Hey Misledz! Thanks for your reply!

About the SD Card, I'm using a Kingston Class 4, 8GB one. But the issue is presenting with "Internal SD Card". While i'm doing this with the phone, just out of precaution, i take it out and i haven't placed it inside my phone yet.

And the whole "Trollfairy" thing, it's starting to look like a viable explanation to it, LOL!!

Man this guy should seriously thing of taking writing as a profession.:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
I know right?! Maybe writing is a profession of his. Despite the long nature I was strangely indulged to read it :P

@Collie, Well the problem happens at times when you don't factory reset. *2767*3855# that should get you in to a manual factory reset. The phone's internal memory sometime's has issues with that, You may however need to flash the latona file to repartition the drive. After the repartition, the flashing of the firmware and lastly, le factory reset. That should serve as a stable ground base :)

Kingston :P Nice.

Updates?

KIES really is a POS. Every time i flash a new fw and my phone does the initial boot while its connected to the pc I see the horrid screen on my phone reminding me that KIES is installed on my pc. FUUUUUUUUU
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] CollieDawg:
Thanks!! I'm actually just a Wintel / Citrix / VMWare administrator. I've written a few fanfics here and there back when i was a filly, but not anymore!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] CollieDawg:
About that, maybe I'm doing the reset in an incorrect way. I've been using Vol +, OK, Power to enter the second recovery mode and factory reset the phone. I don't know if this is the same as using the code.

Update on what I did:

I installed the last version of Gingerbread once more, flashed with Odin. This time i did not install any app or register in google, i just left it as it was. This was done saturday afternoon. At night, i took it with me, and i left it in my bag while I was at the club. When i got back to it, around 6 AM, it hadn't rebooted. So i went home, went to sleep, woke up at midday for lunch and....FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
LOL the irony of the best order. Well did you try without the sdcard? That's your last option from your side, the next possible is getting the unit changed if you are under warranty, just don't mention odin, rather always blame kies LOL. If the end of the world happened, kies. World War 3,kies. There was a user who had the same issue reported like 5months ago, he had internal ROM problem where the phone failed to save the information it was given causing it to say the internal was corrupt? He ended up getting a new unit and found out later the unit he had previously was a faulty handset

SD has been out since day 1, since I started having this issue, first thing i thought is "this idiot is saving its own files to the SD instead of its own memory, and when it reboots for some reason it can't find the files and goes nuts".

So yes, i'm thinking about just taking it to the store and getting a new one...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] CollieDawg:
THAT'S IT! I'm taking it to the store tomorrow...

Now it's just rebooting itself...Samsung logo going on and on....

Thanks everyone for the help!!!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
Get it replaced asap so you can join the "famiry" :D!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] CollieDawg:
If I don't get it changed tomorrow, my next post will be a link to youtube, where you'll find a video of me lighting it up on fire, then dancing around it as it burns, and finally running it over with my car...total destruction, should be covered by my insurance...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] android_and_me:
ROFL, That was literally the funniest thing I heard all month

wish you good luck
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
LOL i would have done the same, only a little different, burn it, dance and wait for the ashes to settle, drink up the ashes or feed it to my dog, then walk upto the nearest samsung retailer and take a dump on the entrance entitled 'Now your phone is ****', I'm pretty sure the insurance covers the carpet too.

Well, i should be working on the video...still didn't get it changed...they looked at it, and IN FRONT OF ME, performed a firmware upgrade....imagine how i was biting my tongue not to lash out saying "I already did that, you moron!", but couldn't!

Basically, I know it's not gonna work, i'm back with it for now, but i know it's gonna fail tomorrow, so I'm going to have to take it back again to the store....

where are u my friend i am still waiting for the solution

the Pseudo factory reset happenes only at night when the phone is not in use

I tried last night without the sd the problem still same , this concludes that this problem is nothing to do with the sd

I suspect ext4 file type , I will flash my phone one more time without converting file system to ext4

please provide the solution if any as soon as possible
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:

internal memory replaced...

Hello... It happends that I live in south america... so Samsung Support is not an option to me. I have a question... the solution of replacing the internal memory is for the reboot problem??? And is it not related with the ROM?

