[Q] i9001 stuck in bootloop after updating

Hello guys, I've updated my SG+ to the latest firmware (XXKQ1) using ODIN over my old firmware (I didn't want to lose any settings/apps, sorry noob). My phone just started giving me forced app ending errors and now it's stuck in the bootloop (animation).
Any sugestion would be helpful! I would love a solution that would not require a total wipe of my settings/pics/etc.

try to get in download mode again by pressing volume button down, home button and power button. Open Odin select the firmware you downloaded as onepackage file and flash again but i think your pics and stuff like that will be gone.

Usually it should boot normally after a flash, without resetting anyway. But it helps in 90% to reset your device, maybe it doesn't boot up because you didn't resetted it. So im sorry to say that but I think you have to do that, or flash the firmware you had before..
For resetting you can go into the recovery mode (by pressing vol+ and power button, then when the "android out of the box" appears release these buttons and press the menu softbutton), then choose wipe data/factory reset or something like this. ^^

This doesn't seems to be solved.
I have the same problem, I did factory reset, formatted /system, wipe cache, dalvik, after updating I fixed permissions, but the phone is still on bootloop.
I did: RemICS 1.3 and CyanogenMod 9 with CWM 5.5.0.4. Always bootloop.

Any help?
The only ROM that is working is the original one from samfirmware.com.

I'm sorry for post under the post, but I wanted to go this topic to the top, so anybody with this issue would see it.
I have tested one solution and it help with me:
Before uploading CWM into the Phone, format external sdcard. After that upload on external sdcard the zip archive with ROM and upload CWM with Odin.
After going to recovery mode and installing the ROM (I uploaded RemICS 1.3a), everything work just fine.

bootloop

The easiest to start with CF-Root. CF-Root roots your phone & installs all the necessary stuff for flashing. You will need Odin & possibly a stock rom for your phone. These can be downloaded from http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
Remember always do factory wipe & clear cache before & after flashing. Also make sure to do a back up of your stock rom before flashing anything. Also make a back up of EFS Folder in case your IMEI number is corrupted.
I recommend connecting your phone to your pc after installing CF-Root & copying everything that is on the internal sd card onto your pc.
Instructions in first post. It is long and can be confusing but if you read it carefully it is all quite easy.
Next go here (Team ICSSGS) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1398223
Instructions are in first post of thread. (Below instruction copied from first post of link)
Flashing Instructions
If you are flashing from another rom.
1. Flash ROM(new script should handle coming from any ROM, you also need gingerbread bootloaders)
If you are upgrading from an earlier build.
1. Flash the newest build in CWM.
If you have rebooted and your phone will not go past the kernel screen.
1. Boot into CWM and wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition.
2. Reflash the appropriate kernel.
3. Reboot.
If the flashing procedure didn't quite go to plan, please follow this guide
After this install this kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468795
Again all instructions on first post of thread.

Please check if you're cf-rooted.
If you are, go this website : http://get.cm/?device=galaxysmtd and download the latest cm9 nightly .zip file.
Off your phone, Go into recovery mode, Wipe cache , factory reset and select the cm9 file from your sd card and install it.
YOU ARE DONE

Reply this
1. Where you find cwm.zip can you link me that page (not file)
2.Are you able to entre in download mode
3.You were on which ROM while doing this?

i downloaded cwm.zip with the busybox from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647148
yes i can enter the download mode
i am on the stock ics rom (which i upgraded the 2.3 to it)
please help me
and thanks for the fast reply

First you didn't know that zip is not available now, and you must have this which you downloaded earlier, that zip is abandonas it proved to use unsafe and can brick device.
Not only that, you souldn't have to wipe anything on stock ICS.
Anyway if you are able to enter download mode then flash any GB ROM you have already with you, otherwise download from my signature (pre rooted) and flash with Odin

ok i wasn't know that, anyway i downloaded odin, what did i need else? what you mean by "download from my signature (pre rooted) and flash with Odin"?
i didn't understand this sentence, did it mean that i need specific type of rom to flash it from odin?
thank you a lot

