[Help] Odin freeze Darky's resurrection v9.2 - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I try to install the Darky's resurrection v9.2.
I followed the instructions, but odin seems to be freezed afeter <SET PIT FILE>

(sorry can't add the picture since i'm new).
I waited 20 minutes but nothing happens....
Should i wait again? Can i unplug and try again?
Thanks

this might be a silly question but are you already rooted and have recovery 2e?

Thanks for your answer.
I'm rooted but i have recovery 3e.
After serveral tries, i was not able to reformat using the pit provided with darky's.
Fortunately it worked with another pit file, and after that i was able to flash an official rom, but now after the boot, i have a black screen with the phone vibrating.
When i go into recovery mode, i see
Update medie, plesae wait
E:Can’t mount /dev/block/st110
(invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can’t mount DBDATA:
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI me nu for format and reboot actions.
copy default media content failed

What does it mean?

Try reading Darkys help files or kill it .
Use Odin block 2 method .

hi mate, i had issues trying to use the odin method and failed misserably, the way i done it in the end is as follows
go to market
download sgs kernel
once done flash speedmod kernel using the app
re start phone
once done download darkys rom
reboot to download mode (should now have 2e)
flash zip
choose zip
find darkys
click yes instal darkys
job done
one thing i must point out in 2e is the back button on your phone is now the select button and the menu button on the bottom left is now your back button
hope this helps as it did for me

hi...just asking..did u download cwm n run in as update.zip at recovery mode 1st? dat way u can get 2e recovery mode. dun forget to place it @ ur main directory.after that finish that process then u can try with odin's step.

Hello,
Thx all for your help.
Finally i was able to unbrick by flashing an official JS3 kernel with the 3 files (PDA-CSC-MODEM) and reformat using a 803 pit file.
I don't know why, everything i tried with only 1 pda file didn't work

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S: Black Screen after Flash

I have a SGS with firmware I9000XWJG5 and Root. I tried to do a Speed fix, but afterwards it was slower so i tried to flash the phone with the I9000XWJG5 firmware again.
After the flash, the phone rebooted and i came to the recovery menu. There the phone wrote:
update media, please wait
and in the next lines:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/st110
(invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
copy default media content failed.
Now when i try do start the phone, i get a black screen after the bright S
What i have tried: Flash agein with and without re-partition and Factory Reset
Has anybody an idea what i can do?
and sorry for my bad english
bump. can anyone help with this topic..
i am having some problem..
help us guys
thanks
Fixed... use odin 512
Thread moved in Galaxy S I9000 General.
I can definately help with this one, as I worked through it last night...
I found that if you're trying to flash the JG5 rom (as mentioned in Modaco's thread) with the 513 Pit file, then you'll get the black screen of despair!! For some reason the two combination of the two don't work.
However, if you do a google search for Odin PIT 512, then download this file
You will be able to download the 512 PIT file instead. Now use this in Odin3 to flash the JG5 rom and you should have no further issues....it worked for me.
I also discovered that Samsung have just released a later firmware, so I just flashed this one on top of the JG5 one...I have a nicely running phone now.
Hope this helps...it did me!
Mike
Mine was completely knackered. Couldn't get to recovery either. Flashed Modaco's MCR R3, after the JG5 flash, using all the files in the JG5 download. Working a treat...
Cheers,
BS...

hello, i got the same problem. trying to reflash with I9000XXJPY 2.2.1 and the 512 pit, but still the same problem.

Same here.
I tried JS3 and going back to JP6....and always the same result.
I'm obviously missing something. Maybe my 512.PIT is corrupted. I get the black screen and the same /dev/block.st110 errors in recovery.
i beleive you need to have a CSC file also for the odin flash.
i sorted mine like this:
Downloaded some JP2 odin files [used this as this was the only one on Samsung-firmwares that had all 3 PDA, Modem and CSC Files. flashed this using a .512 pit in odin. - this allowed the phone to boot normally.
connected to Kies and using reg hack [set to XEU] managed to update to JPY.
the following the Darky guide, flashed the CF Root kernel, installed the ROM Manager from the market, using the recovery mode installed the update.zip file for clockworkMod.
Formatted everything in ClockworkMod
Factory Reset in ClockworkMod
Installed Darky ROM V8.0 Wipe
thanks for your find !

