Hi!
I've installed the MIUI ROM a few days ago. Everything looked good.
Today went to install the Elemental kernel.
Downloaded zip, went into recovery, installed from there, went through all the options and then reboot. Never booted again.
It just stays with the screen on, all black for more than 10min (as long as I waited).
It does boot into recovery though.
What is wrong and how can I fix this?
Thanks
Flash the stock kernel or reflash the rom
It's a prob of the kernel, you flashed a sense kernel on an cm rom..

you flashed a sense kernel on a CM based rom that's the problem .. said it once ill say it again .... SLOW DOWN AND READ before you screw your phone up
Damn!
I've been told I could do this without a problem.
So what do I do now? Reinstall the ROM?
That would stay with the Elemental kernel and the ROM?
Thanks!
Who ever to you that was flipping yanking your chain... YEA reflash the MIUI rom
Sent from my METAL PHONE not some plastic phone bloated phone
Or you can just extract the boot.img from the rom and flash it separately if you don't want to flash the whole thing again
Yup. That worked!
So you're telling me I wont be able to have the benefits of Elemental while using this ROM?
Unfortunately not at the moment, unless he makes an MIUI compatible kernel

So first i'll explain whats the problem.
I went from Slim ICS to stock android 2.3.5 XXJVT. After that I flashed the rooted kernel via Odin, including CWM.
So I got to the recovery and wiped everything and flashed the a cm9 nightly, this was in the instructions SlimICS If coming from stock GB. While installing it stopped after a few seconds and rebooted to recovery where a few lines came up amd rebooted again, alot of red letters flashed between the reboots and it kept rebooting.
I have tried other roms with a similar result:
-After install, comes to kernel loading screen reboots straight into recovery.
-Tried infinitum, succesfully installed actually started OS but got an error acreen in android itself, saying something about encryption or something (forgot it).
I know this is a long story but i've been trying to flash ics again for a lot of hours with a lot of fixes but nothing succesfull.
I hope you guys know more then me. If you need more info please ask, im pretty issed of by phone right now.
Thanks
On I9000
Pull out the battery.put back in.go to recovery and flash again.reboot.
It's does this because u need to be on an ics kernel for it to flash the rom properly.it's perfectly normal.don't worry
It only happens when upgrading the os or flashing cm9 the FIRST time

I have had my captivate for a while now and I have had a few problems with flashing Cyanogen based Roms since I went to CM7 then back to stock a while back.
I had CM7 running fine and went up to CM9 for months. I just recently went to REMics and had a problem with the sound and at the same time I had problems with my power button I the flashed to Paranoid Android for a few hours and was driving around so I took my phone to the AT&T warranty center to see about them replacing it and im out of warranty so I had them flash it to stock now I cant get my phone to CM7 I can get it to run Serendipity just fine but no CM7 can someone PLEASE help? It seems like I need to COMPLETELY clear the phone of all old rom data. Any solutions?
Try using one of these Stock I897UCKK4 Android 2.3.5 One Clicks and then flash the KK4 Corn Kernel version 7.0A to get the CWM Recovery u need to move on to what you are wanting to flash per that Rom's specific install instructions.
Done that
I have put my phone back to stock KK4 with and without bootloader. I had this problem before when I was going to CM7 the second time. Its just getting SO annoying now. Thanks though!
I forgot to say that when I go to flash the rom through CWM it starts reboots the phone the samsung Cyanogen screen comes up flashes onces then goes into CWM flashes a few things quickly and the last image I see is the "dead" androind laying on its back with the sign aboveits open front door.
I'm starting to think there is no help. Maybe I can trade my friend my captivate for his.
Have you tried flashing CM7 again after you see that CWM screen? I've always had to flash CM7 twice for it to take - once to get the MTD setup in place, a second time to actually flash the rom. You'll have to hold down V+/V-/Power to get to recovery while it's looping, but once it's there, try flashing CM7 again.

