Ok, try to turn on the phone pressing VOLUME DOWN+HOME+POWER and see if the phone goes in Download Mode.

Then, follow the guides that you can find in the forum and flash with ODIN a new ROM (I suggest JS8 if you're in EUROPE, Froyo 2.2.1)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NCSoft:
Download Mode work ? 3 buttons holding Vol down+home+power
[Galaxy S I9000 General] superstrongboy:
I had darky's ressurection edition rom and i had it on froyo.

i want to go back to any firmware version that will get my phone working :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] superstrongboy:
yeah it goes into download mode

. I live in canada.

can you please link me to the proper firmware for Canada's bell SGS? and possibly if there's a guide on how to go back because i m a total noob.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bobloblawsum:
Here is a link to the official stock Bell JL2 firmware, there is a slightly newer one but i can't find the link and this should work fine.

You will need to use Odin to flash the file

*edit; forgot the link. http://www.multiupload.com/UTFJCCIP5H
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SteveStalker:
download a stock Eclair or Froyo Rom from samfirmware.com with (512.pit,PDA,MODEM,CSC) get in download mode (vol up+power+menu all at the same time) flash via ODIN DO NOT UNPLUG wait till full flash make shure you have at least 60% battery left before flashing

if it dosen't work search around you'll find some methods its not bricked its just in a continuous loop
[Galaxy S I9000 General] superstrongboy:
i tried flashing with that link you gave, but ODIN doesnt do anything after this

<ID:0/004> Added!!

<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..

<ID:0/004> File analysis..

<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bobloblawsum:
Did you add the tar file to the PDA section of Odin? That should be all that's needed in odin, no repartition, no pit file and the Tar file that was extracted from the Zip file placed in the PDA section of odin.

I forgot to add, did you run Odin as an administrator?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] superstrongboy:
yeah i did that it wasnt moving forward.

then i disconnected and now when i press HOME+VOL. UP+POWER or only power button, i get the [Phone -- ! -- PC] symbol. i can still go into download mode idk what to do im so screwed.

yeah i m running odin as admin
[Galaxy S I9000 General] superstrongboy:
i flashed that firmware onto my phone.

now all it does is freeze at the Galaxy S screen and vibrates randomly. what do?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bobloblawsum:
Here is the thread where i got the link to the Rom from, i'm reading through it now to see if there are any similar problems http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=883568
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bobloblawsum:
According to post #45 on that thread you should flash the rom with the 'Phone Bootloader Update' option checked.

I'm not 100% certain on that and don't want to give you some wrong advice but if i remember right, it was the new bootloader in JL2 that fixed the SD card problems that the Bell vibrants had. It's up to you if you want to try flashing the file with that option checked. Unless you get some better advice.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NCSoft:
had u ever upgrade to 2.3.3 ?

try those roms

UGJL2/BMCJL2/UGJL2 (North America for I9000M only)

UGKC1/BMCKC1/UGKC1 (North America for I9000M only)

i dont have any link atm , i will search about that and i will edit my post
[Galaxy S I9000 General] superstrongboy:
nope i havent ever upgraded to 2.3.3

and if i take my bricked phone to the store, will they replace it? I still am under the warranty period
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bobloblawsum:
They'll send it off to the repair centre and try to determine and fix the problem. If they think the problem was caused by you then they might try to charge you a fee for fixing it.

Have you installed Kies on your laptop before (just to know if you have the samsung drivers that come with it installed)

If it has come to the point where you're thinking of bringing it to the store then, personally, i would try flashing the JL2 rom with the update bootloader option checked. That's just what i'd do personally though.

It could also be something simple like trying to flash it from a different usb port.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] superstrongboy:
THANK YOU SO MUCHHHH!!!!! I DID IT AND ITS WORKING NOW!!! YAYAAAAYAAAAAAAAY CANT TElL YOU HOW HAPPY I AM LOL you're a life saver mate.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] olivercervera:
Yea, that was the problem; now I remember! Some months ago, I had your same problem (an apparent brick, vibrating on the big S at the startup). A user suggested me to simply flash a FW with a Bootloader (at the time, the JPU), ad it worked ^^
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bobloblawsum:
Haha, no problem! glad to help :)

i was in the same position a few months ago and the JL2 rom helped me out. I keep a copy of it on my harddrive to use if things go tits up again.

