[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdelbachir:
Oi, guys, I really need help please!! I did wipe data/factory reset in clockworkmod, then i closed my phone and flashed the stock rom (XXKPU) with Odin. But now my phone isn't booting! Or more precisely, It's just the sequence with the "S" appearing that comes over and over again!! What did I do wrong and what can I do please??
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldflame09:
Boot into cwm and either wipe data again or your are going to have to flash the stock again. I have had to do that in the past

This is your WIKI http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Plus/GT-I9001 it contains everything you need to help you, get a better understanding of your phone

1) 19001 uses Odin 4.43

2) need AriesVe.ops file for flashing

3) IF CWM failed flash CWM 6.0

4) If boot failed flash a i9001 boot loader ( look in My Android collections , link below or use your WIKI)

I am running the latest AOKP, and was having problems with tiny chat. I decided to reboot into recover and wipe everything. I wiped all the options that allow a wipe, and then went to reboot. It would not reboot - it said there was nothing in /system. Now, if I try to turn it on, it gets to the HTC screen, and nothing.

Did I just brick my phone?

Some folks in the other forum posted that I could download an RUU to flash. How do I do that if I can't boot?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] thejosh86:
Not bricked just no OS loaded.

You should just be able to boot into recovery and copy a rom across to storage then flash.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
Reflash the Rom, you have nothing.installed

Power off your phone by holding power for 15 seconds

Hold power then volume down then release power while holding volume down

It will boot into hboot and select recovery, reflash and boot it up
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] hcricket:
There is nothing in recover, and the only thing under Install is TWRP.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
Your recovery mode has the option for mass storage, use that to put a Rom on the sdcard and flash it
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Itaintrite:
In Recovery, click on Mount and Mount USB storage. If you have proper drivers, your computer will detect the phone as a HDD. You can copy files to the internal SD card and flash in Recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] hcricket:
It says I have to format the drive to continue. Should I do that?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
Yes, anything you had is lost already so you need to format
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] TheNightHawk223:
Noooo... Make a nandroid before you wipe... You can always extract your data from your nandroid ;).
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] hcricket:
Okay. I went into TWRP and chose mount, then mount USB storage. My computer picked it up and I transferred Evita and Gapps to it. However, when I then go to Install, there is nothing listed.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droyd4life:
Hi fellow XDA members, it's that time. Time for my good ol' Vibrant to hit the sack lol. With a slightly cracked screen, I know the value of my Vibrant will drop (I'm going to try and sell it.) But I also have an otterbox case, a green silicon case, and a clear plastic case with a built in kickstand. Furthermore, I have the original box + headphones and manuals. It's rooted and has Android 4.1.1 JB on it, does $140.00 seem reasonable?

P.S. It also comes with 2 extra batteries + a battery charger.:good:
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsgun357:
If it were in good condition $140 would be fair but as you explained maybe half that IMO.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
I think once you have a cracked screen the price is lowered dramatically, but it depends on the severity of the crack. I can pick up a used Vibrant in good condition for $140 or cheaper, so with a cracked screen it probably shouldn't be more than $100, but even that might be pushing it. Looks like ebay have screen replacement for very cheap though.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burn_n_daylight:
What would you guys think a new in the box never used Vibrant should bring?

Also what would you value same new vibrant but rooted?

Just curious, I am getting my water damaged phone replaced via warranty and am trying to decide if I should keep or sell the new one.

Thanks in advance and gl on selling yours I think the accessories will help your value but agree that the crack screen will be a harder sell.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsgun357:
$150 is a fair price for a new or in new condition vibe. Rooting, IMO doesn't add value, any monkey can root a vibe.

my blu kuban rom is working beautifully actually but it tends to reboot randomly or freeze is there something wrong with that??? when it isnt doing that it is amazing is it my phone or the rom also has a tendency of crashing on random apps
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PanchoPlanet:
That's typical behavior for ics roms on the Epic if you don't have all your ducks lined up in a row. The best way to line them up is to read, read, and reread the op and any related thread concerning the rom in question. Following the thread will answer most of your questions.

