[Q] Cannot boot or enter recovery (CM9 20120425) - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Flashed today's CM9 nightly as usual through CWM recovery (ultimate-kernel-cleaning-script, ROM, GApps), came to the point of rebooting and am now stuck with the white-on-black Galaxy S GT-I9000, SAMSUNG screen.
I can't get into recovery, but I can get into download mode.
Where should I go from here?

Same here
I am in the exact same situation. I really didn't want my first post on here to be a beg for help but I promise I'll contribute after
My computer can detect the device when I plug it in but I can't access it from explorer. I am running good old XP. I have done a bit of googling and it looks like I need Odin so I've got that. How are you doing with it PrinterElf? I'll keep this thread updated with my progress, hopefully it might help you too.

Could be a doozie this one...
I've asked the question on the CM forums too, so I'll see what happens!
I think you, like me, can get it to boot to download, I can get Heimdall to connect, but have no idea what I should be flashing to get back to recovery again!

From http://ics.samsung-updates.com/trouble, should also work for CM9:
"Put phone in Download mode and use FixRecovery.tar.md5 in Odin as PDA, uncheck auto-reboot option.
After flash reboot to recovery with 3-button-combo and CWM flash proper ICS kernel and reboot"
http://ics.samsung-updates.com/trouble/FixRecovery.tar.md5

Heimdall eh?
I rooted my phone using SuperOneClick and have been flashing new ROMs using ROM Manager so this is the first time I've heard of Heimdall. I'm downloading it now.
I'll let you know if I find those files, I can't find a useful thread anywhere
Edit: Didn't see adsdf's post when posting this. Thanks for pointing us in the right direction

Followed adsdf's instructions and Odin seemed to think it had done the job. Tried booting into recovery but it's still 'eating a big bowl of boot-loops' I'm not sure if Windows is talking to the phone though so I'm downloading the drivers now (give me a virtual slap if I should have done this already).

She's in recovery! Thank you so much adsdf!

Nearly there...
Okay, she'll boot into recovery but I don't have a ROM or any backups on her. I can't seem to be able to browse the phone in Windows Explorer even if I hit mount USB storage in recovery. I've managed to transfer 'fixrecovery.tar.md5' from Odin so I should be able to flash a ROM in the same way... right? Everywhere I search all I can find is ROMs in zips I've seen threads where people have flashed ROMs in .md5 format using Odin, where are they getting these ROMs? It seems like the solution for me.

I think in your case it would be best to go back to a stock rom first so you have a clean base to start from.
- Download any rom from
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9000&r=1#regiona
for example I9000XXJVU. these are all odin flashable
- In Odin: "CODE..." or "PDA..." as PDA, "PHONE..." or "MODEM..." as PHONE and "...CSC..." as CSC with PIT 512 with repartition checked
(Im sure you have done this before, right? if not, theres a lot of instructions on that out there)
- after that phone should boot
- flash a proper kernel and rom if you want

Right, back and firing on most cylinders, and this is how I did it!
Download and flash this with Odin
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/xxjvu/
Reboot into download mode again, flash this with Odin
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/root-xxjvu-firmware/
Reboot into CWM recovery
Install CM9 nightly & GApps
Reboot
Spend all morning restoring apps from Titanium Backup!

Thank you
Just followed PrinterElf's method and have just rooted my phone again using Odin. I'm about to flash the latest CM9 nightly, I wish I could take the screen unlock with me, it works well on that stock ROM.
Thanks again

You're left with only one option: Odin. Download any stock rom with a stock bootloader to repair your recovery mode,flash it using Odin, then flash a semaphore or midnight control kernel.
Good luck!

kinda same problem
previously was on teamhacksung b17 with gapps 20120304. no MODIFICATIONS!!!
today i updated with the latest nightly (update-cm-9-20120427-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd-signed) with same gapps as above.
after reboot it did some updating gapps and loaded into home screen.
i turned the phone off becoz i wanted to insert the extSD and simcard which i removed before the update process.
second time i booted the phone, it started giving me bootloops. cant go into recovery either. only download mode available.
so i opened odin and put all the files in their places connected the phone in download mode on. windows did not recognize the device..... installed samsung usb drivers v1.4.2.2 ... tried it again. problem has not yet been resolved, any suggestions veteran people.

