Well that's interesting because I've been trying to workout what's been causing random rebooting on my new i9100t and I think you just nailed it for me... every now and then I do use Bluetooth for textab and it would. Its not straight away with it though but now I'm thinking about it that is one constant through every time I've come back and its sitting at the Sim unlock screen.

Might be a coincidence but I'm going to run with it and see where it leads.

Not only This but Phone FC problems was happening too but luckily I solved the Phone FC problem with one of the posts which is in this thread replaced Phone.apk

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17018812

I tried nearly all versions of the GB's and I can say it WIFI and BT kills the phone and restarts the phone I captured some of the logs with the logcat but no one on this forum did give a direction to fix it unfortunately.

I am using now Stock JVR with Virgin XSA CSF + Semaphore 1.6 + GalaxianEE

I can say WIFI and BT is somehow fixed on Galaxian Kernel.

Yet to test other bugs.

Latest Kies Update to 2.3.3 Fixes Bootloader...

Hi there,

So I updated via Kies to 2.3.3 (Virgin, stock all the way) and the update fixed the 3BR issue known to have affected some SGS handsets - the main thing that has stopped me toying with ROMS so far. Just wanted to post this as I haven't found a thread/post reporting this thus far - worked for me anyway.

So, the question now is - where to from here? The phone is more responsive, but perhaps the lag will come back after some use. Is there a noticeable difference in UI response times etc with a custom ROM as opposed to the stock 2.3.3?

What's recommended?

Cheers,

Xav.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jbutcher91:
you dont need to wreck your phone with kies, there are heaps of 3br cwm-able zips available out there
[Galaxy S I9000 General] michellegalaxy:
My 3BR was fixed by the 2.3.3 (Optus) Kies update and I too am now going to get a new ROM but have no clue what I am doing. The lag was fixed for a week or 2 for me but now it is unbearable again so time to play. Starting my research now!! :)

Back to XWJVN

Hi

On XXJVQ since June. Phone is stable except that I notice th 3G signal strength low and sometimes disappear altogether. I have noticed an Optus specific rom in Samfirmware XWJVN. Should I keep JVQ or go back to this Optus rom? Not sure whether the signal is an Optus issue or a phone issue?

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sencafe:
Most likely it's the modem. If you are with Optus, look for modem SRJV1 and flash it. I'm using that and everything including GPS works well.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TieNN89:
Don't think I've posted in here yet

Anyway

Had my Galaxy S since the week after it first came out here in July?

I'm now running Android 2.3.4 JVR which is excellent with no more annoying lag and no bloatware like the 2.3.3 Optus released
[Galaxy S I9000 General] puddin23:
I've toyed with a lot of custom roms but went back to stock for a few months, albeit deodexed, but finally decided to check out CM7. It's a little different, but so far I really like it.

It's snappy, great to look at, theme changing is quick and easy with the app.

I would suggest though, making a nandroid backup of your current phone and storing it somewhere. The best option would be to try out some of the roms yourself and see what suits your fancy. Also, get yourself accustomed to ODIN/Heimdall flashing, as you will probably need it at some point in time.

My rule of thumb is, the more posts a rom's thread has, the more people will probably be able to help you if something goes wrong :)

It's a little daunting at first, but as long as you read the instructions through completely, flashing is pretty easy.

Flashed to 2.3.5 XXJVS with Dark Core 4.0 JVS kernel. Seems to be running pretty smoothly at the moment, and no issues with the WiFi.

I'll be running with the JVS modem that came with the ROM for the next week or so to see how it performs.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tvcdev:
I just bought a new Galaxy S from Optus, it's my first Android and I've been reading through the documentation and guides because I want to flash it. I'm worried though if the phone ever breaks, what will I do to flash the old firmware, is there any way I can backup the ROM of the phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] beaver2233:
stock firmwares are found on samfirmware.com (the latest optus included, JVN, I believe), so if anything does happen you can flash back to that ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tvcdev:
Thanks. One quarrel though, that gives me the PDA but what about the MODEM and CSC?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] beaver2233:
The modem and csc should be included in that file
[Galaxy S I9000 General] goughymachine:
Some of the firmwares from samfirmware are 'one file' firmwares. Don't quote me on this, and check on samfirmware 'cause it explains how to do it; but if it's a one file firmware you just put the one file in pda and select no others. You also don't select repartition and don't select a pit file.