Yes download this
http://d-h.st/HJM
Extract it and flash with PC odin.

please reply thanks
with my respect

See everything is on your luck, I hope you get device working again with above said ROM.
But remember even after flashing ROM successfully, it may not boot up, dont worry. enter to recovery(vol up+hole+power) and wipe cache, delvik cache and data. then it should fine.
But if while flashing ROM, if it stuck then your luck is not with you and chances will be high you have bricked device.
Let report back, n Me or someone will guide you for next step.

if it is depends on my luck, so it is a problem anyway thank u a lot and wish me a good luck.

B'coz what you did was totally wrong and risky, and if any damage you had can only rule out once your device gets life again. So pray before flashing and GoodLuck from ourside.

yes it was been a wrong, and i didn't have the enough experience to do like this step,
i install the ore rooted rom (in your signature) and i flash it, before it finish flashing it stop and then give an error, and when i turn on the phone to the recovery mode it give a message "firmware upgrade encourtted an issue, please select recovery mode is kies and try again" what can i do please.
thanks

You should have noted down the error on that flash before you went to recovery mode. Every error is an essential part and you should take a note of it as this can lessen your upgrade issues.
So here's what your going to do. Turn the phone to Airplane Mode.
Try to reflash again the pre prooted GB room in download mode Once your successful doing it, download stock ICS firmware (in your region) from www.samfirmware.com. Don't use OTA updates as this will mostly fail. Just use PC KIES to update your phone back to 4.0.4 ICS.
Take it one step at a time and again next time, remember try not to be in a hurry doing it. It takes patience and a bit of luck in flashing and upgrading.

Yes as above said, reflash ROM by putting device in download mode

hello again
in the begining thank you for your help
i fixed my phone, in a shop specialized for these cases but i dont know how.
and my phone now returned to the stock ics rom.4.0.3
i would ask if i can flash a custom rom (jelly bean 4.1 for example) and what are the safety steps that can i follow to avoid any another brick to my phone? what do you advise?
thanks again.

if u on ics u need to flash a safe kernel like philz or hydracore. that's it. Now u r good to go

Is there any danger if i flash any of the kernels u mentioned? And does the phone remain working after i flash the kernel? And after i flash the kernel what is the next step? Flash the rom? Or there is any step required before?
Thanks a lot

yes the phone will work after flashing any of the mentioned kernels.
philz is the best for ics as it can be installed from stock recovery and it's safe and gives u root and cwm
then u can boot into cwm and do a factory reset format system, data, wipe cache and dalvik then install the new rom.

I use JB

Odin still says "RESET" then about 5-10 minutes it become "PASS"
but still my phone is stuck
am i need flash it with other rom?
anyway i get some problem, i can open my recovery but when i press my power button it cannot select any of recovery menu. But i still can navigate wiht Volume button

u can open the recovey so u dont need to worry
firstly do a complete wipe of all user and system data
if u are on plilz recovery there is a option to do so in the wipe data factory reset option called "clean to install a new rom" do it
thenif u have a official jb 4.1.2 firmware flash it via odin if u want to go back to stock or there are many kk roms and customized 4.1.2 roms available here do a research and flash whatever u like

You currently have the stock recovery, not Philz.
Go into your current recovery and go to factory reset/data wipe (use the volume up and down keys), to select it use the power button. Once you have factory reseted your device, reboot.
If that doesn't fix it then do the following:
Download any recent Philz Kernel for JB from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191
Copy that to your external sd card (go into recovery and connect your Note to your PC or if that doesn't work, do it through a different phone or an microsd card reader). Flash that file in the stock recovery, reboot to recovery again. Once you have philz, perform a full wipe (you should have that option in factory reset/data wipe otherwise wipe /system /preload /data). Once that is done, reflash with Odin and then again: go to the stock recovery and perform a factory reset and reboot, now it should be working.