I have tried with cm9 but not 7. I will try that once I get sick of Serendipity. I just set everything back up on this rom and installed my apps so I will wait a few more days.
Thanks You!
Hi I was running Helly Bean and I was experiencing some lag that i couldnt fix so i decided it was time to start fresh (phone was getting to be a mess anyways) so i formatted my phone and one-click to a stock rom. (rogers i896 2.3.3 with bootloader). I used heimdell to flash kernel with recovery, then flashed devil kernel, reboot recovery, then flashed helly bean as per thread instruction and my phone kept booting into recovery only. So i tried to start over 2 more times with the same results, I even tried to flash CM9 stable release and it yielded the same results.
Can anyone shed some light as to what i messed up? My only option now is to use stock app since i cant seem to get anything else to work...(pleas dont make me go back to touchwiz)
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks.
PS phone works fine on stock rom
This happened to me once... I think it has to do with repartitioning and Devil kernel. If you flash devil first, it seems that something is telling the CM installer that the partitions are all good to go, even though it is clearly not the case. So use heimdall to flash the first kernel, and go straight to the ROM install, making sure to flash the ROM a second time after it reboots into the new recovery.

Thanks, works first time!!! Looks like im going to have IMEI problems but thats another battle lol
odin to stock 2.3.6, charge to 100%, then go to recovery, 4w, 2f, then install helly bean.
just went thru this last week.... accidentally flashed incorrect ROM to Captivate and phone started acting wiered.
Then came to know i have the wrong bootloaders and kernel. Just installed GB bootloaders and phone started booting to recovery.
then tried to flash ics rom and soft bricked my phone.
Used the "hold both volume buttons and plugin the USB cable to computer" to get into download. then ODIN to stock GB. then used KKroot and then flashed Slim ICS. Now the phone works great.
Firstly, I must say that bought my i9000 with Mackay rom (4.1.2 then) on it, and that I was very satisfied with it. Since then, I've changed several roms on my SGS.
But, I've been using a new 4.0.1 Mackay KK rom, and still not completely satisfied with some missing options, so I wanted to go back to JB, but I came across some issues. I did exactly how the developer wrote, but no luck. I've been trying to install rom with twrp, but it fails. OK, the developer mentioned it could happen, so I tried to flash again, as said, but still no luck. After that, I tried to flash old kernel, the one for JB, but failed again. TWRP now won't flash anything. Just to mention, the phone isn't bricked. I can power it up, and it works fine.
How can i flash back to old kernel, so I could flash JB again? Or, there is some trick to flash back to JB with kernel 0.600?
Thank U in advance,
filipidis
EDIT: I succeeded in going back to JB. I was somehow able to flash cyancore kernel over TWRP. Then I flashed it again with Mackay kernel, and flashed JB 4.3.
Now, waiting for stable version of Mackay KK.
Hello everyone!
I installed the liquid smooth custom rom yesterday, and it worked fine! I also tried it with the OC kernel. Was a bit of a mistake...
Now, the rom is unstable with the OC kernel on my device, but that's not really my problem.
The issue is that i can't enter recovery! I checked with CWM manager and TWRP and CWM recovery are avaliable, and i can activate them both in the app, but i can't enter the recovery.
Tried hardware buttons(vol up + home + power), rebooting from the app(cwm manager), rebooting from the power menu (i have the reboot into recovery option) but i can't get into the recovery.
It's quite annoying because the phone is unstable and the only option is odin it to stock rom and temp cwm it back to where i was, but that seems a very tough job... (last time it took me over 2 hours... don't know why but it kept failing, did work eventually...) I do have backups, one made with CWM from current rom with no-oc kernel (the stable one).
And i have another custom rom that i backed up with TWRP. Don't know if i can do something with them...
I can do stuff on the phone, so even with the unstable-ness i can do things if needed.
i am trying to get into recovery with terminal, but wifi is ruined so getting the phone working long enough to download it via mobile data, quite difficult... But i keep trying.
edit: tried terminal, no success
Does anyone has an idea how i can get recovery working again?

Install Frapetis Universal Kernel Flasher and flash your non-OC kernel.

Tried that, but UKF says device unsupported, don't know why... I have used it before and it worked then.
Any other options?
I got it fixed. But tbh i still don't understand how. I flashed JB stock with odin and when it rebooted, i got automaticly into CWM weirdly enough... Wasn't going to waste my maybe only chance so i flashed the custom rom, wiped everything again, reboot, went again automaticly into CWM. anyway i was third time lucky and it booted as it should. Everything is working now! Anyway thanks for trying to help.
