[Q] My Galaxy mini/pop Bricked

Hi, I am new to this rooting thing...
While I was flashing my Galaxy S5570 with s5570DDKC1 (stock firmware downloaded from sammobile.com) using odin multi downloader, after successfully loading files in downloading mode it didn't restarted automatically.
Now my phone only works in dowbload mode not in recovery mode.
I had installed clockwork recovery mod but not starting in recovery mod..
Please help me to UNBRICK my phone.
Thanks in advance...

had you checked reboot option in odin
you were flashing ddkc1 so I think you are Indian
as ddkc1 is froyo fw you should not flash it over gingerbread instead flash ddkq7 as it is official gingerbread fw for galaxy mini you can also find it in sammonlbile

Flash the stock froyo before flashing GB ....
It wil work...
Search on google bukab1 for mini ull get the dwn link...
Sent from my GT-S5570 using XDA

Yes, I have once upgreaded it to GB 2.3.6
But I want to root my software but i was not able to root it. so i want to install froyo 2.2.1

if rooting is the problem then you should not downgrade
instead you can use stoneboytony's update.zip and can flash it in stock recovery in this way you can have root or
use superoneclick (PC) the second most easiest way to root android

[Q] how to install CWM on ace 2.2.1 stock rooted plz help very urgent

hi all
can any1 tell me how to install recovery on ace 2.2.1 rooted device?
searched a lot but cudnt find?
any link or instructions wud be helpful
thanks.

You need to be on gingerbread to flash CWM 4/5(I recommend CWM 5 for no errors during flashing)
Download the latest gingerbread firmware for your Phone and flash through Odin and after that you can put CWM recovery onto your Ace.
Otherwise the Best solution is to flash Custom ROMs.
But you will need to be on Gingerbread to flash Most of the released Custom ROMs so better flash a gingerbread stock ROM through Odin and then you are good to go.

You can flash CWM v4 on Odin if you're on Froyo

That is for GT-S5830C/i/M. Is no the same than: s5830/L/B

Get CF-Root adpation for Froyo, CWM 4 and Root.
Look in the all roms tweaks and kernels in the dev section

[Q] [i9000] [SOLVED] Upgrade to CM7.2.0

Here is my question: I have a SGS i9000 with froyo 2.2 stock and cf-root, by flashing cf-root i gained obviously root but also the recovery 2e that should be without signature verification. Now if i want to install CM7.2 can i just install it via recovery 2e by renaming it update.zip? or i will brick the phone? On Cm official wiki page about installing they say you need to have gingerbread installed but i'm on mac and i can't flash a gb rom because heimdall is not detecting the file, i also tried with a linux partition on my mac but it did not worked. to get root i used first z4root and then mobile odin to flash cf root with recovery 2e.
thanks in advance to who will help me!
PS: I also have a I9001(see signature) but the phone for wich i'm asking is a i9000!

download KIES for Mac from My Android collections link below, and upgrade your phone to Gingerbread 2.3.6 (KIES will do it automatically) than root it with a semaphore kernel to get CWM, before going on to ICS and than to JB...should be done in this manner , do not jump from GB to JB ( you will have less problems)

ok i will try it, but kies from samsung site is not working at all. and moreover i have this problem, i just want to go from froyo to CyanogenMod 7.2 (android 2.3.6 GB). without any intention to go to ICS or JB. Second thing, if i manage to update from kies then heimdall is going to recognise it? Because if not i can't flash semaphore. Last thing i should uroot the device to update from kies right?
Many thanks for your help!
new information: I have installed your version of kies, and it finally recognise the phone, but it say that the device do not support update via kies, what can i do? thanks
Second edit: i researched and now i know the problem is that i cf-rooted my phone. so how could i revert? to cf-root i have used mobile odin after gained SU with z4root. i would had avoided to flash that if i had know that today kies were to recognise my phone! please help me lso if it was a noob mistake.

Ok, since you have installed KIES and working , heimdall should also be working, IF not you can download a latest heimdall mac version, from earlier link to update to ginger bread 2.3.6, before CM..also backup efs. contacts, images etc first, IF you have CWM, you can even do a nandroid backup, before any upgrade .
Always best to do progressive upgrade as it will not complicate the upgrade by jumping from froyo to CM ( which is a custom ROM) . Best to READ the developers Flashing guidelines before upgrade too.
Flashing the gingerbread ROM will automatically remove your earlier CF root, just download your original Firmware for your region from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881 , than use a semaphore Kernel from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112908 this will give you root plus CWM for you to upgrade to CM 7.2
Do not jump, as you need Gingerbread bootloaders for upgrade to CM

Solved!

