Any help with this? I rooted & installed CWM on my Wildfire with no issues, but it seems like this phone's a tough nut. Can't start it up now, screen keeps flickering if I try to turn it on, don't think it can even boot up.
Your prompt reply is much appreciated!

Okay so first I downloaded the OPS, Gingerbread firmware and ODIN. Then I installed Kies for drivers, and then I opened ODIN, inserted the OPS and Gingerbread firmware file, started the process.
Somehow when it came to the reboot part, the phone just kept rebooting (screen lights up, turns off, pause, repeats again) and it hasn't worked since.
Then now there's an error with setup connection which presumably has something to do with the drivers, so I reinstalled it but now setup connection keeps occurring...
Okay, now, I tried doing the whole process again... I'm stuck at 'Close serial port and wait until rebooting' as the phone constantly flickers on and off repeatedly with no sign of anything going on.
Somebody please help :/
Still the same?
Firmware from Sammobile.com?
Wait...prob is while installing cwm or GB?
Are you using the right version of odin,i think it's 4.31...?

Yup, 4.31, TASS v1.0 as OPS. S5570DXKPD_S5570OLBKPD for the firmware.
Problem now is I think the flashing works.. but somehow, the phone is somehow corrupt in a way that boot is not possible - nothing's possible except download mode.
I haven't played around with Samsungs, mostly HTCs so this is uncharted territory for me.

Yup, firmware from Sammobile.com. Problem is while installing GB. Will trying to install CWM first at least alleviate some of the problem?
In fact... I can't even boot into the original recovery. All that happens is the phone boots... and goes into an insane loop. Can't do anything else other than that.
Thanks guys..
download again the firmware Nd retry.. till downloading mode works you are safe.. in general section FAQ post there is link and guide

Even when the firmware is being flashed, the screen constantly flashes on and off. Is this normal?

Check for Tass_ops file sometimes it might be a possibility that ur using a wrong one.

Doing that right away.
Is it normal for the phone to flicker on and off during the flash process, and after the flash process is complete, with ODIN showing PASS?
Okay, so installing a multi package firmware didn't work either. Now what. )': at wit's end here.
It won't flicker.
And when it's done it'll show pass.
While in download mode, Odin shows connected rite? A yellow box Appears?
below are the current android details in my I9000,
Firmware Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: I900XXJVU
Build Number : GINGERBREAD.XXJVU
Tried upgrading to Remics-JB 3.0.1 and failed. Reverted to the 2.3.6 XXJUV. Can someone point me the steps or specific forum following which i can upgrade to either ICS or JB ?
Can you describe why it failed? You need to tell more, so we know what went wrong.

1. rooted the XXJVU
2. tried installing the Remic-JB which i had earlier copied to internal SD card
3. successfully installed, rebooted and got stuck in boot screen. waited for 5-10 minutes no change.
4. removed the battery and rebooted manually, the same status.
5. reverted back to XXJVU.
guess this helps
Wipe everything and flash it two times.

Coming from GB it is wise to flash a ICS rom first before going to jellybean,
after this then you should be fine.

It configures the partition and it's good to do that just in case.
Hi! I made some questions in another thread because I thought it was related, but now I think it's not.
The story begins with me (I know now how stupid I was) playing with Swapper2 and other Swapper apps trying to improbe the phone performance. After unninstalling Swapper2 my phone kinda crashed, so I decided to restore a backup I was made 2 days ago from CWM recovery just in case. worth saying I was running an unbranded 4.1.2 version downloaded from sammobile.
When I restored and the phone booted i found surprisingly the Setup Wizard screen, so I freaked out and tried to restore again with same results. Since then, i tried tons of different things, most of them suggested by @shut_down he was really kind and helpfull:
-obviously flashing stock ROM from sammobile again, but the problem persist.
-install CM 10, CM10.2 with corresponding gapps (doesn't even boot, phone gets stuck in the pretty CM loading screen)
-install Harsh Jelly:
1) it worked without gapps, and then tried to restore my backup but the same result again
2) installing gapps in Harsh Jelly makes it crash, like the others.
In short: in every case, the gapps crash and the Setup Wizard restart.
as additional info, i don't know if it's related, the CWM recovery log shows this every time i check it.
I: Can't format unknow volume: /external_sd
I: Can't partition unsafe device: /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
my guess is: could it be that mmcblk0p8 is the partition where gapps are saved and it is corrupted or something and thats why I'm unable to make them work?
I'm deeply grateful. ♥♥
PS: feel free to correct my english, it's not my native language, sorry. ♥
mmcblk0p8 is internal sdcard I don't know if it's related
I see you made some error: watch out which gapps you flash: 4.1, 4.2, 4.3.. Wrong version will crash and you don't need to flash them on stock based rom
Problem is in /data partition: you could solve by deleting secsetupwizard.apk and setupwizard.apk but how? 1) try booting your phone in safe mode (there's a guide in this section) and then delete them using some app such as root browser, if you can't boot in safe mode try adb

