i get an endless bootloop, i flashed a new firmware to try and fix it, but to no avail, any solutions?
do you think its bricked? i mean it powers on, i can access cwm, download mode
i tried this also
. Start your phone in CWM Recovery
2. Go to Advanced
3. Choose "Wipe dalvik-cache"
4. Now go to "Mounts & Storage"
5. Choose "Wipe /cache"
6. Reboot your phone
if the problems still exists after doing that and you're sure it's not related to the rom, then you need to do this:
1. Start your phone in CWM Recovery
2. Now go to "Mounts & Storage"
3. Choose "Wipe /data"
4. Choose "Wipe /cache"
5. Reboot your phone
to no avail. lol. i guess i will have to be buying me a new s3
(other roms wont get past boot loop also)

Hi,
I've got a serious problem with my smartphone SGSII. I wanted to get rid of the custom ROM I sued for some several months, Lite'ning ROM because something strange happened after the last update 6.1, my battery it was drained in 1 day without using the phone or something. So I decided to get back to the original Gingerbread rom, factory settings restore. SO I restored to the factory defautl settings, wipped via CWM all the user data and then still had the Lite'ning ROM installed. I used Odin and flashed the latest original ROM I think but when I start the mobile it's turning off and on again by itself.
I really need help and support to solve this issue. I want my original OS/firmware back. Can't use Kies because of the phone I can't turn it on.
Thanks in advance.
Factory restore = restore to last flashed rom = Lightning .
Boot to recovery wipe dalvik cache wipe cache Factory restore flash stock rom if needed via Odin .

Ok thanks dude
I will try
Trying to install themes on the S2 and everytime I keep getting bootloop no matter what theme it is. Tried an ICS and also the Ultratoxic themes
What I am thinking of doing is a wipe data/ factory reset in ClockworkMod mode then load up the Rom via Odin and then flash the theme
Will this work or does the wipe data also delete the back ups created with CWM?
Anything else that maybe causing boot loop?
On UltraToxic Rom and latest Siyah Kernel
The bootloop might be caused if you use a SystemUI.apk/Framework different than the one supported by the ROM.

If the theme is not made for you rom, then you get bootloops.
If the theme is made for you rom and you still get bootloops, wipe the cache and chances are it will boot.

First of all root your phone and boot to recovery.
1.Go to "Advanced" and wipe Battery Stats.
2.Go back and go to "Mounts and Storage" and format System,Cache and Data
3.Go back wipe Cache Partition and do a factort reset and reboot your phone.
Your phone wont go past the boot logo so after 1min pull the battery,wait 20sec,put it back in and boot into download mode.Now flash a firmware or your choice and it will be like a factory new phone.
oke first how do do a clean slade ,why backup data I don't want anything,mount what does that mean

If the basics are beyond your understanding i cannot help .
If you format phone via dial *2767*3855#
or *#*#4636#*#*
And format sd card via Windows PC usb mass storage .

1.Clean Slate means wiping everything,back to zero.
2.Do a backup if you want to save something or if something goes wrong you can get your phone back via recovery mode.If you dont want to save anything then dont do a backup.
3.Things like Mounts and Storage you will see in the recovery menu.To get to the recovery menu you need to be rooted first the hold Power+Volume up+Home buttom at the same time untill a menu pops up.
Follow my ealier post and your will be fine.If not PM me.
Hello,
Before flashing a new kernel today, I kept getting random reboots and and I thought the kernel might be playing up (I didnt install any new apps or modify anything before hand). So I installed the latest Siyah kernel (Siyah-v3.2-CWM) and now when I load up my phone, I go past the lock screen and I just keep getting multiple closed messages for different applications. I also cant open any of them as I get a message saying "Unfortunately, [app name] has stopped".
I cant open Titanium Backup so Im screwed
Please help.
I have also tried wiping both caches but it hasnt worked / reset init.d file (if that helps?)
Flash back your old kernel, at least you'll be back where you started.

Hello every one.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S III international 16 gig white.
Yesterday I tried to flash FoxHound 1.1 on my device & because this version is full wipe I must flash the I9300XXBLG1.
After ending installing FoxHound 1.1 I face with a lot of FC & I couldn't play any games like Max Payne ,N.O.V.A 3 & etc.
When I play any game I face strange error!
After that problems I tried change ROM & fix my device but when I flashed every ROM & after factory reset with code the language of my device is same Philippians in I9300XXBLG1 & I have that error in Games.
I tried every thing like Full wipe ,Format system,reset Factory with code,flashing with PIT,install CM9(I fix same problem in S II by flashing CM9 or AOSP rROMs but in S III...) & etc.
Now I have this issue & need a solution.
What is your Answer?
SORRY For my poor English.
With 30 posts you should ask in that rom thread re its problems .
Its noticeable that flashing multiple roms to fix a problem cannot work .
