[Q] Need fast help - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello, i was rooting my galaxy s i9000. and something is wrong here. evrything was okey finished, but phone allways rebooting when it shows programs starting read sd card and then it reboot and do same again.

If you are using an External SD, power the phone off (or do a battery pull it necessary) and take the external sd out. Then try powering the phone back up.
I've had the exact same phone symptoms from an external sd card dying on me before...

Need help with internal storage!

Well guys....i think this problem stems from me prematurely removing the usb cord. I Understand that. But here is the other couple of predicaments. lol Ok i'm on ICS Stunna 4.3 ......well after something went wrong i'm unable to "repair" my internal storage. Everything still works smooth....but i can't add things to my internal card. Every time i hook up to the computer it says it needs to scan and fix the card.Well the problem is starts to fix it.....but never does....progress bar never finishes. Tried this on 3 different computers. Nothing.So try to install a different rom....i have some on my internal and external. Always aborts in cmw....never finishes. So on top of all this Stunna has started acting odd. Likely read errors.....but problem is i can't switch roms! lol I have tried everything. I was wondering should i format both cards? But if i do that how can i back everything up if i can't access my card? Any help would be appreciated guys. Hoping i don't have to Odin back to stock.
Cliffs- Internal storage won't repair on any computer-Can't install anything in CMW because of it
I have the exact same problem now, as you do. CWM can't install any .zip files, I can't flash Abyss kernel, so it's just stuck in that end.
I installed ICS Stunner 4.5 coming from GB with full wipe. This happened to me after I tried to copy some files over to external SD Card and it failed, seemed like the phone froze (SOD), so I figured flashing another modem would do the trick (read it in ICS Stunner thread's 1st post). Tried to transfer the file over a cable, but same thing happened. After rebooting I just grabbed it from dropbox and installed the modem successfully. I went ahead to try and fix the mounting problem, so I plug in the cable and it offers me to scan and fix both partitions (internal and external). External card finishes successfully, but not the internal one. And after that I'm in the same situation as OP.
Any ideas anyone?
Enable usb debugging(setting-appl-development)
Connect to pc
Select to copy file to fr computer from notification
You will find separate drive letter for int n ext card

Gonna try it now. Have lots of pictures to backup first tho
EDIT: Same thing happens as with scan and fix procedure. It starts and just sits there, nothing happens. When I try to stop "USB Storage in use" it just shows the spinner and hangs in there. Only holding the power button helps solve this. My guess is something in the internal SD card partition is broken... just can't say what or how to fix it.

Same problem^^^^ Not sure what to do about all this
Short story:
Formatting didn't work.
Long story:
Okay, so following the idea to format the internal sd card's partition, I achieved it not through Windows format dialog, but through the half-broken CWM. Both my SD Cards were formated (internal and external) in the process. So since I used the external one for backing up important info I had to use [email protected] UNDELETE to get it back (after booting to ICS). In the process the native SD Card mount service seemed like broken, I had to perform a few hard resets. Hangs seemed to occur whenever I tried writing to one of the cards. I downloaded multi-mount SD card app from Play Store and transfered AbyssKernel's .zip and now when I try to install it from CWM it says
Installing: /sdcard/AbyssNotekernel42RedTouchOriginalLogo.zip

And that's it... so basically back to the start. Any more ideas?
Please help if you have any ideas on what might work. Us 2 guys are in trouble...lol
I don't know if this will help or not but give it a try.
Enter into the download mode and flash any stock firmware using PC Odin. This way you don't need to access any of the cards. After flashing stock ROM, try fixing the internal SD again and if it still doesn't fix, send in your note to Samsung for repairs.
Sounds too simple to be working though but worth a shot.

Well for now the phone works, but it's stuck on ICS Stunner. I was thinking to use PC Odin or Mobile ODIN, but what if it doesn't work because the partition is corrupted in some way (as it is now, because CWM can't flash anything).
I'd like to hear more insight before I go the odin-way

I'm downloading an old GB rom myself..
While I am, I can share a thought: I feel that ICS is not yet ready.. at least not for me. Feels nice and fast but buggy USB transfers is a big no-go for me. Also after trying AOSP derived ROM, I decided to wait for a good Samsung edition ICS because all the little tweaks add a good feeling to the experience, I tend to miss them on AOSP or AOKP or w/e

Oooh thanks! Didn't know this. So now I'm pretty confident because if flashing conventionally fails I'll just repartition and get rid of all the partition errors. What do you know, I feel like I learned something new today
SOB! Just did the whole Odin to stock thing and i am stuck in a bootloop! lol
I think my problem is used a .tar instead of .pit.....where can i get the .pit?
Ye same happened to me. Reboot to recovery (volume up + home + power) and do a data wipe/factory reset. After that it boots. Rooted and flashed CWM just fine after that, copying my old GB nandroid backup to SD card as I write

Too bad for me, since I had recovered the latest nandroid with undelete software (cus external sd was accidentally formatted) and now I'm getting a MD5 mismatch Guess I might as well start fresh now, since the last good backup is like 2 months old... Another lesson for me.. always keep your nandroids safe
So everything fine now??

