Hi..I am new to this android thing and i have a problem.
My phone was recently stuck at the lg logo when i turn it on..i waited but it didn't boot..sa i decided to use KDZ to flash it with an original firmware at 10a..It all went ok..After finishing i again booted my phone but i got stuck at the green circle logo of android..I tried again but still the same..
I also noticed that isn't it that the android logo should be a in pure wordings if its the original firmware and not the green circle with an android word below it?
Guys I've found one original firmware that eventually worked..it's the vodafone v10q..I tried to flash it with KDZ and my phone booted to the desktop screen..
However i can't root it anymore and every time i try to downgrade it the boot loop recurs again..One more thing that puzzles me is that the applications that i previously had in my prime v2 was there..It seems like it wasn't totally flashed..
help me pls! i'm puzzled and i don't know how to root it anymore..
By the way i was previously using prime v2..due too my foolishness, I insisted on flashing a circular battery theme made for void..After rebooting, that's the time i experienced the boot loops..
I dont know if this is possible but u can try,
While setting partition, set 0 mb ext and format sd then repartition with ur required size and flash the rom.

i just tried formating my sd card and repartitioning it with an ext2 of 620 mb but when i mounted it to my phone it wasn't recognized anymore..i formatted it with fat 16 system
this is the last line in the kdz log before the word finished: OnModelDllMsg(OnMsgFromModelDll-CDMA) delete m_pLGCyonUpdate
take out the battery, put it back in then press HOME+VOLUME UP+POWER that should put you in recovery mode and should boot up fine after that.

hi guys happy new year , I seem to have messed up my htc hero last night I went back to the official 1.5 rom by flashing a backup and it as fine but then I tried flashing the official 2.1 but it didnt go past the boot screen so I tried going back into clockworkmod but it just came up with a red triangle it goes into android system recovery 2e instead but wont let me flash anything keeps saying its siganture failed ,, please help me out guys asap as im now phone less , thanks
someone please which file do i need to flash in recovery 2e
Try and recover your phone by downloading an official file from the htc website..
or there might be a similar thread here telling you what to do ..
this should reset your phone so that you can then start again ..
Edit ..: this is the guide you should be using.. the top couple of lines pretty much explains that you need to flash the official file ..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645253
Have you tried booting without the sd card. Sometimes the SD card corrupts and that triangle shows
also try holding volume up + the power button at the triangle screen and select reboot now if that option comes..
the thing is it sticks at the 1st boot screen if i power it up holding home + power it goes to android recovery 2e not clockworkmod anymore , if I could get clockwork on there again i could flash the backup file
thanks or you help mate I got it going with fastboot using cmd prompt and restoring backup
Good work !
Hi all,
I'm trying to root but having problem. Then I decided to restore to factory reset via software and thru CWR but both failed....any suggestion?
Best Regards,
Jay
Sorry if I'm hijacking this thread, I am also having a similar problem. My tab has been rooted since I bought it, nearly a year ago. I have flashed loads of different roms and builds without any problem. Recently with the AOKP builds, my tab locks up randomly and I have to do a reboot by holding power for 15 secs. I can install a new rom etc, but it does not fix the issue.
I have since decided to do a factory reset, however in cwm when I choose this option it hangs and freezes the device...
I've tried the superwipe scripts, but because they are not for this device they do not work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

What exactly fails? The factory reset in CWM won't format the SDcard partition, btw. Only stock recovery does that.
I would suggest to flash a stock system using odin (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1651794). That'll revert the system and recovery to stock and you can do a factory reset.
I have fixed my problem, I don't know if it will help the OP. But here is what I did.
Downloaded ODIN plus the stock 3.2 honeycome odin file for my model p7500 (Unzip it too ). booted my tab holding power and vol down. Once the samsung logo comes up, release power.
Press Vol UP to select "Download Mode". Open ODIN, connect usb cable pc --> tablet and press volume up on tab again, to confirm download mode.
ODIN will recognize the tab, select the file you just unzipped, and click start... once finished you should be back to stock, so you can re-root. Like I had too
Now I just hope that my device is fixed and wont freeze anymore

Put the tab in download mode and Odin the stock tar.
+1. You will lose everything on your internal storage by the way, but its the best way to wipe any bad data or damage that has been done short of a hard brick.
Its quite refreshing actually I'm glad I did mine and it proved I didn't need half the junk that was on it lol!
@jaytee84: please tell your device's model my friend,and tell which firmware you are currently running

Go to Stock Recovery
Do Wipe data /cache
And then Flash a fresh Stock Rom via Odin
It will Boot if no then after flashing stock just do wipe data and then reboot
Thats it .

Since you can see the opening screen,I am sure it would go into download mode.
Press Volume up+Volume Down+Power to boot up the phone into Download mode.Connect the phone to your PC and see whether Odin recognizes it.Then,flash the stock Rom.

Did you flash a stock rom with odin v3.07?Your recovery might be damaged. First,install the stock rom with odin.Make sure it boots.Then go into recovery by pressing volume up+power+home and flash your desired rom.