[Q] Please Help me! Flash fail...

Please help me!
I have "speedmod-kernel-i897-k13e-500hz" Kernel on my phone and it comes with CWM. I download the MIUI Captivate ROM from here
When i flashed it from SpeedMod Recovery then I said some code, booted then showed some code from the kernel, then booted. It repeated this... Scared, I pulled the battery.
Using Odin3v1.85 i Put a stock kernel on my captivate.
When i boot it, it shows the "AT&T World Phone" Boot screen, and It stays like that for DAYS!!! (Trust me, I know from experience)
I tried recovering an earlier backup but it says
Code:
.android_secure.img not found. Skipping restore of /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure
I have no idea if the above affects anything but any help is Greatly Appreaceted.
I use Win7 MacOSX Lion and Ubuntu 11.10 so if there is any help at all then tell it to me!
By the way, I can get into Download Mode and Recovery Mode but cannot get into USB Debugging Mode because i cant get into the OS.
Thanks in advance!
Anthony
In the development forum there is a sticky of stock roms, find the one that flashes KH3 with bootloaders, boogs kernel, and use it, it is a Odin program that does everything, bootloaders, repartitioning, and fresh install of gingerbread KH3. It also flashes a custom kernel which will give u CWM so u can reinstall MIUI.
Remember, don't pull ur battery next time

Here's a link for the Odin 1 click:
http://www.mediafire.com/?05nemq5yyn5fuqf
Also, if you decide to flash miui again, that screen of code you saw is normal. Just reboot to cwm when you see that and flash the miui ROM file again.
Hmm...
I will see if the first reply works.

[Q] HELP! bircked note

hello everyone
my friend bricked his note and i don't know what to do for him, my friend has no exper experience, he did a restore on a nonsafe kernel
his phone is semi bricked (if not fully bricked), i tried using odin to flash a stock rom (gb then ics) but had no luck and proccess stops at "NAND write start", i tried only to flash a kernel which was abyssnote but also got stuck on "NAND write start" and i tried to use the pit file from this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667886) with a stock rom and with re-partition checked on odin and now it is stuck on:
<ID:0/005> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/005> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
please help me as the phone has been stuck on this state (pit file way) for over 80 minutes
waiting for your answer...
i unpluged my phone now and i am trying a custom pit file (N7000_16GB_Q1_20110914--patched--brick-between-281-and-3770-MB--FACTORYFS-moved-by-3328-MiB.pit) after leaving my phone for up to 2 hours and with no progress using N7000_16GB_Q1_20110914-stock.pit
file, hope i can revive my friend phone and please try to point me for any solution i can try.
Check your connection. Usually if bricked the process will start ok but halt at factory.fs. Try with a different usb cable, make sure it's in a mobo usb port not front one.
Pit files should be a last resort. I don't think it's bricked personally. Does it power on at all?

What is the outcome of flashing the "N7000_16GB_Q1_20110914--patched--brick-between-281-and-3770-MB--FACTORYFS-moved-by-3328-MiB.pit" as you mentioned above?
If you can also get into recovery, then better try to use hg42 partition scanner first, to see if and where the damage is in the emmc.

If that long, then that pit doesn't seem to work.
I would try to flash a custom kernel such as hydracore or some other kernel that are available in .tar format. Then see if it help the phone get into recovery.
If that does not work, then just need to try other pit file from hg42 thread which move factoryfs by bigger number until it work. This is not a good strategy but it seems to be the only way.

This is a gb kernel that can be flashed via odin to see if recovery works.

i got stuck on NAND write start agine, i think its time to try your other strategy, should i go with pit file that has factoryfs moved by the largest number first or the one with the less number?

