hello,
i have the same issue, is there any solution to root the SGS without ODIN?
i have a huge problem as i cannot connect the sgs to PC in download mode (although if opened normally it connects with no problem) and the only way i can think to make an update is to used sgs kernel flaser from the market but as i don't have root i cannot use it.
pls help
The best way is odin.. But if your scared of losing your data u can flash cwm via odin then boot directly into clockwork(because it won't stick for more than one boot on stock kernal) and flash the superuser apk(found in the dev section of your device) via clockwork.. Boom your rooted and still have data... U could also use adb to directly flash busybox and the superuser file.. But if u cant figure odin out I would highly reccomend u stay away from adb... Goodluck

thanks from the prompt reply
unfortunately odis is useless for me as the PC is not recognizing the SGS opened in download mode so i cannot flash cwm. i had this problem a couple of months aga and solved it by flashing using sgs kernel flashed from market (as back them i had root) + wipe data & wipe cache then problem was solved, i could connect the sgs to PC in download mode and i was able to flash with odin.
As regards adb, i've seen some posts about it and it seems more complicated. I'll try to find out more about it maybe it will be useful.

I tried to flash a firmware via odin and it stucks to factoryfs.img.now i cant open my phone.When im flashing every firmware va odin it stucks at factoryfs.img.i tried to wipe everything from the stock recovery and retry but i had no success.when im flashing kernels i have no error.so i was wondering if i could flash cf-root and then when i will be into recovery push files via adb to internal sdcard.is this possible?if yes tell me how.If not tell me other ways to unbrick my device
Which firmware did you try? Try to flash a stock firmware. Go here and pick up the latest ROM and follow the instructions it is very well explained

i flashed a stock firmware.i tried this and i had no result.if you can answer this i told about cwm and adb i would be very happy
try another cable.
I had similar problem because of a poor cable ordered from e-bay.
even if you are using the stock cable, try another one as it might be damaged.
gokhan thanks for your help but it didn't work.if i format the /system partition will i be able to get into download mode?
I don't see how you could get Odin to recognise your phone in order to format the system partition if you weren't able to get into download mode.
So I guess I'll play Captain Obvious...Can you get into download mode ?
If not, does Odin recognise the phone when you hook the phone up to a PC via a USB cable ? (a long shot I know but I'm trying to think of anything that might work here).

You really need to start giving more information.
Excactly what rom did you tried to flash? And yes, you can just flash CF-Root and start flashing from recovery. If it is possible to push the files true adb, I don't know. But you will have adb for sure in recovery.
And why are you flashing? It looks like you have really no idea what you are doing.
the problem is solved.i flashed a cwm 9 rom via odin and now im ok.now im flashing chechrom.i had checkrom and i undervolted too much.the phone closed but accidenatly i had ticked the set on bot button.my external sd is broken and i didnt have a checkrom backp into my internal sdcard.so i decided to flash an official firmware and then flash again checkrom.this is the story but now my problem is solved so you can lock the thread.thank you all

Which firmware you flashed through ODIN?

if your experiencing a boot loop after flashing go into recovery and wipe data see if that helps

or read this bootloop thread

bootloop happens when the Rom corrupts during installation or installing any other application. or some people using ROM Manager . Never use ROM Manager you will loose the cwm. Download any ROM which supports Odin. flash it you should be fine. Then you can switch back to your favorite ROM. this is a good rom you can flash via odin.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1095274
PS : if you don't like to flash ROM just flash CWM via Odin which should give you access to CWM. you can restore you backup ROM if you have one or have any other ROM in your phone memory.

I was facing the same problem some days ago, but after surfing this forum, I realised that if you have Kies running in the background, Odin will behave oddly and will not flash the firmware by going into a bootloader loop.
I suggest that you re-install the drivers again and make sure that Kies is not running in the background when you are flashing through Odin (just fire up your Task Manager in Windows and terminate the Kies process).
Hope this helps you...

Probably you have bricked it. Try unbricking it. Search the forum for it.
Nothing happened
first thaank u for ur reply , i tried bricking it using one-click brick i did all required stuff (samsung driver , istalling java, ...)till i dont have any error messages but when i tried to unbrick it, it said failed although my phone on dowloading mode .
Do u think it may work if i tried to load new Rom as we do on updating using odin program ?
what do u think ?

Or, if you have cwm installed, boot in to recovery, format system, wipe data, and flash your favourite rom.

boot to recovery mode and perform a factory reset. Reboot your phone
Your device should boot now , if the flashing process was error- free.

This is a soft brick ( don't panic , when i don't softbrick my phone at least once every couple of days , i feel that something is wrong with the phone )
Ok here is what to do
1) download siyah kernel.tar from http://www.gokhanmoral.com/public/files/siyahkernel/v3.0/Siyah-v3.3.3d.tar
2)download pc odin3 v1.85 ( google it)
3) get into download mode and flash siyah kernel
4) download a rom.zip and put on ur external sd card using a card reader to connect it to ur pc
5) boot into siyah kernel's recovery mode and install zip from sdcard then install the rom u want
It is recommended to wipe data and cache via recovery ( but dont do it if u were on 4.0.4 or were trying toi stall it)

Hi.
First of all, I want to thank all the users of this forum, I found many helpful things and you're amazing.
Second, my english is a little bad, so I apologize for any mistake.
Now, the problem:
I have a rooted Grand Quattro that is stuck at the logo screen (the one that shows name and model of device). I can't boot to recovery mode, only to download mode. How can I make the phone start again? I have a backup of ROM that I've made with CWM, but I can't access CWM to restore, and can't reflash CWM (device says "signature verification failed" after every attempt with Odin 3.07).
I need help, I've searched through these foruns and another places, but couldn't find a suitable answer.
Thanks for attention
Flash Fresh ROM again via odin
BTW which rooting method did you use? There are better and easy methods. Use Kingo App to root the phone.
Try flashing the stock rom again via odin while in download mode ofcourse. Because you are able to do to download mode. Right?
Then download kingo app and root your phone. Don't use cwm method unless you want to flash any other script or custom rom in your phone.
Also uninstall USB drivers and install it again.
Let me know if some new problem arises. :fingers-crossed:
Cheers :good:
Thanks for response.
I flashed the stock rom and it worked again (and I didn't lost programs and personal files )
I opened this thread because I couldn't download the stock rom from Terafile, but I managed to download and install after some time.
About your question: I rooted with Kingo app, but I was trying to install CWM, and I read in a random place that I need to chroot the install-recovery.sh. I think this messed with the phone.
Well, I recovered the device and rooted again, so thanks for helping

Where did you get the stock rom? And flash it with odin?
Download it on http://sammobile.com and flash it with Odin.
This is great platform to resolve all kinds of rooting issues....
Stock ROMs of almost all versions are available on xda itself and all over the internet......
