[Q] HELP! i have an infinite boot loop on my SGS - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried installing a ROM by factory formatting and cache formatting in CWM and then installing the ROM on install zip from sd card. In 1 second after attempting to install this ROM, CWM crashed and i wasnt able to use CWM again. So after googling how to 'unbrick' my SGS i found some method - flashing a stock ROM using downloading mode (middle button, Volume down, power button) then using ODIN and firmware from Sammobile. I tried this and NOW i get a bootloop and in in Android system recovery <3e>

Make sure that you use a complete rom

USB Jig will get the phone into download mode
Does your phone turn on? If so you could try mobile odin from the play store. I've never used it but it might work for you.

Try a different stock ROM any will do maybe even Darky's 10.2 That helped me when i had a similar issue.
If that fails the internal memory could have failed....
Nice!!!
finally installed Extraordinary 9.1. very smuth. amazing !!!
thanks for the help.
P.S. when trying to use the jig on sg i9000 it should be exactly 301k!!!!!!!!!!!!
i bought resistors for 300k. one was 309.1k and another 303.5k. it didnt worked!!!
i used 6 resistors in parallel to get 301.1k only then i got into download mod.

hi mate.
your problem is that you're trying to run a gingerbread rom, while you have an ICS/JB bootloader. the two use an entirely different partition scheme, so it's not finding the storage when it tries to access it. it seems to be a common occurrence, lots of people aren't aware that the two differ, when they're even aware that bootloaders exist.
if you look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37836094&postcount=2 , you'll find the solution i gave someone else that had that problem the other day.
to succesfuly downgrade from cm10 to stock GB you have to flash 3-file ROM with pit512 and re-partition checked.

[Q] Help

Hi, until yesterday I had my gt-i9000: cm-10.1-20130419-Nightly-galaxysmtd.
I wanted to go back to a stock rom, all well and good, after I installed a 2.3.6 with Odin...
I received the following messages on phone screen.

And the phone remains in a boot loop...
I added with Odin a dbdata a file on pda tab and the phone has started, but still moves slowly and sometimes freezes.
I missed something?
I have to install with Odin, once the stock rom?
Thank's
Try ROM which have three files, plus check repartition.

[Q] Reinstalling stock firmware - stuck in boot loop

I had my rooted Galaxy S running well on CyanogenMod 10.1, but wanted to unroot so as to use my bank's app. While flashing Android 2.3.6 with Odin 1.87, I got various error messages and the phone boot looped. I tried to follow the instructions here , but the stock ROM I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA.zip doesn't seem to be available now. Installing Semaphore CWM went OK, but of course the stock ROM has overwritten that. The stock recovery says:
E: failed to mount /dbdata (Invalid argument)
Copying media files...
E:failed to mount /dbdata (File exists)
E:cope_dbdatamedia:Can't mount /dbdata
your storage not prepared yet. Please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
What stock ROM should I use that will deal with this? Or is there another solution?

You should factory reset and wipe cache and dalvik cache partitions. If else fails, try flashing a different stock ROM.

Thanks guys. Meanwhile I managed to track down the XXJVU ROM and now have the phone up and running again on Cyanogenmod 10.2.1. But despite wiping cache and Dalvik cache, and factory resetting, it is still rooted! There is no Superuser app but #Superuser is still in the settings menu, and my bank's app reports that it won't work because the phone is rooted. Very odd. I suppose I'll have to try a different stock ROM, but why doesn't root disappear when flashing a stock ROM?
