[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shizz22:
If you are not on an ICS build then follow this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1494493

And when you are finished with this guide:

Put the slim ics 3.6 base and essentials on to your sdcard

format data

clear cache

clear dalvik cache

then flash the slim ics base

then flash the essentials

If the base flashed too quickly ie. under 5 seconds then flash it again before flashing essentials.

This is what I have done and its fine.

Hope this helps.

Hi, I exaclty did like shizz22 suggest and it works great for me.

Hope you'll be able to do it and have fun with it :)

Thanks guys. I will use that later. Now i'm very happy with ICSSGS. I will use your info later.

Yeah I quite like ICSSGS. I'll probably go back when their new one is out.

No luck

I've been happy Slim ICS 3.4 user for about 2 months. Then checked that there is a 3.7 version and decided to upgrade. After download of base and I9000 essentials I've made an md5 check, which failed for both files. Considering that in the Android development topic people reported successful update to 3.7, I decided that the md5 published on the site must be wrong. To make sure it is not a download error, downloaded them several times but the md5 check failed everytime. Still decided to go and update and now I have softbricked my SGS. I'm a new user and don't have 10 posts to warn other users in the Slim ICS thread, so if someone here could do that, it would be great for the community. Now through the painful unbrick of my phone ..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firenxe:
The slim installer does not contain any modem

So upgrading from gb to slim requires you to flash a modem after the base+essential to get service :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silverchairbg:
Is this advise for me or original poster? Also how does it help? Coming from gb rom you inevitably have a modem, so what gives?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shizz22:
Just follow this guide to get back to GB and onto and ICS rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1494493 (I'm assuming you can't apologies if you can)

Then just download the .zip files and transfer it to your phone and flash accordingly. http://code.google.com/p/slimics37/downloads/list

I downloaded the base via my phone and got the Md5 error but I flashed it anyway (wasn't planning to but forgot about the error) and it worked fine. I downloaded the essentials through my computer though so that may have been the problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silverchairbg:
back in the game

I know how to unbrick the SGS, at least from softbrick, thanks for your advise anyways. I just wanted to warn anybody else that might be absend-minded and does not check the md5s. But after all it seems you are right, although they did not match, after my unbrick I used the same files and this time it worked. Here's what I did: flashed essentials first, rebooted to recovery, formated system in mounts and storage, flashed base + essentials, rebooted. All fine and dandy, except, there is no modem as the original poster stated. Flashed one modem from the respective section here in XDA and I'm back in the game.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueFlame4:
I don't know what you did, but for me it worked the first time and I didn't have any md5 error. I downloaded it from the website, not via OTA.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shizz22:
OTA gave me the error. Still worked with the Base. Used the essentials from the website.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cannondalerider:
I recently updated my S2 to ICS (Vodafone). It didn't go well, I had lots of issues. Vodafone sent away to get fixed and all appeared well except for one continuing problem, my phone's download icon (orange arrow) is on continuously. By complete chance I turned off my new Dell laptop and noticed the orange icon on the phone's screen turned off. Turn on the laptop and connect to wifi and orange icon on phone lights up again. Any ideas what could be causing this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
What or where is this orange download icon? I'm confused.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rocky23:
dint undastand the prblm.....can u b more detailed or some screenshots
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fxrb:
Maybe the OP is talking about the little orange arrow close to the data/wifi icon in the status bar. Unless I am very much mistaken this arrow shows up when data is received (i.e. on inbound traffic).

If you (OP) use your phone as AP for your notebook, then the notebook might be the source that is requesting data from the Internet - possibly a Windows update running? :eek:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cannondalerider:
fxrb is correct. but the download arrow only comes on when the laptop is connected to the internet. The laptop is not downloading anything when this happens and is not connected to the phone in anyway. This is very weird and doing my head in because I can't solve it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cannondalerider:
Picture showing orange icon next to wifi symbol. (bit blurred)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fxrb:
The notebook is not connected to the phone but the notebook and the phone are connected to the same Wifi, correct?

If you have access to the Wifi router I suggest you use a dumping tool for the network traffic, on Linux this would be something like 'tcpdump', but check your router. If the orange arrow is due to inbound traffic (which would be correct) than the dump can tell you what data gets transferred.

If possible you should also try to connect the phone and the notebook to some other Wifi and see if the problem persists.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pileot:
perhaps the notebook is trying to map network devices, check for shared files, etc. Some wifi software on various devices does this.

It COULD be detecting your phone connected to the same network and is trying to determine what device it is, what kind of shared files it has, that kind of thing.

Other possability is its a virus on your computer trying to spread to other network devices.

Or it could be some sort of IP conflict between the laptop and the phone, that may be causing some sort of loop between the router and your phone? that ones hard to say, usually windows detects ip conflicts tho.

Couple ideas off the top of my head. Could be one, could be something completely different. Gives you a place to start troubleshooting tho :P

I have heard alot on here about hacking the phone and stuff to get the FM radio feature to work. My question is does anyone know of an app that just takes advantage of onboard radio? Like unofficial on the market?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] craig@xatik:
This was the easiest solution I have come up with so far.

(I haven't done any research in 3rd party apps)

Edit: Sorry this solution is 'hacking' so this doesn't really answer your question.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] americasteam:
I don't think you will have any luck with an unofficial app that works. Rooting and installing the official apk is about as easy as you can get. If you need to return to stock for a return, the original RUU removes the tampered flag in the bootloader. Anyone here would be glad to help if needed. :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JimmyStale:
Hey guys,

I'm looking for a little help here. My Skyrocket seems to be having radio/modem issues.

Instead of having a symbol that displays cell signal, I have a circle with a line through it. This is true with or without a working SIM inserted. For baseband version it says "unknown".

I've tried flashing to stock and that didn't seem to make a difference. I got this phone second hand so I don't know if the previous owner tried to flash an incompatible rom and borked up the radio firmware possibly?

Any thoughts about what I can try?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
That all depends on which method and tar you used. Some tars dont come with the radio. and with the wrong radio on a rom you will get a RIL mismatch and no signal
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JimmyStale:
So I'm unsure how it got to its current state. (meaning the circle with a line through it) To return to stock I used the K0nane tar that's in the sticky in the dev section. I don't know if that has a radio in it or not but flashing that didn't seem to change things.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
That doesn't have a radio in it. Look in your "about phone" and tell me what your baseband and android version says.

After that I will probably say to flash the sammobile tar...

Also, Did you have the correct plan added to your service when you switched phones?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JimmyStale:
baseband version = unknown
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Right..

Assuming your plan has been provisioned for the new lte phone, I would flash the sammobile tar in odin
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JimmyStale:
I'm going to give that a try. I suppose I'll just search for sammobile?

The SIM i'm using was provisioned for my previous Skyrocket. I ended up trading that but used the same sim in my new phone. So, I'm assuming the SIM/my account should be proivisioned for LTE since I never had AT&T change anything on their end.

And just to clarify, this doesn't really seem to be a "no service" type problem since its as if the radio isn't even recognized by the hardware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Right, seems to be a ril mismatch.

Factory reset and then flash the sammobile tar

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JimmyStale:
I'm downloading now. I'll report back after I flash.

Cool, hope it works for ya!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
every time I see a thread like this, I can only count the number of posts until x says "flash Sam mobile tar," and then poof! problem solved. lol I just wished people read around a little more
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
There you are! Where ya been man?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JimmyStale:
Lol, I appreciate the helpful info in your reply. Just so you know, I don't seem to be having the same issue as any other post that I've seen. Unlike the other posts I've read, I don't have "no sim" or no signal, or no LTE. My problem almost seems like an issue with the SIM slot itself. I think I can rule that out because I've actually replaced the SIM slot with a known good SIM slot. The other reason I think I can rule this out is because I am unable to access the radio related content from within the service menu. Unfortunately I don't think there will be a ::poof:: that fixes what I have going on. (I wouldn't mind being wrong on this)

So I flashed the sammobile tar (multiple times) but no luck. The baseband version still reports as "unknown". What's more, my phone reboots after about 15 or 20 seconds. Very odd. Any other thoughts on things to try?

Hopefully the attachments are here
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JimmyStale:
I flashed EFSFix through CWM and then SAMMOBILE tar through ODIN. No luck, but ODIN did take about twice as long as it did the first time I tried flashing the sam .tar. Same symptoms, circle with a line through it and phone reboots itself after about 20 seconds. The baseband version still reports as "unknown".

I flashed back to stock through ODIN, flashed CWM with ODIN, and then flashed EFSFix again. Same exact results as the first time.

Next I flashed back to stock using ODIN, and flashed UCLE2 ROM through ODIN. Flashing this causes the reboot issue to go away, but the radio issue remains. (I thought to try the UCLE2 ROM because that's what was loaded when I first received the phone and the phone wasn't rebooting itself then)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JimmyStale:
I actually can't do this. When I *#2263#*, the only thing displayed on the screen is "ServiceMode". I'm used to see other options there but they just don't show on this phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jamesd86:

For those of you who are experiencing crashes, are you logging in with your Facebook account or your OMGPOP/normal email account?

I quit Facebook since Feb'2012 and so I'm logging in with my regular email account.

I wonder if that might be why it's crashing? :confused:
