Hi!
I have trouble with my S5830i. I bought broken phone who has bootlop at the first screen with logo of samsung and name of phone.
Xrecovery and Download Mode is working but my PC do'nt recognize it. Windows shows samsung like "Unknown Device", i tried every avaiable firmwares, kies, but still doesn't work. I think that problem is with bootloader but I don't know how to fix it?
After launching Xrecovery shows this text:

Check the drivers. make sure you have a good usb cable. sometimes when you are using usb cable other than samsung, the phone is not recognised.

I checked drivers for hundret times and i'm using samsung usb cable :/
Has maybe anyone another ideas?
Try choose another kernel*zip, Its can fix the problem !
I tried to do that. But after flash CWM and the kernel.img.zip and reboot I can't use buttons to control CWM(volume up and down), buttons are working correctly it's something with CWM...
Is now any sollutions to back to the stock recovery or fix CWM v5.0.2.6 without using PC?

First Delete all preinstall drivers and then connect your phone to PC let wait some time your PC will recognize it Automaticaly then take down your phone into recovery Mode do wipe data/cache then take down into download mode and connect it to PC then Flash the Stock ..
Hope these helps

Thanks everyone but it seems there is no way for me to get to ODIN now as the usb is still unfixed. It appears to me that it was from MIUI which doesnt support usb mount.after i flash it to Ics resurrection..everything's fine now except for the usb part :/
Hi guys,
First of all sorry for bad english.
I turned my dives of because it was stuck when deinstalling an app.
Now, when i boot it, the boot animation comes, then the samsung logo,then the boot animation and so on.
My device is rooted. I had a backup with cwm but when i restore it it says:
Checking MD5 sums...
Restoring system...
Restoring data...
Error mounting /data!
Skipping format...
Can't mount /data!
But this backup worked before...
I tried to flash a new firmware with odin but odin won't recognize my device in download/odin mode.
What can i do? I searched for 5 hours now...
Thx for answers
Odin must recognize your device if you are in download mode.Just wait a moment and he will.If not try to change the usb port.
When you see the com in yellow tick repartition select you pda and flash
Even i had the same problem there r 3 things u can change
1:change your connecting cable
2:reinstall samsung drivers and then try again
3:change ports
Even after u flash stock firmware it does bootloop then do a factory reset from stock recovery
This should work

Inserts batery.
Run odin as adm.

did you try to do a factory to do a factory reset from stock recovery
How it worked
Thank for your help guys, i figured that maybe doing this in a virtual machine was not a good idea...
But thats the recipe:
1. Try to AWAYS use the drivers that automatically install when you plug in your phone, because the samsung drivers I downloaded didn't work
for me.
2. NEVER install new drivers on top of the old ones; always deinstall the old ones first.
3. Try again and again and again! Don't stop after the first five times trying.

you guy deserve an oscar for waking up a dead thread (the thread is from november last year...) and we have THIS SECTION FOR QUESTIONS LIKE YOURS ... use it... and stop waking up such corpse..
sorry bro...
I'm new to this kind of stuff.thanks for the link brother.
Hello community, I need your help.
I have a Samsung S3 GT-I9300 (not rooted) and the problems began with a sometimes flickering display at approximately ~60% accumulator loading state.
The phone went off. After that the S3 could be switched on and worked ok.
Over 2 months the intervals for that behaviour became shorter and were more frequent.
Then on one day a message appeared such as that a new OS will be installed although NO new OS was downloaded!
I misinterpreted the situ, carried out NO backup and the following was that the S3 is now stuck on the samsung logo.
After removing the accumulator this ended and after reinserting the samsung logo appeared again.
The next behaviour was I connected the S3 via USB cable to load the accumulator then suddenly the accumulator symbol stayed gray and freezed.
I tried to reconnect, nothing changed. (I loaded the accumulator with the S3 of my friend and it worked)
Also now I cannot connect via USB with a PC, which worked always before the "crash".
Then I tried to enter the recovery mode.
The displayed message was:
Android system recovery (3e)
Volume up/down to move highlight;
power button to select.
reboot system now
apply update from ADB
apply update from external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
---------------------------------------------------------------

