Because my i9000 has been horribly slow with the stock rom the past few months, I finally decided to give a custom ROM a shot.
I followed all of the steps to install SlimBean and I succeeded in doing so. However, I did not backup my EFS and upon booting SlimBean, my IMEI and BaseBand were empty. I've spent most of my day trying to fix this - turns out, I can't. After a few hours I decided to try flashing the stock ROM. I found one on sammobile and after data wiping with Odin I flashed it. Now my phone's stuck in a boot loop. When I turn it on, it plays the boot sound, then it plays the animation, after which it will show the S logo for a few moments. Then, it keeps restarting the animation.
I've spent a lot of time and effort on trying to fix this, and I've tried a ton of solutions I found through google and this forum's search function.
Is there anything I can do in my situation? Did I permanently screw up my phone?
Thank you very much in advance.
Try flashing stock ROM using Odin with PIT file and repartition enabled.

I've tried this with the .pit file included with Odin3, it will immediately fail. Should I have had one specific to my phone?

Today, my phone became laggy and I restarted my phone, however it didn't boot past the samsung galaxy s i900m screen. It never reaches the animation screen.
This happened before and after hours of trying different methods i sent it in to get fixed but now it has happened again and i want to see if i can fix it myself.
I have tried to flash it with I9000UGKC1 without any PIT file and repartition unticked and odin had completed it successfully but the phone just cycles back into the boot screen.
Ive tried flashing it again with the same firmware and a 512 PIT file with repartition ticked and unticked but its always the same result.
Is there anything I am doing wrong or are there any other suggestions?
p.s I have rooted the phone and applied a lagfix.
Thanks in advance.
Rule one before flashing UNDO LAGFIX lagfix F**** your install .

Hi dude,
Try flashing with the ODIN included.
Hopefully, it will fix your problem
P.S. if nothing works try flashing Darky's resurrection edition

Good luck!
Thanks for the replies guys.
jje, i would disable it now but since it's bricked i dont think i can. Also i cant get into recovery mode. Im only getting into download mode because i bought myself a jig the last time this happened.
Nitro, i dont know what you mean by "ODIN included" ive been using odin to flash it.
What is Darky's by the way? Is it a custom ROM?
darkys is a custom rom... and Im pretty sure he meant he had attached odin for you.
Maybe try flashing JL2 with 512 and part checked..? does odin flash without an issue? and do you get any errors when trying to enter recovery?
Oh okay... well i was using odin 1.7 anyway
odin flashes without an issue and i cant get into recover because my phone is one of the unfortunate ones without 3BR.
I'll try flash it again as you said but if it doesnt work ill just go ahead and send it in to get fixed.
there are phones with no 3BR? I thought it was only 3 button download??? So odin flashed without any issues and you still cannot boot?
What firmware are you flashing?
Try JL2/KC1 maybe try a gb like JVO
usually the phones can't get into either.
i had to buy a jig to get into download mode.
ive tried KC1, JL2 and some others for android 2.1 and the same keeps happening. Odin flashes fine but the phone never boots
I'm just going to send it in to get fixed. I was just seeing if it was me doing something wrong or its just the phone and well it seems like its the phone.
Thanks for your help
if you can hit download mode you should be able to flash it, does adb work for you to get into recovery i think it's something like
adb reboot recovery.....not sure on that though, anyways, try flashing a new kernel, go to the dev section and flash hardcore speedmod then flash the rom again, at this point I dont think it matters so I would try using a 512 pit and tick repartition......just me though, i'd be trying everything before I sent it away
Hello,
I will start with saying that Ive already checked every tutorial in every android website.
here is what I did.
I had Miui (Not the ICS one) I have tried to flash CM9 with the existing recovery. than something somewhere on the flash procedure go wrong and the phone just rebooted and putted in loop with no recovery option but download option. so I tried to flash the stock rom using odin 1.85, and the phone just looping on the image of the mobile operator. I did this procedure with the odin for more stock roms I found.
thanks in advance really I need your help...

maybe you forget ‘Re-Partition’checkbox, it's important.
Hmmm.. perhaps, you have to make sure all the files are properly placed (depending on the ROM you are installing). Also, I'd recommend using a pit file (and don't forget to click on "Re-Partition".. So far, it worked for me. ^.~
Hello everyone.
I have a problem which I hope you'll be willing and able to help with.
I wanted to try out CyanogenMod 10 on my Galaxy S I9000. I was on 2.3.3 so I used Odin to update to 2.3.6 (rooted). Then I installed superuser and mod manager, after which I installed Clockwork. I then used Clockwork to install CM 10. It worked flawlessly and this was my first time flashing ever.
However, I didn;t like CM 10 and decided to revert back to Gingerbread. I read it was as easy as simply using Odin to flash 2.3.6 again. I tried that but got stuck into a bootloop displaying the S sign over and over and over again. I tried downloading the PIT file which made Odin check Repartition by default and flashing like that but it didn't help, I'm still stuck in bootloop. I can access download mode without a problem but I'm stuck in bootloop forever.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Update: I found a thread detailing how to get back to Froyo so I tried it. I used a PIT file, PDA file, PHONE file and CSC file all separately and it worked. Now I'll just have to update back to 2.3.6 No idea why I was only able to revert back to Froyo and not Gingerbread, but it worked, thread can be closed.
Hey,
Bit of a late answer, but so you can refer to it if you ever go back to custom roms.
When you come back to stock from CM10, or any custom rom for that matter, you need to flash in a file named dbsdata.rfs.tar. Fixes the bootloops (custom roms and stock have different data partitions so incompatibilities in data partition cause bootloops like yours)

My mom's Samsung Galaxy Note is currently stuck on the Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 screen. Tried removing the battery and reinsert then turned it on same problem.
Also I am unable to access the recovery I remembered that I have philz kernel installed on the unit. And im only able to access the download mode.
Also when I flashed the stock roms that I have stored on my computer specifically GB roms it shows that it was successful but when the phone rebooted it is still stuck on the same screen. Not willing to do any more steps as im really out of ideas here. Hope you can help.
BTW my mom is only using the phone for standard use meaning call and text and a few game words like crossword and some solitaire games. And sh said that the phone just turned off then thinking it was due to low battery she charged it then when the battery shows 100% full she disconnected the phone and tried to turn it on that is when the problem occured.
Here is the screenshot of odin. And im a bit concerned about the line where it says "RQT_CLOSE!!!" I don't know what that means.

Some more useful information, the phone was on Jelly Bean Stocked Jelly Bean with custom kernel I forgot if it was Philz or speedmod. Phone is already out of its warranty.
Stuck on the Gt-N7000 screen? It doesn't go into bootloop when you flash the stock GB ROM ? Can you access the stock Android recovery? Remove battery, put it in and then try to access the recovery using the same the button combo used for custom recoveries.
The Odin flash went perfectly, nothing wrong with it.
Friend of mine is having the same issue, flashing to stock UK Jellybean.
Same issue
I'm actually having the same issue as the OP I'm bookmarking this as I am looking for a fix I flashed the Vodafone rom for the united kingdom and am now stuck on the bootscreen for all samsung devices.
Try booting into recovery and reinstalling one of your backups if you can - usually works for me. Clean all caches etc first though.
PC Odin may take a couple of attempts to flash it correctly I've found when I'm trying to repair a major stuff up.

Have you tried flashing a kernel through Odin PC and then booting into recovery use one of philz .tar files for the kernel and see if you can get in to recovery sounds like you have lost recovery. This has happened to me and I fixed with philz kernel through PC Odin good luck and also you may need to do a full wipe after flashing a ROM through PC Odin to get it to boot

Yup already performed that but stuck on logo snd cant access cwm recovery.
Got mine fixed by doing this procedure which is really weird. Flashed pit with stock gb rom then once finished im still stuck in splash screen decided to flashed ics with pit same results then i flashed jb rom using pc odin with pit after a few minutes i was able to access the menus and all those icons. But the apps and games installed are still on the device which should have been removed when i flashed stock rom.
Flashed philz kernel via mobile odin and wiped factory data and it seems device is working now. Still under observation though.

you are flashing a non wipe rom so the apps will still be there
Hi There,
I'm using the s3 mini gt-i8190N
I've been scouring the forums, flashing like crazy to try to get this fixed. My phone is stuck on a boot loop, recovery mode goes to a boot loop. I can however get into download mode.
I've tried:
Reflashing with the stock firmware
Reflashing PIT file
Reflashing PARAMS file
Reflashing Kernel
Does anyone have any ideas?

Hello,
I had this earlier on. I managed to successfully sort mine out using this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159660
You need to get a stock image from sammobile. This didn't work for me, initially, but once i flashed it along with a pit file from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1953962&d=1368285117
that managed to stop the bootloop, and the phone booted fine. Not sure what the param.zip file does, when I flashed it, it didn't have much of an effect.
