My Galaxy Player is Korean, and i tried to flash a International firmware, but i failed.
Mine was originally KRKPL, and i tried to flash XXKPH. I didn't know I needed to factory reset, so i came back to KRKPH, and tried to wipe, and failed. I flashed KRKPL and i couldn't as well. XXKPH doesn't work also.
When i tried to do factory reset, it says it can't mount.
I've attached two pictures.
This is not mine but it has same situation.
Plz help me guys...

Have you tried to wipe the cache and whatnot? If so take a look at this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498421
What are you using to flash a rom?
Just a comment to you: this is not a hard brick. It is hard bricked if you cannot turn it on at all. This is a soft brick.

Um... I'm really sorry but as English is not my first language, i cant fully understand wts there...
Just to make sure wts happening on my device, I cant boot it and I cant wipe cache or factory reset cause it says it cant mount
And... since they(the people on that link) are talking about LG device, not Galaxy Player, I cant use the files or smth...
Maybe it is because i didnt understand it. i think so.
So i will be great if you just explain to me little bit easier and more wt i should do..
thx

im using odin to flash the ROMs
and i thought it was a hard brick.. soz
The problem on the other post was the same as yours. However he used rom manager to flash the rom which was the source of his problem as he told rom manager that he was using a different device to what he was using.
What version of odin are you using? Also just checking, when you flash, you are putting it in PDA and have all the things that need to be ticked/ unticked, ticked or unticked.
I think that you're problem is that you have lost your partition tables. So this is what you should do: odin3 rebuild partitions, with valid pit file and one package in PDA

ROM Manager is a app of market, past that I dont know much as it hard bricks my device the moment you grant it sudo permissions, but Cyanogenmod likes it as you can wirelessly "send" ROMS to your phone.
Ill see if i can get a 16G PIT
- Edit, only can find PITs for the 4.0 version 16GB, but I assums as the hardware stays the same (only size of solid state drive changes) it should work, good luck.
One package in PDA and yes, it is the firmware file, it contains boot, systemrfs, csc and modem perhaps- not to sure as its not a phone. but it has all you need.
so... ur telling me to use 4.0 PIT and 5.0 firmware? is that right?
and isnt rom manager a app in android device? how can u use that to flash a rom?

Im note sure about your first question but harry will know that. I would have thought that you would use 4.0 pit and 4.0 firmware, maybe harry thought you had a 5.0, I will check with him.
But yes you can flash a rom with rom manager however I would not recommend it as it is likely that it will brick your device. Check other people trying it on your 4.0 though, I wont use it because I do not fancy I hard brick. There are however many other applications that do the same but I would stick to odin if I were you. If you did decide to use a mobile rom flasher then I would say mobile odin would be your best choice but once again I have not used it myself.
If you choose to use rom mangager then check out this for a full explanation: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/koush/32771-faq-what-rom-manager-how-do-i-use.html

I would use pit for 5.0 8gb and firmware for 5.0, korean and see how it goes if you can't find the 16gb pit. This is because only the size of drive changes, no other hardware nor software. The kernel should be exactly the same. So I would not recommend using 4.0 pit otherwise you may brick or come into another problem. If the 8gb pit does not work then ask around on the forums for the 16gb pit, and if no one has it then give the 4.0 16gb pit a go.
Sorry I got a bit confused there, I was helping someone out who has a 4.0.
I would stay away from 4.0 stuff for your 5.0 if I were you

You're problem is a problem with lost partitions, so you need to get them back. Usually by doing what you did before. So I will look for you and if you look online as well, you need to put partitions back to stock or recover lost partions.

Did you make a Nandroid backup before flashing? (then just go into recovery and restore).
If not,
Go into download mode (volume down + home button + power button) and flash your stock rom with ODIN. Download your correct firmware here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
(there are also instructions on how to do it)
Do a factory reset and wipe your cache first before you do this (in recovery mode).
I can use only odin i think, cuz i can't turn on the phone so there is not any other possibility...:/
can i download listening room 6.1 and instal because that's only i found via odin.. exept that u said me here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 ?
I made only titanium backup... that doesnt help right?
Btw how can i know what is my karnel version ? i mean... last i instal was listening room 6.1 and i instal it just now bia odin... but phone still doesnt works... so? what to do? :O before litening room was dark knight and before knight was MIUI 2.3.7 v10 smth like that... and all those versions i instaled today...:O
Just use a stock rom first. I think a 3 parted with a pit file is the best way ;-)

