Hi,
my Galaxy S GT-i9000 got into force close loop and I am now stuck after Android boot. Before performing a hard reset (and spending a week setting up the phone and apps again) I would like to try with safe mode: unfortunately I was so far unable to find how to get into safe mode on it.
Anybody could help? Thank you.

I don't remember there being a Safe Mode. Although you can go to Download Mode and flash a new firmware. It should fix the problem you're having.
There is a safe mode. I've unintentionally ended up in it a few times. I have no clue how to get there willingly though.
Edit: That was easy... Just power on the phone while holding the menu button, just as on a bunch of other android phones.

Thanks for the suggestion. With menu button you mean the left-most one, right? I tried this already and seemed to have no effect. I will try again a few times.

Thank you. I already checked I can get to the recovery mode menu, but I understand this would reset everything on the phone, including personal settings and third party apps. I am looking for a way to avoid this, if at all possible: all I need to do is uninstall a looping application.

Ok I found it. For some reason on my Galaxy safe mode is entered by pressing
Menu+Home+Power On
Thank you everybody for your help, the phone is in good shape again now.

Perhaps they've changed it in newer firmware. I hope so, it annoys me when I end up there unintentionally.

can you post your model number according to the sticker in the battery compartment?
it's weird that it uses Menu + Home + Power

Model: GT-i9000
SSN: -I9000GSMH
Is this what you were interested in?
BB
can some one try these buttons and see if it works?
i read on another topic and some people were able to get in
but i still can't get it to go into Safe Mode
I tried and no luck
i have a 3 button disabled phone
Seems random to me... Sometimes I get safe mode by doing a jig and perform some weird wicca rituals.

Today i restartet my SGS and on the reboot i swyped the Display over my T-Shirt to clean the screen. Even before the Pin-Input showed up, in the left bottom corner i had "safe mode" written. As my intention was not to go into this mode i restartet again.
After this, my widgets didn´t work anymore, so i had to take them of the screen and put them again. And all my well sortet apps in the menu are now unsorted.
But no big deal.
Finally i found out how to go into the Safe-Mode every time you need.
As soon as you start your SGS you have to press for a half a second constantly the left Softkey, meaning don´t have it pressed all the time, but touching it every half a second. When coming to the Pin-Input you cann stop it and you will see on the left bottom corner Safe-Mode!
Very usefull if a third-party Launcher or Widget makes some trouble.
i tried it, it didn't work
Which firmware are you on?

Really? tried it 3 times now and every time i was able to get in. I´m on 2.1 I9000XXJF5
You have to touch the button as soon as the screen shows the Samsung Logo, even when the Softkey only will light up 2-3 seconds after the Power on!
I´ve taken a photo. As my Phone is in german it shows not Safe mode but sichere Modus. But it is the same.
it might be another key for the JH2 ROM
i'll see if i can figure it out, but so far the few methods we've figured out doesn't work on the JH2

Ok thanks for testing. Maybe its like the Recovery mode that doesn´t work on some devices without patching.
i'm hoping that is not the case, but it might be true
I was playing around with the pattern lock and eventually got the 'Too many pattern attempts!' message, with it asking for my Google username and password to log in.
No matter what, it doesn't accept my username/password. I am 100% sure I've typed it in correctly.
This bug has been around for over a year with many people reporting 'bricked' phones without even doing anything particularly naughty with their phones.
This is the Google bug that has been posted on it: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3006#makechanges
As you can see this has been around for over a year. The 'null'-in-password trick doesn't work, nor does the spamming-home-button trick.
My phone is rooted and with the Voodoo Lagfix-only custom kernel. Any suggestions?
Do a hard reset / wipe. That's my suggestion.
Try booting into recovery (Home Button, Vol Up + Power), and resetting your cache and wiping it. Then try logging in with your Google account. If all else fails, try changing your Google password on the PC then logging in on the phone. And then if it still fails, looks like you need to flash the phone again. Next time, don't enter the thing wrong! Stop rushing haha .
I wasn't rushing, I was playing with the lock. It takes about 30 times before it's permanently requiring the username/password. But really...you can't blame me for not expecting this. :/
I'm currently trying to flash a new ROM but I've run into another problem - I can't get it to boot into downloader/recovery. It's not the lack of the 3 button combo - I've managed to reach Recovery and Downloader ONCE each in the past, but never again since.
And now with all my efforts to boot into recovery/downloader, it now cannot boot into normal usability mode (or in my case, locked mode). Instead, the Galaxy S logo loops endlessly.
Sigh.
Have you read the thread for the fix for Galaxy S variants that are lacking the 3 Button Combos? It's in Android Development. Maybe try that? Or, can you still connect the phone and connect with Kies?
I can't turn on the phone anymore, meaning no changing to USB debugging etc. And I'm having problem accessing recovery/download, even though I definitely HAVE done each of them once before and therefore do not have the 3 button problem.
Without turning on my phone, Kies can't detect it
So what happens when you power on?
Now, it shows the first Galaxy S splash screen, then shows the boot logo, then nothing. The boot logo continues to glow endlessly.
Be patient, i waited up to five minutes. If you see the s logo glowing/shining youare ok

Yeah it's continuously shining. Haven't left it for up to five minutes though... And even then it probably won't help since I'm still locked out of the phone, and unable to access download/recovery mode to reflash it.
After waiting for a long time, the logo disappears, screen goes black. Menu and back buttons light up. Nothing else.
Looks like your going to have to reflash your phone again. Download the desired firmware, open up Odin and put your phone into download mode and start the flashing procedure. Be more careful next time.

Good advice considering he said his 3 button combo stopped working =))
All I did when I got that black screen was adb reboot recovery and wiped and phone bootedup fine. But only if you have debuging enable and and sumsung drivers. Hopes this help.

Ok i did the same thing, and spent hours googling.
Tried the key combinations to restore, but never worked.
Heres what worked for me, but, be warned all your contacts will be lost if stored on the phone.
From another phone, call your locked number.
Answer it on the locked phone, then hit the "back" button.
This gives you full access to the phones menus etc.
Hang up on the phone you called from.
Now, go into Applications / Settings / Privacy / Factory Data Reset.
This worked for me whereas all other methods did not.
Once your phone is up and running again, be sure to create your google account on your phone.
That way your protected again. If you didnt previously have the account set up from your phone, like i didnt, then you cannot log in of course.
This works...give it a try. Hope it helps.

dear friend dont worry or panic... i'll tell you a trick , go to the samsung customer care and tell them that your phone gets heated up very often and today it just refuses to boot up normally...
since your device cannot get into recovery mode or download mode the company will never know that you had played with the system files in the device or not... (rooted )..
since the samsung people will also try to get your device in recovery mode.. but when it will not go to the recovery mode you will get a mother board replacement under warranty.....
this heating up of the device is a common problem in the galaxy here in india.. so use this excuse and i know it works 100% ... (just dont tell them that you had rooted and lagfixed your device )
What you describe sounds like a very large security hole if I am reading it correctly.
Are you saying that even if your phone has been locked out from too many lock screen failures, that just answering an incoming phone call gives you full access to the phone? Really?
I just checked on my phone and while I can answer an incoming call while the screen is locked, if I hit the back button or menu button, I just get the lock screen.
I'm missing something here...

chill my dear friend.... it cant be true.... its just his 1st post.. and samsung cannot be so dumb to leave a password protected keypad that can be cracked so easily.. even i tried the back key on a call with a password lock.. i cannot get passed the lock screen....
Ok so not sure what the heck i did but I cannot answer my phone.
It is rooted, and does not have ICS, pretty standard goods.
About 2 days ago i turned on the phone and lots of my on screen apps were gone from the screen, still on the phone but just gone from the scrolling screens.
Phone rings yesterday and i hear it, but the caller ID never pops up and I cannot answer the phone, no option to do so what so ever.
I press the phone icon and it just shows the keypad and again no option to answer the phone.
Something else i noticed is the swipe down options are gone as well. GPS, DATA, etc, it does not even swipe down at all.
Entertaining suggestions
The weekend is here and I REALLY need my phone lol

I tried that before and nothing, i think it may be the rom i have installed.
Sometimes it will just crash and reboot too.
I guess I should go back to the stock rom maybe, but i did a titanium backup before but it did not backup and i lost all of my s memo notes amongst other things.
Grrr
May just donate it to the concrete.

i just get the loading screen from whatever firmware i put on there when i first starting adding roms and so on ages ago

ok, what if you try instead of pressing volume down press volume up and clear data and cache? And then again put it in download mode and try to restart? I am not sure I understand what exactly is you problem...

