So , to begin with I had cyanogen mod 9.1 on my phone .
Please view this thread :
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948053
So according to that thread , my phone had 4 partitions and like one senior member said I tried using link2sd . It couldn't move files to sd card . But it had an option called create a link with sd card . That freed up some space so I started linking apps . Then android.comm.process popped up . I rebooted but my phone was then stuck on the loading screen . I started recovery and wiped my data . Then my phone got started again .
But the problem was that my phone still had those 4 partitions . So I decided to delete the sd card . I backup'ed my contents and then went to settings and wiped the sd card . I rebooted my phone . That's where the problem started .
My phone was getting stuck at the loading screen . I tried wiping cache , dalvik cache , data but to no avail and I couldn't mount the sd card or the sd card ext . In short , I couldn't access my phone .
I decided to install the stock rom again(Gingerbread official) . But that too failed , I am still stuck at the boot screen and the phone goes into a continuous loop of restart .
P.s My cwm was deleted automatically after installation of stock rom .
Edit : I was successful in installing cwm in my phone
Please help
If Gingerbread is installed successfully & ur phone bootloops, pull out the battery, re-insert it, goto recovery & do wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache. It's recommended to do this from stock recovery. I had success turning my phone on after wiping data/cache of stock rom from stock recovery. However, I did that again after immediately flashing CWM Recovery & it again goes into infinite bootloops. Better to use Stock Recovery for this.
Hope this helps!!...

Firstly if ur phone is down, u should use odin to flash the stock rom by going into download mode as it works in bootlooped devices(TESTED over 20 times) ,further since your problem is LINK2SD related u should have wiped ur phone by CWM.DONT WORRY if all else fails go to SAMSUNG SERVICE CENTRE.

Thank you sir . Had to flash stock rom again as I had installed cwm . But after that , I wiped data , cache and the phone started in stock rom ! .
Now a lot of work left to do :laugh:
I tried to flash CWM10 into my Samsung Galaxy I9000 Device And here's what happened:
I got into the CWM Recovery screen and chose install from sdcard (after a wipe data + wipe cache factory ofcourse).
Everything seem to go OK, no errors or special things, but when I restarted the device to boot into Android OS, it just came back to the CWM Recovery screen.
Since then, I have tried to install many other ROMS and the phone simply won't boot to android OS.
I have also noticed that usually after a successful ROM flash, folders are created in the internal SD card a thing which DID NOT happen this time.
The only difference that the new ROMS installation does is change the CWM Recovery version/Mod.
So basically, I am stuck at CWM Recovery Screen.
I am clueless and I will really appreciate any thing you can.
Any thoughts?

I don't know how much I can do to help you, but I have installed almost every rom there is available for the G1 on these forums, lol. You need to make sure your spl and radio are compatible with your rom, then you need to make sure if your going to setup for an ext partition and swap that you do and you switch to using them through the settings. Usually if your spl and radio are the wrong ones it will just boot loop and wont even get to where your at. I would also try formatting data/factory reset in the custom recovery, then clearing cache, then Dalvik cache, and wiping ext partition. Then going into sd partition and repairing it if it was already setup how you need it, then select power off and wait a second and reboot back into recovery. From there download Ohsaka wipe and flash it like you would a rom through the recovery, and then power off once more and reboot back into recovery. Assuming your sd card is not messed up, and your spl and radio are correct flash the rom again and hopefully you should be without errors.
Hey guys . I formatted /system and /boot when i entered CWM, i formatted cache and wiped data, and flashed a new rom, but when i hit "reboot" the phone restarted and the image with the writing "GALAXY S GT-i9000" apears and remains here, the phone won't boot anymore (i formatted /system and /boot because i thought the rom would install more freshly and would not apear problems, but i didn't need to format those :|).
I can't enter anymore in CWM Recovery (probably deleted because i formatted /system) or stock Recovery :| , the only thing that works is Download Mode. :\
What you recommend to do to fix this?
I saw the tutorial with fastboot to flash a new boot.img but i formatted the /system too. Most probably this will not fix anything. Another way i though of, is to flash via Odin a new Software but, after i formatted the /system and /boot i already installed a new rom but didn't booted anymore after reboot, although i think this will not be a problem because will overlay the already rom or something, but i'm not sure and i'm not sure i will find a software that i can flash through odin.
I don't have an external sd card, only internal memory that comes with the phone.
I also read that you can format /system if you don't reboot it after you format it and flash the rom. Could be the problem only the /boot that i formatted? I just need to flash a boot.img, if yes, how do i do it, with that softwares.
Thank you a lot in advance!

First of all i think that if you formatted the system and you didn't have an external sd card you might have wiped everything off your device . But lets try some options first. If you flashed a GB or JB rom most times the partition is changed and you have to remove the battery during the start-up (called a boot loop) this is normal. So try to reboot your device but when you have seen your samsung logo and such for a couple of minutes remove the battery, then replace the battery and start as if normal. If that doesn't solve your problem then you will have to put the phone in download mode and manually reflash your device using odin to stock then try all over again with your new rom. In the future, when you try using CWM again just do a factory reset, clear cache partition and under advanced clear dalvik cache then install from sd card, scool down and choose the rom then highlight it (volume up and down arrows) and install (power button).
You killed the bootloader of the phone, flash it back via Odin
Bootloaders here!

Galaxy S4 I9000
Hello, dont worry about your phone. Actually your phone has been bricked down and now you just have to unbrick your Galaxy S4. Check the galaxy s4 xda forum or just google the topic that "how to unbrick Galaxy s4 with your model no" and then follow the steps given in the tutorial. Thanks

Hi MihaDani93,
I'm having the exact same problem, I rooted with CF-Root, then cleared cache/dalvik and formatted system and rebooted on a stock 2.3.6 model i9000. It also stucks at the Samsung logo splash screen and freezes.
Only thing is I dont have the original stock ROM. I don't know how to reflash the phone.
Can you tell me in detail how you reflashed to stock with what files and where I can get those files from? PIT, PDA, PHONE and CSC md5 files and so on?
Thank you very much in advance!
Rob

Hi guys.. I need help on my Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini i8190.. I (think) did everything but nada..
Problem
My phone is always restarting, it gets in to the phone for a few seconds but then always restart.
It is rooted, with CWM Recovery touch 6.2.0.7.
What i have done
CWM Recovery
- Factory Reset
- Wipe Dalvik Cache
- Wipe Data
- Wipe Cache
*everytime i got into recovery mode, i noticed that the system is unmounted, is that normal?
In the recovery mode, it said that it was success but when i reboot system, still get the same latest phone condition with no change at all. It means the factory reset, and all the wiping did not work.
Odin
- Flash with stock ROM
- Install latest CWM recovery
- Install stock recovery
- Install Cyanogen
In the ODIN, it said that it was a success, still i get the same latest phone condition with no change at all. It means that all the process was not working.
I concluded that this might happens because the internal storage was very full, it has only 16 MB left (according to CWM when i try to backup on internal storage). And i think the only way is to factory reset, but as i mentioned before, i tried using CWM to factory reset but still go back to the latest phone condition.
I am looking forward for your help guys..
i have the same problem and tried also all the ways you mentioned.
this problem drives me crazy. please help guys
Have you tried using twrp instead, just a thought, & maybe clear out internal storage with file manager
