[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Merio90:
You are screwed.

Sorry to tell you this but i had the exact same problem and found no solution whatsoever to fix the phone. I finally gave up and bought a Galaxy Nexus. You can try flashing Eugene's Unbrickable Froyo Rom which is flashable through odin as a .tar package along with the pit file. You might be able to fix it but i highly doubt it. I flashed Eugene's rom and got the same results as you described. By any chance did you click "Reset Phone" when the "Encryption Unsuccessful" showed up? If so well yeah your phone is pretty much paperweight as of now...until someone finds a solution. Like you i am also able to access download mode. So i guess there may be a way to fix your phone. Not saying it's impossible...hopefully someone finds a solution soon.

Here is the link to Euguene's rom: http://eb-productions.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=samsungsgs&action=display&thread=8

Good luck.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
OP, what ROM were you running (specifically. Not just ICS 4.0.3-what is the name of the ROM)? Also what kernel?

Since you are not the only one this happened to, I would like to know the above and see if it correlates to the others that this happened to in the Vibrant section. I'll post the same in their threads too.

Check here out for a possible solution/workaround.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfrisbee:
Replacement Vibrant Coming

Thanks for your recommendations/help guys.

I decided to go to T-Mobile and complain and they are sending me a replacement phone. Apparently it's still under warranty, so it won't cost me anything, and if my data is lost, then so be it...at least all my contacts will still be in tact through my Google account.

Merio - I did NOT hit the Reset Button when I saw the Encryption Unsuccessful screen. Before doing anything I did a little research and I found a forum here on xda that said to not hit that button, and tried to explain a way to fix it using the Heimdall One-Click. Basically it sounded like I'd be flashing back to a Gingerbread ROM. So, instead I just went ahead and tried to flash back to stock Eclair. The results of that were obviously not good.

Woodrube - I was running the Passion 13 ROM (ICS 4.0.3). Was really enjoying it until I got the Encryption "Screen of Death"

I don't know what Kernel it was, actually, I don't really know what a Kernel is...

Thanks again guys. Hopefully I'll be up and running on my replacement phone soon!

Is it possible to activate the phone in this link on the VZW network? Says its unlocked... thanks

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChicoKiri:
No. GSM phones can't be activated on Verizon.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hampsterblade:
While there may be another issue underlying, one of the more prominant reboot causes on the phone is wifi.

I believe I may have found the cause of the problem, and with that a temporary fix.

The problem had me at a loss because some people had it and others didn't, so I concluded it to be caused by either wifi channel or security.

Doing some scanning I found my own wifi to be running on channel 3. Opening the router interface I found the channel setting, like most routers, was set to auto. I changed this setting to 6 and no more reboots.

The fix

If you are running your own wireless router, open the interface and use a standard channel (1,6,11, 6 is recommended if you use wireless N with 40mhz channel width). I will not help you set up your router as there are plenty of tutorials out there.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
Unfortunately for me this is not the case. I've had my router set to channel 11 for some time. It does not change. Also, I've had the problem occur when wifi on the phone was not enabled.

After reading a thread in the Dev section on this kernel about it possibly being signal-strength related, I figured I would do some testing with different modems. I first went to the KD1 modem and it seemed fine for almost a day, then a reboot. Followed by a reboot soon thereafter. I switched to KG4 and the problem got worse. I do believe, however, that when it occurred my signal strength to T-Mobile (not via wifi) was weak/nonexistent.

I'm still on the KG4 modem despite the amount of issues I had with it last (one time it rebooted twice within the matter of a minute).

I think Bryan may be onto something provided in a log regarding the WM8994 module/code.

I'm glad you're still trying to figure out the issue as my time is limited these days. I hope we can narrow this issue down for the folks having the problem.

