I6000 freeze

[BMDSuperstar]

Hi! I’ve buyed me this awesome big phone/tablet. But I have a big problem, with all Firmwares I tried (MIUI, V65, Inew Stock). The Screen freezes and gets darker and then the phone make a restart.
The only thing I did was the I organized my memory with the tool I’ve found here.
In the most times, it freezes when I’m surfing via chrome or via an app. Do anyone have the same problem? Is their any fix for this? Or is this an hardware defect?
Thank you!

So you didn't have problems before repartitioning your memory? I would advise to repartition again (but beware, you'll lose all your data) because most Custom ROMs don't overwrite the partition, so if the problems occured after you repartitioned I think you should try again. Or make sure you flash a ROM that DOES partition the memory again.
If you've tried that and it didn't work I can't help you, sorry.

Thank you for your answer. I will try it...I'm not sure if I had this problem before I had repartitioning. I think I did this directly after I've received the phone.

From my own experience with the iNew 6000 2/32GB version i would strongly advice against fiddling around with repartioning of the memory. I have had HUGE problems with this and have reverted back to the original partitioning scheme, 2GB RAM, 5,5GB app storage and the rest free. For the everyday user this will be just fine and if you also move as many of the apps as you can to SD then the internal app-storage will last for a foreseeable time!

I know other members have been successful with repartitioning but from what i can deduct these phones have been the 1/16GB versions.

If you want to start messing around with the partioning tables (EBR, EBR2 files) there is a nice post in another place here on the forums.

I have successfully repartitioned my 2/32 version :-) (although a few problems at first, but that was my own mistake).

Did you do that with the 8GB/16GB APK from Meteos? How many Gigs you gave to the app partition?

[Squier]

Yes, I used one of those. I have 4 GBs for apps now (already regret not making a bigger partition, LOL).

What I did wrong the first time was that I messed around with partition in CWM after rebooting in recovery. After installing the apk you just have to reboot into recovery, but do nothing else, just reboot system.

I have the same problem but I don't modify the partition. For you this problem is completly solved?

I have also had a lot of trouble with this phone, the reviews looked very good but it was just another case of a phone that could talk the talk but not walk the walk.

The camera and gallery were the main trouble spots, the camera just shows a green screen and the phone said that it could not connect to the gallery.

I inquired at the inew help desk but they were not really interested so I have given up with the phone and I am now looking at a THL handset.

I also have a V3 which is a great phone with an outstanding camera, but the i6000 is s** t.

I know that a lot of guys will say that you can fix it by doing this and doing that, but when I buy a phone I expect it to work out of the box - if I buy a new car I don't expect to start changing the engine after a week.
