[Q] Bricked - Samsung Logo Repeat, Can't Fix by Stock Rom

Hi all,
My i9000 cannot boot successfully, it repeats the samasung logo again and again.
And when I try to re-flash the stock rom - 20110531_ZSJV5_2.3.3_ROOT_STOCK by ODIN
After reboot, it shows following Error:
E:failed to mount /data (File exists)
E:delete_data_files:Can't mount /data
your storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu for format and reboot action.
Media files copy failed
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then it keeps repeating the samasung logo again and again.
Please help!!!!

Can you access the download screen (volume down + home + start) or CWM screen (volume up + home + start)?
If you can access the download screen, use Odin and download the stock Gingerbread from online (do google search), make sure you also have a PIT file like PIT 512 or something, and have the re-partition ticked, try that and see if it fixes the problem.
If you access CWM, maybe voodoo lag fix is on and didn't properly format the partitions.

Thanks
I have tried using ODIN 1.8 and I9000ZSJV6
But the problem still retain
The screen shoot :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

You need to get a .pit file (512) and use repartition in Odin when you are flashing the original rom.

Yeah~I have used PIT512 and selected Re-partition, but problem still remain........

Damn ... it looks bad.
I have a suggestion.
Push a speedmod kernel with odin.
Enter recovery mode.
Convert the partitions to RFS (even if they are reported as such).
Redo the flashing of the original rom.

O...situation goes really bad
After I have flashed SPEEDMOD, I enter CWM
and try to convert to RFS, it said:
Can't mount /mnt/sdcard
Backup failed!
Then quit.
And I try to mount internal SD,
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblo0)
(No such file or directory)
Error mounting SDCARD:!

It looks like you have issues with the nand memory. I'm not sure 100% about it but it sounds like this.
In case your nand flash is dead, I really don't know what can you do ... there are few topics related to this issue. Check them out and see maybe is a solution somewhere.

don't use JV6, try flashing using JVQ, and don't use rooted versions, use a pure stock, try using Odin 1.7. It if can't mount, maybe there's a corrupt internal SD.

You may want to look at the stock rom vs an odin custom rom (like darkys resurection edition) and see if everything that that the custom has (minus the mods) is in there. I would get a mounting error for db_data from my stock rom (drove me nuts) because the stock roms did not update that and there for with a re partition it was missing.
I finally found another post on the CM7 forums that mentioned it so it could be an issue for your rom too?
If you determine which file it might be you can pull it from an earlier stock rom (one of them should have it).
You might even try flashing darky's. if it works then you know its a file issue and the phone is likely fine.

I flashed over 10 different roms with re-partition but nothing change...........
but luckily warranty should still cover, it is now in factory.....
Thanks All~

Similar problem: Phone stuck in boot up loop
Okay so about 2 months ago rooted and put a new rom on my vibrant. Last night I decided I wanted to go back to the original stock rom by restore my phone back to its original factory settings (at the time it made sense to me). I did this by turning the phone off, holding the volume buttons and power button until a menu came up where I selected wipe to factory setting. In doing this I cleared the rom I had on my phone and am now stuck in a loop where my phone keeps trying to turn itself on but has nothing to boot up. I am able to get to the menu that enables me to wipe my phone to factory setting etc but that hasnt helped all too much. I'm unable to mount my phone now on my mac in order to put a new rom on the sd and Oden does not seem to work for macs and I do not want to put a virtual machine on my computer but will if thats the only solution. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

That doesn't wipe to factory settings if you had a custom rom. It just wipes the user areas so IF you had a stock rom it would be back like day 1 but with a custom rom its like day 1 of the custom rom.
Though something else happened here too.

Don't use a mac use Odin and do it on windows, download the stock jvq rom again except in windows and use the 512 pit file aswell. See if that works.

Also forgot to mention when using Odin in windows make sure you have the windows drivers by downloading Samsung kies. From the Samsung website.

Flashed clockworkmod on gingerbread previously updated via kies from froyo
Version of clockworkmod: 5.0.2.8
Any help much appreciated

For those come from non ICS MTD rom, such as yourself from froyo,
You need to flash cm10 twice.
First round installs new cwm and converts to mtd.
Second round the rom itself.
So, just boot to cwm again, and flash cm10 again.

By flashed i mean i have flashed only recovery yet.

Oops. Yes, then you should flash.
Weird you can't go download mode.