You say that you can't turn on the phone? Even to download mode? (hold volume down + home, then press power and hold all three) If the phone doesn't come on at all, it sounds like you are screwed, and have to take the phone to a service center. Or get a jig. And I have doubts that a jig will work.
yes, it can to download mode, just i didnt know how it calles i meant it is odin nvm... what to do now? just if you start with explaining... give me full explanation so i can't mess up again

I'd grab one of the later stock ROMs from Intratech's thread here. That thread also has detailed instructions in the first post.
But first of all, how sure are you that you have a GT-I9100? Look under your battery at the label. What model number does that label say? You want to make sure you use a ROM intended for your model of phone. Otherwise you will end up right where you're starting now - with your phone not working.
If you have an I9100 device Go to the thread given to you in the previous posts and read the first few posts calmly and thoroughly till you understand it.
Odin will be your best bet.
Download mode on your device is power+home+volume down all pressed together until it's boots.
Read the info in intratechs thread that you were linked to its all there.

Why not ? sounds like his partition scheme got a little messed up ion the process, couldn't hurt to repartition.. I do it all the time, tried it accidentally the first time, it didin't even wipe the contents of my internal SD (probably because the same partition layout got flashed than the one that was on the device).
Nowadays I do it everytime I flash a stock rom that provides a .PIT file. I mean if it's packaged with the ROM, it's certainly not for nothing, they can't be that dumb at samsung..
Hi Guys
New YP-G70 owner.. love it so far, but I have a few questions:
-Am I right in thinkiing I can do anything with it as i can with a SGS apart from make a phone call, such as mod it, flash it and custom it with EX Launcher, Cyanogen or anything from the Google Market.
- Does anyone know what the latest English language firmware. I found this on SamFirmware,
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?p...70&r=1#regiona
but the 2.3.6 are for italy and sweden, when i do a search for UK firmware, the latest one is 2.3.5.. XXKPF, which says France.. can anyone advise.
Thanks

Ive just got this today.. can anyone help..please
Is it Bricked?. Will leaving it on to drain the battery help?.
Also, is there a recovery file for it. My version is a YP-G70CW, which i believe is the international version.

you need to find the stock ROM & use ODIN to install via download mode. All the info you need are in these forums, I did a search for your model & stock rom I got this. Or search the dev forums.

then clicked start and it failed, now its just sitting there as mentioned, but i have downloaded the 8gig international..235.pit file, i just havent done anything yet.
What should i do next?
Ok, had a dig around and I need to flash a kernel as well as the KPH file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574207
Is there a kernel available for stock KPH and do i need to use the .pit.
Thanks
Thank god.. Its Done.. Yep, its fixed through hard work, reading around, following advice given and much diligence. In the download mode I mentioned, I flashed using rjs Kernel which got it bootlooping, then flashed KPF in ODIN.. had to flash KPF twice, wiped Cache part > Dalvik Cache, fact. reset and reboot.. all done.
Because this has a built in battery, ill not be doing this again through odin.. ill use KIES, even if i have to wait 3 months for the release.
Its now 4.30am and im off to bed.
Thanks
Update... Im now on KPH236
Some questions about that flash:
When the flashing failed and i held holding the power button down for 10 seconds, thats when it booted into the other download mode (phone, triangle, PC), so would i be right in thinking this works like flashing a SGS and what bricks it would be:
- Installing US firmware on my EU player.
- Installing bootloaders for no reason or anything rom-wise from a SGS
- pulling the USB cable out when flashing OR closing down ODIN.
- Geting impatient and pressing/holding down buttons when still in download mode or flashing.
A few other questions:
- Is there anything else that I could do to protect it against a brick.
- As this is not a phone, can I go back to 235 if i want, just use ODIN with XXKPF 235 in PDA.
- If i do go back, Will I have to replace rjs kernel first with stock KPF kernel, then flash KPF ROM or can i just flash the rom and it will overwrite rjs.
- Googles search by voice doesnt work unless its wifi'd, as in finding something in the player like a song, a memo or contacts name, it just "connection problem" .. Is that normal, yet runs fine with wifi on.
The reason Im asking is because Kies keeps telling me there is a connection problem when i plug it in and it wont detect it.. Is this due to rjs kernel or is there another issue, just to put my mind at rest.

