[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dipxda:
I just switched to JVT on my Galaxy S. I use the phone as alarm clock and thus put it next to my bed set in flight mode and to silent mode during night. In addition, I charge the phone during night.

The problem is, when the battery is fully charged it vibrates (which wakes me up). Is there a way to avoid this vibration? I know that the phone does not vibrate when it is not set to silent mode, but I want to keep it in silent mode to avoid that other sounds may wake me up during night.

My phone is rooted so any solution which needs a rooted phone would be ok. I previously used a custom rom which did not vibrate when fully charged, so it must in principle be possible to change this behavior (but how?).

Go to settings - sound - vibration - Only when not in silent mode

It won't vibrate nor make a sound whilst your asleep

Trying to get an answer to this previously posted question!

Using semaphore 1.8.* on stock JVT with ext4 file systems with no journalling on /system & /cache. Occasionally, after trying weird and wonderful things, I need to restore the phone. This didn't used to be a problem, I would use CWM to restore the last nandroid backup, boot, clear caches and all was great!

Recently, after a successful restore, the phone would just hang at the boot screen.

This means I have to re-install JVT, then semaphore 1.8.* then the restore works.

I convert back to ext4 and all is great.

Any idea why a restore from CWM might not be working ?

Urgently need help

Hi, I have recently started experiencing a problem with my galaxy s where if I call someone, or they call me, I can hear the other person but they cannot hear me.Recording my voice using the voice recorder works fine, no problems.

I have tried stock firmwares, custom firmwares (darky 10.2.2 EE). The phone works good except for this problem - no crashes, bootloops etc.

I have tried going into the service menu and changing the receive and transmit volumes, but it does not help.

There was one time (very early in the morning, about 3am - I was working on this problem thru the night) where I got it to work, but I have not been able to replicate what I did.

Please can you help me?

Thank you in advance,

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dipxda:
Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately this does not help. It seems that the vibration when battery is fully charged ignores the above setting and may be hardcoded. I don't think this behavior can be changed by a setting but must be changed by changing the code. Do you have any advice for that too?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hell_storm2004:
I think was a bit quick, my 3 button combo is working. But a few questions:

1. I downloaded the CF-Root and rooted my phone. I have repartitioned my phone,

4096MB and 256MB swap. Is that OK?

2. All my previous application are still on the phone and give non-stop force close messages. Do i have to re-install them from the market?

3. Most importantly Titanium Backup Pro gives FC messages when i try to open it. So i am not able to restore anything! :(

Any help would be good!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f3n0m3no:
1. i have never repartitioned my phone so i dont know. if its booting it is ok.

2. you have to unnistall all of them,factory reset better

3. reinstall titanium backup and try to restore.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryoju:
hye

i have one big problem : i tried to reflash my phone above amestris 5.2 but i forgot to disable lagfix.. now i'm getting force close and cannot make a wipe data nor copy file on sd card.. so it's really frustrating.. i tried many times to flash with odin the jvt stock but the situation is worst in this way..

i would be very grateful for some help, so please if you have an idea i will apreciate..

here is a part of the report after trying to install jvt stock :

E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount sdcard your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.

and it says also "can't wipe data" and

"failed to mount data, invalid argument"

i already did a stock flash with repartition.. and after that it does not reboot, so i flashed cf root kernel then it reboots but the force closes made impossible any kind of use...

now it only says : "failed to mount data, invalid argument" and then the screen "galaxy s gt-i9000 comes and goes repeatedly...

so i returned to amestris 5.2 which is also full of force closes but at least usable.. so i tried to wipe all data through privacy, then it reboots and says :

"E:format _volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2"------- for formatting /data

"E:format _volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl10"------- for formatting /dbdata

"E:format _volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl11"------- for formatting /cache

and ""failed to mount data, invalid argument"

"Data wipe failed" ------ for deleting Meta Data

moreover, it seems that my internal sd card is not available because i cannot download nor put anything in it.... very sad

i already disabled the lagfix with speedmod, but no improvement... and the big problem is that i cannot paste any file like roms on my internal sd... i really have some regret to have flashed...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f3n0m3no:
Before the problem did you had speedmod kernel? you must disable lagfix with the same kernel you have applied.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryoju:
thanks but i had semaphore kernel with amestris 5.2, and with semaphore i can't disable lagfix in recovery, keeping in mind that the ext4 apk is not usable, even superuser, because of force closes.. so it is af if i was in prison :-(

nevertherless, i disabled the lagfix after installing speedmod kernel, but it did not improve the plan...

