[Q] S Plus (i9001) Problems - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there,
I use the cyanogenmod 10.1 since Alpha 1. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094554
This version was just good. I only got problems while using bluetooth...
Yesterday I installed the new version Alpha 2 and only got problems since then. Freeze while using bluetooth, browsing and after finishing a call.
I reinstalled it with Teamwin, but it didn't change anything.
Does anybody know how to fix this?
Greetings

Hi!
CM 10.1 has known issues with bluetooth, and more precisely, with bluetooth headsets and car audio. You can't help that. You can also read their forums, where lots of people complain about that.
Also, you are installing beta 2 and not alpha 2, right? Because beta 2 is the newest.

Yeah of cource... my mistake. I read about the problems with bluetooth...but that has nothing to do with my problems of this beta 2.
Browsing is impossible and I have to restart my phone after every call because it freezes.

After that much updating it is recommened you do a factory reset and a full system wipe. Then install the rom + gapps. issues should be fixed then

Ok thank you
I'll try that later and post you the result

did as you say,
now, I can say that browsing is working. But after I put the calendar on the home screen the phone crashed again.
now it even freezes while booting

Hmm a clean install is recommended. Meaning:
Start from stock android from sammy and flash back to CM 10

I did.
But still some problems:
- freeze while browsing (turned flash etc off and it worked...)
- face unlock
But that's fine. I can make calls with my mobile phone again and I can move the widgets
Thank you for your help so far!

[Q] Updating CM10.1

Hello, I'm not particularly new to Android, nor am I new to the prospect of flashing roms. However, I recently flashed an upgrade of cm10.1 to my Nook HD via recovery and I'm now stuck at "Loading (SD)..." in the bootloader. Is there a specific way that CM10.1 has to be upgraded or did something just go wrong during the flash? With my other devices, you can just flash the upgrade zip from the recovery menu. Thanks in advance for the help!

Up until the most recent .zip, I have done just what you described. Couple times my HD god hung up during that same process... I just powered down and restarted and it booted fine.

Yea it has happened to me too, I just powered off with a long press on the 'N' and power button. Restarted and it worked fine.
Actually i'm on 10.1 too.
This thing happens sometime. This is normal for early alfa soft.
On first clean install test i had 3 or more times stop on Cyanogen logo. But it started work on fourth time. Same happened with second clean install too (messed Adnroid to death with my hard tests and modifications ). Power OFF/On have sometime magical power.
Well, I was able to restart the nook and flashed the zip again. It worked! However, I can't change the brightness. To be honest, I can't remember if I even tried before. So, is this just a bug or is it common? Thanks for the help guys

It's weird. I couldn't get it to work without using the Tablet UI. Once I switched, it started working. Oh well, it's working fine now. Thanks for the help, you guys are the best.

[Q] Bluescreen & Reboots T879. Please help!

Hey there,
I went from stock to CM10.1 and everything works correctly, except that I get bluescreens and now random reboots. I update nightlies hoping that the problem disappears.
Is there anyone that can help me with that issue. It happens randomly, even when it just sits there doing "nothing".
Please help, I don't want to go back to T-Mobile stock (that's where it last worked)!

You could always use the stable version of CM10. It's still Jellybean, just 4.1.2 instead of 4.2.2. My biggest problems with CM10.1 are bluetooth and connecting it to the PC as a Mass Storage Device. With CM10, I have never had issues.
Go up and read the threads in the general forum. The last really stable cyanogenmod releases were the M3 "snapshot". Anything after that is what you get, random reboots, graphical problems etc. Try that one.

That has nothing to do with the problem. But it is because you are using an old recovery, either update CWM or use goo manager to install TWRP, which is touchscreen anyways. Then you wont have the Error 7 anymore.

Random Restarts

I experience random restarts despite of the ROM I have flashed. I have tried JellyBeer ROM, PA ROM, Stunner ROM, Sweet ROM and many more with their respective default kernel. My stupid phone even restarts in CWM and trying to flash a new ROM.
What could be the issue? How can I get this fixed?
Random restarts are quite common with ROMs under development or if not flashed properly. Update the ROM to a stable version or re-flash the ROM wiping cache, factory reset and see. You can flash a stable ROM to get rid of the problem.
All wipes and reflash may solve your problem...

I always flash a stable version of the ROM with a full wipe. Even I format preload,cache,system, etc. Whatever ROM I flash it does not help.
But I simply can not understand what cause the restarts on my phone ?
No harm in just re-flashing a ROM. I face random restarts on the PAC currently, this is a common problem. Else try one of the stable 4.1.2 TW ROMs. Hope you don't face a restart then!
It might be a app you are using. Install catlog from play store and find the cause. You say it happens on all ROMs you flash. Is there any particular app you restore

Thanks I'll try this for sure and let you know. I have installed the app. Can you please tell me how can I use this to make sure what's the problem ?
If you're getting random reboots on TW and AOSP based Roms, I would suspect an app driving the system nuts.