at first i didn't install gapps in Harsh Jelly, the phone booted correctly but there were not gapps at all! it was then when i tried to install them from CWM. Yes I installed the right ones (4.1.x) 20121011 from goo.im/gapps. and then they crashed.
also, as I said before, when I restore (in CWM) my backup of a stock unbranded ROM (from sammobile) the gapps and SWizard also crash, and I'm not installing any gapps.
I'll try that but I have a question, will this solve my problem permanently or it will make my phone functional just for this rom now?
booting in safe mode also starts setup wizard, and also crashes.
Well, I decided to start all over again. I downgraded to GB, I flashed with odin a 2.3.6 unbranded ROM downloaded from sammobile. The phone boots, gapps and setup wizard don't crash BUT the signal comes and goes, I checked the baseband and it says: XXXX
I don't know if I should try to solve this now, or continue with flashing with odin a 4.1.2 ROM from sammobile.
Which firmware did you flash?? Try the one from your country

I flashed the one from my country, off course. (Argentina)
I found 2 possible ways to fix it, I'll try to fix it from terminal, i need someone else from my country to give me his modemfs.img.md5
the other way is clearing EFS in odin, but sounds too risky for me.
After solving this I'll keep trying to uptdate to 4.1.2
Thanks.
I am not sure what happend to you with that IMEI. Try to flash JB.
And why did you install gapps on Harsh Jelly? That ROM had its own google apps. You probably flashed gapps for wrong android version. You can't use 4.2.2 gapps on 4.1.2 for example.

I repeat: at first I didnt flash any gapps, because it doesn't need it, but GAPPS WEREN'T THERE! I swear! no market, no gmail, maps or anything. so, I decided to try installing them, I'm sure I installed 4.1.2 (the right ones) just to try, and then gapps and Setup Wizard crashed again.
I solved it
ok, I solved a few things here, I'll try to detail every step I did for the record.
I downgraded to 2.3.6 with 3 files, CSC, PIT and PDA,(with re-partition box checked). there my gapps worked ok, but my baseband was XXXX and I had not 2g or 3g. I fixed the baseband following this steps:
-------------------
(parenthesis) i had to root 2.3.6 first following this steps: (as example) http://techdraginfo.blogspot.com/2012/10/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s-advance.html
then install terminal.
then get the modemfs.img.md5 from a friend with the same phone.
I uploaded that file to my googledrive, I link it here just in case (warning, it is from company: Claro, Argentina, UBLD1)
goo.gl/DzAjza
------------------
I've flashed modemfs.img.md5 now 3G is working.
On another device (same model and region) I did:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 of=/sdcard/modemfs.img.md5
Copied generated file to my sdcard and did:
dd if=/sdcard/modemfs.img.md5 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2
Reboot and it's done.

(i don't know if there is any relation between my previous problem and baseband, but still... )
then, i upgraded to an unbranded 4.1.2 downloaded from sammobile with odin, and everything worked properly.
(note: I followed the downgrade then upgrade steps before but the problem persisted, the only difference this time was the fix of the baseband, thats why I THINK it was related in some way)
Now everything worked again, I installed CWM from stock 4.1.2 recovery, then restored my previous backup.
Thanks to everyone who helped and guided me in this, specially to @shut_down he answered every time in this forum.

CongratulationThat You Have Solved Your Problem , I am Facing Exact Same Problem
My Setup wizard crash , gapps stopped, harshjelly works without gapps, every thing is same
Only difference is after downgrading to GB i can see my baseband , imei and i have network
I can understand one thing it has something to do with my efs folder , which" failed to mount", as it can be seen in recovery .
The file given by your friend must contain efs , and i think after flashing that file your imei number might be changed , just confirm that your imei number and your friends imei number is different and if it is same then remove file given by you from google drive immidiately or many people might get same imei number, and you still have your original imei number different from your friend please let me know so i can flash this file ,
Never share your imei number . Thanks in advance.

