Kabooot - it looks like your /efs folder is corrupt. If you have made a backup of that folder, you can try restoring it. There are some pointers on this thread.

thank you for your reply

If following all that stuff from the link does not work (I hope it does!), then you might try to flash a firmware with Odin, and select the option "Phone EFS Clear".
NOTE: I am not entirely sure this is safe!
But when I had the EXACT same problem you are having, I reflashed my phone like 20 times with many different firmwares, and a few times I selected that option. Then one time... just randomly... my phone started working, and I even got back my original IMEI and stuff.

I think he is a young kid & may not have a lot of experience/patience of many of us here, I think some patient soul here can guide him to flash an official ROM over Kies. I think Kies can see the phone in download mode & can update the firmware.

Have you solved your problem yet?

[Q] Emergency Firmware Recovery

Hello
I hope i have posted in the right section and someone can explain too me if this is right or wrong.
I just downloaded the 2.0 version of samsung kies software,when i plugged my phone in it said i could do a firmware upgrade for my phone.
So of course i did so,i first done the backup which was an option in the process.Then pressed ok and it started doing its thing.
Well i left it and came back too see a green android guy on the phone and a message on laptop saying the update had failed and i need too recover the fail by going into emergency firmware recovery mode.
I did this(pressed yes) and it started doing its thing again and rebooted the phone,after it had done it said too disconnect and reconnect my usb cable which i did and the phone was back running again.
The question i have is what basically just happened?
I presume it was a fail on the firmware update since thats what it told me but on checking my stats it had done what it said it was going too and thats upgrade from CSC: JP5 to CSC: JP6.
So it said it failed but on the samsung kies software it now says the csc JP6 and i cant update any firther.
Im sorry i should maybe of checked the code better too be honest i didnt check the full version upgrade, i just thought ok firmware upgrade yup ill do that and flicked through the yes options til the upgrade started.
Thanks for any replies.I have a untouched samsung galaxy S by the way,i not done anything too it except installed apps and games.So no roms,no lag fix,no hacks at all.

Its been a coupleof days now since my post so hope its ok too comment in it again so maybe i can get some help.
Im not sure if my first post explained itself enough so if anyone has any questions i will be happy too answer them.I dont know if my phone will be affected long term but the fail or not.
Csc..what is this why had the software felt it needed too be changed from 5 to 6 ?
the fact it said it failed yet on checking i cannot update again and it has in fact changed from 5 to 6 as it said it would.All my added shortcuts on home screens went but the files stayed.
csc....has anyone also got the changed firmware like i have and gone through the failure too get it.
Im trying too add my own questions in the hope someone has some answers since i see many questions get answered in this section within no time,but mine seems too of stumped some.
thanks for replies guys it will settle my mind and i will of course try too find my own answers and if all else fails i will contact samsung and ask them what went wrong.

Hi,
I installed Kies today and connected my girlfriends cellphone, a Samsung Champ Duos (don't know if it's a phone only for the Philippino market)... Same here, started up first time and Kies prompted me to update the phone's firmware. I followed the steps, something went wrong and I was told to perform an emergency recovery.
I tried, but after 63% an error message appear telling me that something went wrong and "if the problem persists please contact support centre".
I've tried the recovery process maybe 20 times now and same every time. I have already sent an email to the support, but hoping someone here knows how to fix this in the meantime.
Thanks in advance!

Not sure Kies can be unreliable...
Have you tried another computer?
Try the recovery again but hold the usb cable in place, it may have a loose connection
Either way support should answer you shortly and they will sort it out, as it should be under warranty and kies messed it up. They will probably tell you to find your nearest service centre...
@Caz2k11 if you ever read this again and still haven't got your answer, it shouldn't have affected you that there was a problem installing in the first place.
CSC - there is a sticky on the the general section that describes most of this stuff but in brief i think its either country specific code or country service code, something like that. Really its only important if you have problems downloading things from the market, or reception/data related issues. Usually carrier related... Its worth checking you have the correct one when you update as it saves you from changing it later which results in a factory reset.

Ahh damn it...
Got a reply from their support this morning. They apologized and told me I have to send the phone to my nearest service centre. Great for me living in the province and I'll bet the closest service centre is located in Manila....
Does anyone know if the *original rom* is available somewhere on the internet?

Most of us do not use kies to update
You can fiind the latest original ROMs at samfirmware.com

I'm running Andriod on my HTC Leo as well, but this is my girlsfriends phone, still warranty so I'll be a bit careful at the moment.
Have registered on the site mentioned above, not sure which file I'm going to use or anything, since I cannot start the phone to see the current firmware etc. The model no. is GT-E2652W and "SSN" is "E2652WGSMH", does that mean it's a E-series phone?

