Upgrading Galaxy I5800 to Froyo - Phoning gives Black screen - Galaxy 3 General

Hello,
I just upgraded my galaxy 3 I5800 to froyo but since that time I keep getting errors with calls. That means, whenever I call someone or I get called I´m getting a black screen which makes it unpossible for me to do anything like ending the call or stuff like that. While I keep hearing the caller and the caller keeps hearing me I am unable to do then anything on the phone...
Does anyone know the reason for that or how to fix it?
I mean else I would need to downgrade again to eclair, allthough I would love to stay with froyo for imho it seems way smoother than eclair...

its the sensor .. it happens to me to sometimes when i get the phone from my ear to FAST. it stays in blackscreen as it is screenoff, right?

yes exactly it stays as if there was as if it was screenoff... but happens as well if I don´t take it to my ear...
do you know how to fix it?

Try cleaning the proximity censor with a cloth or piece of paper. Or use your finger.
By that I mean those two black dots on top of the screen.

I am afreaid it´s not the sensor...cleaned it which wouldn´t help.
Also this one happens no matter wether I take the mobile to my ear or not... What I noticed what doesn´t work totally properly as well (allthough that would be no big prob to me) is the contacts app -> whenever I start contacts I cannot go back using the back-button on bottom right, but need to leave it by clicking the home button.... I guess that could be outta the same reason...
Now I wonder would it possible somehow to use froyo and only upload like the phoning app and contacts app from eclair?

I have same problem with the calling back sound and back button on contact before
And i just simply flash my phone and use custom ROM and the problem will solved
I used Apocalypse 1.3 OC right now &
Kyrllios ROM is really good stuff

Tried kyrilios ROM but didn´t help either.... found a bypass now allthough it´s not really too satisfying... obviously it does have something to do with proximity sensor as told here... but thing is no matter how clean it is doesn´t have any effect on the problem, but whenever the phone is giving a blackscreen, wipeing with a finger over the proximity sensor is resulting in the blackscreen being taken away and regular phone screen being shown... strange that is since it doesn´t happen in eclair...

yeah i think you can do that using root explorer in R/W mode, you can delete an apk and add another .. but be careful with the system files cause you can brick your phone if you dont know what your are doing.
my advice is , try a new version of froyo .. which rom you are on right now?

currently on JPM, but tried all older versions as well -> same bug for all 2.2, while never had that bug on 2.1.... when risking to brick my mobile I guess I won´t give it a try, since I don´t know jack really about mobiles and modding and stuff...

i didn't wanted to start a new thread for asking a little thing.. so i m asking this noob question in this thread.....
recently i upgraded my i5801 to froyo officially via kies. bt beleive me that it's the worst update ever provided by samsung....
1.sound quality is worse.
2.swype not working.
and many more bugs...
so i just want to switch back to eclair... bt i dont know how to do it coz i didn't made a backup before upgrading....
so can i switch back to eclair officially without losing warranty...? how to do it..?
>>> after upgrading to froyo i rooted my phone to enable live wallpapers.. would it affect somehow...?

System Crash (XDA neo)

Hello,
i have since a few days a big problem with my XDA neo...
It sometimes crashes without me doing something and the strange thing is, the screen fades slowly into white, like it doenst get a signal form the xda anymore...
EDIT:
Iforgot to say sometimes thexda doenst fade to white,sometimesit justfreezes...i also performed a hard reset on it, so i think it isnt a software error
it happens the most time when i sync the PPC or when im on the internet using the wlan adapter...and also often without me doint anything with it...so can someone of you tell me why this happen or have i send it back to o2 (which wont be very likely to me, because i need the PPC)...
Thank you for every answer and for every little method of resolution
(And sorry for my crappy english im german...)
If you want you can also contact me via ICQ (165839208) or Email ([email protected]) (but if i know what the problem is ill post it here so everybody can look it up)
THANK YOU
seems overclocking....
if u r not using official rom....
it may be occurs.
or if u r using any overclocking program [hack master / xcpuscaler] it always happens
i think flash your rom and reload official rom.....
please reply.....
Hello,
im running the official rom and im a little afraid falshing it, because the system also crashes some time at the boot screen (IPL/SPL/GSM/OS and stuff) and if it crashes while i flash, i can put it in the trash, because i dont think O2 will take it back when its a failflash.
But if i do it, which rom have i to take from the FTP server?
Greetz
i have the same Problem

Phone keep restarting by itself ??

