Hi there,
searched the forum already, found some useful answers, but didn't work.
I had a brandnew Samsung Galaxy S 2.3.3 with a 'JVI' ending. First I installed the voodoo standard package with 'JVN' (compatible to JVI) ending. That was based on stock kernel.
Afterwards I flashed the Speedmod K15i-T10 ('JVO') and it worked perfectly. Each time I installed a new kernel, I restored my previous saved data, apps, etc. I recognized some lags though, thus I wanted to delete my entire data, apps, everything, I thought that was the problem.
I entered the Volume-up + Menu + Power menu and deleted everything I could, including backups, etc.
When I start the phone it shows the Samsung boot screen for hours. Nothing happens.
I reinstalled the Voodoo stock kernel, nothing. I changed from ext4 back to RFS, and back again, nothing. I reinstalled the Speedmod by hardcore. Still nothing. Boot screen for ever.
What to do?? In the Speedmod thread I couldn't find a solution, neither at the well-written FAQ.
Thanks in advance.
Matthias
SOLVED
Okay, got it myself. I flashed the new JVR Rom from Samsung and flashed the Speedmod again. Got it running now.

Hi guys,
I think I finally managed to brick my phone. Everything was working perfectly fine, until today when decided to try GB's Steam kernel.
So a little background first, to make things quicker:
- I was able to open download and recovery mode before, even after doing a odin3 one click restore twice.
- I've tried a Cognition and moved to DarkyYtt3r. Went from 7.0.1 to 7.5 to 7.8 to 8.0.1, no issues.
- Changed the kernel and modem several times. The last one I tried was glitterball's uc/ov stable (no charging death).
- Current set up before this mess:
-- ROM: DarkyYtter v8.0.1 > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=890429
-- Kernel: gb-reorient-fixed-ocuv-f-cwm.zip > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=887315
-- Modem: TLJL3 I think.
Everything working beautifully.
Today I saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903238 ... gb's steam kernel. since no one was having major issues, I made a backup of my current rom using CWNand decided to install the kernel using SGS Kernel flasher, according to instructions.
Cool. I've flashed kernels before a few times. No big deal. And I figured, I'm able to get into Recovery or worst case scenario into download mode. I flashed the kernel, reboot, got into Steam's recovery. Looked around. Activated a couple of tweaks although I don't remember which ones.
Rebooted and this is where the issues began. I got the "intro" window you get with i9000 roms (keyboard intro, syncing, etc). A lot of apps were force closing, including facebook, twitter, rom manager, ADW Launcher, etc.
Ok, so I rebooted to Steam recovery and deleted the cache. Went back and the same problem. At least I was able to boot the system.
I said, oh well, let's go back to our backup. Booted Steam's recovery, and tried to recover from the last backup.
It worked for one boot. Not sure what I did, I don't remember, but after trying to boot again, the phone displays the AT&T screen, the GT-I900 screen and then the Galaxy S screen. I then feel the force close vibration, and the screen goes black. I can touch the softkeys and they blink, but I feel the FC vibration every 10 or 15 seconds.
Somewhere along the line something bad happened.... but here is what's bothering me. I cannot get back into download or recovery mode anymore. Been there all day trying to make it work with no luck at all.
So, more importantly, somewhere along the line, between rom flashes, or something, I lost the ability to get into recovery or download mode. I've heard that I900 roms have different button combos, but nothing works
I'll buy a few resistor packs tomorrow, and some cables just in case. I'm afraid that I won't be able to boot into download mode this way either.
also, adb is not detecting the phone. tried both windows and linux. if I could only get it even for one second so I can send a adb reboot download... but no
Do you guys have any ideas?
Thanks!

Did you ever get this problem fixed? The reason I ask is because I'm in this same situation.
We seem to be having the same problem also... Nothing has worked for me so far

Pull your battery, pull your sd card, hold the volume button and plug in the usb cord, this will get you into download

Hello, been lurking for quite a while, but now I need some help.
Some months ago, I rooted my captivate, installed cognition, the firebird kernel, and some modem or other. The phone has been working just fine since then, until last night.
The phone gets stuck on the 'cognition' splash/boot screen. It just sits there, vibrating (in a bit of a pattern). I've tried booting it several times, no dice.
I rebooted into CWM, cleared the cache, no dice.
I rebooted into CWM again, reflashed update.zip (which now that I think about it, was probably just the kernel), no dice.
Threw it into download mode, and did the one-click with Odin3. Again, no dice.
I'm out of ideas, guys, hoping you have some.
Thanks a lot,

Please post in the ROM-specific sticky at the top of this subforum.