I would try the first way of flash a kernel since it does not take much time.
Anyway, if want to try second strategy should move up by 500 mb or 1 gb each time.
I saw some people reported problem after flashing a pit with big number them move back to flash a pit with small number so should try to avoid that situattion.
The next pit I would choose it the one move fatoryfs by 4608mib for example.

thank you for your replies, i will try to try them as you mentioned above and by the way and will wait 15-20 minutes in each operation, i already tried the last version of hydracore but had no success, one last thing, if none of them worked (hope not), is there any other possible way to revive from the brick(other than replacing the motherboard or replacing the phone from samsung)?
bricked or not
same problem here, was on stock ics rooted for quite sometime, today decided to flash alliance rom v2.1, booted to cwm recovery, did a full wipe and after that i just hated myself. phone didnt boot into recovery and odin gets stucked at factoryfs, tried to flash with pit file too but no result same stuck in problem. then i flashed different kernel fm note kernel through odin which was a success, got my recovery back but unfortunately the only rom i have on internal sd was alliance rom which doesnt install, either says emmc error alliance rom or stucks at extracting system. so again flashed abyss kernel and did a full wipe again but odin still does not go beyond factory fs and i am trying to flash ics rom again. any idea what i should do now as i can flash a kernel and go into recovery. help will be appreciated. meanwhile downloading gb rom to check as i read in other posts it works tough not sure.

it is good as far as you can access cwm recovery, try to get any external sd, download a rom and put it on the external sd using other phone
and flash it using cwm and dont forget your safe kernel , and can you tell me please what kernel you've used?

Once get recovery it is best to try to scan partition to identify where the damage is. You can you adb method in my manual repartition guide or the scanner from hg42 which is even better.

Should try the kernel I sent and also the fm kernel suggested in the post above. Once having recovery it is much easier and there are more options. Otherwise, custom pit is the last resort before mobo replacement.

Hi there, sounds like a bad flash or bad download. Firstly remove your external micro SD card and connect it to a PC / Laptop (standard SD adaptor or Card Reader). Download a "default" ROM and kernel and KEEP them on the card (you never know when you need to go back to them). I use Abyss 4.2 kernel and Chrack ROM personally. I always have the jBroid Kernel Cleaner saved also). Replace the micro SD card.
If you can get into Recovery, flash the jBroid script cleaner. Now flash Abyss 4.2 kernel (GB safe kernel) and reboot into Recovery again. Now flash Chrack Rom. I've had a number of bad flashes and these 3 zips have always pulled me out a hole.
Hope this helps. Hit Thanks if it did.

i've already mentioned that it has no recovery mode, and yes, i always have abyssnote kernel in my ex-sd also in my friend's phone, the thing is that he don't know about the emmc bug and he did a restore on a none safe kernel and thats how he bricked his phone
what i've done so far is trying the pit file way but had no luck, now the thing is that the binary counter is 5 and i can't go to have a m/b replacement for free as the warranty is voided, is there any way to reset the counter or to hardbrick the phone except for the jig method?

[Q] Stuck on Samsung Logo no Download or Recovery mode

Hey,
i wanted to flash from an unsafe kernel(ZCLP5) to a safe one and got the recent CM10 kernel (Kernel_CM10.1_20130130_Nightly_CWM.zip),
i then went into recovery mode and flashed the zip from sdcard and yeh here i am.
After the samsung logo appears i get a black screen and the software buttons flash once, no way to go into recovery or download mode.
When checking out the logcat with adb and grepping for "error" and "fail" i can see that the device fails to call eglInitialize (EGL_BAD_ALLOC) that, i guess, is initializing the OpenGL ES graphics lib.
So i'm a developer myself but not into android, where do i go from here?
Best greetings and thanks for support in advance.
What Rom did you have before?
I guess CM kernel doesn't work with your Rom (if it's TW).
Did you press the three buttons long enough for getting into recovery or download mode?
Easiest way: If you really do not get into recovery you should download a Stock Rom and install it with PC Odin.