Ok guys hopefully this is an easy fix. My wife's driod inc, previously mine before the TB, has random restarts.....I think it might be my radio but I dunno if you can help it would be greatly appreciated .... Specs below.

Model ADR6300

Android version 2.3.3

BB or radio 2.15.00.09.01

Kernel 2.6.37.4 cyanogenmod + slayher hb #27

Mod version cyanogenmod 7.0.2.1-inc

Cm7 stable release

Oh and if it is my radio could you give me a link of radios that play nice with cm7
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tired of the Bull:
The only restarts I've suffered have been related to wireless tethering and a quick search of a couple sites doesn't show much about that version of radio causing problems.

[Desire HD General] bobuk:
Hi Guys,

Wondering if anyone could help? I think I may have turned my DHD into an expensive mp3 player! I don’t seem able to connect to any mobile network :( Apart from that the DHD functions perfectly (working wifi/gps) - it has been working fine in the past

I can’t make/receive any calls / text message. When I try to connect to a mobile network I receive the following error:

- If I choose the network manually myself (o2 for me) I get "Your sim card does not allow a connection to this network"

- If I try going for the automatic option I get "Unable to connect to this network at this time. Please try again later."

- I'm also getting the notification every 10 minutes to "Set current time" - I don't know if this is related but I assume so since both issues started at the same time!

The problem occurred when I decide to give RCMix a go through ROM Manager. It appeared to flash fine and was running smooth and quick until I noticed a few hours later I had no mobile connection :( I'd done this a few times before with RC 7 and CoreDroid and hadn’t experienced an issue before.

First thing I tried was to recover to my previous setup before the flash (using ROM Manager) - the phone restored however the mobile network still remained unresponsive! ...this was the same for all my previous backups. I tried clearing cache and dalvik-cache. I even tried reformatting the phone at one point.

I know it's a fault with the phone and not the sim, I'm just not sure what. I've tried my sim card in another DHD and it worked fine. I have also tried different o2 sim, an orange, vodaphone and T-mobile sim card in my phone – all of which give the same problem.

I’ve tried resorting the phone with a few different RUU’s, and even a German one just because it was o2 branded and I’m on contract with them:

- RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed

- RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.72.405.3_R_Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_release_161342_signed

- RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.72.405.3_R2_Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF_release_163262_signed

- RUU_Ace_O2_DE_1.32.207.1_Radio_12.28a.60.140e_26.03.02.08_M_release_153755_signed

I then re-rooted the phone with the use of Visionary+.

I’ve tried turning the radio off then back on, both by switching airplane mode and by using the hidden option *#*#4636#*#* and I’ve also tried re-flashing the radio and even a different more up-to-date radio:

- Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M (original)

- Radio_12.39.60.19_26.06.04.06_M

I’ve checked out the APN and it appears to be correct for o2.

I’ve done simpler things like restarting / powering off, removing the battery, re-seating the sim, re-seating the sdcard and booting without the sdcard!

All in all I’m running low on idea’s :( Could anyone please help or throw some idea’s at me, it would be very much appreciated!

Thank you.

Did you try on your phone pad to type *#06# in order to check your IMEI?Do it and check on your phone's box that they are the same
[Desire HD General] Andy:
Double check your SIM card slot to see if its clear of any debris. Other than that, there is a definite fault. Was your handset originally branded?

Sounds like a blacklisted imei.

HTC HD2 with error connecting to the network problem

I have the same problem! I bought a phone from ebay "new" and I have not been able to connect to my network AT&T. The phone has android gingerbread 2.3.2 Nand, and I have tried everything in the book to see if I can connect to the network but to no avail. I have been going on forums for the last three days, and if anything, I just want to know what is wrong with the phone. My sim works on other phones fine. There is enough signal in the area (ive always had signal where I live), and tried resetting, taking the battery off, flashing different roms, even went back to Winmo and nothing has worked yet. My IMEI on the phone was different from the one the box, but was the same on the phone as on the inside IMEI.

WHat the heck is going on? Please ideas or help!
[Desire HD General] bobuk:
Hi Guys,

Thanks for the quick replies...

Yes sorry I forgot to mention this part - I tried *#06# and both numbers matched on screen and under the battery hood. I also had the IMEI checked to see if it was blacklisted and it has not...

Tried clearing the slot, there is no visible signs of blockage... also I bought the handset second hand - I've never seen any branding however when I bought it the previous owner did tell me it was previously locked to vodaphone and he had rooted it so that he could use other sims cards. Which is why I orginally tried a vodaphone sim card too.

