When phone switched off:
Home Button + Power - open recovery
Wipe Data and Cache, reboot

You could try Recovery mode and wipe.

Your might want to try PWR + HOME to get into Recovery Mode screen, then Wipe Data (Factory Reset), when done remove battery, wait 10 sec., then insert battery and boot normally... has worked for me on the orphaned S5830D SGAce w/ DTLKI4 f/w. BUT, be aware, all user settings and installed apps are vaporized !!! Stuff on /SDCARD is safe.
Cheers,

help please

One package? Aren't you supposed to use the one with the 5 different files and not just one? To make a completely clean stock rom install, I mean. If that's what you want.

I think he(or she) want a stock rom only. You need to do a full wipe after flash with odin. Maybe touch recovery helps you, but i cant find any . You can go to download mode by "adb reboot download" , i think it cant success without wipe.
Or maybe try to flash a rom with 5 files as SuperAce609 said.

No. You can't flash 2.3.6 directly.
You need to flash 2.3.3 first , then 2.3.4 and last 2.3.6 using Odin.

no need for that bro !!!!
@OP
just go to recovery > factory reset(wipe data)
and then reboot......Ur done
so simple.....

lol. u guys didnt even try to understand what his problem in the first place. atleast read the first post properly before giving suggestions.
the poor guy had his vol up and down button broke, and u suggest him to wipe data in recovery.
thing is his vol up and downn button doesnt work! so how can he navigate in recovery? lol
btw op, u said that u flashed onepackagee file via odin. so how did u manage to go into download mode in the first place when your vol down button is busted?
if u managed to go into download mode again, this time flash the full package instead.

I am having the same problem.
The phone keeps rebooting on startup. The phone can go in download mode but can't go in recovery mode.
Do you know any good link to download multi file package? I can't seem to find it anywhere

My phone was running 2.2.1 Froyo. I tried to upgrade it to 2.3.6 using process mentioned here. http://androidadvices.com/update-gal...wktm-firmware/
The Odin completed successfully and restarted the phone. But the phone was running spanish language. I was getting an alert after every 3-4 seconds. But i could not read it as it was spanish. I restarted the phone and it went in boot loop. The phone keeps rebooting every 2 seconds.
I can't get into recovery mode but I can get to download mode.
I have tried flashing many ROMs from sammobile.com but none of them is working.

[Q] Flash Custom ROM with Odin?

Hi,
How could i flash Custom ROM with Odin..
Because
1. I am not able to go into recovery mode by holding Volume up+Volume Down+Power Buttons
2. I could not reboot into recovery mode using adb commands (stuck at at&t screen)
3. I could not reboot into recovery by flashing any kernel with CWM.. obviously i have to use volume up+Volume Down+Power Buttons again :-(
I am able to flash stock ROM through ODIN 1 click downloader (currently on I897UCKI2)..and its the only way i could flash a ROM now..
So is there a way to install custom rom through ODIN ?
Please help...

If you can get into download mode (power off, hold V+/V-, insert USB), you can try flashing a ROM via Heimdall. Apex 12.5 has a package you can flash from Heimdall.
You can also try Mosaic 9, as that has an Odin-based installer package.

Hey,
I'm using samsung galaxy star s5282. I rooted this phone 2 days ago. Everything went good until today when i was i my class it suddenly switched off. When i rebooted it, it hang on the samsung logo.
I tried to boot into cwm recovery mode by pressing v+, home, power but it boots into default system recovery mode.
I again flashed cwm recovery many times using odin but it dosent work. Odin shows pass but when i reboot my phone in cwm recovery mode my phone enters in default system recovery mode.
What should i do please please please help.....

Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.
applies to all recoveries

Surenda 1863,
I had exactly the same problem and it took me almost one week of fiiddling and searching the Web to solve it.
The solution was in front me since day ONE : install ODIN on the PC !
In my case, I had I had accidentally wiped out the stock ROM and the tablet was hopelessly frozen on the download mode. I couldn't turn it off to boot it back with any of the usual buttons ( Volume , Home, Power)
I made the wrong assumption that since my PC didn't see the tablet, it couldn't connect to Odin either . I was wrong!
Here is what you have to do:
1. Install Odin on your PC. Connect the tablet to it. You will see that Odin sees the tablet because there will be a caption saying "added" on the top left.
2. Press the AP tab button at the right to go to the location where your Stock ROM is. The stock ROM file will have an MD5 ending.
3 Once the file is loaded (next to the AP button) just press Start. You will see the DOWNLOAD bar gradually filling up on the tablet and at the top left of ODIN.
4. When the operation is terminated, you will see a caption " PASSED" at the top left of he Odin screen and the tablet will automatically boot up to the HOME screen.
As simple as this! I didn't even have to worry about flashing the TWRP ( or CWR) recovery system, probably because the OS ROM was already wiped out. May be your case is different. I only know that in my case it worked like a charm.