fix for black screen after flash with no recover or download mode working.
Hey All.
So like the subject says, you flash and then your phone restarts or whatever, and then you get the normal galaxy s startup, with the sound and the visuals, but then that's it. Henceforth you are greeted with the two lights (if its a Bell Vibrant) from your options and back keys.
To fix it use the attached file. Its called ADB or something - I just know it works. It was a fix for the galaxy s phones that didnt have the recovery/download mode stock.
so here is how it goes:
1. download adb to your desktop and unpack it (if its in winrar or zip or whatever) to a file folder named adb.
2. open a command prompt.
3. type "cd" and then the address of the "adb" folder. so for example it should be in C:\Users\your user name\Desktop\adb. where "your user name" is your user name a duh.
4. plug in your galaxy s via usb.
5. type "adb reboot download" in the command prompt. copy it using your mouse as well.
6. turn on your phone.
7. press enter in the command prompt, then keep copying and pasting and pressing enter until you see the download screen on your phone. each time you press enter it says device not connected or something but just keep trying.

can't post it but the thread is called "How to get the 3 button recovery mode working"

[Q] Clockworkmod Recovery error: signature verification failed!

Hi all,
I installed JPY (2.2.1) Rom on my SGS yesterday, rooted my phone with SuperOneClick.
Tested the phone, everything is ok and the root is also ok.
Then installed Clockworkmod, flash cwm recovery 2.5.1.2, click on Backup, the phone automatic rebooted but presented my with a normal recovery screen.
In it I can do something like; a factory reset, clean card data, restart or click on update.zip (I thing that goes to the update.zip that cwm put on my sdcard).
But when I click it gives this error:
Install from package...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Tried everything... What can I do in order to cwm works and backups my sgs??
All the help is appreciated...
Thanks,
you loose 2e recover when going to froyo.. needed for clockwork ..
flash a kernel that restores it ie
chainfire/cf or speedmod or backlight notifiction ie bln kernel.

So what are you saying is that CWR doesn't work with 3e recovery? Only with 2e?
Because 3e does not allow unsigned zips hence the error message..

Thanks for the explanation,
Didn't know why it works with one and not the other...
Anyway, its working now, thanks for all the help!
For anyone that has the same problem, here is what I did:
Flashed the phone with I9000XXJPY and with Odin. You can find JPY here: http://www.multiupload.com/UHJNT0K1F2
Put PIT 512 in PIT and in PDA put the file JPY_JPY_JPY.tar (no repartition selected).
Shutdown the phone after it starts.
Start Odin again and in PDA put this file: CF-Root-XX_XEU_JPY-v1.3-BusyBox-1.17.1
You can download it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
After that you can install CWM. When you click in backup and the phone restarts see if 2e restore appears in top of the screen if so all is ok.
Also, if a normal screen appears just click in update.zip and after that you will see the cwm screen.
In the cwm recovery screen the sgs buttons are like this: back button is the “enter” and the “menu” is the back button.
P.S. If you need to install TPH for Portuguese language just tell me, cause the CSC installed is KOR and you don't have TPH in CSC file to install.
Once again, Thanks to all who help me!

Great explanation but for the record (for anyone looking for a solution), if you're already on a 2.2 firmware, you can simple start at the step of flashing a custom kernel that supports CWM (i.e. there's no need to first flash to JPY).

How about
1. Repartition with a 512 pit from odin.
2. Flash Stock JM8 or JM9 (Usually i am flashing JM8 when things get messed)
3. Use update zip and install clockworkmod from it . (you will not have any signature errors because now you have recovery 2e)
4. Sometimes you will have to apply sd card update twice to get to CWM.
5. Vola, now you have working clockworkmod recovery and you can flash whatever the things you want with it

horrible suggestion you both need to search b4 posting.. been posted multiple at least 20 times now.. you DONT need to go install a new rom and blow everything away on your phone just to get 2e recovery so clockwork works.. search search.. there are kernels out there you can flash to get back 2e recovery

