My phone won't go passed the 'Samsung' black screen. I have tried flashing a stock rom with Odin. I have tried using emergency recovery in KIES but the phone is not being picked up by it. I flashed and rooted the phone to unlock the SIM yesterday and everything was fine until I hard reset it (instead of factory resetting it by accident) because I plan to sell it to a friend on a different network.
I've been at this for nearly 20 hours now following numerous different tutorials and I have no idea what to do now. I am new to this kind of thing but I think I'm definitely out of my depth here. I can still get the phone into download mode so I know it's salvageable.
Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General, 3 part firmware linked to in thread, download, flash with Odin (this will wipe your phone). Failure to flash ? Go through the troubleshooting steps in the thread over & over & over (if necessary; all of them, including multiple PC's, if you don't fix it with the info in that thread, you won't be fixing it).
There's no easy fix here; if it's recoverable (and most of these are), they're fixed with perseverance. Those which aren't recoverable are NAND corrupted & require a motherboard replacement to fix.
Edit - Also, I presume we're talking about an I9100 ? If you have any other model, do not flash that 3 part firmware I referred to above, you will brick your phone if you have another device & you flash it.

Wow, thank you for such a quick response! Yes it is an I9100. I should have been clearer. I'll give that a shot before I try anything else then. Thanks again.

Hello community,
First of all, please don't kill me, start saying I didn't read or search, etc etc etc.
Yes, there are several threads about this, but still nothing has worked as yet. My phone is still on Factory Mode with a Generic IMEI
The history:
1) Phone was under KOR CSC, so I changed it to BTU. Then, I updated to the most recent ROM (4.1.2) from a past 4.0.X
2) Although factory unlocked, it started asking for sim unlock.
3) I went back to a previous ROM (4.0.X) without reading the EFS problem and without making EFS backup.
4) Phone started showing the generic IMEI and factory mode.
5) Flashed again the most recent ROM. Still same IMEI and factory mode.
6) Tried all the fixes I could find around here and other websites and nothing (Copying and replacing EFS contents via different methods, modifying factorymode file via different methods, flashing and re-flashing, rooting and re-rooting, etc). No luck at all!!!
In summary, I ran out of threads to read and still nothing works. I'm tired and desperate. Could you please help a noob, step by step, and see what am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
Flash the latest BTU official rom using odin then factory reset. If that doesn't enable your efs to be read then you will have to pay for a repair, there is no software fix for a corrupt efs.
Reset flash counter flash stock firmware and visit service center

Thanks, for your answer and your useful sticky thread, I have always gone there first. BUT as I said in my original post, I did read and try all of that.
I was just wondering if there was something else to do by myself, before sending to a service repair center (I'm in Trinidad and Tobago and didn't buy the device here, so the chance of getting a reliable service center is slim)
Anyway, thanks everyone for replying!
Cheers,

Not really anything else to try really
Model - GT-I9300
FCC ID A3GTI9300A
SSN I9300GSMH
I've been having so much trouble with my S3 lately. I had to reflash my ROM because at the last official update a few months ago something went wrong for me and I could not access my settings menu (it would open, go to a black screen for a few seconds and then crash).
Wanting to avoid doing something like what I've just seemed to have managed to do, I avoided this for as long as I could, but eventually something went wrong with my APNs and I had to regain access. I found a guide for flashing my phone from here (Google "Downgrade Galaxy S3 to stock JB 4.1.2 XXEMF6 Firmware" on androidgeeks.com) and followed it. Everything seemed to work, and while my phone had full bars on the network, it would not work on the network.
Thinking that this must be something to do with the model number being incorrect I then tried to follow a second guide (the link to which I can't find any more) which had linked the firmware for the I9300GSMH model. Still I can't seem to connect to the network properly.
So I'm not sure, but I'm guessing I'm still flashing with a ROM that's not right for my phone. Can anyone help?

Ah, RTFM... Yea, think I might be f**ked. The IMEI does not match my phones IMEI.
I'd try finding the original stock your phone came with and use odin to flash back to stock. A firmware that matches your exact model and will take it to its factory out of the box state. Small chance but a chance none the less that it will bring your IMEI back. It did for me. (mine was an s4)
Hello everyone,
I did the same mistake again by updating my S2 from GingerBread to IceCreamSandwitch without calibrating the horizontal accelerometere, and now my phone sensor is a bit off "to the left"
(when i play games like " Trial ", the phone is supposed to be in the "normal" position so the rider should not move at all but in my case he is always going back {like am rotating the phone to the left} so i have to rotate the phone about 15 degrees to the right in order to be "normal" )
Unless you have a better solution for this problem cause seriously, why on earth there is only a gyroscope calibration for a device that have more than that sensor >_< !??!
anyway
i would really appreciate if your link me to all the necessary files to downgrade from ICS to GB,
IMPORTANT:
i don't want to root my phone cause i will update to official ICS again
SOLVED
i just need the PDA file which i found my model here : http://www.androidfirmwares.net/
thank you
Maybe post in the dedicated forum for that device lol
You mean you did the same thing on your S2 as you did on your S Advance 6 weeks ago ? If so, go get the rom files you need from Samfirmware, flash with Odin following instructions in thread stickied near top of Q&A titled 'Flash Stock firmware'.
If you're still talking about your S Advance then yeah, you're obviously in the wrong place.

