setting --> Privacy --> factory data reset

I tried but doesn't seem to work. I click Factory data reset > Reset Phone > Erase everything....then nothing but blank black screen.

I have tried clearing the data from download manager app and clearing cache from market app. No luck that way either.

Very extreme. All apps gone now and still didn't work. Looks how it did with first startup. I will just do an install again using wipe function. Hopefully that helps.

Damn dude, seems like you've got the worse luck with your phone. Wish I could help but I'm not having any problems.

It will come right. Just need to get it right once. I was virtually there...then Voodoo lady messed it up IMO. Doing a clean install now whilst doing nothing at work. I really hope I don't get important phone calls.

Remember to disable the voodoo lagfix first.

Okay, fixed by reinstalling from scratch with ODIN. Now next problem. LoL. My background wallpapers cant be the widescreen type that moves if I select them through the Gallery. Any idea why? My lock screen wallpaper also cannot be selected. I appreciate what help I have received so far...thanks. I was so close but now just another darn flaw somewhere.

Yeah same here, it seems to be a problem, read something about it not using the Samsung Gallery App which causes a battery drain...

So I flashed my SGS with Docs latest Rom from their kitchen, but I have the following problem. Sometimes calls dont come through, I just get the sms saying I had a missed call.
PDA: I9000XwJS3
PHONE: I9000XXJPY
CSC: I9000OXAJPY
Build info: 2011.01
Modem is XEU (european)

Its totally random. Have tried putting it on GSM only, disabling the data connection....but nothing helped. Anyone have any idea? The previous Rom I had worked fine....does anyone know if I can "downgrade" to the old Rom just using CRM? Any help will be appreciated.

Dude...ihad the same problem, I am on Darky's 9.2 with SpeedMod...JPY modem does not work well for me as well...infact my reception was so bad all calls were diverted to voicemail... I highly suggest that you flash another modem for better reception, my phone recieves great signal and battery life is excellent! 2 days+ with moderate usage... I also disabled HSPA as this tends to drain battery life as well... I flashed to ZSJPE...download it from here:

Flash via cwm.

NB: you'll only start noticing a difference after a few discharges as the battery needs to calibrate correctly. Also I'm using ultimate juice which helps tremendously!

It worked with the first install before the market app stopped working so there must be someway of fixing it.

Are you sure iut is not just Vodacom issue (me assuming that is your network) but that is what happens to me every now and then but it also happened on last phone so it cannot be my SGS.

Well I have ...JPY modem with Vodacom and my phone works fine with calls and connecting and I'm in a place this week where the reception is quite wack.

Could very well be the network...I'm on cellc and network was terrible! Last week they had some upgrades so I'm assuming this was the issue...anyway I flashed to this modem and works great now so yea
 
How the heck did the HTC Desire HD thread get more pages than this one? No guys that must change!!
 
Just as an estimation...how much drain on the battery is there if I leave skype on in the background? Rough guess.
