i cant , after installing, the device start bootlooping and i cant access CWM , i need to restore new firmware 2.3.6 via odin

Hey Guys,
So I updated Rom Manager to latest version and now in 'Manage/Restore backups' my backup was missing so I thought no probs I'll just restore previous version with Tit backup - but I still cannot see backup ?
I tried fixing permissions and also moving file out then back into CWM backup folder but this didn't work either -
so any idea's ?

There are several threads on how to flash to JB, and coming from JB you have to flash to ICS first. Here is a good flash guide on JB->ICS: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494493 When you flash in CWM to ICS you'll get a "quick" installation (about 20/30% as you say) and then the device reboots to a "bootloop". This happens because change in kernel. You can just pull the battery after the kernel has been flashed and insert battery while holding down 3-button combo to force into CWM. Now run the .zip again and it should flash properly in the new CWM and kernel.

You sure you have enough battery on your phone? Go to download mode again and flash gingerbread, root the phone. Then copy the slim bean into your internal SD card. Now go into CWM and do three wipes (Cache, Dalvik and Data). And flash the ROM....It should be up and running after that...

If it doesn't boot flashing GB again sorts the problem out, thats GB again! It means your IMEI has lost. You need to go back to stock rom to retrieve your IMEI. Download any gingerbread stock rom from net.

Sorry if I interrupt, but i have a quite similar problem. My SGS DOES boot though, and works okay... BUT it isn´t recognized proberly by my pc(although having all drivers installed) tried reinstalling both drivers and whole OS. Also tried other computers and cables. Phone boot fine in download and recovery mode but isn´t recognized by Odin, heimdall, oneclick etc.? My question is as following: Is it in anyway possible to grab a OTA/STOCK .zip to flash in Recovery 3e??
Thanks

When you flash from GB to ICS or jb and even fro. Ics to jb it will reboot on install then you need to go back into recovery and run the install a second time this is due to a partition change and the kernel needing to be rebooted into one compatible with those partitions so basicly flash cm9 or 10 twice for it to boot correctly

[Q] Soft bricked 5570 - boot screen freeze

Hello dear friends!
I have following issue with the phone>
1. Phone had froyo installed on it.
2. i tried to copy a custom rom to sd, and then, i just tried to flash it directly via stock recovery. (completly noobish, i realize now...)
3. apparently by the status from the stock recovery it succeeded. BUUUT actually not...
so>
4. i got stuck into the samsung boot logo...
so>
5. i tried to flash cwm recovery through this steps provided by this tutorial.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342190
6. I now got a black screen instead of any recovery. tried it also with the froyo version of the recovery (designed apparently specially for froyo devices) and also with the gingerbread one. still no joy....
now, i am really lost and have no further ideas.... please help me at least get this back to stock again (it is the phone from work and i will have a hard time explaining them that i bricked it.... )...
please advise what should i try further??
THANKS!!!!!
PS> pls take into account that i am kind of a noob regarding this device... did a lot of things on my hox, but i do not know to much about this s5570....
download a four package firmware then flash it with Odin
Can u pls give me a link to a download / tutorial?? It's my first encounter with odin, so i am pretty noobish... Pls pls

flashed GB rom on it - working
by downloading official gb rom from

flashed cwm recovery - works with the steps from my first post now
flashing a custom rom from a zip on the sd card does not work afterwards!!!!!!! - it soft bricks phone again and i have to redo the 2 steps above.... why???
what am i doing wrong???
you didn't wipe data and cache before and after flashing process, right
now u have cwm recovery just boot into recovery and flash another rom... but before u flash rom make sure u clear cache and data from recovery menu then flash rom.
Guilty as charged!!
Trying it now and updating afterwards!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
if your flashing gingerbread over froyo without wiping cache and data then that's why your getting soft brick.
I flashed jb from odin, so no cache deletion needed...
But yes, for custom rom install delete cache data all except sd before!!
So now cyanogenmod is up and running!!

Search for the newest cwm recovery and flash it, install the JB Rom with factory reset and the hole stuff and then have a look at the wiki maybe theres a zip to go back to stock recovery (Used this way myself but i' m using the s+ so i don't now if theres such a file for the normal s. sorry for that)
Or you can search for how to recover from bootloop to recovery
Anywhere was a thread for this but don't know at the moment, will post a link tomorrow

Help?

Right, to cut a lonnnnng first post story short, basically, rooted my phone yesterday, went well, installed some rooted apps and was having fun, one app, 3D something, from Google Play. it asked me to restart my phone after setting superuser (i thought this was quite weird) anyway i boot locked my phone - got the typical "Samsung GALAXY Note GT-N7000" and the phone woundnt move from there, i can gt into vol+ home and power and vol- home and power still. so after some research i found i had to flash therelivant stock ROM using odin - so i did. and it worked. then at somepoint today my phone got stuck in a boot loop consisting of the GT-N7000 screen then the samsung spash screen. when i do vol+ home power, i get in red text "E:/error%20in%20/data/recovery_last_kernal_log.txt" - what does this mean? and how(if at all) do i fix it?
i have curently re-flashed stock ROM and vol+ home power & "wipedata/factory reset" and so far so good......
any help or shed light would be a great help
Phone is Samsung GALAXY Note GT-N7000
Flashing the stock rom won't change anything if you have not wiped data. It just restores the system. What rom are you on? JB or ICS? To get everything to factory standards, install philz kernel.
Then boot into Cwm and choose wipe data,-clean before new rom flash.
Once it's done, choose reboot download and flash the rom again with odin. This way anything that the "3d something" might have done will go.

1. Install philz kernel from recovery.
2. Boot into Cwm recovery and choose clean before new rom install.
3. Choose reboot download.
4. Connect to pc and flash rom using odin.

so put philz kernel on the ext sdcard
vol+ home power - and install
boot into cwm and choose clean before new rom install
reboot into download
and then flash stock rom?
one last question... will the lastest philz kernel work?
thanks again
i currently have PhilZ-cwm6-XXLT4-OXA-4.93.6-signed on my external sd.... will this do?
yeah any kernel will do as you just need recovery... once the kernel is installed, boot into recovery.. You should see CWM based recovery.

Keeps rebooting to cwm after installing CM

Here is what I did with the phone:
- Flashed JVU via odin
- Flashed CF-Root with CWM via odin
- Wipe EVERYTHING
- Flashed semaphore kernel for 4.3 via CWM
- Rebooted to CWM
- Flashed CM 10.2 stable via CWM
- Flashed semaphore again
- Flashed gapps
And now the phone keeps rebooting to CWM everytime I power it on. It never goes to Android, it always boots to CWM. Any ideas?
Of course, i tried to flash CM / semaphore / gapps again but it keeps doing the same. Flashing only CM does not work either
same problem with my i9000 back year..U have lost you internal memory..it can work if u take you phone into download mode for 5 minutes and then start it it will work..

What do you mean exactly? ;_;
By the way it seems to work after flashing a samsung stock ROM but it does the same everytime I try to install CM. And I have done it before, I don't understand this ;_; (I decided to start over again because I was having trouble to downgrade from 4.4)
Have you find a solution? I faced the same problem and after reading half of the day on this forum I managed to find a solution to go back to stock and restore the phone functionality. Now I only have to flash CWM/TWRP and start to flash custom ROMs again
Let me know if you still need help.
The correct procedure to come to any ROM is from GB>ICS>JB>KK. So make sure that you are following the correct procedure
