Is there a mod yet that will add soft keys to our device gb or ics?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeebz:
So I have a major problem. My power button on my phone stopped working out of nowhere. I went to put my phone on the charger last night, my hand was pressed against the power button, so as normal the Reboot / Recovery / Shutdown menu popped up. After I couldn't get my power button to work at all. When my phone would sleep, I'd have to pull the battery out and put it back in (strangely, my Cappy would turn on by itself once I put the battery in). From there, I figured out how to reprogram the hard keys, so I used root explorer to get into the system folder on my internal SD and I remapped the 'Volume Up' key to work as the power key, so now I have a working power key. The only problem is, is I can't flash anything now.. well, I can, but since I no longer have a Volume Up key, I can't boot into D/L mode or into Recovery if something goes wrong during flashing. My phone also freezes on shutdown when I use the new remap. So I'm not sure what is going on with it. This is really troublesome, I was considering paying the $399 and getting the Galaxy Nexus GSM from Google and putting my SIM card in it, since it works with AT&T, but I really don't want to buy a new phone.

Any help at solving this and getting the normal power button working again would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Edit: I am running ICSSGS[RC4.1], if anyone needs to know the ROM. I am using whatever the stock kernel is that comes with it.

Make or buy a Jig (see my sig below for links) and Odin or Heimdall back to a Stock i897 Firmware, KK4 was the latest GB (see Dev Forum One Click Sticky Thread). See if that fixes the problem.

If not, then see here... Samsung Captivate Power Button Repair . This is a reliable and trust worthy company to do this job and more.-- (see here for references, etc. ). The guy who runs this biz is known as connexion2005 on XDA.

I'm sorry this happened to you, it's a bummer when hardware dies.

If you do this I am in no way responsible for your phone.

two options:

#1

follow the teardown guide here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=740022

and see if there's any crap messing with the contact for the power button. if there is clean the crap out and re install everything.(my brother fixed his button this way)

#2 if the first way doesn't work

go here and but a new power button module.

http://www.globaldirectparts.com/Samsung-Captivate-i897-Replacement-Repair-Parts-s/6412.htm

or search other sites for a power button

and order yourself a new power button module and re install it.

follow the teardown guide here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=740022

and see if you can find out a way to replace your power button.

I've taken my phone apart many times it's pretty easy, just be extremely careful, once again I am in no way responsible for any damage YOU cause.

hope it works! let me know! just be careful, it's really not that hard though.

It is not a good sign when HW faults. In General section there's also a thread on remapping Search button as Power. I'm going to include it in my future ROM - good use for useless Search button.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rest0ck:
Hi,

I'm sure there are a few threads about this subject in general(!) but I'll create this anyway!

Im currently on ICS Slim 3.7 (or 3.6? Whatever) + Semaphore. I am pretty happy especially because it is one of my first custom roms without any rnd reboots or stuff like that. But idk .. i'm not sure it fits my likings 100%.

I just want a smooth Rom without any lags when I use apps like: Facebook, Email, Reddit, Browser, News App .. that is pretty much all I need.

Would a GB Rom be the better choise? I used Darky before and was pretty happy (especially about the design) except for some random reboots .. what GB Rom would you suggest if you would?

Thanks, rest0ck
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madushan92:
Did u try ics333? It seems stable. I also felt the need to go back to GB, but after I flashed that ROM that feeling disappeared :p:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanisleryan:
Dmore3.3 or Ninja gamers rom v12 not yet released but sounds really promising.

Sent from my I9000 running JW5 with Dmore3.3 and Semaphore 2.7.4
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bopsch:
I can confirm this, ICS333 is quite amazing, very stable and very good battery life :) however, Facebook sync does not work, which is a Facebook-related problem and (afaik) apparent in every ICS ROM. But the App itself works fine ;) so, if you do not need FB sync, you should definitely try this one! :)

[Edit:] If you want to stay with GB, perhaps Stock Roms would suffice, especially regarding stability... I'd suggest JVT with midnight or semaphore kernel (the JVT specific ones, of course) or the newest JW5 with semaphore kernel
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madushan92:
Btw if u need fb sync, u can try hexsync from play store, it syncs ur contacts the same way fb app did... (u'l hav to pay for it) Bt personally i dont like fb sync, i uses lot of battery. Even when i was on GB i disabled that
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drowjune:
Well, MilkyS MOD is the most smooth rom I have ever flashed！
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rest0ck:
Hey thanks for your responses.

