Just flashed cognition and com.android.phone crashes constantly

[rastanthology]

Well I just got my cappy today. I decided to install froyo, I went with cognition.


So i rooted, installed Rom manager, backed up. Installed Titanium backup. Backed up everything i didn't knew what it was. Installed cognition.

After this when it loaded it keeps giving me this error constantly and lagging the phone. Since its my first android phone I'm not sure what to do. I didn't restored anything with Titanium, though I'm not sure if this program does this automatically...

I cleared user data and cache and the error persists.

I'm currently on Ubuntu on my pc so odin is not an option. So I want to have the phone working fast, preferrably with froyo, should i download another rom and reflash with rom manager? Any ideas on what I've done wrong or why the error is displayed?

I'm very thankfull for any sort of help, premature answers are more than welcomed

Either try to get odin to work with ubuntu... Wine?

Find someone with windows PC and odin.

Dual boot xp / 7 and do it yourself

First this is NOT the area for questions per se this is for DEVELOPMENT.
I suggest you try in the General or Q&A section or in this case the Cognition thread since that is the one having issues for you.
Without ODIN I cannot recommend anything so I suggest you try the Cognition thread amigo.
Regards

Just removed my simcard and the error stopped

Does this mean the phone is no longer unlocked?


I bought the phone unlocked so I'm not sure how to restore it to the way it was. Should the unlock code still be somewhere over my phone internal memory? Any quick ideas on how to do this? Or should i look into the whole unlocking post on froyo?

Check out this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=778609. It involves setting up a VM(virtual machine) but that is a very easy task. I hope you find this helpful. But do not flash over Cog. You need to use Odin, flash back to stock, do a master clear and then re-flash Cog via CWM.

You prob's flashed Cognition right after the reboot forced by ClockworkRecovery, so the media scan wasn't completed, phone freaked and just lost most of its powarrrr.

Oh yeah: wrong subforum...

 

[rastanthology]

Sorry about the subforum btw

That sounds logic. Any ideas on what should I do so I can make the phone stop giving me this error with my simcard inside?

 

[rastanthology]

btw i dont know if this has anything to do but with my simcard inside i noticed 2 things

First it gets gsm signal crashes, looses the signal, regains it and this loops over and over.

After this i also noticed one service restarts over and over when this happens

This happened to me once, so I went back into recovery and used CM to reflash. My files were still on the root of the internal SD card, so I figured I'd give it a shot. It worked for me - cleared up my FC problems.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what do you mean by using CM to reflash? When i boot into recovery i only have three options:

reinstall

clear user data

clear cache

Select reinstall - hopefully it will launch the CM recovery mode. Then you can select to install from the SD card.

Just reinstalled cognition but it still has the same problem. Should i download the i9000 reoriented and try with that one to see if by any chance...?

 

[Minor723]

Did you try reflashing with sim card out? Maybe a master clear would help too?

 

[rastanthology]

Yes the last time i tried with the simcard out. I'm guessing the phone is still unlocked, a master clear woudn't change this? If anyone can confirm this I'll try it asap.

I'm downloading as well Doc's rom 7.5 to try reflashing that instead, I can do that or I have to downgrade and then reflash?

It worked!!!!!!!! It seemed that wiping the data without entering the reinstall menu doest not do the same thing.

Thanks all of you for helping me. I can now go to sleep in peace. Well as soon as i figure out how to put an alarm

How did you do it? I tried reinstalling without sim card and it did not work.

 

[simetra420]

I had the same problem, so I reflashed to factory /w Odin and made sure to wipe cache and data, and it worked without a hitch.

Did factory w/Odin, then wipe cache and data through reboot and then reinstall the package?

I think the problem could be that your unlock code was deleted. When you flashed. If you can not use odin try this, find the jh7 ota update. I think you can get it from the cognition download page. Flash this it will bring you back to a 2. 1 Rom. Read up on how to unlock your phone. Unlock then copy the unlock code. Then flash cognition again and follow steps to unlock.

If you are on the newest cog make sure you disable the voodoo lagfix prior to flashing. I can not guarantee this will work but it is worth a go. If you created a nandroid prior to flashing once you are on jh7 you should be able to restore

Captivate
Cog 2.2
