Need to root / flash the phone of course.. ..
here are the specs on it:
USA AT&T
Samsung SGH-1777
Android 2.3.4
Baseband I777UCKH7
Kernal 2.6.35.7
I read thru the post.. downloaded Odin, Clockwork and updated my Kies to the latest.
Put the phone it debug mode, rebooted (power/down/home) to get to flash screen... I use Odin.. it sees the phone.. I choose the rom ( Litening rom v6.1) and only have the 2 boxes checked. hit start.... and nothing ever happens on the phone.
Am I missing something?? Please advise,
Papaman

this thread is full of win....
OP, can you do us all a favor, and when you brick your phone from a lack of attention to details, like say, using a ROM actually made for the device you are using, or flashing it the right way, that you just accept the fact that YOU broke your phone.
Please do not make everyone else suffer by returning it for RMA and claiming ignorance, all that does is increase the costs that the rest of us have to pay. We should not have to pay for stupidity.

Check the stickies. Plenty of help there. You can also Google root after galaxy sgh-i777. Do not do anything until you fully understand. If there is a problem while rooting check the stickies for the unblock/return to stock thread. Also check the rules in the general sticky. Welcome to the galaxy.

I HIGHLY suggest you leave the phone stock. It is a great phone just the way it is. Especially if your new to Android phones. At least until you read up on all the pros and cons of rooting. Then read all the stickies in the forums. This is all suggested for your benefit.

This is a self-serve forum. As told you when you joined, you are expected to search for info and to read the stickies. Start with the FAQ. This is not the help desk. You only get what you put into it and simply creating threads for things that can be easily found by searching and reading will make you nothing but enemies in here. Respect the forum, its rules and the many people who "work" in here for free.
Read the stickies, search posts, do research.
You know are ready when you do not have to make these kinds of threads...

Try them out.read the OP on different rom's and find one or two u like and flash them..
But reading is learning and the more u learn,the more u can avoid mistakes and bootloops
hahahaahah ,Hurry hurry step right up before thread closing!!!!+1 for that

Bye bye
You're right mate,i'll try them until i find the most suitable Rom for me,Thanks man!!
So let me get this straight, you know best Rom threads are banned and they get closed as soon as a mod sees them, but you still make one anyway??

Very simple answer read today's other two identical whats best rom posts .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1864789
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1864856
Likewise read last weeks forty odd whats best rom post or next weeks fifty odd .
But as has been said before if you have to ask this question stick with stock until you have a mind to make up and decide yourself .

You hope I don't close your thread, but you know that I have closed two of these today alone? :laugh:
Also.. thread closed, there is no such thing, seriously.. stop making these guys, they are pointless and waste everyones time.
I have looked everywhere for an answer but have found nothing. I can use my phone just fine until it completely freezes. I am left with no option but to take the battery out and restart and come back to a low battery that went from roughly 80% to 10%. I have no clue what to do. I'm not sure if i need to wipe and format. Can anyone give me some advice? If it's a case of having to wipe, can I have details on how to do this without losing information?
Thanks
Attached is my phone system info:

i think you have the original firmware, try to install the newest firmware LSJ you can get this at sammobile.com or you can choose a custom rom which you can find here

Yeah, you're on an official rom, and since you don't know what it means, I assume you don't underclock (UC) and/or undervolt (UV)
Ever considered rooting and flashing a custom rom? Or, like stated above me, flash some other official firmware through Odin to see if the problems still excist (except someone else has another sollution).
