Yesterday i upgraded my Galaxy S to Froyo 2.2 using kies. The upgrade went fine but the issue is whenever i boot up the phone after a boot it gives force close errors. I have wiped data partition and cache without success. How can i resolve this? Will I have to downgrade? If yes, then how?
Regards
Have you tried wiping data/factory reset via 3-button download mode (by holding volume up+home and then pressing power button until it starts up)?
Same here, did data/factory reset via 3-button mode and now its perfect. Did loose all apps mind you, but who cares
My own rule of thumb is that i dont wipe cache or internal sd (using the recovery vol up+home+power) after an update through kies.
I do it before the upgrade.
Works like a charm.

Did you have any Samsung apps installed prior to the factory reset? Do you know if its possible to install them again from the Samsung apps on the phone?
Hi,
I have tried the 3-button reset but still getting the same errors. Thats not working for me. Any other solution for this?
Samsung kies is some piece of ****.

facepalm. Serious facepalm. No there are none. Not in pinned topic, not in samfirmwares, not in each and every topic where new firmware is discussed.

I was stupid enough to update with OCLF installed and running. After updating my phone started up and i'm stuck at the "Touch the android to begin" with a bunch of "sorry" error messages popping up about the android.process.acore has stopped working kinda thing. I have tried recovering and still nothing.
Please, please, please help! Got the SGS as a recent present
I'm with vodaphone if that helps?
Thanks!!
Go into recovery mode (vol up + menu button + power) and do a factory reset.

hmmm
thats weird me and my friend both did this. and he got the error messages too. Couldn't do anything at the start wizard.
His didn't have the 3 button reset so he went onto http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
and rebooted his galaxy with the sdk tools into recovery mode. and did the factory reset from there.
ARE YOU SURE u did the factory reset right? cus it SHOULD work
You are going to need to reflash your stock firmware using odin. Recovery mode is not going to help you at this point.

Hello,
I wanted to update my Note to official german ICS (N7000XXLPY) using Odin. After going through th whole process:
extracting, wiping, putting in download mode, chosing N7000XXLPY in PDA and starting, it took some 5 to 8 minutes until odin finished with
"REMOVED!" and the phone restarted with new ICS boot animation.
Now it's stucked on SAMSUNG logo. I've tried to reboot a few times but nothing changes. ANy help would be apreciated.
Thanks,
BruXav
Sorry for posting my q on wrong place!!
ps: the rookie I am forgot to enable debug mode before going through this :-(

When I do the combo home+power+volume down I can only volume up to enter downloading mode or cancel. I go to download but what to do next?
It says downloading...do not turn off target but nothing about factory reset.
Thank you so much!!!
Sorry I'm new here
I had same problem.. Boot into CWM, not download mode, and factory reset worked for me.

Thanks but how do you get in CWM mode if you can't get into the phone?
Any other button combo I don't know?
The only thing I ca do is reboot in download mode
CWM = Vol UP + Home + Power

Did you update this way to official ICS?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25947847&postcount=4
If you already did above, then try this:
0. Disconnect USB
1. Power off
2. Hold vol+ & home & power, let go of power once you see Samsung logo
3. You'll be in a special recovery mode. From here you can choose factory reset.

Yeah, I thought maybe you skipped something. I had CheckROM v6 on mine, it's was gingerbread rom. I did a PC Odin upgrade using the stock ICS, and everything was still there working. I did do another factory reset tonight from the settings and not in the recovery menu. Could it be a corrupted download of stock ICS? Some people were saying if you had a custom ICS before, this method won't work. Are you able to put back stock gingerbread?
I have this same problem. Cant get past samsung logo. I tried flashing several times, did factory reset, just wont work. I flashed using heimdall, not odin, would that make a difference?
Flashed back to 2.3.6, that works fine. Tried reflashing official ics, same problem, stuck at samsung logo. Factory reset in cwm does not work. Any ideas?
Hey buddy, I had the same problem tonight when I tried to restart my phone after a build.prop update - changing the wifi interval from 15 to 120... doh!
Got stuck at the boot screen and so out of desperation I decided to wipe, it didnt work. I was still stuck.
So I flashed XXLC1 (Open Euro) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 with PC Odin and it came back ok . I lost root though but thats no biggie, at least I have a working phone now.
Hope that helps you. Good Luck!
hey folks,
today, i changed the sim card of my galaxy to see if my new contract already has service. it did. but that is not the story. i changed the sim card back an booted the phone. unfortunately, i wrongfully plugged the sim in so that i had to turn it around. unpatiently, i removed the battery while android was already booted but the widgets and stuff weren't loaded yet. then turned the sim card, plugged the battery back in and now the phone doesn't start anymore. first i'm seeing the galaxy s gt-i9000logo. after that follows galaxy s and underneath cyanogenmod in letters. but the fancy animation of cyanogen doesn't start.
i am able to get into download mode but not into recovery (cwm). i'm on cyanogen mod 9 build 17 of teamhacksung (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363593).
any clues what happend to my phone and how to make it work like a charm again?
thanks!
First try cleaning cache and dalvik from recovery and boot else clear cache/dalvik and then re-install rom again.
how can i clean the cash and dalvik if i can't get to cwm?
If you have titanium back installed then there is an option to clear it from its menu.
well, i have titanium backup installed on my phone but how can i access it?? maybe you could give me a short guide?
I've had this a couple times, try holding down 3 button combo while you are charging the phone. If you manage to get into recovery i highly doubt clearing cache etc will help. If you're able to get into cwm you'll prob have to reflash rom otherwise use Odin :/..

hold volume down, home and power buttons together for like 12 sec then the system should enter into recover mode.scroll by volume keys and reach factory reset and press home key.i thick this will resolve the issue.

go to recovery and wipe data flash rom then again wipe data
Your phone is bricked. You'll have to reflash a ROM and wipe data.

No, he isn't bricked yet. He just stuck at ANDROID text. So maybe half-bricked. If he can enter Recovery Mode then you are in good luck. If he can't then bad luck, but if he can enter Download Mode, then lucky come to you ! (then if he can't, congrats... you have a trashed phone.)

Agreed. If you can enter recovery and/or download, just go and reflash another rom or the stock rom through CWM or ODIN.
Maybe one click unroot?

oh my, that's a big problem... go to recovery, wipe data, cache and dalvik cache, then format system, flash rom again, and reboot...
Lol...don't be afraid nothing has happened ...since it uses aroma installer you should not wipe data before flashing miui...
Here is what you can do...
Flash a new rom may cm7 or anyother (not miui) ...then again boot into recovery and flash miui without wiping data ...afaik you will be ok...

Thank you guys for help and calming me down! Now i will try to reflash ROM.
So the here's the first part of the story...
Here goes: I flashed a ROM but forgot to do a complete factory reset. Now the phone hangs at the Samsung logo. I couldn't enter Recovery nor Download mode even when the phone was good, because it didn't respond to the button combinations. I managed to make an USB Jig and can enter Download mode now, but I'm afraid that flashing another firmware without wiping just won't solve the problem.
Is ther any way to do a factory reset/full wipe from download mode or any other way without using the Android or recovery?
Thanks guys!

Last problem is factory reset to you. Flash JB and see if you get recovery. I do not think that there is possibility for factory reset without entering system or recovery.

Souds bad. The thing is, that I couldn't enter recovery/download even when it was running stock GB. After I flashed JB my phone hanged on Samsung logo.

What you did before, when it was normal with recovery/download mode?
Kernel and recovery are on the same partition, so it might be that it was corrupted somehow. So factory reset won't help you if you do not have working kernel.
