[Q] In reboot loop with no access to recovery mode

Hi,
I was trying to install 2.3.6 DDKQ6. The Odin process finished successfully and restarted the phone. But now the phone is in a boot loop. It keeps getting restarted after 2 seconds. I can't get to recovery mode.
I can access download mode but flashing even again (different ROM) doesn't work.
Please help me
Edited 10-22-2012: Still no solution found. I have tried many ROMS and even tried to flash stock recovery. Senior members, please suggest next step

Please, anyone has a solution to this problem?

Make sure the rom is in your region. Dont install a rom from another country. Try get to recovery mode with button combination. Search for more tutorials.

As long as ur phone is bootlooping, it can enter in stock recovery. So, take out battery, re-insert it, goto STOCK recovery & do "wipe data/factory reset" & wipe cache. It worked for me & for most of us too!!

I have tried the recovery button combination a lot of times. I believe recovery comes after the logo screen? But my phone keeps rebooting before even showing the logo screen.

Before flashing 2.3.6 DDKQ6, which firmware/rom u were using??

I was using Froyo 2.2.1 firmware code starting with JP or JV.
Here is the procedure i used for update.

Then flash it again to get back to normal first, then go for updating.

I think
first comes the Samsung logo (no matter which ROM u have installed).
then comes your device logo (varies with the kernel installed).
then boot-screen.
If you press home+power button u will enter into the stock recovery console(if cwm or other recovery is not installed).
And if you don't press the home+power button then you will boot normally.
Be on the safe side
Press home+power button until u see the recovery console.
Most of the boot-loops can be solved by wiping up cache and factory reset.
Hope this will solve your problem.
Edit:
Try some after market ROMs they are way more fast and efficient than stock Samsung GB ROM. Try Apocalypse or
Democracy.

Just hold the power button and home button... release it when you see SAMSUNG.. flash the rom again if still you dont get any help...

Phone bricked

Hey guys.. i think i have bricked my phone
I have the c6602 model and have a unlockable bootloader but left it locked. I have rooted it using goroh_kuns method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2186368
then put CWM for locked bootloaders on it using this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2187363
then flashed this stock based kernel ROM through CWM without wiping the old one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2175903
but now my phone starts up, and reboots automatically, resulting in a loop. I can not go into the CWM recovery anymore because you have to do it through pc everytime while your phone is on.
Personally i think its Superuser from the previous rom and SuperSU from the new rom mixing up and resulting in the loop boot
Can somebody help please..?

Did you try to enter to CWM recovery by pressing volume key while booting to see if the recovery is working

yes it does not work, the led becomes blue after holding power + volume up it vibrates thrice x 2 then i continue volume up and the led turns blue but nothing really happens, i think its the download mode?

If you have the blue led working this means that it has the fastboot mod working - press VOLUME UP + PLUG INTO PC(not power)
try to switch off the device then press the VOLUME DOWN button while connecting to pc = flash mod
If you have one of theese working you can always repair your device

[I9001] Phone stuck in bootloop

I don't know how the issue started. I have been using CM10 for almost 2 months without issues. I restarted the phone and boom! It was stuck in a bootloop with that boot animation keeping appearing all the time. I tried a factory reset, flashing the ROM again, flashing another ROM, and even flashing the stock ROM with all the images using ODIN. It was still stuck on the boot animation. I was surprised that the last solution didn't work because everytime I did it, the phone recovered from the bootloop.
I can still enter into download and recovery mode.

Samsung GT-I9000 boot into recovery mode after pressing the power button
Not sure it is the same problem or not, but my phone (Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000) keeps booting into recovery mode everytime I turn on the phone by pressing the power button. I tried to root with the stock PIT file and stock ROM or CWM recovery and stock ROM or any customized ROM, such as CMD 10.1, but it still boots into the recovery mode every time I turn on the phone WITHOUT using any combo keys, e.g. VOL down, Home and Power buttons).
The thing is that the recovery mode is not looping. Basically, after I press just the POWER button, the phone boots into the recovery mode and stay there.
Please help!
Many thanks!!!

