Hello everyone,
first of all, thanks for reading this.
So here's a short scetch of the details of my phone:
I have an samsung GT-s5570 galaxy mini I, and a half year ago i succesfully rooted it, now it's running android 2.3
Today I tried to upgrade it to 4.1 with cyanogenmod 10, so i did the recovery, update thing, but i forgot to install clockworkmod. after a 'succesfull' update, rebooting ends up giving me a black screen, normal startup gets stuck at the samsung logo. i tried to update it to the version it ported with, i tried to update it to the root thing, but none of these changed anything. Odin multidownloader doesnt detect it, even system wipe/factory recovery doesnt change anything. I'm not able to figure out how to fix this, please someone help me with fixing this and/or updating it to android 4.1 with cyanogenmod 10? thanks in advance!

Firstly, it was a dumb thing to do to flash a custom rom through stock recovery. Secondly, you can't fix it just by wiping data, you gotta flash stock rom via ODIN. Thirdly, to let your computer's ODIN detect the phone, it's gotta be in download mode. To go into download mode, just press and hold Home+VolumeDown+Power buttons.
There's a guide available in my sig feel free to refer to it.

Uh... sounds like something is seriously wrong with your phone dude =\ You should be able to get to d/l mode regardless. Does the phone still work fine otherwise?
Unable to root sgs gingerbread NEJVD
I have the same problem after upgrading to official firmware via kieys. Running PDA:I9000NEJVD, PHONE:I9000NEJV5, CSC:H3GJV6 on 3mobile. Odin doesn't recognise phone in download mode, computer only reads onboard sd card when connected as usb storage. Tried one superoneclick too but stops at running pnueter exploit/gingerbreak exploit. Super laggy as well, Can i roll back to froyo? any help highly appreciated.

Did you try diffrent usb port on your cpu?
also..on the cpu that your using odin to flash , do you have kies installed?
if so make sure it isn't running ( i would uninstall just incase)
see if that helps.

I am interested in rooting too, and I have gingerbread. I have 2 problems though, first, I do not have the 3button combo working. I thought the gingerbread update would fix it, but no luck, and the method I found here did not work. I hear that you should not try to root without the 3 button combo working, but what choice do I have, samsung update did not fix this bootloader problem. I cannot put my phone in download mode without having it plugged in and recognized by adb.
My 2nd problem is that I have a I9000T and it seems nobody has this phone around here so I have no way of knowing if some of the rooting options even work for my phoen and firmeware.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I actually have a i9000t, ive soft bricked a few times as long as you could get into download mode you should be ok, allways keep a stock rom around just incase to flash back to through odin.
Ive flashed a few modem with no problems, few roms with minimal problems..
Cm7 lost radio and weird pixle screen boot.
Deoxidized roms work good.
I had flashed Darkys 9.5 and everything worked till i noticed the stock music player gave me reboots.
I had tried flashing MIUI but no luck at all, could of been my zip. File was messed up but i tried a diffrent and still nothing.Now im on Darky 10.1 final no problems.
This has to be the most stable/fastest rom ive ever flashed.

hi.. do you have official kies installed on your computer?
if so uninstall it first... and installed the unofficial samsung driver.. sorry i cant post link here as am junior member..
you can search in google "samsung usb.rar". Once you download it, then installed it on your computer. Open you odin, put your phone in download mode,
and plug in to computer, then odin should be able to recognize your phone.
Once I have the same problem and it works for me with above step. hope that help.

Thanks for the reply! Ok, I finally manage to have the 3button combo work and get into download mode and recovery mode. I want to root, can you tell me if the odin method works on 2.3.3 stock, on I9000T . Also, How can I fully backup my phone. Which android version did you have when you rooted.
Also, I keep reading those very old threads and I was wondering what the latest Odin version is used for 2.3.3.

Turns out We/I have been using the wrong button combo for download. Download mode is: Vol DOWN+Home+Power On.!!! Recovery mode is Vol UP+Home+Power On. I used Fuguroot with my stock kernel from RAMAD (senior developer). Flashed with odin & it took LESS THAN 2 MIN! Check out this link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011901.Hope this helps. Do remember to thank Ramad and Nicademus!

I don't have a galaxy tab, but it should be similliar to my galaxy s. I think your device is NOT bricked. As long as you can get to download mode, your device is NOT bricked. If you can get there, you should try to flash with odin/heimdall again. I think you must have done something wrong in the flashing process. AFAIK the logo is displayed by bootloader (primary), so if nothing went wrong with flashing the secondary one (download mode), you should be able to flash again.
For about a week now my samsung galaxy tab p1000 keeps freezing on the samsung logo screen and every minute ore so vibrates very short.
No matter how long i wait it keeps like that . Ive tryed the reset from the recovery mode (powerbutton + volume up) but no luck. The tab is still on a stock fw 2.2 i believe. and no root or anything.
Im very new on the whole rom stuf so some help is needed on how to restore the tab. I havent flashed it or anithing. Also it gives a error like in the screenshot below:
You should flash your tab and install a new firmware that's the only solution

oke i figured that much yesterday, when reading some topics, but wich rom do i need to use?? because i dont know how to root the tab because it wont boot ore is rooting not a must?
dude... get the latest 2.3.3 firmware...
you may check www.samfirmware.com to see latest firmware for your deivce. If you are in ASIA region, look for JPI edition. Its good, fast and stable.
Use ODIN to flash, with REPARTITION ENABLE... once complete flashing, reboot, and repeat the FLASHING again... DO IT TWICE..., but REPARTITION ONCE only...
Do i have to fully boot between flashing, or after first flash straight to download mode?

to play safe, let it boot.. but you can skip the configuration and shutdown and go into download mode..
Oké gona try it when i get home

Im at your same state. My tab hangs on samsung logo and lets me to download alone. I can help you with the drivers part. Im sure you have the Kies in your system. Just push the on button and connect your phone to the pc and run Kies. You have an option to troubleshoot which will update the drivers for your phone. This worked for me. For the rest of the part, there is a chap who is helping me on this forum and he advised me to go for stock ROM. Ill try that today after sufficiently charging up my phone.
I ve been searching for a while now and looks like this is common and nothing much to worry about. Ill keep you posted on what happened on my attempt to odin flash the stock ROM.
Hello friend, my tab is back and working fine now. Hope tried connecting kies to get your driver up for the tab. Once its up you can get to the download and flash stock rom using odin. This would bring your phobe back to life.
I am currently running on overcome experience rom. Its pretty good and they have great instructions on their site. Try that you should be all set.
Best of luck.
I have the exact same issue. I've been trying to flash a Euro 2.3.3 for the last 5 hours. Anything special you did before I create a new thread? I've done this a billion times on my old tab....I just got this one today off ebay.

Can you be more specific on the state of your G-Tab?
What firmware were you using before the problem occurs?
if you are updating from proyo, you will need to flash dbdata.rfs. For your reference you can follow these following steps (given you can access download mode).

Use the latest version of odin. Also go into download mode before connecting to pc. Plase thank me if you found this useful.
Sorry if this kind of thread is posted somewhere else already, but i've spent a lot of time but failed finding the solution to this problem.
Rooted for the first time, worked fine, installed ROM MANAGER, too, to create a backup, tried installing CLOCKWORKMOD from recovery, but since after that, my phone is stuck on the initial screen showing "SAMSUNG GALAXY ACE GT-S5830i" [Maybe this is SOFT BRICK]
I AM able to enter recovery mode, tried factory reset, unroot, etc but of no use.
PLEASE could anyone help me.? (And I've no idea of ODIN)
Please please help.
Get an idea of odin, then use it. It's different for 5830i (1.85 is the version u need)
And try to stay away from rom manager.

U're lucky to have it just soft bricked. Many others have completely hard bricked their phones.
Download stock firmware & flashguide for S5830i from www.samfirmware.com
And pls. For phone's sake... Don't use Rom Manager ever again.

I went through all the posts on bricking, did what others tried but to no avail. I had CyanogenMod on it with TWRP and tried to do a restore (bad idea) that's when it bricked.
I got the stock tar file, used a USB jig to get me into download mode, used Odin 3.7 to flash it, all went smooth but she still hangs on the Samsung logo. I've tried it 3 times, same results.
Do I need a Pit file?
Am I missing anything really obvious and important?
Should I flash a rooted stock tar since it's was rooted before I bricked it?
All the links on the 'Goodies' page for the Note are all dead links now so please don't refer me there.
Thanks for any help.

Turns out the USB issue with Windows 7 Pro (64bit) was the problem. Got it all done on an XP computer I keep as a backup for this very reason.
Stock ICS is working great. No more B.S.O.D.'s Yay!

I'm having the same problem. Trying to put my note back to stock. Now it is also stuck at the samsung logo during bootup. I can't get into recovery mode, tried installing 2 different stock roms and nothing. I have twrp, so I installed cwm to see if I can use that recovery and nope. The only thing I can do is go to download mode. I also tried doing all of this on an XP as I also did this first on Windows 7, and didn't work for me. Someone help please.
Exactly same issue
Hey
I'm having exactly the same issue, only difference I first tried this on Windows 8.1 64bit and then Windows 7 32bit - Still just getting the samsung circled logo on boot.

I'm having the same problem, note t879 lock in logo samsumg, did step by step through odin 2 STOCK ROMS (T879UVLG3, T879UVMA1), the process ends successfully, but the phone restarts and crashes in logo samsumg. anyone have any solutions? help me please
Hi everyone. I have a rooted Galaxy Note 1. I accidentally tried to update something (the phone said there was an Android update or something) and now my phone in stuck in a bootloop showing the Android logo. When I try to reset it (volume+home+power buttons) it goes to an Odin "Downloading..." screen and gets stuck on that.
I've seen some stuff about unbricking the phone using Odin to return to the original stock rom. But from what I can tell, there are different stock roms available depending on your Country Sales Code (CSC). So apparently I need to look in Kies for my CSC to know which rom to download, but Kies doesn't recognise the phone, I guess because it's bricked. I know the phone is from the UK, but I don't know what network it came from (I bought it second hand). All I know is that it is unlocked now.
I have CWM.zip, CWM-SuperSU-v0.87.zip, and franco.Kernel-r5.zip on the micro SD card from when I was rooting it ages ago. Do these have anything to do with fixing it?
Any ideas on where I go from here? Thanks for your help.
Which volume button did you press ? You need volume up + home + power to get into recovery.
You can flash any rom from any region using odin.
Same problem
Hey,
Thanks for helping me in advance...
I used the Custom ROM (( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1970626 )) Ultimate N7000 for a long time. However this build became more and more unstable the longer I used my phone.
So I decided to go back to STOCK.
So I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
And everything went well (Odin didnt give any errors)
However after reboot... the problem began... I cant turn my phone on anymore.... It seems to be stuck in a bootloop....
How can I fix this?? please help me
Which rom did you flash? If you flashed JB, boot into recovery and wipe data. Then reboot.