[Q] CWM Bootloop

Hi guys,
a friend of mine has a huge problem with his rooted P970 (android 2.3): after installing an update, the system only boots into ClockworkMod, rebooting from there only goes into the CWM Recovery again. Holding VOL-UP when the phone is connected to the computer and even holding HOME+VOL-DOWN will boot the CWM. VOL-UP within CWM doesn't work as well. Factory Reset and installing a ROM from CWM doesn't make a difference either.
So we tried to install a firmeware via SmartFlash (V20N). But the problem is that the COM-port only appears for few seconds until the CMW is completely booted, than it vanishes again. So we really have now idea what to do next.
Thanks for your help!

You need to pull out the battery, insert it again, DONT POWER ON THE PHONE! Now hold VOL+ Button, then plug in the USB cable and you should see the software update screen, then use smartflash. OR in CWM, wipe data, cache, in advanced wipe dalvik, try to install a custom ROM like boype's CM7 kang, have fun

i9001 Always boots to CWM Recovery.

Can someone please help me? I installed CWM recovery 5.5 and now my phone always enters in it after powering up. Some kind of loop.I restart the phone...enters CMW...on and on.
I found a tutorial but it's for Asus transformer prime,and my phone won't cold boot. I tried Volume down + power,and i didn't find any tutorial how to cold boot i9001.
Can i fix the cwm loop? Can i go back to my old recovery ,the stock one?

Your Bootloader is messed up.
1. Goto Downloadmode
2. Extract AriesVE.ops from Ariesve.zip and Insert AriesVE.ops @OPS in Odin
3. extract boot_loader.tar from bootloader.zip and insert boot_loader.tar in Odin @BOOT
4. Flash
Reboot and it should boot to Android

First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....
Try a solution from My Android Solutions
(Do remember to backup your contacts, data, images etc and also your EFS folder before flashing a ROM and make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.)

Dear friend,
I have the same problem as the Author. I installed CMW v5.5.0.4 so I flash cyanogen ICS.
Anyway, I entered Downloadmode, I connected to Odin and did as you said.
As a result, when the phone is shut down
a. When I press the power button, "Samsung" logo appears, and then black screen forever. Then I remove battery.
b. When I press Vol Up + Power button, it enters CMW (but when I select "Reboot now" it goes samsung-blackscreen like"a"
c. When I press Vol down+power+home key, it goes to downolad mode (I did a 2nd time what you suggested, but Nothing improved).
Please help, I am desperate.

I've put the cwn 6.0 and the problem is gone now, no loop,...works fine, ..i've tried some games/apps, and it seams that not all of them are working ,..but it's ok , the root and the ICS will do

i9001 bootloop
this is the only thing it worked for me:
Put this file on sdcard
Load it via recovery with "install from sdcard"
it will automatically reboot the phone
once solved, copy to sdcard and restore attached stock recovery.img or don't reboot into recovery again, as it will bootloop again:
from within phone, start terminal emulator and type:
su <enter>
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 <enter>
of course, needs root
---
i installed supposed "stable" twrp 2.2.1 and it produced bootloop into recovery
don´t know if last twrp 2.4.1.0 or cmw 6.0.3.7 for stock roms will solve it but i won't try, i restored stock recovery.img from a backup i made with "online nandroid backup"
bootloop is veeeeeeery common in i9001, the fix above that worked for me erases (fills with zeros) param partition mmcblk0p14, a partition for temporary commands that non-stock recoveries don't erase before rebooting and cause bootloops

AMAZING!!! You are a lifesaver. :highfive:
I had bricked my Galaxy S Plus after flashing TWRP which caused a recovery bootloop. I tried using download mode to reflash bootloader using Odin but my PC said "USB device not recognized". I tried tons of drivers, factory resets/system format(which was a bad decision), different cables and even PCs but I couldn't get my device recognized at all. I thought the phone was a paperweight now but I finally found your post and successfully booted my phone to unofficial CM12 without any problems!
Thanks a lot once again!! :laugh::good:

haha
perfect it worked for you! another smartphone saved!!
nice my explanation helped you!

after flashing stock rom using odin when device restarts remove usb jig and press home and volume plus to go to recovery mode.. then clear cache and dalvik cache .. tis should solve ur problem. tricky part is after completion of odin flash u have to quickly go to recovery using volume and home button once the flash is complete so that when device restarts u can go to recovery direct.