Hey you are gonna want to flash a stock image using odin which will solve your problem. There should be a guide somewhere

My problem is solved, I had to go to "Mounts and storage" in recovery and choose "format /cache"

What you have to do is to flash the boot loader, I had the same exact problem and this solved it. But our devices are different so I don't think my boot loader will work on yours.

[Q] cant acces stock recovery

I have the t679 on tmobile and qm qttempting to get root/install cwm.
I do not have access to a pc qnd so am unable to get into stock recovery the 'easy' way.
I saw instructions on holding down the up volume button qnd power buttin, then releasing the power button after the first white samsung logo appears. i hqvr tried this many times to no avail.
I will not have access to a computer for the forseeable future. Does this mean i am stuck on stock 2.3.5 or is their actually a way to boot into stock recovery right from the phone?
Thanks !

I have a quick question about this. I have never done any of the holding buttons down while you reboot nonsense to get to recovery. If I hold in the power button I get a menu. I can shut down, restart, go into recovery or start the bootloader. I just select recovery and hit restart. It boots into TWRP. Am I missing something? It seems to have worked fine with my latest rom. Maybe this situation explains the trouble i was having loading AOIP.

Once in recovery factory reset and clear dalvik flash rom and gapps

I did that. Cleared everything twice and flashed the ROM. Did not flash gapps, as everything was buggy.

Fastboot cm11 kernel and then try to boot device.
It's kernel problem...
If that won't do the job, do this:
Flash stock firmware through pc companion, root it and install recovery.
Edit:sorry, my bad - I meant flash stock ftf through flashtool...
Download CM ROM again and flash it.
Make sure flashable zip contains boot.img, that's kernel.
You can drive cm rom on stock kernel, your device will stuck in loop...

cnyoen mod 11 boot loop problem
but right now as i said the loop is not allowing the phone to charge.
when little charged the loop is draining the battery and the mobile is switching off.
due to this i am unable to go into fast boot or repair through pc companion
but iam able to go into cwm recovery.
any help to recover ?

Press and hold both the volume up and power button until the phone vibrates 3 times.
Then you can flash the CM kernel
Inside the update.zip is boot.img file, flash with fastboot using the following
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then enter recovery and flash the update.zip
EDIT
If you can enter recovery just flash the update.zip
If you have unlocked the boot it should work

i held the power and volume up button and waited for 3 vibrations.
then tried to flash by pressing vol u p button and then the usb cable into te mobile.
but there is no blue light i only see the red light and after some time the cynogen mod boot loop appears.
pls help .

enter recovery and flash the update.zip
Where did you download it from?

That's not recovery, that's flashmode.
Reboot the phone and repeatedly press the volume up button as its booting to get in recovery
Then flash the update.zip

r u there .. can u suggest anything...

Yes, follow my instructions
Enter recovery and flash the update.zip
Do you know how to get into recovery? I have told you in my last post. You seem to have recovery mixed up with flashmode.
You need recovery.

once i reboot the phone and while pressing the vol up button should i connect to pc ?

No, recovery is on the phone, it has nothing to do with the computer.
Please follow the instructions as I have given them

powered the phone and kept on pressing the vol up .. the red light initially there vanished and the screen is blank. i dint see any activity after i powered on the phone except for the red liht flashed 2 times and the light vanished.

OK, leave the phone on charge for a few hours .
Then try again.
If you cannot enter recovery you need to fastboot the kernel from the update.zip and the enter recovery after that.
If all else fails, just flash a stock FTF using flashtool

how do i know if my phone is charging , becoz yesterday i charged my phone whole night .
but in the morning i still see that it does not get till the boo screen.
is this a hardware problem?

What are you talking about??
He can't use fastboot because he unlocked bootloader!?
That's the exact thing you can do when you unlock bootloader...You can flash custom kernel.
If he use kernel image with recovery he has everything..
