Post flash issues. - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, iv scanned the forum for hints and tips with my SGS since i got it a year ago and has always been very helpful, now iv hit a wall. I had the wonderful problem of trying to update the firmware and ended up getting bricked. So after scratching my head for a few hours and lots of huffing i sorted it. Anyway, i worked out how to flash it etc but now the phones gyro thingy wont work and i cant turn it to landscape and its now forever crashing and is now really slow. Help!?
Thanks

Feel allowed to learn and to try by youself

Try to re-flash same/different firmware with full wipe. That should fix the problem. Had same issues when were trying to downgrade from 2.3.3 to 2.2.1
Good luck.

You guys need a DUHHH smiley, i checked back to the firmware site i originally went to and discovered that i had picked what i think maybe like a universal firmware or something, scrolled back up the list and found the one for my network provider
Foo'
Thanks very much guys

[Q] Yesterday Gingerbread Update Available, Today Gone

Yesterday i started KIES and found out that there was an update available but i did not have enough time to update it so i cancelled the procedure. Now today i started KIES again again and it says that i already have the latest firmware. I am using Froyo XXJPY with Seed Mod Kernel K13C and Lag Fix enabled.
Can anyone guide me in this problem?
Seems that firmware was retired 'cause it has some bugs.
User are getting overexcited and Samsung have pulled 2.3 .
jje
Ok. Thanks a lot for your replies. I was thinking that there might be something wrong with my handset. Does this have to do something with Apple lawsuit.
Also kindly let me know which one was the pulled version so that I can flash it through Odin.

I updated over the weekend to 2.3.3 and after an initial problem with the notification bar FC on start up, (fixed it with a cache wipe and data wipe from the three button boot loader menu) everything seems fine.
Was I just lucky or unlucky to get this update.
I'm on O2 UK but I had flashed 2.2.1 from samfirmware.com with odin.
It was a pre-mature push, and I don't think they will going to launch it before lauch of SGS 2, let's wait when they roll it again :-(
The answer is provide that Google had some issues with the update and got it pulled.

[Q] alarm app interface

Hi everyone...
I'd like to ask you all help...
why is my alarm clock not showing like this anymore...?

it just shows a lockscreen type of alarm app
Thanks.
Have you applied a custom rom to it??
Maybe because of a software update... I'm on 2.3.4 it still has something similar except its no longer buttons but drag bars... this maybe because of my rom/theme though
Thanks for showing me i never really noticed, always been too sleepy
I have just tested this and read that image. I'm sure it never used to be an increasing ring on the normal alarm, only on the smart alarm... weird
I do have a custom ROM, however,I think that even in stock ROM it doesnt show me like i posted before.
But tonight, I will give it a shot and install an official ROM to see if it solves this issue.

Sorry fella i have no real clue this is my first post and i am a total noob... Still laughing from the video before registering. But heres my totally uninformed first thought, could it be that it needs to have writable sd partition, hopefully someone substantially more informed will help you out soon. I just thought id post because i noticed no one else had and youd only had one view. Lol Ive a bit of an issue myself but im a little afraid to post after the vid, even though iv'e been scouring internet for days with no answers! Lol good luck bud hope it all works out
Have you rooted your phone before flashing? Also, have you tried to do the wipes on the recovery?
Not sure if any of those will fix it for you, but eh, it's better than nothing
Is the romantic on the phone partition or on a external sd card, and have you set the install location to the correct partition

i guess you have not rooted your phone..
and if you did..you are trying to flash a rom through stock recovery?
please search before you know what to do..
we only flash it via cwm recovery, mobile odin or pc odin..
am i correct?
What are you trying to flash, rom type, backup? Need more info.

but it just more confuse me...
many talks about soft bricks
and 4.4.4
no talking about 4.4.2 that this is my situation now
You would have to flash all the files in succession. Download a file, rename to update.zip, place on phone sd card, flash via recovery. Download the next and repeat the steps. They must be flashed in a certain order though.
