Hi,
today my phone P990 starts always going on and off after a while (in rom, in recovery always, not able to start the rom anylonger). Battery is fully charge, phone is rooted, worked since half a year without problems. Using TonyP Para Rom V12 and Pengus Kernel V120. I formatted system, have done a full wipe etc.
But after some minutes, the effect always comes up again? Battery defect? Or any other ideas?
thanks a lot

I would suggest putting some logs on PA thread, if you are using paranoid android. It is useful to help you.

maybe the problem you have is that you have a high OC, and try using a stable KK, not an experimental

Hi All,
I have a strange problem for the last month or so which is giving me a lot of headache. I was hoping someone here could help me.
I have a galaxy s i9000 which I got on contract from 3 UK a few months back which came with Froyo 2.2.1. Everythng was fine and sometime later, i was offered an upgrade to Gingerbread and I went ahead with it. Then, I decided to root the phone as well with CF-Root, something I had never done before (rooting Androids that is).
It went well with that as well, and I got CWM and Superuser installed but I discovered that I can't use the Wifi anymore. The moment I switch on the wifi, within a few seconds the phone goes off into a bootloop. Switching off, battery pull, nothing works and the bootloop just comes back when the phone is booted back up. Apart from a full factory reset and a restore from a nandroid backup I haven't found a way of correcting this. So effectively, I am without Wifi at this point. Since then, I have switched to a different cf-root kernel, added lagfix etc. and everything works...except the wifi. I have not touched the ROM in any way, despite being tempted to do so many times. Didn't want to break anything else in the phone being quite new to this.
The current setup of the phone is the following:
Firmware: 2.3.3
Baseband: I9000JV5
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9000XXJVO-CL182937se.infra
Build: GINGERBREAD.NEJVD
I had other cf-root kernels before, and all of them have the same wifi issue. This one at least gives me a very smooth interface.
Would really really appreciate if someone out there can help me or point me in the right direction. Why am I getting this bootloop when I switch on the wifi and is there a way of stopping this? Many thanks in advance.
Abhi
I'd come off that baseband as its your network operators release, flash JVH, JVP, JVR or JVB or something, then all should be fine dude

Many thanks. Finally took the plunge and used rom kitchen for jv5 with full wipe. Things seem to be working fine now. Am still using the same kernel and it looks ok so far!
Word of advice....galaxian kernel will double your phone speed it *whoosh* super quick lol

Thanks for that! But now, using my new found confidence on all things Android have installed GB 2.3.4, again from ROM kitchen. The kernel is the Chainfire kernel of JVP. Its fantastic and the phone has speeded up tremendously!! Will still try Galaxian to see if it gets better.
I have galaxy s since last one year and i love it... However my phone has become very slow these days.. I tried several roms and kernels.. Formatted both internal and external SD cards... But still it is very slow... I remember that I dropped it 3-4 times... Is it because of it?
Can someone suggest me please... What should I do...

Maybe over clock it ...? I thought the new ROMs would have helped. It could be the fact that your phone is older now and some internal hardware has been worn out

Can I do anything related to the hardware? I mean how can i check if it is not giving 100%?

I'm no expert so I'm not sure. Best bet would be to replace the hardware which Costs a ton of money. Its better to just a get a new phone. Either that or maybe mess around with new ROMs some more. Maybe you are wiping your phone incorrectly or maybe you use it too much

my suggest...
1. update your firmware to last version (2.3.6).
2. try to change kernel and custom rom.
3. maybe, with some different kernel and custom rom, you can choice the better option for your device. for example, try using kernel semaphore (gingerbread) and custom rom F1 or other.
I would be very surprised if physical trauma has simply caused a slow-down in speed. It would more likely show itself as random reboots and other more obvious symptoms.
Much like Windows, after a lot of use, it slows down - you have said that you've flashed other roms, maybe you just haven't come across a good one; there are after all a lot of different ones...
I would suggest the deodex-ed / rooted stock rom from RAMAD Gingerbread JVT. As I remember it was always quite stable and fast.
The hardware components inside a modern phone will not wear-out after a year - they are not moving parts! - when ram or a processor wears out it usually results in total system crashing not just a slow down.
Thank you all for your feedbacks and suggestions. I use my phone a lot. Usually i use TV out a lot as i do not have a cable connection in my hostel room. I use my phone a lot. I flashed it atleast more than 100 times. I have not seen any reboots, crashed , soft reboots etc very often. When i use MIUI rom my phone is very fast indeed however , it does not have a TV Out and therefore i have to use a stock based rom.. i will try Rammad's GB Rom as per your suggestion and will report back. As i told you that i dropped it a couple of times, is it possible that any of the Internal components have become loose?
Have you ever tried Advanced task killer? Or even killed tasks?

Did you try the ics roms. These r pretty fast..specially team icssgs.

Try ICSSGS RC 4.2. I had the same situation as you. It was fine for one year and I was using Darky rom by that time. Suddenly I started feeling that my phone is too slow. Lot of stuck. Sometimes I had to remove battery just to restart.
Now running above ICS rom with Devil 14.2 Kernel its rocking ...
yeah I'd suggest u the advanced taskkiller too
in options you can set the auto killlevel to safe, so that it kills smth like games in the background but not important apps
since then my phone is quite fast even with stockrom

Yeah, and you can just use the ATK widget when you close out of something press the icon and it kills all the background apps...
I will surely try ATK and ICS roms as per your suggestions...

keep us updated...
Just get stock jw1, flash with reparation to wipe everything, then do a factory reset via secret dial code. Now install semaphore 2.5.0 kernel. Dl superuser to get root. Now install thunderbolt tweaks the main package and the 60lmk other addon(read thread how to) . This is the best setup i can think of in terms of speed bat life and functionality. Next step look in pikachus Android optimization thread and remove the bloatware listed there, basically remove as much bloat as possible. Enjoy ur fast phone.

Perhaps you should try the ICSSGS RC4.2 with Devil 14.2 LED VC Kernel. I'm on it and its awesome, my phone lags no more and I'm using it for my primary phone.

Hi,
I am using stock gingerbread rom from Spice website.
Everything is ok except battery calibration.
My phone usually shuts off at 15% battery life. I have tried using batterycalibration app to delete the batterystats. Nothing happens.
If my phone shut off and I recharge in off state, then it is fixed. My battery goes down to around 5% and shuts off.
However if I recharge the phone in an ON state anytime, the same problem comes back, phone shuts off at 15%.
Is there any permanent fix for this? I can't allow phone to drain fully, shut it off for hours to recharge and then use! Very impractical!
Any suggestions?
Can something like this be done for our phone?

How long has it been since you flashed stock. Im using the same Rom and my phone shuts off at 5% when its on. You've to wait for a couple of week at least before battery is semi accurate

hi
yes it it very much safe.IF ur still worried walk in to any spice service center and they will give u the same for free just remember to take a copy of ur original bill
Upgrading to any rom is safe if its meant for your phone. You could also take a complete nandroid backup and flash any rom. If for any reason you want to go back to the preloaded stock rom, you can always restore the backup.
Like haree said, you could also get any spice mobile centre to do it.
However from personal experience after using the spice gingerbread rom, try upgrading to other custom roms like CM7/Andro-id etc.
They will give you a much better experience.
thanks guys .ive just upgreaded to that rom given by spice on their website.there is only minor difrrencess here and there.but nothing special.i expected more from gingerbread.now i am thinking of tring custom roms..thanks again for helping me to get rid of my doubt..

In your previous post, you were worried about nulling warantee by flashing ROMs. Note that some custom ROMs are pre-rooted, and rooting the phone nulls the warantee. However, you can always go back to your stock ROM before taking your phone to the service center and there is no way to figure out that the phone has/had been rooted
There are a lot.
There are lots of custom ROMs in the development section of our device that you can try. Currently using, MIUI 2.4.20 by Sir Zuk and no major issues at all.
Guys, I switched to ICS a month ago and boy, what a difference to battery life!
I am easily getting 24+ hours with normal office usage using IceColdSandwich ICS ROM!
On the stock GB by spice I could barely squeeze 12+ hours!
Highly recommend everyone to try CM9 or Icecoldsandwich ICS in the android development section.
Hi, I have a Captivate running Jelly Bean 4.2.1 (Slim-4.2.1.Beta.1-OFFICIAL) on a Semaphore kernel. It works perfectly when it's plugged into a computer through USB. Otherwise, it reboots into recovery, every single time it goes into standby, even when it's on a charger. I've tried raising the CPU speed, uninstalling SetCPU, re flashing the ROM, and nothing helps.
Is this a hardware issue, app issues, or does it have to do with the ROM or kernel? I had CyanogenMod 10.0 with a devil kernel running on it previously, and it did the same thing.

Have made you many any changes/mods?
Also, did you try going back to stock KK4 and reflashing the rom you want to use?
If it's recurrent on 2 different Roms, then it's most likely something you restore or some mods. Hardware issue is possible if it does it on stock.

No, I haven't really made any changes. It wasn't doing it on stock a couple days ago, before I flashed the new ROMs. I installed an App (wakelock powermanager) that keeps the cpu running. That fixes the problem but it drains the battery way too fast.
I'm trying to figure out how would be the best way to go back to stock.
Thanks

The best way to go back to stock is the one I mentioned, Odin one click KK4 (in the dev section).
I tried a few roms out an seem to all have removed prl update, poor to little signal, broken gps locking, an a few other issues. My concern today I'm bringing up is wondering if anyone could supply me a clean stock rom. I need to wipe and install it. I feel going back to stock is my best option at this time so atleast my functions could work. Just at the moment kind of lost. sorry for the noob help.
What rom are you using that it's broken on? Working fine on tranquil but its far from a stock rom

Stock rom is more stable & fast, but I don't like the UI.
Using CM, works fine.
