[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a2avin:
Off late i am facing serious issues with my samsung galaxy s.

Model Details:

Number: GT-I9000

Firmware Version 2.3.3

Baseband Version: I9000DDJV5

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-I9000DDJV9-CL312456

root@SE-S605 #2

Issue

1. The Mobile Turns -off Abruptly

2. The battery status fluctates a lot. At times it warns me for low battery but when i Plug the charger it shows a higher level. If the cable shakes a bit, it say fully charged. When I unplug it shows some other level of the battery

3. Mobile Data (3G/2G) gets disconnected

Things done so far:

1. Reset Factory Data

2. Reloaded the OS from the Samsung Customer Care.

Nothing has been helpful.

Can someone from XDA throw some light!

Thanks in advance

Im sorry to tell you mate but this happened to my missas un-rooted i-9000 so the rom is not the problem. We took hers into Samsung customer care and they replaced the mother bored....

Same issue - would rooting solve?

Hi,

I have *exactly* the same battery level/charging/turning off problem with the I9000. I am sure it has not been exposed to water, or any extreme weather condition.

I suspect "rooting" might be a solution. While I am absolutely new to rooting (and xda), and I plan to do the requisite trawling of the forum to learn how to root - my only question is this: do you reckon it would solve this issue? Is something more drastic like a hardware replacement required?

Highly appreciate any help - thanks!

Tried a new battery?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faria:
Had the same problem, when battery drained to 40% it would shut-down, replaced the battery and problem solved.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ragsrocks:
solved

Just for future viewers of this post (I am sure there are tons of SGS users experiencing battery issues) - I solved this by going for a custom ROM. Currently running Slim Bean 2.3 (with Semaphore 2.0.6 for JB) and it works like a charm :) thanks developers!

Very useful free app! I've just wiped my sdCard and I was able to remember all my installed apps with this tool. You can save a list with your installed apps in order to remember them later, and go to Play store to re-install it.

No need to have any other recover or backup paid tool, with MyApp List you are done!

I was on Gingerbread XXJVU and now I went to ICS DK 4v4. The GPS works better in DK. However it still need an help to fix. In a cloudy day in Paris, I tried different apk (GPS Fix, GPS status, GPS aids, FasterFix). FasterFix was the most effective.

guess what there is no official ics, and what you use are simply nexus s files (tuned/made by google) so that is why it works better

same on gb - using nexuss files made gps working slightly better

Ever since i got my xperia S i don't have enough data any more. I used to have Arc. And i have 1.3 GB ever month to use. And that used to be plenty. I only used half of that with the arc.

So i was wondering if anyone know what is using so much data on this phone. I turned of automatic update from google market. But i can see on my bill that the phone is still taking huge bits of data while i sleep during the night.

I flashed .73 but it was the same issue with .67
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] electrash:
No problems to me (flat) but same amount of gb made this month like with arc.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
I don't have any data issues either. Maybe you have an app that's a data hog? I came in waayyyy under my data quota (500MB limit from provider) but I don't use a whole lot besides email syncing, maps, news readers and a few games.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
No such thing for me. Also I don't know about you, but in Russia .67 and NL .73 there's a data tracker app built in. Maybe you should try it? Also, ALOT. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_D_Z-D2tzi14/S8TRIo4br3I/AAAAAAAACv4/Zh7_GcMlRKo/s1600/ALOT.png

I've only gone through one billing cycle but I burned about 3GB. That was with a fair bit of browsing, youtube uploads, instant upload of photos to Photobucket and G+. I have All You Can Eat data, but after 15GB they can throttle you, so I keep an eye.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] WasherUK:
You sure about the throttle? Mines truly unlimited.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Scratchling:
Well, its in the terms, but from somebody else on three I hear that you can go to 50GB without getting throttled. They only have 400k users here in Ireland, of a population of over 4mil so contention is pretty low compared to other networks like o2 who have a majority share in the market with loads of business iphones chugging through bandwidth.

download it and check which app is taking sucking up your data...

i am having no such data issues....

check if any app is using up data and do the needfull :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Booomber:
Yea I found a app called my data manager. So im tracking all data use now.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Booomber:
Okay so i found out what is using so much data. Is something called "streaming media" I don't know what that is. Last night when is was asleep it used 144 mb. So how do I stop this?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Scratchling:
Do you have google music installed?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Booomber:
No. I have music unlimted. But i never used it.

Nobody knows what this "media streaming" is and how I can disable it or stop it or uninstall it?

How do you even turn your data on for T Mobile. I have been trying but nothing seems to be working!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ntduyphuong:
Check the running apps and find those related to media / music / streamming :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cholek3:
According to My Data Manager FAQ:

What is Streaming Media:

Media Apps like Youtube and Slacker Radio use the OS to stream video or music on their behalf. If My Data Manager can't identify which app requested the media, the usage is tracked as Streaming Media.

