Hi everyone. I have a galaxy s M190S made by ANYCALL. I am in a great trouble. I tried to flash clockworkmod recovery via odin and i just bricked my phone. Now it always power on in recovery mode showing some error just like CANNOT READ FROM /DBDATA etc. Also I am unable to do a factory reset. I cannot get into odin mode through three keys combination it shows red letter error instead of ODIN MODE DOWNLOADING. Kindly give me some pieces of advice so that i can recover my phone.

I was trying to instal CM rom on Galaxy S using clockworkrecovery. Unfortunately, after installation and reboot, the phone gets stuck on CyanogenMod boot screen, then reboots again.
I understand I will need to get USB jig (no key combination, or usb cable trick worked).
Does that mean I will lose all my data on the internal SD card, like photos and TitanumBackup files?

You probably didn't install the CM exactly as described in the guide (opening post) for your device. Usually, it requires full wipe: wipe data/factory reset, wiping cache and wiping dalvik cache (in CWM recovery under "advanced"). Right after that you can install the CM zip, and after tge CM you should also install gapps for that CM version as apps for another android version won't be compatible. As you didn't write which CM you flash, I can not tell you which gapps do you need. If you can reach your CWM recovery now, just do as described and you will obtain the CM system.
You shouldn't lose your photos that way. If you want to install CM10.2 build, wait for next nightly as the nightlies between 24 and 26 Aug could format the internal SD, that is now sold and will be OK in the nightly build 27th and onwards.
After booting in your new CM system don't ever try to restore apps made with Titanium backup in another ROMs. It isn't compatible anymore with the CM. Install the apps simply again downloading them from play store.
If I could get into recovery mode, or even download mode, I wouldn't need USB jig (and I am still not even sure that will help).
The rom I was installing was cm-9.1.0-galaxysmtd.zip
I formatted system, boot, and I think everything else except for the sdcard.
Now the phone is stuck on CyanogenMod logo, which appears just after Galaxy S logo. Then it waits 10 seconds, and reboots again.
Is the phone and/or data on the sdcard gone?

It is impossible to enter recovery or download mode. Maybe USB Jig will let me enter download mode.
The question is - when I recover the phone using Odin in download mode (I think I need to select 'repartitioning' option?), will it erase internal sdcard?

Don't do it, it will screw up your phone! Don't EVER check re-partition if you don't flash also PIT file for your device!

Try this:
remove the battery
keep power button pressed for about 30sec without battery
use 3-button combo for recovery mode and insert battery again while all three buttons are pressed (acrobatic thing)
Is recovery mode accessible again?
BTW you will not lose your data (photos) unless you format SD card. Let us see how to unbrick your device now as first. If you didn't backup your data, you must live with possible loss if it happens.
One more thing: please quote my text if you want me to answer (or anybody else) or reply the post directly on the button "reply" just beyond because otherwise we don't get any notification so it was pure luck that I've found your new post here by browsing....

OK, then buy a jig for i9000 on eBay (it costs less than $2) and connect it according to the manual (I think the device must be turned off and after connecting it, you must wait for about 10sec until the download mode appears)
One important detail, but important nevertheless: is there still some juice in your battery? You must be sure of that, because maybe only battery is empty. Try to charge it by some friend who has the same telephone.
Let know later whats's up. Just have some patience now, mate.

Yes, battery is full. When I turn it on, I can see "Vibrant Samsung" logo, and shortly after "Galasy S syanogenmod" logo. Then it shuts down, and turns on again.

Wait a second, mate: Samsung Vibrant is SGH-T959 and we are talking about GT-i9000
Are you absolutely sure you have SGH-T959 and did you try to flash on it some build for GT-i9000 maybe? It is a non-excuse mistake and you will be lucky if anything revives your Samsung Vibrant now....

Your main concern seems to be with regards to data, now it all depends on which data, for instance flashing with or without partitioning, will only erase/change the Android folder on your SD card, so if your concern is with regards to app data, game data , sms, contacts, call log etc that will be gone by flashing.
Your camera images, music, video will not be touched and whatever other folders in your SD card will remain as is, if you had earlier CWM backup etc will be intact.
If you had debugging ON, and IF your phone can still power ON, you should try ADB push/pull to recover whatever you want first before flashing. meaning you can recover sms, phone contacts etc. so try powering ON your phone and connecting USB cable to PC while Odin3 is running on your PC. IF Odion3 detects, than you can try ADB method.

I am absolutely sure I have GT-I9000. So it says on the back cover, and under the battery. Plus, I am in europe where there is only I9000 version.

Sounds bad....
I think it is really the best you can do to try it with the jig now.
So you should get your device into the download mode. After that, we can say you're on safe side again. I would save now battery juice and wait until the jig is there.... (or make one yourself, it's easy and there are video tutorials how to do it)

Photos, music, stuff like that. I don't care for contacts. As for SMS, i have titanum backup on this sdcard, too.
I installed CWM through ODIN on my I9000 and booted into recovery mode through CWM and tried to flash two different ROMs but each time it hangs with the Semaphore flag and logo on the screen, after which it never boots and returns to the same screen. I can get it into download mode and I have reflashed a stock ROM and its back to normal.
Any guesses on how I can get around this? Thanks!

