hello guys i have a problem updated to 1.7.2 through rom manager and i got a bootloop on cyanogen logo any advice to solve this?
Did you data-wipe
Sent from my GT-I5500 using Tapatalk
go to dwnld mode flash cwm again when the phone boots into recovery flash the latest version of cm7 and be sure to wipe the data,cache and dalvik cache ) download the latest cm7 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1149110
Reboot into recovery, data wipe, clear cache and dalvik cache. Should work fine after that.
do what the others said above ........ if problem still persists, check if you have an old or worn out SIM card....... my friend had a galaxy mini with a worn out mtnl SIM. he faced the same problems as you....... as of the bootloop, can you describe it in detail? there are a few types of bootloops ........ one in which the bootanimation ends abruptly and starts again, one in which the bootanimation ends abruptly and the whole phone reboots (starting all the way from SAMSUNG, ANDROID, etc.). So try all the things mentioned above, and if none of them work, describe the bootloop type.
hope i helped
I am facing a kind of similar problem. I have two sim cards-Airtel and MTNL. I am using the CM7 v1.7.2. The phone works absolutely fine with Airtel sim card, but when I insert the MTNL sim card, the phone boots up till the home screen, and within 2-3 seconds, it reboots itself. This keeps on happening continuously, so I can't use that sim card with the phone. I have tried flashing , re-flashing, data wipe, etc but in vain. Any solution guys?

Unfortunately for you, there is no solution as of now. Try posting your problems on the cyanogenmod developer thread(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1149110), see if they can help you out.
Same Problem
Hello,
I'm having that same problem as described on this thread. I followed the instructions from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416190
After doing so the phone gives the startup of Samung www.samsungmobile.com then the word ANDROID comes up off centre then loops back to the Samsung www.samsungmobile.com screen.
any ideas?

As i said, ask the devs. Im no full fledged dev of my own;I cant help you.
Eithe flash back to stock ROM or ask the devs about CM fixes for people like you.

Hi. just a moment ago, while charging my phone. it works pretty fine. ( still playing my Sims freeplay ). after awhile, my phone could no longer boot. ( before it was hanged with my LED blinking ). it has turned to a full brick. i had no idea whats wrong. it was working fine a moment ago. i read online and it says it could possible be a hard brick. anyone could help me with this?
Is your phone rooted? What have you done thus far to try and boot it up again?
First things first: Pull the battery, put it back in, try and boot. If you still have nothing, try charging the phone - do you get the standard charging screen up? If you do, then let it charge for five minutes before trying again.
If you don't get the standard charging screen, I'm afraid the handset is likely to be broken. Others may have more ideas.
What have you altered that could of done this ?
ie. Have you changed the ROM,kernel,wiped anything just before this happened?
Sent from the man in Your attic.....
yes. before that. maybe 12 hours ago before i sleep, i flashed Omega rom V31 via CWM. and also did install some themes and kernel ( siyah kernel ). after that it was still working fine. until a moment ago.
Try taking battery out. Put it back and try to get recovery by pressing home,vol. Up, power together, if you could not get recovery from the menu. I'll see what happens when u post

What sort of ROM is it AOKP ? ICS,jb?
Wondering if your kernel and ROM are mismatched. Do not know the ROM.it would save time if you could tell me. I'm CV tied up
Sent from the man in Your attic.....
I think if he can flash a firmware with odin doesn t matter what he had before. The phone just reflashes ando will bem ok. Theres not much to think about it. If not he assim a major problem, The boot isso damaged. Maybe with help of a jig he can restore it again.

I installed the last omega rom for my galaxy s3 and i have a little problem. From time to time when i try to unlock the phone, the screen frezees and i can't do anything for about 30-60 seconds. I can press the unlock button again and again, the screen only lights up and then turns off but i cant slide the screen to unlock the phone. It is frozen. And after 20 times of pushing the button, luckily the screen unfrezees.
So, what could be the problem?
Follow the instructions wipe and reflash rom .

