is that wipe cache partition? the second method didnt work. turned phone off and it auto turned on

Now, I know this seems like a stupid question, have you got the phone plugged in to either a pc or external power?
I have a few phones that restart when plugged in to a power source. Might be a feature of the rom you are using.
Just a thought...

nope its disconnected from pc and ex power

still doesnt work?

HELP

take aut battery wait 10sec go dawnload mod and flash again stock rom

yes.
depend on you. if you want to stick with stock, then you gonna need to find stock kernel other than this one.
if you ok with custom kernel, just flash cf-root kernel, then use triangle to reset binary count, then install mobile odin to flash speedmod kernel.
or
if you ok to break your warranty, just go for cf-root kernel, then flash speedmod kernel.
or
just flash speedmod kernel..

You can try to fix permissions:
Boot into recovery and go to Advanced->Fix permissions. Then reboot the phone and see if it's fixed.
If not, try to re-install the rom with a full wipe (system, data, cache and dalvik).
Remember to backup before if needed...
i've tried to wipe data, cache, dalvik, and reinstall the rom. The black screen still there. I'm going to try to fix permissions and see if it can helps.
fixed permission. the black screen still there. when i tried to make phone call, it actually connected and the other phone rings, i can hear dialing sound from my phone but the screen only display a black screen and then reboot itself. please help

i think the problem's not from the hardware, because my dialer is fine when i'm using GB ROM. I tried CM9 and have the same problem. I think the problem is with ICS ROM, but i don't understand why others don't have this problem but mine does. I think i'll stick to my GB ROM for a while until i find the solution for this problem.
I had this problem. U have two options search for either a new dialer from another ice based rom or reflash from after full wipe wipe again fix permission bare in mind its a leak and its themed.
I like this rom. First one with most fix and surprisingly stable.
I think in 7.4 its fixed anyway....

i'm so confused. I've tried to replace the phone app from another ics based rom, reflashing and full wipe many times, but the problem is still there. I tried to google it, and i found similiar problem caused by proximity issue. After i checked my sensors with *#0*#. the proximity sensor only shows null. I think there's a problem with my proximity sensor. Maybe i'll take it to service center.
Take it to a service centre but you have no warranty if you are rooted or using ICS beta test rom .

i need to reflash it with stock rom and reset the binary counter using usb jig right?
Yes, that's what you need to do.
Be aware that you can reset the binary count ONLY with the old bootloader.
So if the jig doesn't work, you need to flash the old bootloader.
That you can do by flashing a stock rom via Odin, or just flash the bootloader (I'll try to find the thread with the bootloader files).
Edit: you can get the bootloader from here:

Freezing on Me At All Times

Pretty much copy and paste, but I have updated it with latest info.
geokilla said:
So this is weird... In four days, the ROM or phone has froze on me about half a dozen times now. The first time when I was setting it up by as I had just done a flash of the ROM. While setting it up, the phone decided to suddenly slow down all of a sudden to a crawl, up to the point where everything started to get washed out and freeze on me. Force restart by holding Volume Up + Power was the only solution to fix it. Just now, my sister had it connected to her computer and was transferring music over into the internal SD when suddenly, the same thing happened. Again, only solution was to force restart. Anyone have this happen to them before? Everything is completely stock except that we're on Dorimanx 5.3 kernel. Then the other times, it would either slow down and freeze in the CWM Recovery Menu, or when she is texting, playing games, etc. There aren't that many apps installed at all. Reflash of kernel doesn't solve the problem.

Could it be that I need to flash the phone with official ICS + bootloader + PIT? I jumped straight from stock Gingerbread to custom ICS.

try doing a wipe data/factory reset as that is normally a fix to these kind of problems. Also clear cache and dalvik and that should fix the problem!

Do not use the .pit file unless you understand 100%sure about what you are doing. That's probably the easiest way to bork your device.
Edit: try flashing a different kernel. Try dark knight or fluxi. I think it would solve your issues

I would get an official rom, and flash it with odin, (no repartition is required) then install your fav. custom rom

I can't wipe data/factory reset in CWM for some reason when I first tried to install the custom ROM. Never tried again... I wonder if it's because my I9100 is brickable.
I have cleared cache and dalvik cache but no luck. It even slowed down and froze in CWM Recovery.