EDIT:
Oh man somehow i get into download mode now, i swear i tried several times.
So you recommend that i flash stock rom now?
Will heimdall also work instead of odin?

download the rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
then you need to put the phone in download mode and connect to PC.. open odin and it should show that the phone is connected by showing a Yellow Box with COM:X
once this is done, place the rom (tar.md5 file) in the PDA tab (if only 1 rom file) and appropriate places if 3 rom files.
the press start.. the phone will start downloading. let it finish and the phone will reboot.. once done.. boot into recovery and choose factory reset. (GB rom is safe to reset using stock recovery)

THE PROBLEM İS NOW NAND writing start!! stuck what to do now please step by step im sooo noob and try to fix something i get moreee problemmm
Go to the above thread and download the pit file from there. Then in odin select the pit file under pit tab. This will auto tick the repartition option. Then select the rom in pda again. Reboot the phone into download mode and try again.

Go to the above thread and download the pit file from there. Then in odin select the pit file under pit tab. This will auto tick the repartition option. Then select the rom in pda again. Reboot the phone into download mode and try again.

What did you do? Repartition?
If that.. Then use a small rom.. Like slimbean or cm roms. You could also try slimwizz. Big roms may not work properly.

because they said so its only way to fix or if i did untick repartition will it still flash i wasnt sure there is no fix for that i dont like custom roms i think stock roms not bad about speed especailly 4.0.4 what if 4.1.2 come up ?
In this case, you could try with the J leaks which are small like slimwizz. Stock ICS roms are huge so may cause trouble. But you could try some stock based custom roms out there.

Help me, my galaxy note N7000 died...(Formware upgrade ancountered an issue.)

Hello everybody.
I have a problem in my gt-N7000.
I tried to install the CM10, install normal.
I installed Gapps also normal.
When I went to wipe it crashed.
Now no more enters recovery mode, download mode only.
When I turn it only gets in this mensage:
"Formware upgrade ancountered an issue. Pease select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I've tried to pass other Stock Roms via Odim, but always hangs Odim.
I do not know what else to do, will my phone still has solution?
And have you tried that recovery mode in Kies?

Hello,
Unfortunately I do not know which kernel was using, but I was the Official Rom 4.0.3.
I'm downloading now the site of the kernel SamMobile'll try and pass via Odin.
If it does not work, post the error here ok?
Ok.. also.. what was your flashing method? which file did you flash first? was your phone rooted?

I do not know if I can answer all your questions ... I did not root the phone.
I tried going through the kernel odin said that he caught up and in factoryms.img, as stated in the attached image.
Do not know if this is of great relevance but I can not give Wipe the recovery mode, it also crashes and resets the phone.
What should I do? = /

1. I don't know what you mean by this.? The was was not rooted or some one else rooted it for you?
2. The place where odin is stuck could indicate a brick. So you need to be precise in the info you give.
3. Did you use cwm.zip to install the rom directly on a non rooted phone?
If ODIN is working for you,
Get your mobile flashed with Philz Kernel by putting the TAR file on PDA.
Enter Philz Kernel in recovery and flash a ROM of your choice.
If you can't then u r a superbrick.

Sorry for my english, I'm using google translation.
I was using the official version 4.0.3, so I entered the reovery and installed CWM and the file to the Root. Shortly thereafter, without restarting the phone installed the CM10 and then the gapps. When I do the Wipe the phone crashed.
Since then, officials have spent several Roms by Odin and all lock.
I do not know if I was very clear on the information, but now the phone is locked it sansumg logo. And when he enters recovery does not wipe, lock and resets the device.
Again, sorry for my english.
So you have flashed cwm.zip and the the root file and then on the same temp recovery, wiped.? That is serious mistake and it seems a brick.

Download the PIT file, open odin and choose the file in PIT tab. Make sure the repartition is checked. Then load the rom in pda tab. Flash the rom again.