# MANUAL MODE #
-- Appling Multi-CSC...
E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)
can't mount '/system' (Invalid argument)
E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Obviously the S3 is no more bootable. Probably caused by a hardware defect...
My next idea was to install a file manager to save the datafiles (contacts, whatsapp chats, viber chats, telegram chats, etc.)
I found an information about the AROMA-Filemanager (e.g. aromafm-1.91.zip) which is stated to work by booting from the external SD-card.
The displayed message was then:
-- Install / sdcard ...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifiying update package...
E:signature verification failed
E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)
-- Appling Multi-CSC...
E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)
can't mount '/system' (Invalid argument)
Installation aborted.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So now I'm really helpless, what to do to get access to the datafiles...
The outlined facts:
1. there ist no working booting system on the S3
2. the usb port is not working
3. AROMA-Filemanager on SD card does not work
The essential question for me is compared to PC's: is it possible to get successfully access to the system such as 'knoppix software' for pc partitions?
What is the meaning of -- Appling Multi-CSC... ??
Is there a chance to flash e. g. an OI File Manager??
Try to flash the stock ROM using Kies.
Open Kies and select the option similar to 'Initilize' from the menu bar.
You need to plug the phone to the PC via USB cable after booting into the download mode.
Before that, make a note of the S/N of your phone which is at the back of the phone. Will be visible after removing the battery.
Kies will ask for this S/N so after entering the S/N the process starts.
Check if this works. But your old data in your internal storage will be lost.
....there is no working USB connection!!!

===> Sorry to say that,
your tip is useless!
actually I kept on trying to clarify if it is really not possible to connect the S3 via USB with a PC.
Approximately after a minute S3 connected via USB with the PC the connect sound appeared and after a second appeared again. . .
. . . so I connected and disconnected. . . and on and on . . .
Then after more tries the connect sound appeared and in the Windows devicemanager the 2 entries popped up!
. . .
- Portable Devices
- GT-I9300
.
.
- USB-Controller
- SAMSUNG Mobile USB Composite Device
But in ADB
with the adb command
adb usb
the result was
error: device not found
so no connection could be established. . .
Has anyone proposals???
stuck on samsung logo
im using s3 i9300. i ****ed up my phone ...
if i upgrade using kies than network dont work
if i install any other rom it goes into insane bootloop.
than i try different things...now i cant open my recovery even through...its stuck on samsung logo
what should i do??

@ rp158
Yes, the downloadmode is easily accessible by buttons . . .
@Maclane: ...and you've for moments USB-connection PC-phone. So try the usual things:
1. Use the USB-port of the motherboard of PC.
2. Deinstall Odin and all Samsung-drivers.
3. Goto sammobile.com (not the mobile version), choose your phone & country and find your actual firmware, matching Odin-version and drivers. Download & install them and try to connect again between Odin & phone.
4. Flash the firmware. Good luck.

as mentioned already above: No, I cannot establish a working connection between S3 and PC to work with !
with regard to install new firmware I can only use the SDcard!
with regard to the procedure: Now that is not the question! ==> as already stated in my opening: my focus is to save the old datas.
if I flash new firmware, all is lost!
kind regards
use of launcher for oi file manager
Hello community,
what about the following concept:
To save the old datas, is it possible to install a launcher on the SD card e. g. for working with the oi file manager on the smartphone / SD card without damaging / deleting the old datas?
How this could be realised?
Does this make sense?
kind regards

Ok, its in your usb connector, its kinda broken, i saw a fix for galaxy S1 woth this problem
You take a toothpick and look inside you micro usb connector and you will se a "tongue", gently push that "tongue" up with a toothpick or anything non-metalic and see if it works
Cheers!!!
I've got no idea what could go wrong.
I've tried to flash S228 with Flash Tool, after that phone briked.
There is a bootloop at lenovo logo at the start.
TWRP starts OK, but when I try to install anything using TWRP i got an error message "Unable to mount /data", "Unable to mount /emmc"
Now when I try to flash anything using Flash Tool computer does not see the phone when I reset it (red button) and plug it using usb cable, so reflash is not possible
please help, any ideas?
solved, sorry for this post.
the problem was broken usb cable.
