Help newbie with installing new ROM

Hi, I'm stuck with installing new rom, so I hope, that you'll help me.
There are steps what I've done:
- followed THIS topic and ROOT the device with ODIN and CF-Root 4.4 file.
- OKAY, I'm rooted, so let's flash the new ROM
- entered in Clockworkmod Recovery and format EVERYTHING ( /data, /system, /cache, /sdcard etc.... just everything) for clear system
- next I load package with ROM and than INSTALLL
and here is the most important part
- when installed ROM gets something like bootloop but with restart - ROM is loading and after about 40 sec its RESTART
- and the same thing over and over again - restart ->loading->restart.... System never start up correctly to the end
- then when I saw that it does not work, I tried go into the CWM, but there was no CWM (!!!) - it was erased (by installing new ROM maybe???)
- so I must flash (old and stock) ROM via ODIN and again root device with CF-Root (with CWM) - that was only functional rom, what I was able to run, and again did this procedure
I tried this way, perhaps with millions of different ROM and EVERY was stucked (restart) while loading.
I think there are some non-deleted files in device, which should be erased (and which cannot be erased by CWM) for clear start of new installed ROM, what do you think?
Would someone please help me? I don't want old Gingerbread with Kies
Thanks for every responce!

Does it say in the thread that you have to flash a custom kernel?? Give.me the link for the thread so I can make sure that you've done everything right

there is a link, but in hypertext THIS, i repost it in full text:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
I think, when I've root and CWM, there is no problem and install a new rom will be very least, so not as it seems

Dude this is a kernel not a rom what's the matter with you??:what:
Sent from ma 5assak

please read all my topic - i flash this kernel only for clockworkmod recovery
through CWM I can flash any other rom
through ODIN only stock - cant find any ICS or JB rom which I can flash via ODIN (.tar file)

What variant of i9000 do you have? Are you sure that the rom you are trying to flash is made exactly for your variant?
EDIT: Try Darky ROM, they have an ODIN flashable version called "Resurrection Edition" or something.

I mean give me the link for the Rom you are using not kernel

Samsung Galaxy S I9000, i'm sure 100%. NOT I9001, NOT Samsung Galaxy S2. Tried many roms from Development section for I9000, tried from get.cm etc... always the same result bootloop with restart

I meant I9000 or I9000B or I9000M or I9000T there's a difference between them

I9000 only, checked it several times

Ok so you can flash Darky Rom Resurrection Edition through ODIN with no problem. Its GingerBread if i remember correctly, but it should give you a recovery mode and fully operating phone. From this point you can flash whatever you want.

....And there is one more important thing:
When I have a stock kernel and stock rom from Samsung, cant get into recovery mode - VOLUME UP and POWER non functional. Only when I type: "adb reboot recovery" in terminal.
Just after when I flash a new pre-rooted kernel with CWM, VOLUPE UP and POWER is now functional
k4Z3666: OK, I try and give you an echo I think, when I format everything in CWM, there will be no sign of the earlier system and ALL WILL BE CLEAR

ok, flashing ICS, may need to be done twice, as first flash may bootloop, IF you want to return to stock to get out of this mess, since you are not sure as to where you are now, due to flashing many roms, use any kit from My Android Collections, link below to get you to a booting ROM, than add a kernel with CWM (use EZbaze package with kernels)

that's helped me too thank you

[Q] After CM10 ROM Tab stuck in boot screen

Hi there,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 WiFi/3G (first edition). Right now there is stock ROM on it. I flashed CWM on it, booted in recovery mode and followed some guide I found.
At first I had an older version of CWM (5), after some playing around I installed CWM version 6. I wanted to flash the CM10 ROM, but version 5 of CWM gave me some error, So I flashed a newer version.Followed the guide again, installed ROM from ZIP file with CWM, no errors, flashing is done, reboot Tab, and now the only thing I see is the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1" logo/boot screen.
When I restore the backup I created earlier, the tablet boots in the stock ROM again...
So I was wondering what is going wrong... I have read some thread but could not find anything similar to this...
Thanks!

Hi,
You are on the wrong forum, but I guess that you will need to re- stock your device using Odin or hemindall.

[Q] Bootloop, please fast reply.

I got Bootloop in my friends Galaxy Mini. I formatted before in CWM Recovery everything that was possible to clean phone (ROM CM 10) and now i flash S5570XWKTH firmware (it's one single package) and phone gets Bootloop. Where can I find 3-files ROM for this phone? Or maybe there is other solution?

Go to recovery mode and wipe data cache

Stock recovery is also present on this phone and you have to wipe everything just as if you would be in CWM and flashing a custom ROM. So use the same button combination for recovery, wipe data, reboot.

It works, thanks!

[Q] Please Help!. No root, no flash Custom ROM, No Flash Custom Recovery

First, Hi all, thanks for your time and help you can give me.
As the title says, the mini s3 (GT I8190) my sister does not allow me to root, flash a custom rom or flash a recovery. I've wanted to do all this because the phone has problems when trying to turn on wifi or bluethoot, none of the 2 work.
I have attempted all possible tutorials (I think) and none gives me the desired result. I'm no expert on the subject, but I have flashed several previously Smartphone smoothly and always try to follow the tutorial to the letter. I have an S3 i747 with CM Nightly and I have not had trouble making flash, root and others.
Another problem presented by the S3mini is that the computer does not recognize it. No it might be.
Things I've tried:
1) Flash a custom ROM (Maclaw + Odin): It did not work, stayed in bootloop. Nothing worked, It do not take the TWRP recovery.
2) Flash recovery separately Neither worked.
3) Root with Odin: It did not work.
4) Installer CM: I could not download the app for CM and the computer does not recognize the phone.
If you could please give me an idea of what is happening and how I could solve it would be very grateful.

It is a 8190?

Forget completely put the phone model. Yes, it is a GT I8190.

If it had some problems with stock before, maybe it has some borked hardware?
I would try to get TWRP (from novafusion) working before anything else. Where did it go wrong? Maybe try with heimdall - it worked very smoothly for me. If you have it installed, does "heimdall detect" report a device and "heimdall print-pit" print the partition table?

hi. i have na s3 mini too but its lock sim and no root.
doing root and flash it with odin does unlock it??
thanks

[Q] Flash, root, new ROM, after "brick" ? HELP ! ;)

Greetings !
Ok, lets start this here
Since i got my new Samsung GALAXY MINI (GT-S5570) i had a bad stock on it, with wi-fi errors, auto restarts, and other problems i was facing with... So i decided to flash and root my phone.
I followed some of the tutorials given by members here on this forum, and i successfully managed to root my phone, and install a new rom onto it !
- I used this rom to flash my Samsung Galaxy Mini (GT-S5570) GINGERSLEEK, was working fine and other, i was satisfied with it, but after some time it got boring and i decided to flash a new rom into the phone. This is where i fcked up... After i found a new rom i waned to flash, i did all the steps i am supposed to do ?
I found this rom VOID ROM and followed his steps how to flash, after i done all of that, and installed the new ROM, my phone didnt want to boot, it got stuck on the " A N D R O I D" boot logo... So after trying to go back to GINGERSLEEK, i couldnt, i installed it, and nothing happens, again stuck on the "ANDROID" boot logo...
So i tried to flash my phone to a stock rom, i had so many problems with ODIN to flash it to stock rom . When i flashed with odin i had a error, it couldnt flash, i was disappointed ... So i used google to find a solution, i was lucky and i landed on some forum where they said i have to flash "arm11boot"... It was kinda weird, why should i do that, but after i did it, everything started to work on ODIN and i could FLASH my phone to the STOCK ROM of Samsung Galaxy Mini!
So i wonder now, since my phone is back to a stock ROM am i able to FLASH it to THIS ROM (VOID) and root it without any problems, and if it is possible if some one could copy/paste me the steps how to flash it and how to root it successfully !
Thank you very much for your help ! :angel:

Follow this:
1. Make sure you have got gingerbread installed on your galaxy mini/pop s5570.
2. Get root.zip for stock gb(search for that root zip here in galaxy mini section) and flash it via stock recovery.
3. Download this file " update-CWM-5.2.0.8-Touch2-squadzone.zip"(again check galaxy mini section for this zip, don't flash any other phone's recovery, otherwise it'll hard brick your phone, be careful in choosing recovery, it has to be tass compatible recovery) and flash it via stock recovery and restart recovery.
4. Make wipes as recommended by void rom thread and install it. You are good to go after that.

Every phone has a default recovery which we call it "stock recovery".
You should look at sticky threads in galaxy mini android development section.
