After i tried to install CyanogenMod, and it doesn't work because of bad first tutorial. I made big mistake, i didn't root my phone and didn't install CMW before installed CyanogenMod. Now I'm stuck in bootloop "Android", i can go to recovery only and i can install or update anything. I want to install original soft by Kies or by Odin, but my phone can't connect with PC. I know that computer see my phone because of automatically install drivers. But when i turn on Kies or Odin, it doesn't connected. Anyone had the same problem or know solution?
Are you able to go to the DOWNLOAD mode ?
If yes, then your pc will detect your device and you can easily flash firmware using ODIN v4.38
Hi crashew!
If you can go to recovery, you can install CWM and then any stock ROM from recovery. That is not exactly what you wanted, but it's easy and you could try it.
If not, Odin is your solution.
Good luck.

My solution is Odin, because when i try root or install CWM it's bootloop too, so i can't install anything by recovery way. But with Odin is problem, that my PC doesn't connecting with phone, I'm sure that PC see phone, because after first time insert the USB, it started install drivers to my phone, but when i try connect phone by Kies or Odin it doesn't work, Odin saying " Please connect your phone!"
So I have problem and I can't solve it.
Hi crashew!
Is your recovery: recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix.zip? If not you could try installing it from your recovery.

As I wrote above, I didn't root my phone and I didn't install clockwork, I have stock recovery, and on it I can't root my phone, I can't install clockwork or any ROM. Of course I can't turn on my phone properly, I'm stuck in switching and word "ANDROID". Bootloop
Hi crashew!
AFAIK if you can go to stock recovery you can root your phone and then install CWM.
Search in the general section, there are some tutorials for rooting, try and try, eventually one of them will work for you.
Good luck.

How to Install CWM Recovery in Galaxy Mini S5570 Smartphone?
So, let's begin. Follow instructions below to install latest cwm recovery in your galaxy mini handset.
Make sure you have got Gingerbread OS on your galaxy mini : Upgrade to GB if you don't have.
Download Odin Multidownloader v4.38 for GTS5570, Tass_v1.ops and latest Clockwork Mod Recovery if you do not have them already. You can download them from here.
Run Odin Multi downloader v4.38 and select the Tass_v1.ops by clicking OPS button.
Select One Package Option and Click One Package button and select the recovery file name (CWM-5.0.2.8-Touch2-yagya.tar.md5) file you downloaded.
Leave other settings to default (i.e. don’t change any other options/settings)
When you are done reboot your phone in download mode (Press Volume Down + Home + Power button to go to download mode)
Connect your phone in download mode to your computer via USB Cable.
When Odin detects your phone (If you see a com port number written in yellow background at the top left, then your phone is detected. View image.), click Start button.
Wait till Odin finishes the job (approx. 3-5 minutes) and when it reports ‘PASS’, you can disconnect your phone.
That's all. You have flashed latest CWM recovery on your device.

I know it's easy flashing an update directly via CWM recovery. I just posted these since many people asked me to do so.
I guess some users still prefer flashing recovery via Odin unlike you or me.

Not apply from CWM recovery...
I said from stock Gingerbread recovery..
Just put zip file to sd card (not in folder)
Get in to recovery then just apply update ..
No lappy or desktop needed.. No download mode..
Just bluethoot the zip to my friend, then made it...
Easyest way..

Yea, guyzz. I got you all... I know we can flash CWM updates via recovery but,
let me be clear Some guyz out there still would like to give this a try. So, can we just stay out of this. Those who need will use and those who don't will not.
Why should you or me get a headache for such a small reason?

Because you are using stock rom. You need custom roms like CM7 for this to work properly. You can get one at http://yagyagaire.blogspot.com and then try again. It will work nicely.
I got an error:
"cannot open the usb serial port. code: 2"
what should I do? Disconnect the phone or wait?
Thank you all.
You will need to close Samsung Kies if you have it installed otherwise install USB drivers from Samsung and try again.
Thanks for your help yagya.
I have rebooted the PC, reconnected the phone and everything worked out perfectly. Now I have CWM installed and running .
Just one question, if I reflash stock ROM on the device trough Kies, will it get rid of CWM or will I still have it?
*NOTICE* Samsung Galaxy GT-5570i mistake in title :S
Hi
Okay so the problem is my Samsung galaxy mini doesnt get detected by Odin v.4.85 but it gets detected in v.1.85. I've tried restarting the phone many times. All settings are set in the "Application" and USB debugg. All usb drivers are installed 100% with Samsung Kies.
Also tried reinstaling the drivers and other versions it still didnt work. Its 100% not the USB cable cuz it works perfectly fine when out of download mode and Kies recognizes the device.
I've tried rooting it with SuperOneClick also , that one gets stuck on one line...I've also tried through recovery mode but it didnt work either i got error, and interrupted.
Also a question : Is it possible to get clockworkmod and root without using Odin?
In any case theese info are needed:Android version is 2.3.6(i did not install this one it came with the phone) , Baseband version 25570IXXKL4, Kernel Version 2.6.35.7([email protected] #1), Build Number GINGERBREAD.IXXKL4
Looking forward to your answers