I know what I'm doing. Flashed with PIT many times before on my Captivate. Haven't tried PIT on her I9100 though. I haven't broken my phone with PIT yet, even though there's quite a few PITs out there lol.
I've read of others running the same combo as me, but they're fine so I wonder what else could cause this...

The ICS ROM from the Q&A Sticky should work right? Her I9100 is brickable so.... Gotta be careful.

format cache/data/system , then make all wipes , then put your phone in download mode , flash a stock ROM from samfirmware.com , then root your phone !
Running the latest Dorimanx 5.5 kernel and still getting the same problem. In fact, I noticed that if you set it to Performance under Kernel Tweaks in Recovery, the problem is more apparent. Setting it to default causes the issue too.

Yes i did 10 times wipe, i tryd different custom roms, and different stock roms, with odin and with cwm..
Now what i found out is that it only reboots when the screen is off so in lockscreen. if i hold the phone awake it wont reboot,
is there an tool to clean the whole system up? like intitd that i cant found in any way..
How could i delete all the mods that came from other roms? i cant find the initd folder...
My phone is on stock 4.1.1 siyah kernel, rooted, busybox, cwm recovery 6.0.1.2, have root explorer working.
I did wipe/factory reset, dalvik, fix permission, wipe batt stats, wipe cach flashing kernel/rom official and non official
and my phone keeps rebooting when the screen go's off auto or if i pres the power button.
Did you changed CPU voltage or clock settings earlier?
BTW you can remove files with ADB.
1) Boot into recovery
2) Connect USB
3) open ADB shell - 'adb shell'
4) navigate to the folder - 'cd /system/etc/'
5) Remove the files - 'rm -r init.d'
6) exit and reboot phone
Yes i did that early i try 1800 max in stweaks on siyahkernel and then the phone rebooted, dont know exactly what happend then but everything was fine after that... i also used other roms and kernels...
But thanks for your advice i will try to do this, i am new to ADB so i am going to figure that out right now.
is it possible to do that with cwm recovery on it?
That's what the problem is. I did it to my phone once. I overcolocked and undervolt.
Everything worked fine for few mins. But when I rebooted my phone, it went to lock screen and hang for few secs and then reboot again.
Never go to 1800 but a max of 1600. mine max is 1500 now.
Let me gather more info for you.

Had same thing happen to me, my fix, 1st save everything to pc from sdcard and titanium backup if you can. Flash stock rom and then put (i use omega v34) on external sdcard. Flash touch recovery. Wipe cache and dalvik, fact reset then go to usb mount and format everything (except external card obviously) then flash omega rom.

I just try the exact method you say just to be sure but the same problem remains, i wiped everything that i could but it remains the phone reboots when the screen is off or it dont reboot but it freezes when the screen is off.
I dont think of hardware related problem because when i keep the screen awake i can do whatever i want without problem....

[Q] Fully restore a rooted S3

I know the answer is here somewhere but I really need someone to guide me...
I bought a Galaxy S3 yesterday and it´s not my first. It came with WanamLite. I know that WanamLite is a good ROM but the phone was laggy as syrup... Last night I flashed the latest leaked 4.2.2 Samsung firmware but I really feel it´s still laggy... as soon as I do two different things in ot it lags like he**.
Now I wanna try to restore EVERYTHING to it´s factory state... kernel, firmware... EVERYTHING! I want to be able to update this phone the usual way... either KIES or OTA. As of now I just get a message that the firmware has been changed and that the phone is not supported.
So... can someone please give me directions to fully restore the phone to it´s original state?
Thanx guys!
first go to recovery and do a wipe data/factory reset and cache and on advanced wipe dalvik cache then go to mounts and storage and format everything there
then go to download mode and flash a stock Rom
So if I do that the custom recovery, root and Everything else will be as "out of the box"?
Isnt it best to use ODIN to flash Stock ROM?
Usually Stock Rom has stock recovery in it.
So if u flash with a stock rom
Then everything will be back to normal.
It is optional to use Triangle Away.
Use it only if u need to rest ur binary count

yes everything will be deleted and back to stock but your binary counter will not be back to 0 for that you will need triangle away for waranty purposes which is useless since you bought your phone second hand
yes odin is the best choice but you need to go to download mode so odin can idintify your phone you can't flash a Rom on home screen LOL
Run triangle away