I've tried again, following the exact instructions. Install CWM, wipe the 3 data sources and install rom from sdcard. Within 2-3 seconds the phone reboots and arrives at the Semaphore screen. I've tried 3 times now and each time I have to reinstall a stock rom to get the phone alive again.
This depends on ROM you are flashing, you do not seem to tell us, what ROM you are flashing, you need to repeat the flashing in SD card , TWICE, and some may work only if ( after flashing) you go back into CWM recovery and flash again ..
Anyway this will help you solve problems

Sorry the rom is - pa_galaxysmtd-3.99-RC2-20130921
Unfortunately I cannot flash twice because I can't get into CWM once we hit the Semaphore screen. I can pull the battery and do volume down/home/power but it only takes me to downloading option, not recovery. So I'm unsure how I can flash twice without going to stock rom in between?

you can repeat flash, when you doing it the first time by just repeating the process and only rebooting after you have flashed it more than once and after that flash the gapps than reboot. or try for a stable version.

If your phone status like this
or your IMEI is 0000 than you need to use your efs backup to resolve like this
[6] Problem:- lost my IMEI or changed on upgrading to JB CM 10
Quote:
Solution:- Reason is you had Jumped from GB to JB (should be on ICS before JB), so now you need to
1) Download Root Explorer, or Xplore, or any root browser from Play Store and use it to
2) Search you internal SD card for sdcard/backup/efs or any other backup you have for your efs
3) Copy nv_data.bin, nv_data.bin.md5 paste them (means overwrite existing files) into /efs in your Internal Phone memory
4) Fix permissions by Click on efs folder and keep it pressed to open the menu and click on permissions and set them to rw_r_r_ ( Owner = read & write - Group = read only and Others = Read only), after this Save using menu and exit using menu
5) Power down phone and reboot into recovery and wipe cache before rebooting phone to get back your original IMEI
or
you can start from the beginning.. go back to GB 2.36 (use a JVU ROM + Root, upgrade to ICS CM 9 and than to CM10
Solution for i9000 on JB:-Try not to jump from Gingerbread to Jellybean, as all upgrades should be done progressively. meaning you need to be on a GB 2.3.6> than into ICS and finally into JB.

Try to change your modem to JW4 or contact directly to SferaDev. I have this ROM without any problems, and it contains Semaphore by default
Could this be a bug in the PA-ROM?

Depends on the Kernel you had flashed before on the ROM you had, The version you have is 3.0.0.5, written on the image your posted. Here you must know and indicate what is your phone model.

wooh, Hold on! you flashed dbdata. rfs and hope it will work?, Step by step meant flash the gingerbread ROM with kernel as written above, the link is inside the upgrading or downgrading to gingerbread section.
Flashing a kernel alone would work too, but you are not sure what version of ROM, you really have on your phone.
IF you are positively sure you had a gingerbread ROM, than flash this to solve your problem

The problem lies in dbdata.rfs which I installed earlier,and can you help me how to fix my mistake?
Hi,
I have a Galaxy S i9000 which fails to boot - it just between the Galaxy S logo and a blank screen every few seconds.
I can get into both Download mode and recover mode. Some time ago I rooted this phone and installed Gingerbread so I could unlock it, and it looks like I also installed ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.5 , that's what comes up when I boot into recovery mode.
Unfortunately I don't have any saved backups that I can attempt to restore from.
Is it possible that I can load something onto the sdcard using a PC and then use the 'apply update from sdcard' or 'install zip from sdcard' option to get the phone back to life? If someone can point me to some instructions to read, that would be very helpful.
Hi,
when you can get into CWM-Recovery you can push ZIPs etc. to your phone ...
In the CWM-Recovery you have to mount the internal SD...that should be all i think...

I tried to download the version of Odin and the ROM from that first link, but it seems to be impossible without agreeing to install a whole bunch of malware/crapware such as iLivid, Torch and a ton of worthless browser extensions.
Is it possible to get this stuff from somewhere else which isn't quite so intrusive?
Kind regards,
Pete
When you try the first link of xsenman in the thread you can find the version for odin to download i think without downloading any malware and so on ...

the trick is to click only the free download button again and again till your download begins, you will never be able to download, if you click the other download buttons (they have added all this buttons lately), as free upload sites like this purposely have them to confuse downloaders and take them to all sorts of crapware. Not that I like it myself, but this site allows above 100MB download at one go, compare to media fire which needs to be split up as such uploaded to it. like I said when I uploaded it a year ago, it never had this issues.

It certainly confused me, so it worked
Thanks for your help with this. The solution I found was to download a cyanogen 10.1.3 zip file onto the Micro SD card via my PC, put that into the phone, do a recovery install using 'select zip file' from external_sd .
That allowed me to update the CWM installation, then re-run the installation and boot to the boot loader, so I at least have a working phone. Not sure whether I can live with cyanogenmod, but at least if anyone else searching finds this thread they'll see how it can be resolved without Odin or stock ROMS if CWM is present.
Thanks everyone for your help.
Great. Whne you "can live with CM" you can get it on with CM 10.2 actually as nightly-builds but for me it seems to be very stable ...:good::angel:
