I was following the official cyanogen mod wiki guide and everything was fine up until step 6. I couldn't boot into recovery mode, but I could boot normally. So after turning the phone off to try again, I realized I am now stuck in a boot loop. I can boot into download mode perfectly but now ODIN doesn't recognize when the phone is plugged in. Should I be worried? I have no idea what to do..
Thanks in advance, if you need more info feel free to ask!
Original problem (bootloop) was solved by using Heimdall, as was every subsequent problem I encountered in this thread. Many thanks to all!

Don't worry, it doesn't sound bad.
Can you enter CWM recovery? If yes, wipe 3 times (data/factory reset - cache - dalvik cache under "advanced") and reboot. It should do it.
If only download mode is accessible, you must flash a stock ROM with PIT file which will do proper re-partition of the /system again, root it and install CWM. After that you can flash again CM10.2. Don't use the CM site, use the thread of developer pawitp, just flash also compatible Gapps version right after the rom while still in recovery.
Best stock ROM as basic for clean flashing of CyanogenMod seems to be Froyo with SpeedMod kernel. Check this thread, all download links are there and working. If it helps you, post in that thread that it worked:

The speedy reply is appreciated, however Odin refuses to acknowledge my phone for some reason. The device is recognized by my PC, the drivers are installed, after all everything worked seamlessly the first time. Any ideas?

Is USB debugging enabled?
Otherwise, leave your i9000 turned off, run Odin and prepare all files first and turn the i9000 on into download mode just short before connecting and flashing. The i9000 has kind of "sleep mode" in download mode so if you run it into the download mode and wait few minutes, nothing will happen anymore.
also try a different USB socket on your computer
Samsung kies is killed???
No amount of port/wire changing seemed to work with Odim. However I followed a tut on youtube to flash with Heimdall, and my phone finally booted up with froyo 2.3.3
My original plan was to downgrade from Cyanogen mod, which my older brother put on a few years ago. The phone was beginning to lag and stuff, so yesterday I finally decided to do something about it. The PLAN was, to downgrade to froyo, and then upgrade to Cyanogen mod 10.2, however after getting froyo, my phone went a boot loop (hence this thread).
So I'm asking you all, what is my next step? I'm usually not this helpless, but I can't afford to screw this up again, and I'm honestly a bit scared to try anything without your say. As I said, I am now on froyo2.3.3, and the phone seems okay.
I'm looking through the file manager, and there's loads of cyanogenmod files in the root directory from before. I sorta wanna clean everything out before upgrading. Where should I go from here?

Excellent BTW, 2.3.x is Gingerbread, not Froyo. Upgrading to CM10.2 from Froyo with SpeedMod kernel works very well. Here is a step-by-step guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2444308
You are good adviced to read carefully, not just briefly. So you will void problems.
It could be, that your Samsung USB driver hasn't been installed properly. Installing Heimdall drivers has removed Samsung USB driver from my PC some months ago so be sure to have all working before flashing any new build.
If you flash now some Froyo build over your Gingerbread, you don't need PIT file and re-partition. Leave that field empty and don't touch any Odin options (re-partition will remain unchecked). Use compatible Odin version.

You're a hero! So I am now following that guide, and here are the steps I think I need first;
Root & install CWM recovery: turn off your i9000 and download speedmod-kernel-k13e-500hz.tar
Run Odin as admin, set "speedmod-kernel-k13e-500hz.tar" under PDA. Reboot and reset time checked, re-partition unchecked(!!)
start your i9000 in download mode with 3-button-combo and connect it via USB cable
if <Added!> and ID:COM port number are displayed in Odin, click on "Start"
after only few seconds kernel will be flashed and your i9000 will automatically reboot
Enjoy, now you can install zips of the CM build and compatible gapps for it via CWM recovery, SpeedMod kernel features CWM version 2xxx so after first attempt to install CM.zip it will upgrade just the CWM recovery to version 6xxx, so after that you can really flash the CMbuild.zip
How would I go about doing this process with Heimdall, as Odin is really not an option anymore
you could also try Mobile Odin Pro (google it) then choose the flashing kernel from here http://ndroidplay.blogspot.com/2012/08/mobile-odin-flash-kernels.html?m=1 then just flash the custom rom from Mobile Odin.
EDIT: this is the flashing kernel for i9000 http://dl.xda-developers.com/attach...9/9/8/7/MobileODIN_FlashKernel_I9000-v2.0.zip
---------- Post added at 12:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 PM ----------
actually to use Mobile Odin i forgot you need a phone that working and can boot into the OS to install it so may not be an option for you.
After many hours of errors and whatnot, I have finally managed to upgrade my phone to Cyanogen Mod 11-20131207-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd.
However, there's no play store!
Apparently I'm running android 4.4.1 and CM 11, therefore none of the gapp files are applicable?
I tried installing the latest one, only to get the error: (bad)
Did you use the latest nightly from today (20131208) ???
And the gapps for CM 11 ??? ==> http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Gapps

I might write up a more in-depth tut later on for those as clueless to the scene as I am, however for now the whole process can be summed up in a few major steps;
Down/Upgrade to GingerBread (Android 2.3-2.3.2)
Root
Install ClockWorkMod
Wipe cache/data
Install Cyanogenmod
Perfect, good to hear, that your phone works as "desgined" :good:

Hi, device is rooted, and clockworkmod recovery 6.0.4.5 installed.
ROM is JB, the official update from LG. Today device reported there is an update to the installed firmware.
I rebooted in CM recovery, took a nandroid backup, booted, and accepted to download the official update to my official JB rom. After downloading I was asked to reboot (in order to install), and the phone reboots to the CM recovery.
From there I don't know what to do. I have tried rebooting, but again find myself to the CM recovery. I have tried "reboot to bootloader" and get stuck at the LG boot screen logo with the message "Now Ready!" in tiny white letters on the upper left corner.
I would try "install zip" but I don't know where the downloaded update is (if it even is in an acceptable zip format)
Phone isn't bricked, I guess I can always restore from the recently taken backup, but I really would like to know if there is a way to install this update.
Thank you

You're right, but you know, sometimes you just can't nail the right keywords especially if its not your native language. I searched, but obviously not good enough.

