No radio after vibrant recovery rom update - Vibrant General

Hi
I don´t really know what happened, but I was playing around with recovery roms and now the radio does not work (it does not register on network).
After whatever I did (cant really remember any more), my phone when it starts says Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 and it didn´t do that before when it worked.
The phone is a Vibrant, T-mobile branded SGS.
When I go into recovery mode, it says it is ClocworkMod recovery v2.5.1.2.
Also it´s really wierd, since it shows two bars for a couple of seconds when waking it up - and then it shows the icon for no connection.
Any tips on how to fix this?

Well since you do not indicate what rom you are running I would suggest Odin back to stock and start over. Sounds like you might have flashed the wrong rom for your phone since you see the GT-I900. You could try to flash a rom like Nero V3 over your current rom first and see if that helps. If you do and still have issues I would still suggest Odin to stock and start fresh.

so wierd
changing to Nero worked.
And I tried like 4 ROM-s and they didn't work (and I have been flashing roms for about 2 years now).
thanks! But I feel like a total noob now ha ha

suddenly occuring start up problem

hey guys, just wanted to ask if somebody has experienced something similar..
i had jacxhero running on my 32a without problems. tonight i had the phone on the charger, and in the morning it turns off everytime after the first splash screen. i can access the bootloader mode etc normally, just loaded cyans rom and it works. but...why this sudden inusability? i havent added any program or changed settings for the last 2 days or something...
I had the same problem but with a different ROM. It was the TIM ROM which can be found in the Sapphire Android Developement section here at Xda-Dev. I'm not quite sure if it's a nandroid backup or if it's an Update.zip, but as I had it installed it seemed to be the exact same ROM my device has been shipped with and it read the same numbers in the About-System dialog thingie and so on, it was like if it was the shipping ROM.
Always after about a day of usage or so it suddenly froze though, then the device reset itself and then endlessly looped at the bootscreen. Very annoying. It didnt happen with any other ROM since then...
Mineee..
That's weird..
But, you had any data connection?.. maybe it tried to update something!
Mine started rebooting after entering on suspend mode(not on the splash screen)! The program settings from the overclock just was pulled after I run out of battery (with the "forced" reboot) and started making conflict with the specs of the myhero rom.
Whats the developmental aspect of this thread??
None.........so please post in General.
Warning given.
seems like i got more problems since this "crash"
after reflashing to cyan after this startup error and then reflashing jacheroski 1.4, im able to load hero roms like jacheroski 1.4 on my magic and they work fine, but im not able anymore to load any roms without hero kernel it seems..
i tried with several roms like different versions (working before versions!!) of cyanmod, hofo,..they all loop at the last splash screen or stay black when it should come to the actual os(one step after the last splash).
am i "doomed" to stick to hero roms forever?^^
im using eng spl .2005...should i try to reflash something? or have you guys got any other ideas?

[Q] ROMs work great, except...?

Hey all, been poking around the forums and trying out various WM and Android ROMS and they all seem to work beautifully, kudos to the devs.
I seem to be running into a bit of a problem though.
My phone is an MP6900 (Vogue 100) from Bell. And while the roms work great, the second my phone goes into standby mode (when not attached to my comp) the phone resets.
I have tried four different roms, two android and two WM and the problem persists.
Also hard resets, battery removal etc etc to no avail.
I also tried to roll back the radio as that got updated when I went to my stock rom previously.
And to boot I can't seem to flash back to the stock ROM anymore, while I was able to even just yesterday. I get Error 262, for whatever reason.
I was wondering if anyone else has run into this issue and could point me in the right direction.
And I did a search on the forum (pre-registration) but couldn't find anything, sorry if this has been brought up before.
Again, great work on all of the ROMs! I had no idea phones had come this far. (Sad to say but true lol)

Sounds like a dying battery to me.
It worked fine in the original Windows though so that's why I am a bit baffled.
what happens if you put your device in bootloader and try to flash to stock? Error 262 is a connection error. basically happens whenever some event interrupts the flashing process (a dead battery will cause this). If you haven't yet, try to flash to stock via the method in this post (bootloader and then flash)
Tried that, didn't work. Just gets to 31% and pops 262 no matter how I try to do it.
The odd thing is though that I can flash any other ROM just fine.
Would reformatting the SD card work?
Figured it out. I used the 0.41 ROM to unlock the phone which was causing the issues. I reflashed with the 2.3.1 and everything works fine.

0.41 was reportedly having tons of issues, you should have started from there
Glad you got it working.

Problem with friends Galaxy S

Hi.
My friend got her Galaxy no more than two weeks ago, and I installed the newest Darky ROM (10.1) on her phone, since it has been working fine on my own Galaxy S.
The problem is that her phone just stopped working... just like that.
She thought the battery was drained, so she charged it, and when booting it up it would remain in the samsung logo (boot screen).
Well I put it into recovery and formatted it into factory settings and thought it would be fine. Well it kinda worked: it started up to the setup wizard, choose language, insert SIM card etc. and finally when clicked the complete button, the screen stayed black and few seconds later a message came saying that there has been an error with the android setup configuration.
This is exactly the same phone as I have and mine is working perfectly fine. Dont understand why this phone is acting up.
Will re-flashing it with the same Darky ROM fix this?? The phone has got warranty, but I dont think they'll accept it anymore cause of the custom ROM I put in.
I also have a video of this, but since they assume I'm a spammer, I cannot insert any links for now.
EDIT: Problem solved --> reflashed with Darky's ROM, now working fine. Thank you both slaphead20 & MasterJam882
you can try reflash...or darkys ressurection...or ezbase rom
Just flash an official rom from www.samfirmware.com.
If u still have bugs and errors u know it's a faulty phone and u can send it to samsung without the fear that they wont accept because its an official ROM every user gets over KIES.

