Gt-I9000
Firmware 2.3.5
Baseband. I9000xxjpk
Kernel. 2.6.35.7.
Build number. Gingerbread.xxjvt
The screen does not go into sleep mode
I have tried different screen timeout times
It does not turn off when briefly pressing the power button
I've done the factory reset, several times, no change
I've had this phone for years and don't really want to get a new one.
Is there a way to fix this please?

Good luck!

I am getting frustrated:/

3 days back i noticed that no matter how many times i press the power button on my HTC Touch Pro(Vodafone) the back light wont go off.If i keep on pressing it a power off message would appear asking me should i switch off my phone.By changing the power settings i had set it to Turn off the backlight after 30 secs(If not used).Which helped but the problem remains the same,after the backlight goes off it wont come back no matter how many times i press the power button:/.
It would only come back by sliding the Qwerty,as a result the Phone despite of the fact being turned off is using power and my phone dies off after 3 hours or so:S.I tried resetting it by Clearing the Storage(7 times) but it didn't help.After i which i opted to Hard reset it by holding down the Vol & Enter button and then pressing the rest using Stylus,but no matter how many times i try it the stupid Vodafone startup screen would appear and it would not(Tried it when the phone was on).the phone simply wont shut down,i tried by pulling off the batter,but once the battery is in it would start all by itself:/(In this way i cant hard reset the phone while it is off:/:/).How can i hard reset it??Somebody please help me!!!!
P.S:I have unlocked the phone so that i can use it in here.
Sounds really weird... maybe you can try executing task29 and flash a new rom....
but I'm not sure...

Do you mean HardSPL? You could try flashing a stock ROM to the device after putting it in bootloader (hold volume down and press reset, keep holding volume down until you get the tricolour screen).
This thread should really be in the 'General' section...
@Ben
Sorry mate i am a new user of this forum so didn't knew in which section should i place this thread, apologies for that.
From where would i find a stock ROM and how would i flash it(Procedure in detail)?And after flashing this stock ROM would i be able to restore everything using Sprite backup?
Thanks in advance!!
Follow this guide if it's your first time, and as long as you've already backed your data up (which you should have if you were doing a hard reset anyway) then you should be fine with Sprite.

Go to the HTC website and download an original ROM from their support page.
Oh and when flashing back to stock, make sure you flash stock rom/radio first, before you remove HardSPL (see guide one post above)

Unfortunately the ROM available on HTC's(3.27.4.3) website is not supported by my phone(The text field after verifying my S/N number prompted that the ROM is not suitable for my phone).What should i do now?Shall i take the risk and give it a go??My only concern is that i don't want to end up with a locked phone after a ROM flash:/
P.S:Apologies for bad grammar.
My phone is Vodafone HTC Touch Pro GSM(Unlocked)
just give it a go. and flash it. you cant really even brick these phones. so your not losing anything. even flash a rom without the sprite backup built in. you can always get the cab
Download rom from sunnysoft, there's no Serial number check in there.
maybe your power button is broken like mine!

I doubt it as he can still power off by holding the button down. Sounds like a software problem to me... Is it the same for you with regards to powering off?

[Q] battery issue

my phone radomly freezes and wont turn on until i hold the power button for 5 seconds should i odin i have refalshed roms and tried diffrent roms any help thanks in advance
When your phone freezes the only way out of a frozen screen is the power button, cwm, or taking out your battery method... this thread is alled "battery issues" so I'm assuming to fix the probem you have to get a new battery.. but from the information you posted id advise you to try a new rom or odin bck to stock and see if the problem consist.. if it does not consist something went wrong with rom installing, if it does buy a new battery

Wrong section.
Please re-explain what you mean. Are you bricked? Use better English please.
Thread moved to General.
I also have this problem. My tab got drained so when I got home, I plugged in the charger to the tab. Then I pressed the power button. So the tab opened but it hangs when the SAMSUNG logo is on the screen. I tried to wait it out for around 10mins but nothing happened, it remained in the SAMSUNG logo. So I tried holding the power button for 15secs to reboot but when it rebooted, the tab still hangs in the SAMSUNG logo.
Please help. I just bought this tab 3days ago. It is not rooted and so far I have installed only around 10 apps and games all from the market. Im not sure what caused this problem.
check in the development section under official firmwares post. there are official firmwares and instructions for odin. try to charge up battery as much as possible. a failed Odin flash could be a perma-brick. If you have Kies , I think there is an emergency software recovery option as well.

thanks for the reply dude. so im gonna have to flash this tab. i checked the instructions and all is good except for the ROM to use. there are 2 ROMs posted for the P6200. Im not sure which one i should use. I bought my tab here in Manila. All i know is that its a P6200 3g tab. Could i just pick anyone from the two?
The KK5 is the original firmware that the p-6200 came with . If you install that, as soon as you run it, it should be giving you the notification that an update is available . There will be 2 incremental upgrades and you will end up with KL1.
Or you can directly download the KL1 .