Make sure the zip is downloaded properly.
Also choose install from SD card option not, apply update from SD.
i had the same problem while rooting it was due to version of android ex: 2.2FROYO , 2.3GINGERBREAD
i had 2.2 froyo stock and was trying the method of rooting 2.3GB .. now take a look at video and let know if it helps im sure it'll help.

I not have understand if you have rooted or not? if not, before of flash from recovery you must rename the package zip for rooting in update.zip or upd_1.zip (this should be right for your firmware) and then go in recovery and do apply update from sdcard and should works, if not if you not rename the package not works.

MAN..u should tell us earlier ...flash CWM-5.2.0.8 by squad...then pull out battery-enter recovery mod again..u should be fine...
I know this is probably the stupidest thing one can do and since I mediocre knowledge about Android stuff I just did that. While I was on CWM recovery mode I was tinkering around the settings and I accidentally deleted the OS, this leaves me soft-bricked (is that the term)? When I boot up on recovery mode again it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." But when I connect it to Kies it doesn't detect the phone! And when I boot up download mode it says I have Custom binaries (it says 3) which I suppose is because I had CWM? I have no idea how I could re-install my OS back to my phone and am panicking since this was my first phone. Is flashing back to stock firmware a viable option if I accidentally deleted my OS? Or so I have to do some other process? Please I am in dire need of assistance here!

Yes just flash back stock firmware with Odin.
That custom binary is probably from the time of GB because root method was increasing it. You can use Triangle away to reset it, it is free on xda.

Odin does not have anything to do with system partition, I mean it will work anyway. Do not just close Kies, go to task manager and kill it (in Windows).
P.S. If you have any ROM in your sd card, you can go to CWM and install it. Or if you have some other phone, put SD card in it, copy ROM and install it in CWM.

As I said, phone is restarting every minute, it cannot enter recovery mode by using 3 buttons. I've tried hard resetting, but whenever I press the button to erase it, it either does nothing or it restarts again. Also whenever I change some of the settings they revert after a restart. I've tried flashing some rooted roms with odin, and it said "pass" but phone still remained the same. I've tried flashing pit files, the three button recovery and all, but still nothing did any good... Is there any way I can fix this? Is there any way to find stock official images and install them without odin, like LG's software update kdz, or HTC official installer files? Is the phone just dead? Please help guys!

I've tried flashing pit files, the three button recovery and all, but still nothing did any good... Is there any way I can fix this? Is there any way to find stock official images and install them without odin, like LG's software update kdz, or HTC official installer files? Is the phone just dead? Please help guys!

Well, I forgot to add, it is my friends phone which I am trying to repair, thing is she said she tried flashing official firmware from sammobile, but it didn't work... Which options should be checked while flashing it? Maybe she didn't put it right...

Well from what I see, it seems she checked right options. What could possibly go wrong with it? After Odin was done, the phone was exactly the same as before...
If odin fails try unchecking the reboot option and flash again.

Okay, I will try that! Will tell you the results later... By the way, is there any way to flash the zip via adb? I thought of wiping the phone through adb first.

Try to install twrp from novafusion by odin without checked 'restart phone'. Then pool out battery, put inside and go to recovery mode. Choose wipe, advanced wipe, choose everything without SdCard and slide button. Next turn off phone.
After this turn on download mode and install stock rom by odin.
If it not help, you have bricked phone.
Try any method but i dont know why you do something with pit file. Its not recommended to do wth this if its not necesary.
Cheers!

I don't think pit file thing did anything because phone just reverted back. By the way phone is running stock it isn't rooted. Shouldn't it be rooted for custom recoveries?

Answered on your question, yes. Because you need full access to operations on your phone. Btw, when you instal twrp and in some part of this recovery you want leave and restart, twrp ask you, did you want root your rom (its clue).
The easiest way to root your stock rom, find thread with prerooted stock rom to install by odin. Its the easiest way.
