[Q] Wrong Firmware loaded

I have a I-9000M from Bell. By mistake, I flashed to stock of Galaxy Vibrant (T-mobile). I think I found the right flash, I get into download mode and download the flash using Odin. However, when rebooting the phone gets into recovery mode. When I try to format the internal SD it gives a mount error. When I try to boot it remains stuck at the flashing "S".
I was on KG3 before trying to load the Vibrant software.
Any ideas how I can get the phone to reboot?
Thx,
Mike

[Q] Bootloop after going from CM7.1 > Telstra stock 2.3

Hi all,
I want to flash my phone back to Telstra (Aust) stock prior to selling it. I am currently running CM7.1 and I downloaded the Telstra gingerbread ROM from here and I then flashed the rom in odin with 512 Pit and Re-partition ticked. After the rom was flashed, the phone rebooted into recovery mode but then says "failed to mount /dbdata". Several other errors occur as well.
e:copy_dbdata.media: Can't mount /dbdata, your storage is not prepared yet.
I think this may be because there is a different file system etc in CM7, but I was under the impression that repartitioning when flashing a rom would take care of this?
Any help would be appreciated.
Rupert
edit: spelling

I worked it out - when going from CM7 I needed to flash a 3 file firmware with re-partitioning instead of a 1 file firmware. All good now!

[Q] Samsung galaxy S locked on download mode after install cyanogen and cf-root

Hi everyone,
I made a mistake
I installed cyanogen on my galaxy s, when i booted it worked perfectly.
So i needed to install google apps. I didn't understood the process and i used odin to reinstall the cf-root CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVO-v3.2-CWM3RFS.tar
But now the phone is on download mode and impossible to back to recovery mode.
I tried to remove and replace the battery ... but nothing change, the phone is locked on download mode.
Thanks for help me recover the last backup!

i found the solution by:
reinstalling kernel speedmod-kernel-k16-11-Odin
and GT-I9000_XEF_1_20110525163319 rom
the phone is booting now but i have probleme during boot.
i turn in recovery mode and see that /dbdata is inaccessible. After spent a lot of time on the net, i found some solutions:
re-partition with pit file and flash rom again, wipe data/factory reset. But when i wipe factory reset, i have this message:
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl10
Any help should be nice

Dont' do factory reset just Flash 3 file stock rom (phone, pda, csc) in odin with pit 512 & re-partition checked.
Get files from SamFirmWare - search in Google for link.
I found I had to flash the 3 files a second time. The 2nd time flash without checking repartition and don't flash the pit file (so just flash phone,pda,csc).
Once you have done this you should be able to do factory reset & clear cache etc.

Thanks for reply!
I realised that i didn't found the right file. After spending some time to search, i finally found the good file and i could flash with the 3 files.
- i turn on my phone in download mode
- installed the CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVZ-v4.3-CWM3RFS with odin
- format everything i could (i think i didn't have to ...)
- restart the phone in download mode
- install the 4 files (PIT 512, PDA, PHONE and CSC) with odin
Then the phone restarted correctly.
Ok i losted all my datas but it was not really important, the most important for me was to get my phone working.
Now everything working fine.

Glad I could help

Help - Bootloop from format sdcard, odin didn't fix

Here is my situation:
Flying to Europe long-haul tomorrow and I have no phone. I was about to swap phones with someone, so I cleared the data (factory reset) and formatted the sdcard , I didn't think this would delete my whole ROM and recovery image, just some nude pictures I needed to remove.
I was stuck on the boot logo (samsung .Galaxy S.. GT-I9000), which would flicker every now and again as it restarted.
I used to have Slim ICS 4.2 and Clockwork 5.x (I think), but I just want to have a working phone for my travels.
Now I have the yellow triangle working. With ODIN I have even managed to get a simple recovery, but it still boot loops, albeit with an fancier animation and optus logo.
Odin settings:
PIT: s1_odin_20100512.pit and
PDA: JW6_JV6_JW1.tar
re-partition: yes
auto-reboot: yes
f. reset time: yes
odin3 v1.85
So is there an odin compatible ROM around that will actually work for a blank sdcard? It's an Australian GT-I9000 from optus.
I think I'm close to getting this thing working, but having a flight tomorrow I don't have the time to search for roms.

I now have a working phone after flashing JVT from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583026
Can't wait to get this samsung junk off it and get back to Slim ICS.

Odin on a Semaphore kernel from the dev thread onto your phone (.tar file). Preferably use version 1.2.6 from the ICS thread. Boot into recovery mode and use the format SD card option there. Stick with 2 GB and 0 MB allocated to swap. After that finishes mount the SD card from CWM and copy a ROM onto the phone, then flash it. CM9 or 10 should be fine. Alternatively you can Odin a stock ROM back onto the phone.

You need to un-check the repartion in odin3...dat creats bootloops..
That would have been the issue...
Cheers

[Q] CWM format boot

hey guys, im curious.
I have a boot loop problem, would I be safe to 'format boot' through CWM or will this screw up my i9000?
I Have a stock rom 2.3.6 with the PDA, CSC, PIT and Modem files for odin.
Could i rely on the stock rom files through odin to save me if I formatted boot and screwed my phone?
Thanks for any help

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you can format boot and should not try booting phone BUT powerdown, pull out battery, sim, SD cards and go into download mode to flash FULL package
you can get everything you need from My Android Collections place a bootloader with ROM package and also tick update bootloader