Thanks for your suggestions so far guys :)
[Desire HD General] bobuk:
Just a quick update, I've been grasping at straws and I've also tried a few more bits below, none of which have worked... I think I may have to leave this one to rest. Just wanted to let others know who may be experiencing the same issues

Matching radio and RIL as mentioned here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1040986

Replacing the mtd0.img as mentioned here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=691639
[Desire HD General] Andy:
It sounds like a fault. If it was network barred you would still receive a signal, for emergency calls. Can you return the handset to HTC for a warranty repair?
[Desire HD General] bobuk:
I still get a message on the lock screen saying Emergency Calls only - although admittedly I haven't tried calling the emergency services to check if it gets through.

Not being the original in-store purchaser I don't even know the age of the phone but I'm guessing probably over the 12 month warranty period, sod's law - I'll give them a ring and see what they say :)
[Desire HD General] Andy:
My DHD was from the first batch and is still covered by warranty. How did you check to see if the IMEI was blocked?
[Desire HD General] yazayad:
I had a similar problem to this one. My mobile data connection gave out after my DHD's temp reached about 38 degrees while playing with it in the sun. A little while later I lost coverage completely, same as you. I tried everything, flashing ruus and re-rooting, re-s-offing, everything. Ten different ROMs, radios, kernels etc.

Eventually I gave up, figuring I had confirmed it was a hardware issue, and popped my sim in my old nokia so I had a usable phone and to get on with my life after wasting so many hours. I left the DHD with the battery removed, and ended up not coming home for a couple of days.

When I got home and decided to start playing around with the DHD again to see if I could get it working properly, I noticed the issues were gone.. I've tried to reproduce this problem out of curiosity, leaving the led light on high for a while, making the phone hot. Nothing. Since then I've flashed everything imaginable, and I've switched back and forth between two radios all week. No problems.

Strange, I'm guessing I have some form of hardware damage, but everything is running smoothly now at 1,5 GHz - no unstability of any kind.
[Desire HD General] m4her1:
I have done that actually! I took the battery off, and put the phone back in the box just to get on with my life. I left it sitting for a day and a half I guess, and I came back BUT unfortunately, unlike you, the problem is still there. The phone tries to look for signal, but it can't connect to the network. It does find the network and identifies it by name, but does NOT connect to it.
[Desire HD General] Naffets:
Sounds like a hardware fault Bob - Give it back to Rob!

or try and get HTC to fix if still in warranty?
[Desire HD General] m4her1:
Thanks! I thought so, too!

Hey did you solve problem?

I have had that emergency calls for 2 day,s i am waiting only. Please help.
[Desire HD General] ratking:
If you find that your GPRS data connection connects but you have no GSM signal do the following

*#*#4636#*#* choose radio off and then radio on, be sure to be in a location with a STRONG GSM Signal and your phone should connect. I have had the same issue with my Desire HD and have been surviving with this workaround as nobody else seemed to know
[Desire HD General] Cursed Chico:
Stiill same :S Selected networkd unavailable error
[Desire HD General] LowGasPrices:
Try changing sim, or it sounds like blacklisted IMEI.
[Desire HD General] Cursed Chico:
But my sim works on other phones and other sim cards work on my Huawei?
[Desire HD General] Sub1ime14:
I was reading through this hoping desperately that somebody had found a solution. I had switched to Cyanogenmod recently but had GPS issues, so I tried flashing a new radio and RIL. Now I can't make any calls/texts, etc. as described here.

Tried several other radios/RILs, tried nandroid restore, tried flashing whole new ROM (LeeDroid). Still the same issue. Tried the *# codes listed here, no luck.

Please let me know if anybody has solved this one. I

really

don't need a paperweight right now...
[Desire HD General] Cursed Chico:
I solved mine but mine wwas different. I changed my sim to 64 kb, bought a new one. So now there is no problem.. Mine was old before.
[Desire HD General] Sub1ime14:
Well, after a long night, I found a solution... The simplest of solutions yet it actually was the right one. I read on another forum to take the battery out, leave it for 20 minutes, then put it back in, boot it up, and if it still can't get connected, go into settings - wireless - mobile networks, and choose at&t. This time it accepted and began working find again. Very frustrating after hours of flashing radio after radio and even flashing a new ROM, but I'm glad it worked!
[Desire HD General] thuanvatlieu:
thanks ^^,. this helped me to solve issue. awesome solution!
[Desire HD General] Sub1ime14:
Glad to hear it. Just as an FYI, my issue reappeared a few days later. Did the same battery-pull fix again. Has been no problem since then. Hoping it sticks this time.
[Desire HD General] thiagodark:
thank you so much...

