OTA Update turned Galaxy Pocket Boot Loop

Help Please?
I had my Galaxy Pocket rooted and got the Jellyblast v3 rom, it was doin fine until I checked on the app OTA and check for update, a new update appeared which is the Nemesis 2.5 Hybrid-Holo Editon. It asked me to download it and so I did. When it was done, it asked me if I wanted to install it and so I did, and rebooted. Later I noticed that it was already boot looping. I tried pulling the battery off and to clockwork mode, with the proper procedure..the holds and presses, but still it just kept boot looping. Tried to connect it to the PC using the USB chord and yet it just shows the charging icon and sooner it turns to white. I tried Kies but still it turned white screen all over again; no device found.
Can someone PLEASE help me with this one? PLEASE, PLEASE guys? I know you guys are knowledgable on these kind of issues. :crying:

I also received the same message and downloaded the update file. when ask to Reboot & Install i selected install the device booted in CWM and i selected update from .zip and selected the downloaded file in OTA Download Folder.
The update was successful, yet the ROM looks in BETA version.
Following are the issues i am currently facing in the updated ROM
1. Gallery ICS was Force Closed, later it was solved via uninstalling update.
2. Quick Panel, Nemesis Hub, Nemesis Owner Info & Nemesis Sound Boosters are giving FC messages.
3. OTA is giving INVALID ROM Message while updating.
I´m having the same issues.
After downloading and installing the OTA update, my device is keep stucking in the boot loop.
When I do to the recovery, I always get automatic update with the update.zip, which means I can't get into the full recovery to select another functional image.
Well I hope it's not bricked. Is there a sollution?
Thanks
I have repaired that throught ODIN MODE, like described here:

For all the SGY Users who are facing issues after updating Jellyblast 3.5 to Nemesis (I faced it too) here is the guide to recover your phone:-
First to repair your phone you have to flash stock rom via odin .
Here's the guide for Flashing Stock Rom via Odin
Requirement: 1. A Samsung Galaxy y phone model gt-s5360.
2. A computer running on windows xp, vista, win7 or win8 with proper USB driver installed to connect your phone to computer {If you have not installed USB Driver for Samsung Galaxy Y then to Install USB Driver}
3. Stock Rom file : you can download stock rom according to your choice and region from the xda thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1465800e
4. download ODIN: 1 .85.(google it as i cannot post outside links)
Installation Instruction : [ Charge your phone battery min 80%]
1. Download the required file Odin AND Stock Rom. zip and place in a folder on your desktop .
2. Now extract both with any file extractor.-- Odin v1 .85 .zip and the stock rom zip( file which contains the stock rom i. e 2 .3 .6 )
After that extract Stock Rom file after unzipping you will get three files :
PDA _S5360 _DDLK2.tar,
MODEM_ S5360 _DDLK2.tar &
CSC_S 5360 _DDLK2 .tar
3. Now turn off your Galaxy Y {Remove the battery for 5 -10 seconds and insert it back }
4. Go to Download Mode by Pressing Volume down + Home + Power for 5- 10 sec to boot in Download Mode
5. Now you entered in Download mode select continue by pressing Volume up button .
6. Now attach/ connect your phone to computer via USB cable .
7. Now on your computer open Odin v 1 .85. exe
8.Now make sure you are getting yellow box in ID:COM ( this means that your device is now connected and detected by odin )
9.Now Select those 3 files u download before
PIT - "totoro_0623.pit"
BOOTLOADER - "BOOT" file.
PDA - "PDA" file.
PHONE - "MODEM" file.
CSC - "GT-s5360- MULTI-CSC" file.
10.Now clik on start .
And let be ODIN do its work and wait till you see PASS in green colour it mean the flashing process is complete successfully . Samsung
11.Remove your phone from pc 12.Galaxy Y will auto reboot .
Now if you want to install nemesis Rom, you have to install the nemesis Rom 2.0 (Nemesis Titanium) first and than you should update the Rom by downloading the update file via OTA and flashing the zip file through CWM.
I hope my suggestion will solve your problem.
Did you wipe data and wipe catch before installing ROM??
Did you try flashing original ROM with Odin or others??

