So I've got a P1000, I just bought off ebay. It was working perfect but running 2.2 FroYo. I made a few phone calls and used the network to confirm it was all good and the downloaded a 2.3.5 Stock rom.
I put it in download mode, and reflashed the PDA / PIT using Odin 1.7. After that, it stopped booting. I downloaded a 2.3.4 rom, and had the same issue! The firmware installs, it reboots, gives the yellow text, reboots again, and the Samsung Logo.
So someone in a forum said try the ROTO JMEv4. I found a working version of that and the device is back at 2.2, BUT now it reboots constantly. Tried everything (restore factory, wipe cache) on that, but it just reboots ALL the time.
Heres what I'd LOVE:
Android 2.3.3 or higher, stock form. Rooted.
Phone call ability must be present. (So EuroROM?)
ANY help would be great. My sincere thanks in advance!
Nevermind! 4 roms later, I found a stock 2.3.3 that works....so far

Hello
I had a Galaxy S with stock 2.2 firmware, after flashing it for the first time with DarkyRom 10.2 it was working perfecly, but I needed a different rom, so I downloaded one, but by accident I re-flashed DarkyRom RE with Odin (just had PDA (no Phone or pit) in and without having ticked Re-partiton ) but the phone still worked well, but after that I tried flashing a stock 2.3.3 rom (while still with lagfix on )
Odin took a long time at doing nothing after I clocked start, so I disconnected the phone, and removed the battery and tried turning it on again.
Now it wont turn on and I can't get into download mode.
Can anyone please help me?

i flashed darky rom 1.3 on my phone, ive been having some problems id get a lot of force closes and i wouldnt be able to call out when i do it would end the call after the first dial, id get no signal, id then get a force close, then signal would come back. so i went into cwm recovery. performed a full data wipe and tried to flash any other rom - rocket rom v12 and cassie xtra lite v5. on every type of rom i try even the kl7 stock deodexed, it just stays stuck on the samsung glaxy note gt n7000 screen and stays like that. for instance its been like that for the past 40 mins now at the side of me. i dont really know what to do, ive tried multiple data wipes inc dalveks cache. would flashing via odin help ? how do i do that. wondered if i could get some help guys.
Your phone is not bricked. Just entered a boot loop.
You just need to reflash an official firmware from Samsung, then you can flash a custom one over that. Be careful that zergrush or appropriate exploit is avaliable for the version of firmware that you will flash, you don't want to increase the binary counter
To enter download mode:
"Put your Galaxy Note in download mode. To accomplish this, power off your Galaxy Note and then power it back on while holding volume down and home button together with power key".
thanks for the reply, im a little rusty to flashing stock roms with odin i dont really know what to do, i have odin opened with all the necessary things checked, ive downloaded this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412959 stock kl7 but i just get a md5 tar file, how do i get the pda etc, that is ODIN way of doing it am i correct ?
am i right in thinking i can just resent the binary counter with a jiig sometime down the line ?
darkyrom

aaaaaaits this rom bud, my note doesnt like it, try sheep rom, ive found that the best one out of all of them.
Dear all,
Hope this is the right location and if not please move... thanks!
A brief history on my problem: I had a Canadian Bell ( SGS Vibrant ) I9000M and recently rooted and unlocked for an oversea trip. It was on the stock Gingerbread from Bell and everything works fine and after I'm back in the middle of the day the phone starts rebooting to the 'S' animation ( bootloop? ). Then, I tried to reflash it with other stock roms but no luck.
Then, during one flash my USB port failed on me and bricked. I decided to flash with primary and secondary bootloader and the phone no longer to display anything after power on.
After following AdamOutler's thread on the hardware unbrickable mod now can go back to Download Mode. I was so glad to see things back so I immediately flash it with Heimdall one-click ( with XXJVT rom ). However, everything went smooth, except when everything ( incl primary and secondary bootloaders ) are loaded it still doesn't turn on. I tried many times with same result.
Anyone can shed some light on this? Thanks!!!!!
Hello Guys,
I'm quite an intensive flasher and never had a problem ever, running lovely ICS at the moment and my phone is fine. But here's the problem, a friend of mine also has a SGS and hers suddenly got stuck in a bootloop today (she had stock on it, never did anything to it and had no flashing history or something). So I said, let me try to fix, I should be able to reflash the software and it should be working again. Sadly enough, it didn't go as I hoped.
I flashed JVU trough Odin with Pit file.
(Sadly enough I am not allowed to post pictures, goo.gl/28pPX < pic link)
And as you can see, No problems there. Everything went fine. So the phone boots, and then this happens:
goo.gl/D0vnU
This happens everytime, no matter what i try to flash. First time I have ever seen this and I just don't know what do with it..
When I try to reboot the phone it just starts bootlooping again. I'm clueless, so can anyone help me with this ?
Thanks in advance!

