SGS problem .

My SGS has developed a fault 2 days ago I switched the phone off & the next thing I know is I get what looks like a battery laid on its side on the main screen, it appears for 15 seconds then dissapears for 15 seconds & repeats. I can find no way to turn the phone back on while it is like this & have resorted to reloading 2.3 Gingerbread but if once reloaded I then switch the phone off then the problem comes back.
Has anybody come across this problem before & knows how to cure it or is my phone knackered ?
I tried to add a picture of the symbol on the screen & I do not have enough posts to be allowed to.

Have you tried charging it? Silly question but you would be surprised.......

No question is silly, but yes I have charged it

Have you tried flashing a "stock Rom" yet?...

Hopefully this will mean more to you than it does to me !
Is this a "stock rom" :-
firmware 2.3.3
Baseband version I9000XXJVK
Kernel version 2.6.35.7-I9000XXJVK-CL75655 [email protected]#2
Gingerbread.XXJVK
If it is not a stock rom were can I find one ?
Thanks
Colin

Many thanks, just installed jvq but still have same fault

I would try an ezbase flash, search in dev for ezbase and follow instructions to the letter, this should get you up and running on a basic rooted deodexed rom, from there you can try a reflash of whatever you want

[Q] Kies crashed Galaxy S update now bricked !!HELP!!

Hi.
I tried updating my Samsung Galaxy S to the latest firmware using Kies (all official), as it was updating i got this message: "disconnect the cable, then battery, then replace battery and turn on and then try again"
So i followed the given steps and i get this screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I searched on this forum and found a thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1134975) which i followed and lead me to this screen:
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-h9VbztnoEqs/TamSqYdBRyI/AAAAAAAAAEs/oxp7FUo5WRs/s1600/samsung-galaxy-s-download-mode.jpg
Only problem is, what should i do after this? It's on that screen. I dont want to root it (yet...), but want to update it to its latest firmware.
Kies it probably the worst, misguided software i've ever used.

Can you give a link to the official latest firmware, so i can install on to the phone.
Thanks

You could also try "emergency recovery" or something like that from the Kies. Our use Odin/Heimdall to flash stock rom. Don't worry you'll get your phone back up and running

I tried Emergency Recovery on Kies, nothing was coming up, so that was a fail...
Can someone please link me to a good tutorial to Install a stock rom on to my phone please?
Thanks.
Edit:
I've found this Tutorial, should i refer to it for my situation?
Edit 2:
Can some one link to a ROM that i can use for "[GUIDE] Flash/Install/Update to Gingerbread 2.3.4 to I9000" as the current one linked on the thread is dead.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139050
[GUIDE] Flash/Install/Update to Gingerbread 2.3.4 to I9000: Detailed guide for n00bs
Use jvu, one of the latest official:
http://hotfile.com/dl/140301534/be8872c/I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA.rar.html
No need to put anything to your sdcard as you dont have cwm.
Read the guide, get odin and 512 pit
Use search.

Thanks for the links!
I have looked everywhere and i cannot find the 512.pit, only one i found had a dead link.
Can you link me to a working link please?
Thanks
Edit 2:
Hey, nevermind, i manage to find the link and download.
I've installed the firmware it is 2.3.6! So happy
Thanks a million!

[Q] SU660 ICS Brick?

Hi all,
i just tried to install the ics rom v30c on my p990 (su660), no problems on the installing with smartflash,
but when i want to turn my phone it gets stuck on the lg bootlogo, so i thought this rom is only for the su660, why does this not work??
so i checked my phone again, under the battery is written: made in korea... so this is a su660 right?
so people can someone tell me wheres the fault?? ^^

Wow you were trying to install SU660 ROM on P990? Nice idea m8, I'm convinced if you try it again (maybe take the latest .kdz from today) it will work! Don't forget to perform a full wipe and format your SD cards before. At your own risk of course, but hey maybe you are the guy who can finally tell us if the su660 ROM works on our p990s ! :good:
But seriously, if you don't even know if you own a P990 or a SU660 you shoudln't be flashing around and instead inform yourself a bit better before you start doing this.
If your bottom buttons look like this you have a SU660 (which I believe you don't have)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

It's only the SU660 if it has two capacitive buttons and one physical button at the bottom.
The p990 has 4 capacitive buttons below.

Sigh, another bambi (no offense) on XDA developers who found out one of the only ways to potentially fully brick his phone. Have you tried nvflash and smartflash? You could have averted this by googling su660 but....

Does this update require agreeing to the ridiculous TOS they have implemented? I'm considering changing from StockPlus, but think it's completely ridiculous that they should require my signing a draconian TOS over 6 months after I started using it.
Is someone be able to disable it from the Rom? Which of course is a huge breach of the TOS if they signed it already. The way they have implemented the TOS is probably illegal, but I certainly don't have the money to challenge it.

Good tip, this still works with 1.2.771.

SGS slow booting and all crashing

Hi,
I have problem with SGS. When I got it from my friend there was Android 2.3.3. When i turn on the phone, booting took maybe 30minutes, then all apps started to crash. So I did wipe data and wipe cache in system recovery but it didnt solve the problem. Then I flash over Odin official firmware but still booting takes about 30minutes and all apps are crashing. I tried to flash three files rom via odin too but it didnt help. So please help, i really dont know what to do now, i tried everything
Phone is non-rooted, there is official 2.3.6 but all is crashing so it is unusable.
Thanks and sorry for my english

yes you can, use odin and the download menu of the phone (turn it of, then turn it on and press volume down + home + power buttom for a few sec)
there are a few guids in this forum how to do that, just search for it
