Hi all,
So after I flash a new ROM (MIUI MGv2/RC8vC/MGv1) I always hang at the Galaxy S GT-I9000 screen - the first boot screen.
I am wondering what this means? is it a corrupt file, something wrong with my internal sdcard, ROM not installed properly?
Please help,
Thanks.
some times a wipe from recovery will help and goes back to normal boot
many issues may cause this problem for instance if framework.jar or android.policy.jar or... have some bugs , will happen like that
Hi,
By wipe you mean clearing the formatting system, data, cache, dalvik cache and a factory reset? I ask this because the MIUI roms are not are non-wipe and the instructions recommend you to format those places before install (which I did).
I mean wipe cache partition from recovery. just try it and ley us know if it works
Well I just tried again but it doesn't work because I can't access recovery mode. It hangs at the Galaxy S screen and doesn't move from there so I'm wondering why because if I can't fix the bad install then I can't access the recovery mode and can only flash.
if recovery dont work BUT download mode does,
start the whole process again, flash back to stock froyo with froyo bootloader.
did you come to MIUI from Gingerbread ??
Well i've done the process like 10 times, nearly every single time from froyo (JPU,JS5,Ezbase 2.0) and I also went from 2.1 to 2.2 and then to MIUI. The other times I have tried coming from CM7 as CM7 works.
well i have a similar issue but in my case i just wiped my data thru cwm on darky v8 xxjpy..
now i get boot loops,any idea what should i do??
i know this is not exactly the thread but if i get my answer it'll save me from starting a new one..
When I got bootloops i normally reflashed. If you don't have data it will probably work?
I assume you have data as your on Dark v8 when V9 is out?
i dont understand by have data??
i flashed v9.5 but went back to v 8 few months ago..
today i just wiped/factory reset my phone using cwm and it was succesful but now its bootloops and vibrations..
i never wiped my phone before and only have flashed using cwm,never used odin for flashing roms!!
OH I see, by data i meant personal data that you might want to back up...I'm not to most knowledgeable but I know how to flash roms. I reckon you should try to flash V8 it again if you can enter recovery.
Trying to install the Cynogen ICS ROM, and when installing the .zip, it loads the Samsung flash screen with Cynogen, then get the green guy and loads of text for about half a second, then it just reboots. Over and over for about 10 mins. WHat went wrong? What should I do?
It happend the same to me.
I just removed the battery and put it back, entered in CWM and reinstalled the ROM.
Good luck!
I somehow got into a recovery mode, but with the assumption it would all go wrong again, tried to install the .zip Darky rom instead, went through the process and said it worked but then it just went back to the Cynogen loop problem!? I just tried a Restore instead, but I haven't rebooted yet, should I wipe everything again, and try the ICM .zip again?
Yep, just go with the whipe. I hope you did a backup.
OK turns out the Restore failed, so now trying to reinstall ICS .zip again. fingers crossed!
yep backed it up, not that its seems to have helped.
Well now it's stuck in the Galaxy S bootscreen...
that really sucks....did you deactivated the lagfix before running the rom?
If the problem persists you have to run a basic ROM using ODIN.
Yes deactivated the lagfixI can't get into recovery or anything now, except download mode.
Download mode is all you need to run a ROM with Odin.
I recommend Amestris, it is a good ROM, good battery life but the thread in not complete, there are some files missing...for now.
I've put some older ROM on I had, then tried to install ICS again but now when I use Clockwork, and select the file it goes to recovery but I can't select any zip files, just reboot back to this awful old ROM!
I had same issue when I installed ics, what I did that worked was pull battery and go back into cwm, reflashed ics zip and it fully installed that time. Had same experience when flashing cm7 before.
Not getting anywhere with this. I get an option to install zip from sdcard which is where the update is (an where the darky update also is which worked), but there is an option to update from internal SD, which is not where the file is. Is it in the wrong place?
I think you would be best to use Odin 1.3 to flash DarkyROM Ficeto JVT base rom.
are you sure those files are still on your sd card?
The reason you need to pull the battery and reflash the ICS rom a few times is because Samsung ROM (most) have a different partition layout to CM7 based roms (which the ICS port is one).

Hello guys,
actually I've darkysrom with darky kernel on my SGS but I want to change to another custom firmware, mainly because of ICS.
Can I flash the new cfw just by using clockworkmod? Because I remember that there was something concerning the kernel which was important before flashing to another cfw.
Do I have to disable the lagfix before flashing?
Yes you must disable lagfix to avoid problems with the new kernel.

Do I have to seperately flash another kernel or is that been done by flashing the cfw?
Disable lagfix, wipe (data, cache, daliv cache), Flash ROM via CWM, flash new kernel. If it gives you bootloop go to CWM and flash kernel again. It should work ;-)
Hi,
i tried to flash slim ics but something wrong happened. first i opened clockwork recovery and wiped everything. after that i tried to install from zip and choosed the base file of ics slim rom but there came a message which said that the installation was aborted. then i've read in the tutorial that one has to format the system but it still didnt work.
now the phone doesnt boot anymore but i can get to clockwork recovery. i recognized that it is a modificated version from darky with the name "cwm darkycore recovery" or something like that.
can someone please help?
EDIT:
ok the phone is back alive. i flashed darkyrom with odin.
but i guess the same will happen if i try to flash slim ics again so there must be another way right?
EDIT2:
i got it. just installed the cm9 with cwm darky core recovery and after that installed slim ics.
if you've got to the trouble of odin-flashing the darkyrom back ,why didnt you just flash something else ?

