[Q] Problem with dialer. - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello people i got a galaxy s - not rooted running on gingerbread 2.3.3. Sometimes when i try to type a phone number with the dialer the phone "kicks" me bac to the home screen. It doesn't allow me to type the number. Any ideas why is this happening? I did a factory reset but even after that the issue continues. Thank you.

Hmhh it is difficult to say ...any new apps installed???
Maybe a fixed bug with 2.3.6 because you use 2.3.3 ???

Yeah this happened to my device once but a soft reset fixed it. Try clearing your memory.

Thanks!!!
What do you mean with "soft reset" ???

Weird phone problem.

This is about as weird as it gets.
My phone won't let me hang up from a call. I try the touch screen button and the actual phone button and nothing.
Everytime I end a call, it will just stay "connected" until I hard reset the phone.
Has anyone else had this happen? And how can I fix it?

Nope. I'm just using the stock dialer.
Is your service through ATT?

ok, in these cases its good to perform hard reset (not soft reset) if u are not afraid of setting your phone again from the beggining.
Then after hardreset u should try if its still the same, if not check it after every application that u install(u can figure out if it is some app that is causing it). If the hard reset dont help, u shoul try to flash another rom.
i agree it seems u need to perform a hard reset
but first try to remove ur sd card reboot and tell us if you still have the problem
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_Resets
go start-settings-clear storage and follow
i dont think u need another rom (especially if you happy with urs)

Thank you "jonpaslim" for your prompt reply.
Actually I didn't.
Because I'm worry about getting bricked by factory reset.
And also I'm not sure that I can do it the right way.

Im glad to help you. Thank you also.
this problem is called kernel wake lock.. you must downgrade to gb, do a full wipe then install a fresh ics via kies or odin, after booting up in ics go into your recovery mode holding volume up + home button + power key and clear your cache 4 time in a row this will solve your issue and maybe increase your battery life if you having any problem on ics related to battery backup

[Q] Russian JB with dead GSM

I flashed the latest Russian Jelly Bean ROM today with Odin and everything works... Except GSM. The phone part works for two seconds and then dies, then again two seconds and dead. I can select a network and it can register on the network but most of the time it looks like it's just in flight mode.
Should I try to downgrade or is there some fix I should try before? I tried searching but didn't find much.

Did factory reset? Lot users had that problem if they didn't do that.

I didn't. What's the procedure now? Factory reset and then flash it again?

Ok I made a factory reset and now it works. But the implementation is hideous, wifi and battery are worse and everything is a bit laggy. AOSP would be a blessing at this point. Thanks.

No, now do factory reset. Go to recovery, you will find it there. Turn phone on with VolumeUp+Home+Power.

Yes... after Factory Reset... Root it and use Root apps and Custom Kernels to make your phone fly.....
At first I was disappointed with JB... but now after a lot of miscellaneous tweaks, my phone runs much better than GB!!

Please help: Phone freezes and reboots

I have a problem, hope someone can help me.
First time i haven't rooted my phone lol. Since update my phone randomly freezes and reboots, sometimes it just turns off, which means it doesn't shut down but screen turns black and its off. I wonder if someone else has the same problem and could solve it or if someone knows how i could track this error to get rid of it. Some sort of logging program i could use for example but as i said phone is not rooted. Appreciate any help. Thanks
try clearing the cache or if that doesn't help manually download the firmware (on a stable wifi connection) and flash it again.
when did you get the phone?
share the phone's model number and the software version running please

well a factory reset will clear your cache for you but if that not where the issue lays you'll still be in the same predicament.
flash your firmware again if you need to. don't interrupt or pause the download and do over a strong wifi network.