Not even my nandroid backup can help me get to where I was before? So much for nandroid being the ultimate backup, a "snapshot image" of the device...
So, what if, I use CM recovery to install a custom rom, and then restore from my nandroid backup (being the official JB) ?
Flash with kdz flasher original ROM then flash cwm you can put back your backup. I think the problem starts that the update pushes something in the boot section that is expecting an other (read original) recovery . when you installed cwm it boots up cwm so that's why an nandroid backup doesn't work I think ( to be honest I'm not 100% sure this is correct)

What gives?

Have you yet followed the advice and installed the KDZ?
Trying to avoid that, as it seems too much work for a phone that was working fine, and stuck to recovery due to some silly boot flag or something.
Saw it as a chance to try cyanogenmod. But it seems having CM recovery and the cyanogenmod rom on the sd card won't cut it! Talk about failure..

I don't think you will have a choice. If you created the nandroid backup on your SD card then you aren't going to lose it, so just flash the KDZ, root again and install your backup, or accept the LG update and rebuild all your software again.
Yes, one thing is for sure. I had to install the KDZ to be able to proceed with anything..
It's just funny having a working CWM recovery and a cyanogen rom on the device and after flashing it, still not having a device that boots. A "recovery"/flash tool, should be able to "recover" from such a situation..

You can't blame the recovery. It is clearly stated many, many times that you should never attempt an official OTA update with a non-standard (rooted or recovery installed) device. On other devices you could even hard-brick AFAIK, so consider yourself lucky that you only had to reflash a KDZ and start again.
For restoring stock rom use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682146 I can confirm it works and it is (very) easy.
Yes that's what I used and I also confirm it works and is very easy.
I have had several roms, over several devices, over several years. I have never had issues before.
I have Note 4 T-Mobile running 4.4.4. I rooted, installed TWRP and am trying to install cm-12.1-20150509-UNOFFICIAL-temasek-trltetmo
I tried installing a different ROM last night and the same things happen.
When I wipe Cache it removes the TWRP
I install TWRP app, then install TWRP 1.8.6 or whatever using the TWRP app
Reboot into recovery
Flash the ROM and Gapps
Wipe, wipe again just to be safe
Reboot
It goes through the CM logo to where it initializes apps, goes through them all, reboots and does it all again. 2 different ROMs did exactly the same thing. I dont know what im doing wrong. I tried installing TWRP With ADB but it hangs on "waiting for device" When I adb devices my hone shows and I have USB debug turned on. After I finally quit and pulled the battery It said no OS available so I had to DL and reflash stock image.
I am beyond frustrated now,
Any ideas? What info do you need from me?

Which rom u trying
few thoughts.
First verify the MD5 of your download of the rom. make sure it wasn't corrupt. Second. Flash just the rom only and boot, then flash gapps and boot.

I have not messed with CM since I had the Note 2, which was until the Note 3 came out. Was a different carrier too. Generally the rule was flash CM then boot then reboot and flash GAPPS. I haven't looked but I would assume it is still the same.
Glad it worked
Hi guys Recently Samsung released 5.1.1 for our devices! So I decided to make a easy tutorial on how to install TWRP on our devices (unfortunately without root).
1. Download newest odin from Here!
2. Reboot to download mode.
3. Download this file TWRP RECOVERY
4.Flash it with AP option.
5. Done! Now You should be able to boot into TWRP Recovery.
Info
Can I restore my previous custom rom now?
Yes and no. I tried restoring two roms. AOSP and TW, aosp had a bootloop then successfully booted, and TW didn't seem to boot at all.
Does it root my device/Can I root my device now?
Nope, not yet. I tried to make a custom rom with root built in but it was stuck in a bootloop.
Why would I need this?
Well. Now You can restore Your rom, and flash other roms(Some may fail due to a newer bootloader).
Any bugs?
Sometimes first boot after flashing this recovery might bootloop, but just remove Your battery and turn on Your phone again.(Happened only once to me)

Yes... I did manage to restore the backup image of 5.1 as I ended up in bootloop while trying for the root access. So far OK with at least TWRP is working.
I have a question, If I'm on 5.1.1 and I've installed this TWRP, By using this TWRP RECOVERY, can I install 5.0.1 custom rom via zip file?
I do not mean to restore my backup rom. I mean I do a fresh installation

It seems to bootloop roms that need 5.0 bootloader. But AOSP rom that runs on 5.1.1 boots up without any problems. Just during boot You might see message "kernel is not seandroid enforcing" and then the rom should boot up.
I flashed twrp via odin and it says pass then reboot after that when i try to enter recovery it get me to stock recovery any clue why is that and how to solve this ? v.v

Easiest way on odin is make sure auto reboot is unchecked. When its done unplug the cable pull the battery put it back in boot into twrp Let me know how it works out for you.