yes that's exactly what happened (am with S2 now) and i actually tried both Samsung-updates and samfirmwares but the search results contain Roms for 4.1.2, 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 i might be searching in the wrong place though so i would really appreciate it if you post a link for me
thank you very much
If you can't find GB firmware at those two places, you can try AndroidFirmwares.net, but they probably won't have what you want either. If they don't, you're probably SOOL; try Google searches or use something else (or do a bunch of XDA searches, you might get lucky & someone might have uploaded it somewhere & linked to it in a thread way back).
Edit - You need to use the pulldown boxes @ Samfirmware better, there's plenty of GB firmwares available. If there isn't one for your country/carrier, you're going to have to use something else.

thanx man i'll keep looking, but just a question, is it really impossible to recalibrate the accelerometer on Android 4.1.2 ?
i am 100% sure that it's not a hardware problem so why there is no way to fix that
No idea, never had a problem with it myself. Hopper8 had issues with it maybe 12 mths ago & searched high/low for a solution went really 'in depth' with it. Maybe search for his threads on that issue/from about that time.

Thank you, i checked that but it seems that he is facing problem with the gyroscope mine is an accelerometer problem (i make casual mobile games for a living and i made a little accelerometer test, it is simple 18 degree "wrong" to the left)
anyway,
i found this website : AndroidFirmwares.net - News and am downloading this firmware the bad news is that i have no idea where to find the .pit file, cause as i remember with my S-Advance (and my old S too) i need a pit file to use with Odin right ? and it's always a very small size,
any help with that please ?
Don't touch a PIT file unless:-
A) You have a specific reason to.
B) You know what you're doing.
I've seen literally hundreds (and no doubt there has been many more I haven't seen) of people flashing PIT files when they absolutely didn't need to brick their phones on here over the past 2 & a bit yrs (almost always a case like yours of simply needing to flash a one part stock firmware to fix, but people have to over-complicate things).
Neither A nor B applies to you, so don't do it. If you think what I've said is overkill, I'm merely trying to save you from having to throw your phone in the bin.

Thank you,
so following what you said, i only need to select the downloaded firmware from the PDA button and press start ?
Remark :
i tried that and i got this error :
"Can't open the serial(COM) port."
Since kies is completely closed and am 100% that i have the USB direver installed (phone detected and i've done that before)
i am going to assume that my cable or my ports are the cause of the problem, if you have a better suggestion please illuminate me, otherwise i'll try with different cable/PC tonight and keep you updated, lastly i REALLY hope that an expert android developer or maybe someone that can spread this problem for more people cause it is VERY annoying to have to do this for such a minor problem just because the OS developers have forgot or didn't want to allow us to adjust all the phone sensors ...
Note that after this downgrade, i will have to upgrade again and restore all my previous data,setting, apps again... and that is a real painful waste of time >_< !!!

Thank you very much, changing the cable solved this, the phone is back to stock again :victory:
just in case someone face this,
i got a SplashScreen loop (my SplashScreen is changed from TIM {italian operator} to the default samsung wich is another victory for me :highfive: )
anyway,
that was simply solved by booting into recovery mode and wipe all data
Edit :
Samsung Kies doesn't detect new update anymore, i think that is because i only used PDA in Odine ?
i'll have to update with Odine again (it take less time than kies anyway)
Hi all,
I tried to charge my GS2S and it went dead. Well, almost.
It's stuck on the welcome screen. Won't go to Recovery Mode, but still goes to Download Mode.
I've followed the instructions on TheAndroidSoul about how to install the CWM Recovery for this phone (can't post a link it seems) but got a "failed" result. I've tried three times at least and I get "failed" again and again.
Any idea what could be wrong and how do I get around it?
Thanks in advance!
Get stock firmware for country/carrier from Samfirmware (not 4.0.4 if you intend to root your phone in the future), flash with Odin in download mode. How ? Thread stickied near top of Q&A titled 'Flash stock firmware' has instructions. Problems with Odin flash ? Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General section has all the info you need to get a successful Odin flash & a 'clean slate'.
As to how instructions on another site will/won't work, no idea & won't be looking at those.. Not interested in what's on other sites given most of the info found on them has probably been posted here in the first instance anyway. You don't need other sites when you have a resource like this one at your disposal.
Once you're back at stock, you can then re-root your phone & flash whatever custom rom/kernel you want again (maybe not do that until you're totally comfortable with whatever process you need to use first).