I would just flash the same jvu but with bootloaders

You just have to find a small file called " dbdata.rfs " amd flash it through odin (in pda ) .
Or you can always download a full firmware which have four files .pit, csc, modem, code and flash them with odin and u will be good to go!
Sorry for the late reaction (and the bump of the thread).
I did flash trough odin, like 9001 times. Everytime I would just get into a bootloop, Stock or Custom Rom. I was able to get in CWM but that was just a mess. It had to do with a faulty SD-Card or something, its @ Samsung now. Anyways, thanks for the help everbody!
So basically I have a Samsung Galaxy S Captivate (i896) and it was running 2.1, so I decided to try and upgrade to the newest stock available for the captivate (which is 2.3.5). I had to use heimdall because I bought the phone used and it was rooted and possibly running a custom ROM so kies is not an option. When I put the phone in download mode the computer wouldn't recognize it (I'm on a Mac). I did alot of reading online and I couldn't find a solution. So I decided to flash a new ROM hoping that this would solve the problem.
So I flashed a random ICS ROM. But with this ROM I couldn't even access download mode. I tried a 3 button fix, I tried to use terminal to boot into download mode, and I tried to use ADB from my computer; nothing worked. So I figured I would flash another ROM (this time I used Hellybean) but when I tried to install it, a bunch of code ran on the screen and it said "installation aborted". Before attempting to flash this ROM I completely wiped the phone (i formatted the system from the mounts menu in CWM) and now the phone is showing the at&t logo, then going to black, then some code runs on the screen, then it goes black and starts the whole thing again.
I cant get to recovery or download mode.
Is it bricked? How do I fix this?
I don't know what I did wrong! any help would be appreciated.
P.s. I would really like to avoid building a jig because I feel like Im not too good at that kind of stuff....but if that's what it comes to...
Thanx in advance

I've tried all of those methods except for using a jig. Is it possible that while flashing a ROM my phone somehow lost download mode?
Also if all of those combos didn't work is it likely that a jig will work?
Looks like you started reading after you messed up the phone. Update instructions say clearly that you need GB bootloaders before you proceed to ICS or JB. You provide no information what exactly ROM you started from, what GB ROM you attempted to flash (with or without bootloaders), what exactly ICS you flashed after, what "some code" runs on the screen now, etc. It's a lot of guessing here. If bootloaders are messed up, than you won't be able to fix your phone at home. I have never seen a problem you describe, so wait for someone with more experience to stop by.
I got it going! All it needed was a jig and then I was able to flash stock GB with bootloaders.
Thanks for the help.
Good news! :good:
I have a Cappy and gingerbread boot loaders come in three flavours i897, i896 and i9000 and they're backwards compatible with froyo and éclair roms. Don't mix froyo and gb boot loaders though you will hard brick your device. I have i896(Canadian) boot loaders and when I flash kk4 [email protected] Odin gingerbread my "i896" boot screen is garbled image of pixels until I flash the proper param.lfs file to match. Hope this helps. BTW I have a jig as well and for all galaxy devices it's a must.
