Help before flashing Rome again - Samsung Mesmerize

Just wondering is there a way to do a backup of my stock showcase before flashing roms as I had problems on last phone with Bluetooth once going to froyo and wanted to try with the new showcase but just in case had problems I could go back also does anyone know why the Bluetooth would disconnect and phone would vibrate and could never reconnect without repairing. Any help is appreciated

I always use Nandroid in CWM. That's has been the best way for me to backup and restore my phone. I'm sure there is other options but that's the one I use. As far as bluetooth. I have noticed in a lot of the ROM threads that some do have issues with bluetooth. Some of the ROMs are not 100% complete and are still a work in progress. Hope this helps.

[Q] Wifi issues.

Why does my wifi connection disconnects and connects a lot? I am on cm7 but I know it's not a rom issue because it was also happening when I was on infused 2.2.3. I'm on the j2 leaked modem, but it also happened when I was on the i3 modem or the i4, I forget which.
I don't believe it's my router, because there's a solid signal when I test it on the laptop and on our roku.
What do you think the problem is and how can I fix it?
Thank you in advance.
Edit: I am coming from the Jordan's j2 rom. It first started happening on the infused rom. Restored back to stock and went onto the infused froyo. Haven't had a problem on that rom. Then j2 came out and flashed that. All was good until last night. Flashed cm7 this morning and made sure I did a full wipe. It's still happening.

Any ideas? Did a full wipe and flashed cm7 again. Back on i3 and still the same. Restored my apps without data through tibu.

I have the same issue. Stock unrooted.

Yeah. It's getting annoying. Lol ill try to go back to stock using gtg's ultimate unbrick. It worked last time I did that.

Okay so what I am noticing is that the wifi on my phone is constantly scanning for connection. and when it finds my wifi, it tries to connect with it, even if it is already connect. so it forces it to disconnect, then connect again.
anybody know how to stop this?
I'm stock and don't have the issue, also have tried Infused/GSInfuse and didn't have the issue, though I didn't stick with either of them for more than a few days before going back to stock. I use mine on wifi at home and work without problems at all.
Hmm yeah I don't know why it's doing it. It didn't do it before. I'm still trying to figure it out.

It was happening before cm7 so I know it's not a rom issue. Started to happen in infused and carried into the gb leaks. Stopped for a while, and it's happening again.

Update: wow so far my wifi hasn't disconnected on me yet. So I'm guessing it's is something with the system binaries or whatever you want to call it. Before it would keep scanning and force to disconnect and try to connect again with my router. Still testing but so far so good. I would recommend that app to anybody who's having the same problem as I was.

[Q] Odd sounds while in a call.

While the phone is dialing out or while in a conversation, it makes sounds like someone is breathing. I know it sounds weird but sometimes it sounds like a toilet flushing. I dont know if someone hacked my phone or if its a hardware/software thing. Just curious if anyone else has had this happen to them. Also im running octane 3.0 and this did not occur when i was on stock unrooted. Thanks in advance!

I had that problem with my last Galaxy s 4G and my new one. I don't recall having the problem when I was on Froyo. I had the problem just this morning when placing a call. It lasts for a second or so then goes away. I've no idea why it happens, though.
Anybody know how to fix it?

If you are on GB just flash Dr. Honks kernel and you'll have CWM and root or superoneclick 2.2 has worked for me just to root just takes aa while like 5+ mins

I'm tempted to flash another modem, like KI3, to see if it still occurs. I don't remember having the issue until I was on KJ6 but I might be mistaken.

Thanks I'll try that this weekend... It hasn't happened today so it may have resolved itself. What modems are compatable with the kj6 kernel?

Well I believe any modem is compatible but people have had a lot of success with KI3 modem ...I personally prefer KD1 it gives me good service in my area but I think it changes

Pretty much any of them. People generally use a different modem to get better data speeds in their respective location.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
It could be your sim card. If the sim card has connectivity issues, this sound is known to happen. Switch out your Sim with someone else and use the phone. if the sound happens on the phone with someone else's Sim, then it is your sd card. remove the sd card and format it on your computer. Then, with the sd card still removed, do a factory reset and make a few calls with your actual sim in the phone; without adding your google account. See if it persists. place the sd card back in the phone and add your account, buy don't add apps until you've tested it out. After a day (my recommendation), add one app at a time. make some test calls because you could dl an app with a virus, which can be causing connectivity issues.
Good idea with swapping the modem. I haven't tried that one. Thanks for the suggestion.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Interesting ideas about the SIM & SD card. I'd be curious to know if/why either of those would cause that weirdness.
I'm going to try the KI3 modem a bit later. I'll report back after some testing.
Modems cant be flashed with cwm can they? if so ill do it today too... I dont have a computer atm so no odin.

Indeed they can. I flashed KI3 via CWM earlier. Check out FBis251's [Odin/CWM] Modems (10/29/2011 added KJ6 modem) page. There's a link to his CWM-flashable modems.
Stephen, yes, i confirmed with one of my friends in google. Weird, isn't it?! I tried formatting without my sd card in and the problem stopped. Idk, lol.

Completely weird. Thanks for the info, though. Who would've thought?
I always have that problem. I was thinking of starting a thread too. It's like a "WOOSH" right before the phone starts dialing.

Yup, very good way to explain it. Haven't noticed it *yet* since I flashed the KI3 mode.

Clean up tools are not good. If you can't wipe system/data factory reset in cwm you don't need to be flashing roms.

Well I did because in the op for cleanup batch he was having the same problem so I tried it didnt work and I know how to flash and wipe through cwm. I work in a place that does not allow radios and I love to have music when I work and the only way I can do that is Bluetooth.

Sorry to hear that out does not solve the issue for you. The reference link in the op includes the method with gb 2.3.3 just flip the recovery in the folder so you have cwm as the reference will push stock.
BTW if you don't need mute with bluetooth you should switch to anything over 2.3.3 as for some reason the disconnect problem gets resolved that way... I couldn't as I must have mute over bluetooth

I need help please

I have a problem with my sidekick 4g when I try to go into recovery mode it freezes on the boot logo after that I tried charging it to see if nomorepowah would show up but I have to take the battery out for like an hour I've been trying to find the stock recovery and I can't find it I didn't change the recovery either all I tried doing a long time ago is install cwm but now it freezes when I try to go into recovery anybody have an answer to why its doing this?
Sent from my SGH-T839 using xda premium
Might have to odin back. I think its partially the nomoarpower's fault. Its obviously affecting how your booting, and it is a coverup for boot. Try removing it, and if it dosent work, then odin back to stock, then flash whatever you had. This might not be the solution, just trying to help

Download Titanium Backup and try to delete it.
Then install ICS messaging from the market.
I would assume this would work but I haven't tried it so back it up just in case.

Phone reboots/hangs on splash screen

I really would appreciate some input on this.. I was on NexusMod ICS for about two days before I woke up one morning to find that my phone had rebooted and was stuck at the splash screen. I tried pulling the battery and powering it on but got the same result, so I tried to get into CWM and couldn't. It would boot to recovery but not long enough to actually do anything, so I ODIN'd stock rom and CWM then flashed AOKP build 38 instead of NexusMod. Everything was fine for a few days but this morning I woke up to my phone stuck on the splash screen again, only this time when I pulled the battery and powered it on, it booted up fine, but my wallpaper had changed (weird).. So I really don't have a clue why this would happen, but I'd appreciate some help, and TIA!

Yes, that's a good idea, but wouldn't you think it would be an app that's causing it since it happened on two very different roms? Or am I way off in my thinking?
