Read before posting...read the stickies....and you didnt mention what kind of brick....is it soft brick or hard brick...what kind of rom? Froyo or GB?
For all the odins for Stock roms and kernels
I decided to Odin a few of those, but, for whatever reason cwm recovery doesn't start up, goes to the 3e I try to reinstall packages, sends back signature errors.

Flash a kernel with CWM or find the modded 3e recovery fix.
Tried, both froyo and gingerbread with and without bootloader, with and without cwm also.

You are doing something wrong. If you use a kernel that has cwm baked it there is no 3e it goes to cwm.

I need ROM to flash with Odin. Clockwork thing is not working for me and all the modded rom's are clockwork oriented. I am actually dying to install cynogen. Off late they stopped releasing odin versions. Somebody please suggest some rom better than the stock Froyo which is flashable using odin.
My phone is rooted and unlocked.

Exactly i am in leaked froyo ji6. I rooted it.
You have two options. Swap in a kernel that has 2e recovery or flash back to stock and then flash the rom of your choice.

What he said. I would use odin to flash stock

Hi, pls help me.
My SGS 2.3.3 running CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVO-v3.2-CWM3RFS.zip, then i flashed up with Circular battery.zip (from Juwe's Rom) and install it with CWM (just want to try up as i never do before), after flashing, my SGS keeps rebooting after loading booting amination in 5 seconds and never stop until i remove the battery. I put in battery again, switch on, but same, it still keeping reboot. I'm a beginner. I very regret now after flashing .zip file with CWM.
Pls help me.

Reflash 3 part firmware with odin, I recommend ezbase, for stock +root, and don't panic, as long as you can get download mode all can be saved, stay calm

Had successfully flashed with original firmware 2.3.3 DXJV9 and did the factory reset. However all my sms has gone .
Btw, what is the best root kernel for this firmware?
I'm pretty sure JVO and JV9 are the same in kernel aspects so you should be able to use CF Root 3.2 JVO. The reason for these boot loops might have been because of the rom you were using, if it was a stock one it's no wonder it went into boot loops as Juwe's rom is deodexed so the addon would definitely not work. If it was a deodexed I'm not sure how it could have happened. But really the addon was made for Juwe's rom so unless you were running it it wasn't really the addons fault. Tips for the future: Make a backup in CWM, saves a lot of hassle with odin and saves your stuff. Have a CWM flashable rom on your SD card which saves you needing odin to recover. Hope this helps

If you can get in to download mode, then you can use Odin or Hemidall. Most roms will root you automatically.
Not really. Not many roms are odin/heimdall. You need to root and install cwm to be able to install a custom rom

no you dont.
if you are on 3e recovery, then you just need to flash a kernel via ODIN that has CWM built in
CWM has nothing to do with root. on galaxy S devices it just creates an update.zip file
Rooting your stock ROM is actually not required to install a custom ROM, depending on which ROM you are installing. For some, all you would need to do is place the Clockworkmod update zip on you internal sd, along with the rom you want to install, then boot into CWM using 3-button combo, reinstall packages twice, install zip from sd and that should be it.
However, there are some details that you may encounter such as:
If you are on stock 2.2 you have to get around 3e recovery which wont allow you into CWM recovery without a hack. Or you can flash back to stock 2.1 to avoid this problem entirely (using ODIN3 1 click, if you know how)
This simple install is really for custom Froyo 2.2 ROMS, which looks like what you should be doing anyway if you have to ask this question.
Just READ as much as you can before you do anything.
If you simply dont like the idea of having root privileges you can remove root after installing a custom rom. I have done this for my friends in the past so they dont go do anything stupid on accident. There is a 1-click root/unroot app floating around the forums for the galaxy S that has worked for me on all 2.1/2.2 roms but never attempted with gingerbread as I use root and haven't flashed a friends phone in a while.
Hi all.
I picked up a used cappy that was "bricked" for cheap. It simply bootlooped on the AT&T screen.
Took it home, hooked it up and odin'ed stock kfc1 with bootloaders onto it. I have now tried every one click Odin or hiemdal gb file I can find, and it just sits at the att screen. Download mode works fine, recovery doesn't.
Flashing a gb kernel with cwm through odin works, but still no boot or recovery.
What am I missing?
Thanks!

you might want to try flashing a stock ROM with Odin, I'm sure you can find some around the forum =) It's really hard to hard brick the cappy, and since download mode works all you need is a working ROM, so yeah, just go with a stock ROM first
A stock ROM is what I've been attempting to do. I have tried all the 1 click stock packages in the sticky in the development forum..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA
Try not using a 1 click
I tried that as well.
I flashed one at a time (meaning just the bootloader, then just the kernel, and finally the rom itself), as well as everything at once.
Proper bootloaders flash fine, kernel flashes fine, and roms appear to flash fine.
Just failure to boot or recovery..
I'm at a loss..
Edit; autocorrect fail

Sounds like the same problem I'm having, unfortunately I believe it's related to a bad internal sd partition and as of yet I've found no way to fix it
If you flash stock eclair, can you enter recovery?
That was the only recovery I was able to access, from there running adb shell, then dmesg I was able to see that the internalsd was corrupted or at least not mounting.
Still not able to enter recovery even on Eclaire.
I think Ill send it to Samsung USA and see what they say..

I figured I would update this, I called Samsung and gave them my imei number and they stated it was still under warranty.
So I sent them the device.
The internal SD was corrupt or bad as stated on the invoice.
I have it back and it works free of charge!
Thanks Sammy!

hi. ok so i flashed cm9.1 on my verizon galaxy tab schi800 and it wasnt working as well as my old galaxy cubed rom for me so i tried to restore my backup. no go, bootlooped. so i reflashed cm9 in cwm and it worked. then i already had the stock files and have restored my tab back to factory several times through heimdall a year or so ago so i flashed that thinking i would go stock get root and go back to cubed that way. now im stuck at verizon screen with factory recovery and download mode working but im at a loss. if i can get a cwm in heimdall .tar or something i can flash that and then reflash cm9 and that will work
i read where apparently you cant go back to 2.3.5 after flashing cm9 after the fact (sigh) so if anyone could throw me a link to a flashible rom for my tab in heimdall or a zip for cwm that can be flashed with heimdall or tell me any other way to fix this id be very gratefull. thanks

yep. that worked. im back on cm9.1 thank you so much. now i have to figure out if i can go back to stock somehow then flash cubed or if i should try cm10. cm9 is draining my battery horribly lol.
The thread also guide how to return to stock, but maybe a sprint stock, which is fine if you are flashing cube anyway.