I can, i created this thread because my stock rom isn't working after install of recovery and im curious why and to know if im safe to begin install of cm10
edit1: I found something, that can be related http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1841748
gogol1996:Well, the problem is that the bootloop occurs if the cwm i mentioned is flashed in the firmware of gb stock safe package. so i recommend against it
Maybe that is the case but what can I do now?

Well you saw my post there too.

There is something else about I forgot, because I installed recovery when the battery was about 40%i didn't have to worry about this, but now because I was checking recovery and download mode it's about 20% I think. When I plug the charger it displays battery whith circle but its not showing the state of battery, is it charging or not and if not will it charge in download mode/recovery?. And because I can't boot stock rom I can't access internal sd, can I use external from my wildfire S to place cm10 rom file and install via recovery?

not sure about the charging from recovery/download.
But you can always powered it all down and charge.
yes you can download using your other phone.
but make sure it is not corrupted (I prefer to download using PC if possible)

I want to download using PC and transfer it to wildfire s sd card. You mean I have to deplete the battery completely? It's little risky, because if I then wont be able to charge it it's over. The tab is off when i plug the charger.

not sure about that part. Probably just battery charging animation. Just leave it charging for a few hours then do your flashing.
You are not flashing the bootload (since you are not using Odin), so it is unlikely you can screw up the bootloader. So it should be always possible to revive should anything go wrong. Unless there is hardware issue to start with.

Ok, I'll do as you say (for charging battery is responsible bootloader or Rom?)

I am not a dev. But I remember that certain battery charging animation pictures are in kernel. One of the cm9 humberos kernel has broken battery picture briefly when plugged in.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

Ok, I want just to make sure, that the charging script isn't damaged because if yes, the tab is just depleting(screen doesn't go off while charging)
edit1: That what I get in recovery:

I tried also HumberOS http://www.humberos.com.br/2012/08/cm10-20120823.html ,the same result.

What was your tab running before this? What model is it. What does it say at the back. The assert function says you are not P1000.
Did you do the whole GB stock safe v5 + overcome kernel.
If not, you should. That should correct the detection.
The alternative is to unpack the rom and find the updater script deep in META-INF folder and remove the assert lines....

Since all these devices (Droid 2/R2D2/D2G/DX2 and DX seem to be vulnerable to the same exploit found by phifc at
http://rootzwiki.com...nd-droid2-r2d2/
I have assembled rooting methods for all of them in EzSbf style CD. I have tested it on my D2G, and the same method has been tested by multiple users on the D2/R2D2, and has worked fine.
Credit for this method go to phifc, djrbliss, and the others who developed the method.
I have simply taken the method, and assembled the tools.
Credit for the idea behind the CD method should go to 1KDS, as I have mostly patterned this CD after his method.
Credit should also go to Skrilax_CZ, as without his Motorola Android Firmware (De)packer, we wouldn't be able to have a 55 meg CD that covers multiple devices.
Special thanks also to themib for testing and troubleshooting on the DroidX2. In fact, since I don't have a DX2, he actually did a majority of the work in finding a method that would work (the method for the D2 and D2G doesn't quite work), and then we worked together to get it assembled and working.
This CD is for the D2,R2D2, D2G, and DX on Android version 2.3.4, and the DX2 on 2.3.5.
One note if you have troubles with it not working. It might be necessary to disconnect the phone after it flashes the preinstall and reboots. It seems that some phones may not complete the reboot process before being rebooted by ADB, so you may need to disconnect the phone when it starts booting, and let it boot fully before hooking it back up. when hooked back up, it will be rebooted, and should go on with the process like normal.
Of course, like all other things here, I have done my best on this, but there are no guarantees, and anything you do on your phone is at your own risk.

Thank you for this by the way. I pulled my DX out of retirement to try CM11 and not everything went as planned. I remembered I had an old sbf disk tried that it turned out to be 605 which of course resulted in a bootlader error. I was able to use 621 restore and root to recover from disaster. :highfive:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TheCollective is Proud to present to you StockRooted-sch-i800 Verzion Galaxy Tab ​
For what ever reason we all need to get back to the default factory state.
soft brick
resale
loss of stablity
to name a few.
Here are the steps you will need to take.
First let's point out that this package contains EVERYTHING YOU NEED for this Except the windows PC to which it will be used on.
Before we begin Install Samsung usb device drivers located in the package.
**\tools-resources\drivers
Samsung_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.14.0
next is unpacking Hemdall 1.3.2 (The only one that worked for me on my SCH-i800)
**\tools-resources\Heimdall\
heimdall-suite-1.3.2-win32.zip
But here is a link to the developers page so you can download the original/newer if you want.
http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/
You will also need *Microsoft C++ 2012 32bit [if 2013 32/64bit has already been installed you will need to remove it first to install 2012]
This needs installed on your machine because it has .dll files Heimdall uses.
**\tools-resources\MicrosoftC++12\
vcredist_x86.exe
Now you will need to install the drivers this is also needed for Heimdall.
unzip heimdall and go into the drivers folder where you will see /zadig.exe. Run this.
At the top you see options. Click "list all devices"
Then in the dropdown select Android USB composite device (or whatever it says, eg genirc serial device) (tho NOT massStorageDevice)
[good idea to remove any other usb devices as they can and sometimse do interfere with the packet data sending/receiving]
Click the button "replace driver" and let heimdall download/install the drivers. {libusb0 is the one that worked for me, but try another if it dont for you, there are three}
Run Heimdall-Frontend.exe as admin
Files provided To Flash Your Tab with
**\TheCollective-StockRooted-sch-i800.tar.gz >--TheStockRooted 2.3.5 that came on your tab.
**\tools-resources\HumberOS\heimdall-uses
boot.img >-- a CM10.1 kernel with TWRP for sch-i800
recovery.bin >-- CM10.1 twrp for sch-i800
if you need the pit file --> my-sch-i800.pit [extract it from the stock tar gz]
Ok, Let's get to flashing over the files and getting your tab back to normal.
1: Connect your tab to your PC
2: Launch your tab into download as it is already connected to your PC.*(Do this by holding the volume down and pushing the power button)
3: Go in to the folder "Heimdall" and start " heimdall-frontend.exe" as ADMIN
4: Set up the file you are about to LoadPackage tab. [It should look something like image.]
5: After you have the file in place click load, it will change tab to flash with files listed, simply click start to flash.
ALWAYS make sure your battery is sufficiently charged or you will have MAJOR problems.
Tab should boot. [if not factory data reset in recovery e3 and reboot]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After this is should be just like you took it out of the box, and already rooted.
Hope this helps!

If you wish to unroot I've included SuperOneClick shortfuse.
just hit unroot
If you wish to install CM or other AOSP rom here is some helpfull info.
Heimdall command line

Press Power + VolDown untill you get the Download screen or PC <–> Tab screen.
on PC open CMD prompt in the folder of Heimdall and place boot image in same folder
type this command string:
Code:
heimdall flash --kernel boot.img --recovery boot.img
Or just replace boot.img inside the ROM ZIP with your desired kernel.
*TIPS
In case you get any strange symptoms.
Flash full TheCollective-StockRooted-sch-i800.tar.gz (with repartition) via Heimdall.
Flash the Kernel included in the package using the heimdall command above.
Boot directly into CwM Recovery, holding Power + VolUp.
Flash CM10.1 ROM, if it reboots by itself repeat the step above.
If you want Google’s stuff, flash latest GApps for Android 4.2.2.
Only Reboot after everything.
Wrong MAC? Wrong IMEI? Try restoring files from /sdcard/backup/efs*/* to /efs/. If you don’t have a backup, then start over with FULL Restock, and next time save your backup/efs folders, which are created everytime you install CM10.1.
Market problems? Clear Google Services Framework data and reboot.
No touch? That means you got the wrong kernel installed. A couple of builds had problems identifying the exact model. Just flash your kernel through recovery or heimdall / odin.
No boot? Stuck at the SAMSUNG logo? Flash the correct kernel using Download Mode using heimdall!
Deep Sleep not kicking in? Try wiping cLock’s data or freezing / removing it (com.cyanogenmod.lockclock).

Appreciate the thread! Is it possible to get a mirror though? The current host keeps cutting me off whenever I try to download the file... Can't make it past 200MB no matter what I try; other files download fine.

Going through the whole process but "Heimdall.exe" stopped working EVERY time I press start. Any ideas?

I had the some problem. Tried it at work with FF, Chrome, and Free Download Manager and all would fail at some point after about 2/3 done.
Came home and tried and got it first try.

Perhaps bad DL.
Make sure you follow all instruction.
Don't skip any steps.
Don't forget to have the correct ms c++ redist istalled.

