[Q] Samsung Galaxy S stuck in continues reboot loop

Phone: Galaxy S I9000 SGH-959V
Carrier: T-Mobil
Original firmware: Froyo (rooted)
Upgraded firmware: Gingerbread 2.3.6
Issue:
during attempted rooting of 2.3.6 using Odin 1.82 and sImage file under PDA, incurred failure during install.
phone was stuck with image of a phone and PC with ! in between.
got it out of that and now the phone is stuck in continous reboot loop.
I took the battery out and went into hard reboot mode. However, I CAN NOT restore factory settings because it will not acknowledge when I press home key and/or power key.
Please help!!!

You must have used odin to upgrade to 2.3.6 so go back into download mode and reflash that. Then flash something like semaphore to root. Maybe a good idea to post what files you are flashing first.

You must press Vol up+Home+Power for recovery or Vol Down+Home+Power for download

Can you enter to the download mode?
It happened to me one time, but not exactly how you tell it. While flashing with Odin, it stuck on the first step (something like factory, I don't remember), and I unplugged the phone and it was in a continuous loop with the first logo (Samsung Galaxy S I 9000 etc...). Then I entered to the download mode and reflashed again with Odin, then now was fine.
Sorry for my bad English.

try reflashing it again in odin with stock 2.3.6 firmware. reboot.
flash a kernel (semaphore) in odin.

Boot Loop

Hi.. I am little new with Note with ICS

Tried it with pluged in to PC as well.
Any help will be appreciated

Hello abdurm, could you tell us your current firmware? You would require to give us details from Settings > About phone.
Also, did you try flashing anything? If so, what was it?
By pressing the Volume Down button + Home button + Power button simultaneously, does your device enter Download mode?

It dosen give me enough time to check firmware version, it reboots. It is on ICS. It is stock and I have not tried fashing or anything.
Yes it goes in download mode by pressing Volume Down button + Home button + Power button simultaneously.

Flash gingerbread rom in PC ODIN only and it will automatically reboot by itself but if still stuck in samsung logo go to recovery mode and wipe data and cache.

Download pre rooted gb rom from my signature and flash it via pc odin. Your phone must be in download mode and don't change any settings in pc odin.

Thank you very much. Just one last thing I dont have to be rooted to instal this ROM and it is ok to flash directly from ICS . Just downloadFilename: SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.zip and flash it. And it will leave me with GB?

Apologies abdurm, I foolishly presumed you would have made a note of your device's firmware details at some point in the past. It was stupid of me to ask you for the said information.

1] Download the pre-rooted stock Gingerbread firmware, SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.zip and extract it to get the SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar file.
2] After doing so, run PC ODIN, select the PDA tab in it and point to the extracted file (SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar). Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time will be selected by default. Do not select anything else.
3] Put your device in Download Mode and then connect it to your PC via the USB cable. The ID:COM label in PC ODIN will turn yellow indicating your device is connected and recognised.
4] Click on the Start button in PC ODIN and wait for the label above ID:COM to say Pass. After it does so, disconnect your device from your PC.
Your device will reboot and you will be on a stock Gingerbread firmware with root privilege.

Hello again abdurm, I am glad to learn your device is up and running again. :highfive:
Now that you are on a rooted firmware, I would advice you not to avail an OTA update as there is a very high likelihood of it breaking/undoing the root privilege.
Personally, I have not ventured into Ice Cream Sandwich yet and thus I have no right to guide you with the process of acquiring it. But, based on your quoted post may I ask you if you desire to have stock Ice Cream Sandwich with or without root privilege?
I recommend you thoroughly read dr.ketan's threads which explain the subject at hand.

[Q] Galaxy Notescreen problem

After upgrad my mum's Galaxy Note ( from HK ) to Android 4.1.2, the screen can't turn on!!
After I press the power button to turn it on, the GT-N7000 logo will show for a while and than the screen just wnt all dark and nothing
When I try to go to recovery mode, the same situation appear
But when I go to download mode, is all find
Can anybody help me plz !!

How did you upgrade, odin, OTA, kies?

You can go into download mode.
So: Download a stock Rom (the JB release for Hongkong) and install it with PC Odin.
If you have errors in Odin tell us.
Or maybe everything is ok and after that your mum has a working device and a lovely sun again.

Hello FixMyProblems, thank you for the guide.
I have a problem, when i press Volume Down + Home + Power, nothing happens, than i pressed Volume Up + Home + Power, and the Odin recognized my phone, and i do everything as you say in the first post, but Odin stuks on: "<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..".

I have the same problem. as @kenshiro1.
No matter what I try, my device is always being recognised but downloading stuff to it always fails. It just hangs everytime. I also tried with Kies but there I'm always stuck at the "connecting" screen. I really don't know what to try anymore...

[Q] Failed OTA update, where do I go from here

Please forgive the baby questions from an Android Newbie.
I used the phone to check for software updates, one was available - I believe from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2, I selected install the update, and now I just get a flashing android symbol.
I have tried to connect to Kies to do a recovery, but I cannot connect,afater a long "trying to connect" I am getting the message "device unresponsive please reboot", I have updated to the latest version of Kies, tried different cables and different ports.
I can reboot the phone into download mode but do not see any of the other options that are supposed to be available. Kies does not connect in either download or flashing Android symbol mode
Suggestions as to where I go from here are welcome.

Do a factory reset from recovery. Press vol up+home+power button
You're still safe if you still can see download mode.
If resetting doesn't help then download firmware from sammobile or from here http://www.officialrom.com/samsung/GT-N7000/ and flash through odin

But the Odin solution worked like a dream. many thanks
