I've seen other people having this issue, but no fixes as of yet. Does anyone have a fix for this?
I updated my Captivate with the leaked Fugu kernel of Gingerbread. I thought everything was working fine, but it turns out that I'm not able to answer calls. When I get a call, the screen blacks out, and then the calls get forwarded to Voicemail. I can't answer the calls at all. Also, it kills any connection I have at that time, so 3G and the bars go away, and I get the circle with a line through it. Then after about 30 seconds, everything comes back, with four bars. Everything else seems to work fine, and I can make outgoing calls with no problem. Texts work great, MMS, and web.
Ideas??
Baseband: I897UCKF1
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I897UCKF1-CL273832
Firmware: 2.3.3
Build: GINGERBREAD.UCKF1
If u want to stay on the leaked stock i897uckf1, then i suggest u flash designgears Cognition Beta 2 Kernel (it's rooted of course) and if that doesn't fix the issue, then reflash the KF1 modem (or i897 modem of ur choice.)

hey Teejeaux
I have been having the exact same problem. i did gingerbread with fugu also. i had started a thread here.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1168128 .... and bumped it three times but still no answer. maybe you will get lucky and someone will shine in that knows about the problem.
i am also wondering if the problem happens because we restored contacts and messages. Teejeaux did u restore any contacts and messages using TB or from the export feature in the contacts menu if so then that might be the problem. I restored contacts on both mine and my brothers captivate and we are having the same problem.
Good Luck

and yes restoring data & apps from tibu is cause of forceclose and freeze and lot of times...
not all the time..and when u know what u r doing...so just see after the fresh install everythin works fine..then dont use tibu...
the best n the cleanest..safest way of restroing contats and sms..which i always use...
from contacts..import/export...and export to sd card..u wil hav just one vcf file..having all ur contacts in it..so u can even copy that to ur comp for future use....and restore later when u done flashin..
and smsbackup and restore app by ritesh sahu in market..its free..and it makes a backup on ur internal sd..so copy it to comp or to external sd after taking backup...later after install put that back on internal sd..and install app and restore ur sms...
and i dont use tibu to restore my apps..i always hav the apk's i use ..so i fresh install after the flash...or i download them again from market..so i never had any freeze/forceclose problem ..after any new rom flashin...
Simple troubleshooting:
If <ROM Version Here> starts acting funky (no calls, data, force closes etc..)
I would recommend flashing back to stock - I would also perform a factory reset on the device and even go so far as to format the SD Card (I know might be extreme but you know your phone is def wiped clean)
Re-flash the ROM and don't install/restore anything! Still having issues? Post it on the Q&A of <Insert Rom Name Here> forum or look to see if there is a known issue.
To me this sounds like a bad flash - or the modem didn't flash correctly.
TiBu isn't necessarily bad - but I don't try and use it to restore system data - only application backups/data as your less likely to have issues with force closing.
But... now days I have my app list paired down to just the actual apps I use - so its easier to restore the apps from the Market and restore my Angry Birds saved games
Hey everyone,
I'm testing Onecosmic's (outstanding) rom since about two weeks and discovered a bug which i can't report because of the 10 posts barrier so i'm going to put it in a Question:
How can i fix that the keyboard interface disappears while i am writing any kind of text?
To describe the problem:
Everytime i'm writing something (no matter if in the browser or sms or google maps or soemthing else) i have the problem that the whole keyboard interface just disappears after a few letters or words (that differs). Furthermore i am unable to reopen the keyboard for ~ 30 seconds.
I am on Galaxy S I9000 with Onecosmic's Rom RC3 but i already had the same problem with 2.11.
Everything else works pretty fine for me.
Sorry for bumping but i really need an answer to this. It is a major problem for me as not beeing able to write text messages really would make this rom unusable.
try to put htc keyboard and see if it works
Just flashed RC3.1 and wiped the cache afterward and now it works just fine. Don't know if the cache wipe or the new RC did the trick.