Thanks for your efforts and time!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hampsterblade:
Yes. As I said it appears there are 2 issues. My phone had started to reboot almost every 5 minutes when connected to wifi. There does also seem to be another issue causing reboots, but for some this may help.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
I misread the first sentence. Sorry about that. Weird that wifi is causing that issue. I'm tempted to set my router to auto & see what happens. I set a channel for it long ago because I have a repeater to get the signal to the other side of the house and they would hang if both were set to auto.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hampsterblade:
In my case it was locking up and rebooting almost every time the phone locked and was destroying battery life
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
I don't get great battery life as it is. I did notice yesterday or the day before, though, that when it reboots itself, the battery usage shows a sharp drop. I also noticed it's not a "full" reboot, but rather seems like a quick boot.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sunsurfer42:
I agree with the half reboots and it also seems to me that they happen when the signal is low. I get a couple a day and usually while using data or wifi while indoors or while coverage is low. I don't know if these details help track it down or not but I wanted to leave my experiences.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hampsterblade:
I mag have found a fix. Testing it now. Will update tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Kyndig66:
Just an FYI. I set my router to n only channel 6 a few days ago. No reboots til this morning. Normally it's "hmmm there it goes again." This morning however I thought I had broken my ankle and was waiting for a call back on what to do. BAM, my blue tooth disconnected, I looked at the phone and saw the beats audio startup. Really bad timing for a reboot. Wifi wasn't on. Glad I didn't miss the call back. That would have really sucked.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hampsterblade:
Ive pretty.much given up on finding it. Im waiting for my sdcard to come in the mail to test that. If that doesnt fix it ill be redeeming my phone warranty this weekend.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
Don't give up just yet.

I'm using my Hebrew Valhalla ROM and using Bryan's kernel I had no reboots for more than a month. It's basically Valhalla Final with Adrenaline Shot 14.1 with system mount on etc init.d scripts. I'm also on sidekick kd1 modem. You can try this ROM, if you don't change locality to Hebrew it's as English as any other ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Kyndig66:
You may have something there. I really don't understand how all the various work together, but seemingly there's something between the kernel and the modem. Since the reboots can be random though, it's hard for me to even guess. I flashed SCOM a little bit ago which uses the KD1 Modem with KJ6-v0.1.1-rc2. So we'll see.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ericmpanda:
Idk. It seams heat related. Also Bryan said that he either tracked it to userspace errors or he thinks its caused by userspace errors.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
for those of you having the random reboot, did you do the gremlin removal steps + the factory wipe without the sd card in the phone? i would highly recommend this. after you have successfully done the gremlin remover, remove and reformat the sd card on the computer. while this is formatting, go back into cwm and wipe data/cache/dalvik without the sd card in the phone. once this is done, let the phone sit for 15 min or and and shut down. put the sd card in and reboot. if you still have random reboots, try the kh2 kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] htaak:
I was going through the same reboot issues with kernels newer than 2D for a while. Then a few weeks ago I flashed FB's version and everthing ran great for a week. I was running VB with no additional tweaks of any kind. The week of no random reboots got me feeling good enough to start adding some of the typical changes I make to my phone... the first being changing some SD apps over to System apps ( Netflix, Skype, TB, Plume, Ninesky, ES File Ex, Camera Zoom FX & a few others)...BAM! Random reboots 4 to 5 times a day. Converted apps back after 3 days but the reboots persisted. Reflashed VB from scratch, keeping kernel that is packed in Raver's VB ROM, left apps alone and so far no reboots in 4 days. The only logs I found were similar to those posted on another thread where Bryan then said he didn't need anymore, he just needed time to de-bug.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gs_0523:
Has anyone tried using the kj2 modem? kd1from SCOM was giving me random reboots left and right and after flashing kj2 last night my phone has been up for a little over 17 hrs without any issues. I know its not alot of time but its better than random reboots every hour or so. Signal strength also went up a bit.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Kyndig66:
I usually do the whole gremlin thing before every flash regardless. Actually formatting my sd on the puter as we speak. Then I'll do gremlin again, then reformat, etc. The things you mentioned at the end though I've never seen before, so I'll add those into the mix. With the SCOM flash this morning, the phone rebooted within 3 hours. I'm glad to see Bryan's back and that he's on top of it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
I had this problem and added the system mount on init.d scripts and the modem and don't have it. Never used the gremlin remover. So if the gremlin remover won't work for you as well, try what I say.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] 95Z28:
I'm on icbinb, which I've been on for well over a month and have only had one reboot (after leaving my phone on for more than 5 straight days). Only thing I've changed is tried the sidekick modems, but they didn't increase my service, so I flashed back to kj6.

