Help needed on display!!! - Samsung Galaxy R i9103

I am getting a strange experience with my device...Sometimes when I press the Home button I get a yellowish lockscreen and If I unlock then all the display repeats the color texture...
I dont know wat to do.I tried taking a screenshot when screen does this but the saved image is perfect...
This goes away when I click on the lock button on the right and press hom eonce again...all returns to normal...
device is rooted with CWM: no new kernel or rom installed ...counter is still 0
I do not want to take to Samsung center unless its a HW issue...
The image doesn't make sense...please tell me if i can get some logs when i press home button...

1 thing I forgot to tell, I did a complete reset both from cwm and from settings...if that helps.
device info:
version 2.3.5
India
Kernel : 2.6.36.3-I9103XWKI5
Baseband: I9103DDKH4

This is most probably hardware issue or maybe low level firmware (not rom) and service center is your only choice, you can flash it to you stock (if you find it) and take it to repair

but how will I show this problem to them?? I cannot reproduce the problem at all....it comes without any reason...today it came twice...once it showed just a white blank screen when a message came instead of lock screen...
When the problem came i even took a screenshot but that was surprisingly fine.... :O

Please help me understand if this is a HW or OS problem>>>
I took some photos luckily...hope you guys can see

Flash your stock ROM and see if any improvement..Otherwise service center is the only choice..
Seems like a faulty LCD...Can go for a warranty RMA..

ok..so now how can i get my warranty back...I have rooted and there's cwm
but the counter is 0..
If i try to put indian romback on it then wont the counter show 1??
Please tell wat to do

Dude, just 1) flash your original firmware, and 2) wipe data/factory reset (u can do it in recovery mode or settings->privacy->factory data reset both of them works equally good)
Custom flashing counter NEVER increases after original firmware installation!!!!

Got it..warranty is back in order... will take it back today lets c wat they say

What happened after that? Please update...

wow sry totally forgot... ok in a quick summary...
If ur phone behaves like the pics that i've uploaded above, then u definitely need a replacement of phone...
I took it to the service center and they called up the guy who sold it to me and told me return it along with the box...after 3 days voila i got a rand new SGR...NOW its kickass

Touch Screen not working, Tilt stuck even after flashing new ROM. Help Please!

Hello Friends,
I have been actively using Various ROMs in this section of the forum. I have flased almost each one of them and love them all.
I recently installed PDACorner ultimate v19 and it was working fine. I loved it.
However, today I faced strange problem. My touch screen stopped working. So I tried to realign it and it wasn't working at all. i could use the hardware buttons, but not the touch screen.
I did a hard reset and then my mobile stuck at the screen where it asks to "tap to continue".
and i could do nothing now.
Then i flashed the Simple OS to it and again the same problem. I dont know how to proceed now?
Is there any way to get through the initial touch screen condition which says "tap here to continue" ? My phone is within the warranty period but cant get it sent back due to unlocking thingy i did. Is reverting it back to the original condition possible without involving the touch screen ?
Please help me.
Thank parleyp for this.

Yes you can revert without the touch screen..you can flash the stock rom via usb or sd card and then you can change to stock spl either via usb using sspl since you now know what to do to avoid the alignment screen or sd card using cmonex's tools.
FYI--welcome.not is the name you need to give to a blank file and put it on the root of the sd card. Make sure it has no extension.
I had to put mine back to stock without the usb cable since my usp port shorted last week.
Hello, my friend.
Sadly, my Kaiser has the same problem since past september, and then send it back to Houston, Tx for repair and they tell me the flash memory has ben corrupted, and just like you i try different ROM's and one day the touchscreen fail after used a Rom from ROMeOS. The only solution its change the mobo and then use an official ROM before flash a custom one.
Fortunately, Mr. Pedro Gonzalez (HTC Technical Support Manager), give me a hand and my phone was considered in warranty, so the repair was a kind present from HTC. Thank you again, Mr. Gonzalez !!!! My advice is if you still have warranty, use it.
Good luck with your Kaiser!!!
Sorry for my poor english.
Regards.
Thanks a lot

Reverted back to the locked State
I used the following thread:
Updated: Reverting back to the AT&T or HTC ROM and SPL for Warranty or return
and the Idiots guide to revert my phone back to the original state. I had to try JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe instead of the regular version.
I guess I am done with this part now.
Thanks a ton to you guys. Lets see what AT&T guys have to say about this?
A quick question...

Just a quick question? How do i make sure that my phone is locked and its now under warranty? Is there any software available that can provide us this information? I am sorry if it sounds like a noobs question but i really dont know how to check this before sending it back?
when your phone is off press the camera and the power button at the same time.
Make sure your phone doesnt say "Security Unlocked" at the top or at the bottom right corner it doesnt say Hard-SPL (insert number here) but that its says just "SPL (insert number here) "

Thanks a lot for the reply but I think that i am missing something... I did the following:
1. Turned off the phone.
2. Pressed the camera button and held it there while i pressed the power button (holding both buttons).
But the device started as usual. And i could not see the any such display. The display was the same as if i would have pressed just the power button. Is it possible for you to provide a screen shot of this?
My bad!
Whoopss! I tried it again, and i got the tri color screen which says following three lines in the red strip:
KAIS1*0
SPL-1.56.0000
CPLD-8
and following word in the white strip:
Serial
I hope it is fine now?
I got my new Tilt
I got MY new Tilt!
I am Happy
welcome.not
just simply create a 'welcome.not' file on windows open notepad then save it w/out content filename welcome.not make sure that the extention in not welcome.not.txt otherwise it wont work...put the file to sd card root then hard reset by pressing the power button for 10 second then boot again after about 5-10 seconds for safety....gudluck hope this could help you!!

Warning: Make sure you have backed up app important data you have on the phone before you reset the phone, because everything will be deleted.
From the Home screen, drag upwards
Select Settings > SD card, USB Mass Storage & phone storage > Factory data reset > Reset phone
Enter your screen unlock pattern
Tap Erase everything
Hard Rest
How strange,
I've read that before
but...
when I drag my screen up and go to
Settings --> SD card, USB Mass Storage & phone storage
I do not see any Factory data reset at all...
My problem is, when i use the 'real' keyboard, my screen freezes.. I can't use it.
But when I put my keyboard back again, my screen just unfreezes..
I've done a new software-update (same version ,.. 2.1 update-1 ) but
that wouldn't help too..
Tnx
okay!
then go to
settings-> privacy -> factory data reset
leme know if u have found out the option or not.. i will try to help u as much i can..
Hard Reset
Hi,
Tnx, i've found the option
but without any result
Tnx for the help, however..
Thijs
if u really want to thank then please click the thank button.. it what keeps us going in this forum.. sorry if i am being rude to ask u to do dis..
good day
anyways what exactly are ur problems.. list them.. i will see if i can solve it..
Hard Reset
Done
Wel,..
- My screen freezes when I use my 'real' keyboard. It doesn't respond any more
- On the right top of the phone, there's a little LED, which won't work any more.
- My screen slides around (so hard to explane). Sometimes my screen 'splits' into two peaces and the right part goes to the left and the left to the right.. If you understand what I mean.. (shouldn't be surprised if you doesn't but I can't explain any better)
okay
now this is completely a kernel related problem!!! except for the LED part..
if u are in stock rom (i.e u have not rooted your phone and using it the way it came) then u rush it immediately to the vendor coz it has got lot of "bugs"!!!
if u have a rooted phone and using a custom rom then wipe all data, cache, dalvik cache, sd ext and then flash your rom from recovery OR better still use another rom..
(if u dont understand this part then u have a unrooted phone for sure!)
ANYWZ before taking it to the vendor check out the list of things that causes this problems
1. software related:- some software u install causes this problem
2. updating:- if u updated your software from sony erricson's website then in certain cases this problem occurs..
3. if your phone is suddenly showing these strange behavoiurs then best thing is not to do anything yourself and take it to your vendor!!
WELL IF U R WILLING TO TAKE THE RISK THEN ROOT YOUR PHONE THEN INSTALL A CUSTOM ROM.. MIND YOU THAT IT WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY AND WILL NOT B ACCEPTED BY YOUR MANUFACTURER! (HOW TO DO THIS IS JUST A SEARCH IN THIS FORUM, BUT I STILL ADVISE U NOT TO DO THIS!!)
GOOD DAY
Hard Reset
Hi,
No I don't understand that at all (A)
but I know one thing, the problems are getting worser and worser..
Now my screen ain't respond for an hour... I've tried everything but
it won't respond
rush it to ur vendor!
Hard Reset
I'll do,..
Tnx for your help

take a good look, the green LED should flash atleast ONCE....i had the problem when i was new to rooting and installing ROMS.....do this...
1. make your deskie/lappy fully prepared to flash your phone by SEUS, only requiring you to connect the phone in flash mode (even keep your USB to phone cord inserted to the computer)
2. power off the phone by holding the home+power key (& keep holding them, now press the back button).
3.release the power key but KEEP HOLDING THE HOME KEY and the back key...(if you release the home key, the cell will restart).
4. now connect the phone to the computer and hopefully it will connect in flash mode
hope this helps in solving your problem

[Q] Galaxy s2 no service after factory reset

Hi all,
I bought the GS2 two weeks ago, did nothing but rooting it, stayed with the original gingerbread OS.
A few days ago i noticed i had no reception, i tried turning airplane mode on, and then off (to restart the connection), but the phone got stuck in airplane mode.
I restarted the phone a couple of times, but it didn't work - still was stuck in airplane mode. I eventually decided to factory reset it.
After doing this the phone was not in airplane mode anymore, but it had no service (a circle with a cross line is appearing in the top right corner).
The really strange thing is that i have no imei number, no wifi or BT mac (when entering the 'about' section in the settings menu).
It looks like the phone still thinks it stuck in flight mode.
I tried looking in the efs dir, and noticed that the files nv_data.bin, nv_core.bin, their md5's and the nv_state files, all were renamed (now starting with a dot, hidden files).
I tried removing the dots from the beginning of the file names, I tried reinstalling the original ROM... nothing helps. I have no backup of the efs dir, before the problem appeared.
I don't know how really flight mode works, but it looks like the process handling it got stuck while entering flight mode, leaving the files in this strange state. Maybe there is a 'flight mode flag' in one of the files, telling the phone it is not allowed to access the files regarding the imei, wifi and BT identifiers.
It is worth mentioning that when i start using the wifi, the wifi mac updates and appears - the same would have happened if the phone was in airplane mode.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
sami
Sorry I don't know but I have *exactly* the same problem and symptoms starting on 7th Aug after 3 months of use. I didn't even root. You're not alone. I think it needs to go back to the shop.
I have the exact same problem. Did anyone find a solution to this?
Never heard about this problem before, but I have a couple of suggestions:
1. Try to power off the phone, remove the SIM card and battery, wait for a minute, insert them and power on the phone.
2. Try to wipe cache and dalvik cache.
3. Try to install a different ROM with full wipe.
Mobile Network Unavaible
Good evening friends!
I am facing a strange problem with my Galaxy S II. Last night I was using the Rom Criskello, and everything was working fine. So I decided to make a backup and install other roms just to test. I installed the rom and my device Miui NDT was unsigned, I ended up doing strange and full wipe to install the ROM GalnetMiui. But I opted to return to the Criskello Rom. This morning I realized that my phone does not make calls and even shows that the data is active, but strangely, the signal is full.
Reinstall the original rom Retail Brazil and yet when I try to make calls I get Mobile Network Unavailable ...
My simcard is old, I'll buy a new one for testing. Someone tell me if this is normal?
galaxy s2 no service
Hi all,
I had a similar problem, while using Skype I suddenly got the dreaded no service indicator.. Took phone to Samsung and they said to check if it was maybe barred from the network which it wasn't.. I was about to take it back to the shop I bought it from, then decided to remove my google account but the phone forced me to do a factory data reset, under settings -> Privacy.
I did this and then...... Happy days all was fine again )
I think it was the skype application that caused the problem but will confirm this...
Life is good again!
Hope this helps...
i having the same problem, after reboot I'm having respiration but only emergency call
it's started as i flash Lp1 modem, in the Base.b it's said Unknown, but after it i flashed KP4 and everything act normal
so i really don't know!!!
i thoght this is something in my modem F.w LP1 so i went back to factory KI4
didn't help.
changed my rom from CM9 to Checkrom v4 didn't help.
factory rest didn't do much.
i found by mistake that if i am using the sim card on different phone make a sort
phone call and putting back the sim card to SG2. only this my letting my take phone call.
I'm hopping may be some one will read my temporary solution, and will help as to find the right solution .
...
restoring the oldest CMW and EFS restore manually didn't do much
i will keep looking, please if someone got a clue ...
Thank you for all
i will keep on going till i will find a solution.
i believe that the main issue is that if i didn't delete /efs all the restoring didn't really restore this folder.
this is very risky, do a good backup with EFS-PRO
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308546
it's all started because ididn't do a good backup!!!
pinkman, have any progress?
My solution

unable to flash stock rom using odin

Hi,
I am tried a lot to flash stock ROM to my galaxy R but everytime it failed. I am using Windows 7 and odin. Everytime odin start writing the rom but it radomly freezes when screen autolocks or display goes off. Why this is happeing? Why can't in recovery mode screen keep itself active? I am unable to stop phone display going off. Please help me to flash my mobile as its currently unusable.
Odin log shows then removed when display goes off.
recovery mode? It has nothing to do with flashing via Odin.
To install your FW u must enter the download mode: volume down + home + power
Anyway if your screen goes off itself in recovery mode or download mode then it's an abnormal behavior that can rather indicate HW issue.
oh sorry if that is wrong term I used. I thought to flash using odin I need to go recovery mode using vol up+ power ON + Menu key combination.
What I need is just to have working phone with stock 2.3.5 ROM. Using odin it fails sometimes say 30% or 50% or even 70%. The same ROM I have flashed successfully but always touching the finger on display to active the phone screen. But same is not working now.
Reason I flashed or flashing is that my phone started radomly restarting and if I off it and wait for 2-3 hrs then it will start. So I decided to flash my phone.
Download mode doesn't auto-lock. Are you sure ur in download mode?
I had exactly the same problem of odin restart in download mode. Removing the SD card and SIM card and try flashing it.
took fr service as phone restarted often and they change the PBA(Printed board assembly) for me.
Yes, after some radom time and before rom writing finishes, screen locks(looses display so odin removes that device) and writing fails.
I have tried more that 15 times and yes all those tried without SIM and SD card.
I purchases this 4 months back only but as I have flashed it and phone is not working did I loose the warranty?
Try again with this steps
1. Download stock rom package (use checkfus)
2. Turn off ur phone now hold vol down key+home key+powerkey
3. Ur phone will boot in download mode u will see warning, press vol up to continue
4. Now open odin on ur pc, connect phone usind cable and wait till box turns yellow noe chose downloaded stock rom package in pda
5. Check auto reboot, reset time and make sure re partion is not checked and click start
6. Wait till process complet u will see progress bar on phone and odin

step by step guide for flashing Stock ROM with ODIN,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406664
following the steps which are mentioned in the above link if you are still facing the problem them there may be some problem with ".TAR" file better download it again and try flashing.
xlm13x,
My phone is not working and saying "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies". how can I re-download stock ROM?
mj.vikram,
i follows the exact same stpes from the same thread. still no luck.
can I claim the warranty as I just want to flash original rom again to see if restart problem resolves and it got failed?
Is there any limit to flash a firmware? while searching on google got some page saying there is some taint-firmware counter? what is that?
Dude....don't try to turn your device on i regular way, but press combination: volume down+home+power simultaneously. You must be able to enter the DM! (U can try removing battery and putting it back)
Recovery mode in Kies has nothing to do with rm on your phone. I really don't think Kies will help you.
There is no issue in going to download mode for me. Just its not able to keep on itself till the firmware writing completes. So now I think it looks h/w issue to me. What worries me is how to get it in normal working phone and give it to service center.

Ok now i got your point, phone is coming out of Download mode while flashing the stock ROM.... am i correct.
if this is the problem then there may be some issue with H/W..... if you haven't rooted your mobile and you are on stock ROM then take it to Service center...
Have u flashed any custom rom on ur phone? Is ur download counter has been increased?
Sent from my GT-I9103 using xda premium
Just take it to the service center. They won't be able to see if you rooted your device or not anyway in such case IMO. The phone is unable to boot, and reflash either. IT's clearly a HW issue. We have no power to affect download or recovery mode to be honest. I really don't think there's anybody on this forum that can help you fix DM.
what happens if sufficient battery is not there will it take power from system.
eg: if battery is only 5 % and we connected it in DM what will happen, will it continue or it will be switched off.
Thanks all for the replies. Let me confirm you all once again. My phone was using stock ROM. Never rooted it(not even knowing how to do that) Just frustrating restart issue and some google search conlcuded as I should flash stock rom.
so, I am doing that I even got success in flashing my phone after some attempts. Then for two days it worked fine. But again same problem started and I become impatient and tried to flash stock rom and it failed. Now my phone is nowhere so I can't check anything on my phone. How can I know download counter in this situation?
I heard service center need phone with stock rom installed and working and then they will take warranty claim. Is that the case?
Worried what to do with my phone now? it looks h/w issue to me also now that is why once flashing starts after some time it fails before reaching 100%.
no worries just take it to Samsung Service Center and tell them that your phone got switched off and its not starting, they will ask you to provide invoice xerox copy and flash the Firmware and give it back to you...
as you haven't tried rooting or installing Custom FW, so no need think of the Download counter.
toberabl century
Yes. I now understand what download counter is and my phone is already showing it as "NO" so its not custom ROM flashed. Hope this will be enough for me to claim warraty for my non-OS phone.

Give ur phone in service they will fix it for free, u havent rooted ur phone and also ur counter is zero so no need to worry about warranty void, do update what happens
Sent from my GT-I9103 using xda premium
Dude, dont tell them anything about you trying to flash stock fw. Just tell that the phone is not staying on. That should do.
It definitely seems like a hardware issue to me, so probably even they wont be able to flash a firmware and so they will start working on the hardware aspect. Just dont let them know that u tried reflashing the firmware or such coz they might try to void the warranty saying you fiddled with the phone.
Keep us updated.
I had exactly same problem as you, random restarts. It will become more frequent and troublesome if you keep the problem.
Give it to service center as your counter is 0. Your phone surely needs main board change.

The warning custom os screen is known as download mode and it is good news that you are able to access it. Your phone is soft bricked and this is an easy fix. Go to the return to stock link in my signature and follow the steps given on how to use Odin. The only thing you will do different is flashing the ATT 4.0.4 rather than 2.3.5

Yep odin can be used because download mode has 2 different screens but they are both the same
