most of the time it's free.
Ok thanks I'll try it out as quick as possible cause my phone is like not working now..

Just got a new sim card but still have the same problem.... please help..

Did you flash a new rom on your phone with the SIM card installed in the phone?
Just tell them that you need your SIM replaced because this one is acting up. They shouldn't have a problem with that. I had mine replaced recently - there was no charge for it as well as there shouldn't be since they're a dime a dozen.

Just tell them urs is acting up, and u need a new one. They'll replace it free of cost.

Been having trouble with my phone dropping calls when it shows I have 2/3 bars. When I dial it takes a while to connect then it drops the call as soon as it connects...could this be my sim card? I have had the same card for at least three yrs. Currently I am running cog 4.1.1 with JJ4 modem. Thanks in advance...

Take it to an AT&T store, tell them you have bad reception and dropped calls. They will swap it for free.
Hold up, just before you do that.
nugget68, did you backup and restore everything when you went on to Cognition?
(i.e. you restored all your data via Titanium Backup when you first went on to Cognition).

i used TiB for my apps but did not restore system data or anything, i thought it would mess it up if i did...
Well, one quick thing I'll get you to try is...
Go into TiB and you should see 'Phone 1.0' in green text (if I remember properly, as a system file). Click into it, and press 'Wipe Data'.
It's worth a try, it helped me fix a similar issue for someone before.
I will try this and report back in a few days, thanks...

Your contacts are also stored on your sim card so you could try getting a new sim card.

Hello. I just ordered a Moto X from Motomaker and am expecting it to arrive Friday. However, I'd like to move some of my app data, like my game progress, from my old phone. My GSII which I am retiring is rooted and I have Titanium Backup. Can I copy and paste the data files from one to another? Also, could Helium work as another method of data transfer? I heard mixed reviews of it working on Motorola devices. I will probably end up rooting it, but I would like to know if I could wait or have to do it right away for TB.
I'm excited to join the Moto X community.

Yeah the migrate app was painless. Download it on old device. Fire up app on new device. Scan Barcode and phones do the rest. Pulled over all the stuff I usually back up to my computer.
