Hi,
Okay so I have a Galaxy Ace S5830. It was rooted etc with no problems. I was just running the stock ROM (Koodo) that it came with.
Earlier I took a backup with CWM, then I used ODIN to flash a different ROM that I got from a different thread. However this ROM was not working well for me, the network connection kept winking in and out, so I wanted to go back to my stock ROM.
I got the stock firmware from SamFirmware using my model + country. I then used ODIN to flash the stock ROM.
When I boot after doing this, I go into a bootloop between the Koodo splash screen and the glowing SAMSUNG logo.
To hopefully remedy this, I used CWM to restore the backup I had taken previously.
However, when I boot after doing this, there is no loop, the phone simply sits at a screen with a black background that says Samsung GALAXY Ace GT-S5830D in white lettering. I have left it for a substantial amount of time and nothing changes.
I have read some other threads and they all suggest re-flashing stock rom with ODIN which I have done to the same result. So at this point the firmware will not fully boot, whether or not I have restored the backup.
Any help in fixing this will be appreciated! I'm stuck and I don't know what to do at this point, other than try some other firmwares.
Thanks!
Update:
Thanks to ver3go I was able to get back to stock rom + factory settings. the bootloop issue has been resolved.
HOWEVER,
when I load from the backup I made with CWM, it freezes forever at the black + white samsung galaxy ace screen.
Any solutions would be great. Though it's not a huge issue, it would be nice to not have to re-install all my apps and reconfigure my phone

Before restoring your back up, do 3 the wipes and then restore your backup

All,
I had rooted a Captivate recently for a friend and installed CM7. After about a week, my friend decided to go back to stock. Prior to rooting, I made a backup of his stock rom just in case. I then showed him how to restore via Clockwork if need be. Tonight he came in to work and wanted to restore to stock, now he is stuck with a boot-looping Captivate. Now the phone sits at the AT&T World Phone splash screen. I've tried and tried all night to get the phone in DL mode so that I can use the One-Click ODIN restore but to no avail. I can't seem to get the phone in DL mode no matter what I try. Whenever I attempt, the phone simply reboots to the AT&T splash. Please assist if available.
P.S. When I plug the phone into any USB I get a circle (reminiscent of the Android loading spinner) in the center of the screen.
Assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

thats not how clockwork backups work...those are to restore your set up to the way you had it once you flash the rom it was backed up from thats why hes looping. you would odin back to stock THEN restore and it would be like he never flashed anything at all.
build/buy a jig that'll for sure get you int download mode.
Loop
I'm getting that same loop screen. What I did was use odin to restore my captivate back to factory because the 2.2 update wouldn't allow me superuser permission. After it was back to factory I rooted with super one click. It was successful but when i went to reboot the att world screen looped.
Help please
superoneclick works fine on 2.2.........you had no reason to go back to 2.1
Hi Guys.
I am pretty new here but I think you're the only ones who can help me.
I have tried to flash my S5570 to 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 from 2.2.1 via Odin.
Although the flashing always ends with PASS the phone cannot boot properly. During flashing the loop gets to screen highlight and after few seconds the boot repeats itself. When I hard reset it by replacing the battery the loop gets to samsung logo and the story repeats itself. Luckly Downloading mode is still accessible and I am able to return to 2.2.1 at anytime.
Can you help me on this one.

Wipe data from stock recovery. You don't need to worry, this is normal.
Wipe data from stock rom or re flash stock rom gb from odin
I flashed Virginity Rom.
Afterwards my phone infinitely keeps coming up with the 'Samsung Galaxy SIII Mini I8190T.'
I think the problem was when I chose the virginity setting to keep default bootscreen.
I can access Download Mode/Odin Mode but I can't access recovery.
I have a backup but as I said, No recovery so I cant restore.
I have CWM Touch Recovery if that helps.
I tried flashing PAC Android with Odin but that didn't work.
What do I do?
I am willing to completely refresh my phone, backups and all It doesn't matter.
I just can't lose this phone!
Update: I flashed a file called 'PARAM_I8190.tar.md5' and now it doesn't even show the Samsung Galaxy Screen.
It mainly just shows up with the Downloading... Screen sometimes distorted.|

i think you should flash official stock rom for you to revive your phone
Yesterday, i was using my s3 when i thought of installing a new rom, when i installed cwm using odin, i couldnt factory reset since it just stopped laoding and paused. then i tried backing up to see if that works but that didnt work either, so i installed philz touch as an alternate but same results. But then i just *yolo* and installed the rom without resetting and it got stuck the the 2nd booting screen where the samsung sign appears and glows with a blue light. I tried to do everything i can but nothing worked. Plz help Admins if u can, my warranty ran out so plzzzzzzzzz, i beg u:crying::crying:
I hope someone can help me.
I have an old galaxy note GT-N7000 which I still use and it’s rooted. Recently it has been giving me issues so I decided to do a factory reset which I thought would just fix everything. However, it just got stuck on the Samsung Galaxy note screen. It also only boots into download mode, not recovery mode & I have tried all the tricks and still it will not boot to the home screen.
I have downloaded a stock N7000 stock rom to flash back to stock, the Jodin program, including the pit file, but as soon as it connects and tells me to press start, all it says is running but does nothing. It will not allow me to flash anything.
Any idea why it’s stuck on the boot screen and how can I fix this? Should I have wiped something before doing a factory reset, as I don’t have a clue. Also if it’s best that I put a latest rom on it, I’ll be cool with it, as long as I can get it working again
Cheers for any help guys...
Thanks