:eek: I hope that another there is another solution...

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
I wouldn't quote but I enjoyed the read XD! Fireworks! Lots of it! Thing is, you should try reflashing the firmware on the new unit or so they claim it is :O Either samsung has sold fault units or the company just fails to get it replaced and just looked at the hardware scenario. It's kinda depressing knowing you get a somewhat medicore price ranged phone only to have the phone act as an expensive paperweight. Go with hulk next time sir.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] CollieDawg:
Totally agree with you...i'm really surprised and I did not expect something like this from Samsung.

I'm looking at a lot of cases of people with the same inconvenient, we're probably facing a massive failure of these devices.

Thing is, for Samsung it's considered an old phone already, and I'm not confident they will be placing a lot of effort in correcting this...but well, let's keep our hopes up.

My phone returned from SAMSUNG.

With ANDROID 2.2.1 KB3

And now Kies write`s That device cannot be upgrade by KIES.

Air update writes there are no new upgrades...

Let`s see what will be in future. And I will dump my rom. It`s seam`s like phone lock security.

Seems you do not know the power of odin -.-
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Bekbuk:
I know the power of the odin and many times flashed the phone... But on the gingerbread there are pseudo factory reset every 3 days... I will wait a week.. and than if there will be no problem. I will save this rom with ClockWorks... And than will try to flash with KPQ version.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spm123123:
hi

on xxkp3 i hadnt faced any issues - faced issues after moving to dxkp9 and rooting/deodexing. After that i tried xxkph, xxkpq, moved back to xxkp3, moved back to xxkb3 (froyo) and finally since nothing seemed to solve the random restarts (i also ALWAYS got an "Internal SD card unexpectedly removed" error on ALL roms) i moved to ddkb2 and gave the phone to samsung service centre yesterday.

not sure what they'll do....the ridiculous chap gave me some spiel about viruses on android. that totally dashed any hopes i had that the phone would be fixed.

what are my options? thinking of exchanging it for a motorola fire (i need a working phone, and unfortunately ive gotten accustomed to android so need google services like contacts etc). Not sure about samsung's build quality in case this is a hardware issue.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Bekbuk:
Sunday on evening the problem with KB3 returns... All programs crashed. And at night too... On Monday morning i go too samsung support... And today they returned the phone too me... With Only factory reset!!!! They really are pissing me off!! In support result they wrote. That the software I install breaking the OS. What software? On all roms and all that flashes... Some of them don`t even have any software installed...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Bekbuk:
And it`s hangs again.. And i will go to support again!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

How i hate THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sorry for flood.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Bekbuk:
Today I was at support. And they say that I go to the shop where I got this phone... And exchange it for the new... And I do that... Now I waiting for expert examination of the phone. Story will continues after 10 days.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Bekbuk:
Nice congratulations!!! You have good service center... In my country they twice returns phone with only ROM flash.. Now They send my phone to manufacturer.

And I now waiting... And waiting... How I miss my Android :(

Hi all.

I'm having a similar issue on my phone. I think it started with the rom before KPQ (can't remember the name). Flashed like always, with Odin, twice, then factory reset, all seemed fine. I did the same with KPQ. But the phone reboots randomly (there's no pattern, sometimes it takes many days before it happens), gets stuck at the Samsung text and stays like that till I remove the battery and power on the phone. After that, the settings are back to the default, and the start wizard shows up. Also, no apps in market till I uninstall the update, they're back in My apps with the old version.

