Hi guys,
I have been searching the forums for 2 weeks now trying to fix this myself, but I have put my pride in my pocket and am asking for help.
Backstory: Rooted phone, flashed CWM, used tons of custom froyo ROM's (doc roms mainly) and most recently Darky's 9.3 (awesome).
But then i decided I wanted Gingerbread (this is where the trouble began). Gingerbread worked just fine, but as there is no custom roms, I flashed back to 2.2 (obviosly screwed something up), because since then I have been plagued with process com.whatever.android.somethingelse has stopped unexpectedly. please try again.
please don't ask which force close message I am getting, lets just say, I am pretty sure I am getting them all!
I have flashed stock 2.1, custom 2.1, stock 2.2, custom 2.2's, I even went back to gingerbread a few times trying to fix this ***** of a problem. I tried re partitioning just the .pit file and then the other 3 files seporatly. NOTHING WORKS.
So, I am calling out to all you guys and girls who are heaps smarter than me to please help. the phone functions, turns on, make or receive calls and texts (not mms), emails work sometimes, but if I turn the phone off and on all the settings are wiped and I need to reload all the user details.
Oh, I should also add another major issue, I cannot use the internal memory for anything, I cannot take pictures unless I select the external SD card, I cannot install apps from market or .apk. I cannot even move data to it when its mounted on the pc.
I am completely lost. please help me.
And thanks in advance.
I
C'mon guys, I know there is a lot to read, but please, can no-body help me?
Sounds like it might be a dead internal sd card. You said you tried a re-partition with 3 file firmware? That should fix pretty much anything. I think your only option is to return to samsung at this point.

Thanks for the response.
is it possible to fix myself?
As Samsung will not cover it, even if I flash the stock Telstra ROM, it will still show that it has been rooted?
In doing your research, I'm sure you've heard of the internal SD problems that plague the i9000, are you by chance with Bell Mobility? This line concerns me..
"Oh, I should also add another major issue, I cannot use the internal memory for anything"
When I experienced multiple FCs (force closes) and incompatible system UID's, I tried flashing every kind of ROM there was with every kind of PIT file as well to no avail. However, one in particular worked for me and others. It is usually referred to as a full ROM. It contains the .csc and .sbl in it as well as the usual ROM contents.
The ROM I used is called FULL-i9000UGJH2.tar. Note, flashing this ROM with a pit file (be it 512, 513, or 803) wouldn't help me at all. What fixed the problem was flashing ONLY the ROM file in ODIN. Unfortunately, I can't find the thread where I found this ROM. I suggest searching around for it, if you can't find it PM me, and I will up it somewhere for you.
I'm not sure if this will help with your specific case, but its worth a shot. Also, wherever applicable, do a factory reset, clear your cache, and a full wipe install.
Good luck.
[edit]
Do a complete wipe and install with a stock 2.2 or 2.1 ROM in ODIN, there will be no evidence of a root.

Thanks for this dude, I will start my search for that rom.
I do a factory reset, wipe cache and data every time, however after doing all of that and flashing a new rom, it still has my google account details in the phone?? this is wierd, as I factory reset from recovery mode AND wipe all data from within the phone? Any suggestions?
Edit: and no, its is an Australian Telstra i9000

Hmm, that is odd. How are you flashing your ROMs, using CWM? Have you used ODIN before?

