Downgrade to 2.1???

is it possible to downgrade back to 2.1 because my phone gets stuck on startup with the S-logo and then vibrates and then turns off???
can someone help?
Yes I can, I had the same problem, reflash all over again. Then 2.2 works.

If you don't have the 3 button combo, you're screwed.
One of the very first warnings:
IF YOUR PHONE DOESNT SUPPORT 3-BUTTON RECOVERY/DOWNLOAD-MODE, DONT FLASH! IF YOU DID, GET A NEW SGS!

You most likely have to reset the factory settings from Recovery, and without the 3 button combo, you can't.

so the only thing i can do is call samsung and lie that is a waranty issue?
You can try the method listed here. I have not tried it, but it couldn';t hurt to give it a shot.

You may try it when the phone is just booted, be quickly. My previous phone has 3 button combo disable and I did so.
But it is better to get replacement for a new phone with 3 button combo enable, as I did.

Hard brick?
If so, sending it to a Samsung Center is your best bet.

I experience that too last 6months to be exact, as long as you can access download mode and it is readable by your laptop/computer you can fix it, download any ONE PACKAGE stock room in firmware.com then flash it via Odin after that process finish
go to cwm
just power button + home button
then reset and wipe
please feedback as soon as you do my tips thanks!
goodluck! :good::good:

Blank Screen
I installed the wrong cwm on mine and when I tried to boot into recovery all I got was a blank screen, so I waited for a bit, then pulled the battery, turned phone on and nothing but a blank screen, tried getting into DL mode and nothing, but when I plug it into the PC, it wants to recognize as a modem instead. I think its toast, I even made a jig, tried getting into DL mode and nothing, the phone is on just no screen, it charges the battery when plugged into usb port but nothing on the screen. It had worked until I flashed cwm on it...
go to stock recovery
why don't you just enter into stock recovery and factory reset the phone , you can also flash the stock rom with odin after puting your phone in download mode . to go to recovery vol+ and vol- and power on the phone at te same time
Didn't you read? He has neither download nor recovery mode.

Samsung Galaxy 5 "recovery-reboot loop?"

Dear people,
So i tried flashing my android phone with rashr and installing Android 6.0 marshmallow, so when i went into rashr and pressed "reboot into recovery mode on boot"
it keeps booting into recovery mode, although i have a black screen when it's in recovery mode and i can tell that it's on because the phone gets warmer the longer it's on.
I've honestly tried everything on the Internet, i think i even got some viruses on my computer now, is there anything i can do?
Or am i screwed? ;c
Thanks,
Alanaaya

Immediately press home, volume down and power when you put the battery in. Try that.