I only use well reputed apps such as Facebook, solid explorer, google handouts, flipboard etc
Facebook App has a good reputation? Would be new to me. Look at their app reviews and star(s) on Google play.
try a proper stock rom with en see if it happens.

Option 1>>>Open Catlog and press record and minimize it has it will start the log process. Use your phone normally and see anything happens.
Option 2>>>I would suggest you one thing flash any ROM best choose CM base ROM and flash gapps and reboot. Don't sign in to google just cancel the process and add it later from settings. Live it stock without loading any apps and see if it reboots for you.
Option 3>>>Might be a faulty motherboard don't know. Was the case when you brought the phone in the first place?

Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it mate. I have clicked the thanks button
Once I got the phone it was working fine. I'm not sure about the power button too. I'm working on it to figure out whether it's the kernel or the ROM the power button.
You can try the following:
1. re-flash the samsung stock rom ....i would recommend you go with Official ICS Rom 4.0.4. Perform a clean data wipe, cache and dalvik cahe.
2. Do not use any other apps other than whats included in stock rom. Observe carefully for 2-3 days.
3. If all goes smooth, you can try installing well-known apps like facebook, whatsapp, etc etc
4. if you still have issue, i suggest you change your battery. Go for the official samsung battery only. Observe your phone's behavior.
Hope it helps you
HAve you ever tried to change the battery. I saw lots of Note batteries gone bad after 9-12 months. I could be the reason. Not sure though.

[Q] Apps are not installing after going CM10.1.3 -> CM 10.2

Hi guys,
The title might not be the best but I do not know how to explain it better in few words.
The problem is the following: I was using CM 10.1.3 without any problem and I wanted to update to CM 10.2. So I deleted data, dalwik and cache. I flashed CM 10.2 two or three times and then I flashed the corresponding gapps. I booted to the main screen and waited if my applications will download automatically (as they did when I was upgrading from CM 9 to 10). It have been two days already and still nothing eventhough on the Google Play it says that I have the affected application installed.
Any idea, trick or hint please?
Thank you,
N.
But you use the Gapps to CM 10.2 and not for CM 10.2 ,right???

I tried signing off Google account completely yesterday and then I singed in. After few hours I tried doing it again (signing off and in). But no luck until now.
I tried deleting the data and nothing new happened.
Just to let you know one thing (if it makes any difference). I tried to install a new application from Google Store (which I have never had installed on my device and my account) remotely (from within web pages). It starts to download on my phone immediately. Secondly - which is weird - I am able to download applications which were not available previously for my country.
hmmm strange you can download apps from other countries... maybe try a factory reset and see what happens? not sure what else you could do?
I had the same issue, just had to reboot
I think that you have tested with a reboot like willian7 ,right??? It is really strange, of course you can download apps from other countrys ...

By the way, I can see in your signature that you are running CM11. Can it be used on a "production" device? I mean I would need it to work (at least phone, SMS, email, internet) without any problems? The reason why I am asking is that it might be easier to try to upgrade than to downgrade and reinstall. Maybe it is even safer. Or is it trouble free to downgrade?
Thanks again and yes, I will hit the buttons
CM11 is actually in Alpha (=UNOFFICIAL) Status, but for me it works stable...but as I said for me it is only my opinion ...a list of the know bugs can you find here:

No Prob, therefore we are here
Good luck hope it help you for solving your prob and CM 11 will work good for your daily use !!!:fingers-crossed:
!!! Don`t forget to use the new gapps for CM 11 and not the ones for 10.2 !!!

Dude you rock
it was a matter of time ....
Just updating to this now, will see how it goes
i've chosen not to wipe cache and apps etc, would a full wipe be recommended or will i be fine?
i ALWAYS do a fresh install including wiping everything because then it rules out having any problems in the future... once i do a full fresh install, i just redownload the apps and transfer the videos again OR leave all the stuff on the memory card as the memory card doesnt get touched while its flashing away lol

I have been using this rom since it got posted, my wifi with it is terrible though, it drops loads, could it be the fw in any way or is it the tablet it's self?
i know the issue isn't the wifi it's self because my phone is also connected and when my tablet's wifi drops my phone is always still connected and i can still view web sites etc..
Any suggestions?
i have not yet experienced any wifi issues :S... im not sure what it could be unfortunately, try a full wipe flash

I can confirm there is wifi issues but not just on this FTF, I used your file to get to stock from cm11 (which had no wifi issues for me) I then relocked bootloader and used sonys tool to fully reinstall the latest firmware. In both instances of official ROM I had random wifi hang ups, not so much full disconnection but it did happen once randomly.
Point is, its nothing to worry about on your part its just a problem with official in general.
