Need help from all the sifu here. My gf just received a used Samsung Galaxy i9000 from her brother-in-law who happen to stay @ Singapore. She brought it back from there now but the machine itself is locked with the message "Too many patterns attempt". The original phone owner is not the brother thus retrieving the right login info is out of the question.

After I did some research and read plenty of info, I found out the best way to reuse the phone is through hard reset. To make things complicated, I suspect this phone belongs to the batch that cannot be hard reset via the 3 buttons combo (LOL really FML) as I lost count on my attempts to hard reset the phone.

I'm a newbie in Android phone and never use one before, so my question is, what should I do next ??

The galaxy S you own is a locked bootloader.

To unlock your phone try to call yourself from the other phone and press "home" to return to the menu.
Then, change Setting -> Application -> Development - enable USB Debugging.

Connect your phone to PC through USB cable. Make sure Samsung ADB driver is installed.
Then download Android SDK from Google.
Browse into the Android SDK folder, look for adb.exe file, remember it's location.

Enter command prompt, enter the folder where adb.exe is located.

Type this command: adb reboot download

If everything is working fine, your phone will enter Download mode.

Cheer!

Just a question here.

I was on stock 1500mAh Samsung battery and thought the discharge was pretty fast for my use (3g on all the way and sleep time of phone for about 4 hours), battery goes to zero in less than 6 hours. Bought a Sunglobal 1850mAh battery and realised that the discharge is even much faster.

Have done all the necessary battery calibration, changing from stock roms (JVU/JW1/etc) and also on custom roms which claim to have lesser battery drain but maximum I can get is about that 6 hours only.

Normal/abnormal? Appreciate any views regarding this matter. Cheers!

Check BetterBatteryStats for wakelocks. Use 2G so that it doesn't drain much.

Thanks for suggestion bro. Have purchased BetterBatteryStats and checked that i only have a wakelock on com.android.email.Email. Don't really seem to understand the app too much despite reading the OP's thread HERE.

Care to elaborate a little bit more on what I should do with the wakelocks bro or even how to read this thing? Anyways, I am back on stock JVU with your Thunderbolt tweak.

Oh well, I only checked the thread in XDA after purchasing it from the market. No harm done as it should support the publisher. biggrin.gif

Will post my log there and look for feedback. TQVM bro!

I just update to Stock XXJVU Value Pack.
Seems like it not as smooth as the previous version.
I also feel that the battery is draining faster...

Any thing I missed in the process?