Ok so my hero keep turning off by itself. This is not the first time it happen, it'll be on then it will just turn off by itself. Even worse sometimes the led light will be flashing for a new message and when I press the menu button to unlock it, it restart automatically. It mostly restarts itself when the screen is dark and i always press menu to bring up the light or to unlock it. Is this mean my phone is now defective ? I mean this happened before on some other 2.1 ROM too so idk what it is. Can someone tell me how to fix this????? I've tried almost all 2.1 Roms Aloysius, DC 2.07.2, Trevs Damage, ZenHero , RegawMod (themed) and Fresh 2d. the only rom that didnt restart my phone was the Fresh 2d with the very first audio fix by Avalaunchmods but i already erased that out of my computer.
Hmmm, not much to go on. I had experienced a similar issue back on early ROMs, but it was so infrequent I never really cared.
Try a Nandroid Backup and then flash to a 1.5 ROM and see if it continues, if so then yes the phone may be defective.
Also try different 2.1 ROMs here, and let us know if anything changes.
Dude, seriously do you need to have such a big font? Its not necessary....
i didn't catch that, what did you say?
lol mr big font
this happened to me last night, i wasnt even touching the phone and this happened, but its been the only time and ive been using 2.1 roms for a while now...i think this even happened once or twice when i was on stock...
coming from windows mobile, im used to things like this.
This happens on my sisters stock phone frequently I don't really care to look at it though.
Big fonts aren't nice. Stop using them
Try a different ROM. You may even want to revert to stock for awhile, if it keeps rebooting you should return the phone for a non-defective handset.
LOL @ RTessi

My sis's is on stock, and she has the problem
Funny thing is my phone is the only one without problems, and it's the only one that's rooted.
i don't know what we're yelling about loud noises
i got it fixed now, i think, i've had Fresh 2.0d for a few days and this problem is gone. oh and sorry for the big font lol i did this post in class on my phone and i didnt preview or look at what font i was using

When will the Audio Problem be fixed completely

I want to know when will the sound problem be fixed completely? im currently using fresh 1.5 because all of the 2.1 have problems with the sound.. when someone calls i cant hear them and they cant hear me! i cant be resetting my phone everytime this happens. the fix that they have dont work also it might prevent it from happening so often but all my calls are important... does any one know when this will be fixed fully or why is this happening? how to prevent it ? mayb its the cdma settings? Thanks alot
The audio problem for the effected phones will be fixed when official 2.1 comes out.
i found whats causing it.... so who has a nice rom with the older kernel before .29 .. wats the kernel ? lol
The issue is caused by audio drivers in the kernel not resetting. we do not have the source for .29 kernel so there is no fix. we dont know why this effects some people and not others. Since the audio drivers do not reset it does not allow anything to read them. so it continues resetting and resetting and this causes the cpu to be pegged by the constant retry and retry.
Any 1.5 or overclocked 2.1 Rom
The audiofix posted by avalaunch worked briliantly for me. I have not had the issue once since he posted his fix about two weeks ago.
Also just so you know, zens my touch Rom did not have the audio issues for me. Just be sure to reboot after the first boot to completely get everything working.
which fix the audiofx or audiorc?? or u on the newest one for testers? i hate the my touch roms omg lol whats the older kernel version
wait another thing could it be because we didnt update the radio ?? or u guys doubt that 1?
I have had the audio issue with every ROM i had used until i flashed the Dachdroid 2. Ever since i have not had any kind of issues with phone freezing or caller not hearing me when i answer. Its very strange, but i wanted to post to see if any of the Devs can find out the differences between whats in this ROM and all the othersthat would make it work. Again i have had audio issues with all except this one.
What is this Audio problem?
I've run ROMs with both the .29 and hacked up .27 kernels.
Is this a bluetooth audio problem? Or handset audio?
The problem occurs randomly, for me at least. It's an issue I've had as others have that no audio at all comes through after an unknown time. I notice mine is triggered when I get off the phone with someone, I get 'call lost' and then all my audio is gone and have to reboot to get audio back. It affects BT and handset for me.
Iv never had the problem and iv changed my radio quite a few times. I think im on my 4th radio.
Maybe later at night you could flash a 2.1 rom, change to a newer radio and give it a few test to see if it works.
Flipz has alot of radios and I think the stock one on his site.
(IF anyone trys flashing a radio this is really the only way you can brick your phone. DO not flash any radio unless it says CDMA htc hero. All of them are on flipzmode website. You cant go wrong if you get them from him.)
the issue will hopefully be fixed when they release 2.1 officially. and im still looking into the issue a little at a time. 99% of people reported that one of the two updates put together fix it.
the only other cause could be a hawrdware issue. like the moved one resistor on the board and this causes something in the kernel to restart drivers. idk that is a very very very simple thought. but anyways like i said hopefully it get fixed!
Dont know if this is related but its absolutely killing me
Just today the headset icon popped on and wont go away. I cant hear anything when using the phone because its stuck in this mode. I plug in headphones and the voice dialer starts. I can hear through the headphones, but taking them out does nothing.
Anyone have any info on this or if there is anything I can do?
yea thats y im on fresh 1.5 i hate the 2.1 simply because of the audio problem coming from the headset !!! andn darch droid2? does everything work correctly like camera ect ... i hope its not that dam mytouch theme that 1 sucks ill try tonight