It means a few things ...
First of all, you are totaly at the wrong place since this forum section is for Samsung Galaxy S, and you Champ Duo , well, isn't a Galaxy S !
Second thing is that this forum, as well as samfirmware, deal mostly with Android phones, which your isn't, I believe. It does somehow look like, but isn't.
Sorry I can't help more

Yes, I'm awared of that. Found this thread when I Google-searched "samsung emergency recovery".

Sure, no arm done, it's just that non android phone have a different way to recover. I did a couple of googling too, but must admit I did not find a great deal of information either,
Sorry and best of luck for bringing your device back to happiness.

Many have this problem please help!

After upgrading the firmware successfully according to odin our P1010 wifi-only galaxy tabs are stuck in an infinite reboot sequence that happens so quickly that we cannot use our galaxy tabs for anything. Right before it reboots we are all getting:
"Process android.process.media stopped unexpectedly. Try again"
This occurs immediately after the upgrade when you are doing the initial setup of the device. It is rebooting about every 15-30 seconds.
Please help us. We can still download using odin but we do not have the stock firmware. Someone out there help please. We are all going absolutely bonkers insane. Thx.

Dont mean to be rude but i just read that whole thread and it has absolutely nothing to do with the problem we are having. not once in that thread is mentioned any problems after upgrading firmware. in fact the thread seems to be about the P1000 with only a small bit about the P1010 which is unrelated to our problem.
Does anyone else have a solution or anything helpful?

sorry for not explaining. I thought you might want to use/flash the particular p1010 firmware discussed in that thread instead of what you have right now so as to eliminate/erase your error/problem.
I don't have a p1010 so I cannot verify. Next time I will not respond anymore to avoid misunderstanding.

no, i just gave up. my tab has been sitting on my desk for like 3 months unused. i guess i'll try recharging it if i can find it buried under the pile of papers and giving it another attempt at finding a solution.
not going to hold my breath tho... since it appears to be impossible to find the official united states p1010 firmware or whatever u guys call it.

sorry, didn't mean to offend you. i am just so utterly miserable about this device. i was so excited to get it, then i read about updating to fix some speed issues and increase battery life so i followed the guide and so i have only been able to use my device a total of about 1 day in about 5 months. very frustrating.
also, i am deathly afraid of "just trying" to flash anything as i dont want to make my device even worse than it already is.
i'll tell u one thing, i will never ever ever ever buy another samsung product again. they so very clearly dont give a rat's a** about the suffering of their customers. it doesn't matter if we did this to ourselves, they should still help. it is a stupid software fix that costs them nothing. do they think if they dont help us we will break down and buy a second one? i dont f'ing think so.

I had the same problem once.
Maybe the files are not matching like .PIT with Modem or bootloader thats why it keeps on restarting.
You should reinstall .PIT file then install accurate PDA , CSC and MODEM files for your own region.

Yea, this is the problem. Cant get United States region files. That is the whole issue.

SOLVED !!!
if you are having the infinite reboot problem on your US galaxy tab gt-p1010 do this:
1. download this rom (it is the hong kong rom)
http://www.multiupload.com/KJO2KALU2O
password: nomoreuncheckedfirmwares
2. put your tab in download mode by holding down the volume down button first then press and hold the power button.
3. start odin3 version 1.7, plug your tab into your pc.
4. verify you have the yellow in the ID:COM area in odin then select the pit file, the csc file and the pda file (the only file remaining) and hit start.
5. wait patiently while it downloads everything and reboots.
note that it will start up in chinese or japanese (not sure which, guessing chinese). also note that i am using windows xp, probably works in 32-bit windows 7 but may have problems with 64-bit windows 7. not sure cause i have not tried it. seems that i read that though.
good luck !!!
thanks to stsights for the solution and waqypaqy for uploading the file to a more accessible site!!! you guys make me more happy than u can possibly know...

PROBLEM: Galaxy Ace flashed with Korean ROM for SHW-M240S

Hi All, I have done something stupid and now my ACE is a little bit broken.
After flash procedure with ODIN and Korean rom for SHW-M240S, my IMEI was changed and on a main screen appears sw number. So phone is working but different IMEI persist and this stupid RED sw number on a wallpaper
I was flashing back my phone with a lot of different roms, reset to factory values and still the same. Maybe full recovery from CODEROM could help, the problem is that i don't make backup Hope to find kind user, who will make a clean backup and send it to me... I'm just a girl and probably this is real problem

Why were you flashing a Korean Firmware anyway? You might get away with flash european roms on india or south american aces. But the korean ace has a different feature set. I think you have to restore nv ram which stores the IMEI. Maybe someone with experience with the matter will be able to help.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App

Hope that i find someone with experience

Hey!
Maybe this can help out.

