So. JV5/JV9/JVO builds from kitchen with CF and HC kernels cause soft-reboots on my SGS I9000. I tested all of them by now. Tried the Talon Kernel 0.2.1 with JV5 and JV9, which caused boot-looping.
So I kept reading and found out that I was not the only one having this problem, but it seemed to be solveable by flashing a stock JVO first.
I already had Gingerbread Bootloaders, flashed JVK a while back, so I tried a few no-wipe ROMs as I mentioned above. All with the same problem. I lost connection to my cell network and it didn't come back. Somehow connected to the WiFi, I suppose. I could reproduce it by getting a GPS fix. But that was more or less related to my phone using wireless networks for positioning, which means that it switches on WiFi for just a second but without telling me.
Anyways, I thought I might have been wrong about the bootloaders being the reason to flash the stock firmware, so I did as it said: it specifically said JVO+ in the tutorial, so I went through the hassle and did the following:
- Flash an entire JVO firmware
- Reboot
(that one took a while)
- Full factory reset via dialer code
(that one took a while, too)
- reboot again, this time into bootloader, to flash a hc-speedmod kernel, to have root access and CWM
- reboot again, into CWM, to flash one of the ROMs I tried earlier
I ran back into my old trouble. So this is not an issue of the GB bootloaders or a previously installed version. The phone keeps soft-rebooting.
I re-installed the stock JVO firmware and flashed the speedmod kernel again, rooted via CWM menu and now I am just recovering my important applications via Titanium. Nothing bad happened yet, and it would have, with any of the kitchen ROMs Trust my, I almost tried them all
Nobody else wrote anything on that, so I thought I'd let you know there's no need to wipe all your data (like I did) and hope for the soft-reboots to be gone.
There's something seriously wrong there.
Anybody else having the same issues?
Cheers.

Yep, I had a whole lot of trouble with the Kitchen JV5 release yesterday, ended up giving up and goind back to Darky's 10.1. Mine would boot, and when doing a media scan, would soft reset itself. I could get it to work eventually by powering down before media scanner completed then powering up. Bit odd - tried three builds of JV5 with different kernels but they ended up all being screwy. Ah well, will see what JVP brings...
glad to hear that I'm not the only one crazy enough to wipe his entire phone for a new (and fast) operating system.
Anyways... I am now back to my old status. Re-installed most of my apps, sync behavior, BT devices, wireless APs, etc. blayallah...
JVO with a hc speedmod kernel is by far the best and fastest ROM I have run so far.
Kitchen builds are dead to me until some of the people who ran into the same problems as I did confirm that those issues have been dealt with.
Just for your information:
- battery life seems amazing, at least regarding to the sensor. Hope it's any accurate. Had it unplugged over night and lost 22% battery life with WiFi on in a bit more than 10 hours
- it responds VERY fast, compared to any other ROM I had before
- bluetooth devices have to be set up again, for some reason my phone doesn't like my headset any longer. I can hear people talk but they can't hear me. However, the microphone does work when I use my headset for text2speech. Weird.
Anything else seems just the way it was before. Just faster.
I'd be glad to hear if someone could still help me out with the soft-reboots, if somebody else decides to use the kitchen builds either way I won't until somebody else tells me it's working now

Why would u need to SOFT reboot ?
I don't *need* to soft-reboot. It just does that. Modem crashes, lost network connection. The phone doesn't actually entirely crash, it just restarts the network service and your phone is going to be offline.
That's a soft-reboot. No entire system crash or kernel panic, just the modem crashing.
That does happen when things are messed up
I'm having the same issue: on a JV5 and JV9 RomKitchen build with a JVO modem, as soon as I get a GPS lock, the phone soft-reboots.

guys, why dont you try the JVP v7 builds, its much better.
also, please select the default boot animation, else it will go into bootloop.
I can confirms that doing a no-wipe upgrade to JVP v7 fixed this soft-reboot issue.
Thank you for that information. I'm not in a flashing mood right now JVO is running just fine right now. Anything about JVP v7 that's worth the try?
JVO is running fine for now. So I'm not feeling like flashing everything over again.
Is there a simple way to just dump my current phone status, its ROM and everything somewhere to my harddrive and re-flash all of that over in case anything goes wrong?