Oh yeah. forgot to mention it. there is a post that have a kernel which gives you recovery 2e on JPY firmware. (Don't know other firmwares has it or not)
Anyway, in my case i like to blow everything and start all over when i got messed up. because i don't use my sgs for very precious works. i'm just playing with it
Kudos to the lgkahn for bringing this kernel thing up

Okay..seems like this thread is getting nowhere..
Go to the android development section and look for hardcore's speedmod kernel. Download the latest version and flash it via Odin.
Btw, let me give you a tip once you are in hardcore's thread. PLEASE READ THE FIRST 3-4 POSTS AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS.
I don't think you are exerting enough effort to research here in the forum so I just gave you one of the simplest and shortest step to have CWM directly.

is it OK to use Stericssion autosin.bat to sign the update.zip downloaded by CWM and then flash it using recovery 3e? We will not have to flash the CF Kernel.

[Q] Problems!

I root my SGS with Z4 root. i change recovery 3e to 2e and there i make some mistake. can´t start droid anymore. It goes Dl and Rec -modes but i can´t flash (install)any roms (firms) with Odin.
It always sais at:
E:Can´t mount /dev/block/st110
(invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdate_media:Can´t mount DBDATA:
Our storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
copy default media content failed.
How can i get rom back in phone? :F
in recovery mode - mount sdcard
push cwm recovery as update.zip and also something like one of darkys roms as a zip.
then unmount sdcard. then run the update.zip from recovery to reboot to cwm (may have to be done twice)
then from cwm recovery install zip from sdcard (rom file)
I have recovery 3e in it now. Can´t do much with it. :F
cwm?
using update.zip. it says cant find path...
cant mount.. bla bla bla.
having gray hairs.. :F
if u have some good ideas i´m glad to hear.
Flash a speedmod kernel to get 2e back, flash with odin from download mode. then flash a stock rom with a dbdata file inside the .tar file, flash it with odin also. Not all stock roms have the dbdata so you need to check a few of them. Just right click them once downloaded and open.... Dont extract...once you confirm the file has the dbdata flash it...once your phone boots flash any rom on top that you like.

You need to flash a firmware package with separate pda, modem and csc like JPU and then flash to updated firmware.

you can flash a stock rom with them all integrated and do not need the seprate pda, csc or modem. I had this exact issue and had to flash original 2.1 to get it going. i'm on a bell phone and my specific version was UGJH2 which had the dbdata included. download the original stock 2.1 and check, get from samfirmware or from here: (make sure you get your specific ROM though, i'm not sure which one that is for you)

But so now i have to update it to 2.2.
Can i do that with Kies?
That is my suggestion, although you know what to do now if it goes bad. it's pretty hard to mess up the phone by flashing unless you unplug it in the middle of the flash.

Can you get into download mode ? there is a clever tool that can force the phone into download mode, but its a little complex, if you dont know what your doing i suggest dont do it at all and send it back to samsung, if you feel competent enough to try it, the link is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551
i still can get to the download mode.. but in recovery i cannot
i can reflash to old rom.! but got stuck in recovery mode

Use XXJPY 2.2.1
Make sure Re-partition in ODIN is not checked and then flash the ROM. Use the tar file as the PDA.

today i wanted to flash my galaxy s to ics.

so then i went to recovery mode and installed ics and im sure i followed every step in the tutorial. But when booting it didnt stop booting and it was like that for an hour. so then i tried to flash it back to the firmware i had before.
i tried to flash back to gingerbread with odin but now it cant boot beyond the galaxy s gt-19000 screen.
i tried to go to recovery mode but in recovery mode everywhere its saying
"E: unknown volume for path {/data}
E: unknown volume for path {/data}

and so on...
please help me

dude u can get stock firmware from samfirmware.com,try flashing darkyrom 10.2 re it saved me acouple of times good luck
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php
thank you for the answer ill try it
try going back to smthn like jvt or jw1 via odin and then if u want to flash ics follow the video on youtube by totallydubbedhd
You need to flash a rom stock using ODIN. If I understand correctly you must enable the option to re-partition so be sure to also include the .pit file when you will flash, then proceed to install ICS. It is recommended to remove the SD-EXT before starting to install because it can pass to enter a bootloop.
