Hello! I have been observing for the past few weeks how the accelerometer on my device stopped working after i flashed a jellybean rom. The curious thing is that if i installed any other rom (sense or non-sense ICS or GB) my accelerometer started working perfectly.
So i followed a few recomendations from other users who told me to use Aahk and return to full stock then re-root flash recovery and flash jb rom.
I did that and guess what everything was fine until today when i switched from a sense 4 rom back to jb and the problem with auto rotate was back.
I am not a dev but something in the sense 4 rom is killing the accelerometer for any/all jb roms flashed afterwards ( yes i have wiped everything 3x even with ARHD superwipe script)
And now the good part, i was experimenting today to see how i could get back accelerometer functionality without going through aahk re-stock procedure and i found a way:
1. Download this stock rooted rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382235
2. Put it on your sd card , reboot in recovery , wipe everything except sd card (obviously) and install it
3. Let it boot at least once, go through initial setup, reboot recovery wipe everything, and now you are ready to flash jb with working auto rotate
P.S. to reboot in recovery with stock rooted rom you have more options ( no advanced power menu)
1, From adb : adb reboot recovery
2. Download quick boot from playstore ----> https://play.google.com/store/search?q=quick+boot&c=apps
3. Pull battery out then put it back in keep volume down and power buttons pressed until you enter bootloader from here navigate to recovery and you are done.
I hope i am right. I had but only one dhd to test.
don't work for me :s
have test with this stock rom (full) and super stock rom 3.20 from inspire 4G thread;
i have a DHD.
with hboot 0.85 it work (before have hboot 2.0 from aahk)

Doubt it has to do with the rom you had installed before, but it has to do with the kernel etc. Have not checked the link you posted above but I am certain you have tried the JellyTime Rom and it is true that the accelerometer does not work. However, jellybean is still more than anything still new at best to our device and it will take time for it to be fully stable, taking into the account that HTC never had plans on upgrading us to JellyBean

It has nothing to do with kernel, flash a sense 4 rom and then a jb rom , any jb rom ( paranidandroid for examlpe) and the auto rotate doesn't work and you can change kernels and the auto rotate doesn't work

Just to clarify things... There is a cahce partition in our phones (Im not talking about Dalvik Cache)
The data in this cache partition won't be erased even with a full wipe.
When you install a JB rom, you CAN have conflicts in it ( not all users experince this ... )
So the only way , was to use the RUU, because the process it is using include wiping this cache partition ....
However , the cause of this conflict is still unkown , even if one day , if i rememeber, Synergy pointed out that the problem had to do with the upstream in custom JB roms.

The first time i returned to stock i used aahk and i fully returned to stock ( s-on ) and then i rerooted and flashed recovery but with the help of the aahk devs i realized that i didn't have to go full stock actualy you don't even have to use ruu you just need a stock rooted rom zip to flash in recovery and allow it to run once.
This is easy to do just flash it like any other rom in recovery let it power on and let sense start then reboot recovery and flash jb and you have working accelerometer and auto-rotate

First point, returning to stock doesnt mean you are making your device S-on again
Second point, I did not say that your solution isnt working.. It is just that it did not work for everyone (see my thread)
Third point, Accelerometer is stil working on JB even if your auto rotation doesnt work... The proof ??? you can use manual rotation with an application form the PlayStore( unfortunatly, I forgot its name)
Bingo ! :good::good:
Thank you very much...

The accelerometer in my case didn't work at all on jb roms. I have tried, exactly as you suggested using andro sensor from play store, and my accelerometer was on a gray background and nothing was changing in read values as i tilted the phone. But from what i have heard it is also a radio related issue plus that pesky cache partition.
But i'm sure that the devs will figure a out an easyer way my friend.

Mysteries ... There are still a lot of mysteries
Anyway, the important is that we can use auto rotation again whatever the solution is....
However, I hope too that devs will figure out what is the real culprit even if I see this as not being their priority for now

