Recently I upgraded my Samsung Galaxy I9000 to 2.3.6 using Samsung Kies.
Since then there has been problem with internet using mobile network.
The mobile internet is working fine and then it stops. I have to either restart the phone or turn the airplane mode on and off to start the mobile internet.
Pls help in resolving this issue.

I have cleared app cache using AppMgr III and then reboot the mobile. However the problem still persists.
Pls suggest some other troubleshooting step.

Following are the details:
Model Number: GT-I9000
Firmware Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: I9000DDJV7
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.DDJVB
I have never rooted my phone. I have only updated the version using Samsung Kies.
The internet issue has only started after I updated to 2.3.6
well, thats samsung stock for sure, why dont u juz root it? as updating usually need a wiping cache n dalvik (thats why i hate samsung kies update my fone) n everyone here know bout it.
or juz change da firmware to jvt or jw4 or jvu, that one quite stable, but u need to flash it thru odin n flash at ur OWN RISK, i m juz suggesting here.
but if u happy with present version, find some way to clear data, cache n dalvik.cache.
but make it clear first, either ur fone is da cause or ur mobile provider got problem.

Yes, it is Samsung stock ROM.
I don't know how to root the phone. I read lot of articles on the internet for rooting and flashing, but it was very confusing.
There are other problems with the phone after updating to 2.3.6 from Kies:
1. When I type SMS or WhatsApp, the first letter is never capital.
2. The battery discharges in 4-5 hours.
3. The phone hangs very often
4. Sometimes I am not able to type an SMS
5. Sometimes I cannot dial phone no.
Since yesterday, new problem has started. When I keep for charging it says 100% in 5 mins. Then i have to disconnect the charger and connect the charger again, then it starts charging.
I don't mind rooting/flashing but I don't know how to do it correctly.
What is my phone's firmware, is it JVB or JV7.
Since you too have GT-I9000, which firmware are you using?
Which is better firmware JVT or JW4 or JVU.
Can you provide me with accurate procedure to change the firmware.
Thanks.
i m using jvu as my fone came from europe, but jvu can be use quite universally as i already flash it to jvt, jvb,n ddjvb build number i9000 without any problem
as far as i know, jw* was da latest, so juz pick any latest version, jvu/jvt or jw4 depending on ur region
but be sure to confirm ur fone is defenitely i9000 as different version will lead to bricking ur device

Ok, Thanks.
I will follow the instructions in the link you have provided.
I have bought my phone from India and the model no. is GT-I9000, so JVU should be fine, I guess.
Can you tell the difference between root and flash?
Also when I do root/flash, should I remove SIM card and external memory card?
nope juz keep it intact inside, i makes thing easier when first boot after flashing
flashing - changing ROM version
rooting - getting access to system
but remember this

1. What should be done first Root or Flash? The link provides steps for Flashing only. How to root?
2. If I root/flash with SIM and external card inside mobile, will I loose any data from them?
3. After root/flash, can I still use Kies. I usually use Kies for syncing contacts to my laptop.
Don't worry, Flashing is my risk.

Thanks for your help. Will flash mobile during the weekend. Will inform you outcome.
sorry for da damn lazy answer before,
u need to flash first with odin, use da 3 file needed + pit n reboot, after reboot, if u wanna root, flash cf root given
data will lose as if new fone, all contact will lost, so backup ur contact(vcf) n sms(sms backup app).
root is not needed, if u wanna use stock ROM, flash firmware, juz flash cf if u wanna root ur fone.
kies can be use, but make a backup before anything. ok.

I was reviewing the steps for flashing/rooting in the below link and I have some query:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2149455
After the steps for flashing the steps are provided for rooting:
Go into Download mode so that we can now root the Phone
Then plug in Phone
Click Reset on ODIN then in PDA put in CF-Root Kernel File for JVU to be Rooted
CF-Root is in ODIN FILES or DOWNLOAD HERE
Then Click START.. should take just a few seconds ....
Same again when you see S Logo on Phone unplug Cable
Close ODIN
Now, what I do now is go into :
Settings > SD Card and Storage > Unmount SD and Wipe that and then at the bottom Wipe Format USB Storage
Enable USB Debugging > Plug in Phone
Window should open up showing your phone Directory..
Copy over your ROM that you want
Shut Down Phone
Reboot into Recovery (Vol UP - Menu - Power)
Wipe the 4 things (probably know these... you should do)
Data / Factory Reset
Cache Partition
Go to Advanced > OK
Dalvik Cache
Battery Stats
Go Back > OK
To move Up or Down > Use the Left Side Volume Rocker Switches with Menu to OK Action
Install your Custom ROM from Zip Card that you want...
Reboot Phone when complete... DONE!
At the end it says, install your Custom ROM from Zip Card. I do not understand what is Custom ROM and which Zip Card.
about da custom ROM, IF u wanna to upgrade from 2.3 to 4.0 or 4.1 or 4.2 only, u dont need to do it, juz finish at unplug when u see s logo, thats all, n setting up ur fone
if u wanna to root ur fone, flash cf root given by link by putting CFROOT OXAxx xxxx x in odin in PDA section with untick repartition, n flash kernel, thats all n ur fone will be rooted.
custom ROM can be choose in i9000 development section n there will be zip file ur talking about, but if u already ok with 2.3.6, dont upgrade. n dont ask stupid question there (its DEV section for god sake)

