wipe dalvik, fix permissions
with no avail. Can someone please help
Try flashing back to stock ICS with Odin. Then root and do all necessary steps. After you do all that DL the ROM you want and wipe data, cache, wipe system and dalvick cache. Now flash the ROM. Reboot phone, let it sit for at least 10 minutes. Try that and see if it helps.

Just finished trying that. flashed the stock back in but now the stock has also gone unstable. even small things like accessing the settings menu causes a reboot. Almost turning into a nightmare. Thanks for your help
Are you using correct technique? A factory reset the wiping all caches? What baseband is in the About Phone?
The fastest way to recover is to use Kies firmware and initialization to clean it up.
I read through many threads and followed the technique described there in but seems like when I flashed the black star rom something messed up. I am unsure what. Is there any way to get the phone to the default state? Thanks in advance for all your help with this nightmare

I did put the stock back on using odin but the same problem is happening with stock now. I have the lg3 baseband now listed above could that be the cause?

Yes, that is a t-mobile modem. If you are at&t you want the LF6 modem.
Kies emergency firmware recovery will restock your phone.
Thanks to all for your help.
Whoa.....finally nightmare ended. I used the instructions in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1731654worked like a charm and got back my phone.
Even though I have the ATT baseband LF6 Tmo calling sill works fine
Mods: please close this thread
I had the same problem but the AT&T guy had me call the AT&T support line and they sent a replacement without even asking me to do troubleshooting.

Hi! I have the Erygit ROM on my SGP 5.0 (with the physical button in the middle) how can i go back to Android 2.3.5?Can somebody help me?Thank you for your help

See which one of the files fits your device. I think it's the international EU version for you.
thank you. i flashed it but i got into bootloop... tried to go to recovery... in the recovery i got many red lines (errors i think) about cache files or something like that.what should i do now?
Wait hold on I tried to flash Erygits ROM with ODIN but it failed and I soft-bricked it. I don't know what to do, I'm looking for solutions.
Well... Looks like we both need a solution :s

I couldn't get out of my soft-brick. Every thing I did resulted in a FAIL in Odin.
So i reset data and wiped everything and then it just booted.
Unfortunately I lost everything. Luckily I made a back-up, but somehow my contacts were removed from KIES
So i have to back up up everything and after flashing the rom , wipe cache and do a factory reset?

Well I don't know if you had, but I softbricked my player so I did a desperate thing by removing all data and cache. Then it was fine. I still have my music, photo's and video's though and my contacts (google contacts).
But I'm not sure about you. Look for bootloop threads on this forum, maybe you will find help?
I will try to help you too.
well i decided to flash Erygits rom one more time, then it booted i think i'll leave it until ICS is released or CM7 do you have the stock rom on your Player?
Yes I have the stock rom now.
And I think it's a good idea to just leave it untill cm9 comes out.
CM is going to be soooooooooo nice! can't wait to flash it
Do you guys have the INTL, EU or the US version?
You can't mix the ROMs between these ver. (especially the US ver, which is physically different - has capacitive home btn).
If you have a US device, than download this PIT, and this ROM, I installed it and works great, it's a rooted 2.3.6.
Hi!i have the eur version i think... With the physichal button in the middle

Good morning guys. I'm having trouble with my Samsung galaxy SGH-I777. Every time I open an app that uses he camera (ie camera, barcode scanner, flashlight, camera) he flash goes off then it just reboots he phone. I've already done a factory restore. I even went into recovery mode and wipe cache and did a restore from there. I've also just downloaded the new ICS update and it still didn't fix the problem. Please help
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda app-developers app
when you say factory restore does that mean you completely wiped the phone and flashed back to stock rom. If not, that's what I would do to determine if we're looking at a hardware or software issue.
No I didn't flash it back to stock. How would I even do that?

I would flash back to stock. If it still does it, bring it in to at&t service center and show them. They can give you a replacement. Or you can call them. Just make sure your on non rooted stock firmware.
a full wipe and reflash is required before posting any problems. because99 % of the time it's user error. Did you fully wipe system, cache, data, and run the kernel cleaning scriptbefore posting this issue?