Me too I have the same problem like yours, but the thing is .. Did you come up from the darky rom as well? Or from Cm7?
mine the problem still persist.. any solution anyone?
I came from a stock 2.2 and then used a rooted kernel to install stock 2.3.6. Then i installed CWM and used it to flash Onecosmic's RC2.11 with glitch kernel at first, while later flashing RC3 and now RC3.1. Did everything like it is explained in the developers thread.
Perhaps you should just try to reflash RC3.1 and then wipe cache again.

Are you coming from DarkyROM? On ics.samsung-updates.com it says that there are some known issues coming from darky core kernel.
---------- Post added at 11:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:59 AM ----------
perhaps if you were in DarkyROM, flash a kernel other than darky core (maybe semaphore or fugumod), then flash onecosmic, it might work better.

Same issue here, but i think it will just need some more work by the dev's to fix it. I think it isn't that bad as you still can take pictures/video in high resolution.
You just have to live with it until it is fixed.
Hi wuggel,
Thx for the comment,,do find any battery issue on ur phone? I saw the other discussion having jvk modem could last more than 2 days with wifi always on..mine barely can last 24 hours with mild usage of cell,wifi and browsing
and it is back ... after 3 wonderful days of smooth typing the keyboard again disappears...
@riwntouk
my battery is also empty after ~ 24h but this hasn't changed since stock 2.2
---------------------------------
Edit:
Obviously everytime the keyboard bug appears you have to wipe cache ...
Hello World!
let me first explain my problem :
i got a GT-i9000 (Samsung Galaxy S) from my friend.
the device already installed with custom ROM (lidroid if i'm not mistaken).
problem is, many features of this sweet device is not working :
sound not working at all (no sound coming out from speakers and 3.5mm jack)
the accelerometer are inverted (tilting the phone up makes the ball on 'calibration' go right)
so i tried to install CM7, and then CM9 on this device.
but now all of the soft buttons doesn't work. (all 3 buttons doesn't work at all)
PLUS all the problems i described above.
i tried installing custom kernel for CM7/CM9
but the problem still there.
and then, i tried to install a stock ROM from samfirmware.
but i don't know what my device is from.
apparently, the box are missing too..
i already tried updating the phone software with Kies, but it always stuck at "connecting phone.."
oh, and strangely, the Baseband part of the about phone is always shown as "Unknown"..
is it has something to do with modem?
Sounds weird. I would suggest a complete reset/wipe and a flashing of a stock ROM (e.g. from Sammobile). Be sure you wipe anything, including dalvik cache and cache partition.
I think you may have a damaged I9000.
To be sure, try again flashing Samsung ROM from Samfirmware (important! with 'repartition' and 'bootloader update' options).
I recommend XXJVT 3-file.
Try to flash it to its stock ROM using your current location, if that's what you're problem, location shouldn't be a problem for now, you should try to make it work first. Then if all else fails, I think you gotta return that phone to your friend coz the ROMs you mentioned should be working properly (unless you didn't wipe your cache).

well, i want to connect my phone and update it through Kies, but the phone is always stuck at "connecting device"..
oh, and one more thing.. can changing ROM breaks the hardware of a phone?
you can use this tutorial (and files within) to flash to a stock rooted rom + CWM .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494493
If you wanna keep it stock just dont flash the ICS rom they're talking about in the topic ,use odin and thats it .
edit : changing roms cant break the hardware (as far as i know,unless ofc there are some features that force hardware over their limit ,for example if you force the audio volume too much your speakers will start making noises when playing music) ,though it can rarely brick the phone (if you rly mess up or odin crashes while flashing )

yes. this is exactly what i do after i installed CM9.
i forgot to add this on my first post..
um, so now my device is using i9000XWJVZ. and the baseband is still showing "unknown", and those 2 problems i described above are still there..
any ideas?
baseband version = modem (if im not mistaken) . flash another modem maybe? i have baseband version I9020AUCKF1 (nexus modem)
hmm...we should make a test to make sure the hardware is working allright. Download Andro Sensor and see what accelerometer sensor says (do this with all roms).