[Q] bricked N7000. how to get working again

I tried upgrading my international N7000 to CM10.3 following the instructions in
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_n7000
but now the phone won't even boot into the recovery, all it shows is
Samsung
GALAXY Note
GT-N7000
/ \
/ | \
/--*-\
When i tried flashin from my Mac iusing Heimdall,
the download finished on the mac, but on the N7000
it still showed the blue line etc. I waited a lng time and tried
rebooting, but got the above.
Re-flashing in Heimdall had no effect.
I then tried flashing
hardcore-speedmod-ics-recovery-n7000.tar
using Odin 3.185 from my VMwars Fusion XP install,
and that seemed to finish ok, but no luck either.
I looked for the latest CWM 6.0.4.3 recovery, but I cannot find any
odin-flashable format for it, and of course I cannot use the sdcard
as I cannot even boot into any recovery as is.
Can anyone suggest next steps?

1st things 1st. Why would u use heimdall or odin? And what is your current ROM before trying to flash CM 10.3, was it stock? You should have looked for CWM recovery or Philz safe kernels as base when doing ROM flashing ESPECIALLY custom roms. From what you said, then can you still boot into download mode? I have no knowledge of heimdall so just download Stock Firmware, flash it with odin and see if you can boot your N7000 first.
The worst case scenarios is you are experiencing emmc bug-brick. go to the thread and read carefully to deduce your type of 'brick' and find solutions there. Good Luck.
I was on a stock 4.0.4 (but rooted). I originally tried flashing the cwm from the sd card, but after starting to load it it also just hung,
so I looked for an alternative..
I found a post on stockroms (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997) but the links all point to hotfile.com. which my browser says it cannot find. is hotfile dead? Is there an alternative?

I'm sorry so did u succeed or did you not succeed in installing the custom rom? If your custom rom boots fine then all u need is to search for solving status 7 error thread. My advice to all noobs is to always try n avoid installimg anything except stock rom in odin. Always read and re read before flashing anything that's beyond your knowledge. Basic knowledge of flashing cusroms is :
1. ALWAYS make sure you're on SAFE and COMPATIBLE KERNEL. Most rom threads ALWAYS Include threads/links to a specific recovery/kernel to use. Read n RE READ that.
2. Wipe everything IN RECOVERY mode before flashing a rom.

If you're able to boot up properly n prompted to wipe, then do it. But do it in recovery not on device.
Ok, I downloaded one of the stock kernels for my internatinal N7000, but flashing that with Odin 3.185 hangs about 3/4 through (has now been
sitting there for >60 mins).
Looks like I am screwed?
The file I found is KIES_HOME_N7000XXLT4_N7000OXALT4_1103517_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
I f I wanted to try flashing this with Heimdall, I'd need to know partition numbers I think
Where can I get those?
Or should I get another file?

Before that, do u have KIES installed? KIES is NOT compatible with odin and will cause potential trouble. So is some firewall and antivirus apps. You need to disable all of them before using odin. Please search the thread http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ for stock rom site.

Of course you fail... When using ODIN, U should have downloaded the .tar. if you downloaded a zip. then unzip it first to get the tar file, then you flash it with odin. All requests are included in the stock.tar And PLEASE DO NOT Play with PIT files if you don't know what you are doing.
So now what you need to do is. :
1. DISABLE KIES (Uninstall it better), Your firewall, antivirus.
2. Install CORRECT Samsung USB driver. (Search keyword "download samsung N7000 usb drivers")
3. Unzip your zip file and extract the tar.file.
4. Run ODIN as Administrator (Right click/run as)
5. Go to download mode. connect your device to Pc/laptop.
6. Wait until Odin detects your device, click AP/PDA and choose the tar file you extracted.
7. DO NOT tick partition.
8. Let it run
Of course I unzipped the zip to get a SINGLE .tar.md5, but flashing that fails on factoryfs about 3/4 through. consistently.

Try updating your odin. Use the newest vers. And try and read this https://www.google.com/url?q=http:/...ds-cse&usg=AFQjCNGd2e3iG5hkDeo0KyAjGuCSfQSLUw .