Yes. I did a full wipe and restore. Installed a new rom and still nothing can I maybe install a new camera apk?

IF this is happening across roms, and assuming correct firmware, with a clean install (factory reset, no misc apps installed) then I'd say you have a hardware problem. If you've flashed incorrect firmware then a reset won't help you until you flash back to the correct firmware. Of course all of this moot if its physical damage caused by dropping the phone or maybe water damage. If you're completely stock and haven't subjected the phone to any physical abuse, then return the phone for a new one.

This.
Run fix permissions in recovery (last resort).
i recently installed via odin the stock jellybean release rom on my phone along with cfroot and simunlocker.
i have found the stock jellybean rom to have a few too many bugs for my liking and want to go back to stock ics.
I have downloaded the stock ics rom latest release and tried to flash it again using odin in the pda box, it all seems to go fine but then the phone only seems to reboot as far as the samsung logo then stops.
What have i done wrong and how do i fix it please (or should i just be waiting longer for it to boot from the samsung logo?)
thanks
Try boot into recovery and factory reset.

just re- flash stock (yes stock OFFICIAL) look on the on the general thread. and once done, try boot into recovery and will most likely get into it. Then wipe data (formats SD card) and wipe cache, then reboot and all will be fine. I always re-flash stock TWICE when coming from AOSP/AOKP/CM10 and always wipe data.
I have a note 2 that I kept stock for a long time. And decided to root it about a week ago. I used the latest casual one click root. And it seemed all dandy initially until i went between a few different roms and it decided it wanted to shut off randomly and not boot back up past the note 2 screen on its own. But the odd part was it booted while connected to the wall or to the computer. So I flashed to 4.1.2 stock via odin and the issue still remains. I can only use it fine on charger. Is there something else im missing on flashing back to stock?

Hmm when you installed 4.3 did you do so wiping everything could be an app causing the problem. Try it from brand new with no apps installed and see if that helps. Could be also a radio issue as well.
Sent from my XT1060 using Tapatalk
Yeah I wiped everything. Actually used odin twice to revert to stock 4.1.2. I tried a few cm nightlies before it began. Is there anything else I should flash on top of whats already been done?

I've found that even after using ODIN to go back to stock 4.1.2, that there's still leftover data on the phone from custom ROM's. I've read where others had the same issue. I don't know why Odin doesn't seem to fully wipe everything ... but this has been my personal experience.
The way I've fixed this (and all this may not be necessary).. . is that after Odin'ing back to stock 4.1.2, I boot into stock recovery, then do a full factory reset and wipe cache. Then I booted into the stock Rom and used the bypass setup trick (touch the left side of the screen right above Emergency... then right side, then left, then right again, and then volume up... this should bypass setup to save time).
Then went into phone's settings and performed a factory reset from within the stock Rom too...
Finally... (because I'm a bit OCD... so this is probably not necessary), but I ODIN'd back to stock 4.1.2 one more time and then proceeded with using CASUAL again to root /unlock the bootloader).
I know this is a pain in the butt... but this has worked for me. Maybe others will have some better suggestions.
(Edit : Forgot to mention that if you're not wanting to return to stock to start over again... check out this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53624921) on how to flash a stock recovery for the purposes of doing a proper data wipe... then can you odin your custom recovery back to the device without having to fully restore to stock... this can be a real time saver. Please make sure to thank the OP for the helpful info).
So in the end I tried to reset from stock recovery and wipe cache. Than do a reset from the settings and the issue presisted. But now I have root and recovery as well. So I may give a rom a try.

This is totally a guess, but I'm thinking that you may have a battery problem... and it's just a coincidence that these problems started happening around the same time that you rooted. You may try replacing the battery to see if that fixes things.... (you can get one pretty cheap off ebay or Amazon).
Yeah thats odd. I had bought another battery from a phone store I use to work at and have no issues now, back on 4.1.1 rooted.
