[Q] Galaxy S wont start after lag fix

Hello,
Im running Froyo on my Galaxy S. And recently I tried to install ryanZA's one click lag fix. When doing this it said its rebooting and finalizing but the phone turned off and when starting it stops at Galaxy S welcome screen and start vibrating time to time after that. Screen disappears but the phone keeps on vibrating time to time.
The reason I was trying to install this was my notification bar, it gets stuck most of the time and I was trying to get rid of that. In most places I read that its a memory issue and the lag fix would fix it if it was installed.
I installed the one click lag fix from the market, it needed rooting. then again from most of the suggestions I installed z4 root on the phone. It worked.
And while I was trying to apply the one click lag fix and it rebooted, it wont boot. welcome screen comes and goes, and after half an hour its till vibrating with 20 second interval.
Please help me, im very scared that I bricked my phone.
What can I do to fix this?

You need ODIN. here---->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821625 (only works with windows OS) You need samsung drivers installed.
You need to get into download mode. Hold down both volume buttons and plug in usb cable(while cable is plugged into computer), that should get you into download mode.
If you can get into download mode, and odin recognizes your phone, download these files here--->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475 and put them in their respective places.
Hit start and done, let the phone reboot.
Try looking around here something in here might help you out if you get stuck. http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=708
**Edit these files are only for the Vibrant SGH-T959**

Hello, thanks for your reply. I see what you mean by this, but do I really want :
T959 (US T-Mobile version of the Galaxy S)?
Mine simply is not this - bought it unlocked in UK as Galaxy S.
Will it be the same?
thanks

Hey mate, please confirm this :/ Im seeing lots of different stuff as I'm googling around.
Not sure what to do, someone please help

Ok reset to factory settings from the recovery screen.
all Data lost but at least its working.
;(

Oh wow sorry, I didn't even notice that you never mentioned vibrant. Dont try to flash those files it will probably mess up your phone.
Glad you got it working.

NOT only got it working =, but after extensive research I installed speedMod kernel, that will probably solve all my problems.
Thanks tho.

Ok, I will Assume you have a I9000 Galaxy S phone. That is the European phone
You will need to Odin back or use Heimdall to get back to Stock, 2.1 variety of some sorts. Check the development and general section in the I9000 forum. You will get all the info and files needed to accomplish this.
Then Once you have it back to stock 2.1 , then root the phone/ Then Download Rom manager. From there you will be able to do anything you want to the phone.
Do not use Ryanza lagfix use Voodoo it is preferred for this phone over all others. Also, All the new Custom Roms usually have it pre-installed already.
You will need the following files:
Samsung drivers for the computer
Stock 2.1 Tar File
Pit 512 (this is for mapping) file
Odin 1.7 or higher
After you are in stock Then you can then root/ download rom-mgr/ then flash any Custonm rom of your choice (Like Darky's9.3, etc)
Good luck
Cheers

Thank you.
The problem has been solved by going into recovery mode and doing a factory reset. All DATA has been sacrificed.
Then i flashed it with speedMod kernel. Its much better now.
Thanks for the reply anyway.

[Q] samsung galaxy stellar sch 1200

Hey! from my phone, it freezes on the samsung image when is boots up. It stays there forever. I'm pretty sure it is bricked. I rooted my phone, then tried to install some kind of font switch that is required for a root phone. After that it told me to restart my phone, did exactly that, and now my phone is stuck on the samsung logo screen. I have odin, and now im just looking for a stock rom for it. I did a factory reset, but that didnt work either. Can anybody help me?

oh yea... its for verizon by the way.

Did you install the verizon update manager? You should be able to do a repair. As for the stock Rom we are working on that right now.
Oh and you can follow us on these sites so you can keep up with what we're doing with the phone:

WELL... thanks. And no i didn't install the verizon update manager.. What's that? And please let me know as soon as the stock ROM comes out or any word of it,... or yea... hahaha. im really stuck on it. I really wish things could work out.

You'll find the Verizon Update Manager at the 13th post of the 2nd link I posted here. You'll also need a Dropbox account.

Before you do that, however, can you get into recovery mode? Hold down the home button, VOL Up, and the power button to enter into recovery mode.
If you cannot enter recovery mode, please be patient as we try to get a stock ROM uploaded.
You also can help us. Since your phone is rooted, you can make a backup of the stock recovery if it still works. If you're familiar with ADB you should try looking at the last post of my link: you'll see a command there to extract the recovery.

well i can.. i can get into recovery mode. Thats how i tried the factory reset... and it didn't work. I am currently at school... so ill try to do the ADB command this weekend. I was looking at that post earlier. but.. as i said before, but my phone won't fully turn on. It's stuck at the "samsung" logo. that's where it stops. Just curious is the Verizon update manager the same as VZAccess Manager? And the link on the post its the bootstrap helper.exe... that one am i correct?

Verizon has several names for its features but I do belive the VZ Access manager is different. I just pulled up the app and found that it's actually callied "Verizon Upgrade Assistant"...which really means "kiss your custom rooted ROM goodbye" in the future when everything works well.
I have someone trying to upload a stock ROM and I'll get back to you when you can download the ROM. My phone's bricked as well so all I can do is sit, wait, and gather information. I've been without this blasted phone for nearly two weeks so don't feel too bad; you're not alone.
I appreciate the help you can give for the recovery option as if we all can get some stock ROMs extracted, the REAL devs can start having fun with this phone...hopefully we will too.

