Then mobile restart. now wen it restart you will see a random green dots around the the S mark.
it is not a died pixels ! i am sure!
PS: i dont have MicroSD card . just the 16 GB internal Memory !
PS: i can open downloading mode
PS: i can open Recovery Mod.
PS: System is " NOT Rooted "
when mobile start up , it will try to scan the media storage , at this point the mobile is freeze and turn off !
now i tried to format the Internal USB before system reach the Scan point.
i did the format , but if i put any file of images in the USB storage , it will freeze.
and with a normal use after 2 min , mobile freeze , restart , and stock on the boot loader , some time a can not even start the mobile , i need to wait 15 min and then try to restart it.
i update the frameware zilone of times , and Now, am on LPS ICS .
When the mobile start installing the programs ! it Freeze
i did format (webe) cash and user data , same thing ,
i did install android
2.3.3
2.3.6
and now ICS 4.0.3 LPS
same thing !
When i start the phone it just reach the ICS home screen , Scan the media , freeze , die !
ps: the phone is kip getting warm !
please advice !

remove external card and sim ,try booting an c if it works,then only wiv ur sim in try to boot...

Backup data and Factory reset is always the first step .

Sounds like hardware failure to me, no amount of factor resetting will stop that. I would get in contact with a samsung service centre if I were you.

try to full wipe, even your stuff, the flash to stock via odin

i did format (wipe) all things in my mobile .
and as i told i did reinstall a stock android
and i told that i dont have any MicroSD card .
any way is there a way to permanent unmount the internal storeg and use a MicroSD card instated ?

had the same problem, after updating to ICS (UK Sim Free). I just did a hard reset and now it seems to be working ok. Though the phone does stop responding at times, when I try to copy files. But if i leave it be for a 5-6 mins, it starts working again.

but what i need is to disable / unmount the internal memory and use the MicroSD card as a memory !

Hi Guys , I have a problem with my SGS II , it reboots itself automatically , and I notice that the problem started since I updated to firmware 2.3.4 XWKI4 via Kies ( before 2.3.3 ) and never been rooted , and I don't want to root it just yet , so anyone have any idea what causes this problem and any solution ? please share , thank you .
If you want to stay on stock maybe try factory resetting.

-Ok, first try to move back your apps to the phone and test it.
-If it keeps rebooting just take out your SD card and keep the testing.
It will solove your problem for sure!
Thank you I will try to move back the apps to my phone and will see what will happen , will get back to you if anything improve
it can boot randomly when :
1. GSM signal is weak
2. Simcard is damaged or too old
3. Battery is too hot
4. Some APPS are moved to SD card (it allows you to move it, but actually, apps doesnt like it)
5. External SD card is slow, 4 or below classes, or too small sizes of sd cards (2GB-4GB) or too full of external sd card, ord sd card, or internal memory, etc. (shorly not enough memory
6. RAM!!!!!!, if more then 780mb ....,
7. too many WIDGETS...
8. too long standby
GUYS these are the main reasons, if you have all ok with above list, then you may have problems with OS, then flash and install back, or maybe HARDWARE PROBLEM (ram,cpu etc.)
GOOD LUCK!!!
Hi Thank you for your advice , I've tried moving all apps to phone from SD an everything's work well no more auto reboot , Thank you

[Q] reading/writing from sd card terrible slows down

I have a stock ROM with windows 6.5, ROM version 1.66.487.2 WWE. I was personalize it to my taste and everytime, everything is working OK for a month or two and then everything goes to hell. Everything slows down just like that. When I try to open some (any) folder from my 8GB SD card with file explorer it took sooooo long. For a minute or two. Some apps (randomly;not specific one) need more than a minute to start.... In a meanwhile, I wasn't install any new app or change anything. I was try to format SD card,but nothing. Everything stays the same. As soon as I reset the phone to the factory settings everything works like a charm. Then I install all the apps that I need,and personalize the phone again,and everything works smoothly for a while,and then same story again. Becasuse of that what I said I think that problem isn't with SD card,'cause I alwas have at least 2GB of free space. In Opera I can open max two tabs. If I open 3 or more it tootaly freezes the phone for a few minutes (I set opera to store cash to the SD card, so I think that there is a read/write problem)
Is there some db or such file that maybe do that to me? I think, maybe there is some file that stores information about SD card (something like MFT on a PC) that needs to be repered? I have no other idea... Anyone had same or similar issue or idea how to solve the problem?
Thx!
p.s. I'm not using some cooked ROM for a few reasons. The phone is SIM locked, I don't want to loose my warranty in case if something goes wrong during flasing new ROM,and I'm quite satisfied with stock rom.

Need Some Help...

I'm in need of help.. I think i just broke my SD Card.
First of all.. Im using W-Stor 16GB SD Card. And ICS Final ROM from kevinlekiller from Xda. And my baseband is XXKPH 2.3.7.
I'll list the stuff I've been doing since yesterday...
-Its chinese new year, so I mostly have my phone idle.... I started using it @ 1PM to check for some SMS, there are no prob at that time
-For the rest of the day, I didnt touch my phone... till 8PM, when I open my phone and read Manga from Mango, I noticed that my phone's a bit laggy... So.. I went to Settings > Applications > Running Services , to terminate some background Activity, But its really laggy that it shows Force Closed Settings. After that my phone rebooted itself. After the reboot, i found that my Memory card is not mounted, so i Removed it and re-insert it. Still Nothing, I checked at Settings > Storage and it shows:
Total Space
Unavailable
Available Space
Unavailabe
And the "Mount SD Card" is displayed in a darker color, which means... cant be clicked.
I then rebooted my phone and tried it again, still.. the same result.
-The next day, I tried plugging it into a Card Reader and the computer cant recognize it. I tried mounting via ADB Shell and still wont work.... then i got back to the phone and rebooted to CWM 5 recovery, and tried to mount /sdcard, still wont work...
Can anyone provide help?
I think your SD is corrupted. Not just corrupted, bricked to the max.
I think there might be a way to recover my files... or at least being able to reformat it

Lmafo lol i forgot to say the solution!
it isnt a problem with your SD card its because you have Link2Sd installed our puny devices cannot handle either a big partition size
or the size of the card, as soon as i deleted link2sd and second partition it fixed....
however i know link2sd is important so the solution and keeping the app is to simply use a smaller SD im using a 2Gig one now (instead of my 8) im sure 4Gig will work but i havent tried it... just make sure your partition isnt to big 800 meg is fine for tonnes of apps (im using 500meg on my 2gig)
The reason why it started acting up is because I'm guessing you now have a custom kernel installed?
Normal stock kernel supports the 8gig
The usual "Xx James xX" only on mobile...
This case my SD dead sd means cheap ==bye new one
Thanks:good:

What ROM are you on?
Did you change anything before this started happening (any setting, etc.)?

Official firmware 5.0.2 V20d , and i don't think i changed some settings exept downloading offline maps to the sd card from MAPS ME app , about 200 MB , and some manga from BULU MANGA app , about 900 MB , that was for the first time , and some day i plugged the phone in to copy some data , and i found nothing but the internal storage , i restarted the phone but nothing changed , i as well flashed it but nothing changed , until the phone read the sd card on its own , although the phone detects the sd card normally in recovery mode ( TWRP 3,... )
