yupp you can call me OLD FASHINOED ;P
but TBH the no ringing , no display , no missed call BUG in FROYO is not helping me at all.
i have learned quite a hell lot from here at XDA , and now i am asking for another help from you kickass folks
I have actually decided that i am gonna backup my debloated ED01 installation which was suggested my DNOYEB and gonna install a debloated and all DL09 ROM.
If its available out there as an ODIN package then folks pl link me , if there is nothing then please help me debloat a stock DL09 installation ( i donno nothing about how it can be done )
also suggest me how to root it and which latest radios/modems and kernals are best to use with it.
THE REASON I AM FORCING MESELF TO STONE AGE ( LOL ) is that stupid no missed call , no display no ringing issue in froyo , the caller says he can hear a ring but there comes nothing at my end .
regards
EDIT :
ok found this and of course its adryn
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894126

This **** started happening to me in December while on eclair and it even happened when I activated an old win-mo phone for 5 days. It's all in the network and for me it started when lte was turned on in Chicago. And an acquaintance with an lg chocolate has the same thing happening to him.
good day.
Wth? U mean this crap will b there in dl09 as well.
I have been talking to a few guyz and they all say its a issue with froyo and Google has been trying to hide this by not indexing this particular issue.
But whatever I need a debloated snappier dl09. Got any suggestions.

Hey fellow xda members,
I have to check out my sisters vibrant this weekend.... (she is so not tech friendly)
Its her 3rd vibrant and all had same issues... Rebooting, dropping signal and data and the whole not sending sms and mms messages.... She talked to tmobile and they had no clue and essentially gave up on her....
What are my options to trying to get this working for her. And/or what can/should say to T-mobile about resolving this issue... They offered her an exchange at one time but it was a very low end phone... Not a good deal if u ask me..
1. Tried rooting on her first phone-wasnt successful...(i didnt root it so not sure)
2. Possible bad kernel or radio causing these issues... Hard to believe that 3 phones .
3. Still running stock software as tmobile told her not to update phone to latest software . (she did that with her 2nd phone and same result)
4. Could rooting and a finished rom resolve some or most of her issues?
(I have had several android phones and all were rooted so i know)
5.... CLUELESS....
Well if your trying to update your phone to froyo id recomend you to flash a custom rom from the vibrant developement if you dont know how to root your fone download the vibrant toolbox on your pc and it has like 10 steps (all of them are in order so you wont get confused and since your phone its not rooted theres and option that says ROOT YOUR PHONE start from that step.. click on that box and it tells you the steps and what you should do but you must have usb debbugin ebabled

Naw its all good I know how to root just not too sure if a custom rom would correct the issues she is having.

Try it if its still the same go to SETTINGS, WIRELESS AND NETWORKS, MOBILE NETWORKS make sure that the USE PACKET DATA box is checked and if motbtry to contact one of the devs one of them could be WHITEHAWKS or somethin lik that... they are gona tell you what to do

Odin to 2.1 then d/l rom manager then root then get Biwinning or Trigger or ZenDroid all are Froyo roms all will resolve you problems
The problem you are having is a result of human action......... the chances of 3 phones all having the same problem is like winning the Lotto.......
Human action I love it!!!! Lol will show my sister that. . Lol

I went over to my families house the other day and my sister said, "look its doing it again". When I looked over the phone was shutting down and rebooting. I asked her if it did that alot and she said it had just started in the past few days. She did not mention dropping data connection or having problems with sms or mms. A while back I rooted her phone and added MobileAP but that is all. Everything else is still stock and no official updates were applied either.
My plan is to backup all her stuff this weekend and flash something onto it. I told her we would find a good stable ROM for her and some theme options she would like and just do it all on sat or sun. I'm not sure if that is gonna fix her problem as I wanna believe its a hardware defect but she doesn't wanna exchange it just yet and I'm done arguing with her. If that doesn't werk I told her we would have to put it back to stock and call T-mobile. That's our plan, hope it helps on ur decision. Good luck!
@kawika thanks it didnt help lol
Im going to root her phone and install Iunno looking at a 2.2 rom maybe...Trigger rom.
I cant believe that three phones later she has same issues.. Specially since her hubby and daughter have a Cliq xt and have better reception then hers...
? do i need to install a new modem/radio as well as flashing rom? And how do I know which is the right one?