and just for future reference, it worked flawless with my gsm galaxy nexus. i don't have a clue why, but someday my imei just dissapeared and typing #*06# was returning a blank box. And in "about phone > status > imei", "unknown" was shown... and off course, i couldn't connect to my carrier (or any) network...

i pulled my battery off for about five minutes and my imei came back... weird thing!
[Desire HD General] NakazatoTakeshi:
First post, just thought I'd add to the anecdotal data. I got the dreaded "Cannot connect to this network at this time. Please try again later." errors while trying to connect last night on a Nexus S on Wind Mobile, after having no issues for a year and a half.

The problem for me turned out to be the SIM card. The guy at Wind said it was getting old and they already had a newer version, so I swapped in a new one and everything is working fine again.

Before that, the SIM was still detectable by my phone even though I couldn't connect, so I wasn't too optimistic that a new SIM would work, but it did.

Not sure how relevant this is to the DHD, but hopefully it helps somebody.
[Desire HD General] hatashi:
I had the same problem.

I had my Desire HD replaced about a month ago because it broke and under my insurance I got a new one. When I received my new Desire HD I wasn't able to connect to any network, it showed up as no signal! I tried various different simcard, and no luck! Then I did a full system reset and all that stuff but it didn't work. So I rang up my insurance company, they collected the phone and they then did confirm it was a problem with the phone itself. My phone was gone for 1 week and it came back trough the post being repaired, (not replaced) they said something about replacing the mainboard (I don't know what that is) but yeah. It's either that or your IMEI is blocked (possible if you bought your phone of ebay)

Best of luck, hope you resolve the problem!

Official announcement from google:

http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=3812c1acf93b482f&hl=en

Although not all of you have Android 2.3.3 yet, we’re happy to announce Android 2.3.4. This new version introduces an exciting new feature, and also addresses some bugs.

and this SPECIAL "coming weeks" of google is more like a joke!

edit: did I mention no more working trackball?
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
Will Nexus one get the video chat feature like the Nexus S?
[Nexus One General] bozzykid:
Not officially. It is only for android phones with 2.3.4 with front facing cameras.
[Nexus One General] mindfrost82:
I'm willing to see how 2.3.4 is in hopes that they actually fixed more than those listed, but I've been half tempted to go back to Froyo because of these issues. Plus since it looks like I could still use the new GTalk app, its even more tempting. Froyo seemed to work great for me.
[Nexus One General] bozzykid:
That post was on Google's Help Forum. It is probably only addressing a few of the issues that were popular there. I doubt it is a full list of the changes.
[Nexus One General] mindfrost82:
I'm not so sure...its only a 6.5mb file isn't it? At least for the S
[Nexus One General] bozzykid:
Yes, that is plenty big enough for bug fixes.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
The more bug fixes the better for our amazing & enduring Nexus One's!
[Nexus One General] knightsljx:
does anyone know where i can get a .zip of the 2.3.4 update? The only available now is for Nexus S.

I received the OTA but I rejected it cause I still had a custom rom. By the time I restored to stock, it no longer notifies me for an update even with the *#*# check in
[Nexus One General] geemaan:
If you were on a custom rom you've probably received the ota notification for a previous version...
[Nexus One General] hycian:
"Android 2.3.4 OTA rolling out over the next few weeks! Has bug fixes for Nexus One, video chat for Nexus S. But a surprise is still to come!"

Still no update being rolled out for Nexus One. Thanks Google, it's the "next few weeks" nonsense all over again.
[Nexus One General] geemaan:
well, the "next few weeks" you're referring to are from the statement in which they announced when the gingerbread _will be_ available. now they said the 2.3.4 ota is available and is being rolled out (progressively) during the next few weeks. So, if you're at the end of their roll out queue...
[Nexus One General] behelit:
sif ffc is the only way to video chat..

they better bring it to all devices, although fring/qik are pretty nice but native gtalk is always better.
[Nexus One General] j00m:
black screen when SMS, no popup char... are fixed. what i need!!!!!

Thanks Google.