Hi everybody, i got a nice big problem with Onecosmic's 4.0.3 RC2.
I flash it for the first time some day ago and all works good, yesterday i need to restore as factory by the menu and then..it is witch off!
My smartphone now:
If i plug the device to usb it doesn't do nothing, sometimes the little wheel appears , sometimes no.
If i press the central button appears again.
If touch the back and menu button they switch on.
If i switch on the device appears the logo Galaxy S gt i9000 and the color of picture of boot for 0.01 sec and then switching off, sometimes it reboot endlessly.
And then, i can sent my mobile in Downloading mode (Menu - Vol DWN - PWR) but i can't sent my mobile in the other mode (Menu - Vol UP - PWR).
Please i need help cos i really dont know what i can do
Onestly, is my first big problem with costum mod :s
EDIT: I fix up my phone, i need use Odin for flash stock rom and a .pit file, i think it is a good BUG report for One cosmic's 4.0.3 RC2. I can't post in dev. forum
This is a bootloop not a bug. Way too many people without a clue flashing ICS at the mo.
One moment, i dont like it. I think it is a bug or something becouse i went in setting and the i touch on restore data as factory (oh, i dont know the right translation cos i am italian) and the mobile phone bootlopping.
Its a no wipe rom
So for example you can
wipe
instal rom
use
or
wipe
instal rom
wipe
instal custom kernel
use
and can not
wipe
instal rom
wipe
Im having the same problem as you! I'll keep you posted

Let me know when you have some news I fix up my phone with Odin, flashing a stock rom and original .pit file but, as you can read, i lost ICS. I think i will waiting for a Stable release
This is a good site for troubles
ics.samsung-updates.com/trouble
see:
Phone is in boot loop
can't get to Recovery (I9000)
Put phone in Download mode and use FixRecovery.tar.md5 in Odin as PDA, uncheck auto-reboot option.
After flash reboot to recovery with 3-button-combo and CWM flash proper ICS kernel and reboot
For trouble after follow instructions from HOW TO FLASH section proper for Your device

All you need to do is read the relevant thread or the multiple threads in general and q&a to see a the people that have had the problem and the solution. I've posted the solution at least 5 times already
Finally got my tab back and I am now thinking of flashing a custom from on to it. So I just wanted to know which is the best rom to install on my version P7500 and one that as the least problems. This will be the first time i have done this so how easy is it and what's the best way to do it with out effecting your flash count
I can suggest 2 different ROM´s.
Overcome v2.3.1, all is working, but is Honeycomb 3.2.
Or, when you not need the camera, use ICS 4.03.
(Camera driver is not available at the moment for ICS)
My favorite is AOKP, Version Milestone-4 and update build28.

Here are some hints:
Installation:
Make sure you're on the latest CWM (root your TAB)
MAKE A NANDROID Backup (in CWM)
wipe data/factory reset in recovery
flash ROM
flash Gapps
reboot

When you make a nandroid backup how restore it as last time i tried this when I did the wipe data/factory reset it wiped the phone clean including the back up
[ I bought my tab already rooted and had to restore it to get it fixed]

Your guess is as good as everyone elses. I've seen estimated times pass already, and several say another month and longer.
Seems the only agreement you'll get is either soon or later, to never.

Nandroid make backups in /mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup,
factory reset does nothing there.
I would also suggest overcome 2.3.1 while waiting for ICS release. I actually use the camera :-(. Otherwise I would be using a custom ICS ROM.

How good is overcome 2.3.1 am on the original rom 3.2 and it still feels like it struggles at times
Give the rom a change and flash it, you will see it is awesome,
but the custom ICS roms are also for daily use ready.
The only possibility to determine which rom is better for you,
is to flash it all.
You can not damage your TAB, and with Odin you can anytime back to stock samsung firmware, which were found on sammobile homepage.
Will this effect your flashcount

Samsung has already rolled out ICS for galaxy S II and the ICS for GT 10.1 is supposed to be released soon but soon is such a bad word to use since its always used to evade responsibilities!
Anyhow I am hopefully Samsung will push it out before end of Q2 as promised before but what saddens me is that the next Android Jelly bean is right around the corner yet all the companies are struggling to update their devices to ICS. Android's biggest problem as of right now is fragmentation and Google should look into it seriously!

First of all there is no way to avoid that 'flash count' thing...
Now, there is no need of rooting if u are going to flash a custom rom like ICS (preferably AOSP) or Overcome....coz they come pre-rooted...
1) Grab the latest odin flashable CWM recovery from http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/recovery/cwm5/p4/recovery.tar.md5
2) Flash the above downloaded CWM in the PDA section of Odin. in the Download mode (press the vol down button while turning on the tab...when two icons appear, press the vol up button and again confirm by the vol up)
3) Also Download the required Custom Rom .zip file and copy it to the SD card root of ur Tab..
4) Turn the tab off and while restarting again enter bootloader mode by keeping the vol down key pressed...now use the vol down key to navigate to the left icon nd use the vol up key to confirm...now u'll enter CWM recovery...
5) Use the volume keys to navigate...nd power switch to confirm.
6) Wipe user data...cache nd dalvik cache (in advanced)...
7) Now go to 'install zip from SD card' nd 'choose zip from sd card'
8) Now choose the zip file dat u copied earlier nd confirm...(if u flash ICS then u also hav to Flash Gapps without a reboot in between)
9) After everythng is done reboot your tab...nd ur done...
10) Enjoy....nd Happy Flashing..!!!