Zup,
I rooted a while ago, and since i'm running Ubuntu i haven't managed to get CWM yet, so i noticed that i can use Odin Mobile Pro to do it so i installed it and downloaded the correct kernel. I opened OMP and browsed to find the kernel on the internal memory but i can't choose it (it's a .RAR-file), so i extract it to see what's hidden inside. According to Odin i can flash "zImage" so i do it. Big big mistake.
The phone won't boot now, and the only thing i get is the "Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000.
What to do?
Thanks in advance
I can enter Download mode, and that's it. Some help here please?
Use pc odin and flash a stock rom. You must be in download mode
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Thanks.
Where can i find a stock ROM? And do i need ADB installed or is it OK with the drivers from Kies? I'm asking since i'm using Ubuntu so i'll have to use my brothers PC, so i can't install a freaking SDK.
Got a stock ROM now, downloaded the ADB files and Odin, so i'll see if that works..
You should just try to read a little more
Kies drivers should be fine. Go to the development forum and you will find stock roms thread.

Yeah, i noticed this when i had downloaded 300MB of LA4, so i didn't bother to stop it and select a rootable ROM I just wanted to get my Note working again. But i'm already missing root like crazy, so i think i'm gonna downgrade and root it again very soon.
Edit: Wait a minute.. I was rooted, i messed the phone up, flashed LA4, booted up the phone, nothing got wiped but i lost root.
ya it is nonwipe version so even with PC Odin, you won't lose anything BUT just ROOT
Aha!
But if i choose to flash another ROM with PC Odin, will i get the triangle at boot? Do i only get the triangle when i flash unofficial ROMs like CM9?
I'm a little unclear on these parts.

No it won't give you triangle if you flash any stock ROM. It gives only when you flash custom(yes like rocket/CM9)

Ya i was surprised, b'coz it shud not wiped by flashing lc1.
Anyway your issue was common and i have said.earlier it shud not bricked. You need was just wiping. Anyway you got it back running.
But really keep it habit to read two times before flashing,modding till you get used to it.

What did you try to download and do you have a custom recovery installed, twrp or cwm? With whatever recovery you have try doing a factory reset and wipes.

I believe I was trying to download a new CWM with odin. I'm not sure how to use a factory reset and wipes as I can't use anything on the GT, as it is stuck. As this point I am hoping that the new IC firmware will be available through Kies.
I can still use Odin from the PC through Kies, though.
Thanks again!

Golf Educator: confused:
Does Odin recognize your device? If so you can flash the stock rom from sammobile.com. You need to extract the .tar.md5 file from the zip. Use 7-zip to do that

Again, thanks for responding...
At this point I'm afraid of "Bricking it" before I can have a chance to update the firmware to IC. Hopefully that will be soon.
I really don't know what I am doing, and I have already screwed it up. The GT Honey Comb is working fine, but I can't do anything to upgrade it, internally, as everything is stuck within the GT!
At one point I was trying to upgrade to Jelly Bean, but now I'm just hoping to just get IC. If I can get the IC downloaded through Kies, I'm thinking that the new firmware upgrade using Kies will take care of things. What do you think?
I guess I can live without Jelly Bean.
But I'm willing to give something else a try, however, I would need detailed, step-by-step "For Dummies" directions on what I should do; and as kind as you are, I wouldn't want to ask you to do that?
Kind regards,
Golf Educator
Hi. Don't be scared of losing your device. Will try to walked you thru the process.. just to be more clearer. Can you write down all your device info such as current firmware that u r using? And also do tell us the region ( im XME -Malaysia) because sometimes not all the stock rom can be use to upgrade..
You may need :-
1- kies(for drivers)
2- cables
3- charge your tab to 80%
4- windows/os of ur pc or Mac
After you post all of the info. I or we will try our best to walk you thru the process

Okay, here we go... let's shoot for Jelly Bean!
Model number: GT-p7300, that has wifi with G3, European Version, as I work with the US military at RAF Lakenheath, England, and bought it locally. I am in the London world-time zone. Five hours earlier than EST.
Android version: 3.2
Baseband version: P7300xxkj6
Kernel version: 2.6.36.3 (Original when I bought it, however i did root it) [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Dec 23 13:54:01 KST 2011
Build number: HTJ85B P7300XWKL4
I'm using a PC HP Pavilion with Windows 7 with Odin 3v1.85 that does turn yellow when used.
The Kies on my GT works, but the Kies on my PC for some reason doesn't recognize the GT. I believe the Kies drivers are loaded, ok.
I am using the original Samsonite Cable.
Now you know more about me than my wife does...
Thanks,
Golf Educator :fingers-crossed:
Sorry for all the questions, but it's hard to diagnose all the problems from a distance. It sounds like when you tried to flash cwm something messed up the tab. But if it still turns on you can probably get it to work again. Kies is a crapy program so I always use Odin. When you plug the tab into Odin does the com in Odin turn yellow and show the port?

