[GT-I9003] personal Experiments about Stock Roms

Here you can post anything about your personal problems and solution you have found for them in I9003 Stock roms

Bluetooth A2DP collision with mobile AP
As you know both bluetooth and wifi uses the same frequency (ISM bands)
but in stock rom KA4 when you use mobile AP as you are listening to music via A2DP , The wireless range of bluetooth headset gets limited to approx 1 meter and when you try disconnect and reconnect it won't connect easily .
I have no Idea what the cuase of this problem is .it may be channel collison or something like this .any one had this problem ?

stock rom is working here without problems , but the rom is slow .. i compare the i9003 with my 2th device=i9000 with custom rom (simply honey) , i9000 is much better than the i9003 that come with stock froyo .

first of all make sure your device is on usb debuging mode and then make sure you installed kies(because it installs needed drivers automaticaly) and use superoneclick from the link I provided below.note that I think your problem is due to lack of your device drivers.

in my own case... it happens from time to time... once or twice a week.
the problem's that it usually hangs up when i'm sleeping (and charging my device, that could be what causes it), so the alarm won't work!!
and always after that, you have to take off the battery in order to turn on the phone again.

Good buddy, next time you can help some body with the same trouble.

Read it all here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411768

^^ as per what i read, this must be corrupt internal memory and only way out is replace motherboard.
Before you leave for the service center, have a cuppa coffee, and try flashing xxkpe using odin 1.83 and see if that works. Make sure you follow the guide for xxkpe.

After flashing KPE, can you go into the stock recovery?

I am really confused. Why people are suddely facing this type of error?? I am still sure that it should be software issue.

I had a similar issue just some weeks ago. I figured out that
1. my volume keys are a little worn out so I had to remove the back cover.
2. Try to remove your battery and wait one night. Then try to start in download mode again.
It worked for me, although I thought I bricked my phone.
Fingers cross.
Cheers

If you have tried what this guy above me had posted and still didn't work.. perhaps using a USB JIG might be useful? If you dont have one, you can borrow one near you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869494:)
Hope this helps,

Hard reset will surely help. I had once got my phone bricked, then hard reset worked.
Hold the small reset button besides the camera on the back side of the phone with a pin, then enter download mode, the phone will boot up into download mode. Then flash a stock rom and your phone will be working again.

i tried all and no download mode...gave it to service centre..my baby's still in warranty so hopefully samsung will not charge me. missing u all guys will b back soon. noobs watch out!!:silly:

Ok so I got my phone back good as new...n within warranty too!! They changed the motherboard.
so does changing the motherboard change anything?? Or can I flash like before?? can the new motherboard be different? Thanks

have you tried to see if its loud on loud speaker could be a dodgy ear piece speaker

Loud speaker is ok. Headset is ok. I tried many roms. Reaper. Cm7. Official ics rooted. And few others. This happened when I installed fallout 5. The version before was fine. I tried to reinstall that but sound remains low. I even asked a colleague to listen...maybe I went deaf ...I guess I ll reinstall the stock Rom and send it to warranty..

Have you tried wiping everything? (every partition except sd ) And flashing some of the previous working (loud ) roms?

I did full wipe before each rom install.. nothing... , I use the phone with a bt hands free for the moment.

Have you tried different radio?

the volume is now normal , I have no idea what happened. I had to change the sim so I closed the phone changed the sim and after the sound was normal. I rebooted after each rom install but didn't tried to pull out the battery before.

And is gone... Today sound is low again no reason ...
Sent from my HTC Desire S using Tapatalk 2

could be just a bad signal? maybe you are worrying too much? happened to me as well, i thought it was the radio or rom, but it turns out my phone is fine. But if you do have ur warranty just go ahead and send for a check up, maybe your issue could be hardware related.

i repair phone and i think that the problem is the speaker

Buddy It is sad to see you facing problem with your device. Can you tell exactly what's your problem. What I understand from your post is whenever you remove your battery and plug it back your mobile is not turning on. You have to keep it off for 1 day before you can turn it on successfully. Is that what you are trying to say buddy?

I was using official rom not rooted one till yesterday.
I installed ICS yesterday guessing that it would solve the problem but the problem remains same & it became worst than ever before.
I am going to install the original firmware once again but I am not getting the proper link to download it. Could you please just give me the link to download ginger bread 2.3.6 for the Saudi Arabian Region?
& I think there must be a problem in boot sector. Whenever I remove the battery and plug it back to it, it takes time to turn it on at least 10 to 24 hours.
One more thing my laptop is detecting the mobile even my mobile is turn off.

mic not working after flashing rom

I flashed a couple new JB roms after being on CM9 RC2 for a long time and now my microphone isn't working correctly. When making a phone call, I can hear the other person but they can't hear me. I've tried wiping the phone, cache and dalvik, even doing a nandroid backup didn't fix the issue. Any fixes?

What rom and radio are you on? I'm guessing you flashed a cm 10.1 and you're not using ucmc1 radio.

I had flashed CM10.1 first, but had issues (probably because I didn't upgrade the radio) and have flashed a few different ones trying to get my mic working again, (CM10, CM9.1, Superlite JB) nothing has fixed the microphone problem. It's not just in phone calls too, if I try to do a voice search, it acts like there is signal from the microphone, but then says "please speak into the microphone" and will not do anything. I tried updating the radio to ucmc1, but that did not fix it

It looks like I can get calls to work in speaker phone, just not regularly, but I rarely ever use speaker phone

It's sounding like a hardware issue if you tried all those different roms.

It only happened after I changed roms, which makes me believe that caused the issue. Also, if i have my mouth right on the mic, I can barely hear myself on the other end, so maybe it's a mic gain issue

Update: the phone works fine on speaker phone, but that is through a different mic than the handset mic. If anyone has a solution please let me know, otherwise I'll be getting a new phone

OK I have done all the research still could not find a fix and now I'm in a terrible position n desperately need help.
I had a rooted rom and my Mic stopped working (I.e : the person on the other end cannot hear me even if I shout but of I turn my loudspeaker on they can hear me but not on the headset) I did a master reset reflashed the rom but nothing changed. On the forum somewhere it.was.mentioned to go back to stock and try I have done that aswell.
Now I am on stock 2.3.6..baseband Ucmc1, kernal 2.6.35.11, build : gingerbread uckj2.
The main problem
1. I cannot Odin because my USB port seems to have a problem on connecting to the PC it starts charging but does not get recognised (does not let me enter dload mode)
2. Since now I am on stock I do not have cwm on me obviously and cannot dload untill i use Odin which I cannot or root my phone.
3. I did try rooting from z4root, gingerbreak, framaroot, universal androot and exynos abuse but nothing seems to be working. Either the done.hangs or shows me a msg saying trying to root and starts heating up checking even after 40 mind was on the same screen.n.not rooted.
4. Only exynos abuse gave me an error saying "it seems your firmware is not exploitable at all" adding icing to the burnt cake. On further research it was explained the device does not get rooted when the kernal panics or has a bug.
I do not know what to do or how to fix it especially when i don't have cwm.
Need help..... ue asisstance is appreciated !
