[Q] GALAXY S I9000 -boot loop(how to fix?) - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

(sorry for my English )
the thing is that my Samsung S wont starts ,when i click the power button its starts in CWM RECOVERY and when i press "reboot system now" it enters a boot loop (the logo keeps running over and over and the phone)
before this happened i originally had the stock ROM of my cellular carrier (2.3.3
then i decided to install another rom and kernel (cyanogenmod 10) so i installed first a clean stock rom (2.3.6) via odin
and then the cyanogenmod rom and kernel (up to now its all fine)
after that i wanted to change and install other rom so i installed again the clean stock rom 2.3.6 via odin...and from then it started to boot loop.
i thought that if i will install the kernel again it will be OK ,but it wont..
and now im in the situation that i have described above..
help SOMEONE please=]

it is because the latest CM10 is based on a different partitioning layout than the stock one.. after flashing CM10 once when you go in a boot loop.. go to CWM recovery by using the three button combo and flash CM10 again.. . this time your rom will boot:good:

I installed the kernel and then the stock rom again but now its just bootlooping without getting load up to CWM recovery
so how can i get into CWM recovery????
(i tried VolumeUP+HOME+POWER but it just get into regular recovery...)

pull out your battery for a couple of minutes then replace battery
;hold three button forever or until it goes into recovery if that doesnt work
reflash through odin and do it again or check out darkyrom 10. re this gets flashed through odin

flash darkyrom 10.2 Resurrection edition using odin.. this will give you a GB rom with root
flash CM10 through CWM recovery
reboot.. (you may not be able to boot as of now)
go to CWM recovery again using 3 button combo
flash CM10 again
reboot
this should do the trick

THANK YOU TWO
the Darkys rom 10.2 re was great --- it starts now hahah
i Will try now another rom (not cyagonmod but PilotX)
thank you very muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hi,

The problem is now: I cant get out of this.
cwm works fine, but I cant start any Rom. Tried to flash several ones, but I still keep stucking...
Has someone an idea ?

Try downloading abyss kernel 3.9 and flash it in recovery and stay in recovery and reboot recovery. Then flash any rom after wiping all the cache and dalvik and data before final rebooting the system (after flashing the rom)
This should work !!

Use the above method i mentioned. It should work.
If nothing works then flash any rootable rom via PC Odin and you will be back to stock and then can root again and flash any other rom of your choice! Check out Dr Ketan's guide in the stickies post in development section of note forum !
got also the same predicament, just stuck in Samsung Galaxy N7000 bootup logo screen after I went to the recovery mode to format/system, format/cache..
I tried to follow the instructions actually on how to upgrade my CheckRom RevoHd v5 to Version 6...
The instructions were to format /system and format /cache... then copy the ROM to a new folder in the internal SD card...
Now the question is.. how can I copy the CheckRom RevoHD version 6.zip if I can't even boot back in recovery mode..
when I booted back.. it just stucks on that bootup logo screen.. ..
Bro how much time did you wait ? I was having the same problem! At least thats what i used to think... But turns out that the first boot takes REALLY long... took me approx 25 mins with rocketrom v22
If nothing works then flash any rootable rom via PC Odin and you will be back to stock and then can root again and flash any other rom of your choice!

to boot in recovery press and hold volume up home button and power button all at same time in any screen and keep pressing till the time the samsung logo again shows up. Then leave the buttons...it should now boot in recovery.

I already did that sir but It would really not open up recovery mode. I can however go to Download mode(with the Volume down) but what good is that anyway, right?
anyway, I have already fix my issue by reflashing it back via PC Odin...
I guess its either the instructions of flashing to the new version of CheckRom RevoHd v.6 is pretty much vague (though I really followed it to a tee) or simply the instructions are not that just well emphasized...
can you direct me to the rom you flashed via odin?
I tried flashing stock rom but i'm still in bootloop

what you need now to download a GB custom kernel then flash it with the current cwm: then do the following to get it right and rooted ics
1-right after flash the GB kernel go to advance and then reboot recovery.
2-boot into the new recovery flash any custom rom like darkynote.
3-bootup get mobile odin and get the chainfire repack ics LP1.
4-start mobile odin flash the chainfire repack and make sure all the boxes are ticked and wipe data also ticked.
5-after the flash is done it will reboot auto in to cwm flash the miui and all is done.
this log steps I'm telling you to follow so you won't encounter the banry count and yellow triangle.

