Hello friends, I tell them I wanted to free my phone, but I deleted the efs folder and now the phone will not turn on, it stays stuck on the Samsung GT-I8190 lyrics, not to do ...
No matter if the imei is not recovered, what interests me is that on again, PLEASE HELP ME!! : crying::crying:
I can login into recovery and download mode
I have a copy of the EFS folder, but I have it in the internal memory, and as the phone will not turn on, can not get it back: (
Download the latest stock framework for your device and flash it with odin pc then restore your efs folder copied.
Everything will return as it was. ?

Hey there,
I've got this SGS I9000 of a friend and tried to install a different ROM,
I already did it many times to other GS, though this one seems to be a tough one to crack.
For starters, He did not have the download mode, I've fixed it and placed the files on the SD of the phone.
Then I failed the root through Z4 and SOC, so I did it through Odin.
I got into the recovery (after made it 2e and not 3e), did the root and since then the phone won't got through the "Galaxy S GT-I9000 Samsung" screen.
Enters Download Mode, Enters Recovery, Nothing else.
I already did the factory and cache wipe, still nothing new.
I looked over through all the guides with nothing new, I let the phone "rest" on the screen I've mentioned above, not for 10 minutes, for 8 hours. Still, no cigar.
Any suggestions?
Just go to download mode connect it to pc and flash it via odin

Do you mean flash in the new rom?
Though after I rooted the device it still won't start up, and I havnt backed up the efs yet (through SGS TB).
Is it safe to skip that stage and flashing the rom directly?
I wanted to make sure after I did all the resets the phone still working and all the things I've placed on the SD are still there, and that the settings I've made were still the same.
If i was on your place i would flash it. It is not working so you don't have much to loose except apps, messages and contacts if they are on the phone.

Thats just it, I dont care of contacts messages etc. I already backed em up through KIES.
(Which is closed if I forgot to mention).
The problem is I don't want to lose any important information (thats why I'm eager to backup the efs and check if the root through the recovery worked.)
After I wiped to factory reset wasnt it supposed to start up? (Which I remember from other GS that happened?)
But if you have wiped your device all data is already lost.

so how do I know if the root worked? The efs Data still supposed to be there (since I realized it's on the SD, and data on SD was not wiped after I saw all the files I placed there still there.)
Any more offers? Anyone?
Pretty Urgent..
Hi,
I am trying to update my Samsung Galaxy S to Android 2.3 through Kies... Everything goes on smoothly but when the phone enters the download mode (Download Mode, Do not turn off the target), it hangs over there. And moreover, Kies shows that Phone is not responding try rebooting.
once i remove the battery and restart the phone, it works normally.
Any ideas on how should i proceed? The phone is not rooted and its OTA update.
Also, would like to mention that Kies is not able to take the backup of contacts. It says exception occurred and continues with download of the firmware.
Please help... Thanks
Guru
Just forget Kies.
Kill all Kies-tasks and use Odin for flashing. But don't forget to backup your data first!

As Lunchbox115 said, update your OS through Odin or Heimdall and just backup your contacts with export option (it creates .vcf file on your sd card).
You can also sync your contacts worh Google.

go to recovery mode, Volume UP + Home button + Power, then Factory reset ur i9003
What about the backupd file.is it useful

How long has it been at the boot logo?
I think (correct me if I'm wrong) that what you apply/remove themes, it clears your devices caches, and immediately after applying/removing a theme, the caches have to be rebuilt, which explains the longer boot times.
Anything up to 10/15 minutes is normal (should be less if you have a lag fix activated). If it stays like that, then you have a problem.
My phone goes on rebooting then samsung logo...then again reboots....i hav backed up my original system files using titanium backup....is there a way to use that backup file....i mean through upload mode or smthng...i dont want to erase my internal sd card memory

Just reflash the rom that you are on
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
As per my experience, the backed up files should be stored in SD card/titanium back up folder. So you are not in a risk of losing it. Just you have to flash the previous stable rom, then you can download titanium back up from market and there you will find the back up apps.
HELP!!!! My Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 is in soft bricked mode
After i used odin and it took forever and did not start at all, i removed the usb cable and now when i start up its always an icon of a fone n a triangle wif a ! in it and a computer bside it HELP PLS!!!! HOW COULD I FIX THIS?!?!
did you flash the correct firmware.check your device model and download the suitsble version and try flashing again.if you go to boot screen then remove your battery and goto stock recovery and wipe data and cache.dont panic just search and read you may get a solution.
Restore it then flash it again. That's why you always back up. If you didn't back up download the official firmware then root it again

Youre phone is dead and there is nothing u can do about it! All you had to do was read a bit!! and im sorry but i must say this you were incredably dumb!!
1st error . Flashing 5830 with odin 1.83
2nd error. NEVER EVER EVER EVER!!! Touch efs partition ( but since you touched it now you have no imei and you'll not be recognized by any carrier ... any more )
3rd EFS is hidden partiton and not even mounted! Thats why u cant find it and never will
4rth Never ask for an imei here ... every imei is unique and having other people imei is a crime!
Take your phone to service center cause theres nothing u can do about it! And next take your time to learn properly how to do things with ace!
Take care
