This weird problem started when I was trying to install PureX Audio Mod. I have stock .434 rooted and locked bootloader. I have installed the CWM for locked bootloaders and it was working flwalessly. I also disabled flashing stock recovery on reboot and was working with the device. When an update was available for the mod, I went to recovery to flash it and it didn't boot up into recovery nor the LED changed. It suddenly started booting into device. I tried the following steps
1 Flashed recovery again.
2 Un rooted, re rooted and flashed recovery again.
3 Flashed TWRP recovery.
4 Even used ROM manager and tried to flash recovery. All the processes succeed in flashing but didn't work and the device boots straight into home.
5 I know that flashing stock rom all over again and rooting would work, but other than that could someone help me with this?

Hi i have the i9001, I rooted the phone earlier and all was fine, I then went to install cwm via odin using the 2 files and it flashed them and the phone rebooted back into android where it then said pass on odin even though it timed out? i tried booting into cwm and was succesful so thought nothing of it and backed up my rom and then flashed real rom.
and now my phone will only boot into cwm and thats it and after while will turn off and reboot into cwm and it will keep doing this.
I have no sd card installed. and i still have the problem when i restore the stock rom.
Any help guys as this isnt my phone?
This happened to me on my I9000 so might work. My solution was to wipe data/cache partition/dalvik again in cwm, re flash new ROM and reboot, if back into cwm then repeat. Took me 3 repeats then booted fine. Happened as I upgraded from stock GB 2.3.6 to CM10.

Yes that normal if you want to upgrade from GB zu JB. Because of first the change of the kernel respectivly the change to new CWM, and then for the new partitionlayout, you have to flash 2 or sometimes even 3 times the rom of your choice and then it should boot....!
I tried rooting my Sony V, but its ended up in disaster where the phone doesnt boot past sony xperia part and just loops.
I tried to root it via this link:

Through" Gasai Yuno" step by step instructions. I have tried to originally flash my phone using the"TRIMMED-LT25i-SOL21_9.0.F.0.195.ftf or the original LT25i-SOL21_9.0.F.0.195.ftf " but it turned out a disaster.
I managed to get the bootlocker unlocked but even that seem to have re-setted everything on my phone to default and deleted everything on my phone.
SOMEONE HELP PLEASE!
All I wanted to do was load this ROM.

Those instructions are for Android 4.0.4-based firmware. Obviously the phone will bootloop if you flash 4.0.4 over 4.1.2.
Use Flashtool to flash it to a proper 4.1.2-based firmware and get root using Binary's scripts.
You could also flash a custom root-enabled kernel using fastboot if you unlocked the bootloader.

Unlocking the booloader always resets all data, it's normal.
thanks guys really appreciate the help!
Any chance you can guide me in the right direction to a 4.1.2 based firmware?
This thread has FTFs for .140. You could just search the forum for "LT25i FTF" yourself, you know.

Ok I flashed it back to normal then I tried to install CWM Recovery through this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012738
Using this method:
"Installing CWM for the first time is as simple as:
Download CWM v4 installer for ICS if you are on Ice Cream Sandwich or CWM v9 installer for JB if you are on Jelly Bean, and unzip
Enable USB debugging and connect phone to your computer
Run install.bat/install.sh"
After that I tried installing this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2500671
But it failed and gave me error7 I think it was, so I tried to forget about the rom and tried reboot the phone back to normal but now the phone doesn't go past Sony on boot up, and I can't load up CWM.
PLEASE HELP!
Flash the .140 FTF using Flashtool once again.

Just for Information... Most flashable ROM zips do wipe the system partition before the actual install begins - as a result, your recovery (which is for locked bootloaders and thus stored on system partition) is also gone. Which means that on reboot neither rom nor recovery is present to be booted in.
So in the case of a broken rom zip or errors in CWM, it is important to either flash another (working) rom zip and the CWM-self-installer zip directly afterwards or restore a (hopefully) previously done nandroid backup.
Otherwise, you'll need your pc to setup your phone again ^^

I give up ;/ I cannot install any samsung rom above 4.3. When I do, my phone stucks on samsung logo and just refuse to turn on (its not a bootloop - it doesnt restart)
I have xxbmb4 bootloader, I have installed this rom and Hbo Kernel. What else can I do?
p.s. I can install any AOSP rom and it works just fine. And yes I do full wipe every time
No need to give up
I had the same problem yesterday.
My device was on 4.3 and I flashed Philz touch recovery and did a backup without a problem. But when i restored a backup and rebooted it was stuck at the Samsung logo. After trying so many things all day (wiping, cleaning caches, trying to root, reflashig recovery, .... ) following was worked.
flashed 4.4.4 STOCK-Official rom using Odin v3.07. then it booted SUCCESSFULLY.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ck-rom-4-4-4-gt-i9305n-i9305nxxufni4-t2886807
then rooted it using the following guide (did not use any recovery. Only rooted it using CF-Auto-Root-m3-m3zh-gti9305.tar.md5. and installed SuperSU version 2.02 provided in the post.

Hi,
i want to flash any custom rom via recovery. I have unlocked c6903 with .108, i am using latest z1-lockeddualrecovery installed using towelroot method. Any flashing with twrp or philz cwm ends with success message, but when i reboot device it vibrate once only and stay with black screen. i tried to flash a lot of different roms, or just kernel only, for .108 (Z1_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_FW-108_v05). Everything ends with black screen.
I am getting back with flashtool and ftf flash of original rom.
What i am doing bad??
Thanks a lot for reply.
that is recovery issue. choose another version of dualrecovery on NUT's site and reflash it.
not working
hi.. still not works..tried 2.8.15, 2.8.19, 2.8.20
i have rooted and installed recovery via installer, when rebooted to recovery, i wiped data/factory reset, then installed rom from zip, checked checksum and after reboot black screen. I tried to flash recovery after flashing rom but without change.
Hello, just bought an used i8190. Since last friday i have been trying to flash a custom recovery on this phone via Odin, but after i flash it returns to the default recovery on next boot.
Yes, i have unchecked the "Auto-reboot" option on Odin. I turn off the phone and then manually enter recovery but with no results. I rooted the phone pretty easily and installed both TWRP and CWM apps to flash from android, but they don't work either (twrp crashes always and CWM just gives me an error.
Mi baseband model is XXAll2
kernel is 3.0.31 [email protected] (root name seems weird)
I searched the forum and found similar cases with the baseband, but even so i haven't found a concrete solution.
I even flashed a new pre-rooted rom from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2030282
Mi compilation number has changed to XXAMG1 but the baseband remains the same. I can't flash a recovery whatever i try.
I hope someone can give me an answer, cause i really want to use this phone feautures to it's fullest
Update:
Somehow, i managed to flash CWM via it's app successfully. However, when i tried to flash the TWRP via zip all i got was a blank screen and the phone booted directly to Android. I had to reflash the cwm with the app. However, i tried flashing via odin the Lineage os 14 from novafusion and i got a bootloop, reflashed the old stock firmware and now my device works but the recovery doesn't, and can't even flash this time via the app.
I tried flashing via ODIN stock recovery and other recoverys and i still get the same result. I have downloaded some stock roms, but im afraid to flash them in case i end up in a bootloop and unable to access recovery still
Any clues?

Flash the stock rom as it will fix bootloops and bricked devices. Make sure to have the right ROM and flash it with Odin. The os may take longer on first boot and make sure to factory reset it as data may cause bootloops, then try flashing the recovery.
I flashed twrp 3.1.1 through Odin
