I'm searching for a bootable SD image for i9070 but I'm unable to find one. I need it to try to fix a bricked phone.
Does anyone have a link to one or perhaps is skilled enough to prepare one ?
Thanks!!

I never heard that we have such thing. But anyway what happen? Can you go to download mode? If you can than just flash stock firmware.

No I can't, it doesn't boot in any way. Something goes wrong after flashing a cyano beta. I didn't do the flash myself.
I know it's possible to create a bootable sd from a working device or rom image. Actually I already used one for a different device.
Here are the instructions. Tryed it but I'm not skilled enough...

Flashing Cyanogen MOD for our device can't make your phone not booting in Download mode. If you flashed wrong firmware, you could demage your motherboard and there is no solution for that I think...
What CM beta did you use?
P.S. And how do you think to use it if you can't power on the phone?

Don't know which version, if it's important I could ask.
I know it could be damaged the motherboard, but I think there's a possibility that it's just corrupted the bootable partition. In that case, inserting a bootable sd could recover the phone. Here has been done with an S3

It is not important what version, it is important if it was for our device or not.
Another question, is your phone dead or you get stuck on Samsung logo when you try to power it on. I think that sd boot does not mean anything if you can't power on your phone... As I saw, to do this you need adb shell access.

Sorry, I do not want to get you demotivated. But think, how would you get that command executed?
Here says:
3. After it's done writing the img, take out your SD card and put it into your phone. With the battery in the phone, insert the SD card, plug the phone into your machine, and try to boot to DL mode via the usual method. This WILL take several tries and possibly rewriting the img file to SD card again to work.
I know it's a very remote possibility...

After uninstalling astrid task manager my phone rebooted then started to boot loop (g1 screen then reboot).
I went into cyanogens recovery image (1.3.1) and I get E: Can't open CACHE. I can't do anything it's just stuck at this to reboot I have to take the battery out.
From what I've read I should be able to reformat my sd card and then it should work. Is this true? Assuming it does will I have to reapply the cyanogenmod image to get my phone working again?
Only problem is that I can't get XP or Win 7 to recognise the sd card anymore. I *should* be getting a new one tomorrow though.
I still have access through adb is there anything I can do before I get a new sd card?
I'm running:
HardSPL + Latest radio
Cyanogens Recovery Image 1.3.1
Cyanogens Mod 1.3.6.1
Update - I can get in via adb definitley now, I can mount the sd card and all the files are still there but I still have no idea how to recover to a workable phone.

So recovery mode isn't starting at all? Try booting the phone without the SD card in. It might give you a lot of errors, but might be able to get you to boot in the first place. That's first priority.

I can get into recovery mode but the only command that works is Alt + L.
I don't have my phone on me because I'm at work but will try it later tonight.
Thank you very much!
Try to do a wipe. Alt+w. If that doesnt work i suggest getting into fastboot and flashing the cyanogen recovery image 1.3.1. Instruction are in the thread for fastboot. To get into fastboot press (Camera + Power) if that doesnt work try (Back + Power).
I tried to do a wipe but no luck.
Is fastboot the three skateboarding android guys I've heard of?
At the moment I'm just trying to get a lot of information so when I go home I can make a start at fixing it.
So far I really love the attittude of people on the forum, it's pretty awesome.
Argh when I try to boot into fastboot I just get the normal tricolour screen and not 3 android skating guys.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm using the hardspl btw
OK so I've done some more reading, I apparently need the engineering spl for fastboot. Which is ok but I can't get the recovery console to work to flash a new spl. This is really frustrating.
Arg so according to the spl thread I have the stock spl which sucks because I could have sworn I used the hardspl, I have the files on my hdd for gods sake. So now if I'm correct I'm ****ed. I looked over the Hayuko guide I used and it definitely said HardSPL (http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cach...=35&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk&client=firefox-a).
I'm stuck now.
Last post before I go to bed. I hope someone can help. If I don't hear anything then I'm off to t-mobile to see if I can get a new phone. If they can't then it's off to ebay.
You'll need the engineering spl or hard spl to flash a rom have you ever flashed a modified rom. Or are you stock. Do you have a2sd. I would imagine if your able to get to fastboot or some kinda recovery your not bricked. You can get an insurance replacement and use that phone as a test phone. Its fixable, need some more info.

I figured out what happened. I updated to the latest radio which pretty much reset my spl.
My SPL is now stock but still working, recovery image isn't though, main os isn't either.
Is it possible to flash Hard SPL from the normal SPL.
Try putting DREAIMG.nbh at the root of your sdcard and go into your spl and flash it.

You said a few posts back you have adb setup, what does logcat say is goin on when it reboots.

Your computer is probably not reading it because it's may not be assigned a drive letter. Try this... Go to control panel...Administrative tools...Computer management...Disk management...scroll down until you see your sd card partition. Right click on it and there should be something there that says assign a drive letter. Maybe this could help.

I have Nexus one problam is Hang on X symbol....I tryed to update diffrent type of Rom's But while updating error message came Radio_v2-fail-pu
Partition update fail!...........
well Im a noob, bt I'd suggest u to upgrade or downgrade ur Radio (Baseband), It seems like it's a problem of repair.
Moreover I don't know abt the SD card partitioning scene but u can also try formatting ur SD and making it a single partition. then apply the repair.
The links and updates for radio is HERE
BTW what rom u're trying?
does it boot to fastboot?
(hold trackball while booting)

Yes it's Boot in Fast boot mode........
If you got Fail-PU - it means that the NAND is failing and can't be written to anymore. Most probably it means that your phone is dead.
Hopefully you made a backup..... If so, can you
1.boot into recovery and
2. load a backup and go back to your previous rom?

