[Q] Nothing but problems with Darky's Roms - General Questions and Answers

Can someone with a Bell issued Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 tell me if they've had success with any of Darky's latest roms?
When I got my phone 3 weeks ago, I installed 8.1. I had a problem where the phone answer app would crash when I received a phone call.
I upgraded to 9.0.1 when it was released and the phone app crash was solved. However, other apps would often crash, and it seemed slightly buggy. At some point, i rebooted the phone and the boot screen would go for 15s, then freeze momentarily, then resume. This would happen over and over again, indefinitely and the phone would never boot.
This morning, I upgraded to 9.1. However, apps are still crashing. For example, I'm unable to open the Market app. It crashes immediately. This is after I added my google and exchange accounts and successfully received all my email.
Not sure what to do at this point. Does anybody have any ideas?

My gf has a Bell i9000m and is running Darky's 9.01 without any problems.
I would suggest you start from scratch by first unmounting the internal SD and format it. Copy Darky's ROM to it. Then boot to recovery mode and do a full reset in CWM recovery, and re-install from ZIP again.
She came from stock 2.1 JG2 to Doc's V8 and Darky's.
The current Darky is kind of buggy, if you could find the 9.01, that is a better version.

FCs after coming back from GB Leak

I keep getting FCs on soundset and music after I load the rom then reset. This has followed me from BAMF NTE 1.6.3 over to the new Remix 1.7. I loaded the custom MR1 ruu and factory data reset. It still FCs, I also did not use Ti Backup and just reinstalled all apps through the market and it does it. I did not get a new app, I have been running the same apps since I got the thunderbolt and it ran fine before. Any ideas on what I could do to fix it?
Update 1: I realized I didnt run a fix permissions and that didnt do anything.
I am completely redoing the root exploit every step like its a new phone and will flash MR1 and just run stock for a little bit to see if I get FC issues. I had no issues with the phone until now and my terminal read out is SEM08G like everyone else.
When in doubt go back to a stable stock to establish a base then move to a custom rom to determine if it's your phone or the custom rom.
yeah I am running the stock MR1 and I got market FCs getting a few apps but nothing big yet. I used to run 1.6.3 just fine before GB.

[Q] Help me please!

The other day I updated my phone to 2.3.4 using odin. after that I had a horrible wifi signal and i kept losing my data connection all together. So I flashed back to Froyo 2.2.1. I am so confused because my phone kept force closing, I did a factory reset and it stopped but it says my kernal version is 2.6.32.9...is that normal? Also how do I go about flashing a good rom to my phone? The way it is now it is soooo slow which is why i updated to the 2.3.4...any information would be helpful as I am ready to throw my phone out the window.

Which 2.3.4 ROM did you flash via ODIN? KG4/KG6 both show less wifi signal but I actually haven't seen a difference in speed. I'm on this one right now:
[ROM] Stock Deodexed T959VUVKG4 with Root [Gingerbread 2.3.4][7.26.2011]--Whitehawkx
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1187293
The way to properly get to that is by doing the following:
1. ODIN
[ROM-Leak][ODIN] Gingerbread 2.3.4 T959VUVKG4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183413
2. Then boot up like normal and wait for it to load up into the system.
3. Turn off your phone again (shutdown) and put it back into download mode.
4. ODIN this to get CWM+Root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194032 (use the ODIN version)
5. Keep lagfix disabled via the voodoo menu in recovery after you flash the CWM+root+Voodoo EXT4 package in the link in step 4.
6. Boot into the system. It's up to you, I flashed this

Which is a deodexed build which allows you to theme etc.
Some people have had issues getting onto EXT4 partitions while on a gingerbread ROM. I had a few issues myself. Needless to say there are several places to read about how to get EXT4 working on all partitions if you want to.
Best of luck, hope this helps.
Well to be completely honest, I don't know anything about partitions. All I know is that I updated my phone and then all of a sudden I had a horrible wifi connection and my data connection would just drop out all together and say "searching". I would have to reboot my phone 2 or 3 times to get it working again. What is a good rom to update to? Is have the kernal build that I do going to be an issue?