I think I remember this being the case the first time I tried jvn. But I must have found a 3 file version somewhere because I'm running jvr with the sv1 modem and optus csc.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ausduckz:
I can confirm that I9000XWJVN on SamFirmware.com does have the 3 PDA, Modem and CSC files.

I would get Odin and flash a kernel only. Such as cfroot kernel. Go for a similar letter but higher like JVO JVP with the cfroots or a speedmod kernel is always good to start with.

A question about the FM radio.

When I flashed JVR stock I had full range FM spectrum ie to 107.7MHz. Now I've got only Europe USA region and only goes to 106.3MHz. The one thing I've changed is modem to JVQ (just experimenting). So does modem control this and if so, why does JVR modem have our region (or does it) and not JVQ. Both were from stock firmwares from samfirmware.com.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] theltusexige:
Hi all. Ive been using a stock 2.3.3 jv6 rom for ages. It works really well. Its only downfall is that you cant root it. Any way. Tried litening rom 5.4 as only one i could find for the i9000. works really well. Fast and looks brilliant. But it has a downfall aswell. Its modems are slow and i dont get amazing reception. And i couldnt lock it onto the 850 baseband. Devoed. So im back on jv6 wondering if anyone knows how to change my csc and pda as i installed the jv6 modem but made no difference. Or i should try out cm7. any idea
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shavey:
Unfortunately no love for this modem on the Telstra network once outside the metro areas. And you can't enable 850mhz either so back to reflash.

Hardware Differences between Telstra and Optus models

It must be true.

I run a telstra prepaid sim in an originally optus i9000 handset.

I have done heaps of searching and research to try and get the 850 next G band to work but with no luck.

I find the best modems are dvjp9 and xxjvk, jvk being that touch quicker. But still I don't get download speeds like I should as I'm stuck with the 2100 band. I sit next to friends with other androids on the 850 band and their speeds are much much quicker.

I have tried all the stuff they say in the forums such as the *#2263# and check with *#0011#, they dont work, when selecting 850 only it either gets no reception or connects to 2100.

I guess this post is a final quest for hope I can get this working, any ideas? Or is this actually hardware?

On a side not it is always connected to 3telstra towers, is this normal?

Thank you for all your help in advance

Matt
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jbutcher91:
optus have a custom handset made to prevent its use on telstra if people ever leave, their phones aare dual band 900mhz you need quad band 850

and 3telstra is the old 2100mhz ie 2g

Is anyone here experiencing the wake issue (aka sleep of death) where the phone will not wake from sleep but rings when someone calls it?

This seems to only occur on Gingerbread. I've tried various versions (no custom roms) - the official Optus ROM as well as Stock XXJVQ, but after a few days, the wake issue will occur. As long as i stay on Froyo (2.2 or 2.2.1), the phone is perfect.

Are there any known fixes or perhaps a version of the ROM that is known to be reliable? Happy to run a custom rom based on Gingerbread if there is one that is rock solid/stable with good battery life.

Hey fellow Aussie XDA obsessives!... Now i'm no XDA noob and recently have been flaon the same phone shing my friends galaxies and I've encountered a problem I've never had. My friend is with optus and normally it it's a simple APN edit to get data working. I'm with vodafone and have never bothered changing csc's to my carrier or even country as a simple APN change is all it takes.

...anyways just flashed a new rom for my friend's optus phone and then restored titanium backed up APN country ,account etc... And NO data/3g. I've flashed two other roms with no problems on the same phone. Weird.

Any suggestions? The best I could come up with is that the phone 'thinks' it's a, tablet and therefore needs the "connectcap" APN instead of yesinternet.