I will be extra cautious if a ROM has zImage (kernel) and/or bootloader in it. The consequence of a corrupted bootloader is obvious. A corrupted kernel can be problematic because the recovery mode comes with the kernel. If you messed up the kernel, you will loss your recovery mode as well.
Actually I hope more developers will publish their ROM in CWM flashable zip rather than Odin image. Since Odin basically dump the disk image to your device, any mistakes in the process will likely corrupt your device's partitions. In contrast, CWM flashing uses high level operations like file delete and copy to install the ROM (in most cases). It is much less risky than using Odin (if the developer knows what he is doing). Just my 2 cents.
So if i delete the "zimage" in a ROM and flash it, it will only flash the ROM? Also how do i know if it has bootloaders included?
Forgot to quote you but.... Cheers WT Ho, youve put my mind at rest and Im quite happy, that after my problems above, its not the player... rjs is nice and stable and boots really fast, so Im staying on KPH 236 and gonna upgrade through ODIN, not downgrade to KPF.. Have found the issues are with Kies not the kernel being recognised, alot of posts about Kies issues on various sites and forums. SamFirmware.com is my friend.. .

You can open an Odin ROM easily by using 7-zip. If it has md5, you will encounter a warning but that's fine.
For full ROM, you will see
boot.bin
cache.rfs
dbdata.rfs
factoryfs.rfs
param.lfs
Sbl.bin
zImage
Basically most custom ROMs will modify your factoryfs.rfs only. If you need a new kernel, zImage is also needed. All other files are related to boot or data partition (usually not needed). Therefore many ROMs only have zImage and factoryfs.rfs in them.
Although I haven't tried that myself, I think it is possible to just put the factoryfs.rfs in the tar file. That will be similar to the Odin package of rj's kernel, you will only see the zImage in the tar file.
Just as the Subject says. Only for knowledge purposes (though my phone is bricked :/ )
I get absolutely NO ERRORS while flashing ANY firmware for that matter through Odin. Though my phone is U.K Unbranded I9300XXBLG8.
It should boot-up but doesn't :/
Can't get into Recovery either. Not even a glimpse of it.
Stuck at the i9300 logo :/
Anyone care to help me and answer the following questions?
1. When is flashing a PIT File suitable? At what error u should do it?
2. Do I have a Bootloader/Recovery Problem or something?
3. Will J-Tagging help it?
4. Can someone tell me what is causing this problem? I haven't seen anyone with this problem yet. The firmware as well as CF Root flashes successfully (in Odin)... though the phone shows no positive results.
5. Should I go for PIT or J-Tagging or something else? I don't wanna risk it. All I know is that u should only flash a PIT file when u get the "Get PIT for Mapping" error. And J-Tagging is when the phone doesn't boots up. (I may be wrong)
Anyone with some suitable knowledge please drop by and help me.
Or someone who had this problem before.
My phone is a GT-i9300
CSC Version: I9300OXABLG8
Last Firmware was XXBLG8.
Pebble Blue non-branded and 16gb version.
THANK U
don't panic!
You should be able to fix it by just flashing a stock firmware with Odin
---------- Post added at 04:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 PM ----------
you could also try removing the battery for a few minutes and then reinsert and try voting recovery again
Only go for a pit file, if you're planning to flash-lock the device, or repartition it, for that matter.
Don't panic, if your device is bricked, it's not, actually
You f***ed up your boot partition..
Goto sammobile.com/firmware, register, download latest U.K. firmware and then you should be good to go. Then you can root it and everything. DW about your SD, it'll stay as it is..
Hope I could help!

Flashing a pit is risky, and interruption could lead to hard brick, however if you do it right then all will be good, I used to flash with pit on the s1 regularly as it was a necessity coming from cm to gb, or something along those lines.
Just make sure you know what you are doing

any specific error messages about that in cwm?
Personally i used .pit with no issues. My story was that i changed the original partition layout and flashed stock .tar after that. CWM was functional but couldn't mount anything. So i just grabbed a .pit and flashed stock together with .pit - all fine.
And regarding the "interruptions" during .pit flashing - it was the same speed as flashing without .pit, at least for me.
If in your case it's simple filesystem corruption, connecting over adb and launching fsck on the messed up partitions should provide some results.

It's not even related because your system can mount and format partitions. Have you tried redownloading the file, reflash it with re-partition enabled and wipe data?