Oh, slightly uv'd and oc'd at 1.2
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
I'm on scom v2 and no reboots so far so it might be an app causing this. Hmm...

if you ain't first you're last :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
Possibly. I posted some info in the kernel's Dev section about steps I took. I didn't install any apps but I did get a reboot at 24 hours.

What I *DID* change (and I forgot about it) was I set up Visual Voice Mail prior to the reboot. It may not have anything to do with it but it was a change I failed to mention.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
I keep falling back to this but not sure what apps everybody having issues would be using. BUT stephen mentions VVM,

that

could be a start. Maybe it is a t-mobile app causing this.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hampsterblade:
Just got my new 16GB class 10 SD card today. So far it seems more stable. Will let you know and I will be testing a few more theories.

I am suapecting bad SD card, swap size or SD-ext size.

Edit: Nevermind, just did it again. Will be using waranty. I am out of ideas here. I think my phone may have another issue as well. Hopefully the new phone will fix it. Although i will say the phone unlocks faster with the class 10 card than the class 2.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Somairotevoli:
have you tried another kernel like kj1?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
for those people having random random reboots add back in the wi fi calling apk to the firmware you are using. It should actually stop the random retard moments from happening.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Kyndig66:
Just put it back. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:
For what it is worth Raver I have NEVER had a reboot using Bryan's Kernel. I've been using it since it was released.

I HAVE TO use the wifi calling app at my apt because my reception is poor so I have it installed.

This isn't a confirmation of your post because I haven't had reboots. Just my experience.

Thank You for all Your Hard Works!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
I use the wifi calling all of the time & still have the random reboots. I'm on a stock ROM currently.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
My old phone just got a update to (hold your breath) 2.2.2 :P. The reason I mention this is people are getting random reboots and the only thing that has changed is the radio. They cant change back to the old version because of how Virgin give out updates.

However they are going to do some testing by using just the stock update and see if they get reboots. Then move to their version of CM7. The devs are saying the samething as some have here and dont think the radio can cause reboots.

Also erikmm are you back home? Did you have reboot issues again on the way home?

So I realize this is an old topic. I bumped the previous post, its not showing so...here we go.

This is the cherry on top for the ns4g, the one true feature we lack is HDMI out. I know its a developer phone, I'm 100% cool with that, we have things others don't and vice versa. But, I've read a lot on the subject, it seems possible. Back when the ns4g hit best buy, they had a ns4g with HDMI out to a 52" life like ns4g.

I've purchased a Samsung mhl adapter and gave it a shot. No picture or sound as I assumed, though the phone registered the mhl and immediately went to dock mode. So its trying... what's missing? Must be software. If so, how do we wake her up?

I have much love for all the devs around here, i mean no disrespect with offering funds to anyone who takes on this project. I happily donate to devs when using their work, its just that this subject was so popular and then it disappeared completely. I wonder if I missed something.

Thanks for looking and please don't hate, if this is possible. It would be worth it..

[Nexus S General] swamp goblin:
It may be possible, we would have to research what hardware controls the mhl, and see if our nexus has it.. then we would have to find out what software controls it, and port it.

Doesn't seem to hard, as long as our nexus has the correct hardware. I have no clue about hml, never saw it until now. If any dev was willing to take a crack at finding out how to get it on nexus s, i'd be willing to help.

I want the popup window for quick-reply to come up at first and be able to use it. But if the phone is locked, the popup comes up, but there is not user interaction; is there a way that the popup could just close by itself and only appear in notifications window? What happens now is that when the phone is unlocked, the messages are in the open windows, it would be better if it was in notifications only. Like the way BiteSMS does it for the iphone notification, that the window has the option to be closed by itself and the message comes in notifications only.

Message details also verified that it was a multimedia message.