IT STILL DOES NOT WORK! I flashed the device, and this is what i get every time! WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

[Q] BOOTLOOP No Normal or Recovery Boot/ Downloader works/ Odin does not detect on PC

Phone specs:
Samsung Galaxy S3 Verizon SCH-i535
It was already running KitKat 4.4.2 before I rooted
This is my first time rooting and flashing ROMs to my Samsung Galaxy s3 and I have bricked it. I'm pretty sure it can be salvaged but have yet to find anything that works.
I have written the long version for those who need it, but the short version is that I screwed up and can no longer boot into recovery mode or normal mode, I'm not even sure if Download mode is working, and my device isn't recognized by Kies or Odin on my PC so I cannot yet do a recovery from there.
As of now my phone only boots into Odin Mode and gives the following info:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SCH-I535
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
SYSTEM STATUS: OFFICIAL
QUALCOM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 2
and displays the yellow triangle error and says: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please use Software repair Assistant & try again.
I tried to use Samsung Kies which has an emergency firmware tool but my device will not connect and become recognized by the program.
This is pretty much where I'm stuck.
Keep reading if you need additional info.
Steps leading up to problem:
I was able to Root the device succesfully
I then downloaded the latest CM11 package (cm-11-20140217-NIGHTLY-d2vzw.zip) and Gapps
I also downloaded the TWRP recovery img (openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-d2vzw.img)
Once I had these downloaded I got the app [ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool
I opened the app and tried to do a backup but I'm pretty sure it failed, or at least it said it failed. I couldn't find out how to check, but was not worried since I have already backed up my important files to the verizon cloud.
On the app I went to recover using other file and found the TWRP recovery img I downloaded.
From here I booted into recovery manually, but it did not bring up the TEAMWIN screen for TWRP like I've seen in other video tutorials so I rebooted into normal mode went to the Rashr app again and followed the prompt to do a Recovery boot using the TWRP img.
THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEMS BEGAN:
It began to lead into recovery mode but it gave a message that said something along the lines that I have tried installing a custom OS and to take my phone to the nearest verizon store.
I turned it off and tried to boot back normally but got the same error.
I tried to boot into Download mode and was successful! So I thought yaay!
Read a tutorial to reload a stock version of android here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586319
I followed all the steps but when i got to 7. which said You should see your phone under ID:COM (you should also see it has been added in message) I was not seeing my phone there. I figured it may be OK since I was able to install the drivers so that meant the USB was working so I went ahead and ran Odin to recover Jelly Bean 4.3 onto the device.
My thoughts and guesses as to what the problem is:
I think that it may be because I was already running 4.4.2 and/ or didn't have the proper bootloader when I tried to do the TWRP recovery.
Am I on the right track? Thanks for any help!
Please ask. In correct forum this is int'l s3 (i9300) forum

Is your phone even genuine? Recovery should even look like that!? Did you use this link to download ADB and drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2038555 Did you try updating drivers via device manager?

Any solution?

Hello. I have a Galaxy Mega GT-I9205. It's hard bricked and so far nothing helped to get it back to work.
I've tried to flash a firmware with Odin but the Program stucks on Initialisation step and the firmwares can't be flashed.
Current state:
-If normally powered, device shows "Firmware Upgrade encountered an issue. Please selekt recovery mode in Kies & try again." a.k.a Death Screen. Also shows the same screen when trying to go into recovery.
- Can't go into recovery mode but still able to go into Download mode.
-Can't connect with Kies.
Also tried odin on different Pc and still the same .
Is there any solution to make Odin do it's job ?
Or an alternative way like if it's possible to flash a custom recovery through Odin and make it able to boot into or
flashing a custom rom through odin?
Sincerely Thanks!
It would seem that you are trying to restore with Kies and not try to install via Odin. Find the ROM for your carrier and your phone and load it. If you OTA'd the device and it has a ROM that cannot be rolled back, you just might have to take your phone to the store for a restore. Otherwise check to see what is the best ROM to use for a brick (RTMF/Search the entire database and Google a bit) to get your phone up.
Most OEM ROMS are available for various devices. I'd try an older ROM and see if you can OTA with that or flash the most advanced one that is able to be rooted. Your call....
