I look for some lock screen and I tried a one from general themes forum.
Maybe the resolution is not ok for my Galaxy i9000 and now I cannot unlock my phone...
I use a Galaxy I9000 with last MIUI Mintberry 1.12.25 with Glitch Kernel
The lockscreen is Reveal V2 (find here)
I already tried:
all way to unlock the screen
pull everythings (lock, call and msg) but the walpaperscreen arrive at middle of screen and stop... then come back!
connect to pc but I cannot see the phone root...
format only system (I don't know why, just tried!) but I had boot loop
(before that I made a nandbackup and come back)
make a factory reset: ok but I lost all data (msg and other...)
My first question is: is there a system to delete the theme and restore to standard?
If not I have an idea:
make a factory reset
copy a MIUI theme flashable in cwm in phone root
make a restore of all in cwm
flash the theme from cwm
The second question is: is there a MIUI Theme flashable in cqm?
Thanks very much for your help!
I post here the solution, maby could be useful for other people!

You can unlock your screen manually pressing volume Up + back at the same time... unless you have a very old version in which this doesnt work, then you need to reinstall the rom wiping data/cache and all that stuff...

If this will help you, say thanks to sotodefonk here
This worked for me, press volume up and back button, hold it and it unlocks allowing you to go into the themes and change it - pronto!

ok so i did the one click root method tonight... so after i flashed clockwork and downloaded the cyanogen mod rc1 it told me to do a back up and reboot phone.. it rebooted and it goes into the boot animation screen.. it does the regular X color of the nexus then turns to the blue x .. after a few blue x's it stops then acts like it resets and goes back to the regular color, then back to the blue one..
it repeats itself over and over again.. been doin it for quite some time now.. like over three hours.. i pulled the battery and tried again, same thing..
im really really concerned about my phone now..
is there anything i can do??
please help me.. thanks
did you do the backup? Did you wipe prior to install? Did you use Rom Manager by any chance?
yes i did a back up.. and yes i used ROM manager... BUT i just now found out where the back up was.. i got thru! im going to try another recovery image and a diff rom..
ok, Amon_Ra is the one I prefer, I used it to flash CM6 RC2 only 4 hours ago.
-Cheers, good luck
ok thank you very much! is that image in rom manager?
can you also tell me what you did please... step by step..? i never done this b4 lol
sure, its very fresh (im probably only 24 hours ahead of you since my first root)
This should work, If anyone would like to double check this please feel free, I would hate to give someone bad info to go on.
so after clockwork gave me some issue to say the least i decided to go with Amon_Ra.
1)Shutdown
2)press power button and trackball at the same time
3)use vol-up and vol-down select "bootloader" using power button to select
4)then select "Recovery"
5)should now say clockwork on the bottom(trackball for movement and select in this menu) If it does not say clockwork or you see a exclamation mark in a triangle, you gave bigger problems then i can help you with
6)select wipe
7)select data, cache, and dalvik-cache to wipe So long as you only select those three options your sd card will remain ok and untouched
8)once done go back to main clockwork menu
9)select backup/resotore (or something similar) and hit restore nandroid(or similar)
10) if it asks you to pick which backup select the right one (you should only have one)
11)once done (and you get no errors) go back to clockwork menu and hit reboot, it should boot into your previous rom before you tried CM.
While here back in the working rom, make sure the end of your baseband version ends with "4.06.00.12_7" (menu > settings >about phone)
First go to the bottom of rom manager and hit "Flash Alernate Recovery" It should say RA Recovery
Once its done hit it again just to make sure it flashed (it should immediatly give you a comfirmation)
Then download CM6 RC2 (rom manager wont let you since it doesnt have clockwork anymore) go here and download the latest verions of CM and the google addon. Just download them to the sdcard.
Then reboot the phone in recovery:
1)Shutdown
2)press power button and trackball at the same time
3)use vol-up and vol-down select "bootloader" using power button to select
4)then select "Recovery"
5)should then say Amon_Ra on the bottom (if it does not or instead goes to exclimation triangle,boot back into regular and try flashing Amon_Ra again) (within this menu the trackball is now used to select and move through the menu)
6)since your current version is not working we wont backup, but normally you will select backup and do a nandroid backup
7) Instead of backing up go to wipe
8) wipe the data,cache, and dalvik cache. So long as you only select those three options your sd card will remain ok and untouched
9)go back (should be vol-down, should say at the top)
10) go to flash from sdcard
11)select the CM6 zip first (should ask for confirmation)
12)once done and no errors flash the google apps zip (also ask for confirmation)
13)once done go back to Amon_Ra main menu, and click reboot now
14)Enjoy CM

That's why you need to see if your baseband number ended with "4.06.00.12_7" , if your baseband does not end with that number, then you will have to update your radio, something i have not done yet, and because of this I ask that if your baseband does not end with that number that you do not follow the rest of the steps. The steps leading up to you checking the baseband will reflash you back to how you were before trying to flash CM so you will have a working phone. However if your baseband is that number, ("4.06.00.12_7" ) then you will not have to do anything to the radio and you can continue the steps ignoring the radio altogether.
Also would any person more knowledgeable then I like to check my previous post to make sure it looks ok before this person does anything?
lol i did it, dont worry... it worked thanks man
cool man, good luck

Hello All,
I've just started looking into rooting my lovely new Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000, and i've stumbled upon a slight problem, being that its an Austrlian phone, (also known as continental) i remember having this problem with my HTC Dream a few years back, and i was only able to root it with continental software or it would brick, which it almost did.
I'm just asking whether anyone knows of a rooting guide, prefferably on XDA that works for 'continental' Galaxy S's, or does the whole thing not matter and i'm just being a big girl by not trying any old root.
BTW. i have looked and havent found anything that says the root will only work for continental Galaxy's. This probbaly means that all firmware works with this phone, better safe than sorry.
Thanks,
Ashley.
Hi Ashley,
I'm in Australia too, and I got my SGS from optus, I rooted it with one click lagfix, it's very safe , you can get it from the market
thx
Easy Root for Galaxy S i9000
Where do you get the "OneClick Lagfix Root" from (which "Market") and is it easy to accomplish. Everthing I have read on here scares me ****less! I cant afford to brick my phone, but it is so damn slow and freezes/crashes regularly. It has been updated to Froyo, but no better! I dont see any improvements to the phone at all!! Is there a fix that a non-technical user can actually use? Most of the language used in these forums is just jargon to most people. Why use Android at all if this the problems you get. If Rooting the phone is supposed to be so easy, why isn't there an app or a software download readily available?
Please Help.
use SuperOneClick v1.7 to root and unroot ur device.. its the safe and easy
search in xda
Hey raycee63, Did you just root the device and update? or did you install a custom rom?
I just finished installing a custom rom on my GF's galaxy and its running alot smoother now. There seem to be alot of issues with the stock firmware.
Once you have rooted the device you can install "Rom Manager" by ClockworkMod in the normal app market (free or paid your choice) and then select
Flash ClockworkMod Recovery.
The next step is the tricky part sometimes.
You can find a list of custom roms in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=886000
Download the one of your choice and place onto your internal SD card.
I would suggest All In One Edition by Developer: Spike_M
I have just used that and its running very well.
Remember this will completely wipe your phone so ensure all contacts are backed up to gmail and you can use a number of apps to backup your SMS's, APNs, and Apps.
I use:
SMS Backup & Restore
APN Backup & Restore
AppAsst
Once backed up Open Clockwork recovery mod and hit Reboot into recovery.
Now I think its best to wipe first before installing the rom.
Using the volume keys to move up and down and the back arrow as enter
select Wipe data /factory reset and wipe cache partition
next select install zip from sdcard. Browse to where u copied the file and select it.
it should say completed.
Then go back and hit reboot system now.
The phone will take a long time to startup as it needs to format the cache i believe.
But once it has it should be like a new android.
Then go on the market and reinstall appasst or find the file in the files app and reinstall it then restore all your apps ect.
If the phone hangs and the boot logo and doesnt start after a long long time. (more than 10 mins) may need to wipe the cache and data again.
U can do this by holding the power button to shutdown and when u start back up enter the "recovery mode" (Hold Volume up + Home + Power) and selecting apply update.zip and you should see the same options as before just wipe and try again.
Still Fails? Try a different rom or redownloading it. you can copy it to your phone by selecting mount in the recovery mode and plugging in the usb cable.
I had no end of trouble figuring it out but I hope this makes sense.
As per normal please dont blame me if you do happen to brick your phone. I have tried this myself and it has worked perfectly.
Good Luck

