Badly stuck in bootloop

Okay,
So i have searched, I was on 2.3.3 custom rom, and then i went on to flash Onecosmic's ICS Port Android 4.0.3 RC1, i flashed the kernel first and then from then on i cant go past flash screen. I tried flashing official firmware from here "I9000DXJV9_OLBJV9_DXJV9" but it wont go past flash screen. any help??? Can somebody link me to full official rom with bootloader and everything.??
register at sammobiles.com and find your firmware there, then flash it through ODIN. Then flash your KERNEL then any custom rom. If you find bootloop, you will need to flash a voodoo kernel this gives you other options in CWM to enable you to disable ALL lags. Then you should be fine. You can reflash any other kernel once your all done.

Ok i will try find out a vooddoo kernel, but if you please can link me to it, it will be very easier
Ok i flashed the voodoo kernel and from CWM i disabled the lagfix. And then again i i got the same error, "failed to mount /dbdata" after flashing through odin. And again back to bootloop.
What do i do.
Thankfully i can get into recovery menu. And i tried restoring nand backup but i got an error flashing boot image.
What's the next step
Try this. Remove BOTH external sd card and sim card. Boot to recovery, goto mounts/storage and format sdcard, back to recovery head menu, factory reset/wipe, format cache/format dalvik cache then remove battery, boot to doenload and flash rom agin with odin
Oh, and dont forget to disable ALL lagfixes BEFORE odin flash.
i had the same problem yesterday, what i did is i flashed through odin some 2.2 froyo (3 files) with repartition and the problem was solved; the rom was pre rooted JP3 ; hope it helps you

[Q] HELP! I've a bricked i9001

Hi guys.
Im new with rooting and flashing so here is my story:
I rooted my phone, then i dit go to recovery mode. But without clockworkmod. Then I clicked update. And selected the .zip rom file. After installation, it did boot, then shut off, then boot, then shutoff endless. So I thought maybe I should install feamod now. So I did that via odin (I could go into download mode) And then I cant get to recovery mode anymore, now it is download mode, shut off, download mode, shut off. And than I thought maybe install a custom rom. So did I: Android 2.3.6, and when installed via odin: download mode, shut off. AGAIN!!!! WHAT CAN I DO PLS?!?!?
Kind regards, nikosb10
First calm down ! Then get into download mode dowload a firmware for your phone from samfirmware.com and flash it as onepackage file via odin. After it booted again make a factory reset and wipe dalvik cache, cache and wipe all data everything should be fine again.
one way to solve your problem is to flash a stock kernel but u will loose ur all data(if u dont have a backup)then root ur device and do ur thing

You have to flash a stock firmware (custom firmware as a odin package does the same), if Odin doesn't work correct for you, you should visit this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Plus/GT-I9001

Help me please

I tried to flash a stock rom but it was on bootloop.
So i went to odin on my pc and selected stock rom for PDA and clicked on start.
Now when i turn my phone on it says:
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again
Retry the odin flashing of the same stock rom. Next time if you get bootloops then go to recovery and just clear the cache and then reboot.
Make sure your downloaded zip is not corrupted.

Soft-bricked when trying to flash stock ROM, re-flashing does nothing

Hello, I wanted to install the new android update from AT&T however I couldn't since my phone was rooted. I attempted to unroot by flashing a stock ROM via Odin 3.10 the flash was successful but now it won't boot past the samsung logo. The screen goes black and the blue LED stays lit at the top.
I am able to get into download mode and recovery mode. I've tried wiping cache and factory reset. I've tried re-flashing and it still gets stuck. I'm wondering if there's any way I can just flash a custom android 5.0 rom since it doesn't seem to want to go back to stock. I've read a few guides but they all require safestrap and I can't put that on my phone.
I flash the AP, CSC, and CP with no BL and it still won't work.
Flashed the downgrade to NCE, worked perfectly.

Cannot instal STOCK ROM after instlling CM12/13

Hi!
I have installed TWRP and CM13 on my S5 mini (G800F), but i got many bugs and restarts, so i decided to go back to Stock ROM, unfortunatelly i cannot do this.
When i open Odin and try to install STOCK Rom from samsungmobile everything is good, till the and, when i got:
Write finished (filed)
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
I tried on laptop and deskop using various USB port but everytime i get the same message.
And when i get the battery out and power on i get:
"firmware upgrade enountered an issue. Please select recoery mode in Kies and try again"
I tried to connet it with Kies in recovery odin mode but Kies does not recogenize it.
Then i need my phone so i decided to move back to CM this time i have installed the CM12, after using it, one day and having many restarst i tried one more to move to STOCK ROM. I downloaded the older verios of STOCK ROM then i had before. But i got the same messege.
Then someone tell mi to make full wipe, so using TWRP i done the full wipe, cache, data, system and internal storage/sd.
After wipeing internal storage i get only:
"firmware upgrade enountered an issue. Please select recoery mode in Kies and try again"
and cannot even install recovery via Odin any more, beacouse i get bugs ;/ ;/ ;/
as a result i cannot even use my phone with CM12/13.
1. Do You have any tips or solution of this problem?
2. How can I instal STOCK ROM or even CM?
3. Can I install the CM via Odin?
4. Do You have any other recovery for S5 mini G800F?
He there, sorry to hear you're having troubles with the phone. I experienced a similar problem and found that this worked:
Try and flash your stock firmware, when it fails, take out battery, put it back in and restart into recovery mode (stock recovery). From there, do a factory reset and wipe (not using Team Win Recovery Project, using the stock Recovery).
Now go back to odin and try flashing again.
Hope this helps...it worked for me.
Do this when error occurs after flashing stock firmware!
1. Flash stock firmware
2. Get error message
3. Remove battery and start in Recovery Mode
4. Flash hidden.img that you can extract of the stock file!
Quote from reddit.com:
If you've tried to flash firmware off of Sammobile, and had your heart stop when the flash fails, fear no longer.
To fix the soft brick:
Open the firmware file in winrar and extract the hidden.img. Rename it as hidden.img.tar.
Load the new file into the PDA tab, and flash.
When the phone boots, the displayed image will be touchwiz teal, there will be a little android and GALAXY spelt above it. Don't freak out.
Give it a minute and it should boot.
Hi, jest i did happend after flashing a stock firmware, but fortunatelly now it work.
How do i manage to fix it? I do not know. I just tried to flash it with a stock firmware one more time, and than tried to flash TWRP recovery via Odin. It get a fail. But the phone got power on, and it works till now !!!!
What was the problem? I have read that if you have the other CSC than XEO and want to flash the ROM with XEO CSC on S5 mini this problem occurs on many phone. Espesially on that from UK, so mine was.
thanks!!