Problems with 3g and ROMs

So when I first rooted my phone I put Fresh on there. I installed the ROM and the 2 radio files. I then got the 3d and gave the evo to my gf, but fresh was very slow for me so I installed the CM7 ROM.
CM7 was very buggy for her, especially since she was new to Android I decided Sprint Lover's ROM on there and flashed a newer update on it since.
The problem is that she has been having problems with 3g. She has so many problems and errors with 3g data. It shows that she has 3g, but she gets errors when she tries to access the internet.
My question is, how can I get it back to stock or a nice rooted stock rom to try and fix this problem? Do I just flash a stock rom? I'm guessing the fresh radio's might be messing something up. If there is a simple solution to this without having to do a full erase I'm sure she prefers that, being that we've fully erased her phone like 4 times already, lol.
Thanks guys.
Get the Sprint Lovers all-in-one package from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=830153
It's flashed through hboot (it's a PC36IMG.zip) and will flash not just the rom but also the radios. This will wipe everything.
Alternately you can go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485 and get just the latest radios and flash those. Flashing this will not wipe everything.
If the problem is with the radios then that should fix it. If it doesn't, then it's likely that the issue lies somewhere else.
thanks, just installed the new radio's. Will see how it works.
I would definitely just get the app mybackup root and back everything up apps/data , sms etc.. Then just restore everything after you flash a new ROM.
Then just do a fresh install of what ever ROM you want then test out different radios till you find the best ones that work for you I'm on old radios because the newer ones didn't work great for me not all evos work the same .
I hope that helps you out some.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I got simalar problem like u.
I installed new radios, try different roms like MIUI, CM6, CM7, Miks, Minn, OMJ's, etc...... finally I go back to stock rom but still got the same problem.
I almost crazyy
the phone never got 3G signal, it only works 1G no matter what I did.
I've reserched couple days but looks like nobody got my problem.
now I fixed my problem btw... well I'm not sure this thing works to u or not
anyway try it if u still got 3G problem.
*I don't even remember where this posted originally,,, somewhere this forum or not,,
huge thanks to original author btw
download 'MSL reader' at market n get the numbers. it's 6 digits.
go to your phone and type ##3282#
tap 'edit mode'
type that 6 digits from MSL reader
tap 'data profile'
open menu n tap 'restore'
then the phone will be reboot.
when booting is done, your phone will start resistering to network.
after that, if something popup n ask update (mayb PRL update), 'cancel' it.
mine works perfectly now.
hope this work to u.
ok thanks, i'll try it out. I do get "3g" at the top though, but always get an error while trying to retrieve data.
Also, what files in the SD card are necessary? Is there a list? I think there are so many junk files in there taking up space, I don't know whats necessary and whats not.
Please help slow EVO 4G after flashing Sprint Lovers All In One
Obvious Noob here.
having issues with my Evo 4G after flashing Sprint Lovers All in one
phone seemed very fast immediatly after flashing SL but since then has become just overall slow.
in fact, i'm downloading an update to ROM Manager right now (a 2.27MB file) and it's taken literally 20 minutes to get to 75%. it's painful!
when i go in to manage applications...says "computing" on space, data and cache etc.
before i flashed SL all in one i ran factory reset 3x in a row prior to flashing - i did NOT re-format my SD card but had it removed (after unmounting).
Should i try to wipe and re-flash or just go to CM7? Are there any things i can try before re-flashing or moving to another rom? Please help..
thank you OB1B

Freezes and reboots

There is a problem. Phone spontaneously freezes and reboots .. The last hope for your forum .. Immediately apologize for my English. I use google translator.
The phone was in the store with 74 CU firmware. Put Root, Russian patch cmw. Everything was fine, but the phone did not work a day, and they almost never used, and the use of the network in the first place. I was advised to calibrate the battery, and the program defy baseband. I'm not used the phone. A few days later there were complaints that the phone periodically freezes and goes to reboot ... Only helps the removal of the battery ... When I received it a few days, it was impossible to use it. In any action it hangs. That is, I press the menu, configuration vayfay and everything freezes. I tried to flash the firmware 139. redlayt through 3.9. In airplane mode the phone is not hung up about .. So I thought that the case in GSM module .. But he, too, hung .. In the end, I installed CyanogenMod 7. Phone is better, but sometimes it still hangs. And it is not logical and unexpected. Working half a day. Then suddenly you come into a notebook and all ... crashed. In the case of market crashes.
I tried to change the CPU frequency. voltage. I tried to dump the entire cache and flash again .. does not help. It is your last hope. Perhaps this marriage. Help please.
full sbf
2.3.6 uk 188 defy full sbf wifi does not work properly the signal drops or reboot motorola closed bootloader s*ck
Anyone can help me? =(
have to send back this phone to CU =(((( so bad
I'm in uk with a second hand defy from eBay. Was just about to start a new thread detailing my woes. I've tried flashing several SBFs with no joy. Lots of fcs and reboots sometimes frequent sometes and hour apart. Seems to be mainly whilst using gps even happens when in flight mode.
Could it be incompatible radios? I would have though I would have problems with wifi or signal but I do not.
I've flashed the stock uk orange 2.2 rom and also tried the stock 2.3.4 sbf.
My next port of call was going to be cyanogen mod, however I am unable to install as I can find no way to instal a custom recovery. I am able to atchive root using super one click. However this OS where the success ends.
If someone could indicate a fool proof way of instantly CWM and CM I believe this rom will be my last hope, although ready the first post in this thread makes me think otherwise :-(
Your thought are welcome
Cheers
