[Q] Galaxy I9000 not booting - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dears,
Fisrt of all I'm not an expert, I just try every thing...
I have booted into the boot menu (Up + Menu + Power) and from there I formated the boot, data, datadata, system, and maybe others.
Now the device is only booting and showing "Galaxy S GT-I9000" on the screen and nothing else... I cant even go to the boot menu again.
Please tell me how to install the kernel, the rom
I have downloaded cm-7.2.0-RC3 to my SD card, and I think I need suitable kernel for that... also I need odion with version other that 1.85 coz it is not working.
Please help !

Im not sure if it will work but you might try to install a stock rom via odin 4.43 (it works for I9001)
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/55377774/Odin Multi Downloader v4.43.zip
after you flashed the stock rom search in google how to get into the recovery mode apply the cm update on your sd card install it and whipe data/cash
afterwards you should have cm and everything should be ok

Problem with CM9

Hey guys, so I downloaded cm9 and tried to install it on my phone.
I got it from this link and also followed the video tutorial there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500234
I had rooted my phone and had CWM recovery v5.0.2.6
Now when I try to reboot, there is just an blue screen.
I did exactly like in the video, I tried 2 times. Still it didn`t work. Please help. Could someone provide any step by step instructions other than the video?
Thanks.
I think you needed to use with CWM 5+
Try to get back into CWM and root your old ROM.
I am very bad at this... So I dont really know how to do that... could you provide any steps or an tutorial?
Edit:well I tried to format sd card and system but nothing. Could someone provide a link to gingerbread 2.3.5 and a way Icould put it on my phone? Also, could I do anything with samsung kies?

NO NO. Don't use kies. Kies sucks a lot. Search the developer forum for "clockworkmod 5" flash it normally (I suppose you already know how-to since you have CWM4) after getting CWM5, flash ICS/CM9 Normally. no need to flash GB
Here is cwm 5

Glad we could help, be carefull next time. Always try to use newest software.
Ughh I forgot to root my phone right after flashing. So I installed CWM before rooting.. how do I root now? And also I think it is still not working. The phone has been blue for about 2 minutes now. I followed the video exactly like it was.
EDIT: damn... so after getting the blue screen again I thought of going back to normal ver and maybe some other custom ROM... but guess what.... It doesnt work anymore... I did just like before.Went into download, used ODIN to download 2.3.5 french ver to my phone, odin says PASS. But last time It had booted correctly by 4:40 or so. This time like 10 minutes have passed and still rebooting. What to do now?
EDIT2: Am I allowed to make a new thread since the problem is not with cm9 anymore?
here, check this out:

download it and flash it through stock recovery
i dont think you need to root it before flashing this (i didnt)
i just flashed this over the stock rom (non rooted) and then flashed cm7.2
i too had such problems but dont worry flash some stock rom with odin then it wont boot so remove your battery and place it again.now go to stock recovery wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition then reboot.then use cwm 5 to flash cm 9.

Hey, this is exactly like in the video, I tried that. But this time I am going to first use odin to put XWKS2 2.3.5 on my phone, and then root using SuperOneClick (Last time I used udp1 or something like that) and then try again.

Android problem

well, i tried to install cyanogen mod 7.2 official with no succes
i downloaded the files needed (gapps and cyanogen) put in sd card and i turn off phone then boot up again while pressing home.
i wipe factory reset + user data
then i went in sd card and install both gapps and cyanogen(first) afterwards i reboot the phone. my phone boot normally, it displays samsung and then it displays android and stuck on it..... and when i try to turn the phone off it turn on by itself again . i have to remove battery so that it wont turn on again... help plz need to know what to do ><
i bet u didnt do a " wipe cache partition" try it and report.....and remember that the first boot takes a bit long( the cm7 boot animation goes on and on )
and is your phone gt s5830 or gt s5830i???? bcoz the cm7 rom is ONLY for gts5830
reply fast...
Are you sure you did that with Cwm 5, and not the stock recovery???
If not, install Cwm 5, wipe everything, install Cm 7.2, reboot.
Then reboot again in recovery, and install Gapps.
Done!
Edit: Don not forget to mount system and data before flashing gapps.

anyone can tell me what to do plz? i just want to get my phone working again TT
Yeah right. Nowadays people never stop to amaze me. U want to flash cm yet u didnt even know what recovery u use. Didnt the tutoriual u followed mention anything about cm roms needs cwm recovery?
Now my advice would be flashing stock rom via odin and stay with it before u do any more damage to the poor phone. look in the sticky thread or in the dev subforum howto flash stock rom via odin.