Hmm did you try to flash perhaps the HK stock rom and wipe the data, then update to GB to see if it can fix it?

i would say try this flash this through odin PDA http://d-h.st/Ohu then without rebooting flash steves intl kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377771
then maybe you will have to flash a pit file from here. make sure you use the PIT section in odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389873
DON'T FLASH YET THOUGH. wait till somebody confirms it. I don't have a Player 4.0 so i may be wrong. somebody please say if i'm wrong

Hi, I downloaded pit file several times and several files of pit i find for my Galaxy Player but with no luck, and the second link dosent work for me bicause it is for the Galaxy Player USA version....(mines the intl version GP-G1)
i tried to flash terrasilent recovery that i find here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1643384
i flashed 1.3v and 1.3.5v and i have no luck. The Player enters in bootloop and i cant do nothing.
i found this other WhiteBeam Kernel that has CWM recovery and i can enter to cwm recovery and wipe data, cache partition and dalvik but never boot into andorid. this is the link where i found this kernel.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1807997
I downloaded iChaOS-TestBuild2iostheme rom and tried to flash it via cwm, it says succes but when i restar it will never boot.
i also wiped everything before rebooting.
I redownloaded Stock Rom from (this is the zaclimon post) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531850 and flash via odin and pit file. Then make wipes. then it shows all the error message u can see the image in my first post of this thread. It BOOTS into android but with all the information like if i never did something to the player. (all games, photos, apps and folders) but all apps and system apps when the system starts shows message "force close" to all apps and all system apps. (u cann see image in first page of this thread) i dont know what is happening to this player. its like it doesn't want to wipe nothing.
Its like freeze with all things since the day the player damaged.
Someone with some other ideas? am frustrated i dont understand.
well this is an international kernel not? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59125319/STeVEs-3.0-EU.tar
it says EU for European. but that's the same thing not
also here would be the right pit file http://www.mediafire.com/?u4fsajrqsw3uk71

Do you mean you can't even get into recovery? If it can, I would think a data wipe might get the ROM to be able to boot.

You might want to double check if you are using the right version of recovery that kernel is fully supported with your ROM. For example, if you are trying to install a KK ROM using an old version of CWM you will end up in error 7 or end up in a boot loop screen. My words are pretty mess up but I hope you get what I mean. So make sure you have the right version that match each other (recovery, kernel, ROM).
Hope that helps.
im new to all of this. when i hold the home button the power button and the vol down button i get a screen telling me installing a custom os could be bad press up to continue i do this and install even the official software but when it reboots it keeps looping on the samsung logo

I suggest you flash a working recovery via odin first. Look for TWRP, it's the best newbie-friendly recovery or try CWM if you are looking for more advanced options. After that, flash a stock or custom ROM to get your phone back working. Make sure they are compatible with each other. Why didn't it work when you try flashing the stock firmware via odin? Make sure the zip file is downloaded properly.
Hope that helps.

It seems like you have broken files. Make sure those firmwares are for the right model of your phone. Are you using I9100 or I9100G? Is your phone still under warranty? What do you mean by not network based? I think it's time you head on to NeatROM JB 4.1.2 Aroma and flash that to your phone. It's way better than the stock one from Samsung. If you don't know how, read the instructions from the OP.
Hope that helps.
il give it a go

This error is most probably because you don't have the right Rom for the right model or not compatible hence the verification error. Are you doing this in recovery mode? Make sure you follow the installation instructions properly and download the right one for your phone model. Just try cyanogenmod for starter. Installation is easy to understand.

ok so i went to cyanogenmod downloaded the newest file for the s2 when i did unzip i get 2 folder meta-inf and system plus a boot.img file. i burned the boot file to a disc but when i check it the disk is empty even though i can see its burned. also when i go to sammobile to get firmare it says no files available...therte must be some way of getting this to work H E L PPPPPPPPPPP
Dude, you're not supposed to be burning anything to discs. The zip file is what the recovery uses to install from. It should include the custom kernal too.
Copy the zipped ROM file to your SD card, put it in your phone and boot into recovery. Assuming you've already flashed the latest custom recovery CWM or TWRP (I prefer TWRP)
From here, to be safe, do a full wipe (That's everything except sd-card: system, data, cache, dalvik-cache)
Now you install/flash the zip file via recovery. Hopefully that completes without error. After that clear cache and dalvik-cache again just to be sure (I do this out of habit)
Reboot.
Hope this helps. I saw you mention something about "efs" and that gives me a bad feeling, read something about needing to back that up before bad things happen. But anyway, good luck :good:
