I recently got a galaxy player 5 international with froyo. I rooted it with no problems, but when I tried to flash a kernel with cwm recovery it would get stuck in a boot loop unless i went into the cwm recovery mode. I noticed that the kernel I used, rumirand's r14, was based off of GB and thought that might be my problem. I tried updating my firmware to GB using WT Ho's custom rom, and now it just hangs on the samsung logo, but I can still get into cwm. I made sure to wipe both caches and wipe data before installing the rom. Is this fixable or have I turned it into an expensive paperweight?
Did you try a factory reset?
I am not expert but i tried the same with R14 kernel and bricked but done the same with R13 and it worked .

Now or before installing the rom? I did a factory reset before installing, but I haven't done one since.

I just flashed the R13 kernel, but I'm still in the same situation.
Instead of flashing a new kernel there should be factory reset option on the first set you have or in "mounts and storage"
I had this problem once and I managed to solve it flashing a full rom (like 2.3.5 rooted and with rj kernel). It seems some users are having problems when flashing only the kernel. After you solve the problem, flash back group rom.
I just tried the rom+kernel. It said it was successful but it must not have been because it was hanging on boot again, and now it won't respond to the power button. If I plug it in to the computer it gets an image of a battery turns off and repeats.

Can you go back to CWM after flashing rom+kernel? If yes, usually it is a matter of wiping the data and Dalvik cache. Which ROM+Kernel did you flashed?

My P500 hasn't been co-operating AT ALL lately. Every custom ROM that I flash and try out gets stuck in bootloops after rebooting. I don't flash anything apart from what the developer says to flash, but I always get stuck on bootloops. Also, whenever I try restoring a nandroid backup, it gets stuck in a bootloop as well. Every reboot causes a bootloop. What am I doing wrong?

It could be your sd card causes. Try to use another sd card and install a rom. Just a suggestion.

Hm, never thought of that. I'll test it out tonight and I'll get back to you.
Do you clear data, and system and boot before flashing?

Bootlop is normal when recovering a nandroid backup trough cwm
Try wipping cache, dalvik cache, data and /system, them flash.

Yeah, I do all the prerequisities everytime I flash a new ROM. Wipe Data, Cache, dalvik, /System, but it still bootloops.
Right now I'm on CM7.2 Nightly with Stock kernel, but I wanna test some other ROMs to help out with development. Of course, I can't because of this bootloop issue.

Use amonra. It is better than cwm 5.0.2.7

bootloops
try flashing a lg 2.3.3 stock rom then flash something else i had the same problem that fixed it
I already am using AmonRa - forgot to mention.
I did notice in the phone info for each ROM I use, the baseband would have some weird characters like ".\*@ ../?" rather than the "LGP500 V20G etc etc" that it should have. So, I re-flashed the new baseband via LGMDP.exe and now I'm using the AOPK APHONETHATIUSE custom ROM and it seems to be fine.
I also did reformat and partition the SD card just to be sure that there's no problems with that.
I'll use it for a while and I'll see what happens.
I had the same problem flash it with v20g first with kdz and u can use it in any manner; )

Hello,
I was trying to do a factory reset on my S2, and I noticed it doesn't delete my other files (Music, Photos, Etc.) but it does reset my apps installed. Because I want to totally erase my files, I went to recovery mode and did a wipe, and I think I may have wiped the data, system, dalvic, etc on the process. And now my phone wont boot up. It is stuck at the Siyah logo (Because I flashed siyah on it before and it was a success). After this, I tried to flash siyah again into my device and its still stuck. I dont know what to do anymore, I also tried factory resetting using recovery mode. I have flashed other kernels but it still doesn't work. BTW I am using a jelly bean device

Hello sir, sorry if I disturbed your sleep XD no I did not flash a ROM. I just flashed a kernel using ODIN. Should I flash a ROM?
If I flash a new ROM, say the latest Snapdragon for S2 will the kernel be included in the package? I still cant pass the logo screen even though I have flashed different kernels

Thanks Sir Slim, I will try to flash the Snapdragon ROM as soon as after I finish downloading it. Because I believe I have cleared out the operating system and other important data on my device, that's why I need a new ROM.
Hi mate,
Do you run a stock ROM on your phone like you didnt flash any custom ROM on it....
Did you check if the SIYAH kernel you flashed on your device has STOCK ROM support, cause if the siya kernel you flashed has no support for stock rom it will just stay on the siyah logo the whole day until it drains out your battery.....
if you want to go to this website : http://dorimanx.shine.sk/ and dowload the v8.xxx those got stock rom support..... then do a wipe data factory reset....
if your phone booted up, and want to you wipe the phone completely, go to settings and do a factory reset there, your phone will prompt you if you want to wipe the memory card too.... put a check on it then follow the steps okay....

Thank you sir! You are right that I did not have a custom ROM when I installed the Siyah kernel. Maybe that's the reason I was stuck

Hi, all!
I have that annoying problem with all the 4.3 ROM I've tried with no exception. Everything is fine until the first reboot. Then it's stuck on the first Galaxy SIII boot logo. I'm using TWRP - the latest version if it matters.
I always wipe everything first.
Please give more details on how you flash it.

If you did all required wipes and followed the instructions did you try a different recovery? I read in the SB thread for example of people having issues with TWRP

I always wipe data, cash, dalvik cash, system. Then install the ROM and gapps...
After the restart I set up the google account and etc. And after the first restart the phone freezes. That's all.
I'll try with different recovery.
PS. I've just tried CWM recovery 6.0.3.3. and Omega AOSP v9. Still the same.
Try cwm 6.0.3.6 and after you install the rom and after its set up go to recovery and factory reset

That's strange, I run Philz recovery and every 4.3 flash till now went through without issue.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I tried all the recoveries I could find. Including Philz. Still the same.
And something else strange. I installed CWM, CWM, touch and Philz and with them I made backups. After restoration of the backup the phone freezes. I also tried to install Omega 49 and the installation goes OK, but freezes before the first start-up.
The only solution was to install manually TWRP (Odin) to restore some of my old backups. I'm beginning to think that there is something wrong with my phone. It's black if it is important.
Suggest total wipe of phone install your stock rom and test
Hi,
I just want to say I'm also having the same problem.
Started using TWRP with full wipe, same issue on 4.3 and no issues on 4.2.
On latest CWM same problem and 4.2 wont even pass the first boot on Samsung logo.
Also had to use Odin to get back on TWRP and flash a 4.2 rom again.
Anyway there is one more thing I would like to try but haven't had the chance to do so, is installing the latest modem and ril. But I'm kind skeptic about that currently because there is also some risks and my S3 is my daily driver.
Don't change the ril on any custom as you stand a big chance of breaking the calls and Tex's. Modem yes but not ril. Do change to cwm and retry.

You are doing a full wipe?. System and data is the main thing to wipe not just factory reset. So go into mounts and storage and format data,system and cache there then flash the rom /gapps.

I have a Galaxy S2 intl version. I was on carbon rom with siyah kernel. All was fine then suddenly it force reboots. but while rebooting it just didn't happen. Nothing happened. The screen logo just flashes for a second and then disappears, and then nothing happens. I tried entering the recovery mode, but doesn't enter the recovery mode. The download mode is working just fine. So I flashed a custom rom with siyah kernel using ODIN, hoping it would help, but nothing seems to happen though both rom and kernel are flashing perfectly alright! Please help me recover my phone guys. Would be extremely grateful, please!
Don't use siyah on custom roms. Flash Dorimanx 9.xx through odin . Recovery should now work. Go into recovery and factory reset clear the caches and reboot. Should work fine after this.
Remember
Dorimanx 8.xx is for stock and custom rom
Dorimanx9.xx is for custom only.

Okay so I left my phone overnight, with the battery pulled out. I had flashed a stock rom before going to sleep. And i woke up and just put the battery back in to flash Dorimanx, and, something happened. The phone entered recovery mode :cyclops: I had been trying to get in the damn thing for the whole day yesterday, and today it happened, so i did as you said, wiping all that, and rebooted the phone. In a little odd fashion though, but it booted up and the setup process started, and it's working fine now. So, now I'm on a custom rom JB 4.1.2 and siyah kernel. I want a stable 4.3 on my phone. What can I do, sir? I dont wanna run into trouble again, so what would be a safe way?

Okay now I'm really sorry it's starting to bug you but my phone seems to develop new problems every time I reboot. Now, I havent changed anything, On a stock rom with siyah kernel. and i rebooted, and stuck again! I am able to enter recovery mode though (CWM recovery) and download mode also. BUT, now what happens when I boot is, the samsung logo shows with the triangle and, the boot tune plays but there's nothing on the screen, it's just black, and a few secs later, it gives a small vibration, all still with the phone screen black. Later i get to know that my phone has apparently turned on, but the screen is not showing anything. I called my cell and to my surprise it rings meaning its actually ON!! Why is the screen not ON then?? Please help, kind sir! Also if you could provide me with links to the required kernels/roms or whatever else required. Eagerly awaiting your saviour reply! :crying:

Hey, problem solved now, dont know what it was though! What i did was flash the Carbon rom with siyah, and it booted and then i flashed dorimanx and its working fine now. But the gapps package is reacting weirdly. I flashed it perfectly and when i reboot, it says "Google + stopped working" and then i check the app menu and there's no google apps whatsoever. http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip I then installed play store apk and it opened up and looked fine but then that is all it did! It won't download anything. What shall I do?