[Resolved] [Q] CM7 GT-S5570 installation problem

Hi,
so here's my situation: I've previously installed CM7 by tj_style (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167750) on my phone and everything was working fine.
About a week ago, I flashed an overclocked kernel by squadzone (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344440) (I flashed the 782MHz kernel, but after that for a while and getting a lot of shut down, I turned the max frequency to 715, which stabilized the phone) and again, it worked well.
I downloaded an app called Cpu Tuner from the market (https://market.android.com/details?...SwxLDEsImNoLmFtYW5hLmFuZHJvaWQuY3B1dHVuZXIiXQ..) because I wanted to try a new cpu tool (Had Antutu's Cpu Master free edition before). I used the "Check phone's capabilities" option on the Cpu tuner, and all of a sudden the phone just reboots straight into recovery mode. I try rebooting the system, and it gets stuck at the CyanogenMod logo, starts looping it without ever actually booting into the system.
I've already tried wiping data and cache (a lot), going back to stock Gingerbread, which by the way, does the same thing, loops the Samsung logo, re-installing the CyanogenMod and just about everything that comes to mind..
Is there anyone with a similar problem or any idea on how I could fix this?
PS: sorry about all the links, thought it might make it easier if it was clear what I was talking about
Okay, so I managed to get the phone working after all. I was already pretty hopeless, I read a few threads about the Riff Box and was ready to send my phone to the service, but I wanted to take a few last shots at it.
I got it to work by first flashing back to froyo, a package S5570XXJL9 that had separate files instead of a one package, then Gingerbread S5570XXKPI again with separate files, then to clockwork and finally CyanogenMod 7
Hopefully this thread may be of use to anyone facing the same problems as I've faced

[Q] Unable to get stable Working ROM

Hi All,
I own a Motorola Defy. I am kind of new to android developement. i had 2.2 on my phone and wanted to upgrade, followed all the steps available online for cyanogen 7.1, liquid arc, etc. with all the ROM's i had the same problem. Everything goes fine, until i reboot my phone. The moment i do that after installing new ROM. I loose network connectivity and a pop up msg comes up continously saying android.phone.com stopped responding. From there i have to do the complete wipe once again. i read in some forum about flashing radio, however i dont see this option in my recovery mode at all.
Anybody who knows how to resolve this????????
I looked this up in the forums. This applies to going from 2.1 to 2.2, but sounds like it may help you. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=947578
Thank you for the reply.
However, I was already running Froyo on my defy. I can also go back to that via RSD or by restoring it to the ROM i backedup before i started this testing. My concern is why i am not able to Install this custom ROM and make it working when all others can do it without any issues. I am still running Cyanogen nightly ROM (2.3.7). I also know the moment i restart my phone it will loose network connectivity and will keep getting those pop msgs. Is there a way to curb that.
Appreciate the help...
You can look for MIUI for the defy. I have also MIUI on my Defy and it works perfect
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Thanks for your reply....
I was missing the defy baseband update. Thank fully that fixed the network connectivity issue. Now i am running ICS 4.0.1 perfectly. Except the camera everything is working smooth. Had little issue with restore from Titanum backup. But an unregistered version of TB fixed it.

No apps via wifi?

Hi everyone,
I have the GS3 and I am currently running the newest Galaxy Mod ROM by Pure. As soon as I ran the v6 supercharger script, for some reason. I can no longer download market apps via WiFi. They work fine over 4g and I can download everything else via WiFi but specifically market apps say "downloading" but never make any progress. Now for the strangest part, I have even wiped data/cache, flashed 2 different ROMs, etc but still have the same issue. I'm a ROM flashing addict and this is my 4th rooted phone so I'm not new to this but I've never seen this issue before. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