thanks dude! anyway im still thinking if i should flash this now or just bring it to Samsung for service. im afraid that if i flashed this, Samsung might say that ive been tinkering with it.
Before venturing yourself into flashing the stock rom why don't you try a factory reset from the recovery menu :
Turn off the tablet
Press at the same time the power button and the volume up button
As soon as you see the galaxy logo release the power button but keep the volume up pressed until the recovery menu pop up
Select the factory reset option using the volume button and confirm with the power button
I am pretty sure that it will fix your problem
Let me know how it goes

thanks dude!! the problem was fixed after the factory reset.
im still wondering though what caused the problem. ill probably try draining the battery again to see if this problem reoccurs.
thanks again!!!
successfully done p 6200
Hi all. I've had the same problem last month. My P6200's battery got drained and was kind of in a boot loop. I didn't know how to do a factory reset then so I looked online for a Samsung Service Center here in the Philippines. I was advised that my device was not covered by International Warranty as I bought it outside of the Philippines (I got mine in India) as only Samsung cameras have have international coverage. The guy still tried to flash it, however, it did not fix the problem. Now it just boot loops to the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus and does not reach the Samsung logo that it used to go to after that.
I'm trying to reset my tab but pressing and holding the power and volume up buttons don't work. Please advise what I can do. I don't want this device to go to waste.
Many Thanks!
ive also had the same problem duno wut to do anymore
Had bootloop problem too
Download Odin and the appropriate firmware for your region then flash it via Odin(turn off tab,press volum down and power until you go in download mode then connect the tab to pc,click pda on Odin,click start,wait to flash)
Good luck
i had the same problem before, when i restart my tab, it was stuck at samsung logo, i wait for 15m but still the same and then i connect to my laptop.
amazingly, kies can detect my tab, so i did backup, suddenly samsung logo disappeared and enter homescreen. maybe around 15m more after i connect to my laptop.
my suspect was the ADW laucher because there's no problem before i installed adw launcher and set it as default launcher.

Galaxy S2 not booting to recovery or download mode

I am a novice. Please excuse if my forum etiquette is not upto the mark
Issues:
1. Phone not booting into recovery or download mode
2. USB Jig not working as well.
3. When turning on from power off, skips Samsung boot screen as well as ROM boot animation and directly opens home screen.
Background:
Followed instructions on this thread to get rid of yellow triangle (As far as I know, followed instructions to the dot) :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354888
Ever since, I face the three issues listed above.

Thanks for your response, Aramil:
I've tried multiple times to:
1. Boot to recovery mode - Black screen, only the two soft buttons light up.
2. Boot to download mode - Black screen, only the two soft buttons light up.
3. Turn off phone and connect USB Jig - No response.
4. Removed battery and then replaced it while simultaneously pressing volume down+middle key+power on - No Response.
SOLVED!!
Alrighty. I solved it myself!!
After more than a week of very limited help from members, I stumbled upon the solution to this issue.
The problem was with the bootloader. I flashed a stock bootloader, and all my issues were fixed!!
Thanks to those who attempted to help!!
Any suggestions on how I can get more people to post replies? Almost 200 people saw my post, but just Aramil replied! I must say I felt a bit letdown by the community. Anyways, Thanks Aramil!

no recovery or download modes and irregular bootup
I have this trouble also and think it is a bootloader problem. Rinuvimal says problem solved by flashing a stock bootloader. How is that done please?
My problem is:
1. I think it started when I bought a USB jig. To use this I needed to flash an old bootloader which I did through Odin.
2. Now I cannot access CWM by using up volume, home and power buttons. Nor can I access download mode using down volume, home and power.
3. Inserting the usb jig does not now load the download mode screen.
4.From off, when I press power, it does not go through usual boot process (nothing showing on screen) but after the soft key lights come on I seem to have booted up and can then use phone as normal.
My settings show Android 4.0.3, Baseband Version i9100BVKJ4, Kernel version i9100XXLP6-CL72050 and Build number lidroid-resurrection remix ics 9.4 black edition by westcrip XXLPH.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem please?

[Q] Phone isn't turning on

Hey, guys!
First post from me in this forum, although I have been searching for some things for some times.
So, the problem is that I had Cyanogenmod 7.2 on my LG P500 for couple months. And ROM was working ok, but there was some problems and I thought I should get back to stock ROM, because actually it was working better and smoother. So, I searched for stock roms for my phone, found one and started to flash. Everything flashed well, phone booted up and then wave of errors started to come. So I thought that it ain't gonna be usable and tried to install a stock rom through official LG Updater, which obviously wasn't a good thing to do. everything, downloaded, installed, phone booted up and I was waiting with hope that it will boot up (android loading screen at least was showing), but it didn't happen. After that I managed to power phone off with getting battery out and then I tried to fix everything with one tutorial I saw in this forum with kdz updater. but at the begging it couldn't connect with my phone and after that screen showd Emergency Mode. nothing I could do, again took out battery to power it off and now phones doesn't show any signs of life.
What does it mean (maybe my phones is same as brick) and what should I do?
I would appreciate your help.

Plug in the wall charger for about an hour, and then try the buttons - press power button+ volume up button + back button together
keep pressed all three for long duration (maybe 8-10 secs you see yellow screen with written Emergency Mode). Then you are in Emergency Mode.
If no screen yet, then bricked - only LG repair center option.