Hi all,
I installed CM11 onto my S5830i (GB) and managed to get it all working. I had to install S5360_XXMK1 modem and a newer version of CWM to prevent the "Status 7" error. Anyway, it all worked and I had CM11 up and running. Unfortunately, I had to remove it, I couldn't click any links in the browser and the browser was slow as all buggery even on a fast wifi connection. So I fired up Odin and tried to put the stock firmware on (i don't have an original state backup, the phone came with a custom rom on it already). I got these files
CSC_S5830i_BTUMD1.tar.md5
MODEM_S5830i_XXMD1.tar.md5
PDA_S5830i_XXMD1.tar.md5
But something's messing up, after Odin does its thing and the phone restarts, I notice something on the screen during restart saying it failed to format the /data partition. When I let the phone boot up normally it just stays on the "Samsung" startup animation forever. If I go into samsung recovery and try to do a factory reset, this is what I see
Code:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/stl11
Formatting /cache...
Data wipe complete.
Obviously, something's wrong there, can anyone tell me how to fix it pleeeeese, I'd be eternally grateful.
Thanks
NS
EDIT: I think the CM install may have messed around with my partitioning. I do not have a pit file for the phone (GB Version) and am reluctant to be using the re-partition option in Odin. I can find pit files online, but they're either not the correct version or the poster doesn't even say what version it is. I am just so lost and confused with all this.
@NicSure, Flashing wrong base band into your Ace-i is ill advised mate, go to CM11 discussion topic and read my comments . ( You will damage your EFS partition,thus device may become hard bricked in many cases)
As for troubleshooting : Already explained all of the instructions in details in many places, So I will provide links/hints for now. If your problem persisted, let us know
Here we go mate:
1. Official source for your stock firmware CSC/MODEM/PDA >> this page (sammobile.com)
2. Study this topic to get the hang of Wipe flash-able packages,,, How to produce them, Boot looder and pit files required for the process , etc etc,, all well instructed here
3. Read few last pages of this topic; my comments; for more insight into your problem. Please be advised you have already converted your partitions into MTD ,therefore formatting /data ( concerting back into RFS partitions ) might be failure through CWM/e3 recovery >> Odin process is required for"stl11" .
Hope I did help you

Thanks but you were too technical. I have been to a lot of those pages you linked and it's not all obvious what's going on. You spoke about "base band", I have no idea what that is. I have no idea what RFS, MTD
are (file systems?), not do I know where to get a bootloader from. Sam mobile won't let me download anything without paying and/or signing up which I'm reluctant to do. I'll re-read the posts you linked to (I had already seen them) and see if something starts to make more sense.
For instance:
"Please be advised you have already converted your partitions into MTD ,therefore formatting /data ( concerting back into RFS partitions ) might be failure through CWM/e3 recovery >> Odin process is required for"stl11"
May as well have been in Klingon, I didn't understand a word of it.
EDIT:
I've reviewed those threads again. Seems I need to use split fus on the downloaded file from SamMobile (which I had to register to download, not happy about that) and use the "wipe" versions. I need a pit file, there's no info anywhere on how to get that. So I've just done a general google and hopefully I've downloaded one (more info on that is needed in the tuts). And the bootloader is attached to the unbrick thread, but, is that the ONLY bootloader? Do I need a specific one for my region? Do I need a specific pit file for my region? All this info is not supplied anywhere, Newcomers are not going to know this stuff and it needs to be made clear in the tutorials. Most of the tuts have broken links (split fus for instance), so I'm not sure if the stuff I googled is actually the same. Absolute nightmare.

"Robust File System" is more or less equivalent to your FAT/FAT32 of your PC ( Samsung file system Format,, not going to add "Journalling system" to the mix, since you are not a sport ,,FYI : You are supposed to know common terms such as MTD , RFS when you are massing with CM11 mate >> Read the first page thoroughly, before start experimenting with Cyanogen stuff,,,
MTD (Memory Technology Device) supports YAFFS2 as a file system residing on it and is considered some type of of Partition Map.