Ye i flashed the right version
Now, I dont usually open threads, but I have an issue here. I've searched and read a lot on how to recover the U8800 in case its soft-bricked, but I've tried the reflashing 2.2 method (Fails in about 5 seconds), Linux method (blefish's method, buzzcomp's method could not yield any results. I connected the phone in the bootloader mode (pink screen) to a Linux PC, but it doesnt appear as a new device there.
Then I tried to upgrade to 2.3, it installs fine, automatically enters recovery (formats data, cache etc), reboots a lot of times (bootloop?). So now whenever I on my phone, the Huawei logo just keeps flashing.
I've also tried to replace the files when connected in the pink screen by replacing the boot.img , recovery.img, amss.bin , EMMCBOOT.mbn file, yet it bootloops.
Prior to this, I had downgraded from Aurora to the stock 2.2, which worked fine. Then I replaced the stock recovery with CWM (the correct one, not the U8800 Pro's). I did the usual clearing of cache, data, formatted system, wiped dalvik cache in order for me to upgrade to a new ROM. Everything went downhill from there
UPDATE : I managed to get 2.3 to be installed. But everytime I enable "USB Debugging", upon the next reboot, there will be a lot of apps which closes unexpectedly, like the Huawei Launcher, Google Framework etc etc. I've tried B526 and B528, but everytime I have "USB Debugging" enabled, this happens. It works fine on 2.2 though
UPDATE 2 : After my fresh installation of the official 2.3, I'd changed the launcher to Holo Launcher, but it fails at starting up. If it does, it keep saying that Holo launcher has closed unexpectedly. The only way to fix it is to boot into recovery and wipe data.
Any help?

Hello,
First of all, let me state that I've read much of the FAQ and it is greatly written. However, some of the links are old and not working and I did not understand what I need to do at my stage. Therefore I would really appreciate it if you would kindly direct me to the proper steps and maybe explain some things if I'm stuck along the way. I'm not afraid of learning.
So, I have the following phone which I received from a family member who tried to install something on it but probably did not know what he was doing.
Samsung Galaxy S
MODEL: GT-I9000
SSN:I9000GSMH
- The phone CAN enter the Download state (volume down + home + start) and it shows a yellow Android Icon with a shovel and the word "download" (I think).
- The phone CAN enter the recovery mode (where you can install from zip).
At start, the phone is stuck at loading screen of Samsung and Cyanogen mod.
Unfortunately
-I DO NOT KNOW if the phone is rooted.
-I DO NOT KNOW what is the android/kernal/firmware versions.
So what do I need to know and do in order to:
1. Get the phone back to working order.
2. Root it if so needed.
3. Install the appropriate cyanogen ROM or any other recommended ROM.
a. I want to use the phone for the app XCSOAR. Which is a great flight computer for soaring pilots. Therefore, I don't care much about effects. I do want the phone to be light on battery as possible
(Sometimes for this app to work up to 3-4 hours) and the screen to be bright (so I can see it under the sun).
As mentioned above, I'm willing to learn and would really appreciate your help.

Boot into recovery, do a wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, Download this ROM , place it on SD card or internal storage and flash it in recovery.. (that's latest and best working KitKat ROM with latest security patches), also download Open Gapps ( ARM, 4.4, nano) and flash it right after flashing the ROM. Wipe cache again, and then reboot system, wait for it to boot, that's it.
.
After further reading I managed to recover the phone to the original local ROM (created by the distributer). I was much helped by a post in this forum regarding a "dbdata" error (cannot mount E).
Now I'll try to flash your new ROM onto my phone.
Thank you very much for your reply. I'll update.

I did just what you recommended and it works fine, so thanks!!
However, when it runs XCSOAR (glider pilot free flight computer) the phone gets very hot unlike in the original distributor's ROM.
Do you have suggestion for a different ROM or settings? Or should I revert back to stock samsung GB ROM?
Thanks again,
Rami

You can try reverting back to stock GB. This is an old phone so its not very good for heavier apps. Google or HERE maps won't even work for me on any ROM i tried, it's too slow.

Actually it works. It is a nice and probebly not heavy app since it has a version for older PDA computers.
Anyway, I will try and install a stock ROM from this thread.
Thanks again,
