Did I screw my galaxy s? Restore Operation?

Hey all!
I hope I can get a fast reply, since my time online is limited.
Anyways, i had darkys rom 9.5 installed and i decided to switch on voodoo lagfix. When i went for a system reboot i would see the samsunga galaxy S logo and the words "Restore Operation" being repeated over and over without progress, i took out the battery. I tried switching it on again several times without success
So the question:
Is my galaxy S considered garbage now or what should I do?
Is it over? Im so into android phones and i was trying to actually put money aisde and thought i would not be seeing another android phone for a year or 2. So I guess i will go for a new one if that is really the case, but that is not the point of this thread anyway sorry for drifting away.
Anyways, thanks for the answer in advance, greatly appreciated

Can you get in recovery mode and bootloader mode?
If so desable any lagfix if you got it
Enabled.Then flash an official rom

Thanks a lot for responding
Well, i tried getting into recovery mode without success . I am able to get into the download mode though, if that is of any help.
As for bootloader? What is that?
Once again thanks for the fast response..
EDIT: So does that mean my phone is now a helpless case? Or is there any way around it?
I found a thread via google where a user had a similar problem. Only difference being that he was on darkys rom 9.2, where as i am on 9.5.
I believe the procedure would be the same, but im really new to all of this and before completely wrecking this phone i would rather see what people here have to say to it.
He couldnt boot his phone and recovery mode didnt work, however , just like in my case, download mode works. He was told to flash 9.2 Resurrection edition onto his phone and it seems as though everything had gone well for him.
Would me doing the same thing perhaps solve my problem?
Only one question remains, how do i flash a rom? I followed this guide, very simply.. pretty much made for dummies, haha.
darkyrom.co m/community/index.php?threads/guide-installing-darkys-rom-on-2-2-2-2-1-i9000-i9000m-only.1041/
How exactly do i flash 9.5 extreme edition onto my phone again? The only program i recall using is odin 1.3, but that was in order to flash a kernal onto my phone.
I believe this is the rom i'm using: Darky's ROM Extreme Edition 9. I just do not know how to flash it, according to the guide i had to upload it to my phone, boot my phone in recovery mode and select the zip file and BAM! Now,however, i only have access to download mode. Meh. . .
Anyways, before i pull off a stupid stunt i would like to get some confermation before proceeding.
Thank you

Yeah, you have download mode, so recovering through Odin is possible. You could flash a stock rom or darky's resurrection. That guide you linked looks fine to me.

How though? The guide states that i need to put darky's rom onto my phone. Then i need to get into recovery mode (which i no longer have access to) and install it

Darky's resurrection seems like the best course for you since, as the name implies, it was created to bring phones back from similar situations.
Just follow the directions EXACTLY...and good luck.

Sir yes sir, i will give it a shot
Thank you for replying, i will post back the reesults asap
EDIT: oh .. this is something i cannot do:
"
2. Disable all lagfixes by going into the Recovery. Disable both normal and /system lagfixes. This is a must."
proceed with darky resurrection anyway?
EDIT2: Another problem popped up:
2. Wipe/Factory Reset phone. This is required. Turn off phone and then boot into Recovery (Vol UP+Home Key+the Power Button.). Select the 'wipe data/factory reset' option (using Power button if on custom ROM/custom kernel, or the Home key if on stock I9000 firmware). Then select Yes to do it.
i followed darky resurrection's guide up to the part 7, (after flashing with odin). After the reboot i was supposed to get an error:
7. After ODIN completes procedure and the phone reboots, a screen will come on the phone with 'Android system recovery <2e>' written at the top, and the following text will be written at the bottom:
"E:Invalid command argument
--Install from package--
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
#MANUAL MODE#
-- Appling Muti CSC...
Installing Muti CSC"
However, the phone reboots in my case but just repeats the same error over and over.
Samsung galaxy logo appears and a robotic female voice keeps repeating : "Restore Operation"
I have no way to proceed to part two as i cannot access recovery mode
I guess it is over?

No one can help anymore?

I'm not sure but have you tried reflashing the kernel? do it through odin, a lot of time it can fix it just by doing that. If that works then go ahead and flash darkyy resurrection. Almost everyone is able to bring their phone back to life using his 9.2 method
Hope this works for you. Even if out doesn't don't worry because as long as you can get into download mode someone here will be able to provide more in depth solution. Try the irc in darkyy forum see if stone there can help you

Flash a stock 3 file firmware available from samfirmware.com with .pit file and re-partition ticked
This should put your phone back to stock completely, once you have done this it will be as you got it from the box
Then you can start again to install Darkys
Update
Haha I have just done the same thing except I was disabling lag fix, done the above and it does work!

galaxy tab sgh-t849 I need professional help

I just got this tab and like every other android i get I rooted it. I used superoneclick -- worked fine. then downloaded cwm and flashed the recovery. of course when i went into recovery it was 3e so i couldnt actually use cwr without the bypass fix. Anyway -- i used some recovery fix -- which i think was for a vibrant -- wasn't thinking. Once it rebooted into recovery it showed some yellow letters then went blank. The computer still recognizes it but the tab won't boot. i can reset it by turning it off and on but it only shows tmobile splash and the yellow letters scrolling in recovery then goes blank again. please help. i've been reading everything but no one seems to have had this problem.
thank you very much

Put it in a blender, jk, send it back to samsung.

is that really my best option??
i figured there would be some manual way to reflash the recovery or maybe complete firmware with a recovery built in. it will still go into download mode -- like i said the computer still recognizes it but I just don't know where to start. ive never used odin and not a pro at adb/sdk but i can usually follow directions pretty well. i've rooted g1's, mytouch 3g fenders slides, inspires, atrix, vibrant, captivates so i'm not giving up yet. i know someone is willing to help.

from the off position, when you press and hold volume down then a moment later without letting up from volume down also hold power button until lights turn on, what does it do?

download all below zips, and unzip them
run it usb driver. say yes to everything. plug in tab to computer in download mode. let it install tab drivers
unplug tab.
open odin
Watch the first box on the left. ID:COM
plug in tab to comp in download mode.
That box should light up yellow, that means your tab in connected and ready to go.
place unzipped stock rom in PDA.
Press Start.
When done it should say all threads completed, and your tab should restart on its own.
Let it boot, and welcome back to stock Tmobile
uploads are taking a bit, be patient.
Do you want stock 2.2, or 2.3?

yes -- it goes into download mode
sounds promising -- thank you -- i will keep you updated on the progress.
prefer 2.2 where it was.
thanks so much

REMOVED!!!!!
here is dropbox of everything you need. It is a stock firmware, no root.
once we get you back up and running, we will go from there.
please let me know the moment you have downloaded this zip, as it sucks my bandwidth.

beautiful --- just flashed with odin and went through with no problems. once back up i re-ran the root and unlock. now i'm gonna wait to flash cwr until i'm good and sure i know what i'm doing. btw -- i flashed a new kernel with recovery before the full restore and that didn't help. i'm not positive but i guess thats how you get clockwork rec to work.?
thanks so much.

can someone help me with the same issue. I am getting no boot on this tablet. I have tried the volume button and power with no luck. Can someone send me a link for the stock sprint restore.

Which did you go with? 2.2 or 2.3.3?
Let me know what your tab currently says in settings, about device.
Hold down the back arrow, and while still holding a second later, press you powerbutton. Let go.
Shoulda taken a screen shot. Uoload it here or just write it down.
I can guide you from there.

Rocket Rom v3 bootloops

Hi,
Coming from v2, I've downloaded the new ICS Rocket Rom v3 and followed the instructions. However, i'm experiencing bootloop now. Could i flash with Odin? Are there specific steps i should take?

No idea but FYI thats a unsafe kernel Hope you read the OPs instructions or your likely to end up with a brick.

^^ Copy that. Be very careful now. I guess you should first revert to GB if your recovery is opening and you have all the pre requisites. Once upon a time , when I used to be in the Touchwiz craze I faced something like this while installing RocketROM. I reverted back to GB n went ahead again. and it worked fine. But refer to your OP that what he has to say about it. GB revert is the last option which you can safely end up with.

I couldnt check with OP since i cannot post in his thread.
Anyhow, the phone boot loops and i cant get into CWM recovery by press Vol Down, Home and Power - that would bring me to download mode. However, i don't know the exact steps to take from there and need some advice to prevent being a bricked note statistics.

If you can get into download mode, then I suppose the safest way is to flash through PC Odin any of the already-rooted or directly-rootable ROMs in dr Ketan's post.
GO HERE
That's what I'd do, but do hold on for a second opinion.

Maybe i read your post wrong but from what i gather you say you cant get into CWM by pressing vol down home key and power button? if i read that right then the reason you cant get into it and its bringing you to download mode is because CWR is, Vol up Home key and power button,
Vol up= CWM
Vol down= Download

So, I've managed to restore my phone to Rocket V2. But, there are problems which still exists. Firstly, i couldnt install (or rather, it installed, but wasn't shown) the RR2 theme. Further, i read in the thread that some people had luck with Abyss 3.9 or lower, but after flashing 4.2 and V2, it is impossible for me to install 3.9.
Is there some writing problem that i'm seeing?

Check if you still have full root. Try to paste a file into the system folder.

Nope, tried to create a folder using Root Browser but wouldnt allow me to do so. I selected SSU and states the SUBinary unable to update. I, however, am able to restore apps from TB

Phone always boots in recovery

I was trying to restore my phone to previous state using Rom Manager. Phone restarted in recovery mode, formatted the boot partition and failed to restore. I applied existing of CWM ROM update.zip and snce then my phone restarts in Recovery mode everytime.
I tried one click restore using ODIN, Heimdall nothing worked. recreated the partitions wiped everything, loaded stock ROM but still the phone boots up in recovery mode.
Please suggest some pointers on how to troubleshoot this problem.

do you mean the one click for installing stock rom or something else?

I had the same problem a few days ago couldn't figure it Out. searched and searched for the right image
Files for my Nexsus S. I ended up wiping everything and flashed all the image files with TRWP cause CWR wouldn't work
for the stock ICS and and it worked fine. Now I'm running the 4.1.1 jellybean it sweet.Hope this helps.

Hmmm... i've heard of cases where the power button on the captivate refuses to be 'unpressed' which makes it boots up just by plugging in the battery,
Maybe it's like that with your volume buttons?
Does it feels a little bit weird like it doesn't click when you press it?

Thats a good point...
The buttons seem to be normal. I tried keytest and the results look fine
Volume Up : 115
Volume Down : 114
Power : 116
Menu : 139
Home : 102
Search : 217
Back : 158
Moreover I can access recovery and flash any ROM that I have on SDCard. Funny part whenever I flash a new ROM I see a new recovery
Do you know of anyway use ADB without booting phone and putting it in debugging mode?
Thanks for your inputs.

Update: Issue is resolved
I'm not sure on exactly what worked. Using System Corps Recovery, I changed all the partitions to ext4. Made some random changes to toggles during boot. Restarted in download mode and flashed a one click stock rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
it booted in recovery, then clicked on Flash Bootloader in one click and restarted the phone in download mode and flashed it again with the same ROM.
Thats it. I feel that Bootloader did the trick, but I had it flashed earlier as well.
Thanks irfarf & Sammyazel for your inputs on this.

congrats!!
i do also think that it was the boot loader is the problem here
i had a few problem with my friends cappy won't go into download mode and whenever it boots up, it shows a bunch of random colors than a boot image. turns out that the last bootloader flash wasn't done correctly or something.

Confirmed - the problem is with the bootloader. Once I flashed an original firmware from Samsung, I was then able to install CWM and any ROM I wish after that. Not sure what caused the problem, but this was the solution in my case. Thanks to everyone who pointed me in the right direction!!!

Try running the keytest from recovery mode to ensure all the keys are working fine.
In my case it was corrupt bootloader that caused this issue. you can try flashing stock ROM with bootloaders to fix it.
All the best!

What exactly did you do to get to this point?
You can find Odin KK4 with bootloaders here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
You will need to flash corn kernel with Odin 1.85 afterwards if you wanna flash a custom ROM.

[Q] Stuck in boot loop

Hey everyone. I looked around the forums for a situation similar to mine, and didn't find a case exactly the same as mine, though it's possible I missed something. Basically, my little sister said her captivate was randomly shutting down lately, so I decided to root it for her. I rooted my own HTC Inspire this summer with no problems, so I figured I should be able to do it. The root went just fine, but when I tried to get into 3 button recovery mode, it wasn't working. I had read some stuff (obviously not well enough) and read somewhere to install the speedmod kernel. Now I'm stuck in a boot loop and can't get off of the Galaxy S/SGH-I897/SAMSUNG screen. I tried to go into download mode, but now I can't get into that mode either. Any ideas? I read on the forums about making a JIG, and I might have to end up doing that, but if I can avoid it, I'd like to. Thanks in advance.

Depending on what stock rom u were on before that flash of the speedmod kernel, it may not boot ur phone, because i believe it was froyo based. And if u got it from TRusselo's Guide thread it was there just so u could use it to reboot into cwm recovery and flash a dev rom. Have u tried holding both volume up and down & power buttons together until u see the at&t screen and then releasing the buttons ?? That should boot u into cwm. And from there u can flash a dev rom.
Download mode is--phone off, hold volume down, insert micro usb end of cable into phone, having already opened Odin or Heimdall and usb end of cable already connected to pc. Or of course, jig will do the trick for ya.
U could also try flashin an appropriate kernel for ur firmware u r on --- stock or dev'd. But u will need to still get into download or recovery for that. But i would think u should be able to boot up with no probs with a correct kernel.

I did manage to get it into download mode. I had the usb cord already connected to the phone when I was holding Volume-, so that was the problem with that. Buuuut, I can't get into CWM at all. Holding Volume+ and Volume- plus the power button loads it directly into the Samsung logo screen, then reboots the phone. Maybe I need to reinstall CWM?

I already went ahead and did that, and it's loading back to the regular start screen. Now I'm just trying to get CM10 on there for her, but according to their installation instructions, I need to be able to get into CWM recovery using the 3 button combo, which is where I'm currently stuck. According to one guide I'm reading right now, installing the corn kernel should fix the problem.

Yeah, still can't get into recovery. I turn off the phone, hold both volume buttons and the power button, but then it just stays at and keeps reloading the samsung loading screen (which now says i9000 instead of sgh-i897 like it did before). If I let go of the power button while on this screen, it progresses through the 3G/ATT screen and finally turns on the phone. Not sure what I need to do now. More research apparently.

Which KK4 did you flash? With the I897 bootloaders or I9000? And did you flash Corn kernel?
Getting in recovery can be tricky with the button combo. you could use ROM manager to get in recovery if you did flash Corn.

Well, I assumed it was the I897 one since the guide I had been using was for that version of the captivate, but I'm going to redownload one so I can be sure. The model number under phone info says "SAMSUNG-SGH-I897" and the kernel version is the "Cornv706" version.
Also, couldn't get into recovery with ROM manager either; it just got stuck at the Samsung screen.
