Hi Guys
I am hoping that someone might be able to help me.
I have a Galaxy S+ that just randomly reboots. It is running 2.3.3 i believe (Friend is using the phone atm)
I got the phone on contract and actually went through 5 phones (and entire stores stock) only to find that all of them have this issue.
No i believe that its a software problem and not hardware as Samsung themselves have said nothing about it and the Samsung Specialist @ Vodacom (my cellular provide) has said that there isn't anything that they have heard or that they know of.
I have already rooted the phone, obviously the problem was happening before the rooting of it.
So my question is that does anyone think if i updated the rom to 2.3.6 or whatever else is available it might fix the problem?
I would prefer to keep the rom stock but will go with idea's that anyone would have.
Secondly where would i be able to get updated stock Samsung i9001 roms?
O really wanna give me gf this phone at the end of the month so please if someone could help me i would appreciate it!
Many thanks in advance

i'm not sure about the rebooting problem, but 2.3.3 had other problems in my country, u couldn't send an sms if u had 3G ON , so t-mobile updated all the devices to 2.3.5 , it might be a sign that 2.3.3 has some bugs. my opinion would be to flash one of the stock roms out there , or check if u have an update through kies (although i don't recommend updating with kies as there's a big chance it will freeze during instalation - ya , another crappy samsung software).
Thanks mate i think i will def but i am looking for a uk stock rom?
All i can find is german and polish and balkin.

it depends on what u're looking for, i personally prefer stock with a few tweaks here and there. u can check the custom roms available in our dev section, it's not a big choice ,but u can see if any of them suit ur needs.
sudden restart
i am new around here,i got a i9001 and it sudden restarts on every rom i installed, costom or stock. first i taught that it restarts because of its ram, like the memory dump on pc, but then i saw, that i rebooted it and after 10-15 min it sudden restarted. i've been to my carrier for warranty, and what they did it was only a flash of rom version 2.3.6 and they gave it back to me. after about 2 hours since i got it back, it did the sudden restart again. srry for my english.

I tried xxkpu and xxkq1, no problem so far.
If your phone is under warranty, ask for replacing new one.

they said when the phone came back "the phone did not present the problem sent for" on the warranty paper. They know about this problem, but they dont wanna lose money with extra costs for i9001 owners, it was a mistake made by samsung on this model and they dont want to assume it. I read more about this snapdragon oc processor used on i9001 (1.4 Ghz) and it says that it overheats sometimes rarely in first months, but after some heavily daily use it enters a restart loop ( probably after your warranty expires) and the phone becomes useless. sorry to say that for i9001 owners.
"Recently, a growing number of smartphone users experience temperature-related CPU failures that seem to be inherent in Snapdragon-powered devices, and typically manifest only after several months of smartphone use. Symptoms of this hardware failure are unexpected reboots of the phone, especially in higher ambient temperatures and under high CPU load and/or Wifi use. The phone may then enter a "reboot-cycle", which can only be stopped by removing the battery and cooling the phone. Over the period of several weeks or months, this behavior becomes increasingly frequent and occurs at progressively lower ambient temperatures and CPU loads, until it reaches a point where the phone can only be used in refrigerated and/or air-conditioned environments. It is speculated that deteriorating solder bonds of the BGA matrix (i.e., a lost connection between the Snapdragon-CPU and its motherboard) due to thermal stresses occurring in normal operation is the underlying problem for these failures, and CPU re-heating procedures have been proposed to remedy this problem, but so far with mixed results.[23] These hardware issues have not yet been officially acknowledged by companies that use the Snapdragon processor in their smartphones, even though a very large number of devices (HD2, Desire, Evo, Droid Incredible, Xperia, Galaxy S, etc.) seem to be affected. "
this thing is copied from a romanian site, which was meant to be a review for the snapdragon processors.
Sorry for beeing that silly, but did you resetted your phone?
sure I did, like i said, i tryed everything possible, formattin' partions, hard reset, wipe dalvik cache..

