There is a simple method of rooting using supersu and cwm files.
U can flash this files from stock recovery.
Once u install this files u will ve cwm recovery. Then factory reset n wipe cache n dalvik cache.
Your os will load out of boot loop.
Surely it will work.
Follow instructions carefully.

Just boot phone into download mode and flash Siyah kernel via odin and then you will have recovery and root, simple.

Try volume up and power, basically every button combo you can till it gets into download mode (I think it's different on the 5830i.
99% of roms on this forum are for the 5830 only :/

[Q] Guys Help Super Bricked My Phone

Guys I was flashing few roms and then what I did I used odin to flash my ICS official rom that I downloaded from Samfire and now my tablet i.e. Samsung Galaxy Tab gt p6200 or 10.1 is just struck on the samsung logo n it is restarting by it on and then again struck to the logo. I can access recovery and download mode. I think hard reset would correct it but when m going in recovery mode then its clearing cache but not hard resetting it, the same is with CWM. I tries to flash with bootloader in odin but that also did not worked. I tried to flash honeycomb rom but then also the same error. Pls help me guys its really important! M Scared :crying:

I hope you've flashed correct rom for your tablet.
If not try to flash stock rom for your tablet, and do wipes(cache, data) from stock recovery

[Q] Soft Bricked my GT-I9300/No ClockworkMod-Recovery

Hello everyone,
I recently bought the international version GT-I9300 simlock free running android 4.1.2 build JZ054K I9300 00XXELL4 . I researched how to root my device and I successfully did so using the Samsung GS3 Toolkit v7.0 selecting the 4.1.2 build JZ054k I9300 ELLA. I then proceeded to download ROM Manager to use the application to download the stable 9.1.0 Cyanogenmod from my internal memory where I had saved the document. This is when things started going bad. I did not wipe data/factory reset the device before I started uploading the costumROM. I am now in a boot loop where I constantly see the facy boot animation of CM 9.1.0. no matter what I do. I have entered system recovery only to find that I have access only to the standard android system recovery <3e>. I tried to wipe data/factory reset and to restore my device using a stock samsung file that I reflashed using Odin 3.0.7, to no avail. Many different reflash attempt later, including the original 9.1.0. cyanogenmod file and a nightly build version 10.1, I ran out of inspiration. I would be very grateful for any suggestion to what to do. Still have access to download and recovery mode however not with ClockworkMod-Recovery.
TL;DR:
I soft bricked my I9300 as I am in a boot loop with CM 9.1.0 . Only have access to download mode and system recovery <3e>. What do?
Thanks in advance
Download stock i9300XXELLA from here http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-I9300&pcode=BTU&os=1&type=1#firmware you will need to register to download the file
Boot into recovery and do a factory reset then boot into download mode and install via Odin,
The root using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957273 zip is in post 3
The use this for recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943592 instead of CWM
Thanks a lot for such a quick reply. I'm going to try it out immediately.

Cant boot into cwm recovery
Even i cannot boot into cwm recovery. I have tried three different cwm recovery files and now i'm really afraid to give any more tries.
Same thing is hapenning to me. I can't install CWM. And ODIN does not shows any error ?
The same problem is with me too. Whenever I boot it recovery mode instead of going into cwm recovery mode, it shows 'no command' & then boots into android system recovery.
Someone please help me with this. I want to install cwm recovery so as to install a good custom ROM for my Samsung Galaxy Grand-i9082.

Unable to install custom Rom

Dear members,
I have been installing and using custom roms on my i9300 (32gb) for over a year now. just a few days ago, i installed a stock rom through odin after encountering a problem with wifi from one of the custom roms. The stock rom i installed is;
Version: 4.1.2
Baseband: i9300UBEMH1
BUILD: JZO54K.I9300UBEMH2
phone became smooth again with wifi problem resolved. however one problem arised..now i cannot install any custom rom. i tried rooting thorugh cf-root and installing recovery through odin n all other methods including the s3 toolkit. the root on aforementioned rom works absolutely fine but as soon as i try installing a custom rom through twrp or cwm, the system shows no error while installing but as soon as recovery reboots,the phone gets stuck on samsung logo.
please help!!!
Using latest philz recovery, wipe for new rom then format internal sd card. Install firmware then leave first boot for at least 5 minutes.
If it still doesn't work then check efs partition, possibly downgrade boot loader.

ok i will check the philz recovery...plus there is no boot loop of rom stuck on boot logo..the phone gets stuck on the "Samsung galaxy siii" logo and does not proceed.
i would greatly appreciate if u can guide me or point me to the thread for downgrading bootloader...i think its the bootloader issue.