Think its the easiest and best way to get back to stock..
-) Check out the latest Firmware for your region on sammobile.com,
-) backup your data / SMS etc if you would,
-) reset the counter with triangle away,
-) flash the downloaded Firmware with Odin and last do a factory reset
Yeah. Just check the flash counter in download mode first. Bootloaders since 4.1.1 have been increasing back to 1 after reboot so you need to be on a stock recovery and kernel to reset without going back to 1 .
Or you have to prevent triangle away from rebooting after the reset. Pull the battery and go straight to download mode

Everything Went fine... counter restored, and Stock flashed.
First I was worried that the phone had gotten the "Sudden Death" due to the constant freezing... AND it has the stupid chip that causes the darn thing... but after a reset of the phone it works just fine!

[Q] Stuck in CWM! Samsung Galaxy GT-i9100

Hi,
I really need help!
I'm stuck in CWM after trying to install cm11 on my Samsung galaxy s2 GT-i9100
I tried factory resetting and other things but it still goes to CWM after rebooting.
Please help me cause i dont know what to do anymore and i would really appreciate it if someone could help me.

Yes i tried factory reset in recovery. i wanted android 4.4 kitkat on my phone and i googled and searched how to do it.
So i followed these steps from this website:galaxys2root.com (srry but i can't place any links cause im new)
First i needed to root my phone so i did that following these steps: galaxys2root.com and when it was done i got CWM Recovery v6.0.2.7 and it was good so far but i also wanted to clear my usb storage and after all that i formatted my usb storage. So now i was ready to put android 4.4 on my phone but they recommended to have a higher version of the CWM recovery by installing cm11: galaxys2root.com
I tried to install CM11 on my phone in recovery mode and it said: 'installation aborted' so i thought, ok maybe it just doesn't work and i rebooted and i was in CWM again. I rebooted a couple of times but it was stuck in CWM. I tried factory reset after i was stuck in CWM but it didn't help.
just flash phill or siyah kernel with odin and then flash pound rom or other 4.4 rom you prpbably have ome with bad recovery

So did you try and install on that recovery or did you update before the flash? You need to update to latest cwm recovery before you flash cm11 unofficial.

No you should install cwm latest first. As for it won't boot any more... try pulling the battery out and then hold download combo keys down and put the battery bk in. May boot you're phone and defo worth a try.
sorry for late response but yeah i forgot that in these 4.4 roms that was disabled if i have time i wil check or i can change it that it wil work on every recovery

Don't know but i've had this problem before when my phone worked fine.
After half a day i tried to charge it and when i put the micro-usb in it i saw the battery logo for 1 sec and it disappeared.
after a day i tried to charge it again and it worked.
so i tried to charge it an hour ago and i saw the battery logo for a sec so it will maybe boot again.
I think something is wrong with my battery i also wanted to replace the battery cause it runs out fast.
Oh and what do i do after it boots? Go in download mode and flash something with odin?

Could well be a bad battery. Best bet is take it to a shop and test a battery but saying that if it runs out of charge quickly then battery will be on its way out. Yes flash stock with Odin then reroot ect ect. When you test the battery don't buy it right away just incase you end up wasting money on a dead phone. Check and make sure it works first then buy it.

haha that was exactly what i was planning on to do. btw there are a lot of different stock kernels which one do i need to flash?
For stock kernel with root and cwm you can't really beat Philz. Get the zip and put it on ext SD and flash it as the update in stock recovery 3e.

You can use Odin to flash this. You can get either zip or tar file of this kernel.
I am new on i9100 but I think that phillz and siyah kernel is designed for 4.1 not 4.4 android.
My best advice is to flash a stock rom and after you have the certitude that all are ok you can make an efs backup and then follow an XDA instructions to flash a 4.4 ROM. Read all posts from the thread of the rom that you what to install.
My think is that you need a full battery to flash. A new battery is not relevant in your case because the new battery can be empty and it will not charge during the kernel problem.