Hello, I'm using Semaphore + CM10 JB for few weeks (installed with your support).
However I have a problem. The stability. My phone likes to resets byself, even few times per day. It happens irregularly. What's interesting, sometimes phone resets to the CWM. Sometimes resets and backs to work, sometimes totally offs the phone (and i need to pull out the battery) or freeze on cyanogenmod start screen (but not on normal start, only when resets)
Sometimes it happens when i'm using the phone, sometimes not. He likes to do that when i'm sleeping (for example, goes to the CWM and discharge the battery by whole night on full bright).
And much smaller, but maybe important issue: when the phone starts, shows the message Warning! A problem was detected with your device. Your device IMEI number is invalid. And invalid IMEI number could cause network issues including the inability to call emergency numbers.
Firstly I installed CM10, i had the problems with the network, but after @xsenman's help (reinstall with older ROM before flashing CM10) everything works correctly and i can see IMEI too. I made an EFS backup in that old ROM, should i use that? This message doesn't intrude me, but i'm just thinking if this could be connected with reseting problems. My SGS works really nice, but that one issue is really annoying.
100 views and really no one can help?
Come on, i feel so lonely
I'd recommend flashing a clean GB stock, restoring your IMEI, flashing CM9 twice and then flashing CM10 ROMs (if you want them lol). Always be sure that you wipe your phone after installs.
Sent from my Gameboy Color
thanks for your answer. However, maybe it's not a ROM problem? Maybe some application makes an issue. Is there any log where i can check that?
That IMEI stuff definitely isn't app-caused. I can only repeat my statement above. Don't worry about data, you can backup everything using Titanium Backup and SMS Backup+.
Btw: What ROM are you on?
Best regards
Sent from my Gameboy Color
True, IMEI not, but it's not a real issue for me. Actually, i'm absolutely satisfied of my i9000 (maybe flashlight absence, but it's hardware). Everything works fine, but reseting problem makes me nervous when I use the phone as car dvr or for endomondo ect.
I use Cyanogenmod 10, one of october's nightly versions.
So basically you don't want to change anything but you want us to help you? Sorry, that's not the way a community works.
You didn't understand me. My problem is phone reseting. I want to find the reason of the issue. Because without it, i can install new software and still have the same problem.

Since when has this problem occurred? I doubt an app makes a phone reset itself.
Edit: I looked around your post history and you seem to have posted in the semaphore thread. Maybe something is wrong with the kernel?
Sent from my GT-I9000
Thanks for your answer. It's hard to say because I've flash a ROM and out of hand I installed the applications. It's the worst type of problems, because it doesn't happen instantly or regularly. Actually since i wrote the topic, i didn't see the problem, however i saw two-three times the attention about IMEI, so i think, the phone resets, but not seen.
/// amerkiller: you are using i9000 too, could you recommend me any other ROM? Probably I will need to install a ROM and wait, two-three days and check if the ROM makes any issues.
/// maybe, but how can i check it? It looks like work nice, my question in Semaphore's thread was about the features
I use Remics-JB, you can try it out if you want a Samsung touchwiz feel, and apps from the S3.
Slimbean if you want a minimalist ROM.
Hopefully, the problem will disappear.

Edit: regarding the kernel, you can flash Devil and see if the problem persists.

Ok, so i want to reflash my i9000. So - i have JVU's gingerbread ROM, is that correct stock ROM? Should i make the WIPE here? I'm not sure about restoring IMEI. Should i do that in GB's temporary ROM or (as I think) later in JB's? Of course, earlier I need to backup the efs folder with IMEI so i think i should do that in GB's and restore it in CM10 (or in Slimbean which I want to test). And one more doubt. You said flashing CM9 twice. Why is that? And how can I do that if i'm installing the ROM in CWM?

