hey guys today i got a vodafone locked samsung galaxay s . I wanted to unlock it so i read a guide on how to root it , i followed this guide using odin3 . I put the phone into download mode and ran odin3 , i followed everything the guide said and started odin3 but odin stops on zImage , I left it for an hour and nothing changed . Now the phone shows the symbol below when i try to turn it on . I can get the phone back into download mode im just wondering if anyone knows a way to get this phone rooted ?

i suffered that alot when i was new to rooting and flashing, just try flashing a new stock firmware back to the phone from samfirmwares.com and see how you go,
actualy pre rooted firmware
firmware http://www.multiupload.com/YY0JBMUWBF
csc file http://www.multiupload.com/NRVCK6KYWD
512 pit file http://www.multiupload.com/I5WICSBFJ1
see how you go with that, although u may need to manually add youre providers apn settings in after though

Regarding the icon: flash the bootloaders(boot & Sbl) and a working kernel

Thanks for the posts ...fliptechnologies do i use odin to flash them files ? where does the firmware go ?(pda?). Does anyone know if anyone with the same problem has made a guide by any chance ?
thanks

there are apps which help you root your phone using adb
like SuperOneClick you might want to try it, or using a firmware with root as suggested
there is also an app which can be installed in your phone to root ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953)
but first you need to get a firmware in order to install that app
get an stock ROM like 2.2 froyo or 2.1 eclair, then try with the app

[Root] Help, can't root v20c

Posting on behalf of a friend. Here goes:
0) Yes, we've read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487105
1) Stuck on V20C. The official LG update utility says this is the most up-to-date version.
2) Have tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1442588
3) Have tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1480392
4) Have tried method on Cyanogenmod wiki.
Nothing worked. Is there a method that's confirmed to work for V20C out there, or have we just screwed up something? Attempting to eventually install Cyanogenmod.

indeed you can't downgrade using LG updater.. no problem, friend, here's your solution..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448803
1. download the v10a firmware
2. install the firmware using SmartFlash Tool
3. root the v10a using blackjack
4. install ROM manager, and from there, install CWM
5. you can use the CWM recovery to install another custom ROM

Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566532 by the end of it you'll have your version ready to flash and root at your will

Ah, thank you very much.
We weren't aware that the methods for V20C and other V20 firmwares were interchangeable - after several failed attempts and several more perusals through XDA we were beginning to suspect that V20C was unrootable as nobody seemed to mention this version.
Glad we were wrong, now happily running CM7. Phone is reportedly much faster and responsive now. Thanks for the help!

hi
there is no need to install kernel
you can do it on CWM
only because of repartitioning on this rom on rom installation process tab will be reboot and continue to install rom afer boot automatically
good luck

What do you mean by repartitioning? Does it make partitions on my sd?
So basically i only need to go on recovery mode and install this along with its gapps? Pls correct me if im wrong.thanks.

hi
as you know there are several types of partition
in windows there are fat16, fat32, ntfs
in linux there are many diferent types
repartitioning in your tab means this ROM (10.1) needs to run on MTD partition, so its change your tab partition to MTD
in this case you lost all your data such as contacts, app and ...
and the other is when you want to came back to GB ROM you should use ODIN and follow restock rom installation
good luck

Ohh.. now i get what repartition means.. thanks.. ill try to flash 10.1 when i get time. Thanks again

Yup, take a look at xsenman's thread, but just a quick question, does it show you any kind of kernel screen as all? Semaphore, Mackay kernel, cyanogenmod kernel etc etc?

Like Soryuu say ,maybe the kernel is killed ???

I've had something like this before and the way I fixed this was to download the .tar version of Semaphore - not a .zip - and flash it through Odin under PDA. That caused the kernel to come up, in which case I booted into recovery and flashed whatever rom it was (I don't remember now), and then after that there were no problems.

Yes someone here in the forum told me ,only flashing Sema-Kernel via Odin (.tar) noch with zip-file because actually CM 10.2 won?t support that, i don`t know if it is correct, but i flased sema via Odin with every nightly and i haven`t any problems until now ...:good::good:

Hi,
I installed some random firmware and it got installed. But then phone started looping in boot.
I searched xda and found another thread which i did odin and fixed boot loop.
But after that again to square 1. The actual issue is that as soon as the phone is started the apps, services like google.com.etc etc starts crashing and phone barely boots up. How do I fix this crashing ?
Please help.
Thanks.

[Tutorial] How to Unbrick, Flash, Downgrade, Root, Update i9000 from Froyo to Kit Kat
and flash the gingerbread stock ROM, if you have poor Mobile Network reception problem, you can change the modem for India later, so follow guide and flash with PIT and JVU ROM
or you can flash a rescue kit ( it is the same) If you have everything saved, its best you format your internal SD card for a clean install.