[Q] flasching with CMW dont work

Hello,
first of all sorry for my english. I try me best but this is not my native language and i hope everyone can read this .
I have a strange Problem with my I9100 SG2.
I can flash a new FW with ODIN e.g. [ROM][ICS Firmwares] I9100XWLPX [29.08.2012][Android 4.0.4] and the Phone runs very well, but i cant flash anything else.
If flash the Siyah Kernel 4.1.5 with ODIN than i got stuck in a bootloop. I can enter recovery mode and do a wipe but this dont fix the bootloop.
If i try to flash anything else in the recovery mode the flash start and run till 40-70% and than it stops.
The only way to recover the SG2 is to flash a new stock FW like the I9100XWLPX and than i can start the phone and the bootloop is gone.
I have a lot experience with different androids devices and this is the first time where i don't have a solution.
Did someone have a Idear what i can try to flash a custom kernel or rom? What is going wrong?
Maybe i can fix it when i flash a 3-part FW with a PIT file.
kind regards,
Preacher
P.S.: I don't found any thread that can help me.
Did someone have a solution ?
many thx,
Preacher
Hy Preacher. So if i get it right this solves your problem:
Ok here is what to do
1) get into download mode and flash siyah kernel via Odin
2) download a rom.zip and put on ur external sd card using a card reader to connect it to ur pc
3) 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 to installing it).

I tryed this already but the install process stops in the middle of the progress bar.
Than i can only recover the Phone if i install a Stock ROM via Odin. I used a 4.0.4 an test the memory with a tool from the play store and the emmc brick toll told me that i dont have chip that is responsible for the brick bug.
What happens if the install hold between 40-70% and don't go any further.
many thx,

Hhm ok then. We should go deeper. Please show me the errors you get. Try to install a rom via cm-recovery and try to attach logcat then it crash.
To save a log to a file,
adb logcat > logcat.txt

[Q] Help me please.. Galaxy s2 stuck on boot logo...

I am a newbie from Nepal. I dont have much knowledge of flashing. A week ago i tried to flash CMW recover while i was in resurrection remix JB rom. Till then i am not able to start my phone because it freezes at "Samsung Galaxy S2" logo... Now i dont know the CSC, PDA and kernel version of my mobile. So please help me solve my problem, how can i make it work?
Boot into recovery (Turn phone off. Then hold home/power/volume up) & do a wipe/factory reset. Or if you have a recent backup (or any backup) restore that from recovery. I've done this a couple of times over the past few mths when my phone has spontaneously bootlooped.
didnt help

In that case flash any stock rom you like. I gather you'll be going back to a custom rom pretty quickly in any case (?) so it doesn't matter. Whatever you do tho, do not flash a PIT.

All I can do is download a rom which is in zip format, but i know odin does not support .zip but it supports .tar, so how can i download rom in .tar, also does it matter if I flashed the rom which is not meant for my region?(I mean I dont know my phone's PDA and I am not able to decide which firmware to download since every firmware has its own specific PDA)... Yes, I'll be going back again to custom rom after I make it work...haha
AFAIK a rom for another country wont break your phone, but be careful with 4.0.4 roms because of the brickbug

go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3 and choose the stock or even another stock rom you wish, download it.
Boot into download mode and flash the single .tar file through odin, flashing instructions can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
PD: if the downloaded file is .zip and not .tar, just extract the zip and u'll get the .tar

He means don't do a wipe/factory reset from recovery while you're running that kernel. Once you switch to a custom kernel you can relax tho.

Parameter is incorrect error can be caused by either of two reasons
1 . something is wrong with the file you downloaded try re downloading
2.Kies is interfering with Odin, terminate Kies from the background by using the task manager.

What cwm and bootloader do you have installed?? you need the 6.1..... cwm and the ICS bootloader from http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/
And yes you can go back to stock ics by using odin, wipe data/cashe/dalvik and then flash the cwm in odin, the bootloader in odin, kernel isn't needed because it's a build-in kernel and then the ROM
Thanks 4 ur reply sir...i used CWM 5.8. and i didnt installed bootloader.sry i dont know sme technical terms.i updated official ics from samsung .and rooted by odin.
Can u give/post the link for 6.1cwm????whether i install any kernel separately???

For cwm 6.1, download the recovery.tar and the bootloader4_0_4, flash it on odin on the PDA section, BUT ONLY USE CM10 with THIS!!!! Also download the ROM and also flzdh this under PDA
you can find stock ics firmware on http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ stock firmware should revert everything, unroot/unbrick
