Random restarts, factory reset and bootloop - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

I tried using the MIUI ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538234 and switched back to XXKPQ (Was using XXKPQ before installing MIUI) now after a months time, I'm getting random restart and bootloops and factory resets. Anybody got any idea what's going on?
Update: I updated once more with XXKPQ using Odin but I'm having a bootloop. But if I CF-Root it, it works fine.

Umm.... it may be some thing wrong with the rom not the hardware, so, you may format the "system":
recovery mode => reset factory => yes => wipe catch => yes => storage and mounts => mount system => format system => yes.
you will have nothing even to boot, so, power off and go to download mode and flash the XXKPE (with pit) and then flash XXKPQ using ODIN.
*Note: you may backup all your data in the internal sd, you may got all of it formatted!
You should have a totally clean rom now with no remains of the old flashed roms.
At last, you may wait another one -more experience than me- to fix the problem before trying mine

For questions, either post it in the respective qna thread in the general section or create a new thread in the general section so that this would not pollute the development section.

Thanks a bunch for your help mate. The problem is now solved and my phone is back again to normal. I was unaware of mount storage>format system trick. Anyway thanks for the help.

Sadly, the problem is back and I don't know what to do.

Hello,
Anybody?

did it happen to flash miui again?
or is it happening right now on stock?
cozif its happening clean stock ... you could be suffering hardware issues

Its happening on a stock XXKPE. Hardware issue? What kind of hardware issue?

motherboard

I guess I have to dump this crappy phone. My nokia e71 was much much much better.

Just don't buy Samsung products unless its their best product. If not go to HTC or LG or Sony. Buy the right ones

Here is some more details how the phone reset and restart itself ( I used a time lapse cam). The notification bar will display "SD Card removed unexpectedly" then shows, preparing USB storage and it restarts!
I remember once I used a memory Swap to SD script using CWM which actually swaps USB storage and SD Card. I don't know why the script still conflict with my phone even though I did a clean install with XXKPE (using Latona PIT) and later with XXKPQ. Earlier, under USB storage it was showing External SD contents and now its showing internal SD. I'm attaching an image after I removed my external SD

My Internal SD and External SD card has been swapped!

I wouldn't know if it's the switch external-internal sd card script because I've never used it... But you could try flashing your region's current firmware and bringing the phone in for repairs. Definitely sounds like a hardware issue. If they ask you if you modded anything, just say no. lol

My phone was shipped with froyo arabic rom. Forgot the name though. I guess I have to try that. I forgot the firmware name

I confirm. It's a hardware failure. It happened on my 9003 (warranty)
The only way to fix it, is replace the mainboard.

Sorry for bumping this old thread. I got my Galaxy S repaired. I was completely under warranty and Samsung replaced my motherboard. And yes the restart is caused by a hardware issue and there is no other fix other than to remove/replace the internal SD card holder. I'm lucky that the new motherboard I got is having a whooping ~12GB internal SD (~2GB Earlier)
Once again, thanks for everybody who helped me out

submodel
i9003 have many sub-model.
We can identify MB by internal memory (4GB 8GB & 16GB) that's sold on different area.
latona PIT upload from 8GB or 16GB MB(I guess), mean it's not fit to your 4GB MB.
Surprise is "Samsung service center can't find out this problem".
I want to explain more, but my English can't made you understand.
i9003L sell in South America

Hey. Just wanted to mention one thing. You don't need to format your SD Card to get it to work. All you need is to put the DLOAD folder with the UPDATE.APP in it. You can have other data on the sd card as well and it still works. People end up formatting their sd cards when most of them are already fat32, at least the main partition, so maybe you should edit that step?

[I9003][ROM][ext4]Catro ROM v1.2 & v2.1

I am not one of the developers of this ROM, I
just transferred from a Chinese forum to xda
Original post: (In Chinese)
A Froyo custom ROM for your i9003! v1.0 was released on 22/7!

Quadrant scores in v2.0(Screen Capture in original Chinese post.
Basic Info:
Android Version:2.2.1
Baseband Version:ZHKB4
Kernel Version:2.6.32.9
Firmware:ZCKC1
ROM Features:
Preinstalled:
Gmail
Android Market
TouchWiz 4 (or 4.5 in v2.1)
Other Features:
No Camera Sound (Just mute system volume to do it)
Deodexed
Zipalign
Rooted
Ext4 (Only in v2.0 or higher)
Advanced power menu (Including Reboot, Reboot to Recovery and Reboot to Download Mode)
Replace your CWM with an internal SD version
Filp to mute sound
Pick up phone to decrescando
Added Data on-off option on status bar (Up to 6 controls)
Numeric Battery
Bugs:
Can't charge your phone when your phone is shut down. (Happened in v2.0 or higher.)
You will get bootloop if you install v2.0 of this ROM directly if you are using the external sd version of CWM (I believe most of you have installed this version). So install v1.2 first. Please refer to installation guide.
A few users of this ROM said once they installed v2.0 and reboot, all contacts stored in their SIM card were all erased! But I had never face this problem.
Complete installation guide: (Highly recommended to follow 100%)
Please make sure CWM is installed!
Download v1.2 first and put into /sdcard (If you installed external sd version of CWM, put into your real sd card, it does't matter if you have already swap your internal sd and external sd card, just put into your real external sd card)
Boot into your Clockwork Mod Recovery
Choose install zip from sdcard ==》 choose zip from sdcard ==》Then select Catro_ZCKC1_V1.2_CWM.zip to install. (Notice that if you want to select anything, please use MENU button but not HOME button!)
After the installation is complete, reboot and you will now have the Catro ROM v1.2.
If you want to continue to install v2.0, just keep on follow me.
Because v2.0 used ext4 file system, converting to ext4 used to format all user data (sd card is not included), if you want to keep your own data, please follow my steps: (If you don't want to keep your user data,please skip.)
Go to CWM and choose backup, PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE ENOUGH SPACE IN YOUR INTERNAL SD CARD. (Once you installed Catro ROM v1.2, your CWM will automatically replaced with the internal sd version.)
Download v2.0 and put into your internal sd card.
Before you flash your v2.0 ROM, please take out your External sd card from your phone first. (Because I experienced that if you choose "wipe" option from CWM internal sd version, your external sd will also get wiped! Better to take out your external sd before you choose wipe from CWM)
Flash v2.0 in your phone via CWM (This time will be a bit longer for CWM to install, be patient.)
After v2.0 was installed, go back to CWM and choose "restore" from previous backup.
Then Flash the update package (Catro_ZCKC1_V1.x-V2.0.zip) to regain Numeric battery function.
Installation of Catro is now complete, you can download the attachment and update to v2.1 as well, but the TWlauncher 4.5 in v2.1 was written in Chinese, so I suggest you'd better to install the English one by your self.
Remarks: Because it is a ROM based on Asia Firmware ZCKC1, although there are English provided, but the addictive options in advanced power menu (Reboot, Recovery and Download Mode) were in Chinese. This could make you guys a bit inconvenient, but just remember their order is okay. Reboot option is right after Power off, followed by Recovery, Download Mode is the last one.
Download:
Catro_ZCKC1_v1.2.zip
Catro_ZCKC1_v2.0.zip
Catro_ZCKC1_v1.x-v2.0.zip

Well, there are already 3 different ROMs released in China. This Catro was the last one (but also the best) The others are not quite popular in China either. So I think the first custom ROM for i9003 actually is in China.
Chinese are fast... But rest of World never know what's going on there due to language and political policy problems. For example if you search custom rom on google then you will never find Chinese search result but they will tell you xda only.
Google is patriotic baised US company. But time now changing.
Just saying.

p.s Could you also try to ask them to make custom ROM for the GB in the future? hehe
omg.!!!!!!!!!!!no rom for 5 months and suddenly a couple in a flash!!!
Actually China is way advanced. Korea and HK have had android since the Huwawei latest model's kicked in, Tbh? The Huwawei model's are really epic, They're responsible for most 3G USB Modem's that major telecom services use. Also the Huwawei android version is very stable and with tons of epic features, Have you seen their contact transfer system? It's like Bump, But way more epic.

[Q] Pantech burst wifi stops working completly

I have a Pantech Burst running 4.0.4 rooted. today the wifi cut off and is stuck on "turning on" but never does. I deleted cache from recovery menu, factory reset it, and flashed cwm on it (hoping a new flash would fix it) the only option I have left is flashing a whole new stock rom. is there any other way or something else that could be wrong? maybe wifi chip went out? got water damage last week but I took it apart and blew dry the innards before I used it. any help would be appreciated. If i have time I am going to flash the rom. IDK if I will still be here by time its done downloading though :b
I am trying to use a program called "p9070 download tool" which is supposed to flash it. ive never heard of it before. it flashes it from a .pdl file? well last time it froze so maybe it will work this time. computer is recognizing it. does anyone know of a rom I can flash with odin? thats the way im used to doing it, at least if this doesnt work.
in my opinion you should use pantech burst download tool..
odin is known for samsung phones and trying it on burst may brick your phone..so try to stay away from odin..
For some reason I cannot get it to work. It shows up "S/W upgrade" on my phone then the program freezes. Running win7 64bit. Also I tried turning on power saver and its doing the same type of thing the wifi is. A loading circle as if its turning on forever. Gives me hope that its not a fried wifi chip! Thanks for your reply.

just so you can see what is going on. for some reason it connected to pantech download tool yesterday but not today. notice it says "no data" for the phones info. it wont let me click download.
well I got it to go with my stepdads usb cord. problem is it bricked my device after failing! my phone is stuck on "s/w upgrading" ive tried booting into recovery, taking the battery out waiting a half hour and putting it back in, putting in fastboot ( said it could not connect to device) nothing is working. i feel screwed now. anyone have any idea how to fix this dang thing!?!? even if it invo;ves taking it apart disconnecting something and putting it back together. if it makes it go away ill do it. thinking about just getting a new phone at this point! maybe a better one. it wasnt bad but ever since the wifi issue it has been getting worse.
-update- got it booted using that program. it has reverted back to 100% stock gingerbread and wifi still isnt working. I am going to assume that the wifi is burnt out or has a corroded connection. can anyone tell me where the wifi chip is on the motherboard? I wanna try to see if i can clean any possible corrosion out of it and try it again
ok! the only option left for you is to flash a rom again using livesuit. find a rom for your phone which can be flashed with livesuit and let it do it's work-done now you can work everything on it again.. the steps for liivesuit can be found by googling it - clean ics rom (droid extra .com) [by the way don't flash that rom only follow the procedures]. try it, if any problem- comment!!!!
I'm pretty sure there's no problem with the chip and it could be a problem with the phone software or the router/network.
But wait water damage? oh well. I guess you can try:

Backup your data, whatever you can (cost lists, etc).
Backup what you need into the SD card. Root, install recovery, copy google apps from that same link into SD card and also the rom. Check their hash codes to make sure you have the right files. Boot into recovery, and make sure you can access the two ZIP files in the SD card. Now format /system , /data, format cache and dalvik and then flash the rom and then Google apps.
Reboot and setup your phone.
We have been using this rom for many months and they have fixed all of the bugs (a few minor remain but they dont effect normal usage a lot). Only the following remain:
- compass
- BT Tether (Workaround - DUN using app BlueDun)
The rest are some minor bugs that people have noticed but it runs much better stock in any case.
Just ask around on the forum if you have questions.

thank you for all of this. turns out the wifi wasnt working because of corrosion. I took the motherboard out and cleaned the whole thing off with an old toothbrush and isopropyl alcohol. let it dry, put it together and wala. I had it on 4.0.4 then when i ran download tool it reverted back. its back on ICS now. re rooted. only thing that is really weird to me is the device is only recognizing 1gb internal memory. it comes with 12gb, and my computer recognizes it as 12.3gb. but i went to install a game and it said "low memory" so i went to uninstall and it said total memory was only 1gb.
I guess you can do some more drying/cleaning.
Water is conductive and if there was water when the phone was turned on at any time, it probably destroyed some chips. Memory and chips can be damaged by static shock for example.
So a short probably damaged the stuff. Cant be fixed other than a new motherboard. You could get a cheap broken screen phone from ebay and switch the motherboards.

Don't do this, if you are not experienced enough!

How to install:
Make a Backup over recovery!
And make a backup of your data before you try.
Download the zip file wich is for your Android version, htc_one_sv_fstab_JB.zip for JB or htc_one_sv_fstab_ICS.zip for ICS from attachment and flash it in recovery.
If you wanna go back, flash the htc_one_sv_fstab_orig_JB.zip for JB or the htc_one_sv_fstab_orig_JB.zip for ICS in recovery.
We do not need to be S-OFF , do we??
Thanks
S-OFF is not needed. Maybe the russian kernel but you can try it first without.
is the data gonna be moved to the new location automagicly?
Mine was empty, so i can not say. I copied all to my PC to get sure to keep all data.

dev_mount sdcard2 /storage/sdcard0/ext_sd emmc /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host
dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host
thats whats in there.
so probably the way to go, i think, is to copy all the stuff from /storage/sdcard0 to /storage/sdcard0/ext_sd before flashing.
Or copy to pc and back afterwards.
Hi.
I translated this tuto on a french forum, and someone tried it with ICS, it's possible that it doesn't work... Anyone still on ICS here who could try it ?
On JB, no problem though.

He pm'ed me also, but as almost all people are on jb meanwhile, i don't think that there will be someone searching for a solution on ics.
And also as you know this mod is from another forum where it was downloaded. many times. I think, if it were faulty they had removed it.
swap
Hi, can it be done in stock recovery? i dont want to unlock or root it...
No.
Will this work on Boost mobile version running jb?

You can try. Stock files are the same.
Backup everything.
But i would change them manually, cause i don't know, if it flashes on the right partition for boost.
Edit:
Should also be flashable for you.
I'm a little scared I might brick my new jb install ..I should get the new working cwm installed first.

If you don't wanna flash:
First backup your data. Then you can copy the modded vold.fstab to a folder above and set the correct permission like the stock file has. Now copy it, go into the etc folder, rename the old file to vold.fstab.bak and copy immediately the modded one into the etc folder.
Then reboot and see whats happened.
Memory
Is it possible to repartition internal and external memory? I mean join external memory with internal and make sdcard as external memory?
Yep, just read what's after "if you wanna go back" in the 1st post.
two-way recording
Hello! I come from Taiwan, want to ask you, there is two-way recording or not?
Sorry, could you be more explicit ?

He wants a feature that must be activated in kernel (short version).
So he needs someone who can build kernels....

Stuck on "Update HTC Sense Home" loop

Hi all,
I'm stuck on this screen after trying to do a factory reset:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I rooted to S off, and have been using TWRP to flash; the previous ROM was NuSenseven's. I decided to switch to a Venom, which was a premature idea, since Verizon hasn't gone to Marshmallow yet. So I flashed a 4.6.1 ROM, and that started issues. (Going from Marshmallow ROM to a Lollipop ROM?) BTW, I have a trouble ticket on Venom's page also.
I did a factory reset, to see if I could get back, and this is what I am stuck on. I can browse the device on a PC, but I no longer have ADK access, since I am at work.
TWRP can't seem to find the previous backup, although I can see it. (The SD Card was formatted during the factory reset) I don't know enough to be useful, just enough to be dangerous. I would like to revert back to the NuSenseven, or anything to get past this white screen. My next try will be to access an ADK computer, so I can install the updated firmware, if I can't get TWRP to find the backup file.
Thanks for any and all help,

I was able to recover, I did a factory reset in TWRP rather than using the wipe/ factory reset in bootloader. I have my phone back now.
Now if I can figure out this SD card issue.
Take it easy,

Hey,
Yeah usually flashing a different OS version on top of each other is a no no. Especially going downwards is shooting a bullet through your phones OS.
Best practice: Wipe/factory reset, wipe cache/dalvik, wipe system, then flash the new ROM you want. (after you back up everything of course, and TWRP backup too if you're unsure)
In terms of SD card, you can try easeus mobisaver for android. Its a free program to attempt to recovery deleted files off an SD card. You may get some.. Results aren't guaranteed, but I've had some luck in the past. I believe the free version lets you recover one file at a time. Can try that and see where it gets you.
Here's a further update on the HTC One M8 and my specific issue. I suggest googling "Android Marshmallow and adoptable storage". In my process of flashing different ROMs, one time I formatted my external SD card as "internal storage". (More is better, right?) Unfortunately this creates issues for those who are rooted and flashing ROMs using TWRP. This may have created a "bootloop" issue? But this article's method to fix bootloop issues is what I ended up doing:
http://wccftech.com/fix-sd-card-as-internal-memory-on-android-6-issues/
From what I have read, it is much better to just format your external SD card, (HTC M8's are still devices that have those) as "removable storage" rather than as "internal storage". Sometimes it's hard to find a solution to your problem, if you don't know what you don't know
Here's a few posts and articles: (The more you read, the more you know)
