[Q] Semi-bricked Phone - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I admit I am the noob of noobs, so this complete jobber asks for your help.
Having been on 2.3.5 Gingerbread XFJVA using the method from the website below and this worked perfectly fine
http://androidadvices.com/update-samsung-galaxy-i9000-official-gingerbread-235-xfjva-firmware/
I tried to root the phone and upon rebooting was faced with this screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The phone can enter download mode (but not recovery mode), but I'm scared to try anything without reassurance. What do I do? can someone please give me some step by step help, I just want to get back what I had before the root (ie. the 2.3.5 XFJVA)
Thanks!

Try this, with the correct PIT and PDA files:

correct,
you have now to reflash the entire stock Samsung ROM with Odin, checking RE-PARTITION and with the correct pit file.

my bad, forgot to quit Samsung Kies.. that was the problem..

[Q] help - unsuccessful rooting, phone stuck on booting screen

hi, i'm completely new to the android experience, so I know next to nothing about rooting. I read the post on how to root my samsung galaxy sII and decided to root it. I did the odin with
XWKDD_insecure.tar, and it was fine. Following that, I went on to use superoneclick. However, everytime i tried to root using superoneclick , the program becomes not responding on my
computer, so I gave up. After that, I turned on my phone and the wifi and 4g no longer works. So i follow an post trying to restore the factory firmware, the only catch is, my phone is
an US Sprint phone, and the firmware available in the post was the UK version. I used odin to run the UK version of samsung simfree firmware, but it failed. Following that, I went to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881 to download the android 2.3.3 for north america. I ran it using odin and it failed as well. so now my phone will turn
on but its stuck on the page that says samsung galaxy s2 with a warning sign on it. I can't turn it off with the power button. I have to manually remove the batter. Someone please help
me, I just got this phone last week.
Now its stuck on this :

Tab 7' P100 Sprint flash problem

Hello guys I am having a huge problem with my Galaxy Tab SPH-P100 7' the one for Sprint. Now I am not sure what happened but I got a "Samsung loop" screen and I decided to use "Stock Odin/Heimdall Files: Stock EF17 Tars" post to re flash the whole thing. Now after ODIN successfully flashed device now I do see Sprint animation and then I have this error. If possible you know what to do I'll be very grateful , because from tutorial above I was thinking tar+ pit should of made my device like new. But at first it looked like it did it and then BOOM .... this

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I still can go to download and recovery modes and I guess it's matter of selecting proper tar+ pit ? I really don't know if possible help me out.
Thank you !
P.S.
To MOD, I post 2 identical posts because I simplyu could not find exact forum I need. Thank you for understanting
I'm in the exact same position, and I believe that it is our internal SD card that is damaged, that's why mmcblk0 (internal SD) fails to load, and why using ICS roms leads to the Encryption Unsuccessful bug.
The only solution I've found that makes sense in all possible ways is this HARDWARE fix but I'm a bit scared of trying it, so I'm currently working on a software only solution but its taking a while...

Same thing happened to me flashing a Tmobile rom. To prevent this you need to go through the setting and allow unlocked bootloaders (or something like that, currently flashing my phone to look it up) but this will prevent this lock from triggering. How I got past this? Odin'd back to stock and flashed everything again.
Bro phone doesn't go to main windows how I can go to setting it's only stuck on bootloop
Have you tried flashing the stock image in odin?
Stock rom from sammobile?
Yeah, you'll need to get familar with the hardware keys and how to boot into download mode with them. Typically I'd link you with instructions but I think googling it yourself will do you some good. Do some research and be sure to answer nicely to those who offer help.

I messed up my phone, need some help.

I decided I wasn't going to root/install any roms on this phone, but Samsung recently updated their Samsung Pay app and there has been a huge square at the bottom of my screen for quick access to this stupid ****ing app that I can't uninstall and will never use. So I decided to try and install a new ROM on it and I was following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...m-darthstalker-note5-version-1-aroma-t3212091
I don't exactly know how it happened, I got lost in tons of pages of guides and whatnot, but I eventually installed Noble Kernel, which then gave me the KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING boot stuck error. I then tried to install TWRP because apparently Noble Kernel is the only one you can load via Odin, and now im getting RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING.
All I can boot into is download mode. I tried flashing stock android and odin always fails after less than a second, and it gives no reason why. Ive tried every version of odin, all my USB ports, and different stock image files.

Has anyone gone through this? I have no idea what to do next.
Same issue... is there a resolution
Did you ever figure this one out im in the same boat and would really like to know what to do

If u can still go in download mode then search for SamFirm in xda or look into general section of note 5 thread. I think ur model is T version. Here u can download the 4 files thru SamFirm and flash thru ODIN method.

Thank You very much
I think your device could pretty easily be fixed by just reinstalling the stock ROM through Odin.
Follow these simple steps:
Download stock ROM from SamMobile. Here is a direct link to your device. Simple select the right firmware for your phone and download.
Download flashing tool, in this case, Odin. Make sure to download it from a reliable source as 3rd parties sometimes do include viruses.
Boot your phone into download mode by pressing the Volume down and Bixby button at the same time as you plug in the USB-c cable.
Use Odin to flash all the stock firmware files except for the HOME_CSC one.
Congrats you have successfully recovered your phone. Now give yourself a well-deserved pat on the back.
Also, please place your thread in the right forum in the future. That way you can get help much quicker.
If this answer did help you, please mark it as the solution as it help people in the future.