Just a question. Every time I boot to recovery <3e>, and try to wipe data, I get the following:
E:failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
E:install_application_for_customer: Can't mount /data
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions​
Could this have anything to do with why I'm not able to get out of my bootloop?

Yes. I had same issue on my captivate trying to restore stock from a cm7
To fix I had to flash in the kernel and recovery from cm and in cwm under advance mounts format data. Back then on that device speedmod kernel allowed users to select format method (fat32/ext4/etc)
But also hemidall should format with the repartition. But that is assuming it can read and mount the partition.
You can use this package but instead of flashing the ROM package,
Load the pit and load only the kernel and recovery
Then boot into cwm and mount and format data (might as well while your at it mount and format system, and cache)

I did try this but I still get the crash of heimdall.
Also what does "mount and format data" mean? I can format data, system and cache but I don't see "mount" at all.

The Collective DL Fails
So I am trying to download the package that is for this which would be most helpful for me as I'm trying to help out my pastors wife with her Galaxy Tab, I started the download and it got all the way up to 144MB and quit, and file won't work.
Is there somewhere else that you can put it so we can try downloading from there? Can I give you my dropbox and you can drop it in there?
Again just to say I don't have a problem with HEIMDALL I have a problem downloading your link for the files needed for the flash.
I would really like to try to get this working for her as I've been looking around for a solution for this thing for about 2wks already and its been blowing my mind.
So we need the DL fixed so we can download the Collective Package.
Thanks again for the help and great write-up.

No 3G with alroger's latest kernel
I guess this is a pretty common issue for CDMA user's. alroger's download page says to copy the modem.bin to the /radio. I downloaded the original verizon modem binaries for my sch-i800 but I don't see a /radio folder. In the about tablet section, baseband is unknown. I just created a radio folder on the root of the tablet and renamed my download modem.bin and stuck it in there. I'm about to reflash the just the kernel but I'm pretty sure that's not how it works. So how do I get my radio/modem back and get 3g working with this kernel? cafe-ti.blog.br/1956~cm10-1-sgt7-p1000.html

Easiest way is to tar the modem.bin and Odin it into the device.
Load it into the phone slot

Help to download...
Hi... I have tried many times to download the package (TheCollective-RootedStock-Odin-sch-i800.tar.md5) but I can not , the download starts fine, but not complete!.
If you could upload to another server like 4shared, mediafire, dropbox... I would be very grateful..

Still not working as it should
So I have downloaded the package finally and I Have done all the steps according to your writeup. Still doesn't give me a fresh startup on the tablet, I still get many error popups and also all my apps are still there.
What could I be doing wrong? Could there be something wrong with the tablet?
Any help on this would be great, as I'm dumbfounded on this already.
Thank You

General [GUIDE][UNBRICK] Realme 8 Unbrick/Upgrade/Downgrade [RMX3085]

Hello everyone! So after the new MediaTek DAA and SLA protection bypasses you can find GitHub repo of here , using the bypass we are able to use SPFlash Tool, here is a guide how you can do it! This guide is for RMX3085 (Realme 8) ONLY. DON'T DO ANY OF THESE IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING ELSE!
ALWAYS USE DOWNLOAD ONLY MODE OF SP FLASH TOOL.
DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING RELATED TO FORMAT ON SP FLASH TOOL! (IT'S WRITTEN EVERYWHERE, YOU WILL LOSE YOUR IMEIS IF YOU USE FORMAT ALL + DOWNLOAD. YOU ARE SAFE IF YOU USE DOWNLOAD ONLY.)
Requirements:
PC or Laptop
Internet connection
Realme 8
USB cable
Windows Method
Requirements:
Bypass Tools Pack - (DRIVER AND BYPASS FILES)
SP Flash Tool
Decrypted OFP (OPPO FIRMWARE PACKAGE) :
Indian
A.22 (Indian) - GDrive
A.24 (Indian) - GDrive
A.26 (Indian) - Gdrive
C.05 (Indian) - GDrive
C.09 (Indian) - GDrive
C.11 (Indian) - GDrive
Global
A.22 (Global) - GDrive
A.24 (Global) - GDrive
A.26 (Global) - GDrive
Install Python from Windows Store
libusb-win32 - Having Issues? Use this.
Get usbdk installer (.msi) from here and install it
Steps:
1) Extract the zip
2) Go to driver folder, find the .inf file right click and press install.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3) Download this file and install it, after installing power off phone and connect to pc while holding Vol+- (don't leave the buttons after connecting) . You might need this driver as well if it's not detected.
4) Press next, connect your device to PC while holding Vol+- buttons (your device needs to be powered off, and don't leave the buttons) and you will see the mtkdriver down below. Install it.
5) Choose MediaTek USB Port and install it.
6) Then run the brom.bat under Bypass folder.
7) Now power off the phone and connect the phone while holding volume + and - (Don't leave the buttons until the bypass is done)
8) After the above step Go into Flash Tool folder and open the SPFlash tool go to Options>Option
9) Click on Connections and select UART and set Baud Rate to 921600
10) After that choose scatter file and also if not set, set your download-agent. You don't need to select auth file as authorization is disabled. Once you do it, it should look like this. ALWAYS MAKE SURE DOWNLOAD ONLY MODE IS SELECTED! DON'T SELECT OTHER MODES!
Select all the Partitions except opporeserve2 and cdt_engineering. otherwise you will get errors.
*11) If you want to flash super.img partition also then download this scatter.txt file and replace it with the another scatter file which is present in the decrypted firmware folder. After that select it again in sp flash tool.
Again Make SURE "Download Only" is selected. Don't select ANYTHING ELSE! You will lose your IMEIs, Serial Numbers, Capability of Hardware Attestation etc. if you choose "Format data + Download" make SURE you selected "Download Only".
Now, you can start downloading with the button and after that a checkmark will appear. You can reboot your phone and use it like before now! All your userdata will (inevitably) be cleared!
After flashing it should look like this. Download has been complete. Enjoy!
"Congrats Now your Realme 8 is Unbricked "

