Try to re-flash your stock GB Rom. If it doesn't help, here is a link which you can follow. I always use this link as a guide when going back to GB before re-flashing my desired Rom.

I need help with flashing stock firmware. Well, I flashed my device with some turkish firmware who had 4 files and I did that via Odin. When I realised that I have turkish firmware I downloaded stock version which consists only 1 file and tried to flash my device trough Odin (followed procedure for flashing with one file) and it wont work. All I get is endless reboot loop on my device. What should I do? Please help!

Try again with wipe data/chace and wipe dalvik cache(from advance from in CWM)
Reflesh your stock firmware.
I high recommend you to rewrite stock 2.3.4 XXXXKPI(European)or specific for you region.
Anyway more details in this thread from Sammobile
KPI version have 4 files but was by far best version for me that i've used.
Also be carefull to load corect packs for boot/csc/modem/phone:

If you are european shall not care if it is Turkish or Russian,just change leanguage.
I want to reflash my phone because KIES wont upgrade stock firmware after I flashed with Odin. It says that "this device cannot upgrade over KIES". It's common problem and I heard that people were solving that with reverting original stock firmware for their country. I dont know exactly am I right but I wanna try. Thanx!
Its very buddy, you can search it on this forum. You can find it here.
Hi,
I have a problem when trying to flash my galaxy s and install ICS Dark night v5.5.
When I try updating the kernel using ODIN, my phone gets into bootloop.
It is a froyo installed phone. Also, I am unable to get recovery mode. It enters download mode though.
Can anyone help me out in this??? I am very new to this stuff... I am a beginner...
Held up in this for a couple of weeks.....
Thanks,
Sridhar
If you can boot into download mode, use ODIN to flash a stable rom, then get CWM and your back to where you were, hold off the nightly builds or post in the Cyanogenmod official thread or forums.
Thanks a lot... That did work.. But now i have got Mobile network not available error after flashing.....
Probably best to mention which version of software you are using and the source...
Best option is to flash stock gingerbread version via Odin.
www . theandroidsoul . com / xxjvu /
sorry can't put correct address in yet dont have enough thanks...
it would be better to update to any stable stock rom, go to sammobile.com...
i suggest you update to the latest firmware or ics stock rom for i9000 via odin then root that firmware you have chosen(CF-ROOT) and then update the custom rom darknight v5.5 via cwm...
I think you need gingerbread bootloaders for ics.. You were on Froyo, so it won't work.. You'll need to install a stock gingerbread rom with the pit file and repartition.. After that you can try an ics rom..
I found this thread. After attempting to get CM9 onto my S it wouldn't boot so I used odin to install a stock from from sammobile but now the phone just boot loops.
Could someone please help me.
More info:
After the odin flash - I get a screen like the recovery menu saying things such as "E:Format_volume:rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl10" and things of a similar nature - will have to see what the others say.
Any ideas?
You probably flashed a rom without bootloaders. Try flashing a 3 file rom from here and repartition with 512 pit.

Hello,
I will start with saying that Ive already checked every tutorial in every android website.
here is what I did.
I had Miui (Not the ICS one) I have tried to flash CM9 with the existing recovery. than something somewhere on the flash procedure go wrong and the phone just rebooted and putted in loop with no recovery option but download option. so I tried to flash the stock rom using odin 1.85, and the phone just looping on the image of the mobile operator. I did this procedure with the odin for more stock roms I found.
thanks in advance really I need your help...
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/xxjvu/
maybe you forget ‘Re-Partition’checkbox, it's important.
Hmmm.. perhaps, you have to make sure all the files are properly placed (depending on the ROM you are installing). Also, I'd recommend using a pit file (and don't forget to click on "Re-Partition".. So far, it worked for me. ^.~
Hey peeps iv got a big problem it happened yesterday with my Galaxy note GTn7000. I was on stock ICS LPT and was flashing new kernels through CWM when suddenly my phone just kept freezing on the Samsung screen when I start it up and it has been happening since yesterday. I think it was the speedmod ICS kernel that I flashed that made this happen. I flashed Abys kernel through odin and could get in to CWM. I did factory reset/wipe cache/dalvik/cache and then flashed checkrom which was on my SD card. Installation was fine but then it got stuck on the Galaxy note startup screen. I was searching for answers on the XDA forums and someone suggested that you flash a stock full wipe GB rom. So I tried to flash LC1 open Europe rom and was waiting for an hour the the rom to flash through ODIN which had only a bit left on the bar to flash and it didn’t flash it just froze. I tried 3 times and the same thing happened . I have used the USB jig to erase previous downloads and reset binary count. I flashed ICS LPT rom through odin and it flashed normally but when it starts up it gets stuck on the Samsung screen. Any suggestions? I can get into download mode and CWM so it means Im in a softbrick. Do you think I should download an ICS rom and put it on to my SD card and then try flashing it ? Help would be appreciated thanks.
Here is the video of what happens. Basically i have waited for 4 hours yesterday and it just stays on the samsung screen
Hey, Id recommend you flashing back to GB via ODIN before we continue.
ICS still has a few bugs and that could interfere with getting you back up and running.
Hey thanks i will download a new GB stock rom, i cant post the video link because im a new member dang...

So you've extracted the original tar file, you don't need to, just point the original tar file to the pda section of pc odin, it will sort out each partition for you.

Is it a rar. Or a zip? If it's a rar, re download from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 then extract one level with 7zip to get the tar file.

Hi!
I try to get upgrade my tab to Android Jelly Bean, but I find this a bit difficult.
I rooted my device with SuperOneClick and it worked, but when I try to instal the ROM I get this message: signature verification failed.
Have been searching around the internet, but I'm not very good at this.
Basically I need someone to explain what to do in a simple matter :fingers-crossed:
Would appreciate if you could help me!
you can't flash custom ROM using stock recovery. that is for Samsung signed updates only.
Follow my signature for overcome method.
Please note this: don't need to follow all the way to flash Overcome ROM.
You only want to get to a baseline stock rom (GB-stock-safe-v5).
The you flash overcome kernel, which gives you CWM recovery.
With that, you flash the jelly bean according to the custom ROM instruction.

Yes, even to 4.1.2 or 4.2.2
The procedure is exactly the same as I quoted above.

Regarding the mobile networks, do you get signal at all? Check that your APN settings are entered correctly & you're using the right modem.
As mentioned, be sure you're on the right gapps for your build if you're using an aosp rom.

Recently i'm reflash to GB stock which is the version "Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread [XWJQ8]". But after that,I did a factory reset.
Than I flashed the original Gingerbread ROM. Odin didn't give me any error message, but after the tab rebooted I got stucked in a "recovery screen" with the following message in red:
E: Failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
E: install-application-for-customer: Can't mount /data
your storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
There was an option for format in this recovery screen, but I was unable to select it. The volume up/down keys worked to navigate in the options, but the power button didn't make the selection.
I force the tab to shut down keep pressing the power button. Started it again and the same screen showed up.
Could you help me, which part i was fail because of this?
Try the home button as OK button in stock recovery.
Edit:
BTW, which ROM did you come from? If you were from anything that is AOSP, likely you have MTD partition.
You need a full restock with pit file and "repartition" checked in Odin to get back to BML partition that stock ROM requires.
If your ROM file doesn't have it, you better use Overcome method and its GB-stock-safe-v5 that has it.