Alright, not too clued up, so probably should not have tried half of what I did!!!
Essentially in trying to change from Spacemooses Honeycomb Rom back to the Stock 2.3.3 (with all sorts of attempts in between an no progress), it won't go past the Samsung logo screen. Also read that a cause for this may be that I have not wiped the caches and data etc in recovery, but nothing in recovery seems to work, mounts failed, wipes failed... everything the recovery attempts is a fail! Now in trying to fix this I loaded another rom, the stock I800 Verizon I think... that starts up (nice sound), then flashes really dodgey looking lines all over, then just black and in that state only download mode was functioning, couldnt get into recovery!
So, as it stands nw, 2.3.3, stuck on samsung logo, recovery opens, but nothing works... not sure if its an ext4 or root related problem... those are just guesses though...
Help would be wonderful, I rely on this thing for varsity!!!
Thank you in advance!
Reflash stock Froyo rom, then go up to Gingerbread from there... You will probably loose all data when you restock. Hopefully you have a copy of your original rom..... Otherwise use another stock rom.
I have been using RemICS 1.3 with Semaphore kernel on my phone for a few months. I had a few problems with bootloop at first, which was solved completely after i flashed the Semaphore kernel and my phone has been running smoothly ever since.
However, today my phone started freezing and giving errors out of nowhere. I open a simple application like alarm clock and it says the application is stopped. I was only be able to open a few applications. So, I rebooted the phone thinking it would go back to normal. Unfortunately, rebooting revealed that my phone no longer can boot. It passes the kernel screen, goes to the RemICS animation and gets stuck there. Since I could go into Recovery Mode I have tried to restore from the backup I had from 10 days ago when my phone was running perfectly. Did not work. I had another backup from July, did not work, actually made things worse by stucking my phone at Samsung screen. Wiped cache, Wiped dalvik cache, did not work.. Made things worse by putting my phone into loop boot. I have tried flashing Devil kernel and another version of Semaphore kernel. Did not work.. Phone back into being stuck at RemICS logo.
Nothing I do seems to work. It just won't boot. I could try flashing a fresh firmware but I have some info on my memo application that i need to save as well as some text messages.
I really don't know how this happened out of nowhere. How can I save my data? Please help?
I've tried lots of ROMs, and been stuck in boot loops many times.
I've always got out of them by using Odin, and trying different kernels until one works, semaphore, devil, and an old GB one. Out of all the boot loops I've been stuck in there's never been a single time that one of those kernels hasn't worked...
Maybe I've just been lucky??
Edit: on reading again tho it looks to me that its your ROM that is the problem not the kernel.
I recommend using SMS Backup+ (free) from the play store next time

I recently updated my gt-p1000 to cm10, by following a youtube tutorial. After Two days of use , i encountered a bootloop.
i tried factory reset and wiped dalvk cache, cache but it still ddnt work. i then put ICS, (CM9) but still ddnt work.It still keeps restarting.
then i tried to install the latest kernel, but after i did this im stuck on the cyanogenmod logo, it just keeps rotating. I then used odin and down graded to the stock rom, and im suprised that the restarting still ddnt stop. It just keeps restrating every 20-30mins or sumtimes just after u turn it on, (10sec). Pls help Me, i've dont everything told on the internet ( wiped cache, dalvk cache, factory reset, formated sys) EVERYTHING!
Hi,
It sounds a lot like a stuck power button issue to me. Especially if it behaves the same after returning to stock.
But for other opinions and ideas, I will have your thread moved to your device section.
Good luck!
ted my galaxy tab p1000 2.2 froyo with z4mod.
Then initially I installed cwm with ROM manager for galaxy tab T because there wasn't any specific model of cwm for p1000.
But but when I switched off and booted recovery, stock recovery always came......I could access cwm only through the ROM manager ("boot into recovery")....and that too if i choose any function it starts to load and when I press home twice it says "replacing stock with cwm" and that goes on forever...
So I installed cwm with Odin as I couldn't access functions like "install" in cwm without going into the loading phase.....but as the process in Odin finished, my tab started to boot and at "galaxy", the sceen got all pixalated and it went till " samsung " and the whole process looped........ Help!
I actually was trying to install lollipop 5.0.2...