Still nothing, in Service Menu i have found menu "rebuild NV", so i did it but my IMEI are still corrupted.

Hey, iv got the same problem. Please help us! :-(

I was looking for similar files in European and Korean software... File amss, which is in MODEM tar archive looks suspicious... In all European roms this file has the same size, in Korean rom it's bigger. Maybe it overwrites something important in ACE?

Im trying everything and searching everywhere but still found nothing :-(

maybe someone advise if this helps https://opensource.samsung.com/reception/reception_main.do?method=reception_search&searchValue=S5830

one solution is installing VillainRom, there is no sys info on display. interesting!

[SOLVED] Problem Sim Card: No calls, no sms & no 3g

UPDATE
PROBLEM SOLVED:
Go to this thread for the solution.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548453
Hi all,
Since yesterday I've been trying to fix my phone.
It doesn't recognize my SIM card anymore.
I think it's my fault and I'll have to go to the Samsung store but I thought someone here might know a solution.
I'm aware that I did something stupid...
So here's the story:
Yesterday I flashed Cyanogenmod 10.1, I installed some apps and I noticed that already 4GB of the 7,42GB was used.
The apps only took 2 GB of the 4GB. So I went to the CWM recovery, scrolled down to mounts and storage and removed all the storage...
Then I flashed Cyanogenmod again (because everything was removed, OS included). And now my SIM card isn't working in my device anymore.
It's for sure that my SIM card isn't the problem, because when I put my SIM card in my old phone, it will work.
After flashing I got a message of Vodafone, which says that they will send the right settings for my phone to use their network.
But that message never arrived at my phone.. I also tried to manually set up the right ''settings'', but that didn't work.
I have tried anything I could. I thought maybe it will work if I install stock rom, but again, it didn't work for me.
I still think it's a software problem, but it might also be a hardware problem.
It might be useful for you to know that I live in Holland. (maybe things are working different here, idk)...

try this
try this ....
using root explorer or file explorer or what else,
open file "factorymode" in efs/factoryApp directory, it probabely says "off", change to "on" (yes "on" is the correct setting to turn it off), then save
reboot
good luck

OK, I'll try this. Thank you for your reply!
I'll come with edit if it was successful or not.
About the IMEI, Yes I have it.
Should I do something with it?
UPDATE (I tried the 1st method):
I went to the thread you linked to called ''[HOW-TO] Enable Three Button Combo [RECOVERY]''.
I don't know exactly what it does.
It enables the ''Three Button Combo'', but I thought I already had this.
I did ''Benzonat0r's way'':
1) I flashed it as PDA
2) After flashing my phone rebooted
3) Nothing changed, still no working calls, sms etc.
Now I think you meant the 2nd method.
Should I do the 2nd method, so I'll get ''a "La'Fleur" branded phone''. ?
Is it safe to flash this Russian ROM?
"I8190 серв. укр.rar" is now downloading.
I'll try this now.. Hopefully it will work.
UPDATE:
I have tried the 2nd method now.
I flashed "I8190 серв. укр.rar". (PIT, PDA and CSC).
After that it didn't boot (which is right, because it's ''La Fleur''.)
So I flashed official firmware (dutch).
After my phone rebooted, I could see immediately that it didn't work
It doesn't show the signal.. and it doesn't have signal.
I'm sure that in my region the signal of Vodafone is OK, because when I put my SIM card in my old phone it works..
I'm sure my SIM Card is fine, it must the software of my phone..
It's my fault, I shouldn't have formatted all in ''mounts and storage'' about 4 days ago...
Another isue is the language which was displayed was Russian...
Normally after I flashed official firmware the language was dutch.
What I'm going to do now is again format all in CWM recovery.
If that doesn't work for me, I'll bring my phone to the Samsung store if no other solutions found..
Anyway, thanks for your help.
If you have any other ideas please tell me.
Thanks in advance!
Greetz, Daniel.

Problem Solved 100%.
Solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548453
The instructions written down below in this thread and post did NOT work!
I solved the problem myself:
I formatted again everything on my phone. (in cwm recovery at 'mounts and storage'.
I flashed stock recovery.
I flashed official firmware.
Done.
No more Russian language issue.
This thread can be closed.
The solution was a lot easier than I thought.
I think a ROM bugged my phone after I formatted all.
So as I said, problem solved.
Thank you for the your replies!
