I installed many roms (I have used before) with following instructions (Installed without any errors) but my phone gets stuck on Samsung screen in each case. When I tried to restore backup of those roms (I make backup of all roms when I install them) I always get "Error in flashing boot.img". I flashed XXLF3 and XXLA2 (PDA.tar) FW via Odin and still the problem persists, I even flashed the original FW I made during rooting my phone and still this problem is coming. This problem occurred after installing Deodexed XXLI1 s5830i By Alucard1989pl ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957326 ). I tried to installed Jellyblast V3, Simplicity V2.1, AndroidScream V1, GingerCream V2. Niether of them works (They did earlier). Please help me.
EDIT: When I put phone on Download Mode I only see a black screen, But I can see the COM4 In Odin and I can flash FW's but is there any way to fix this? (I tried re-flashing with Odin)
I think your boot is damaged.You have to flash the bootloader not the pda file.
so go to download mod then press volume up you should see the com then start.
You shouldn't restore the boot.img from an older kernel version.It's mentioned in Rafael's kernel thread.

You can find a flashable firmware package in the unbrick section.And yes flashing the bootloader will fix the download mode.

delete boot.img from sdcard\clockworkmod\baclup and remove the md5 from nandroid.md5.So cwm bypass flashing the boot.img and start recovering system

You CAN or CANT access download mode ? If you can, simply flash a stock ROM via ODIN.

Yes I can, I tried to downgrade to GB but it failed as well :/
I don't really clearly understood your issue.
But if you want to flash a Stock ICS Rom, start ODIN PC, start your SGNote in download mode (button volume down + home + power), then connect your SGNote to your PC and flash via ODIN PC.
If you don't know exactly how to use ODIN PC, check tutos on the forum.

When you say "it failed" you are going to have to be more specific. Please give us an error message. Did you get a NAND write start and factoryfs.img and it just freeze after that in Odin?

Reinstall your ADB/USB drivers, make sure you're using USB2.0 port - for me USB3.0 always results in failed flash, ultimately switch USB ports.

The file you download from dr. Ketan is a .rar file, unzip it once and you get a .tar file. Flash that file with Odin in pda section. So don`t unzip the .tar file again.

To start with - you need root to flash this custom ROM, so unrooting your device was a mistake, you have to root it again.
Now, i've never flashed Criskelo's ROM, but from what i've read in the thread, you need to root your device, flash Chainfire's ICS repack via mobile odin, and then flash criskelo rom via CWM. Do not unpack the .zip file, you need to point CWM to that file.

When you boot into recovery, is it CWM recovery?
If you are talking about not seeing the CWM app, don't worry about that.

Hi,
so I bricked my galaxy mini after flashing gingerbread with odin. It gets stuck at samsung logo but the bootloader and recovery(custom) still work. The problem is that I cant flash a new rom because odin cant recognise the bootloader. I think its because gingerbread replaced the stock froyo bootloader so it cant be recognised by odin.
Any help plz. Thanx in advance
boot into download mode through vol down + home + power button then flash firmware through odin
I f the custom recovery works download a rom for galaxy mini , put it on sd card , flash it and boot into android

I tried that but it says installation aborted. I think its because the rom isn't signed. I will be grateful if someone suggests signed custom roms that can be flashed by the android system recovery. Thx in advance

Rename the ops file in the right format.
For example if it was S5570_tass_v1.0.ops, Rename it to tass_v1.0.ops and try flashing it again. This helps it to get recognized in Odin and can unbrick the device.

I tried flashing it. Still installation aborted
download latest kies and install it and then reboot your system
after that try to flash
I tried everything I could on the responses but still odin could not recognise my phone. Tried flashing CWM with android system recovery it succeeds but when I boot recovery I find the android system recovery.
My question now is how I can flash CWM without using odin or android system recovery? I will b very grateful if I find the solution. Thnx in advance

Maybe the downloaded file is corrupted..Try flashing another baseband FW and check it.
For flashing kernels theres a SAFE AND FREE app

Install this app and open it
Select the md5 or bin files from it and flash them and restart.
There you go...its done
I dont know about downgrading to GB..never tried and not gonna try it
MY JB is awesome:highfive:

You can't enter recovery after flashing original fw via odin? Try taking out battery, put it back in and force recovery. Press it for a long time till it enter recovery. Then factory reset. I encountered this once on galaxy ace, endless bootloop and can't enter recovery but download is okay. Then I pressed the buttton until it somehow got into recovery. I don't know if this works but you can try though.

We do not have any JB custom kernel that is flahsable with Odin. So I suppose you flashed GB custom kernel on JB, that is your problem. Flash whole STOCK JB FW again. After that use ONLY JB kernels. CoCore 6.x for example. Only one not abandoned from updates for now.
Do this again with JB, step by step: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086965
And kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140597
Unzip it, put it on SD card, install Frapeti's universal kernel flasher. Install some ROOT explorer, this app needs it to work. Use it to install kernel.

In combination with your already closed thread from before I do not really understand you.
What Rom did you have before? What did you do? What was the problem before?
But: if you can switch to download mode then you can install a stock Rom (see the link I gave you in the other thread) with PC Odin. Do this first and check if you succeed or if you get errors.
HI Thaidai i downloaded latest samsung original firmware and flashed it whit odin (N7000XXLT9_N7000HTSLT1_HTS) and its succed.
but still same problem. And dont be angry Thaidai.
Maybe its the battery?.
One more question triangel counter shows 1 is the warranty gone then?
regards wikings1
If you are really sure that your flashing with Odin was a success:
Try to switch to recovery now and make a factory reset.
You installed a kernel with Odin - resulting in a raised counter. You can remove this later without problems. But first you should get a booting device again.
yes iam sure it flashed oki but still same problem.cant boot to recovery. i Think firmaware was original no root from sammobile
shall i try Another firmware from the link you gave in Another tread?

In your posts from last year you used a Custom Rom.
So I think you do not really know about the state of your device and so also you don't know if the flashing with Odin was really successful.
So: yes, download another stock Rom, check the MD5 hash to be sure that the download was correct.
Install it with PC Odin AND make a snapshot of the ODIN window after flashing was completed and post it here.
i had custom rom but i tryed to flas original thats why changed rom
i will try whit rooted rom ilbe back
thanks for help thaidai the battery was broken. replaced it whit new one and Everything is ok

Hello Every Body
Appreciate your help as i am new to this .
I have Galaxy GT-N7000 , & I rooted it with Stock Recovery+Safe Kernal + CWM Recovery as in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2217840
it work great with no problem at all , then i update CWM recovery using ROM Manager & try to backup my ROM using ROM Manager , the phone is restarted directly & stuck at Galaxy Note GT-N7000 LOGO and stop booting , i can't go to recovery mode , i can only go to download mode
How to solve this problem ?
is there any solution to fix this problem & keep my data on phone ?
I am a beginer , this is my 1st post & the only thing i do is to root my device and use the apps
Please:
1- write detail instructions or link to a post so i can follow & learn what to do
2- Appreciate to put a link to any needed tools
Thank you
Rom manager is horrible. And useless.
If you can enter download mode, just Odin flash a stock firmware and redo the steps to get recovery. You should only create rom backups via recovery, Rom manager does not seem to support the Note 1