I don't know what's happening, I tried to find some pattern for these resets, but no luck. At one point I remember that the phone reset twice after 2 updates of some su binary thing (busybox?), but it happened again last night and it's been about 2 weeks since I updated that thing. I don't know what to do... :(
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] dr-PHP:
do not waste your time go to sumsung support they will either replace the mainboard or the phone

This was no luck.. This was war. I wrote more than 10 petitions... 4 weaks spending every 3 days in support. They just give up. And done what i said to do in first. But because they don`t have a new motherboard on theyr hands... They changed to the new one....
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mzone1510:
Well well this happened to me for the 1st time too! I never had this problem before on stock roms, I installed cranium 5.1 and left it to charge overnight and boom,morning it entered into a SOD and was hot! Did a battery pull and after restarting voila! Pseudo reset! Even APN was gone! I'm reverting back to stock now, ended up late to work cause the alarm didn't ring!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] thedirtchamber:
I tried to go back to KPE. I don't get the reset thing anymore, but I do get Kernel Panic Upload mode at random times. Then I tried the latest rom, DDKP, but, again, reset issue. I don't know what to do anymore... :(
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mzone1510:
Hey guys is it weird that I never had this problem before but that it suddenly cropped up? Just a couple days back when I installed cranium rom? It happened again today morning on stock kpq! Only thing I did was the universal cf-root by amit. Oh but I think I might have found one suspect (not sure though) I had taken a backup of google maps 6 because I didn't want to download it every time I change roms, so i just restored it from the backup, and left it that way to charge whole night...

When morning came guess what?! the phone was dead and was hot! Rebooted and same ol psuedo reset baby! Opned maps after booting to see that it was force closing, so I uninstalled updates to it and it worked fine... Well now lets see how it goes. During the day its perfectly fine though! Its only when its kept alone for long that it happens...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mhwong:
Happens on DXKB2 stock rom as well

I've never tried any custom ROM yet still experienced this. Started with XXKPH or XXKPN. And most of the in between ones.

Flashed with DXKB2 - pseudo resets

DXKF1 - pseudo resets

DXKP9 - same thing

DXKB2 - flashed twice this time - and guess what - pseudo resets

Kind of happens very fast, maybe 1-2 hours after putting on charger. And sometimes randomly in pocket when it gets really hot.

With DXKB2 i've restored it to stock ROM but now Samsung Kies says the firmware is not upgradable via Kies. And it still pseudo resets. Getting a very bad experience on my first Samsung. Can I still send it in for warranty? What is the best way to guarantee a motherboard fix or replacement? I'm sure if they flash it with any firmware the problem will persists.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] thedirtchamber:
This is not a hardware issue, it's software related. And as mzone said, the phone resets (at least in my experience) when charged over night, in 99% of the time. I suspect that universal cf-root, because that's the most common thing I installed on all roms that have this issue. The only rom that didn't had it was KPE, instead it has the kernel panic upload mode problem...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mhwong:
Yes, most of the time it is at night. But the strange thing is i never even used a non-stock rom, or a rooted rom, so have no idea how it could be a software issue. Any recommendation of which version of rom that could solve this problem? Thanks

I just flashed an i9003 yesterday to gingerbread with Kies form Froyo and it was all fine, but today it kind of reboot itself randomly and was in a reboot loop. After pulling the battery, it seemed to have pseudo reset. All the apps that I had installed were all there but the homescreen etc reset. How to I roll back to Froyo? Is this the best way to resolve this?

So I flash with Odin just to roll back to Froyo right? What was the last stable version for this phone that I can safely flash to to not have this restart problem? And is there no solution so far to this problem on the phone? Should I claim warranty?

Pseudo random reset + read only user partitions?

Now my i9003 behaves even weirder. Trying yet another round of firmware flash to try to fix it:

1. Repartition with latona.pit

2. DXKF1 package (Modem, PDA, CSC)

3. Clear cache, factory reset, format internal SD

4. Reboot

Surprisingly the reflashing and resetting didn't remove the apps I have installed! Viber, Whatsapp, Skype etc are all there and so are my files in the internal SD

Try again with

*2767*3855#

Yet, my data is still there. Looks like my phone internal memory have become somewhat read-only?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Lok3sh:
Installed XWKPG and still the reset problem. Is this hardware related??

I'm going to attempt an install of DXKP9 since you say you have no problems with it. Lets see if that solves it. If not, then back to Froyo I guess...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Lok3sh:
So I flashed to DXKP9 today, and still the same problem. Just reverted to Froyo. Lets see how it goes now.

Does anyone know if this is a hardware issue? If so I can get my phone exchanged since its still under warranty. I want Gingerbread and I don't want to use Froyo.