Hi all. I also have the same problem. Initially I'm using LiquidSmooth rom. And then I went to Criskelo rom to try the rom...and didn't like it. And I tried to restore to LiquidSmooth and failed. Now I'm stuck in bootloader and when I try to flash anything on CWM, it hangs. Even if I leave it for awhile on the menu, it'll hang too. What should I do?
Stuck on Samsung Startup Screen
I tried various Stock Roms, but unable to go ahead of Samsung bootcreen. I can get into recovery menu & also download screen, so I assume my Note is not bricked. However I tried to flash old directly rootable GB ROM, ICS ROM, Latest GB ROM(Wipe) but nothing works. While flashing latest GB ROM "N7000XXLC1 (Wipe)" ODIN was stuck in data.fs, so flash was incomplete, In other ROMS flash was complete but I was stuck on Startup screen. I tried flashing "Q1_20110914_16GB.pit" file also but no luck. I also flashed Abyss Note Kernel 3.9 & 4.2 in ICS ROM, but I don't know how to flash this kernel in GB ROM as I'm unable to get into external memory card where I transferred kernel zip file. Please help me save my Note.

If you have stock ROM installed now and stuck in a boot loop, enter STOCK recovery and do a factory reset, wipe cache, reboot system..
thnks, but i have done everything..wiped all things so many times,installed different roms.
thats so weird problem,even the stock Rom is not working,i have installed the same rom while upgrading from froyo to gb.
is there any another solution expect these basic things.

Do factory reset, clear cache and wait for at least 15mins. Cause when u flash, it takes time on first boot. At last resort send it for repairs.
Have this problem after flash xxkpk or xxkpi(that one package i forgot which) glow agn and agn the samsun logo..tired on it other firmware.no this prob. ....the one pakage firmware only 9 step...4file mod firmware hav 10step.
Try wipe data.cache and.reboot,(cwm)

Infinite loop while installing rom

Hi there.
I am trying to install 4.1.1 Rom, and I've got this problem, no matters which rom I choose. Here are the steps I follow:
1.- Install Official 2.3.6 firmware with Odin
2.- Install Clockworkmod with Odin
3.- Go into Recovery Mode and follow the install instructions from the ROM (wipe data..., install from sd card)
4.- And here it goes. I got "Samsung Galaxy Logo - ROM Logo - Installation init" again and again. The installation shows log messages that I don't have enough time to read (something about E unknown, or can't mount. I've tried flashing with dbdata.rfs.tar, but with no luck)
Any help? Thanks in advance.
Reflash you have to flash twice and also I recommend flashing on top is cm not GB as it seems to stop imei issues
Sent from my Awesome I9000 running Slim Bean
Keep pressed the Recovery Combo until you see the Samsung Galaxy S first screen. It will force to enter Recovery mode.
Then wipe again and reflash
Instead of directly installing clockwork mod, install the cf-root kernel instead, which gives you root and CWM. That's what I normally do anyway.
He/ She doesn't need too there flashing straight to another ROM don't need root
Sent from my Awesome I9000 running Slim Bean
Thank you all for the replies.
I'll try them tonight and I'll let you know if it works out
It does that to me everytime I want to upgrade frome Gb to ICS or ICS to JB
I pull out the battery to stop the bootloop, then put it back in and get in recovery mode with three-buttons combo, then flash again the rom, it shouldnt bootloop again.
I started with last solution (remove battery and flash rom again) and it has worked out! The thing is that after removing the battery and flashing it again, "another" recovery mod is loaded and then it all goes perfect. So, thanks all for the help!
Yes as it changes the partition table and needs a different recovery to handle it properly

ICS won't boot on GB kernel, go to cwm recovery and flash some safe ICS custom kernel, if you are not able to go to recovery then use pc odin.