Yeah. After quite a time of failed attempts we succeeded. ODIN > Stock GB ROM > ROOT + CMW > Anything you like. No re-partitioning was needed in the process
i have same problem but more complicated. iam on stock GB and its happened after flash bad kernel
the case in detail's :
i flashed wrong kernel on my device previously and now when iam trying to flash another kernel even use ODIN or CWM everything going well and completed but when check i found the old kernel still. i tried many times with same results and no error .
- system can read/write/mount the internal memory but the new pasted files deleted after restart. external card behave normal and i can preform flash using files pasted on it.
- in CWM wipe/format/flash operations running well but no effect on device even restarted to CWM only.
- device has yellow triangle. is it effected?
- the devil kernel stacked in machine is 2.6.35.7-gb4846d2 [email protected] #2 and the build no. is jpkj4
system running normal but cannot keep any changes i do if restarted.
-system rooted and no problem with root
-can access adb
- ODIN behave same CWM, operation work but no change.
can anyone help me guys?
i did repartition the memory useing PIT for note butno change also
thank you all in advance

Got myself in trouble while partitioning

I was trying to fix my microsd card and came across this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=907436
I used the dd command at first for mmcblk0 which unfortunately was internal SD card. I found it out when I used the fdisk command in 2nd step. Then I exited and tried again with mmcblk1 which is external SD and at the end I tried to reboot. Now I the phone doesn't get turned on at all. No recovery or download mode too. Please someone point me to the right direction...

PS as far as I have understood I have erased some blocks from internal SD and there seems no way of formatting it again since device won't turn on. I still have it under warranty. What should I do? Go to Samsung and try to play dumb? Like I was upgrading my phone to ics and now phones not working?? Plz help..

Can you still get into recovery!?
If yes, you should flash the original pit file for your n7000 either the 16gb or 32gb. It will automatically re-partition your internal sd to its original state.

No it doesn't go into recovery. It just has a black screen.
Sent from my JellyBean using XDA
Try holding power button+home+volume up key for about 30 secs. Open odin, plug in your phone, try to check odin detects your phone. Sometimes the screen just goes black but it in fact enters recovery. If your phone gets detected flash the pit file and flash any safe kernels just tobe sure then flash any rom you want. Hope you get it sort out.

There are few things can try:
1. check/recharge battery
2. SS service
2. an usb Jig to get the phone in download mode
3. jtag riff box. It can fix bootloader and get the phone work again from hard brick. They have service in many countries.
GL!
@vlxdxmxr
I tried both download and recovery and connected but nothing happens. Is there any other way to make sure whether the device turns on? I remember that on lcd the devices turns black. But on amoled there is no sign of life...
@forest1971
Battery is working. It gets heated up when charged it for 3 hours. Are you sure this is just a soft brick which a jig can solve ? I mean I have changed some mmcblks. Is there any chance that download mode is gone? Then if I m not wrong a jig can't solve this since it just forces to download mode. SS is last option since I have lost my bill...
And another reason I am afraid to go to SS is because I was running a custom ROM. They might not even accept it for repairs.

Sometime a usb jig can help to get the phone in download mode. From there you can flash orig pit file and then flash bootloader (from dr.ketan toolbox). Jig is cheap so should order online and try it. If not work then try jtag. It is more expensive but almost sure will work and will fix your phone. The service may cost around 1/4 of the motherboard. If you need to buy the box itself it cost more and do it yourself with the box is not easy at all.

@forest1971 And how much would that be? I have ordered a jig already will get it by Saturday.

[HELP] Possibly fulling dead SGS

Hi!
I'd like to explain the s*** I'm in right now.
My phone, when running under slim bean, was not recognized to my computer when plugged in. So couldn't transfer files via usb
I downloaded slim bean rom, flashed stuff, got stuck into bootloop. Can't access my recovery anymore.
Now, the usual stuff you do is getting into download mode, then flash the kernel in the tar file.
BUT. My phone can access download mode, but my computer says the same old s***, deviced not f****** recognized. So I can not flash anything now.
Is it a dead end? Have you ever heard about this weird issue?
Do you have any idea ?
I tried doing the same step on my friend's computer. Didn't work as well, same damn issue
I'm offering a damn pint of beer to the one who can help me :good:
Thanks !

try My Android Solutions for a solution
But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power
button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....
Tips before Flashing:-
Backup all your important files, contacts, SMS, game data, images etc to PC or
Ext SD card. or make Nanadroid Backup If you have CWM
Backup your EFS Folder to PC or Ext SD card
Enable USB Debugging on Phone. Touch menu>Settings>Applications>Development>
Charge your battery to more than 50% before you attempt any sort of flashing.
Disable Samsung KIES when using Odin. Kill Kies.exe, KiesTrayAgent.exe, &
KiesPDLR.exe using Task Manager on PC
Use only ROM and solution for your model and Wipe x3