And you stated in the OP, she is on stock software. For sure? The rebooting when signal dropped low was a bug in the services.jar of our initial i9000, android 2.2.1 ports. This was of course patched by Eugene373 with further work by birgertime (and some fumbling by myself) in the official ports of 2.2.1 for the Vibrant. If she is definitely on stock software with no mods though, then that doesn't apply, but was my first instinct.
Most roms we have out now, with the exception of GingerCloneR3, come bundled with modems. They are most likely the modem that the rom chef/dev likes the best, but you can always flash a new modem on top of a custom rom. Different users in different areas have different results with different modems. Gotta test them to see what works the best for her.
Flashable modems are all here, courtesy of scrizz: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868774
Those can be flashed over any rom, just make sure you grab a 2.2 modem for froyo, or 2.1 for eclair respectively.
You might want to start with running Odin to flash her back to stock software, and then go from there. If you are going to do that, I recommend a modded Odin package by Eugene, available here: http://eb-productions.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=samsungsgs&action=display&thread=3 . Its stock-ish JK2 Froyo for the Vibrant, already rooted, with superuser and busybox, and modded 2e recovery so you can easily flash and install Clockwork Recovery if you choose to do so. That file is my go to, when all else fails and I need to get back to stock.
Good luck with your endeavors, hope some of this helps.
she is def on stock 2.1 for sure.!.
thanx... will keep yaz informed heading on the road now.. b there in 5plus hours
This sounds very familiar to problems my Vibrant was having. It turned out to be a flakey SIM card. I went to my local T-Mobile store and they swapped it for a new one at no charge. That fixed all of my SMS & connectivity issues. It might be worth a try, it definitely wouldn't hurt anything to get a new SIM card put in.
Lol she had one replaced as well and same issue..

I sold my 3D to someone and have been trying to put a new rom on it for em. Everytime I flash a 2.3.4 rom everything works EXCEPT during a call you can hear the person talking but they cant hear you. And I know the speaker works because voice commands work fine but during it call it doesn't work, period.
Sounds Like a personal phone issue..I've been on 2.3.4 with multiple roms and never had this issue.
Sent from a little place called ETERNITY in the 3rd Dimension.
I never had that problem running 2.3.4 ROMs either.
I honestly don't get it. Every 2.3.4 rom I tried to put on the phone would have the issue with not being able to be heard during a call. I tried 4 different roms and had the same issue everytime. Put a 2.3.3. rom on it and I could be heard during calls fine. I dunno but I got tired of fooling with it.
I did notice one thing though... when wiping in recovery I got an error that said
E:can't give path "/sdcard/.android_secure" to format_volume
Think that might have something to do with it?
OP, did you do the EVRC-B mod? If so, undo it.

I don't even know what that is lol. This is basically the scenario. I can flash ANY 2.3.3 rom or lower than that and everything works perfectly fine. But as soon as I flash any rom with a 2.3.4. base everything works except for callers being able to hear me. It's crazy... I even tried the stock 2.3.4. deodexed update and it was the same thing. Flash a 2.3.3. rom and boom, they can hear me again.

The EVRC-B mod enhances voice, the same settings found on Verizon phones but in some cases it might not be supported by the tower. Its accessed in the EPST edit menu, via your MSL code.
But if you're flashing the ROMs with voice performance changing, I'm not sure whats going on. As I seriously doubt the EPST settings get changed by the ROM.
I could be wrong.
I don't know either... im clueless. First time i've ever had a hangup like this when flashing. I put it on the phone for her and everything was all good until she got a call and realized they couldn't hear what she was saying. I thought maybe it was a bad flash but hell i've tried every rom in the development forum almost.
none
Give the guy his money back, put it under your car tire, then smoke the tires, that phone sounds retarded.
Try revolution by Mike and see if that shows the same issue.
If it does then either your doing something wired while flashing, have some app messing crap up, or its hardware problem somehow.
Likely its user error somehow though. I dunno any roms that flip evrb on for voice by default for the mere fact that its not supported everywhere.