Ok the problem was with froyo secondary bootloader, that is not recognised by heimdall if connected to a mac, nor to a VM Linux on the same mac. so i had borrowed my neighbour's netbook with windows 7. installed heimdall there and everything went smoothly. Firstly i have flashed a new GB rom, 2.3.6, the newer eropean one, then flashed CF-root for that rom with integrated CWM 3.x.x.x. The only problem was that when i flashed from cwm CM7.2.0 i hade a boot loop, so i had to swith off the fone by long pressing the power botton, then i booted in recovery, now the recovery was cwm 5.x.x.x so i wiped data/factpry reset and wiped cache, from the new cwm 5.x.x.x reinstalled CM7.2.0's zip and the latest gapps, booted again and everything went smooth from there.
Thanks for your help!

How to unroot my Galaxy note from cm9

Hello friends,
I'm using cm9 rom on my Samung Galaxy Note , now i wanna go back to stock rom and also wanna unroot my device.. can i just flash the stock rom and kernels directly or do i need to go through some other process.. and one more query is that , odin is not detecting my phone , so how can i flash the stock kernel and rom? ? reply Asap.. Thanks in advance

Yes flash straight way Stock GB ROM with Odin, then wipe cache and data.
Odin is not detecting then it is issue of driver. Uninstall kies and just install driver (find it from Toolbox on my signature)

Just flash stock GB rom using pc odin and you will be back to stock (unrooted as well). No need to flash kernel separately as flashing stock GB will also change kernel to stock. After flashing GB rom, you can either use odin to update to ICS or can use kies or OTA.
EDIT- Checked previous posts after posting mine

@safijunaid
Just like the previous posts said, you need to remove PC KIES completely from your PC and reinstall it again. The problem on PC ODIN not detecting your phone is that, your PC might have some corrupted Samsung/adb drivers (needed by PC ODIN as well), Reinstalling PC KIES will reinstall those corrupted or missing Samsung drivers on your PC, hence, next time you plug back your phone to connect to your PC, PC Odin will rightly detect it already. (It would have a yellow box :COM on it whiche means it had already detected your device).

visit My Android Collections, look under unlock & Root, you have the option of using an app or by using your PC or flashing a CF Root or semaphore Kernel.

try this, it worked for me.
1st:
Install or Unbrick 2.3.6 Gingerbread in Samsung Galaxy S i9000
youtube.com/watch?v=DDg4oyRNets
2nd
Root 2.3.6 Gingerbread Samsung Galaxy S i9000
youtube.com/watch?v=Pq_2Z1drKzc
and i even maked my I9000 to android 4.2.1
Install 4.2.1 Jelly Bean in Samsung Galaxy S i9000 by Cenouralm
youtube.com/watch?v=LP9EomkF06c
All worked for me

I managed to root and install CWM without using a computer, here's how I did it... I was on gingerbread 2.3.6 so I installed Framaroot v1.5.2 to get root as Mobile ODIN needs root and won't work without it. link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130276 then I installed Mobile ODIN (free in market) and the Mobile ODIN flash kernal here http://bit.ly/17kEetk next I download CF-Root here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108 unzipped CF-Root and placed it in Mobile ODIN, when you open mobile ODIN it'll say you need to download extra data, but it's only if you're flashing firmware, you don't need to download the extra data just for flashing kernels so ignore it... flash it and Mobile ODIN will install CF-Root then it'll auto reboot... once rebooted, go into recovery mod and you should now have CWM as well as Root access... hope that helps.

(1st:
1.1 Follow Cyanogen mods install wiki and download the Usb-driver(remember to reboot after) and the other stuff(no need for the android sdk). Youll have to google for heimdall-frontend
1.2 Use heimdall frontend to install 2.3.6 Gingerbread(XWJVZ_heimdall.tar for i9000) and dont freak out if mobile data is not working, it will work after step 3.)
as odin didnt recognize my soft bricked device, id stick to heimdall.
2nd:
follow cyanogenmods wiki advice and use heimdall to install cwm recovery, dont forget to visit your phones settings and put USB-debug on.
3rd:
a)
use your phone to download the rom-image +gapps you want. Boot to recovery, perform wipes and install.
or
b)
or if you want to stay with 2.3.6---> flash a working modem from recovery if its not working properly.