I did try it but ..well .. not even a minute. I was sure not to lose everything (I flashed from ICS without any wipes) but I did. So I tried to install ICS Slim again, hoping to get my apps etc back. I didn't :<

Only thing I really noticed: Notification toggle bar looks like cm9 - my experience with that were horrible. While on Slim my notification toggle bar looks perfect (only text, simple, ..I like that).

"Stay" with gb is wrong in this case :P

Thought about a stock Rom too but hm .. well.. they look a lil bit bad. Darky Rom looks so good imo - black with green highlights and good looking icons etc. Perfect imo! I can't install a skin on a stock rom can I?

btw I don't need fb sync :)

Im thankful for any further response.

rest0ck
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorigo:
Now a lot of people will say ICS is great for them, and i was very keen to grab ICS on my phone at one point. However careful consideration has made me decide otherwise, for the time being anyway.

GB roms, especially ones which are latest builds featuring tweaks and other such performance improvements, tend to perform better in real world use than ICS roms. Perhaps it is due to all SGS ICS roms being ports. Perhaps its a technical thing. I don't know but what i do know is that GB can have better battery life, smoother performance and the ability to play any game with oomph if need be and run any app like a charm.

And there are still functionality bugs i hear of in ICS that i dont have to worry about in GB, and a fix is probably coming, but the bugs arent there on ICS.

Now im not saying ICS can't do this, hey perhaps some roms for some people can do that, but the few benefits ICS brings dont really entice me enough when i have a fast and stable rom on GB.

If you are looking for a fast stable GB rom, I'd suggest Gamerzrom, the dev works wonders and my battery life is great and i can run pretty much any app with aplomb. And with his insane amount of free ram, i have no worries with the few RAM-persistent apps i choose to run :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bopsch:
Yes, you can! especially on JVT, there are many "skins", for instance one which makes it look like DarkyRom which itself looks like simple AOSP Gingerbread... do not have a link right now, just search for "JVT AOSP theme" or something like that, I found one once... You might also try UOT kitchen (http://uot.dakra.lt/)... here you can "cook" your own theme :)

But DarkyRom is in my opinion still a good choice... I would suggest 10.2.2, it is rocksolid ;)

[Edit:] Anyway, you should _always_ perform a full wipe (wipe/cache/dalvik)... If you do not, you may encounter problems
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rest0ck:
Heard a lot about Gamerz Rom - maybe I'll try it if I find a nice theme (used theme is pretty ugly imo). Darky 10.2.2 is good? What about the newest version 10.4.2?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vertron:
Elite 1.2 is a very good ics rom worth checking out. Very fast and good battery life!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinu_h:
I would recommend Dmore's 3.3 too. Good battery back up, no bugs and more importantly; essential ICS features are becoming available as add-ons to GB anyway. S voice, SGS3's Touch Wiz, Ringtone, Wallpaper and others.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rest0ck:
Well I tried DarkyRom 10.4.2 cause I already had it on my hdd. And I have to say that I don't really like it. Is this charge-to-100%-bug still exisiting in newer GB Versions? I hate it :( .. and why can't I download all my apps? I had to download mysms through a browser (the .apk file) cause I wasn't able to install it in the play store?

And which Music Player can I choose to not turn on my display to change a song? (holding Volume Buttons in ICS does the trick). Now im missing ICS ^^ .. except for the look.
[LG Optimus 2x] Bochdalek:
Can someone confirm that if on the white sticker on your phone, behind your battery, is written Made in Korea, that I have an SU660 phone ? I want to try a new baseband, should I choose for a (ported) Su660 BB ?

Thx for your help
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
Did you check the settings / about phone?you should normally the phone model there....

or with the stock dialer...u may try this *#*#4636#*#* and you should get the phone information normally...it works with P990 but i dont have a SU660 so you need to check mate
[LG Optimus 2x] tablighs:
All LG O2X phones should be made in korea..Mine's a p990 bought in Singapore, made in korea too.

SU660 comes with a digital tv capability if I am not mistaken, the capacitative buttons arrangements are also different. Its easier to tell them apart.

But if P990 & P999 is 100% identical, but P999 is US version and has different partition layout which is incompatible with p990 roms. This is where you need to be careful not to mixup. Just look at the sticker under your battery.
[LG Optimus 2x] Bochdalek:
Ok I checked and there is written P990 - Made in Korea. Should I go for the proper P990 313 baseband or the SU660 ported 420 baseband ? :)

Thx for your help
[LG Optimus 2x] ghadap:
I think you should stick with the stock bb which is for your country.. tried new 0420 bb, the difference is 0420 bb use drains more battery and my standby time is better using original 0725 (HK, IND, SG)

Edit: Also my data dropout is less using stock bb.. :)

Hi all,

i have an unlocked at&t one x. i'm using it in india on vodafone network. i wanted to know if 3g will work on this phone? i see the E symbol on the notification bar. does that mean that it will work only on edge? the frequency bands seem to be compatible. is there anyone who is already using it on the same network and can help me out with this? thanks.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sandys1:
If you go to your dialer and type in *#*#4636#*#* , you will go into testing mode - where you can check your network settings. Verify that your network is not set to something like "LTE Only" (which is not available in India).

Preferably set it to "WCDMA Preferred" or "WCDMA Only" (You can also play around with HSPA ).

See if that works.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] hypermaster:
Having the same problem..

I have an AT&T Unlocked HTC ONE XL (Eviita)

Its Bands seem to be compatible with 3G Bands in India.

I have tried everything (*#*#4636#*#*) and tried all banks.. on "WCDMA PREFERRED" it still shows "E" and my sim comes 3G data plan is active.

I have Unlocked Bootloader, S-Off, Rooted, Installed Cynganemod 10.2 (Android 4.3) with G-apps and its all working fine, but still no 3G.

Any help on this from anyone.

Theres only 1 thing i can now think of... when u go into (*#*#4636#*#*) mode and click on Phone Information and scroll down, u can see one tab which cannot be clicked and it dimmed out, it says... "OEM-specific Info/Settings", but you cant click it.

Is this a Data Locked phone?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
When buying any phone from a source other than your carrier, you need to do the research on band compatibility BEFORE you buy the phone. As this is set in hardware, and is can't be modified. The fact you say "seems to be compatible" implies that you aren't sure.

Also, you haven't mentioned what carrier you are using. The OP says Vodaphone, and I can't find any info on what MHz band Vodaphone uses for 3G. You need to know what band your carrier is using for 3G. Your carrier needs to be using one of the bands 850, 1900, or 2100 MHz for 3G (HSPA). Otherwise you will not get 3G on this device.

That doesn't mean anything, did you make that up? Either the phone is SIM unlocked or not. There is no "lock" on the device that would make you get EDGE but not 3G. Getting EDGE but no 3G typically means that the device is not compatible with your carrier's 3G network.

There is still no UI to switch from MTP mode to USB Mass Storage Mode. I think this is a mistake because many PCs do not support MTP or don't support it well. USB Mass Storage Mode allows your phone to show up as a USB drive when you plug it into a computer and is much better supported. Workaround and issue is covered in more detail here:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
I don't use heimdall either, but from past comments, if it doesn't flash the unified tar, then you should try specifying the modem, kernel, and ROM as individual files (which you can download from the 2nd post)

The individual files in the 2nd post are 7zip self-extractors, so you should extract them first, then you'll have a .tar.md5 file. Untar that and you'll get the modem.bin, zImage, and factoryfs.img

There are command-line options to specify each type of file.