Simple question - I got already tablet with Windows 8 CP and since there is so few Metro apps in Store currently I'm wondering, do you know any good apps designed for Windows tablets or touch screens? I've been googling but found only Microsoft Touch pack for Windows 7, but that's all.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dreamz0r:
What are the differences?

I'm using Android Revolution HD 3.0.0 now and in the description mike1986 claims that stock 3.0.8 kernel is the best so far but with so many people using franco's kernel it must be better or am i wrong?

Also, will flashing franco.kernel on Android Revolution cause any bugs etc? (I'm kinda new to this whole flashing kernels part)

(If there are better roms do not hesitate to recommend me one and please tell me what's better if thats the case :) )

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
I can not list the differences for you exactly just go to franco's thread. There are many advantages to flashing a custom kernel. The kernel devs work hard to make the kernel's better than stock in many ways. You'll get extra features and extended battery life for sure out of a custom kernel. Stock better? I dont think so! Flashing a kernel after a rom is the way you have to do it but, ya some settings might not work if the kernel dev had done things differently from the rom dev.

give it a shot if you dont like it you can always reflash your rom package to restore the roms kernel.

before flashing a kernel (or reflashing your rom after flashing a custom kernel) wipe your dalvik cache

so many people around here have a boner for franco but I always highly recommend GLaDOS kernel its imo the best and most advance but to each his own
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dreamz0r:
Installing it now, let's see if you're right about GLaDOS :)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] SnakeDriver:
Hi everybody, I got a HTC HD2 and it has a windows mobile 6.5

I want to switch to Android but what i found there too many info about it and i really can not decide which one is correct or not.. once it says I need to have a HTC HSPL 1.66 to have HARD SPL and MAG LDR...

Which way is the best.... I have HSPL 3.14 and what it says on the colorful screen (with power and volume button pressed 2gether) is

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-3.03.000 XE 208

would you please anybody tell me where I can get a clear shot and do all these steps without having a problem and if I have a problem how can I get my HTC HD2 to original :????

I really appreciate for any help..

God bless you all

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Wow, you need to read a LOT more carefully. You seem not to understand most of the key terms here, you have not got HSPL 3.14 you have Official stock ROM 3.14. Fortunately, that makes things much easier. See this guide in order to flash NAND Android. You will need HSPL but you can skip the step about flashing a new radio as your current stock ROM conveniently gives you this. Please ensure you read this THOROUGHLY before flashing as, although you wouldn't brick your device if you messed up, you will waste your time flashing things again.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] schwab002:
So I've had this problem on both the ICS roms I've run (calkulin's rom and aokp).

Some of the apps that I try to install from the Play Store give me the error "Couldn't Install on USB storage or SD card."

I never ran into this problem with GB roms, although I'm not positive that the ICS roms are the cause.

Anyways , installing the app storage analyzer, which is 1.49mb, gives me this error despite having 1.58gb available on internal storage, another 6.68gb available on the internal sd card, as well as another ~10gb on the external.

Is this an error I can fix or do I actually need to free up more space than 1.58gb?

If I do need to free up space, do I have to delete apps and data or can I move stuff to the SD card? edit: i don't think this is the problem since I clearly have enough space, and just freed up a bunch more space and I'm still getting the same error.

Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Try unmounting external SD, installing your apps, then remounting the Sd.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
Some apps u will have to mount storage on computer to get them installed like some games ....u would have seen if you read op for aokp ...known issue

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] titans10:
This is happening on GB roms too. Im on Blend EL29 and have the same issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kamrondroid:
I had this problem on ICS + rogue recovery. I temporarily reverted to stock recovery, installed the apps, reinstalled rogue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] schwab002:
It's very annoying. I don't really want to mess with recoveries. Oh well
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
I recommend this method. Try flashing any other kernel and install the app. After the app is installed, you can go back to your previous kernel. This is also happened to me and this method solved the space error.

Well like some others here I have a faulty S-Pen. It starts interacting with the screen about 1-2cm away which is VERY frustrating. After seeing some threads here I got in touch with Samsung Customer Support and this is what I got.

I sent

This is what I got in return.

I know thats total BS. Who would want a stylus that unpredictably touches the screen without touching it?

Your thoughts?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JolyonS:
Well, that's not how I would want the S-Pen to work and for me that's not how it does work so I'd suggest you get back to them and explain that what you have is a definite problem.

For me the S-Pen does pretty much exactly what you (or any other sane person) would want - it takes a gentle but quite deliberate contact with the screen to make anything happen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sumsy2011:
This is the same problem I have it really is frustrating :-!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bioweb:
The pen should be detected when slightly above the surface of the screen, that's how my Wacom tablet works as well, but it should never "click" without actually touching the surface so there's definately something wrong.

You could try to calibrate your sensors and do a factory reset. If neither solve the problem then I would press Samsung to send a replacement pen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] BenF1:
I've resetted, tried different roms and the only way I can get it to work normally is by moving the end of the pen. Its only a temporary solution though and only lasts a few minutes.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RudiRulez:
It's deffinately a hardware fault within the pen, its a tiny rubber o-ring between the magnet and the coil which breaks up over time allowing them to stay in contact when they shouldnt be, I replaced mine with cotton and it works like a charm now.

Samsung are talking out their arse's!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bioweb:
This is definately not normal behaviour as it defeats the whole purpose of the pen being pressure sensitive and it's just a load of bull that's what people prefer as it screws up any accuracy. I'm not aware of any setting that would invoke this behaviour so I'd say it's definately a hardware related issue.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] brooon:
My thoughts? Sorry for nerding, but the answer is: LOL! If this is how it´s designed to work, millions of users (including me) are using a defect device. :)

The only way to reproduce this pen-behaviour is to lie down on your bed and to use the Note with the screen pointing to the ground (technical reasons).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Sephi:
That confirms that the s-pen is scratching the screen! :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RudiRulez:
I've just sent them the exact same message as copied from your post, lets see what reply they give me :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] BenF1:
That will be interesting actually, I wonder if they'll offer you a new pen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gaugerer:
Samsung technical support are crap. I rang them because my 7.7 went into a boot loop every time I powered off and had to let the battery go flat to escape from the loop. The solution they suggested was to never power off and when I argued that I should be able to power down they hung up on me. I returned the 7.7 to Amazon for a re-fund within the 30 days and got a replacement from Hong Kong with 3g for £60 less.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RudiRulez:
They gave me a pretty standard answer about updating my firmware :/ , not impressed, i've asked them for another answer.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dafreaking:
Uhh curious as to how covering the button on the Pen would prevent ghost touches, but yeah will try it out.

This post on the AT&T Galaxy Note forums points out to the youtube video http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23004793&postcount=12
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RudiRulez:
Its because inside the pen is a coil which interferes with the magnetics field created by the note, however by wrapping tinfoil around the pen reduces the distance at which the signal is picked up by the pen therefore even a broken(always on) pen will give the impression that it works purely because its only giving a signal when it practicly touching the screen.

This isn't an acceptable fix, its more of a bodge, now if someone could source the o-rings that are causeing the problem here pens could be fixed simply and properly for pennies!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Alexanderbooth:
least they didn't do an apple and say your holding it wrong hahahah, in fairness though from experience you have to hold the s-pen the right way otherwise the input on the screen doesn't line up with the nib of the pen, anyone else noticed this? I think they designed it that way, because the button is exactly in the right place to press when you hold it the right way.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
Yup, that's how it's working on my Note - It gets detected around 1cm and shows a little arrow in CM9 - but I've actually gotta press it reasonably hard to get it to register a press or click.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dafreaking:
Hmm... I am on CM 9 v1 and I don't see this mouse pointer ever
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] go-away:
Yes I get this too, especially after the screen rotates. And I keep pressing that blasted button on the pen by accident.

I believe this is because these things are not designed for left handers (or men in general who have bigger hands than you kids and little tiny Asians!!).

I also have a problem with the keyboard(s), where I press on the screen is always slightly off and I make so many bloody typing mistakes.

Seems very slack not to at least have the option to select left or right handed use - or is it just descrimination :eek: :rolleyes:

LOL - OK forget my rant, I just found an option in my menus to switch to left handed. Must have come in an update and I never saw it :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Markuzy:
Sigh if it is because of a design flaw easily solved with tinfoil, then they better update it quick. Preferably with an erase side too as I heard other pens with that function does work on the note.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Mart_Bud:
My pen was doing the same thing. Although mine kept falling apart as well, so basically with the top of the pen off I had to keep pushing the nib around like you said you did, but eventually it stopped being a pain and never happened again.

Although now as I was getting my screen repaired I said that my pen was faulty...got a nice new one with a grey button so no more searching for that button :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
I can't comment on what the frankenfirmwares like that do because I haven't run them. It definitely happens when using a kernel built from the I9100 update4 source code.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Alexanderbooth:
I thought you could select left of right handed isn't it in settings sure I've seen it somewhere on the phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
This is the second time you've said that - and the second time I'll say you're on a frankenfirmware created by shoehorning N7000 bits into an I9100 build. (Mine was built differently.)