Again, Read the topic I mentioned above. You are on Cooperve device, so be aware of wrong file ( "cooperve_0623.pit" resided inside Odin3.v3.07.Cooperve folder) All of the related links already provided , Just take your time and read mate.
I'd already read the posts you linked to multiple times thank you. They may be "straight forward" to you, but I can assure you they are certainly not so for a newcomer. Too many things are vague, missing or not explained properly.
In any case, I managed to get the stock firmware back on after trawling the internet for a .pit file, downloading the firmware, splitting it, taking the wipe versions with the pit and the bootloader and using Odin to fully flash the phone back to stock firmware, Finally. The tuts here are indeed a lot of help, but so so so disjointed.
Also, why would changing the base band effect the file system? How could it cause physical damage to NAND memory. I'm confused. I assume you mean physical damage, because if not, why would it be ill-advised to change it if it could just be changed back with no ill-effects?
@NicSure, First of all Thanks button implanted here for a good reason and most likely you are the first person who was complaining about my assistance (How information is organized and distributed for new commers is not my responsibility nor distribution of step-by-step instructions ) . Second of all You were complaining about the technical terms and jargon, But know you are asking for technical reason in regard of the consequences of flashing Galaxy Y GT-S5360 inside your ACE-i device !
I did mention about EFS partition corruption, which renders your device mobile network communication useless and hard bricking of your device.which is a phone that shows no signs of power-on and will not access download mode with button combo. You did assume wrong mate.
Generally speaking, Carriers use different radio frequencies in our respective countries , Different Devices do contain different modem hardware inside, So you are not encouraged to do what you have done in the first place.
If you are not flashing the correct versions for your phone , or if the flash gets interrupted there’s a good chance you will Hard Brick your device, thus we may need hardwired access to modify/erase and rewrite chip's code ( Service is required).
When a phone is in a hard-bricked state it’s most likely that the bootloaders, which is the phones initial code to launch the phones ROM, becomes corrupted.
The only way to revive the phone is to rewrite the bootloader code, because the phone does not power on ., So you see so many things could go wrong :silly:

Firstly, I'm not complaining, I'm criticizing, there's a difference. I was critical of your language and terminology as it didn't match the links you posted. Also the level of technical talk you used toward a clear newbie who would obviously never understand it without clarification. If that offends you then I'm sorry, I'm just speaking my mind. Help offered, no matter how kindly or freely is useless if it cannot be understood. I generally take a very irritated approach to people who post links (with the implication that the information is freely available if you'd bother to look) in response to perfectly polite questions, especially when I'd already read ALL the posts you linked to before and had trouble with them, that is why I posted, to get a little more basic understanding, not be presented with links to material I'd already read and needed help with. Also, after some researching, with regard to the base-band, I think you're wrong, there's no way flashing a different base-band separately could effect the bootloader, no way at all. I seriously doubt it could even cause corruption, that's liek saying installing the incorrect driver for a graphics card on a PC could corrupt the file system, just no. So far I've flashed many many different MODEM types onto my phone to try to test this, in some caes the phone boots, in some cases it doesn't etc.. Not once has the phone failed to go into Odin flash mode, and if it can get to that, it can be restored. So based on research and some experimental evidence conducted to test your assertion, I'd have to say that my initial findings are that your assertion is probably incorrect.
Also I learn very quickly. My knowledge of the subject had increased dramatically from my first post to my second. I learned c++ in a day for example, and was posting similar newbie questions on programming forums to which I was later replying with a level of knowledge that wasn't consistent with my initial post. It's just me, sorry about that. And thanks for trying to help, but I got it myself.

Dear NicSure, I am in the same situation as yours, I was planning to "simply" (or maybe wrongly?) use Odin 3.09 and flash the Splitted files from here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-ace/s5830i-develop/stock-rom-odin-flashable-firmware-t3002776).
But you mentioned that also the ".pit" file is needed. Could you guide me through the process you followed to have back a Stock from CM11 ROM?
Thank you in advance!

Per your request/confirmation @ development section/twr topic i would resume troubleshooting .
What is your device variation (5830i/C/M/V/5839i ) ? Do you have any Nandroid back up left inside your SD card from your original stock firmware partitions ? Can you see your IMEI number , when you are dialing "*#06#" ? Your original stock CSC/PDA/MODEM you are coming from ? Your Region / Country / carrier you are staying with at the moment and please give me the Totoro Modem part you did flash to get into the CM11 ? and for addressing part of your primary queries , Odin 3.07 works very well with variation I mentioned above ( you could use 3.09 with no harm though , but not recommended ) . Pit file also must be relevant, otherwise you will hard brick your device in many cases I observed .