What rom were you on before this rom?, gb to ics? , clean install? giving more info will allow others to help.

I wasn't on any rom before this just stock rooted gingerbread EL29 with clockworkmod installed
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elijahbrown:
That is a pretty stable Rom. As long as you wiped all data, cleared cache and cleared dalvik cache, Then flashed, all from within CWM, you

shouldn't

have any problems.

if you followed all those steps and still have problems then... well I'm not sure...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PanchoPlanet:
I had tried various ics roms including the BluKuban while on el29 and would come across an occasional glitch that would be related top apps or data issues. When going from gb to ics you need to make sure you have a clean install. That means factory reset so that no gb data is present, this is the most common cause for the issue you have.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] go2car:
Hi XDA users,

I have a Sprint GS3 with 4.0.4 on it, but it pales in comparison to my previous GS2 on 2.3.* ...

(calendar [Mark/Space MIssingSync] swipes from week to week are MUCH slower, 4G data NEVER connects, data seems slower in general, etc., etc.)

All in all, i'm just extremely disappointed with this phone; and although the last time I was digging into my phone's ROM seemed like it was in the Palm Pre days, I believe I'm ready to take the plunge.

The GS2 still screams on 2.3.* and I can only imagine/hope that this GS3 would see great benefit from a down-grade...

Might anyone offer any pro/con advice on this effort? Am I crazy?

I found a thread for MAC (10.6.8) users, and am getting ready to give it a go... (right after I do some massive data back-ups, etc.)

thanks, in advance, for any input.

jim

To answer your question:

It would be quite interesting to see older versions of Android run on this phone.

However, you'll need kernel building experience to make one capable of booting Gingerbread as well AOSP experience. Not sure how easy it would be to backport older software to new phone in the case of Stock TouchWiz.

well hey, that's why i thought i'd ask the smart people - wasn't really needing the smart-ass answers but i guess that's what i get for thinking outside of the [fish in a monitor] box...

regardless, i still think 4.0.4 sucks, comparatively. not sure what you guys are doing that makes it so superior... i just try to make phone calls; keep a calendar current; post pictures and use the internet... seems painfully slow... even typing on it quickly seems to bog it down.

anyway - guess i'll try the ol' factory reset, with a fresh 4.0.4, and see if it snaps out of it, a bit.

happy programming guys.

you must have a detective phone my gf gs2 is a joke compared to the speed on this phone . This isn't the fastest phone out there but it's not slow by any means.

And if you having speed problems with internet we all are. Idk if it's a gingerbread versus ics issue it could be your phone is only running one core because you flashed something. Try running some benchmark test to see how bad your phone is performing. Hope that reset help you.

If your SG3 isn't running way smoother than your old SG2 on Gingerbread, you've done something bad to your phone. ICS on my SG3 is a quantum leap smoother than Gingerbread every was, and JB will be even better. Perhaps you should look at what tweaks you've done to your phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JohnnyEpic:
Jim,

I am not going chime on some of the trolls who are above all but I will have to agree that your statement was a bit ludicrous. You have to take into perspective what you just said to a bunch of Galaxy S3 hackers. It's obvious that there is something wrong or we would've saw an iPhone ad bragging about the S3 'downgrade' and that didn't happen. :rolleyes:

So, the first thing I would suggest is a factory reset. Assuming you are/were not rooted, let it run for a day and see what happens. Its possible an app could be causing your problems. There are many things you can do to slow things down but its impossible for me,us, xda to guess. Perhaps change up some applications that you are using...?

If this persist, I would suggest taking it back to Sprint and see if they can swap/fix it.

Your next option would be to root and try a different rom. However, if it is a hardware issue, I would want to replace it before I start rooting/making it my own.

As some of the people here mentioned, there might :D be some very useful information to achieve better 'speed'. I personally use JellyBomb specifically because of the dev and support amongst its users willing to help. You may benefit from others, each their own...

I sympathize as I myself was a webOS fan and can definitely tell you, this is not a walk in the park like webOS Internalz made it but definitely achievable considering almost every process (root, roms, themes, hacks, flashing) has a pretty thorough explanation if not a video.

Hope it works out.