The problem is that whether i do vol up or vol down it still just cycles and never comes out of that mode.
I have gone and did the data wipe and then vol down and it just cycles and never stops. I recall this issue when i installed the rom but it said it may take time but if longer than 5 min take the battery out and reset. I have done this and nothing.
So now, i did vol up again and i get the Android guy and it reads at the top Odin Mode and downloading, do not turn off target. And this just never does anything.
Cant take it to Orange for fix because it has custom firmware and they will tell me to have a nice day, warranty voided.

Does this work on the NON AT&T version, i live in the UK and have a different version
hey everyone!
my phone went a little crazy by randomly shutting off while using cm10 so I decided to restore to a stock non-root nandroid I made around 8 months ago. Everything went well up until the point I rebooted: I unwittingly had set up a text lockscreen password that I had since then forgotten (who remembers passwords from 8 months ago?!). So I went in CWM, did a factory data reset and rebooted. I turned off the screen and turned it back on to BAM! the lockscreen again... And the fracked up thing is that there isnt even a "forgot password" gmail confirmation option thing at the bottom so I'm completely locked out of my phone! Is there anything I can do other than buy that $4 screen lock bypass exploitation app??
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Maybe try another factory reset (sucks I know) and this time after boot go into security settings and turn off the screen lock before your screen turns off. If you just try and change the password you'll be prompted for the old one first. That being said, I haven't used stock in so long I can't promise this will work either.
Those random reboots you got with CM10 were common with older versions and the other variants such as Pacman, Slimbean, etc, but the latest one I haven't had that happen and I've been using it a week. I only say this because stock is just makes this phone crawl IMO.

Haha, thanks, not an absolute fix but at least it works. Kinda strange since I read that CWM factory resets wipes out everything including lockscreen passes... And my phone wasn't rebooting, it would just shut off randomly, battery would drain at horrifying speeds (from 99% to 0 after a 7 minute phone call) (I also had the latest ver). I was thinking that I could maybe restore stock rom and send it back to samsung or provider since its still under warranty
EDIT: I'm gonna try Samsung Remote Screen Unlock and see if that works. Plus I just checked my battery: It's as swollen as Rosie O'donnell at Mandarin, which explains the crappy battery life.

Yes the easiest way to get rid of cwm is to flash the stock file. Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Exhibit_4G there are, i believe two methods, one using Odin the other flashing something in recovery. Just read. As for cm10.1 camcory is working on it so is smartguy. Even i compiled it but it doesn't boot all the way. Check insomniaforums.org that is probably where it will be posted

CM10.1 boots fine and runs smooth but not yet ready for release. There is a few broken items in it I believe if I recall but cannot restore it due to limited battery till I get home to verify what was wrong. Be patient and when ready public will know about it.

I've recently come across a new issue on my T-mobile Galaxy Note 4 that I haven't seen before. I've been searching online as well and can't seem to find anyone else posting about this problem either. I'm not the best but I have some experience. I've recently rooted and flashed tekxodus hybrid n4 5 1 1 rom on my note 4 through TWRP recovery. It took a few tries but everything worked. After using it for 3 days, I decided to turn it off and hard reboot it which I've done plenty of times before. But this time, upon rebooting it starts up and shows the tmobile logo screen and turns black. Vibrates twice as if you plugged it into the charger but remains black, and stays that way. If i plug it into the charger it shows the green battery screen and charges normally. I can enter twrp recovery and download mode as well. But it just can't get past the logo screen. I've also tried using a different note 4 battery from other videos, clearing the cache, delvik-cache, but nothing seems to work. As earlier mentioned, I can't seem to find any other post with this exact problem so I've come to reddit for help. Thank you in advance for any feedback.
You try flashing backup/ Odin stock?

Yeah, I knew since I could still get into TWRP Recovery and download mode I'd still be able to reflash stock roms. After I did, I did notice that the first "T-Mobile" logo screen lasted a bit longer than it did while it was messed up. I'm still not entirely sure what went wrong, but my only guess is that Tekxodus roms incorporate a app called synapse(possibly rom specific). I think I changed options in it which allowed me to overclock the cpu. I did reboot it a number of times after I set that up, but maybe something was stepped on through game editing apps which create/change app data. But it definitely pays to have back-ups to everything. Thanks for the reply too btw
Try flashing another kernel, sounds like that could be the culprit

Yeah, I knew since I could still get into TWRP Recovery and download mode I'd still be able to reflash stock roms. After I did, I did notice that the first "T-Mobile" logo screen lasted a bit longer than it did while it was messed up. I'm still not entirely sure what went wrong, but my only guess is that Tekxodus roms incorporate a app called synapse(possibly rom specific).