its pretty much the same stuff except very good speed optimizations, 2.3.4, and few UI tweaks.
its been the same since the first gingerbread leaks. we flash it for new builds dont we
...and now it's just pissing me off. JV9 Kitchen Build. On GPS Lock I get soft reboots. What the hell?!
Trying another one now... crap. I thought That would be fixed by now.
So. Kept me busy, just to be sure: Each and every combination I tried using 2.3.3 from the kitchen caused soft-reboots on GPS fix. The phone was very fast with the Talon Kernel and Ext4 FS, but I can't live without GPS
So I tried a non-wipe install over one of the not working 2.3.3 roms.
I'm on JVP now, not as fast as Talon, so it seems, but GPS works, getting a fix at my window within 5-10 seconds, no crashes whatsoever.
So. If anybody else experiences crashes like the ones I mentioned in the opening post, I can also confirm that the JVP ROMs seem to fix the problem.

...as much as I hate talking to myself, it's still regarding the same issue, so I have to ask:
Saw the new kitchen build (JVR).
Two questions:
1. Is the soft-reboot issue finally fixed?
2. Is there a little language-switcher-button on the bottom left of the swype keyboard?
I use the JVO swype, and it has that button, and the new ones don't seem to have it any more? It's really nice if you need to switch between two languages all the time and you don't want to go into settings every time you need to switch.
Anyone know that? http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQC6orm5ZMAju2VzczB3MCbwEPeSH9yrYI6wxfdDGFCvkdpe7lQRg <- that one right here has it. Took me a long time to find that, because no swype version but JVO seems to have that feature.
I'd be glad about any answers to those two questions.

I have tried the JVR base available in the kitchen---nothing to write home about,went back to STOCK--far better!I imagine the Kitchen as we used to know and use way back is now a thing of the past and the last nail was Tricky also leaving...

Guess that makes me crazy too
I've also been tinkering with customising ROM's myself to get to the boot-loop - getting pretty proficient at it now (guess I should read up a little more first)
Hi.
My friend got her Galaxy no more than two weeks ago, and I installed the newest Darky ROM (10.1) on her phone, since it has been working fine on my own Galaxy S.
The problem is that her phone just stopped working... just like that.
She thought the battery was drained, so she charged it, and when booting it up it would remain in the samsung logo (boot screen).
Well I put it into recovery and formatted it into factory settings and thought it would be fine. Well it kinda worked: it started up to the setup wizard, choose language, insert SIM card etc. and finally when clicked the complete button, the screen stayed black and few seconds later a message came saying that there has been an error with the android setup configuration.
This is exactly the same phone as I have and mine is working perfectly fine. Dont understand why this phone is acting up.
Will re-flashing it with the same Darky ROM fix this?? The phone has got warranty, but I dont think they'll accept it anymore cause of the custom ROM I put in.
I also have a video of this, but since they assume I'm a spammer, I cannot insert any links for now.
EDIT: Problem solved --> reflashed with Darky's ROM, now working fine. Thank you both slaphead20 & MasterJam882
you can try reflash...or darkys ressurection...or ezbase rom
Just flash an official rom from www.samfirmware.com.
If u still have bugs and errors u know it's a faulty phone and u can send it to samsung without the fear that they wont accept because its an official ROM every user gets over KIES.

There is a problem. Phone spontaneously freezes and reboots .. The last hope for your forum .. Immediately apologize for my English. I use google translator.
The phone was in the store with 74 CU firmware. Put Root, Russian patch cmw. Everything was fine, but the phone did not work a day, and they almost never used, and the use of the network in the first place. I was advised to calibrate the battery, and the program defy baseband. I'm not used the phone. A few days later there were complaints that the phone periodically freezes and goes to reboot ... Only helps the removal of the battery ... When I received it a few days, it was impossible to use it. In any action it hangs. That is, I press the menu, configuration vayfay and everything freezes. I tried to flash the firmware 139. redlayt through 3.9. In airplane mode the phone is not hung up about .. So I thought that the case in GSM module .. But he, too, hung .. In the end, I installed CyanogenMod 7. Phone is better, but sometimes it still hangs. And it is not logical and unexpected. Working half a day. Then suddenly you come into a notebook and all ... crashed. In the case of market crashes.
I tried to change the CPU frequency. voltage. I tried to dump the entire cache and flash again .. does not help. It is your last hope. Perhaps this marriage. Help please.
full sbf
2.3.6 uk 188 defy full sbf wifi does not work properly the signal drops or reboot motorola closed bootloader s*ck
Anyone can help me? =(
have to send back this phone to CU =(((( so bad
I'm in uk with a second hand defy from eBay. Was just about to start a new thread detailing my woes. I've tried flashing several SBFs with no joy. Lots of fcs and reboots sometimes frequent sometes and hour apart. Seems to be mainly whilst using gps even happens when in flight mode.
Could it be incompatible radios? I would have though I would have problems with wifi or signal but I do not.
I've flashed the stock uk orange 2.2 rom and also tried the stock 2.3.4 sbf.
My next port of call was going to be cyanogen mod, however I am unable to install as I can find no way to instal a custom recovery. I am able to atchive root using super one click. However this OS where the success ends.
If someone could indicate a fool proof way of instantly CWM and CM I believe this rom will be my last hope, although ready the first post in this thread makes me think otherwise :-(
Your thought are welcome
Cheers
recently my trophy is behaving strangely. the hardware buttons stop to respond after several hours after reboot. The automatic screen lock then doesn't work anymore but all apps are. I have hard reset the phone but it keeps behaving like this. The only way to recover is to take the battery out and replace, then the phone starts and the time is totally incorrect, it appears to be back to the prevïous "crash".
can anyone help? thanks for reading!
Have you tired a factory reset? (If this is GSM Trophy, it should be okay to do. CDMA Verizon Trophy... flash back to stock first).
yes
Hi
yes i tried a factory reset but didnt help. I found out that if I keep the wifi off the phone is fine but after wifi is switched on the phone freezes after heavy use or few hours.
If anyone has any ideas...
Has your phone been updated via Zune to the newest software? I'm guessing this is a hardware issue though.
well.... yesterday i read about a way to force the tango updte through zune. I tried it and it worked. Zune updated my phone in 2 steps. I immediately turned wifi on and it has been stable (touch wood so far.... Looks like some bit went missing
Yeah, I can't really offer any advice other then to try restoring the backup Zune made before you made the update. If it was working fine before forcing the update, I'd say stick with that for now.
Am I understanding correctly that your phone was fine before the update?
If you can't restore your Zune update, you may need to flash a new stock rom to fix the problem (good-by data).
What carrier are you using for your Spark? Football's rom thread in the dev forum may have a rom you can use.
Hey guys (and girls),
I've got a strange problem with my phone.
Almost every time I have to shut it down it won't turn on again.
I can try everything like going in recovery or download mode, just nothing happens.
I installed JDC optimized cm 12.1 on the phone but the problem appeared after a failed factory reset in stock rom without anything flashed.
It helps when I remove the battery for a longer time, like an hour or so.
I installed a new bootloader and modem, I flashed a pit file but nothing helped. Flashing works without problem, once it turns on.
Generally the phone runs smooth and without any bugs or errors.
Could it be an hardware failure or is it a software thing?
Thanks in advance for any help! If you need more informations just ask. It's a i9505 by the way
It appears to be a software problem. If it is a hardware problem you would get the problem regardless of the rom that you flahsed.
Install the stock rom via odin and wait and see for two weeks whether the problem comes back or not. If the problem comes back then you might have a hardware problem.
I have the same problem. In another forum someone told me to be something relative to the power button but I've not tested that at the moment
Enviado desde mi Be Touch 2 usando Tapatalk 2
I have actually no problems once the phone startet, everything works fine.
It has had the problem first with stock rom, then i flashed JDC optimized Cyanogen and it was still present.
Then i thought it could be some problem with the Memory and i flashed a PIT, but that didn't change a thing.
Right now i'm without phone since 15 o'clock, its 00.15 now. That really ****s me up!