I'll try that now. I remember i flashed some time ago another version of omega (with android 4.1.2) and i did everything i was supposed to do,clear dalvik cache and wipe cache. And i had the same problem. Moreover i did a factory reset today and the phone had the same symptoms.
Might be a bad download in that case .
jje
So far so good. Hope you were right when you said about a bad download, but when i think a little further, beside a bad download problem it could have been an application related issue. Anyway, it works for now. Hope it does from now on too. Thank you JJE!
Hey everyone
My Galaxy S3 will not connect to my Airtel GSM network (India). When going into the service providers it shows all the provides but will not connect to any of them. The error I get is that "Selected network (Airtel) is unavailable", so that means it is getting the signals from the network but is not connecting to them.
A little background, yesterday night my phone restarted and got stuck on the loading screen (the one that says Samsung), I searched on the net and went into the recovery mode (Volume up + Power + home) and there found that the error was that the efs partition could not be read. I've never rooted the phone or even tried to install a custom ROM. I did a factory reset and cleared cache and when that did not work I got desperate and tried to search online for a solution . I finally ended up using this
Youtube video titled E: failed to mount /efs (invalid argument) Galaxy S3 ... Can't post the url since I'm new here
I think this killed my IMEI number but it got the phone working again
The phone booted correctly however all text was in Portuguese and it had some really notifications that I did not understand.
Since I'd already lost all my data I decided to install the cynogenmod too CM11M7 (snapshot) hoping that would resolve most of these issues. The mod worked perfectly with everything including wifi running. However the only thing that does not work is that it will not connect to the GSM network. Please advise, really need this phone to work
Can I do a recovery using Odin? Will flashing another modem work, my current baseband number is I9300XXUGNA8? any other steps that I should be taking?

Yeah, without an efs backup, your IMEI is ruined. I suggest you flash back to a stock rom and take the device in for repair, if it is still under warrantee they should fix it for free, provided you have stock recovery and rom the device came with. You can search the General thread for how to do this.

It's not in warranty, plus I guess they'll keep it for quite a few days. Is there no other way to get this to work?
Also, could you please give me link to how I can put back all the stock things if I really need to take this in for repairs
Thank you so much for your help
Had the same problem when bought s3, exchanging sim-card in 'my operator''s office solved the problem

I wish it was that simple ...
Sorry, should've posted the solution earlier incase anyone else had the same problem
Took the phone to a service center, they re registered my IMEI. Charged me about 1200 INR (about 20$) to do so since the phone was purchased in the USA. After that it started working again. I've installed all the updates and it all seems to work fine. The lesson is that everyone, regardless of whether you are planning to tinker with the phone, should have a backup of the EFS partition.

Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
I have had a couple of restarts and lags since I started use this ROM. Sometimes my watch don't want to turn on from ambient mode, I must wait and it's really annoying.
I think the wibration is too loud. But good thing is that my watch is faster.
Perhaps a factory reset would fix the issues you are having. The script clears both userdata and cache, but something weird may have happened.
No issues on my end, using the Windows script to install the ROM.

Pretty sure this has just bricked my watch. It couldn't find the firmware files after wiping the watch and then restarted it. Now it's just sitting on the LG unlocked bootloader screen and not responding to anything I can do, nor is it detected in device manager.

Managed to recover using download mode.
I have stucked at logo LG for an hours after installing the rom, i dont know what i have to do, please help me!!! ((((

Whenever I install(manually and auto) my watch wont reboot, it doesn't ever get past the LG logo. I found out boot wouldn't format, so instead of formatting before I flash the image I erased. I don't know if that's somehow the problem but I need help. I currently reinstalled stock boot and system and it's working fine.
Now the watch's touchscreen won't work. I think I installed the system.img but not the boot. Now it boots but the screen doesn't work and I cant get into fastboot

When your watch reboots after flashing everything, remove it from the cradle, then it will boot

undervolting
Hi! I like u rom on my watch with ondemand governor. What about undervolting of cpu?
Hi guys i'm new around here i had this problem with my s2 for a while now and tried to solve it myself but i haven't done such a great job and now my phone won't even start. I'll try to explain it as detailed as i can so you can understand .
So i rooted my s2 first time 2 years ago with the help of my friend (i don't remember the version of the android) and had this weird problem after 1 year i couldn't download any other apps because my memory was always full , so i decided to try another root maybe the problem will solve , so i rooted my phone to 5.1.1. Lollipop and everything was great for a week . Then the real chaos begin phone started to shut down randomly even with 80%+ battery and couldn't start it only if charged it , if the battery was 100% i could use the phone for 10 maybe 15 minutes and then again it would shut down , I used the phone like that for a couple of months but then it would shut down even when was charging so i decided to solve the problem (my friend didn't wanted to help me anymore) and started to search around the forum and on google for any solutions i found that i can unroot my phone to the stock official firmwave searched in the list for my version of build number but my build number (I9100XXLPS) is not matching with my region , tried the version of my region everything went alright until the phone rebooted . Now the phone is stuck at start up loading image and reboots itself after a while and does the same thing . I tried finding the good version of build number (I9100XXLPS) but i can't find any source of download .
Tell me guys what i am doing wrong and if you got any ideas how i could fix my phone please help :crying: :crying: :crying:
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
Try this guide if you haven't already:
[GUIDE][Troubleshoot a failed Odin flash]
Follow the guide carefully.
gsstudios
No worries, you must know from which region you have bought the Phone from so go to this link http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/GT-I9100/ then signup and enter the region and download the firmware. And follow the link given by gsstudios. If you specifically want i9100XXLPS then get it from below link.. which is old version of IceCreamSandwich