Flashing stock ICS is not recommended, you may have to wipe after flash, better to flash stock or pre-rooted GB rom. You will loose you data, try flashing custom ICS kernel first , it will not wipe your data.
Do you have the cwm recovery from Abyss kernel? if so then volume rocker will not work, it's touch recovery, try again.

Use your finger to navigate, its a touch CWM and just flash notecore or speedmod.
Agree with the post above me try to flash safe kernel first using pc odin if you are able to go to download mode. Then after flashing it wipe cache and dalvik.
Any update? Are you able to resolve the issue?

[Q] Need help flashing

Just got my Galaxy S back from my Mum today (After I bricked it and sent for repair) she got a note2 omg... Decided to flash a custom rom..
Here goes..
First I followed this guide completelyhttp://http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Full_Update_Guide. After I flash the CM 10, my recovery was upgraded to v6.0.1.5 after reboot. But I cannot get pass the recovery. I will have the cm boot animation, then back to recovery again. Tried reflashing the rom, doesnt say any errors but still gets stuck at recovery.
Then I went thru the method at the wiki.cyanogenmod again and successfully flashed cwm recovery 2.5 again. Tried flashing the CM10 rom again but this time round, It shows a long error message ending with "status 7"
I am still able to go into download mode.
Was on stock unrooted 2.3.3 DXJV9.
I made the super no.1 noob mistake of not making a backup........... But, why is rooting and flashing of this phone so hard.....
Pls, any help is greatly appreciated.
Btw, I have manage to flash the stock image via odin but is still stuck in a boot loop.. after Odin completed and reboot, I am back into the stock recovery with the below error messages.
It will work

U just use GB jw4(your region) ROM (don't use single file like PDA).........you use files separately like this [PDA,phone,CSC,pit(512 or 513)]...............use Odin 1.85 for flashing files......,when u complete the flashing it automatically reboot to fulfill the flashing...........then also it gives red error means........ clear only wipe cache and don't clear wipe all data...........reboot your system..... I think this will work for u...........:fingers-crossed:
Thanks. Have it solved. Flashed with another rom with seperate files. I was using the the all in one previously. Got it to run CM10 nightly though till now still not too sure how... But, I m real happy now. It works great so far and I couldnt understand why Sammy refuse to roll out official ones even for 4.0..
Still trying to figure out how to root, flash SGS though.. I have done so for many other device but by far,... this phone is the most complicating....
Aj rocker root
By processor only we not getting stock ICS rom but we getting custom ROM by hacking processor.............
For rooting the ROM u want to be in stock GB ROM like 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 and then u want to download this file(http://download.chainfire.eu/132/CF-Root/SGS/CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS.zip)............. after download u want to open Odin 1.85 and select PDA then choose the downloaded file...........select start to flash the file.........reboot and enjoy the root bosssss......if u like this press thanks:fingers-crossed:
Just to make sure..
What I did was,
Flashed Android 2.3.5 XXJVS Firmware and rooted with CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVS-v4.1-CWM3RFS.zip
Flashed the speedmod kernel via heimdall
Wiped data/cache. Flashed Latest CM10 nightly
( at this point, there was a error "status 0" installation aborted. When I reboot, the CM10 boot animation flashed twice and it brought me straight to CWM 6.0.1.5. Is this normal behaviour?? Then, not too sure what to do, I wipe data/cache and flashed CM10 and gapps again. this time round, installation successful and after reboot it boot into CM10. )
Is the above normal behaviour?
Next time I wish to change rom, from where I now( CM10) just need to wipe Data/cache and flashed the other rom?
Try to see if you can flash another custom Rom, if that works then it could be that your files are corrupted..
Have you stated your problem over at CM forums..

Most times from GB to JB u have 2 flash custom 2, 3 times. So its normal when flashing custom the first time it takes u to bootanimation and hangs (take out battery and go to recovery with 3 button combo and flash again till it says install is completed) or directly into recovery.
If u wanna flash other jb rom just full wipe and flash new custom. Make sure u make a nandroid backup so u can go back easily