Hi,
I have many times tried to flash CM7, but always happens weird thing.

2.I wipe cache then wipe data/factory reset then i go advanced and choose wipe Dalvik cache
3.Choose .zip from sd card
4.I choose update-cm7.1.0-GalaxyS-signed.zip
5.My phone flashes it
6.It reboots
7.Normal Galaxy S GT-i9000 then Galaxy S
Cyanogen Mod
8.It goes to recovery and posts text very fast then reboots again
9.It repeats everything what it does from section 7.
Im very confused so please help!
Have you tried flashing it again?
redo step 3 and onwards,
sometimes you just need to flash twice.
It seems like a corrupted download... Are you flashing from internal or external? Have you mounted before?
i tried to flash from internal
What version of CWM recovery do you have? Maybe flash a different ROM just to update CWM, and then flash the rom you want?
I had the same, or atleast a similar problem whilst trying to flash CM9. I fixed it by flashing the rom again.
You also might want to redownload the file incase it's corrupt.
i have CWM 5.0.2.7 and i downloaded the CyanogenMod file again so i try to flash it again
Any luck with your efforts this far?
yes, i succesfully installed CM9 about 3 months ago.
I'm not sure which build it was but it was the newest build
Just got my Galaxy S back from my Mum today (After I bricked it and sent for repair) she got a note2 omg... Decided to flash a custom rom..
Here goes..
First I followed this guide completelyhttp://http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Full_Update_Guide. After I flash the CM 10, my recovery was upgraded to v6.0.1.5 after reboot. But I cannot get pass the recovery. I will have the cm boot animation, then back to recovery again. Tried reflashing the rom, doesnt say any errors but still gets stuck at recovery.
Then I went thru the method at the wiki.cyanogenmod again and successfully flashed cwm recovery 2.5 again. Tried flashing the CM10 rom again but this time round, It shows a long error message ending with "status 7"
I am still able to go into download mode.
Was on stock unrooted 2.3.3 DXJV9.
I made the super no.1 noob mistake of not making a backup........... But, why is rooting and flashing of this phone so hard.....
Pls, any help is greatly appreciated.
Btw, I have manage to flash the stock image via odin but is still stuck in a boot loop.. after Odin completed and reboot, I am back into the stock recovery with the below error messages.
It will work

U just use GB jw4(your region) ROM (don't use single file like PDA).........you use files separately like this [PDA,phone,CSC,pit(512 or 513)]...............use Odin 1.85 for flashing files......,when u complete the flashing it automatically reboot to fulfill the flashing...........then also it gives red error means........ clear only wipe cache and don't clear wipe all data...........reboot your system..... I think this will work for u...........:fingers-crossed:
Thanks. Have it solved. Flashed with another rom with seperate files. I was using the the all in one previously. Got it to run CM10 nightly though till now still not too sure how... But, I m real happy now. It works great so far and I couldnt understand why Sammy refuse to roll out official ones even for 4.0..
Still trying to figure out how to root, flash SGS though.. I have done so for many other device but by far,... this phone is the most complicating....
Aj rocker root
By processor only we not getting stock ICS rom but we getting custom ROM by hacking processor.............
For rooting the ROM u want to be in stock GB ROM like 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 and then u want to download this file(http://download.chainfire.eu/132/CF-Root/SGS/CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS.zip)............. after download u want to open Odin 1.85 and select PDA then choose the downloaded file...........select start to flash the file.........reboot and enjoy the root bosssss......if u like this press thanks:fingers-crossed:
Just to make sure..
What I did was,
Flashed Android 2.3.5 XXJVS Firmware and rooted with CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVS-v4.1-CWM3RFS.zip
Flashed the speedmod kernel via heimdall
Wiped data/cache. Flashed Latest CM10 nightly
( at this point, there was a error "status 0" installation aborted. When I reboot, the CM10 boot animation flashed twice and it brought me straight to CWM 6.0.1.5. Is this normal behaviour?? Then, not too sure what to do, I wipe data/cache and flashed CM10 and gapps again. this time round, installation successful and after reboot it boot into CM10. )
Is the above normal behaviour?
Next time I wish to change rom, from where I now( CM10) just need to wipe Data/cache and flashed the other rom?
Try to see if you can flash another custom Rom, if that works then it could be that your files are corrupted..
Have you stated your problem over at CM forums..

Most times from GB to JB u have 2 flash custom 2, 3 times. So its normal when flashing custom the first time it takes u to bootanimation and hangs (take out battery and go to recovery with 3 button combo and flash again till it says install is completed) or directly into recovery.
If u wanna flash other jb rom just full wipe and flash new custom. Make sure u make a nandroid backup so u can go back easily
