Hi everyone, i have a problem. my phone was brick at january and i fixed it with adb shell. And i turned back to stock 4.0.4 rom. I repeat this problem again while formatting / data stop phone. I use birck start and end apps and find bad blocks. Bad blocks are between 2147 and 5387 mb. After i repartition with adb shell and i fixed it. After i installed stock 4.1.2 rom. while using the phone its randomly freezing. but i have a interesting problem. While listenning music phone freeze,but music is dont stop. music player is running in background. it intresting screen freezing music is playing. Question is How can i fix this freezing problem. i tried many solution but still have a problem.

I have the same issue as you with the Note freezes up like that.
I don't think there's a solution to fix it. Im running CM10.1 and that also freezes up
once in a while too then I had to do a full wipe then its back to normal again.
Save yourself a headache and move on, which I did with my new Note 2.

[Q] Problem: SGS plays music by itself. What's up?

Hi Guys,
I do have a really strange problem with my Galaxy S i9000. It randomly plays music by itself without opening any player. I can never know when it starts and even if I kill all tasks and most of the services (all I can) it won't stop. If I open the player it does not show any active playback. I can stop the playback if I slide down the upper status bar. I also can adjust the playback volume normally but it is very loud even on the lowest level.
In fact, it is always the same song (no mp3, it's a FLAC) which is located here:
/mnt/sdcard/external_sd/MP3/Paul Kalkbrenner...Berlin_Calling(FLAC)/14...
Some guys in a Moto Droid Forum already experienced the same problem with 2.1:
hXXp://androidforums.com/motorola-milestone/64497-music-playing-itself.html
I have no idea what I can do. I did not test/hack a lot and the phone is set up pretty fresh and clean.
Froyo 2.2 (JP6) flashed with Kies RegHack
Root done with ]SuperOneClick v1.5
OCLF V2+
All installed Apps are major ones and well know. So nothing special, spectacular or risky. Does anybody know what the root cause of the problem could be?
I do hope there are some ideas what I could do. Of course I could uninstall the built in player, move or delete the file but that wouldn't be a "real" solution or explain what happens. Please help! Thank you.
Best regards,
DvP
related issue
weirdly enough I had a variant of this until very recently, when it just suddenly stopped happening.
In my case, the music player would repeatedly restart itself, although it wouldn't actually be playing a track. By repeatedly I mean every time I picked the phone up I'd check running apps and find the music player there. This was on a brand new, completely un-tampered-with phone.
I went to JPM via Odin recently and rooted the phone and then the behaviour stopped.
Is there any way how I can find out which process is playing the music? I could try to make a video when the song runs again to show that no application is running at all if that helps :-/

[Q] Problem playing music

Hi,
I'm not a big user of music on my Captivate, but last day I tried to play some mp3s and had a bad surprise.
First song always plays normally but the player freeze everytime I press next.
I tried with different players (stock player, 3, Player Pro) and it has always the same behaviour.
I'm running Axura 1.01 with recommended lagfix option.
The only thing I modified I could think of, that could have a link with the music, would be unistalling DRM service (to solve battery drain issue).
I didn't freeze this service (uninstalled if for real ) so I can't really check if it's the source of the problem.
Any idea/help is welcome
Thanks!
I had problems playing music for awhile it turned out to be my external memory card going bad it would still work in my old phone but for some reason it would start skipping and freezing in my captivate got a new card no more problem

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Mount the card on your PC and run a check disk
If you still have problems, save your data and run a FULL format.
Thanks for the replies
It's still not working, my music is located on the internal SD of the captivate. I tried removing my "external" SD, just in case, but it doesn't change anything, music app is still freezing when changing song =/
Any other idea?
Flash to stock and see if the issue still happens?
Seriously though - this is a valid bug for the Auxura dev to address. If the folks running the ROM do not have this issue ... its possible that you will need to re-flash the ROM again to fix it.

[Q] eclair live wallpapers

Just got my Galaxy S up and running on AT&T. It's the unbranded phone - not a captivate.
What is the best stable rom right now? I read about the official version codes, but I'm confused as to JR, JP, JM, etc.
At this point I just want something that's fast and works, so probably something 2.1 based. Later when I have more time I'll play with Froyo.

[Q] Laggy pinch-to-zoom
Hi everybody!
When i use the pinch-to-zoom function in my browser (the default browser on SGS), it's very slow. It is very laggy and not fast at all. Is there a fix for this or have I missed something?
please help!
Think you've answered your own question there.
If you want it on 2.1 install launcherpro or something.

