Hi There thismorning I flashed my i5800 that I purchased from Carphone Warehouse with the I5800XWJPF 2.2 firmware from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063940 using ODIN.
The first time I tried it all seemed to be successful, and I then proceeded to root it with SuperOneClick and began restoring my phone using titanium. Then halfway through it crashed, and with no input from me my phone rebooted. It then got stuck on the I5800 boot screen. I finally managed to get it to work be re-flashing the JPF firmware. I Then factory reset the phone (forgot to last time). Now I have finally managed to restore to my phone to how it was.. ish.
When I reboot the phone it take forever to run the Media Scanner and no widgets other that the Google search load up. Also icons are missing. Aswell as thos issues the phone runs slower than it did, and crashes often. I have fired up angry birds and it was just a juttering mess. Based on all this I decided to revert back to 2.1.. and oh oh.. can't find my firmware.
My initial firmwares were:
PDA: I5800XXJG7
Phone: I5800XXJG3
CSC:I5800XXJG5
It was rooted using z4 root and had live wallpapers enabled.
Help!
What can i do to fix this?

Okay, it seems to have now settled down after several reboots, but it seems to loose around 30% of the home screen icons upon reboot. Is this normal? And does it happen on the JPM firmware that was suggested above?

No it is not normal. Do a factory reset, flash any 2.1 rom from www.samfirmware.com and then JPM.

I've got XWJPF and no problems. It runs very smooth. Something else is wrong.
Try flashing it to the earliest stock version of 2.1 that works, do a factory reset, then using Samsung kies, update it to the latest version available on there. Then try and reflash your choice of 2.2 rom. I had similar trouble with mine when I first started. I would recommend flashing CWM recovery as well, the samsung recovery is crap. XXJPQ seems to be available now and is getting some good reviews, fast and stable like JPF, but more up to date. Also try using SuperOneClick to root, has the best results to my knowledge. Some roms take a while to load all the app icons on boot, depending on the amount of apps you have it can sometimes take a little bit. I've found letting the phone go idle for a minute can get rid of the loadup lag. The ram gets topped out easily on the G3 if you have lots of apps that load at startup, which will severely slow the phone down.
Hope this helps!
More Problems
Okay, Now after a few restarts and crossing my fingers the icon thing has started to work, aswell as everything else clearing up. But now the app sizes are very small according to application manager, (angry birds - 2.2mb) and many third party apps reading 0bytes. Another thing is that Bluetooth refuses to work. It vibrates once when enabled, then another 3 times in quick succession and then the force close dialog appears. After clicking force close the box disappears and the phone responds again. I then manage to pai with a device but when I went to send a file, the dialog box and the vibrates appeared again and it refused to send. Any ways to fix?

Factory reset->reflash->factory reset.
Keep back ups!
All that you say is abnormal.
About your disappearing icons:
Are you using the (stock) TouchWiz launcher? If so, that has a (known) bug on 2.2 that all links to apps which were moved to sd card disappear if you unmount the card (which includes reboot). Are the apps that disappear on the sd card?
Reflash
Okay, to start with I will try the factory reset, flash, factory reset that was suggested. And by the way the disappearing apps were not on the sd card... Strange.. If this failds i will do as suggested by flashing to the earliest version, the update via Kies. I was trying to avoid this because of internet allowance..
Thanks for all the replies by the way

Rooting and restoring.. will post results in a few minutes time!
I'm halfway through restoring my settings via Titanium, and I keep getting the single vibrate, roughly 10 second delay, than a very fast triple vibrate, exactly the same as it did just before bluetooth crashed... Is something else wrong?
Okay, I've restored rooted and reflashed it and... ... still the same..
Titanium
Is it possible that this is caused by me restoring my phone settings from 2.1 to 2.2 through titanium?
If you need the original firmware to return it to stock pm me and ill upload it somewhere for you
I have just sent a bluetooth file! After another flash and wipe.. but havent restored or rooted. Don't think I will bother really. I now have a working phone! Thank you!
You must restore only apps. Restoring system configurations and apps data will cause problems. If I'm wrong correct me.

