Hey Guys
got some problems with my galaxy s
tried to delete the contacts manualy and mixed up some stuff.
then i replaced /system/app/contacts with the one from the n1 from froyo
after this i did a hard reset and a cleared the cache.
now after reboot i got a lot of fcs and cant enter menu or anything, but i need to enable usb-debugging to come in to recovery mode or download mode since this phone has no 3 button recovery or download mode
does anyone has some sort of suggestion how to solve this problem?
greetz and thanks for every reply
And guess what
It had to be posted in android development section!
Tried adb in recovery?
tried it and didnt work since adb isnt activated on the phone and i cant enter settings menu because i everything fcs within a second
Ah rite, I thought ADB was always active in recovery mode...Apparently its not.
And yes, this looks bad. Nothing comes into my mind... Is there a way to flash update.zip from external sd?
i guess there is no way to flash it without recovery...
if i gett wifi working is there a way to open adb via wifi without using an app like adbWireless or with the terminalpro?
Thread moved. Why was this posted in Development?
WB
I think this is one nasty brick...
Does kies recognize the phone? There is a way to reflash current firmware using it...
sorry for posting in developer thread...
if i try coneccting with kies i get android.process.media fc
I'm afraid I cant help you. Try good folks from #project-voodoo on freenode.
Lack of 3 button recovery is a *****.
jea i still dont get why they even blocked 3 button combo
well ill try a little more and tomorrow im going to call the shop were i bought it...
lets hope they are realy nice people
*edit
if i try to conecct with kies i come to that point that kies says " Das gerät wird verbunden" wich is german and means something like the device is beeing coneccted ...
wanted to give a short update
i am getting a new phone tomorrow and then i will be sending my old phone back to the shop where i bought it hope this one doesnt have the 3 botton mode locked

I'm new to sgs and android,so hopefully this is a noob problem and easily fixed and not something more complex.I've searched and read alot of posts and not found another problem similar,so maybe someone can help.
Got the phone recently and flashed Darkys v7.0 and very impressed by the rom.
Basically my incoming calls dont show up,when an incoming call happens,i get a vibrate and some sort of notification flashes on the screen for an instant then disappears,then my network signal drops out.
I've tried another sim and different service provider,same problem which indicates some issue with phone,have triple checked all my settings in call settings,answering is enabled.
I can make calls,sent and recieve sms messages and connect to net/mail via my 3g,so cant figure out whats going on.Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hi!
Unfortunately, same thing here with me. First, I flashed 7,5 and the problem appeared. This mornig I put new rom 7.6 but still problem remains. Everything works, but incoming calls dont. Im trying to capture message that flashes quickly, but with no sucess...
SOLVED!!!
Factory reset did the thing. Calls are incoming as they should. (setings->privacy->factory reset)
Hope it will work for you.

Hey i have tried this and have possibly bricked my phone as all im getting is the Galaxy power up screen and nothing else,tried to get into recovery and nothing,ah well my android fun maybe over,might just get an iphone,seems a bit simpler for a knuckledragger like me
I really doubt that factory reset coud brick phone. Try to boot in recovery/download mode with 3button combination (hope you have it) and flash new ROM.

try to flash speedmod recovery on your phone, do the most recent stable version, once you get into recovery you can see if it truly is bricked, if you get the common SD error then it is bricked but if it's complaining about some data missing your still in luck.
check out what to do here....i posted about this a while back also if you want to look at my past posts.....

I had exactly the same problem; installed Darkys 7.5 after which I couldn't receive any calls anymore, did a factory reset and got bricked. 3button to recovery didn't work on my phone, but luckily I live close to a Samsung service center where they reflashed my phone.
I am curious what was causing this. If it is solved I would like to try the rom again, cause it looked great.

Hey currently all im getting is the yellow triangle sign with the android logo cleaning up and it says ''Downloading'' and on the bottom it says ''Do not turn off target'' that just stays like that for hours and nothing
Now i never had the 3 way download button working or checked,i pretty much did CWM and flashed darkys right after buying the phone.
When i try to get into CWM all i get is the Samsung Galaxy S gt i9000 start up screen and nothing.
Thanks for your help
I have the same problem excecpt I flashed "leap in the dark". Will factory reset erase all my data? If so are there any other options
Its really pissing me off.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
i now decided to flash darkys 7.7
same problem
Hey Everyone..
Ive always been able to get into both download and recovery mode...but when I was going to apply a ROM to my phone i checked it and now i cant access either of them....
I havent flashed a new firmware or used ROMS or anything yet....it seems like it just stopped working?
Have i done anything to disable it or something????
Should i just do the FIX (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785201) to get it back working or is there something else i can do...
I have Froyo 2.2
Baseband-HVJP3
Build-FROYO.HVJP4
Thanks
i would suggest you do the fix, but be patient and read properly, cause one little mistake will brick your phone, and you wont be able to get into download mode to fix it.
i have no idea why your problem has arisen, thats very strange.
perhaps you should invest in a USB JIG as well. a very life saving tool
ahh k then.....
Maybe i should try wiping and reseting my galaxy s ?.. maybe ive installed something that blocks it?
Anyways thanks for your help
Hello everyone,
i have a weird problem right now.... i am using Windows 7 - btw i F-ing LOVE IT!!! and i'm trying to get my Galaxy i9000T to Froyo or Gingerbread... i might not know what the difference is or even if they are different things... if someone could explain this it would be great... i've search everywhere in this website and i've found answers as to how to upgrade my phone, but nothing seems to work, so this is my last resort right here....
the reason why i need to enter download mode and flash my phone is because i had it with Gingerbread, but for some reason my "soft keys" where acting erratically, so i found these ROM:
- CODE_I9000TUBJI1_AP_PDA_CL568719
- CSC_I9000TUUBJI1_MULTI_UUB
- MODEM_I9000TUBJH1_CP_PHONE
and my phone came back to life , but after this my phone cannot go into download mode to get the updated firmwares....
i've found numerouos options in this site to get into download mode but none work, this includes Android SDK, removing and holding the battery.
once i get into download mode then i don't know how to get Froyo or gingerbread in my phone again??