[Q] Battery Drain on Mimocan Lag Fix
Hello all
I have noticed that my battry drain very fast after I applyed the Mimocan lag fix with a Sandisk 16 gb card Class 2 (all thanks to Mimocan for this lag fix. Apps run much smoother).
The main problem is when the phone goes in to standby. Last night it drained 22% even with all sync action diabled and all apps killed. Before the lag fix I did only see a 2-4% drop in battery over night.
To compare it drained more then a 15 min call I made before I went to sleep (35% vs 25% of total battery used. I pulled it out of the charger 5 min. before the call, so the data should be correct)
When the phone is activated, it seem like the battery drain is about normal.
I wonder if all/most ppl have this problem or is it just me?
My guess is that the SD card is activated all the time to acces apps data, and thus drain the battery.
Im on the m2 software, but I dont know if its the software or just a common issue when doing this lagfix?
Give a comment, Thx.
[Q] What drivers are needed for Odin?
Like other people, I'm having extreme difficulty connecting my SGS to PC with USB. I have tried just about everything mentioned in the forums, including:
-USB drivers from Kies and other sources (like the ATT Captivate drivers). Usually the Kies downloaded package installs all, but it cannot find the samsung modem driver when I plug in the phone. The Captivate drivers could not find "USB gadget". I tried installing both.
-Reformatting SD card (actually allows me to connect to 91 Panda PC Helper in -debug mode... but that's it)
-Erasing all references to Nokia and Motorola using Regedit. However I did not erase references to Samnsung or Windows Mobile)
-Praying to the creator
-Sacrifice of chicken
-Starting phone while connected to USB
-turning off antivirus.
I tried flashing phone using odin, in download mode, but it seemed that odin could not see my phone. Nothing happened.
Anyone have other ideas?

[Q] Is the latest fix completely safe for device longterm?
Some people are wary of the stress caused by the latest fix, I am very very new to smartphone's in general and wanted the honest opinions of those who truly know android/device hardware.
There is a lot of well intentioned misinformed posters in any forum. But these things are important to get correct, I would much rather wreck my external 32GB card than the actual phone internal memory.
[Q] Busybox not installing
Hey all,
I am having a problem with busybox. According to the 1.18 installer, I have 1.15.3 installed. But the installer won't let me upgrade because 'the nand is not unlocked'. When I try the older 1.17 version, I suddenly have no busybox installed and have the same message with the failed instalation. What can I do....
Running jm5 with samset 1.9 (ext 3/4 fix not applied).

[Q] Wake the phone using Menu, Home or Back button?
Like the title says. Does anyone know if there's a way to wake the phone up using the Menu, Home or Back button like they've been able to do with the Desire and Nexus One?
Reference:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696907&goto=newpost
Samsung placed the power button at an awkward place. I assume it wouldn't be too hard to accomplish this. Probably using an app or coded into custom ROMs?
EDIT: Don't have the phone yet but so I assumed it couldn't do it like the Desire. it seems you can wake the phone with Home and Power. I think the thread above details how to enable/disable the other buttons in waking the phone as well. Looks like a simple editing of the keyboard layout and then pushing it back. Thanks.
[Q] Still lag in Contacts and Phone even with Quadrant score 2106
I am now having Quadrant score of 2106 after using RyanZAEXT2Lagfix Alpha1. It is a huge increase. However, i still notice the annoying lag in CLOSING of application such as CONTACTS and PHONE. Opening of these application is also not as seemless as in Desire HTC sense which I previously own.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

[Q] ODIN questions
Hi there,
Could anyone tell me what will happen if I did the following:
I checked around but I don't think these minor questions have been covered in the big FAQ
Is it necessary to apply repartitioning when updating to a new firmware?
Will you corrupt data if you upgrade just 'modem' or 'csc' on ODIN?
Will you retain all your data if you don't go for repartition when updating to new firmware?
I've successfully flashed 2 new firmwares. One of them was Russian (jm5) and I was told a bit after than I can just apply the jm1 csc. Anyway, I got over it and just reflashed back to JM2 as it was stable enough.
Thanks
[Q] Headphones and micro issue
Hi,
I am the happy owner of HiDefDrum (+micro) - by atomic floyd - headphones I bought originally for my iPhone. It worked great with the iPhone 3G 16Go (sound, microphone and button).
Now I bought a Samsung Galaxy S last week, and I have problems with my headphones.
If I plug the headphones completely, the sound is weird when I listen to music (as if I heard only an echo of the sound, I don't even hear the voice of the singer) unless... I press the headphones button ! Then the sound is normal.
I can listen to a normal sound when I do not plug the headphones completely (leaving the last part of the plug outside).
And in any case, the microphone does not work.
I thought it was a hardware problem, until I saw that we can access many configuration settings using the code *#*#197328640#*#*
I guess the problem can be solved by modifying some settings in this menu, but I have no idea which !
Can anyone help ?
[Q] Question before drastic measures :) experts please
Hi Guys
I have tried all sorts of lag fixes on this forum, but after installing a couple of apps (10 to 15 in my case). The telephone is sluggish and laggy.
Yesterday i got fed up oflag fixes and firmware flashing hoping that the next version will be the solution so i put it on one of the online selling websites
I really like the way the phone looks and its amazing hardware but i am really not sure whether to keep it or sell it
Everyone keeps saying that the froyo 2.2 update will solve all the problems, so would you guys recommend holding on to the phone till end of september till the froyo is released, or should i sell it now and minimize my losses and try some other mobile phone
Is it true that 2.2 is gonna do its magic regarding lag and the time it takes to load an app, or am I having high expectations
[Q] Couple of newbie questions :)
Greetings fellow Friends from Galaxy
I just moved myself from the HTC Magic section to this one.. It was quite a jump, the Galaxy S Camera and 4inch screen are AWESOME =)
I have a few noob questions that I don't want to spread through many posts, so i've chosen to get them all here, without polution this forum section. Also they might come in handy for future Galaxy S buyers!
My phone is: 2.1-update1 @ I9000XXJF5
Question #1
Well at first glance everyone's trying to fix the "LAG PROBLEM"... I haven't noticed any lag!! What are we talking about? If its a fix.. i want it too
Question #2
The phone came with Android 2.1, but at samsung-firmwares.com and at this dev section of the forum, i saw the JP3 Froyo release. How stable is this? Is it already a daily driver or a total beta? As an Android lover, i'd love to have the latest
Question #3
I've used the One Click rooting solution and then the ROM Manager Clockwork to boot into clockwork rom and make a full-system backup. In my HTC Magic i had the recovery ROM (Amon_RA) flashed into the internal phone memory, so even if i didn't have a ROM installed, i was ALWAYS able to boot into recovery. That was a safety plus. How can i flash the Clockwork Recovery directly to my phone, without the ROM Manager? I'd feel more secure if i could count on recovery even if, for example, i flashed a non-working system ROM.
Question #4
So what is YOUR favourite ROM? My stock has some unwanted apps, and even worse, it's Eclair. I'd like to switch soon, but i don't know these Galaxy S ROMs Tell me what's the best ROM for you!
Thanks guys, XDA is indeed the #1 place for mobile stuff
Cheers

