G1 Freezing A Lot!

Hey, before i post this question, i will have you know that i searched first and found one post similar to mines but there was no confirmed solution to it. Anyways, My friend has a rooted g1 and out of no where, his phone started to lag alot and freeze up. Especially when he would open up to use his physical keyboard. He tried 3 different roms, they all have same results. He even tried unrooting using dreamimg.nbh and same problem.. any suggestions would be helpful.. Thanks in advance!

Back up your data and format the card, restore the files and wipe/flash the Rom.
Has fixed some issues I have had
Try another SD Card if the above does not fix it, it might be going bad.
Legend221 just curious but wat issues were you having?

Stuck on Registering after Unrooting

hi everyone. i've been following the forum here for awhile and finally decided to root my brand new NC. i autorooted from 1.1. i saw some things weren't working so i quickly decided to unroot back to factory settings. i unrooted by unregistering the device and turning off the power 8 times. my NC boots up fine, but it gets stuck on the "Registering your Device" page and just remains there with the circle spinning. i think i left it there for more than 30 minutes and nothing happens. has anyone experienced this before? if so, how did you fix it? any help would be appreciated.
sorry if this topic has already been asked - i tried searching but didn't find anything on this specific issue. if there's already a thread, please feel free to share the link with me. thank you!
EDIT: really need some help here... i tried to fix it myself (i know i shouldn't have) and might have made it even worse. i tried to re-autoroot my NC but just completely failed. it was not loading anything anymore, so i tried to unroot again by powering off 8 times. when i restarted, everything looked normal, except the bootloader screen was not stock. it brought me back through the normal tutorial and same thing with it getting stuck on "registering your device". could someone please provide a thorough walkthrough on how to reset to factory settings? i'm seeing all these threads throwing around all these acronyms that i don't understand. seems like i need to try running some clockwork rom but not even sure how to do that. please help!!
Bump, i have just encountered this problem and i need help as well.
Update:
actually just figured it out and heres what fixed my problem, i wasn't doing the factory reset part only the 8 reboot interruptions.

Thanks for your post, even though no one ever helped. I was having the same problem and doing a clear data/factory reset from Clockwork Recover booted from an SD card did the trick for me.

PROBLEM: Galaxy Ace flashed with Korean ROM for SHW-M240S

Hi All, I have done something stupid and now my ACE is a little bit broken.
After flash procedure with ODIN and Korean rom for SHW-M240S, my IMEI was changed and on a main screen appears sw number. So phone is working but different IMEI persist and this stupid RED sw number on a wallpaper
I was flashing back my phone with a lot of different roms, reset to factory values and still the same. Maybe full recovery from CODEROM could help, the problem is that i don't make backup Hope to find kind user, who will make a clean backup and send it to me... I'm just a girl and probably this is real problem

Why were you flashing a Korean Firmware anyway? You might get away with flash european roms on india or south american aces. But the korean ace has a different feature set. I think you have to restore nv ram which stores the IMEI. Maybe someone with experience with the matter will be able to help.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
Hope that i find someone with experience
Hey!

Still nothing, in Service Menu i have found menu "rebuild NV", so i did it but my IMEI are still corrupted.

Hey!
Try to flash to ..XKC1 firmware-s(try first ASIAN one, then european). They must be STOCK ONES from samfirmware. I hope it helps(if nothing helps, JUST TRY THEM ALL). SORRY! Still fingers crossed for you phone!
CHEERS!
Thanks for quick reply, i will try it now, hope it can help.
Still the same I think thats all what can i do without clear copy of recovery from other ACE.

Hey, iv got the same problem. Please help us! :-(
I was looking for similar files in European and Korean software... File amss, which is in MODEM tar archive looks suspicious... In all European roms this file has the same size, in Korean rom it's bigger. Maybe it overwrites something important in ACE?
Im trying everything and searching everywhere but still found nothing :-(
maybe someone advise if this helps https://opensource.samsung.com/reception/reception_main.do?method=reception_search&searchValue=S5830
Same here.
one solution is installing VillainRom, there is no sys info on display. interesting!

Factory reset...

I read over and over through the forums about bugs on 5.1.. As long as I've been "playing" with phones, that's the first thing you do.... So to everyone having problems first make sure you do a factory reset. I have less problems using factory recovery, then install twrp ..... Then if your having problems check your boot loader version..... If those don't work then ask for help. It really sucks for us to read through the same questions over and over... It's not hard to skim through the pages first also.. If you have the problem someone else probably had also... I hope I put this in the right part of the forum

Sorry, need help.

so, i am extremely new to this and i failed miserably. I tried rooting my phone and i guess it didn't work and now i have a reboot recovery loop. Tried fixing that and now i have a firmware upgrade encountered an issue. So I tried using odin and your files here, but it just keeps failing. So i am lost. Don't know what to do next. Maybe it's the driver idk. I have a S5 SM-G900A. Please help. Thanks. OH i just found this random post, because i am in need of some help. Sorry in advance if i sound dumb.
well thanks anyway
I figured it out. Took me a while. Sadly I'm back to step one.
