I just broke my mini's system - Samsung Galaxy Mini

Hello.
I tried to install MIUI on my mini, but i just messed everything up. My phone just shows "android" and nothing. It doesn't turn on. So... Is there any solution to fix everything?

hold volume down, home and power buttons together for like 12 sec then the system should enter into recover mode.scroll by volume keys and reach factory reset and press home key.i thick this will resolve the issue.

Try to reflash rom

go to recovery and wipe data flash rom then again wipe data

Your phone is bricked. You'll have to reflash a ROM and wipe data.

No, he isn't bricked yet. He just stuck at ANDROID text. So maybe half-bricked. If he can enter Recovery Mode then you are in good luck. If he can't then bad luck, but if he can enter Download Mode, then lucky come to you ! (then if he can't, congrats... you have a trashed phone.)

Agreed. If you can enter recovery and/or download, just go and reflash another rom or the stock rom through CWM or ODIN.

Maybe one click unroot?
woops sorry wrong thread

oh my, that's a big problem... go to recovery, wipe data, cache and dalvik cache, then format system, flash rom again, and reboot...

Lol...don't be afraid nothing has happened ...since it uses aroma installer you should not wipe data before flashing miui...
Here is what you can do...
Flash a new rom may cm7 or anyother (not miui) ...then again boot into recovery and flash miui without wiping data ...afaik you will be ok...

Thank you guys for help and calming me down! Now i will try to reflash ROM.

i want to go back to ginger yoshi from cm7

hi.. im currently using CM7 on my G1 and i tried to switch back to gingeryoshi. i've successfully install it but after i install it and reboot my phone. my phone always rebooting to recovery. what ive done wrong? i still have the RADIO-2.22.28.25 and hboot-1.33.0013d. how i can go back to yoshi ????
thanks in advance
strange, to get into recovery you must hold down the home key as you power on, this sounds as simple as a stuck home key. but thats unlikely if you have been using your phone without any issue until now (im assuming this)
what recovery do you have and what method did you take to get back to gingeryoshi

... or the phone boots to recovery due to an invalid / non existing boot image.
Edit: ... or the reboot to recovery flag is set in the misc partition and is not reset correctly.

i have ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.7 and i use the common method.
wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition and then install the rom. at the 2nd attempt i wipe also the dalvik cache and at the 3rd attempt i use ohsaka-superwipe. but it all the same. after installing, it reboot to recovery. i don't know what the problem is. because i've already tried to install froyo by laszlo and even the AOSP 4.0.1 Alpha 2. but i get no problem going back to yoshi after trying those rom and i use the same recoverymod. and yeah i don't have any button problem at my phone. and here im using my phone again with CM7 because i can't go back to GingerYoshi. so i just install cm7 again. and i got no problem
it sounds like you are doing everything right. best guess is that you have a bad gingeryoshi update.zip - try going to the thread and downloading again gingeryoshi, then reinstall this to your phone.

At first, try to boot in stock android recovery and choose there wipe data/factory reset. Then reboot device.
First try wiping data,
Hold Home+Power
Scroll to 'wipe data' using the volume keys,
select yes,
If that doesn't help then don't do anything else, if you have your warranty you can just take it to a service centre.

Phone always boots in recovery

I was trying to restore my phone to previous state using Rom Manager. Phone restarted in recovery mode, formatted the boot partition and failed to restore. I applied existing of CWM ROM update.zip and snce then my phone restarts in Recovery mode everytime.
I tried one click restore using ODIN, Heimdall nothing worked. recreated the partitions wiped everything, loaded stock ROM but still the phone boots up in recovery mode.
Please suggest some pointers on how to troubleshoot this problem.

do you mean the one click for installing stock rom or something else?
I had the same problem a few days ago couldn't figure it Out. searched and searched for the right image
Files for my Nexsus S. I ended up wiping everything and flashed all the image files with TRWP cause CWR wouldn't work
for the stock ICS and and it worked fine. Now I'm running the 4.1.1 jellybean it sweet.Hope this helps.

Yes the one click package for installing Stock ROM. it did repartitioning, wiped all data, loaded everything successfully. but after booting it shows up the recovery screen.

Hmmm... i've heard of cases where the power button on the captivate refuses to be 'unpressed' which makes it boots up just by plugging in the battery,
Maybe it's like that with your volume buttons?
Does it feels a little bit weird like it doesn't click when you press it?

Thats a good point...
The buttons seem to be normal. I tried keytest and the results look fine
Volume Up : 115
Volume Down : 114
Power : 116
Menu : 139
Home : 102
Search : 217
Back : 158
Moreover I can access recovery and flash any ROM that I have on SDCard. Funny part whenever I flash a new ROM I see a new recovery
Do you know of anyway use ADB without booting phone and putting it in debugging mode?
Thanks for your inputs.
Update: Issue is resolved
I'm not sure on exactly what worked. Using System Corps Recovery, I changed all the partitions to ext4. Made some random changes to toggles during boot. Restarted in download mode and flashed a one click stock rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
it booted in recovery, then clicked on Flash Bootloader in one click and restarted the phone in download mode and flashed it again with the same ROM.
Thats it. I feel that Bootloader did the trick, but I had it flashed earlier as well.
Thanks irfarf & Sammyazel for your inputs on this.

congrats!!
i do also think that it was the boot loader is the problem here
i had a few problem with my friends cappy won't go into download mode and whenever it boots up, it shows a bunch of random colors than a boot image. turns out that the last bootloader flash wasn't done correctly or something.
Confirmed - the problem is with the bootloader. Once I flashed an original firmware from Samsung, I was then able to install CWM and any ROM I wish after that. Not sure what caused the problem, but this was the solution in my case. Thanks to everyone who pointed me in the right direction!!!

Try running the keytest from recovery mode to ensure all the keys are working fine.
In my case it was corrupt bootloader that caused this issue. you can try flashing stock ROM with bootloaders to fix it.
All the best!
i have same problem. buttons work ok after key test.
how can i reinstall the bootloader?
ps: i hate this stuff.....reminds me of win95/98......awefull times

What exactly did you do to get to this point?
You can find Odin KK4 with bootloaders here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
You will need to flash corn kernel with Odin 1.85 afterwards if you wanna flash a custom ROM.

[Q] i have a problem with CM9

Take the back off, pull the battery. Put it all back, turn on the phone holding the POWER and the -VOL to boot into recovery.

Recovery hotkey

Hi, dont call me a lazy person for not searching, because i did and didnt find, but can anybody tell me a hotkey combination to enter recovery, the latest-non touch version? I have currently no ROM installed i wanted to install a nightly upgrade but after a wipe an error occured and the phone rebooted into bootlooping. Thanks in advance.

So you had cm10 installed? If yes push power + volume down and hold it. Otherwise use smartflash to unbrick. Only kernel 3.0.8 includes this reboot to recovery option. Older ones dont have it...
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app
thats the problem i had CM10 installed but does it have anybody to do with it since i wiped my phone? im trying the power+volume down method but doesnt seem to work...downloading smartflash
just for sure do I press them simultaneously or one by one?
thanks for the quick answer by the way :good:
Plug in your charger and when you come to the charging screen hold vol- and power. (or maby on lg logo works to)
If you can't come to the charging screen use smartflashtool.
ok i seem to have a problem here. i use smartflashtool and everything works ok i enter recovery and install supeuser but my phone keeps looping, any idea?