Could anyone help me a bit

Weird "soft restart" / force close???

I am using JVQ Sensation Rom with the JVQ semaphore kernel atm.
I sometimes get some weird "soft restart" / force closes.. no idea how to better name this issue.. let me describe:
The Phone screen turns black, phone vibrates one time shortly, then it comes back to life - media scanner is running, my connection bars show a "stop sign" like they do before or when you don't enter your pin at start.. but shortly afterwards the normal connection bars are shown and I do not have to enter my pin.
If I listen to MP3 or had some other app open at the time of these "soft reboots" they are no longer open and the mp3 playback stops when this reboot occurs.
---
Does anyone have a clue what this could be? I dumped logcat into a file and looked through it myself, but couldn't really find anything on my own.
I cannot really reproduce this error, but it usually happens when I do had a few apps running or had recently used the phone it seems.
I am thinking maybe it could be the garbage collector / memory free thingy that then kills the launcher or something - could that be it?
Or is this known problem or smth? I don't really know what to search for in the search function - I'm sure anyone had this before, but no idea how to find a thread about this error.
Bump this. I was on a vibrant rom (revolution) I have a captivate. I used darkcore kernel and jk4 modem. Worked fine for a while...but did that a couple times a day while I was listening to Pandora on my bt headset.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
It's a problem, started from 2.3.3
This problem,affecting all 2.3.3 releases!!
There is also a thread in Q & A section but not many people paid attention to it.
Every 'now and then' phone slows down for moments, till the point that, it reboots itself or give force close or freezes so you have to turn it off.After reboot, it good to go again for ~3-4 days and then again same thing happens.
I read in some threads that darky rom also has this problem but I don't think its darky rom problem but stock Gingerbread itself has something wrong.
If it does not reboot and you don't power it off then you have to wait ~1-2 minutes before its comes back respond.
1. SD card formatting, already ruled out in thread in Q & A. I formatted the card but it simply happens again.
2. Less RAM can also be ruled out as I tried to open as many apps possible without closing them but Gingerbread was doing memory management very well and no freezes.
Expert please give your opinion, how can we get it fixed.

Music player freezing all the time (tryed reinstaling)

I have Darky 10.2, before 10 RE something and its the same. Player is randomly freezing all the time. If I install differend player (like winamp) its the same... Any sugestions?
is this while using headphones? if so, the problem is a loose connection with the headphones -- I tried several different payers thinking it was software related only to find out it is a physical connection issue with the headphones plug
Just tried: its the same on "speaker"... 2-3songs and its freezes :/
Edit: listening to radio is working just fine...
I've encountered the same problem with my i9000 sgs.
I've both with and without headphones.
What happens is my sgs will go into sleep mode then shortly after it will hang and I'd have to restart. However, if i keep the phone on, there are no issues. I initially thought it was a problem with SetCPU. I uninstalled it but the problem still persisted.
I'm running speedmod k15i t13 on 2.3.3 GB, base version XJV9.
Also, i do experience a problem where the alarm clock function of the clock regularly does not sound at all. I've read that it is because i cleaered my RAM after setting it to go off, is that true? (Sorry for thread jacking just wanted to know whether it is related)
Bought Galaxy Note. Working without problems^^
