Flash Stock rom again using Odin on PC...its actually not a brick..no need to worry

about unbrick
I saw those errors, you mini couldn't mount the system and the cache because the CM7 setup doesn't started to root your phone, and your phone wasn't be able to boot because of formatting your system(when you flash a new ROM your system is automatically formated). That was the explanation if you wanted to know, and don't worry, your phone didn't get bricked. I hard bricked my phone when accidentaly i selected a wrong cwm recovery from CWM manager.
To solve your program flash a stock rom or a custom if you want.

Galaxy mini UNBRICK
Hi,
I tried to make Flash ROM storage again using Odin on PC, but the program remains stuck at home after verification system, and the phone does not run anything (photo).
Can find another solution ....
If the software does not start, it still have warranty?: Confuz:

Dude first install CWM recovery and then flash any custom rom

Help Please

Hi, sorry if i'm not posting in the correct section it's just that i can't find a section for the galaxy ace gt-5839i so this was the closest thing. The other day i rooted the gt-5839i and then decided i would be an idiot and atempted to install cwm4 and now the phone is stuck on the screen that displays the model number. I can boot into recovery but doing a data reset/wipe or wiping the cache or trying to install a new rom is not working at all, all it says is E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument) so i'm guessing i probably need to reflash an appropriate stock recovery (2.3.6) to fix this it's just that i can't find one and don't know which i should try if anyone could help me out on this one i would be extremely greatful as at the moment the phone useless, thanks.

first, download your stock firmware from samfirmware.com
then download odin, and learn how to use that

Rooting 2.3.6 failed
I have the same problem too. Tried upd_1, AceGingerRoot, ROOT-S5830C-i-M, update_su, SuperOneClick 2.3.3. and no way to root my Phone.
I'm thinking about return to 2.3.5...

Are you trying to root through stock recovery? If not, try stock recovery

Solved!!
I have re-flashed DDKQ rom again and first thing I did 'root' and it was successfully

Phone got bricked, download mode works

I got my phone bricked! Recovery does not work. All i can see is GT-7000 with triangle samsung logo. Can't even see samsung glowing logo.But download mode is working. What should i do now to not get my phone bricked totally?
Bricked when i flashed new rom. I did full wipe/cache/dalvik cache. Problem was not there. Something with recovery itself. When i flashed previous rom recovery changed from PhilZ-cwm6 to CMW 5.5 and i tried flashing rom with it. Why recovery changed with new rom install?!??

Odin. Back to GB and start again. If you get stuck at factory fs you may want to try the revive method posted in general.

Ok first,you need recovery back. I assume you know how to use PC Odin? You do? good:good:
You need to download a stock ICS kernel. Get one (any will do) in Tar format from Dr. Ketan here.
Now download one of Philz Temp recovery's from here (again any will do.)
You need to get Philz temp recovery onto external SD card and put it back into your Note. (Old phone?, Camera?, Card reader?....)
Done that? Excellent!
OK, now flash stock ICS Tar file in PC odin. (put it in PDA box).
Reboot into recovery, "apply update from external storage" and select the temp Philz recovery.
The recovery will now miraculously change to Philz 6.0.1.4
Now select "restore" and choose the file that you backed up on Philz before.
When the operation completes, reboot phone. You will be back on ROM from when you did original Philz backup.:good:

Ok. Flashed kernel. Pass! I got into recovery and there is lot of error. They says
E:failed to mount /cache (invalid argument)
E:can't mount /cache/recovery/log
....
...
about 12 of these
Is it safe to flash recovery or i should do something more?
And other thing is https://www.dropbox.com/s/qkx2z5auzxg8k0j/20121103_113422.jpg
I shutters. Is this ok? I now just flashed N7000XXLPYkernel. Recovery works.

Try flashing the temp recovery and see what happens (its safe)
You may have corrupted partitions, We can address that if temp recovery boots.

Theoretically factory reset wont brick, even on stock recovery. But don't do that just yet, time for a different approach, just wait, back soon...

OK now go here and download Samsung_Wipe_Data_System_Cache_2.0-signed.zip get it onto external SD card and flash from stock recovery. If it works, try flashing temp recovery again.

So it will be only ok if i flash any 2.3.5?
For ex. N7000XXKJ4 ------ 2.3.5 2011 october-------- N7000OXAKJ4 ------------------Germany (Debitel)-------------------
Or can i flash 4.0.4. Wich is safer?

Yes, quite right, but I was trying to see where the problem is. And it looks like Data partition is bricked. I feel doing GB through Odin will just get stuck (classic superbrick symptom).
Lets see how he goes....

just flash any 2.3.5 or 2.3.6
from the thread you following. and let us know if it passes in odin

4.0.4 Safer? Hell no... Ics stock kernel its the hell.. It has the mmc_cap_erase bug and you don't want to be there..
Go for gb and if everything goes good, then flash any aosp rom or the new JB leaked its beautiful... And safe

[Q] Unable to install CM - installation aborted

I was trying to install CM11. Tried installing the zip from external memory and from an SD. Tried four different versions of CM but here's the message I always get:
This package is for "m3, m3xx, i9305, GT-I9305" devices:
this is a "m0"
E: Error in /sdcard/cm-11-20140117-NIGHTLY-i9305.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
Could it be that Samsung Knox has something to do with this error? Root gone wrong? I am unable to check the root status since Knox is closing superSU.
I would appreciate all the help I can get.

Maybe you got the wrong (outdated) Recovery. Try to flash latest Recovery (cwm vor TWRP) and that should work! :thumbup:

Have you tried using Philz?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/orig-development/i93xx-philz-touch-t2002953
Make sure you click the i9305 button and check the file name before flashing it otherwise you will hardbrick your phone.

Use Phil recovery or CWM, twrp has been giving me problems since 2.6.0.0. I am currently using cwm touch, besides a few freezes (which was fixed by pulling the battery) I didnt get any errors or problems with it
