Phone Won't Boot Up & Keeps Vibrating

Guys I have a very serious problem. I'm on Darkkys latest rom...
I took out my battery for 1 hour... put battery back in and the phone did not boot up.
All I got was the screen saver and the phone kept on virbarting...
I tried wiping cache through clock work recovery, resetting to factory settings via clock work.. still nothing..
I just updated phone via odin to latest JPY...the phone goes to black screen and keeps vibrating... It won't boot.
Guys what's wrong with my phone? I am really worried...and I need to use it
I appreciate your help.
Ps. Phone can go into download mode..

Did you use the wipe or non-wipe version?
You'll need to flash older firmware via Odin and start all over again mate.

Hey mate thanks for replying..
someone said to flash XWJM8 ...
I will use your method instead..
would this solve my problem sir?

The above method given in the link is probably the best way to do it as it flashes stock firmware so that you can start from scratch again

Darkky one.. I used wipe of course...
this didnt work...
odin says FAIL!
"complete (write) operation failed

I take it you reset or closed and re-opened Odin?
Are you sure you have the correct PDA / CODE / MODEM / CSC files? and are you using the 512 .pit?

I have no idea...
Can you link me to download that has all the files I need..
I have odin etc
Edit:
The guys says this Check and click PDA and select I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar.md5
Check and click PHONE and select I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar.md5
Check and click CSC and select GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJPU.tar.md5
he is using "I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar.md5" twice... is this correct? what about modem file thats included?
I followed instructions and it fails

Look here first for the firmware and instructions. If you still have problems PM me later, I'll be back on about 9pm

I am trying it again...as we speak...
On another note how do I flash XWJM8 as many people have had success with this?
I only have 2 files in the folder:
CODE_I9000XWJM8.tar.md5
MODEM_I9000XXJM4.tar.md5
Where is CSC and how do I flash this in odin... what goes where?
thank you so much for your help I really appreciate it

XXJPU failed again... if you could answer the post above this I can try other rom thanks

XWJM8 worked.

Flashing Reboot problem

Dear Guru's...
I've flashed the SGS, with JS3 from samfirmware & odin...
Everything looks fine until reboot...
The phone keeps vibrating and do have the following error in recovery mode : 'Update media Can't mount dbdata..."
Conclusion it doesn't boot at all...
Any clues on how to solve that ?
ManyMany Thanks!

Recovery is working, But i do have the error here : " Your storage is not prepared yet etc etc etc.."
And download mode also working...
Is there any rom that I can put ?

if you can get download mode working you can flash another ROM thru Odin, start of on a stock ROM then work your way back to a custom ROM if thats what u want.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913

I've got the same problem. Phone boots in both download and Recovery mode, but it cannot access internal SD since it was formatted in Ext4 by the lagfix (yes, I forgot to bring it back before using Odin).
Is there any way to solve this without sending the phone to Samsung?

The thing is " I use a stock rom from samfirmware...."...

flashing back to stock rom should remove the ext4 lagfix. did for me anyway.
link for stock firmware is in post above ^^^^

flash it again, and do re partition

I'll try to do it with csc and modem file...
what is reset EFS Phone ?

I probably solved. I'm going to make a FULL flash to JPU with three files and PIT, then I'll upgrade to JS3, then will swith to a custom ROM.
This should work

sorry my mistake i assumed you already had 3 files and pit ... yeah that should work
dont tick EFS just the re partition and auto reboot f. reset time

Reboot problems also
Hi! I was just wondering is this method going to work even I have custom rom (Darkys extreme edition 9.0.2) installed ?
Only asking because something went terribly wrong, and phone just keeps rebooting all the time. So with odin + I9000XXJPY (stock firmware) everything goes back to normal? and after that I can start all over to see what went wrong

Try odin v3 and download newest firmware from samfirmware. You extract the zip and put the file in pda. Then press Start.
How long did you wait after the black screen? Maybe it is a black screen because it has not the right bootanimation enabler. Try waiting 5 minutes after black screen.

Any help would be amazing.

You say you are stuck on download mode .
As in download mode does screen not move unable to boot to recovery unable to power off .
Read the CFauto root instructions in full

I did and didnt find anything helpfull for my situation.
Also tried to root again but again its stuck on downloading... do not turn off target screen.

Boot to download mode and it says as it should Downloading do not turn off .
You are now supposed to flash the firmware via odin .
You should flash your stock firmware to get the phone working .
Then read the basic faqs and guides before you flash anything as its pointless flashing without reading the basics .
Or take it to a service centre .

Thanks for the reply ill consider doing that
but before i try that i managed to get into recovery mode does that mean i can try something or should i try the odin flash thing?

Clear data and cache then reboot you may not have to reflash the rom. if that doesnt work tha use odin to flash stock rom. good luck

Is there a way to know my version/pda since i have no idea what stock rom to download

Device model no. in recovery mode
Hi,
Sorry to ask a random question. I Have my device model no. as S3 I9305 when I go to download mode and in my phone settings I can see my device model as S3 I9305T. I have recently installed Australian official firmware(XSA version without any career bloatware) in my phone, which is the S3 I9305T. I found it weird to have two different model nos. in 2 different places. When I first bought this phone it was the Telstra version, which is S3 I9305T. After that I changed many firmwares and installed S3 I9305 version from optus and other country's S3 I9305 version as well. Could you please tell me why is that?? Is this because I once installed I9305 firmware once? If that's the reason, today I flashed I9305T official firmware again with Odin. Is there any way to reset the download mode as well?? Please reply. Thanks.

Not unless you know what it is or saved the original .
You can just pick a stock rom for your area/ network .
If you bothered to read the basics their would be no need for all this ratting about .

@JJEgan I need some help, Ive got device, with same problem (i9305)

So you run odin in windows.
Boot your phone to download mode
Connect device and wait for confirmation of connection in odin.
And then you click pda and choose a stock firmware.
And click start.

Big issue after firmware update try

Hello,
I've a "non commercial" version of a GTab 8.9.
This tab is running by default Android 3.1. I would like to update to Android 4.0.4. Kies doesn't want indicating my tablet doesn't support the update (i don't know it was 4.0.4 version or another)
I tried to use the standard : Odin + the new firmware. The tablet is unlocked and rooted.
Each time that I tried I get the error : "can't nand write" :-/ I tried all current stuff to fix this issue : change cable, PC, odin version (1.83, 1.85, 3.07, 3.09). I tried to change recovery with succss
but impossible to change rom. I found a link on tsar dot com (sorry I'm too young here to post link) to reformat tab and I put the pit file : this has worked....but now : i can't access to the recovery. I can only open the download mode...but I can't do anything and I don't have others files described ont the following link
XDA's guy are ones to save me !!

As this method didn't work I try with the tsar dot com solution. Hoping that's can help me.

I've a similar issue in /data partition (it can't be writtable after a try to flash with Odin from a virtual machine) and I fixed it with the PIT file to repartition, reflash stock firmware and then a wipe/factory reset from stock recovery (I think it did a format)...

I try to put pit file. It's works as I told in my first post. But I can't flash the firmware with a standard stock rom (apparently). Can you tell me tools and roms that you used to fix the issue exaclty ?

What I remember is Heimdall doesn't work with my P7310 and it don't let me do anything.
Anyway, plug into a Windows machine running Odin 1.85 (I think this version it's fine) your tab, press 10 seconds UP and power button and see if your tab is detected. In that case try to flash stock package again.
Some time ago it happened to me with a Galaxy Ace phone, when phone is booting screen was off but the phone enters into download mode anyway and you could flash whatever you want.
A last shot for you could be disassemble your tab and pull off battery. Wait some minutes and then pull on again. Try to start in download mode with tab plugged into your computer. If you don't have enough knowledge to disassemble your tab (and I can assure you of that it's not easy) maybe you need to bring it to Samsung support.