No need for service center, just follow the steps for flashing a rom through Odin and you can recover your phone to a working state, but grab all the patience you can and follow the steps CAREFULLY, or you'll have a really hard time recovering your Ace-i
Hi guys "I DID IT" many thanks for your time and replies!!! what i did was i watched several videos on how to use Odin which i wasnt sure of then i put the phone in download mode & it worked THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! All the best for Xmas hope you have a fantastic time!!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Hello,
I have a S3 which is stuck in a bootloop at the samsung logo.
when i turn it on it shows the logo for some seconds then the screen goes black and the logo re-appears.
i can not boot into recovery mode, but download mode is working without a problem every time.
i tried flashing stock firmwares with odin and also tried kies emergency firmware recovery. the flashing always went without any problem, but it had effect. whatever i try, i am never able to boot into recovery and still stuck in the bootloop.
in some tries after flashing the screen just shows the samsung logo forever, but after rebooting it once it then is stuck in a bootloop again (shows the logo - screen goes black - shows the logo...)
i also tried flashing TWRP and CWM via odin, but again i can never boot into recovery mode.
what should i try next?
thx alot for any helpful comment

You can Try this:
1.) Pull out battery
2.) Put it in again
3.) Press Vol up + home + power
4.) When the Samsung Logo appears let it off
I think you press the Buttons too long.
I had the same problem!

i really tried everything, it's not working. btw with i am stuck at the very first image, where it says "samsung Galaxy sII GT-I9300".
i dont think it's just the way i press the buttons because i can reach it on my s1 and s2 without a problem, it's just not working on this device.
could some setting like "nand erase all" in odin help? in other threads there is sometimes mentioned that the internal file system might be screwed up and in those cases a simple odin reflash does not help anymore...
Nand erase will usually hard brick it. Try the rescue firmware from general forum, sticky thread. Follow the guide exactly as it includes a pit file.

thx, but i already did that (multiple times) and flashing via odin always succeeds. then the phone reboots and is stuck at the first samsung galaxy s.. screen. twice i managed somehow to get into recovery (after flashing cwm6) but it then randomly rebooted.
and i dont think that the power button is stuck because when i am in download mode it is perfectly fine it never reboots itself unexpectedly.
Had a similar issue on my tab2 p3100. It all happened when I tried flashing a custom recovery from rom manager.
A bad flash of anything related to recovery or bootloader could be a probable cause.
I remember a knowledge share on one of the threads describing this issue and as mentioned on it all I had to do is this:
1) switch off the device and plug in the charger. This would light up the display showing you the charging status. The status has to show if at least your bootloader part of the phone is fine.
2) plug out the charger and immediately press the three buttons (home + vol up + power) get into recovery mode. This step has to work and help you get to recovery mode.
***Note : the interval within which this step has to be performed is too short since the display would turn off immediately as soon as you plug out the charger. A bit tricky too so you have to be fast. If this misses getting you into recovery, pull out the battery and put it back again. Repeat step1 and 2 again.
3) upon successfully getting into recovery, perform wipe data, cache and select reboot phone from option available on recovery again.
Allow the device to boot. This could take a while since you have performed a data wipe and may prompt for first time set up.
I was able to restore functionality on my tab after these steps and like ppl learn from their mistakes, I then learnt that recoveries and bootloaders are things that needs to be done with a pc only.
Worth a try if you have tried other alternatives and found no go. may help. Who knows..
all the best.
thats also not working. i tried to get into recovery since two days now...
i also tried the steps from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/solved-pit-bricked-dead-problem-gt-t2535367
but again, after i flash the cf-root (successfully) the phone does neither boot into recovery by itself nor can i do it by hand...
its crazy... in download mode i can see the model number (GT-I9300) and i thought as long as the model number is there and i can enter download mode there should be a way to recover the device.
but i cannot think of anything to try that i have not done yet
If the rescue firmware didn't help then it looks like the emmc chip is damaged.

is there a way to make certain of this? how can i tell if it is really a hardware damage and not just a software brick?
i just dont want to let the phone go, it looks still so shiny
is there anything else that could cause the phone not booting into recovery mode after flashing custom recoveries?

Same here, still didn't found how to fix it.. I guess our motherboard just died..
Howewer I have a solution that "almost" worked for me.
Get a stock firmware in odin and turn on Nand erase and T-flash
When it's done phone reboots and you'll see just "Downloading..." mode when you turn it on.
Then got to Kies and Select firmware recovery...
Enter s/n and model name and wait for the flash to complete.
With it , I got past boot logo and actually booted into android but the phone crashed because I guess I have a memory issue..
Well , gl. If you don't find anything else helpful , try going with this method..
Hello, I was trying to reset my tab completely and I wiped EVERYTHING. I have CWM version 6.0.1.0, My tab gets stuck on Samsung logo screen. It can go into recovery but nothing else. I was told that the reason it won't boot is because I deleted the rom and there is no rom for it to go to. When I try to mount it, it doesn't show up...I've tried to install CWM 6.0.4.6 zip from external SD but installation gets aborted. PLEASE HELP I NEED MY TAB BACK ! Also it shows charging when it's turned completely off...

When you say mount it do you mean trying to send the files over through ADB or just mounting the SD card or putting it into download mode?
If its the ADB issue, try to put your tablet into download mode by using the volume key and power button, then download odin and its stock firmware and flash it using odin. Your tablet should restore to factory defaults using that method
If its the SD card then use the method above as it sounds like recovery may have lost it a bit
If you can not put the phone into download mode (which i doubt is the issue you may want to think about a USB jig as they sometimes get past those issues but from your description I doubt its a hard brick as it gets to the logo
2 things you can try!

I really new to this, i mean writing to help people, so don't flock me.
First, you say your device still have the recharging lights on when shut down, it tells me it's not only a software error, but some short circuit has happend.
Have you tried a hardreset? search google for your model if you doesn't know how.
From what i can read you still have the CWM Recovery, so download Android-SDK and try flashing the recovery from ADB (Found in platform tools.
Last but most tricky, if nothing helps, you' have to disassemble your device and temporary disable the battery, them press and hold the start button down for 5 sec to remove the poweroverload, reassemble again and try ASB adain, you can't reinstall the recovery directly from the SD