No problem with the questions... appreciate you taking time to help!
I use Odin 3v1.85 with the correct Samsonite cable. It does turn yellow. I don't know if it shows the port. I haven't toyed with it again as I didn't want to lose the use of the GT to be able to update the new IC firmware that is on the way for this GT-P7300 with wifi and G3, European model.

Ok, that's good, Odin is working and now we can get you up and running. Let's try on thing first, can you to recovery mode? Hold the power button and volume up button down, when the tab responds let go of the power button but still.Hold the volume up, then a second later let go of the volume. This should bring you to a menu where you can do some wipes and a factory reset. (I don't remember exactly what's there) IF you can d o wipes try that first. If that doesn't work then try the factory reset (do you have any data and pictures,etc you wantbacked up?)

Hi,
I'm in the United Kingdom and bought the GT in England... It is the GT-P7300 with wifi and 3G. The IC hasn't been released for the United Kingdom, yet, but it should be out in a few days.
I also think that my Odin is working... but the Recovery Mode is the internal problem that I mentioned with the GT. That is where it is stuck saying that it is loading (but it is not loading). At this point my problem is because of that I can't get to anything and can't do anything in the Recovery Mode with it stuck in that frozen loading effort... including wipes, factory resets, etc., it just keeps on saying that it is loading!
Thanks, again, I appreciate your interest and effort!
Are you trying to use cwm 5.5.0.4 that's in the 8.9 development forum stickies? I would 're-download the .tar version again and try to reflash it with odin. You'll load it in the PDA section and only have the auto-reboot and f.reset checked. Don't have anything else checked. Your first attempt could have been a bad download of cmw.
If you're currently rooted then will have to do something different in order to get the OTA ics when it comes out. I just got it for my tab a few days ago. You'll like it much better than hc.

OK! I think I've made some progress...
I was able to get clockworkMod_Recovery_v5.5.0.4.tar from androidjinn.com. I was also able to get a connection from Odin as it turned yellow. I loaded the PDA with the .tar as you suggested, and started it. It passed! Now I have a CWM that works. Afterwards, using it I did a Factory Reset.
Now, I have a newly installed hc and a working CWM. But, would you believe that the Downloading Mode is still stuck on loading. Do you think when we flash a new ROM that it will reset the reloading correctly?
I feel pretty proud of myself! I think I am ready for Jelly Bean...
How do I do that?
Sounds great. I've been running jb for quite a while, but frankly I'd wait for the ics. Runs just as good and it's stock. Never thought I'd say that until I tried it.

Two questions:
Which system will enable the GT to be used as a phone?
How do I root my newly factory reset hc so my aps work?
Thanks
I have an i957 tab which is different than yours so I don't have an answer to your second question. To root your device see the stickies in the tab 8.9 development section it should be as easy as flashing a zip file thru your recovery. Make sure you get the right zip for your specific device though. Otherwise you can brick it. The biggest mistake people make its using a file for a similar device rather than one for their specific device.

Good work so far! Now you just need to download the rom (.zip file) and gapps (also a .zip) for the rom you want to use. Put those on the sd card of your tablet. To do this you may have to "mount external storage" in the cwm menus. Once you get those on there, do a full wipe, and then install the rom and gapps. That should do it for you.
To be honest, p7300 can only make calls via root and using cm9 custom rom. Will try to help you mate!! Sorry for late reply..
But just to make it easier, the 1st step is to use stock 2.3.6 that can be installed CWM 5, after getting that. You must download the custom cm9 rom and install into your internal memory(as i can recall all cm based rom will update your cwm 5 to 6 in the process). Will give you the link and try to resolve your probs!!
This is what you will need :-
Download Gt p7300 XEU stock 2.3.x ROM(search via filecorp)
Odin
Pits file
(all this is just in case that you need to flash it back to stock)
Will update my post in a short period of time!

Note to gulf educator: if your going to install a custom Rom, cm9 etc., you don't need to root first.

hello...after the update from GB to the russian JB ROM i have these problems: insert SIM,my IMEI is missing and baseband unknown...i have followed the exact tutorial..i have had galaxy ace before so i'm not a total stranger to flashing thru odin...i have tried wipe data , wipe cache, factory reset, rooting and deleting dalvik cache and nothing...i reflashed back to GB..worked fine but with the same problems...everything is working fine , wireless and bluetooth...i can boot into recovery mode and downloading mode with no problems...i have read some things about the EFS folder...i didnt do a backup of it...any advice?
If the imei is missing, you destroyed the device. You can try to get it back. There are a few guides. Or you can get it serviced..

You can install jb root it and reset binary counter. Then flash stock gb. Find method in development threads. And den get it serviced. They will replace the motherboard. Hope you have warranty. Else it's 6k for the service. I got the same problem and followed this procedure.