[Q] G2x STUCK ON S/W UPGRADE SCREEN

Ok, I have been on this for several days now searching with no success.My phone was running perfectly until i decided to update it using the LG mobile software updater.After that things went down hill. My phone is stuck on the " S/W upgrade please wait while upgrading..." screen. I tried several steps posted by others but no luck what so ever. I was able to get ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0 on the phone thinking that it would help because the stock recovery menu would just lead me back to that screen when I tried to do the hard reset. I flashed Roms on it following the exact instructions and when i reboot it still goes back to that screen.The only steps that i couldnt follow threw with was the Clean Batch Internal SD format for some reason. I went into APX mode and ran the flash.bat file but nothing would pop up leading me to believe that i did something wrong or something I dont know.
Can anyone help?
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP I LOVE MY G2X!

Have you tried this method? It seems help many people.

[Q] HELP HELP HELP!!!! with Verizon S3

Hi everyone I am a newbie when it comes to rooting phone and installing a Roms, I recently rooted my S3 and everything went smooth except my WIFI did not work so after so research it seemed as if I did not do it correctly but i followed all the steps. So i decided to try a new Rom I put the Rom on my S3 rebooted into recovery and wiped the phone and the cache as well. I then loaded the Rom that I downloaded from XDA and showed to work with my S3. I used Clean ROM 5.6 and I am sure I jacked something up. Well after I went through the install it went back to my recovery screen and looked like it was asking me to update my sd zip file or something so I updated it and restarted my phone. I am now getting the message "System software not authorized by verizon Wireless has been found on your phone". I thought that the SU privileges were removed or somehow the phone became unrooted so I tried to re-root my S3 and everything shows to go through successful but I cannot get passed this screen, I can get to download mode but i cannot get to recovery at all, I am not sure what I jacked up but its jacked. Any help would be greatly appreciated very much Thanks.

so you say that you cannot open your recovery? try pressing home button, volume up, and power button all at once. try this, if it does not work,i have some more
tricks up my sleeve!!

PLEASE HELP! Tablet shows black screen at startup and then hangs, no boot BRICKED

Hi thanks for reading, I will tell you as quick as I can
Basically I got this Allwinner A31 Tablet Q102 and wanted to root it and flash it when I got it, so I got it only a week ago, week ago from tommorow.
I managed to root it with VRoot and then attempted to install CWM because ROM Manager would say that it isnt supported. So after tons of research I took the method of rooting an Onda tablet which was to use the ADB. I got the Recovery.tar extracted the files inside it and then did the
adb push /data/recovery.img
And stuff like that
After I did all that it told me to hold the VOL+/POWER to enter CWM, I held it for like 1 minute until CWM showed and it was working. CWM version was 6.0.2.7 I think. So I was like oh ok its working now. So then I rebooted the system using the first option CWM gave me. After it turned off it didnt turn back on. So I turned it on manually and all I see is a blank BLACK screen. Thats it. It hangs and does nothing. Cant enter Recovery, safe mode, the USB is not recognized. Infact it doesnt even connect anymore.
If I hold the power button, it turns off then once I let go it turns back on doing the same thing.
Please help me as I only just got the Tablet and can't afford to lose it. Theres too many files I need to keep, only some were moved to the SD card.

Hi, thanks for the replay, the business wouldnt replace it but they offered to have a look, I know its bricked so there is no point sending it there. I hear you can fix it in Phoenix Suite but I cant find the firmware for it.
Btw what should it be in, I had trouble sorting it lol

Took ages to find out, but its called an Allwinner Q102 something with YBC, Ive heard of a similar one called Allwinner A31s Yonestoptech and was also a Q102

Hey,
What's up with your tablet? I own the same model and was thinking about installing cyanogenmod, but I have no idea yet. Have you managed to figure something out, or found any way to repair it?
Cheers!

flash ??
Try to flash the stock ROM.......

Nah man, I can't do anything with it. Turn it on just a black screen. Holding the volume down button then pressing Tue power button a couple of times makes my computer detect the tablet. But nothing else.
I cannot enter CWM, after I flashed CWM it said Can't mount boot.IMG can't Mount this and that and then I restarted it and it happened.
SO DONT FLASH ANY CWM OR ROMS ON IT.
I really want the tablet fixed man. What the hell do I do?

@addy187a - Did you get it done?
I have the same problem.... - I installed successfully twrp, did a backup, wiped and tried to install another rom - failed. Now I am not able to boot into recovery - it is black, not recognized by the system (so I can't use imageburntool).
It starts, is black illuminated, nothing happens, only power is possible
my device: Fusion5 F5CS 32GB, Q102, 32GB
..no idea what to do...

Hey, I know I'm 1 year late to reply but I only just logged in to XDA since ages! I know right? Anyway, the way I fixed it was to download the firmware for the tablet which I found out by keeping a note about tablet model number (Settings> About device> Model) and spent a couple minutes searching for the firmware for it. Then I used Phoenix suite or just Phoenix can't remember what it was called to flash the tablet. There are plenty of YouTube videos and instructions on the web of how to use it, I can't remember how I did it as this was over a year and a half ago! It's as simple as that and words cannot describe how relieved I felt after reviving it. If an admin sees this, please close the thread. I'm still finding out how to use this site.
