I had a problem when trying to root my phone.
I followed all the instructions exactly, but after flashing the kernel with Odin and XWKDD_insecure.tar, then the phone rebooted, it showed the yellow sign and then went on a loading loop (just keeps showing the samsung and carrier logo)
It didn´t reboot back into its OS as it was supposed to.
How do I fix this?
I can turn it off and it shows the recharge icon (when rechargin).
I tried putting into download mode and that does not work, i get a screen saying:
android system recovery (3e)
with 4 options:
reboot system now
apply update from sd card
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
Also has a warning
# Manual Mode#
e:falied to mount /preload (no such file or directory)
e: install_application_for_customer: can´t mount/preload
You have to follow the instructions exactly . Do it again from the start .
I tried putting into download mode and that does not work, i get a screen saying:
android system recovery (3e)
PLEASE follow instruction you are putting the phone in recovery mode not download mode .
If a retry fails you will need to flash a new stock rom first .

Thanks for the quick reply
Problem is, when I used superoneclick the phone was in download mode, problem is now when I press volume+home+power it only goes to the mode android system recovery (3e) not download mode.
How can I flash the phone if I can´t get it back to download mode?
AS i said you are not following instructions .
DOWNLOAD MODE as posted.
HOLD Menu + Power + Volume DOWN down as in the bottom half of the volume button.
Instructions are not use super click in download mode phone should have rebooted .

Thanks again, I did get it back to download mode an retried to use odin as instructed but again when the phone is supposed too boot, it just shows the yellow sign and then goes on a loop.
Can I use XWKDD_insecure.tar with the Korean version of the phone?
UPDATE (30.05.11):
My phone starts up, but then hangs after some secounds. It started happend without me doing anything(I ofcourse had rooted my phone, but that was days earlier)
I have tried to flash Samsung KE7 firmware, with and without .PIT file, I have tried Villianrom v1.1 and I also tried to enter recovery and wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache.
Nothing seems to help, the phone still doesnt work.
I ordered a USB jig so I can reset the counter before I try to get it on warranty.
But before I do that, is there something else I can try?
Is my really phone defect?
What is samsung policy when you have flashed custom roms?

You saved the original firmware ???
Or do you know what your original firmware was . Probably WKDD
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Flash back to that but i would wager you are doing something wrong .
Did you extract the tar file I9100XWKE7_I9100XXKE4_I9100XEUKD1
from the zipped file first guess .

Im flashing I9100XWKE7_I9100XXKE4_I9100XEUKD1.tar
And it flashes successfully. But when one flash like this it doesnt delete everyting.
Still having issues with my phone, its hangs on boot, or right after, when I try to enter my gmail acount.
Tried flashing it with PDA : I9100XWKE7_I9100XXKE4_I9100XEUKD1_HOME.tar
and pit file u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit
DON'T use the pit file, only put the firmware in PDA and then press start.
I had the same Problem, just like you. I forgot to wipe the cache/data in the bootloader, thats why it goes in a boot loop.
first you have to go into the bootloader(shutdown phone, and then press home+volume up+power button). then once you are in the bootloader, wipe the data/factory reset, and then wipe the cache.
after you have done that, you can flash a new rom.
I tried that earlier aswell. But I can try again with the new firmware I downloaded.
This is what I tried now:
Enter rec mode (Power + Volume UP + enter)
wipe the data/factory reset
wipe the cache
Battery inn and out
Enter Flash mode (Power + Volume down + Enter)
Flashed I9100XWKE7_I9100XXKE4_I9100XEUKD1_HOME.tar with Odin3 v1.85 with only "Auto reboot", "F. Reset time" and PDA file checked.
After the flash, the phone reboots and Lock up on the "S" logo with "Samsung galaxy s II" underneath.
Waited 5 minutes, still locked on the same screen.
Turn the phone off and on, and it lockup where I input sim pin code.
I again turn the phone off and on an it locked up at the "Touch the android to begin, even before I get asked to enter pin..
I turn of and on the phone, And I get to the point where I can am asked to enter google infomation, and then the phone reboots itself and lockups on the "Samsung Galaxy SII GT-9100" logo.
Tried to enter Enter rec mode (Power + Volume UP + enter) and wipe out everything again, and reboot. But the system still hangs.
But I get this error message when I enter Rec mode and when I flash, is this normal?

Five mins doesn't sound long enough to me. My first boots took much longer, I swear. don't worry about multi csc error, I get that.
While you're at it, buy a jig and reset the custom rom counter to protect yourself

Okay, I can try to flash again when I come home from work today.
How long should I wait? 15 minutes?
Tried flashing again, and I leaved until the phone booted. (Happen very quick this time)
The phone still gets in reboot loop, or it hangs. Sometime its boots up fully(I can move around in homescreen) and then it hangs/reboots.
Tried flashing many different roms, but same symptoms.
Do people have an idea what I can do?
Is my phone defect?

You can't do anything of use in stock recovery. You need a USB jig to force download mode

hi i was trying to flash cwm into samsung galaxy core gt i8262 via odin
instead of showing pass or fail it showed me something else i forgot may be "reset"
when i reboot there was caution sign below the samsung logo this time but device worked properly
but i was unable to go into cwm. but as i did factory reset device went into cwm mode and not comming out of it
my device was not rooted at the time of installing cwm
pls help me
Stuck into booting into CWM every time after factory reset (Samsung Galaxy GT-I8262)
Peace!
Don't worry, dude! I had the same problem with my Galaxy Core I8262 when I factory-reset it from the Settings menu. I had the ClockworkMod Recovery installed already. It was stuck into booting CWM every time. Odin was unable to detect it either. So, here's how I managed it.
1. Restart Windows. And if it's stuck at the shutdown menu too, then force-shutdown it (by pressing the power button or turning off the power supply) and then start if manually.
2. After booting into Windows, reinstall Samsung drivers by completely uninstalling them first.
3. After successful installation, restart Windows once again.
4. Run Odin and connect your Android in Download Mode (Volume down + Home + Power). This time Odin must detect it, trust me!
5. Flash the CWM Recovery again via Odin (using the recovery.tar file).
6. Now you'll be able to boot into CWM as well as the ROM. But if you see your Android not going beyond the Samsung model logo then you'll need to download an official firmware file for your Galaxy Core and flash it via Odin.
I also used the 'format /system' option in CWM which might have wiped my system files. Let me know if the above procedure helps you.