Police cant block phones,only telephony providers. And it is the same procedure.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Talon26:
Sorry confused here...

So when the police block a phone, you can just reflash it?

And if you get it back, you just need to type in your credentials again, and not tell the police?

I'm positive that's not true, that's why you have the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) right?

Hi so i want to downgrade my from from a gingerbread to a froyo ROM i currently have Darky 10.2 RE Rom.

WHy do i want to do this?

My bootloader is from Froyo so my start up screens is all messed up but in order to update my bootloader i need to be able to update my SBL.bin file and in order to update sbl.bin i need to be able to get into recovery mode but in oder to get into recovery mode i need to be able to fix the bootloader issue...

ok why do i need to fix my sbl.bin? everytime i try to update anything it gets stuck in sbl.bin and well that sucks cause i can update roms but i cant do anything else.

This is the guide to update de SBL.BIN

OK so I just tried the process and it does work.

For people with the Sbl issue and can't speak spanish:

Download the file from http://www.mediafire.com/?5ek9oo8e8qbxqv8 and uncompress it.

Your phone will need to be rooted and to be able to run unsigned update.zip

1.- Set the phone in USB debugging mode

2.- Connect the phone to the computer (Make sure none of the SD cards are mounted and that Kies is completly closed)

3.- Execute the file "Aplicar Fix" and a new window will appear. The phone will request for root access for the application. Allow the root access.

4.- The hex editor (included in the zip) will open.

5.- Search "OFNI" in the hex editor.

If the line says OFNI:.,!@ then your phone is compatible with this fix.

If it says: OFNI:..x0 it won't work.

6.- Close the hex editor and if the fix is compatible (as we checked in the last step) press "s". Allow root access and let the software do its thing.

7.- The phone will reboot in recovery mode, apply update.zip

That's it. After the update.zip file is applied, the phone will have the sbl file overwritten and your phone will be compatible with the 3 button combo.

This is necessary for some phones having difficulties installing gingerbread even when the 3 button combo already works.

After running this fix you can continue to do whatever process you prefer to install gingerbread on your phone (there are several guides here).

I used the rom located in: http://hotfile.com/dl/114645023/5ea0...EEJV3.rar.html

password: samfirmware.com

And was able to keep my 850mhz band working (hdspa and 3G).

Thanks to perusmart for the 3 button combo tutorial, neovan from mexroid.com for the link to download the firmware and someonemx for bringing all thgis to our attention.

Good luck!

but what i want to do is get a froyo rom, downgrade my current ROM so i can get into recovery. update my sbl.bin and then upgrade my ROM to gingerbread again.

Thanks in advance.

How to set custom MTD partitions sizes in Samsung Galaxy S?

Hi, my question is how to set custom MTD partitions sizes in Samsung Galaxy S?

I saw in this forum and other forums how to do it for other devices (each one in a different way, with different files to download) but not for Samsung Galaxy S.

the purppose is increasing /data/data size in MIUI or CM ROMs since stock size is only 170 MB (and FCs starts when 90% is reached: 153 MB).

Thanks and regards.

Edit: I'm sorry, I was wrong: What I should do is assigning more space to /data/data and not to /data. I found the following links "explaining" that but I don't understand how to do that:

So, if I flash Semaphore 1.8 over darkcore 4.1 will I face any difficulties? Or shall I reflash the whole system (kernel, ROM, theme, etc.)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Herman76:
Root is just a way to get administrator privileges on your phone(to get access to system apps). rooting is not a way to boost your phone, but merely the first step in letting you boost it. If you are running stock ROM a good way to boost it is to install 'lag fix' a or upgrading to newer Android version.

And a little tip. Don't start flashing ROM's without knowing what you are doing, so read up on everything about the ROM if you're choice.