No, there is no solution.
If your radio works as it is - it won't matter. Check the reason for your phone being stuck and not booting, use logcat. But the probability of proper reads with failed writes is very low.
If your radio doesn't work and it is the reason for the failure to boot - there is no solution.
Just to test and make sure - download ANY radio from the link that you were given earlier, and flash it in fastboot mode (if your bootloader is unlocked).
Hello all and thank you in advance for any help you can provide. I'll try not to post a wall of text.
In a nutshell the problem I'm having is - I cannot see my zip files in the stock recovery console under the sd update section. In fact it's like the sad card isn't seen at all. I've taken a zip of cwm, placed it on an sd card, inserted the card, boot into recovery and no zip file is seen. What I'd like is any and all details (perhaps a short tutorial with links to the right files) on how to do this.
Why? - well here's where it gets funny. Old android phone of mine I thought to be dead suddenly springs to life (sweet). It has a pattern lock which I don't remember (not sweet). Tried using google account, apparently I used a different one than the one I've been using for years... The short of it is I'd like to get my data off it or at least see what's there. I've heard I can flash cwm through the recovery console, then via cwm, flash a pattern lock reset (in theory). So I figured I'd give it a go. I hope I explained this well. Any help you guys can provide will be awesome. Thanks!
More info on the phone - no it's not setup for debugging mode. No I cannot access it via the PC. So adb and Odin are out. Also I know I can factory reset easily - not looking to do that though. Thanks again!
The stock recovery only sees the "Internal" SD card, so anything you put on your actual SD will not be detected by the recovery. Download a file manager from google play store. I don't remember which one I used in particular, but try Root Browser or ES File Manager. Copy the file from your External SD card into the Internal SD and try again. Hope this helps.
But... you say you don't know the password to the phone. I'm not sure what can be done besides factory reset...

I don't think you can flash cwm with stock recovery. If you aren't able to flash via Odin in download mode you are pretty short on options.

You can actually. That's how I did it. When I got this phone the USB to PC connection never worked, only for charging. I was disappointed that I'd be stuck with stock ROM, but I was able to install CWM via Stock Recovery.

Thanks for confirming. Sucks that the OP can't get it onto the internal, then.
If you google "a creative way to bypass pattern lock on android" the first result will show you where I got the idea from. (sorry, would have put a link here but the site won't let me)
that being said, unless the OP there is pulling our legs, it should be completely possible to access the external SD card from stock recovery as that's how he described he did it. now I don't know if stock recovery is the same on all Samsung android devices, but I would assume it likely is, or is at least close.
I'm almost sure if I had another t679 that I could get into, that I could format the card and have it work on the locked one. not sure if it's worth it to me though since at this point I'm mainly pursuing this for personal knowledge and notoriety lol. BTW thanks to all that provided insight thus far. here's to hoping someone has some additional information for me.
I have root and unlocked bootloader. I did an update of lg and thereafter blocked, do not know if this was the problem.
Install the CWM by room (room enox iodak08 +), I can enter the bootloader, installing, when reboot the sistem entering the boot but does not start with the system and back to CWM after being taken. I can not get into the room and I can get into CWM. I've done factory reset and wipecache, I returned instal to the room, and nothing, enters the boot but does not start with the room.
I'm in a tricky situation, I stopped to have a mobile phone and I stick one paperweights. Need a little help.

It has been stated time and time again that your must NEVER carry out a vendor OTA on a rooted or modified device. It causes a problem 90% of the time as the OTA has no flexibility to deal with something it isn't expecting to find - so you get exactly what you have.
Just be thankful that it is almost impossible to hard-brick our device or you really would have a paperweight. Instead you just need to search and read a little to get it back up and running.

You need to get your PC to recognise the phone, thats the first step in this repair (unless the usb port is broken, there's no reason why it wont recognise, whats your OS and version, usb 2 or 3?)
why not put cm10.1 on a microsd and flash it from there?

cmon, pay some attention you don't need to turn on the phone, or boot into the system itself to boot into s/w mode. now, there are tons (like 3 or 4 guides, plus many other topics opened by people with exact same problem like you) threads that tell you what to do (hint: figure out how to boot into s/w mode), so i'll let you search around for the guide.
I suggest using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682146
It's easier, faster and safer than flashing a .kdz file. (Plus, it tells you how to get into the s/w upgrade mode!)

I think this method also flashes a kdz, but does it automatically for you. But yeah, this one is easier than manually flashing. Thanks for posting it
Also, thiy method will format internal sd card. My suggestion is to do a data/system format from cwm before you go in to flashing a kdz, either manually or automatically, so you don't end up with formatted internal sd card
A big thanks to SimonTS, JoinTheRealms, Flying_Bear and balloon27. This is a fantastic forum and you guys are spectacular. Due to professional reasons only going back to the forum after seven days, I go to the sea and I'm without net.

For some devices devs have create a stock rom image intended to be loaded on an external sdcard. Devices with troubles booting fom a rom on the internal sdcard at times will boot from the external card.. When they do the user can then place a recovery flashable zip of the correct bootloader and modem on the device and flash such to restore the phone to working order. I think the i897 is one but I don't know that the i896 is.