If you face any issues write them down below...

Some people having this problem so I want to add one more thing to the guide. If you are not having any issues related to boot then don't follow these steps.
After waiting more then 10 minutes, if it doesn't boot up/bootloop. Or shows DM-Verity corrupt error then do this.
1) Try boot into stock recovery by pressing volume up + power button after that when your screen flashes quickly unpress buttons.
2) Now press volume down + power button, by pressing these you will boot into stock recovery.
3) Go to format option and do a full format.
4) Your phone will definitely boot up after that.

Hi
I would like to ask how you obtained the system for realme 8 in the latest version.
Can you download somehow from your device?

Realme 8 Firmware (RMX3085) - Realme Firmware
Realme 8 Firmware RMX3085 Official Flash File (Stock ROM). flash your phone using realme flashtool or MSM Download tool.
realmefirmware.com

if "Brick" occured in rooting process - then can recovery be done without data loss :
Prerequisite: firmware version on the body must the same as downloaded "Decrypted OFP" (as example both is A.22 )
HowTo:
at step of SPFlashing (currently that is 10-th)
- check ONLY next partitions in SPFlash to restore :
PRELOADER RECOVERY VBMETA LK LK2 BOOT
... and NO any of other
(as thats only are touched by currently described rooting processes)

after recovery exist on every boot:
"dm-verify corrupted..."
how to get out of this message?
Reset with clearing data not helps ...

Wait for 10mins if it didn't boot then.
Format with mtk client
python mtk e metadata,userdata,md_udc

that boots ... BUT
on every boot thet alerts about "corruption"
ok cleared partitions with python...
still the same alert ...

Try booting into stock recovery and format from there

Ok. format from recovery menu solves ...
now that boots normally =
- no alert
-no boot allowing by pressing key required
good behaviour to see when boot subsystem altered, as at every boot alerted and required to press longer power button to confirm/allow starting ...
interesting, that is something new on mine (device versions) or overall ...

I have it anyway. have you solved it yet? Do I understand correctly?

after doing the insstruction, mine bootlooping and enters recovery mode

I Think that is not so solvable /possible if someone decode debug and finds /... but that is quite acceptable for rooting /if you don't want to make illegal spionage and so on/ ... also as if your device will be rooted by someone - you will see alert of changes on boot ... that is good ...
if you are rooted - you must be alerted .
but if you will going to stock rom and have protection - then flashing "stock" (surely without 3 partitions that IMEI-and-so-on-related ) and then format from recovery menu helps return to "factory" operation

There should be some mistake in your process. Because this guide is working and tested by many people.

Does global firmware have realme dialer instead of google dialer?
Can I flash Global firmware my indian device?

on your firmware package, it does not flashes super.img by default. Because in scatter file
- partition_index: SYS48
partition_name: super
file_name: super.img
is_download: false
changing false to true helps fixing destroyed super partition
