Hi guys,
so I was trying to sell my SGS i9000 and I failed. Why? Because I kept getting 'Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped'. I tried everything I could find, clearing particular caches, wiping overall cache and dalvik, factory reset, even reflashed the ROM. Nothing has changed.
I believe it has something to do with the thing that I had accidentaly deleted 'media' folder (actually, cut it and pasted on the desktop, so I copied it back right away). Now the gallery doesn't work, the camera just as well and overall system can't boot every time. (If I press and hold the power button, it starts booting and gets stuck at Slim logo, but when I take the battery out after getting stuck, it boots just fine).
Are there any other solutions?
I'm on Slim Bean official build 7. Not sure which Sema kernel they've used, because I can't download or install anything as well.

I always format system before flashing, and yes, flashing stock firmware via odin helped, but I got bricked on the first try which scared the crap out of me.

Well, what happened?
I am stuck on the boot screen as well.
Did you performed Full Wipe on ICS Stock Rom ? If so then its unfortunate to say your note might be bricked.
I advise u stop flashing stuff when you clearly don't know what your doing.

It is not a good sign. Looks like a case of superbrick to me due to emmc bug. Probably will need repartition with custom pit or adb.

+1, you're bricked. Either repartition or claim replacement motherboard.

Hi guys,
I normally try and work this stuff out for myself (as you can tell by my join date and my post count) but this has me stumped..
I was attempting to change ICS rome and somewhere in the process something went wrong...
After many unsuccessful attempts of flashing, stock ICS & GB, Abyss.. I checked the partions for errors and found the actual size of p-10 was different than the reported size by 1kb.
So, tried the e2fsck fix- it reported that it had corrected some errors.. I tried flashing again and agin- no success.
I then deleted the partitions, recreated them and reformatted in CWM. ADB reports no errors on any partition. When I try to load an ICS rom, it installs then hangs when it gets to the screen where you select the language.
I can successfully install a GB rom, but after a couple of minutes I start getting errors- then the affected app closes.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Which ics rom were you on originally before you tried flashing to which ics rom? Did you perform any wipes while on ics? Does sound like you have a good understanding of emmc bug and partitioning so forgive me if this all seems mundane.

Download emmc app from market and perform a memory test... Get a rooted gb rom as it needs root access.. And skip all kinds of setup at startup once you flash the gb(rooted) rom

I was on N7000XXLRB, Kernel Version 3.0.15-N7000XXLRG, and Build number IMM76D.XXLRG. Tried to go to AlBa rom, flashed Abyss, wiped cache/data in the CWM recovery and flashed the rom in CWM recovery...
I can successfully flash a stock GB rom with PC Odin, but it hangs on the boot screen( so I can't install dmmc test).
I have tried everything I can think of, just waiting on a jig to come in the mail so I can reset my counter for warranty
If you find a solution please post it.
I think i have the same problem. I posted it in general ( can anybody move it over here? I think this was wrong. Sorry i panicked. )
It's called permantly rebooting after flashing cm9.
I pledge for a solution.

I have tried everything I can think of. The Odin flash does'nt spit out an error... I can flash anything successfully but nothing actually boots?
I keep having to flash my backup because every time I flash a script or have to force reboot my phone, when the phone boots everything force closes and the phone is totally unusable. Any help on how to solve this would be very much appreciated :thumbup::thumbup::banghead:

I've tried that mate. I've deleted all backups and done fresh installs of a few different roms, but to no avail. It's got to the point that I have to keep updating my backups because the phone becomes unusable so often

If nothing helps then you can try this as the last option. You can reflash your firmware via Odin then custom recovery after rooting your phone and finally the custom rom you are using.

How exactly you perform clean install? And what scripts you flash?
Try going back to a stock ROM release, then flash CWM via ODIN and from there, a rom of your choice

I flashed SlaidyBoostV2.3, it made my phone completely unusable. I flashed the Beats script too, and that had the same effect.
I perform a clean install by wiping data and cache/dalvik. Then I flash the rom and repeat the wiping process. Am I doing something wrong?

I'm having trouble getting the stock firmware for my phone. It says the firmware is for SIM unlocked phones, and my phone is locked to one network. Looks like I'm gonna have to get my phone unlocked. I'll do this as a last resort if I can't find a solution.

Hi!
So i figured i wanted to get of the faulty ics leak in order to keep my phone safe, but it seems I was able to do the exact oppsite...
I will try to make a detailed overview of what I did, here we go.
I was using Stunner on CLP5. Followed this guide to do the downgrade:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jr3DDEh8vyc&list=UUlVIlK8QHZ2PFkXF97bA0lg&index=5&feature=plcp
What i did:
Flashed the Abyss kernel - rebooted
Wiped with the new recovery
Flashed rocketrom
Got stuck on bootloop. (I should've probably done another wipe here, am i right? )
After flashing Rocketrom, I once again got a new recovery, I figured I was on a safe kernel and recovery now so instead of trying wiping or a different rom, I was stupid enough to do a restore of a backup of a stock rom with root I had from December when i bought the phone.
This made everything even worse, my battery drained and I was unable to charge my phone through USB or 220v. Luckily I got my friend to charge my battery (same phone)
Booting up my phone agian, I was no longer able to acess recovery, but I still had acess to Download mode.
I flashed a stock GB rom successfully through PC Odin, and yet AGIAN I was stuck at bootloop. The file I flashed was a single .tar file. I didn't select update bootloader, should i try this? maybe re-ptartitioning?
I still have acess to download mode.
Has anyone got a clue how to fix this mess?
Thanks for all replies!

Please, pit partitioning seems to get thrown out there like smarties but imo should only ever be used as a very last resort as a lot can go wrong.
Have you tried wiping cache and dalvik? Sorts out reboots 99 percent of the time.

Solved the problem by downloading yet a another stock GB rom, this time with three files, instead of the one .tar file.

Hello i have a big problem..
There was a problem with a custom rom that i flashed and when i was connecting the phone to the pc it was taking too long to show me my internal memory etc. So i decided to do a clean flash from odin by flashing an original firmware for i9305.. The phone then stuck to the samsung logo! I reflash it but still the same. I even use re-partion and stills it reboots and stays at samsung logo screen i dont know what else to do?
Tried to go into recovery and factory reset / wipe cache?

lucky for me i flashed the recovery and i had atmy internal memory an old rom.. i flash it and the phone is working now thank god.. but i can understand why it did that.. i will not be able to flash an original firmware? and btw is still slow.. i connect it to pcamd takes time to open the internal memory and external..but at least it works
I have this problem when flashing through odin. Battery pull reset data clear cache always does the trick. I usually have to put back into download mode and then restart device from there. Worth trying.

Hey guys. Been around for a while and have never encounted this problem. I went to restore back to stock firmware after running a custom rom.. both 4.3... I added the firmware to odin. It failed before it started and rebooted th phone. Figured out that the firmware I downloaded must of been corrupt/incompletly downloaded.. stuck on samsung boot logo.. tried to restore a fresh complete rom but still stuck on boot logo.. is there something I can do to fix it other than sen it in.

You don't mention recovery .
Usual would be to format sdcard system data cache boot to download mode and flash stock rom .

After install, try pulling the battery during boot then boot into stock recovery and do a factory reset/data wipe.
