[Q] Did I brick my SGS BT-I9000?

I Have a similar problem as posted by someone else - but I can't reply in that thread yet so here it is:
Also SGS GT-I9000 - now stuck on white logo screen.
What I have done:
- phone was slow and very laggy so I wanted to install new ROM
- found out that 3bc didn't work so tried to fix that using a guide from SamsungGalaxySforums based on one from XDA (tried to post the link, but forum rules won't let me).
- now download mode works but recovery mode still doesn't.
- when rebooting without being attached to laptop it showed funny coloured lines first
- I tried this whole thing again and now my phone is stuck on white logo screen. Still able to get into download mode and flash, but no booting phone.
Any ideas? Should I flash a different bootloader?
EDIT: I had tried the Aries_P-SBL.tar.md5 bootloader and only got coloured lines.
Now using the EZboot-GingerBread-1.0.tar.md5 bootloader and getting a bootloader screen. Now making a backup of all my data first.
EDIT: After backup still hangs at white Galaxy S screen - so still no working phone! Ideas?

Turn off your phone and reboot into the recovery mode by pressing Volume UP+ Home + Power.
Then when in the recovery, select Wipe Data and Cache. Reboot when done. You should be up and running. Also, first boot may take a while so be patient.

It says in his post, recovery wont work, only download.
Sounds to me he has screwed up the bootloader.
Now you've done this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1089989
I now suggest you boot to download and flash a stock rom using ODIN.

just flash stock Rom using Odin and than you can flash what you want

flash gingerbread via odin.
then install cwm recovery 4
then install cwm 5
wipe data and cache before and after flashin a new rom of ur choice...

Lol. I faced this problem long time back. Do this-
Flash stock Rom with help of Odin.
After it tells pass, you ll boot loop. Its normal.
Remove usb.
Remove battery and put it back while its boot looping.
Go to "Stock Recovery" and then clear user data and cache.
Reboot and wait. Might take around 1min-5min max. Good luck.

Didn't Flash Anything, However got a Bootloop

Hi.
I have Cyanogenmod 10 installed in my Galaxy S for 2-3 Weeks. My phone had no problem at all in this period. I haven't flashed anything since and didn't change or install any theme. Made just some recent market updates (Whatsapp etc.) My phone got stuck today in bootloop while it was in my pocket. It boots until Cyanogenmod logo (Not boot animation) and then resets. I can not boot into recovery with 3 button combination and I can't turn off my phone. I can only boot into download mode if I have usb cable plugged. I know it's possible to flash a new rom via odin but I don't want to lose my data. What could I do to come out of boot loop?
Thanks in advance

R: Didn't Flash Anything, However got a Bootloop
I had the same issue, luckily i had old backup files in the phone, as far as I know the only way to save the phone is to flash a rom via Odin

Goto recovery using the 3 button combi (Press Volume Up + Home + Power till you see the boot screen), select data wipe/factory restore & wipe cache, reboot. This should solve your problem...

I tried that and my phone worked for about 1 minute then the bootloop starts again

N7000 recovery lost after update to cyanogenmod 10.2

Hi and good morning,
after i flash Cyanogenmod 10.2 my phone lose the recovery, that exacly what i did:
Flash this stock kernel with odin (PDA only): N7000XXLSZ_N7000XXLSO_N7000ITVLS4_HOME.tar.md5 (everything ok)
Flash this recovery from the stock recovery (Vol+/HomeButton/Power) : PhilZ-cwm6-XXLSZ-OXA-5.00.5-signed.zip (everything ok)
Reboot phone and reboot in my new recovery (everything ok)
Wipe data / factory reset (everything ok)
Flash this rom : cm-10.2-20130824-NIGHTLY-n7000.zip (everything ok)
Flash this gapps : gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip (everything ok)
Turn on the phone, configure the initial setup and everithing seems to be ok
But when i press the power button i only have turn off option (no reboot, airplane mode, profiles...)
Try to go to recovery: i turn off my phone, Vol+, Home button, Power button and nothing appends, after the initial n7000 logo nothing appears, only black screen.
But the download mode is safe, i can came back to the original stock with odin (flashing the pda only)
If someone has an idea, i finished mine...
Thanks

That's a bug with that release. Follow the rom support thread and you'd know that.

You can flash a newer nightly that has the recovery but fixed via mobile Odin or a similar program

[Q] Stuck in first Cyanogenmod boot?

Hi guys, first time posting here, sorry if a question like this has already been asked but I've looked around and haven't managed to solve my problem yet.
So I have rooted my Samsung Galaxy Mini II (GT-S6500T) and used Odin 3.07 to install ClockworkMod 6.0.3.2 onto it; I then booted it into recovery mode and installed ZIP from SD card, selected CyanogenMod 10.2 ("cm-10.2-20131202-UNOFFICIAL-jenad.zip"), followed instructions etc. installed Google Apps and all that.
Now, when I selected to start up the phone again, it just gets stuck in the Cyanogenmod boot screen, the blue arrow just circles around on and on (I understand that it usually takes a long time but I don't think it's meant to take over half an hour... also, every now and then I notice it kind of makes a low vibrate sound?).
I've read that to fix it you can reboot it into recovery mode and reflash it but the problem is I can't even get into the recovery mode. If I force the phone off (e.g. by removing battery) and hold Vol Up + Vol Down + Home + Power to boot recovery mode, nothing happens. If I just hold Power it starts up and goes straight into boot sequence.
I do have a backup of my previous settings and all that saved - one saved on my external SD card and the same file saved on my computer, so if I can somehow load that back it would be great I guess.

I mentioned earlier I cannot enter recovery mode. When I hold the button combination to go into it, nothing happens.
Earlier I managed to get into download mode (Vol Down + Home + Power) and I reflashed a stock firmware, but now my phone is stuck in a boot loop, it just shows the Samsung screen and vibrates every now and then. I still cannot access recovery mode.

Managed to fix the problem but thanks for the help anyway. Followed one of the solutions here and removed everything, held power for 1 min, plugged my phone into the computer and managed to get into recovery mode. From there I did full wipe, wipe cache, wipe Dalvik cache, format /system (probably only necessary to do full wipe but I dunno), then restarted into download mode and used Odin to reflash stock rom, then reloaded recovery mode and reloaded my backup.
edit: My question now is, I'm not sure what I've done wrong in the process of installing Cyanogenmod to screw up this badly. Is it absolutely necessary to format /system before installing it? I did do full wipe, cache and Dalvik cache and mounted /system prior to rebooting and loading Cyanogenmod.

what i do > install rom > reboot > install google apps .. I had this problem aswell a while ago. what also can be the problem is when u don't format correctly..

Have You as well was unable to go into recovery mode and stuck on bootloop ? One thing I can do is to use Odin, tried to flash some stock firmware with no result. Still no acces to recovery and still Samsung logo loop. I searched, read many topics but nothing helped. Is there something except Riff Jig that could be done ? Thanks for response

-Flash stock rom via Odin
-Flash cwm via Odin
-Pull out battery
-Connect phone to pc (without battery)
-Wait until screen turns on
-Hold recovery combo keys until samsung logo shows (home+volup +voldown +power)
-put battery back quickly
-You should be in recovery now :wipe data, cache, dalvik cache
-Reboot.
I was in similar situation, if not identical. This worked for me. Good luck.
Edit: I didn't see you fixed it already. Ignore the post.