Hello
I'm an Android User in Viet Nam
I got my R800x last month. I follow this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1312859 to root and it works like a charm.
Yesterday, i found many apps randomly force close, I rebooted my phone but after reboot, my phone stucked in Android Logo.I reinstalled the stock rom by SEUS but nothing changed.
Any suggestion, I think, maybe there's a problem with the sdcard, or my personal data is corrupt but I don't know how to do to fix this.
Does anyone knowwwwwwwwww ?
Factory reset is always a good first choice.

After rooting via DeLV i did a factory reset today. Now it boot loops or sometimes it does manage to boot but then The setup wizard FC's and/or android.something pops up and it reboots and starts all over. So now i'm forced to flash stock via ODIN. has this happened to anyone.
I may be mistaken. But if you uninstalled apps and then did a reset it won't reinstall them. So whatever your phones is trying to do is probably an app u pulled. I don't think doing a factory reset with a rooted phone is a good idea.

Hmm this is interesting.
Hmm this is interesting. only because i have been rooting safestraping, CMWing etc different phones and that has never occurred for me before. a factory reset on a stock... even custom ROM, rooted or not. has always fixed or changed things back to a completely usable mode.
try rerooting/reinstall rom.. that usually helps me.
I recently had some issues with my GPS so I used Odin to go back to stock firmware, everything was still ok after this and my GPS was back to working order. Then I used CF auto root to root my device again/use TWRP recovery. Then I flashed the latest PAC nightly and gapps with seemingly no problems. The phone worked fine for 2-3 days until one day when it was in my pocket I got a warning saying something along the likes of "SIM card has been removed. Reboot required." Rebooting would make the sim come back online momentarily until it would randomly come back up. There didn't seem to be any correlation with any new apps I had installed or things I did on my phone to cause this error. I thought perhaps it was the ROM so I tried reflashing (complete with factory wipe) and the problem still happened. I also tried wiping factory->system->cache&dalvik before reflashing..again it worked but only briefly. I tried going back to stock but it still happens. Right now I'm running task650s aokp and it still comes up..the sim works in other phones no problem. Any ideas on what might be going on/how to fix this issue?

Hey guys, let me start off by telling you I was running stock 12b rooted with the 1.5 Furnace kernel. Been running that for 2 weeks solid, no problems. I added 2 Xposed modules last night, swiftkey something and the one to remove the "full battery notification". I rebooted last after enabling them and the phone was fine. Charged phone last night, took it off charger (working fine) and decided to reboot it. Big mistake! It just bootlooped. It would start for 10 seconds, no wifi no data and then restart. I honestly did nothing......
I got into recovery and tried to restore my nandroid backup but same issue. Right now I am flashing 12b from the LG Flash Tool. Will that fix it? Is there another way?
Thanks for all your expertise
Tried to use the LG Flash Tool and it didn't work. Anyone got any ideas how to get my phone to stay working? It boots, for 10 seconds then reboots
If you think it's something to do with xposed why not flash the xposed disabler zip in recovery? Also have you tried a simple wipe of cache and dalvik?

I finally got the Flash tool to work and got 11a loaded on. So now I am fully stock and unrooted. But, the phone keeps rebooting. Doesn't make any sense. Anyone have any ideas?

I have a similar problem when restart the phone gets in bootloop. when the phone is operating normally burst without rebooting or any other problems. I'm all factory on it's still 802 10b and does not offer me the option to update the phone. I think it's a software error I have a warranty but I can not wait 30 days to fix my phone
I hope you understand this is a google translate

Any luck fixing this? I Have the exact same issue with my ls980(Sprint Variant). I've flashed multiple roms, kernels, and radios with no luck. Used LG Flash tool and it always fails at 94%( when it reboots the phone). However, my phone does say unrooted afterwards. I've also tried wiping all data/ factory reset. No luck.... The phone comes on and doesn't recognize any touch for a long time. Finally, it unlocks, and reboots minutes later. No apps or widgets work. The phone only stays on for so long because I turned on the stay always awake option in developer options. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Unfortunately, I did not find a solution. Amazingly, the only rom that would load was Madallus so that is what I am running. You could try that and see if it will load.