Found some thread

you could try starting download mode with adb... or with a homemade jtag (worked for me everytime)
Yea try usb jig.. lots of thread here that'll help and plus if u dont want to do it on your own, amazon sells it..
use the usb jig!

Lets hope you haven't hard bricked it like I did. Are you not able to get anything on the screen at all? Does PC Odin show a cable connection when you connect your phone to your PC via data cable?
Not sure what exactly do you mean by phone starting with no visuals. How do you know it's starting up if you can't see anything ?
Anyway, check if you can enter download mode again - power+home+vol.down. Even without screen, after that press volume up to continue - if it works, Odin should detect your phone. If it does, just flash it again. Probably just a bad/unfinished flash.

Or you could try a USB JIG if that doesn't work.
Moved To Q&A
Please post questions in the Q&A section
Ahem. Read guys. He said he gave it to vodafone for service.
OP just wants a hint at what might be wrong with it.
screen gone black
cheers guys.to answer some of the questions.first it still detects in odin and i have tried or roms or updates.still not working.2.you can hear the start music when i power on.then the screen is just black.
Ok so I purchased an i9000M that was advertised as broken (got it for cheap) to see if I could get it going for my step daughter. I turn it on.... I get the samsung boot screen and goes black when it should be booting OS.
Windows still recognizes it somewhat. If I look in device manager under "portable devices" It shows a "j" and "k" drive that are identified as i9000 and i9000 sd or something like that. Although Windows sees it.... It wont mount these drives unfortunately.
Things I've tried ( Before someone suggests I use a JIG............. It doesn't and will not work on this phone)
USB JIG (tested and working on my Hercules)
SD Card Partition (EXT4 and FAT32) because I suspect borked internal storage
SD Card Partition (ReiserFS and FAT32) Still nothing......... then I realized the phone probably wasnt rooted
3 button combos ( every single combination) nada
plugging in USB cable while holding volume up and down...
ADB Reboot recovery/download ( not recognized because I cant turn on debugging)
ETC ETC ETC........
I have been searching google for hours for some kind of clue as to what can be done other than JTAG repair and All I come up with (no matter what site im on) is " Use a USB JIG" duhhhh Its getting rather annoying.
Im no stranger to flashing ( no expert) but this one has me stumped. I was considering buying a RIFFbox anyways but I thought maybe some experienced users out there might be able to suggest something.
My hope is that something can be done with the J and K drive that was mentioned. Perhaps I can format and somehow push a rom straight to the internal storage without any assistance from the phone itself...... I know..... wishful thinking. or perhaps boot straight from external SD???? That would be interesting!
More to this.... I realize this question has probably been asked a million times because it seems to be a common issue on this phone but I suppose my long winded question really boils down to my last paragraph which I havent seen suggested yet.
EDIT: I have a Windows 7 AND kubuntu 12.04 dual boot if any suggestions require linux
Any help would be greatly appriciated.

My Android Solutions should get you started but FIRST ensure your battery is no malfunctioning and Battery contacts are good and not loose.

Thanks. i will have a look and experiment tomorrow.
I'll report back my progress
if it pops up when you plug it into the computer, check if it does in odin. if does in there too try to flash a stock rom. or better yet take this download and follow the read me intructions, except the dl mode part cause you said it doesnt work. try both with the phone on and off. no it isnt the bell version of the pom but it will work. you will problably want to root it then install galaxy s unlock tool from the market and use that to unlock the phone aswell.(cause it not the bell rom)

As I mentioned.... no download mode, therefore.... No ODIN. Unless someone has some magical way to make it work otherwise. The computer knows its an I9000 at least. Kies says its in the wrong mode and I have no UI so debugging is out of the question.
Also: Xsenmen. I was unable to get any of the tools to connect. In one section you mention that AndroPlatina attempts to connect while booting? I was unable to get this to happen. I even tried the "heat trick" to no avail