I am using odin, this is the wierd part. I have tried repartitioning, not repartitioning, I have tried 512.pt 803.pit, full wipe and reset from both in the phones settings and recovery mode. reboot it, go through settup wizzard (which eventually force closes requiring me to reboot), go into accounts and there is my google account still set up???
Edit: also, I cannot find a file called FULL-i9000UGJH2.tar, I am downloading i9000UGJH2.tar as we speak, but i doubt it is the one you were reffering to, if you are able to point in in the right direction, that would be ace.
Cheers

If you're entering your gmail address in during the setup wizard, our google account will be linked. If you're not setting anything up and it is remembering your info, then something is definitely fishy.
I would flash back to a stock rom, and see what Samsung or your provider can do for you. In all honesty, the only thing I would be able to suggest is flashing and wiping
[edit]
When you download that ROM, open it up (using a program like WinRAR). The point of a full rom is that it contains
-cache.rfs
-dbdata.rfc
-factoryfs.rfs
-modem.bin
-param.lfs
-sbl.bin
-zimage
I'm unsure of any incompatibilities between the Canadian and Australian versions, but I will upload my copy for you to try.

could it be something to do with the file system gingerbread uses? these issues only started when I went back from gingerbread to froyo? (and before you ask, I have tried going back to gingerbread with no solution)
I may have to bite the bullet and shoot it back to Samsung... or just buy another one! would love to try FULL-i9000UGJH2.tar if you could remember where you got it?
Thanks again for your help.

I seem to have remembered it being in this thread, which is why i had it on bookmark, but I'm not sure if the link has been removed or if i had been mistaken since I can no longer find it. I'm uploading for you to Rapidshare, where you can download as a free user...~30 mins . Again, I'm not sure if there are modem incompatibilities or not since this I am in Canada, and you are in Australia.
Another place to check may be here...

Mate that would be great, I am not too fussed about compatibility at this stage, just want to get access to the internal sd again, then I can flash one of the many working froyo roms I have.

The way you're referring to accessing this internal SD....are you flashing your ROMs to an external microsd card?
Here is the full UGJH2 that I flashed (with no other options) that saved me.

No, by accessing my SD, i mean being able to download ansd install apps (and things like that). also, just tried to remove my google (gmail) account from my phone, and it wouldn't let me, it keeps force closing.
Thanks for the upload mate, I really appreciate it, currently downloading it, will let you know.

Hey mate, no go, i got some functionality back on the phone, but still force closes and I cannot save anything to SD (or install apps).
another email account (an exchange server account) that was previously deleted has appeared back set up and working (I have not been able to set this up for a week), it appeared on its own which leads me to think there is a hidden partition on my internal sd, hence I cannot access it. must be something to do with Gingerbread.
Thanks for all your help though.

Edit: It just completely crashed again, force closes just about everything that is open, phone functionality is gone (phone icon vanished) as did contacts. freezes for a couple of minutes and then reboots. i may have to throw it at a wall!
I cannot find anything about the gingerbread partition that would cause problems with froyo. damn this thing!!!

Hi mate,
I have tried that several times, i think there is a hidden partition thanks to Gingerbread.
I would be sure that your internal sd card is screwed but since everything worked fine before gingerbread something else has probably happened. Also your data wont delete and that seems to be the source of the problem. Try to install the lagfix from k13d and see if it had any results. This should reformat all partitions on the internal sd.

My suggestion would be to wipe data, possible flash back to stock, or just wipe data and play around with some different radio's. I've had similar issues, not as bad as yours, but different radio seemed to fix it.
I'm in in canada, east, on telus. I'm using the fascinate with galaxy i9000 rom/kernel/radio. I find the best radio's to be the KG2, KG3, and KC3.
Have you used any apps to disable permissions? like autostarts, one time I had an issue where my phone wouldn't dial any calls in my own area code. I found out it was autostarts, and a permission I had enabled.
-Maniac
Think that permissions are enabled, as far as I can see.
Problem is that I'm noob on this area, I got this phone with darky on it.
When you say to wipe data, on which data do you mean and how to do that?
how to flash? Where can I find stock rom and some tutorial?
thank you