You can find tutorials about flashing to stock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881
Flashing the stock ROM will recover your IMEI number if you currently don't have it and will wipe your personal files. Backup your IMEI while you're on GB and if you lose it, then restore it. Fyi I never lost my IMEI, it's not common. You should flash JB / cm10 twice, ICS/cm9 should be okay after one flash. Remember to wipe if the instructions say so.
When you'll attempt to flash cm10 in recovery, you'll get a warning about partition change. You'll have to chose to flash second time, this time it should work and the phone will reboot into a bootloop. Pull out the battery and enter recovery and flash cm10 again. This time it well install and reboot successfully.

Hi, thanks for your interest
Two days ago I made a re-flash Stock > CWM > CM9 (twice) > CM10
Attention about IMEI doesn't longer appear
I've installed apps. The phone has resets for a one time when I was using some app. It is not a big problem for me if SGS makes that from time to time (maybe some apps are not adapted to the JB very well). However today I used him to record my drive (dailyroads voyager) and when i tried to stop the recording, he doesn't backs to life (just I needed to pull the battery out) and video file was corrupted. But when I was getting back to home it worked correctly. I have no idea why that's happen.

Restarts shouldn't happen that was some unusual circumstance. The video problem is weird, post here if it happens again, lets hope its just bad luck.
Ok, I'll look on it.
I have one other question and maybe you will know.
Call recording. There are two options for use this feature. Simple MIC recording apps and 'two-way call recording' which is much better, however it needs kernel with handle of it. I didn't find anyone for SGS, so I want to use MIC recording. There are many apps in Google Play. However any of them makes 0kB files of record on JB's CM10. When I was using gingerbread it didn't worked too however files were good, but the second side of call didn't hear me.

this could help you. if not it would be better to re-install the rom after you have installed the stock rom + root kernel.
revert it to stock, re-root it, then install whatever ROM, then see, it solved it when i had that problem :fingers-crossed:

I see one or two possible causes of your problem:
1. Kernel more than 391MB usually breaks the 720p video and Gallery, make sure the bigmem patch of kernel is not activated.
2. Flashing directly from GB to JB usually causes post-installation problems, one of which maybe is your problem. Developers recommend a gradual ugrade of Android system to avoid any problems. From GB flash a CM9 ICS first then finally the JB Rom you wanted. In this way, you will surely get a trouble-free Rom.

well i seen some posts about copyng camera firmware, i tried that. but next problem was... that this copy failed. idk why, maybe i cant in stock ?
pls someone help me!
I think I have exactly the same problem.
It was caused by flashing Onecosmics ICSSGS RC 4.2 to CM10 Stable. (i have to admid the camera was semi broken at ICSSGS already, crashed somewhere in an hour after booting, had to reboot phone to get it running again, but well it was working...)
Camera has never worked since. (stock sammy gave me a black screen when opening the camera, making a picture just made it freeze. CM10 just gives gallery crashes upon opening. Tried nandroids, cleared cashes, tried stock sammy firmwares. I wanted to do a Samsung Kies repair, but i was unable to find stock firmware for my country...
Flashing the camera firmware might work. It didn't for me, but i have heard it could be the solution.
Can you see if you front camera is working (install instagram and make a front camera pic, will evade the gallery has crashed problem).
yea, my front camera works, i can take pictures and watch them later.
but my back camera doesnt work

Have the same problem for a long long time.
been flashing a lotta roms kernels etc.. nothing.
I even changed the camera (I had another GT-i9000) and nothing, which makes me believe it's something of the Motherboard
Also, if I press the screen at the top half of it.. it shuts down.
I've had no back camera for a long time either. I've flashed back to eclair, tried about 4 different cam firmwares which all flashed successfully so they said, and lots of ROMs. I gave up. Im sure it must be hardware.
Seen people posting over time about the same thing. Firmwares helped a couple of people, but lots of people ended up with a dead camera. Buying a new camera unit from eBay fixes it. I think they're about £20....