dafuq did i just read
i don't get it. could you please explain a bit more?
like which rom did you flash, errors detail, etc.
get into recovery if you can and do a wipe data - factory reset, maybe could that help you, if doesn`t, pull up battery, get it into download mode again (volum down & home button & power button) then try reflash another rom
ah sry.. ok i managed to turn it on after an hour and half.....
i used simplisity plus this new rom,,and with broodromconf tried install new theme. and after resetart phone enterd bootloop,so i tryed reflash it wih odin KQ1 stock rom. but after stock rom was installed there wehere a lot of application error like "sorry! google.android.sms stoped working or google.upload stoped working" and coud not press any key or anything so i remove battery and after that, phone did not want to turn on,,,,ok i now i can turn it but i am getting this errors so what to do.
You should do exactly as chasemyass said. that should fix your problem.
maybe some content of broodrom configurator doesn't fit with Simplistic Plus. Just be more careful.
btw, clear dalvik cache first if you going to flash new rom.
requires dedoex and zipal...think simplistic plus have that...put that a side. i turn it on . flash feamod recovery and did factory reset and looks like it works now.. thx guys...
I can never fully guarantee that broodROM Configurator is compatible with all ROMS. Since it's actually made for broodROM it includes a method of installing the files as it would work on broodROM. Cranium & Stock ROM works tho.
and just format all partitions then reflash with odin and you will be fine
Rule #1 on using the configurator: ALWAYS MAKE A CWM BACKUP!
Hi,
I am using Galaxy Note N7000 for the past 1 year. (OFFICIAL ROM)
I am facing a strange issue since the day I bought this phone... The screen goes black suddenly (this could happen even if the phone is not touched for 3 to 4 hrs. Don't know why this happens) and freezes. If i press any button , the screen will not wake up. During this time, if someone calls me then I will not get any ring, but the other party who calls me gets the ring tone that my phone is ringing. The only way to bring up my phone is , i need to press the power button still the phone reboots.
I tried factory reset twice (both gui mode and the other with Volume UP+HOME+power button)
I tried Wipe cache memory many times.
Pls let me know .. how to get rid of this issue. Should I need to use some other rom. If so pls advice.
I am ready to do any thing to get this phone to work properly.
Regards,
Dennis
It could be a motherboard issue.
Ahh this is simple, this is when your phone just goes to sleep! This can be configured, by changing your kernel! if you're on stock this happens a lot! so Change your kernel it should help a lot! I prefer speedmod or C.O.H ! They may solve this issue! it's not a board issue, don't be worried! and try Good ROMS! not the stock!
Hit Thanks!
thanks

Can you pls let me know exact ROM, which I can use it for better performance. If possible help me with tutorial link too... As I am amateur with this flashing things.. I have seen some videos , but still don't have any hands-on experience.
THis is very simple brother! First you need to have a SD Card, and download Philz kernel and install via Recovery(Volume UP+ Home+ Power) and you need to be on jellybean then it is helpful! or to be on a safer side, download odin and flash the philz or speedmod odin files! they will get you CWM Recovery and Root!
But first I recommend using a kernel if that doesn't help! then Flash a ROM!
I gone through many links... and not able to clearly find what is the philz kernal.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191
Where to download the kernal.. ??
Should I need to take backup and factory reset the phone before doing this activity. Later can I use Kies to restore the backup??

Download stock rom, flash it, when device start ( turn on), boot it to recovery,and wipe data and cache (wipe everything), rebot the device
do this, and reply
pocket neo
I have done that!!
BT after flashing the stock ROM also there is no lock screen and power option!!