I would start with testing some different modems. This is pretty simple, and might just fix your problem.
When I say wipe, I mean a factory reset. I'm not familier with that rom, but in the settings their should be something to do a factory reset.
A sure way would be to boot clockworkmod, select the option to do a wipe/factory reset.
Note, both of the above methods will wipe your apps/data. Perhaps your SDcard as well. So if anything is important, I would do a backup.
Perhaps you should do a nandroid backup anyways, just incase it don't fix your problem and you won't waste any more time have to reinstall everything and set it all up again.
Okay, so I'm new to everything Android in general, so all of this is very confusing to me, so I'm going to be as specific and in-depth as possible.
I'm using an HTC Vivid on AT&T and I just recently flashed CM 11, and I absolutely LOVE it, except for two problems.
The first has been widely acknowledged, and it's the problems with MMS. On the stock ROM, MMS was sometimes a problem, but that was usually because the Vivid had mobile data problems in general (problems which I still have not encountered on CM 11, which is good news). It happened that when the Vivid couldn't send or receive MMS, it also couldn't use the mobile data at all, and this was usually fixed by a reboot (which was a pain because ICS had that bug where it would always "optimize apps" every reboot). This was the problem I first suspected, except I tested the use of mobile data in other apps, and they worked perfectly, leading me to believe that this is not the same problem. Data usage works fine, it's a specifically MMS problem.
The second issue is something that I haven't seen addressed yet, so I guess it's a problem that only I have come across. I can't use the camera at all, because every time I try to open it, it says I need to insert an SD card. Now I know nothing about technology, so is it referring to the internal SD card, or the external? I have an external SD card for the phone, and it works with the Apollo music app and such, so I'm not sure if that's where it's supposed to be going. I can't even take pictures or record videos, because it won't let me, since I don't have an SD card apparently. Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks everyone for any help or advice you can offer.
EDIT: I'm guessing the camera problem is an internal storage thing, because my phone registers no internal storage at all. Nor does TWRP, it doesn't register an internal storage either. I'm still at a loss at how to fix this problem.
Did you flash the most recent nightly, or the most recent stable? Probably a useless question, as the latest stable should be fine as far as the internal storage and everything (and I'm on the 1-28 nightly, which is not giving me any internal storage problems). I recommend flashing back to stock and seeing if the problem persists, because if so, then your problem is most likely not the CM11 rom. If the stock rom does not have any problems with your internal storage, then flash to the latest nightly of albinoman's CM11 and see if that does the trick.
Just to be extra careful, you are wiping the "data", "cache", and "dalvik-cache" using TWRP, then rebooting to the bootloader and flashing the boot.img from the zip file through fastboot, then flashing the zip file using TWRP, right? The order of wiping and flashing the boot.img can be switched, but they must be done before flashing the rom to try to prevent weird errors happening. Not trying to sound condescending, I just want to eliminate all possible causes.

Hi guys,
Thanks for the replies, and sorry I'm so late, I had a few things to take care of over the weekend.
Anyway, good news, I solved the problem with internal storage by wiping the internal storage from within TWRP (didn't really know what I was doing, which is probably a bad thing, but it worked so I'm happy). Now the camera app works cleanly and everything.
The MMS problem continues to stump me, however. I've tried different APNs, different solutions that everyone has recommended, no luck. I will continue to search for a way to solve the problem
Thanks again.

Actually, one more question. Was I really supposed to flash the boot.img first? Everything I read said to do it the other way around.... What kind of problems would that have caused? Maybe that's where I made an error, I flashed the rom first and then the boot.img afterwards.

Y'know, looking at it again it probably doesn't matter, given the differing instructions here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2423277) and here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524934). The main reason they would have you flash the boot.img first is because it may not let you boot into the rom, but as long as you go from flashing the rom to flashing the boot.img without booting up the rom, it should be fine.

You would have flashed it at some point in time, so it sounds like you didn't. I would do a clean flash of your ROM and not install any mods and see if Wi-Fi works. Is your firmware up to date?
And
Click on "More" and take a screenshot so I can see your baseband version.

It's posted above Idk what I should flash to make a clean stock backup with all my root an stuff though
I found this correct on any forum rules I apologize but http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2795823 I found this but I am on a much newer baseband as my phone accidentally caught an ota before I s off 'd with sunshine and it's like 3.18 so I can't use it not sure ..what to do..
http://themikmik.com/showthread.php...2-16-651-4-OTA&p=299475&viewfull=1#post299475 I found this...
Use this ROM:

Make sure you do a full wipe in recovery beforehand.
Okay I finished flashing but my WiFi isn't working still but the phone is fresh can I flash something now to fix it?
Does fulll wipe mean I have to do a total internal sd wipe? As well if so I need to backup I wiped and installed and hboot installed the radio stuff from throwbacks posts correspond ing firmware still no WiFi.... Ughh

No, just data, system, cache & Dalvik cache.
Any other suggestions like a new kernel and Rom deodexed I should do my WiFi remains unworking so troublesome
I would RUU back to stock and if it still continues to not work then you're most likely looking at a hardware issue.
You try selecting connect on your saved Wi-Fi? I know I've had my Wi-Fi not automatically connect sometimes.
Yea but then it just doesn't connect after for like a second saying connecting but then it wont
Is there a difference between ruu and hboot flashing radio I'm just hang in out with throwbacks stock deodex and also have firmware zip maybe I did it in wrong order? Hmm it seems like maybe just my WiFi connection got disabled but not any other WiFi ... I'm going to double check that
has any one been having any trouble with their wifi on their nexus 6, randomly the wifi toggle will stop working the toggle will be off and it still says "Turning Wi-Fi on..." i've booted into recovery and cleared cache and rebooted the phone and it worked the first time and it's been acting up again and this time clearing the cache isn't working does anyone else have any ideas without doing a factory reset.

maybe try just flashing the system img, then wipe cache's again before booting. if that doesnt work, its may be time for the dreaded fdr.
I've never been into flashing system img & fdr? It's just sad because I had the same issue before also losing signal with my device. Til I got a replacement and the replacement device is starting to act up also.

my only other suggestion would be to re-flash. you could try just the system partition, but if it were me i would just go all in for full clean flash.
im sure Simms will get on me for saying so, but you can just grab wugs toolkit and be done in 20min or so.

I've never flashed before i know from what i hear its really easy for Nexus devices. but i'm just curious what would of caused this like from my first N6 since December and it acts up now in Sept and having the replacement N6 acting up the same way.
Is it rooted with mods or completely stock? If stock, try deleting the saved wireless networks..

these random issues usually come from a corrupt file, either by an update or some other means. its hard to impossible to pinpoint the cause usually.
if you never flashed before, its best to read up on it a bit first. wugs walks you through the steps, from downloading the files, and drivers, to the flashing. its not foolproof, but if you follow the lead of the script, its not hard to figure out.

well i have before but that was so long ago and that was for my MyTouch and HTC Sensation but that was years ago. Now I know things are easier but I've never really been into flashing and the only reason I did back then was for updates and different version of Sense UI but since I've been using Nexus Devices I didn't have a need or desire to actually flash. Pretty much I'm a NOOB! :laugh:
but I don't see why wouldn't a factory reset fix it. even if it was temp.

a factory reset only deletes data, it does not restore any of the file system to its original state.

clearing the cache is always a good idea, i think i suggested that earlier.
i dont know how to explain well what cache is exactly, its not part of the file system, its more like temp data storage i believe.

def of cache from google
"In cell phones and networks, a cache usually refers to a memory storage area in the phone or network that stores copies of information that is likely to be needed in the near future, so it can be accessed faster."

thats pretty consistent with what i said earlier. these type of issues frequently arise after updates. files dont update exactly right and something gets corrupted.

i decided to call T-Moblie and talk to them they told me to take it to a store and get it dianogsed and they will call to get it replaced since it is the 64GB and stores don't have it.... I just want the Wi-Fi to work even though i don't use it all the time but still.