yeah...Ive come to the conclusion that 2.1 is just not going to work for me...went back to fresh 1.1 and everything is good. Its funny though, Ive been on 2.1 since all of the work was done and never had a problem until now. Ive been on damn near every 2.1 rom and didnt have an issue. Now all of the sudden the handset icon shows up and I cant hear anything unless I put in headphones. Tried all of the audio fixes and searched the entire net looking for a resolution. Hopefully the official comes soon. I am definitely going to miss 2.1.

That's more than likely a mechanical problem. Take it in to Sprint.

I would think so too, but I went back to fresh 1.1 and its fine...
I'd go back, but then I'm stuck with not being able to receive picture messages. So far I get the audio problem every other day, and it's a simple reboot.

a simple reboot ? a simple headache lol idk about u guys i dont want to have to restart my phone when i just got a call that i couldnt answer !! ..... is there any newer roms with the older kernel?? because i dont understand the whole kernel thing...
This audio loss issue is reason number one why all of the people who say "Who cares when HTC and Sprint release 2.1? We already have it!" are just total idiots.

Repair using PC companion. Maybe a software glitch.
nope still no go didnt work
this never happened with 1.6, theres lot of reports of this happening with 2.1 though
Remove the battery, remove the sim card and clean contacts, remove memory card and clean contacts, wait 5 minutes and put everything back together.
If nothing works, just use your warranty.
I use to get this once awhile..... not so often with the new aosp firmware (mainly cause I haven't been using it the same way I use to.....) but I use to get what you got too. Never able to fix it.
what firmware are you using now? have you got link please?
Same FW everyone is running on. The AOSP 2.1 ROM 007a. Check in the development section
i dont think i have warranty, because i removed the touch module to put a white cover on ect.
now its getting stuck on the sony ericsson and rebooting again
and yes it was doing this crap before i changed housings
i installed rogers 1.6 ( even though im in AUS lol ) and its working fine now.
i wonder if it would be the same on rogers 2.1
Rogers doesn't mess much with the FW so worth a try to update to 2.1.
just tryed, same crap it crashes sometimes on boot and sometimes after 5 mins of use
will just switch off or reboot
i installed that ROM you got using recovery manager
its not where nere as bad as it was before, it only happens about 5 mins into a phone call, i can actually charge my phone, play game ect and it doesnt reboot

call recording problem

Hello guys.. i hope ill post to the right place.
Well here's my problem. I got 2.3.4 ginger JVR on my SGS flashed with odin and a custom kernel, the semaphone 1.50 .
I used to use recording appz like total recall. But since i upgraded to 2.3.4 i cant record because it makes my microphone not to work.
What i mean.. if i install and enable a call record tool ( i tried many from the market ) i am not able to speak with people, because they wont listen to me. But if i turn the speaker on they will listen to me( + record ) and if i turn the speaker again off they will keep on listening to me.
I used these tools with froyo official fmw and they worked ok. So is there any solution except from pressing on the speaker and then off on every call ??
** PS : If other people use such tools , could you tell me if you have the same problem on 2.3.4 in order that i understand if its kernel's problem or its caused of the 2.3.4 JVR.
( I tried wipes etc, then i tried playing with sound settings with voodoo control )
Thanks a lot.. its kinda big post but i hope a solution will be found.

Its works in Froyos' Room but it doesn't works in Gingerbread.
I want it for that reason I still work with froyos' Room
But why? It is so fail that it doesn't work on a newer and much better version. Isn't there any fix or tweak to make it work?

Maybe this is too late, but I have the same problem.
I have had a few Android phones and with my first i9000 I tought that it was because I had dropped it a few times because that program used to work on my other Android phones. Now I used an X10 and wildfire and didn't had this problem but whent back to a new I9000 and the problem started again so this is something with the phone being incompatible with the latest software update.