Yes you can. There are lots of useful posts here guiding you through and holding your hand, but *you* need to spend 5 minutes looking for them, OK?
I don't know which ROM you are on, but generally GB has been very reliable. You might wish to reflash the rom or flash another version.
As a start, look at this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Thank you very much for your help
Thank you very much for your help. I forgot to write that I don't know how to flash phone via PC. I never did it with galaxy note. I don't know which rom I have, is any link to video or info for a people which are not familiar with such things ? Thank you. All about this root-ing looks wrong for me, I need just to update to older version from uk, I don't see any uk update, and all it looks difficult for me ! I need to update do 2.3.5 without brick effect...

Your request does require you to take time reading and trying out. Probably 2 hours of reading/learning time, 1 hour installation of software and trying out.
If you are at all unsure about any of this or if it's simply too much hard work, take your phone back to a Samsung Care Point and explain your problem. They will reflash it for you.

there is no such thing.
And why don't you try it for yourself? you will get to experience it first hand. And if your scared then don't use odin or cwm or even rooting because there are always risks involved in these.

The SGSII v8.1 patch u r talking about is jst a patch for the COmplete v8 ROM. it has recently been updated to v9 and it really is a gud ROM the Battery life is also better in the LAtest Release and it is almost stock based so u won't find A WHOLE LOT of UI changes on your ACe jst additions, and the PErformance is also gud.
other than this, you can try the MIracle ROM it is also a wonderful ROM bt as it is performance based, u can't expect a battery life of 1 day
As you roam around the forums you will learn slowly by trying and testing stuff.
Ohh and ACTUALLY, there is NO perfect ROM
Hello, last night i have installed cyanogenmod 9 on my galaxy s plus, GT-i9001 with cwm6.
I haven't done any backup or anything and I would like to go back to the original firmware, gingerbread.
Can someone explain if it's possible and how? Thx
Guys, please, I really need help with that issue... I don't want my phone to be broken after 2 months... Just explain how to delete cyanogenmod9 and reinstall the original firmware I had on my phone please

If you'd read a little before flashing your phone, you'd have known that you can't ever revert to stock ROM if you haven't done a backup previously..
JK.. But RTFT!

You should read the whole wiki.
There are instructions for flashing with ODIN... You should download a stock firmware (also look at wiki) and then flash it.
Nex time, don't install something if you don't know what it does
Why you want to delete cm9 ? Personally i use it from he was pre-alpha (aproximatively 5 months ago) and my phone isn't broken and it's running normaly and better than in gb. Now in cm9 aren't big bugs and it can be use as daily rom. Finally it's your choice . If you want to go back to the original firmware use wiki page it's very usefull. Good luck :good:
Hi guys, apologies if I'm a noob here, I'm having a few problems with my old SIII mini VE (i8200N). It was working fine, but in trying to flash a new ROM I've come a bit unstuck.
The phone has working recovery, which I was using to flash the ROM, it is TWRP v2.7.0.1, kinda old, but I can't find a better version unfortunately - if anyone has one I would appreciate it. Or indeed a different and better recovery, if you don't have TWRP.
Everytime I flash a ROM I get a message 'Kernel does not have support for reading SELInus contexts' - it says it is installing but ends super-quick, and nothing has changed. I have tried a few different ROMs always same kessage (and yes, I am aware of the difference between Golden and this version of the phone - the ROMs are compatible).
I can get the phone to respond to ADB and ODIN, so I'm generally OK, just have no OS at the moment. Tried sideloading it, but no joy.
I wouldn't mind having the original UK firmware back but sadly I can't get it back off the sammobile site - without some horrible file-share trying to install malware. Again, a copy would be great.
I can flash root, no problem, just not the actually ROM itself.
I wouldn't mind putting something decent on it, Lineage or RR or CM but I would settle right now just for a working phone!
I appreciate any help
:good:
