I've been using Embryo for quite awhile now and its been great! Unfortunately the only thing that does not seem to work on my phone is the power menu. I've reflashed Embryo 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 4.0 to no avail. I've been trying to figure out as to why my power menu does not seem to work but i've come up to no conclusion...
Anyone know the source of my problem?
ur efs is corrupt, I almost guarantee it. See my sticky tread with the fixes in general section

Ok I have rooted and flashed a rom on my Thunderbolt and still having the reboot issue. It is still rebooting about 5 to 6 times a day. Does anyone know what that could be? Thanks Gary
The site search does. MR1 has a reboot issue.
it is an issue with the mr1 radio like "adrynalyne" said. the Search feature on this site works great please learn to use it there are a ton of threads about this problem already. Simply update your radio to the mr2 or mr2.5 versions from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154010
after that your should be good to go. I have been running mr2.5 on BAMF 3.0 rc4 and been working great.
Need to know how to upgrade your radio? Download it. Rename it PG05IMG and put on your sd card. Hold volume down key and power button to get into hboot. Will ask to update ,hit yes it will upgrade , hit power key to reboot.
I have installed eaglesblood v1.6 on my phone, i had cm7 nightly before, it looks gorgeous and amazing, but why doesn't the home key work? When i press it nothing happens, i have to use the back key to close and app and go to homescreen. Are there any setting where i can change the behaviour of home key or something? ALL OF GUYS at XDA are awesome?
p.s.: i was scared of bricking my phone, but after reading the directions on this site and trying people's wonderful work, this rooting thing has me Hooked...

This will probably be moved to Q&A section.
But to answer your question. Open up Rom Manager, scroll down and do fix permissions. Should get everything back to normal.
you should've posted this question in the thread of the ROM you are using, just a heads up. tell us how you did the procedure (wiping and what didn't you wipe, custom kernel, any of these things need to be said in the original post for you to get an answer.) Oh and did you try to do a reboot, or fix permissions?
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

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.
I just installed UCLD2 Smooth ICE 5.0 followed his instructions and I like the Rom, but I have an issue. My home button and search button do not work at all. I've gone into the settings to see if there is anything to change what the buttons do, but I've found nothing.
Does anyone know what could be causing this? Or what I can do to fix it.
I had the same issue with flashing sky is. I did a nandroid recovery, then reflashed the whole thing and allowed the system to settle longer than the suggested 5 minutes. It works great now. Buttons are fine.

Well as it turns out that was only one of a myriad of problems, I may or may not have permanantly bricked my phone. I let the system settle, but now the screen isn't very responsive when I try to do anything on it. I also tried returning to stock, and have had the same problems.
I don't have any idea what happened, but it seems to be like a kernel problem.

If it turns on then its far from bricked. What was your method of returning to stock?

There's been way too much of this nonsense recently. You don't even know what a brick is. All the new guys need to stop flashing everything they can get their hands on. Stop and read before you do this stuff to your phone. I read for almost a whole month, everything I could find before doing anything. Before I even flashed anything, I had everything needed to fix and return to stock, and made sure I completely understood what I was doing. Read and understand before you break stuff so you can fix it!

When most of us first installed the leak the fix was to install it again with the 1 click or factory reset.... Are you coming from stock gb or stock ics leak?
Edit: nrm and dx you guys crack me up

I didn't flash whatever I could get my hands on thank you. I flashed NexusMod 4.3 Nexus UI first about a week and a half ago. Then I wanted to try and get something a little more like stock, but still ICS so after READING ALL THE INFORMATION on the post for ICS Smoothie v2 I flashed it after wiping data, cache, and dalvik and following the instructions regarding an ICS radio which I had not followed previously with Nexus Mod when I flashed it. Then the problems started.
There is no lockscreen even when the phone decides to work. When I start up the phone. Process.google.acore force closes as does process.google.gapps
Also when I unlock the phone the screen will respond to 1 maybe 2 swipes to find a homescreen then it'll hang.
I used ODIN to return to stock following the instructions on the Stickied post about doing so in the Development section. Also I'm sorry if some of what I said comes off rude I've just been trying to fix this for about 4 days with no luck and I really need some help.
Also I would've responded sooner, but it's finals week at my college so I've only got so much time.
Also I apologize for calling it a brick even though it was not. I do know what a brick is. It's when your device is unresponsive and will not turn on or do anything. It'a a paperweight or a brick.
I was freaking out my bad. I am sort of seasoned I was rooting my HTC Inspire when I got it almost a year ago, and I put ICS on it when the first leaks started coming out. I'm sorry I'm new to this phone. I will be getting better trust me. I just need some time to get used to the different quirks involved in this phone compared to my last one.

My suggestion still stands use the ics leak 1 click then root see how you like stock ics twiz if you want a more custom rom then goto cwm and wipe cache , factory reset, then in mounts wipe sys, wipe cache and wipe data do all of these 3 times before installing rom and kernel always let.it sit a few minutes to settle....

Ok I'm sorry for causing all of these issues I think I found a solution. In the General section and since I can't post links it is entitled:
[FIX] No Power Menu, No Lockscreen, Corrupt Efs FIX! Skyrocket and T989
Sorry I didn't look in General before posting this in Q&A the General section in the HTC Inspire forum wasn't usually gonna have fixes in it maybe root methods, but not fixes for stuff like this.

What radio did you flash?
I did realize I had done it wrong I flashed this: ATT-GALAXY-NOTE UCLC5 radio
but it was the one located in the post for Embryo 2.2 and I didn't flash the embryo rom, so the radio file which Mohan made specifically for his rom didn't go over well with the rom I flashed.
I did get back to stock eventually. It just took a few tries and the efs fix. I'm now putting CWM touch back on my phone and flashing a Gingerbread Rom because ICS on our phone is still a little too iffy for my likeing. I'll probably just wait till Samsung releases source for the kernel and cook my own rom.

I see, the note modem corrupts the efs partition. Glad you read some things and got it fixed!
I came across a similar problem in the forums with a different samsung model, but the trouble there does not seem to be quite as persistent as my issue. Or at least, no one has posted follow ups in that thread.
I bought the phone on ebay, rooted, and unlocked and it worked for me for a few months beautifully. Then, one day it started acting weird. Programs would randomly crash, or reboot the phone. Rebooting helped for awhile, then didn't help and most of the programs became mostly unusable. One day, the phone hung while booting and I had to force it to shut down, and when it finally loaded properly the screen had reset to factory setup and the home button wouldn't work. Also the wireless had turned off and the date/time setting had changed. Plugging in to the computer using Kies fixed the home button problem, but the trouble with all my apps got worse. And the Tab would crash or reboot (and hang on reloading) even when I wasn't using it. Clearing the caches did not help at all.
I did a factory reset/data wipe (I've done a few now, actually), and that seems to fix the problem for a day or two, then the phone will hang on booting and the screen will have reset. The phone is rooted, but running the original Froyo 2.2 ROM.
Has anyone else run into this problem? I can't return it at this point, and am loathe to replace it since it works properly *most* of the time. I'd like to think this is fixable...and that *I* can fix it (with a little guidance). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
The SGT 7.7 originally released with 3.2 GB firmware (no Froyo).
Providing you have no partitions corrupted;
Have a read of the forum stickies and upgrade to a newer official Samsung Android version using Odin. All the guidance you need is able to search, read, and follow instructions etc
You also have choice of other ROMs found in the development section.
1. Custom ICS ROM (Samsung base) stable and working
2. Custom JB ROMs - some features may/may not work, check the thread

For latest official firmware Odin flashable, check;
samsung-updates.com
or
sammobile.com
Just extract so you have the tar file and flash with Odin. Guides and stickies will tell you how.
Custom ROMs will require a custom recovery, so before flashing custom ROM, make a nandroid backup from within the recovery menu. I personally use TWRP (touch) which is straight forward and easy to use and install. CWM recovery cab be flashed via Odin and requires more use of the volume keysto navigate and power to select.
From power off state:
Download mode = power + volume down (keep pressed until DL mode)
Recovery = power + volume up (keep pressed.. .. .)
Best of luck

Thanks for the suggestion, although full disclosure: I realized after following up on the first response to my original post, that I put this in the wrong forum. I have a Samsung GT-P1000, not a 7.7, and this seems to make things a bit trickier. Especially since I can't seem to get a official firmware upgrade from Samsung (US doesn't show as available country). And I can't dial as I use this only as a tablet with Wifi.
I'll try one of the custom ROMs though, and see if that helps.