1. You can't go back to GB just like that, there is a guide on our phone section for downgrading.
2. How did you try to install CWM?
3. Flash JB with Odin and see what happens.
4. Search. And read.

do what @shut_down said, notice that to downgrade I followed a downgrade tutorial and also checked the re-format partitions box in Odin (you need additional files to do that).
good luck!
Hello Guys i flashed the Germany Version of 4.3 lte last night and in doing so i have Temporarily killed my Phone.
I have tried all the Recoveries processes via Kies and Odin and i am having no luck.
I think the reason why it won't flash is because the Germany 4.3 is a Newer Version than the Stock 4.1.2.
When i'm in Odin i get sboot.bin Fail when trying to Flash the Latest Stock rom. I am able to Flash the Germany 4.3 again and that flashes but then the Phone Stays on the Samsung Flash Screen.
Could someone please Help? I have been on with this for Hours now. I think what i need is a 4.3 Version of any rom in Odin .tar format so i can at least get the phone to boot up and then maybe i can get CWM Recovery on there and flash a Stock rom that way.
Thanks in Advance
You have to remove sboot.bin and tz.bin when downgrading. Be careful, downgrading will give you Knox warranty void 0x1!

THE kies frimware intilition doesnt work as you have 4.3 bootloader and knox blocks older boot loader
dont worry when 4.3 becomes available in your area it wont have to downgrade and ultimately this method will work but still things are looking pretty bad dor the intermediatory days.
PS is ther anyway to restore baseband imei without any backup

What if i download the Germany Version again and try flashing. I thought it would of worked? I am now in this situation surely the Country it comes from wouldn't make a difference? Could someone take the Germany 4.3 and make it a Working Version .tar file to flash with Odin3?

I have no idea what i did different, However i have reflashed the German 4.3 on my GT-I9305 and this time to my Total Surprise it worked!!
I wish i could say what i did and it worked but i have absolutely no idea what was done differently.
Thanks all for your Help.
I will say i installed the drivers manually and just on the off chance i flashed it again with the file i downloaded last Night. I also flashed a recover trying to get it to load a recover so i could flash a zip file.

I am so feeling sucessful right now although i didnt got 4.3 but i was sucessful in getting my imei and baseband and network back.:good:
Sorry for the late response but when you get stuck on the Samsung boot screen all you have to do is boot into Recovery and do a Factory Reset and Wipe Cache.
Another thing to remember is to flash the modem for your country otherwise you might accidently disable some frequencies and enable other useless ones.

Which 4.3 update did you flash? I used the DBT German one.
Did you flash the right modem too? It worked for me and i was using a i9305T. All i did was flash the latest modem (from the brand of phone i have which is Telstra) and did a wipe data and wipe cache.
OK, twice now this has happened.
The first time was after I updated some apps. The second was when I had installed a new app.
Initially several apps then fail to work, they open and close straight away.
I reboot and phone hangs on first M screen - before the swirly white bits.
Into recovery from there shows dead Android with open chest and Explanation mark (I think)
Factory reset from recovery fail doesn't seem to do anything
Only solution is to flash official ROM using RSD
Phone is totally UK Orange Stock - not unlocked or rooted.

To access recovery in the Android with open chest and Explanation mark : press Volume up AND down some times to get in recovery
and in recovery try factory reset.

Thanks for that, it may be useful in future, but any ideas what may have caused this?

I have the same issue right now, what do I have to do? Where can I get an official ROM and can I just flash the ROM on an locked and unrooted phone? I have O2 DE phone. Thanks.

See http://forum.xda-developers.com/razr-i/general/index-razr-t2832722 - should answer all your questions - but yes, you can use RSD on any phone, without unlocking or rooting - it is the official Motorola tool. The O2 De ROMs are on the linked page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028814

Well, it didn't, I'm still getting this: 'Please check input file. Either XML format is wrong or image files associated is missing' after exctacting through RSD Lite. And I can't get further.

By looking at your other post you are using this zip file in RSD-lite: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028814
As the Titel of the thread says, they are 'OTA' updates. So only usable through recovery and when going from a working 4.0.4 stock rom to 4.1.2.
That's why u are getting that error. The zip is not intended to be used through RSD-Lite.
U will need to get your hands on a JB RSD-Lite firmware zip file. This site: http://motofirmware.com/files/category/24-smi/
Has some firmwares, not all.

Thanks I followed Eserims advise. I also found this site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239706 before, but only working link was Retail UK/British and I wasn't sure if I can use it since i have O2DE.
But on the site you showed me I found this: CFC_9.8.2I-50_SMI-26_S7_USASMIJBO2DE.xml.zip. I don't know what CFC means, but I'm going to try it, thank you.
Update:
It's working... Couple of days reading threads, searching the internet and nothing, than Hazou came and it's done, thaks again.