But how would it be user error only for the 2.3.4. roms lol. Im sayin... i'm not doing anything different. Just download, transfer from pc to sd and flash through recovery like I always have. If it was user error it seems like id have problems with the 2.3.3. roms too. I gave up on it though.. technically it's not even my phone anymore lol
My girlfriend recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S 4G (SGH-T959V). I enjoy all the features I get from rooting, etc on my G2. I saw the Gingerbread update from T-Mobile and have installed it for her. I wanted her to be able to have root, remove bloatware and have the lagfix (voodoo, assuming it is still needed) working. As I was getting ready to find her a good ROM this CM 911 dustup happened. It's ok if she keeps the Samsung ROM, my question is where is this 911 "feature" stored? In other words, what can be done to her phone without destroying emergancy calling? I am pretty sure just rooting it is fine. Removing bloatware after rooting should be good also. I believe the lagfix replaces the kernel. If the kernel gets replaced will that break 911 calls? Is anyone working on a stock GB ROM (as officially released Nov 15) that would have root, removed bloat, and anything else safe that keeps 911 working? I would be glad to wipe the phone, root, remove bloat, (lagfix?) myself and post. I just do not know what is safe to play with. Is this just a radio issue, library issue or kernel issue? Any information would be appriciated. I would like to make her android experiance a good one that still allows her to call 911. I have searched the forums and the web but can't seem to nail down a good answer of what can be changed and what must be left alone to allow 911 to work.
911 operators are drunks anyways... here's some proof, provided from a random Google search.
This is the vibrant forum,sgh-t959 not t959v... very different..
From my understanding, cm7 is the only one with the 911 problem (and any rom coming from cm7)
. Stick to samsung roms and your good. Also the 911 thing isnt the end of the world.. you call them, they cant hear you.. hang up and theyll call you back

Ah, since the download for the updater said "Vibrant" (offical from Samsung) and the model number is so close I assumed they were mostly the same. I see now there is a S 4G forum. Sorry for the mix up. I would assume this phone could have the same issues if CM was ported. Currently it is listed as not supported. I'll move to the right forum and dig some more. Sorry for the waste of space. If anyone knows if these are affected by the 911 issue feel free to chime in. Or if a moderator wants to move this to the othe forum feel free.
Thanks
Lol the waste of space is no big deal and your right, id forgotten that they call yours the vibrant 4g. But still the two phones are very different hardwarewise, idk why.

You cant use vibrant rom. Both phone have different hardware. BTW you know the T959v 4g have Official Gingerbread.
i'm curious what is worse with the missed call bug.
I am talking about when people call, are phones don't even ring or show a missed call.
I have a new job that is a on call job and 3 times already within 5 days my phone didn't ring when i was called. and as anyone can expect that doesnt look good to the employer
I will be replacing my fascinate soon with a bionic but until friday i must try to make this work if anyone can point me in the direction for the rom that this bug doesnt affect as bad. thanks.

I too have a job that requires me to be on-call so I fully understand the importance of your question.
I had the missed call bugs a handful of times back before the ed05 over the air update was released but have not had a single problem, that I know of, since then. I am currently running AOKP M4 rom with glitch kernel and the eh03 radio.
So, what rom are you currently using?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA
Sry for taking long for a reply been in the mountains with no signal working. But I'm on stock eh03 with root and kgb kernel.
I generally don't care for aosp on the fascinate due too data drop a lot but if it isn't as effected by the missed call bug ill use it.

I posted a thread yesterday about how when i made a call the person on the other line couldn't hear me but i could hear them, when someone called me i could hear them but they couldn't hear me, i resigned myself to the fact that i would have to bring it in for repair as it was a hardware issue, flashed the 3 Ireland stock ROM, decided to try once more, made a test call and the person could hear me, got them to call me and i could hear them and vice versa so i put it down so maybe corruption in internal SD card or something.
I rooted again, flashed CheckRom and Franco kernel and set the phone up again as it was, called a friend earlier and he couldn't hear me, got him to call me and i could hear him but he couldn't hear me so im dumbstruck as to what the problem is here, i initially thought it was the microphone which was the problem but then after flashing the 3 Ireland stock ROM no problem, it was only after flashing CheckRom and Franco kernel (which i always use) the problem reappeared, so has anyone any ideas as to what might be causing this, everything else works as normal, texts, Internet,etc it's just calling someone they cant hear me and that's probably the most important thing about having a phone.
Id sooner not bring it into Fonemenders as ive heard some bad reports about this company, it's still under warranty with 3 Ireland and this is the company they use for repairs.
Phone has been fine up to this and i haven't dropped it or anything.
Cheers
84 views - no one got any ideas?
It will be a wrench if i have to stay on the stock ROM for the sound in my calls to work but i am dumbstruck as to how this has happened as it never did previously, is it remotely possible that 3 Ireland may have changed some settings whereas the sound in calls only work with their stock ROM, unlikely i know but im looking to explore all avenues before i bring this in for repairs.
Well posted problem all over the board in custom roms etc for starters .LFB Modem or something like it .

i haven't seen anyone post an issue like this on here yet (unless i missed something)
i am gonna revert back to Stock ROM and test it again, then ill root and flash a kernel and see what happens.
Truly bizzare this is
WORKING AGAIN
Flashed Android Revolution out of curiosity to see what happens, made a call to a friend and he could hear me fine, got him to call me and likewise so im now sure it isn't actually the mic which is faulty it must have something to do with ROM and / or Kernel but im fu*ked if i know what it is as ive been using CheckRom and Franco kernel for a good while now without any issues, isn't there anyone else on here who has had similar issues like this?
I'm just setting up my phone again, i hope this problem doesn't come back.
I have the same problem, only that not only on checkrom... I have tried several other roms and I have the same problem, with an exception... i always hear them and they can't hear me but is not continously... 15-20 seconds is ok then 10-15 they can no longer hear me... this is on checrom v3 with lbf modem... ANY OTHER ROM, kernel or modem no sound what so ever. It seems there are too few of us in order for devs to look into it... unfortunately

FINALLY someone else with the same issue, basically when i call someone i could hear them but they couldnt hear me,when they called i could hear them but they couldn't hear me, the problem appears to have been (hopedully) resolved now ive flashed Android Revolution, ill have to avoid CheckRom which is unfortunate as it's always been my fav ROM but the problem appeared to come back after i flashed back to stock ROM then back to CheckRom,
Hi I have the no sound in call when I remove system apps or freeze apps I was use the unofficial aopk ROM I'm now using the cm10 preview and still have the same problem I've tried loads of different modems with no luck it

There are a lot of reports with different roms of the same thing and so far all I've seen have been modem issues. I saw some people said they've tried different ones which seems weird, I'm running Checkrom 3.5 and Siyah kernel 1.4 with the new XXLG8 modem and have no problems. I was using LFB and had issues and LF3 worked as well.
It's definitely not a mic problem is using stock fixes it so don't send it in for repairs, just try some of the newest modems. I hope that helps.

I never previously had a problem running check rom and franco kernel but ive no idea what happened , i do freeze stuff in Titanium Backup but only stuff wgich people have already tested and it's safe to freeze so it's quite baffling what caused this problem but since flashing Android Revolution everything is fine it's a superb ROM too close to stock which is what i want and everything works 100%, ive no real interest in CM10 too many bugs for my liking ill just wait until the official Jelly Bean code is released for the Galaxy S3.