I'll try flashing XSA csc and i'm sure it will fix just hate to leave my mates phone half-pimped lol!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rlorange:
sleep death is usually kernel related... More information please. Do you overclock under volt, which kernel do you use. Which scheduler does it use etc.

Also there is a bug I've found where the phone doesn't like switching from Wifi to 3g while asleep. Try switching one off while using the other to avoid constant changes when traveling

[Galaxy S I9000 General] silashack:
Rather than a restored APN, I would clean out ALL entries and then put the two back in manual, PITA to do but you know they are correct.

The phone did work before you flashed? and it was Optus? not Telstra

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Mr Majestyk:
If you use a JVR modem say on JVS, does this fix any wifi issues?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] toddmworth:
Modem doesn't effect wifi, the wifi driver is in the kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Mothatt:
I thought it was in the rom...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] toddmworth:
Negatory... Well, kinda... Your ROM will have a kernel in it, which has the wifi driver in/with it... if you flash a new kernel, you'll be flashing a new wifi module with it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] schewie:
The issue occurs running on stock Samsung roms. I'm not running a custom rom or kernel and definitely no OC or UV. I've tried a couple of different stock Samsung Gingerbread roms but to no avail. Have had to revert to Froyo 2.2.1 to regain reliability/stability.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rlorange:
Ok that's unfortunate sounds like your phone is on the outer fringes of quality control.

Gingerbread uses on demand frequency scaling which jumps from low to high frequencies which your phone doesn't like. Froyo 2.2.1 uses conservative which is less demanding.

My advice is to buy "tegrak OC ultimate" from the market. You can alter any voltage for any frequency by 1mv increments up or down.

Try raising or lowering the Core voltage of 100mhz and 200mhz by 5mv at a time till it fixes,:)

[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrIwik:
Poor 3g signal could be to do with the modem you were using at the time. JVS is good, I'm on stock JVS with semaphore kernel, JVR modem and stock+ theme. Works like a charm.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] samvdias:
Thanks. Will give stock JVS a go. The Optus version I have appears to have better 3G signal but not as stable as JVQ as well as the clutter of 11 Optus apps that I never use.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrIwik:
You can always use the JV1 modem on JVS if you find signal isn't as good.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zedaycee:
I'm using a JVR kernel on CM7 and it seems fine, slightly better than the JVK standard one on CM7. I'm not sure if the modems work the same way on Samsung ROMS and CM7 ROMs though.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrIwik:
I know I should be asking in one of the CM7 threads but its alot to read through. What level is CM7 at now, is it usable on a day-to-day basis without flashing every nightly the comes out?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zedaycee:
It's actually quite good nowadays on a day to day basis. I'm only nightly 130 but they're up to 135 now I think. I haven't had any problems with CM7 so far and the battery life is good nowadays. Even the headphone button problem has been fixed and you can flash from Gingerbread (no need to downgrade to Froyo anymore).

I'm using it on the standard CM7 kernel, just about to try out the DTJG3 modem which someone said was good for Australia.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] toddmworth:
+ 1 CM7 is great. I wouldn't recommend it if you use any of the samsung specific stuff like the fancy camera toys or 3G video calls, but if you don't need them, and you like to customise, it's the bomb.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sencafe:
+1 for CM7. It's very stable for me. Some report the occassional sleep of death, but never happened to me. I've been using CM7 since nightly 104, prior to the kernel.org break-in.

I have upgraded from the original firmware to Froyo 2.2 (this worked well for a few months).

Then after some time to JVS and Ginger Real2- R1.0.0 however in doing this last upgrade I've lost network service( or very limited in the city only and no internet)

I've tried JVQ,JVR, Darkys Rom, CM7, GingerReal, I've flashed XDA CSC via Oldin and CMW, manually changed the Access Point Names to a variety of Internet variations for Telstra (including the ones recomended for Galaxy S in Telstra store), Now I've run out of ideas.

I originally thought that because Samfirmware hasn't got 2.3.5 for Australia this meant it wouldnt work here, but reading this forum it's clear other people have it working and have great reception.

I know people have been flamed for not doing their research, however I have honestly looked for answers without luck.

Please help.
