I wanted to root my Samsung galaxy s i9000 (gingerbread) so i followed the procedure that i found on the dkszone "How To Root Samsung Galaxy S On Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread I9000 XXJVK ROM" (I can't post a lik). It looked like it worked but after I turned on wi fi it started rebooting constantly. I removed the battery and reinserted it. After I turned it on, it was the same situation (rebooting). I than flashed it with odin founded on tread "Stuck on main screen after root, keeps rebooting" on this site (pit512 was uploaded with PIT button, repart was chacked).
Now it is dead! Please help me.
Flash 2.2 with bootloaders, then flash Stock 2.3 or any 2.3 rom
if you cant get into download mode u have to try it via jig-method to get into download mode.
if you're in download mode reflash with some stock-rom or darkys ressurection-rom.
be sure you tick on repartition and use the 512-pit file.
u may follow this guide: http://www.darkyrom.com/community/i...-darkyrom-gingerbread-jvh-noob-friendly.3080/
IT WORKED!! I managed to flash it with ginger ROM for SGS. The problem was to get into the download mode.
Thanks guys.
Hello,
I own a I-897 Captivate model, and I had a custom 2.3.4 gignerbread rom recently..
Latley I tried to move to cognition becuase the other rom did problems for me..
So I followed the guide, and when I first flashed the kernel I wasn't using any pit file..
So it's just stuck on odin with nothing happening, so I closed odin and rebooted my phone.
Then the phone showed me a logo with phone and computer with X between them.
So I flashed again using the pit then I got to the recovery, where I tried to install the cognition 5.2 without succes, it finished the install, but when I rebooted it just kept switching between the boot screen of AT&T and Galaxy S GT I9000..
So I tried to use my Nandroid backup, but it just won't work, I tried to install it manually and still it isn't working..
So I tried to instal my previous rom and succeeded, but now when I reboot it it just loading the Talon logo, finishes it and stuck on the end of the loading without any action...
So, I can use the download mode and odin.
What should I do?
Thank you very much.
What build number is your phone

I have read tons of time,
I tried to install Cyanogenmod, but it seems when I get to the recovery it doesn't work..
I flashed the recovery through CWM, but its very limited and blue not bright green or yellow as always.
I only got 4 options:
Reboot
Re-Install packges
Wipe user data
Wipe cahce
How do I get my recovery work properly?
That's not CMW that's the regular 3e recovery. You'll need to flash a kernel with CMW built in or one with an alternate recovery (I usually use an Onix kernel)

I've flashed a full gingerbread stock rom, with boot loaders and it works fine,
but now I can't get to the download mode, so I cant flash the rooted kernel..
I'm stucked unrooted, How can I root it?
It's Gingerbread 2.3.3 UCKF1 Build stock rom.
Pull out your battery, Sim, and SD card. Plug your usb cable into a usb port on the back of your computer then plug it into your phone. Hold volume up and down then reinsert your battery, should boot into download mode.

so i have been running Paranoid android for a while, and wanted to try this out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2051904
flashed the latest cm10.1 kernel, and then formated cache, dalvic, battery stats, etc.
then i managed to reboot before i had flashed the new rom and got stuck in bootloop. could not access CWM any more
after this i downloaded odin after a few forum reads, and flashed different versions of CWM to see if i could get back in to flash the rom.
the latest one i have in it is this:
http://fs1.d-h.st/download/00033/pQK/GT-I9100_JB_ClockworkMod-Recovery_6.0.2.9.tar
as it was recommended in some un-brick thread. still no access to CWM
after this i flashed a stock rom, as i could not find any .md5 or .tar roms to use with odin, and i got at least a samsung logo on hte screen, before i got back to boot screen and was stuck there again.
CWM still not working, or showing up in any way.
out of obvious options i now tried flashing the pit file trough odin from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
and after this the samsung boot logo did not show up anymore. only boot loop
i am now going to try and download the older ginger bread rom and flash it trough odin, but i got no idea if it will make any difference.
otherwise phone goes to download mode just fine, and i got working drivers in windows trough kies.
im quite new to this, and dont really know what would work from here. ill end up hard bricking the phone if i don't get some help, and the trash can will be my n7000 next home.
any advice is welcome

EDIT:
flashing official rom again after the pit file acrually gave me a working phone again. also i now got 50 gb of drop box storrage for free, so thats nice
Hi
My stock JB official unrooted rom suddenly went to a bootloop. I looked up online for solutions and flashed an official JB ROM for my phone and Odin failed to flash it. I tried Philz recovery but Odin failed to flash it. I got a yellow triangle which I was able to removie through Odin. Currently my phone is stuck on the splash screen. Recovery doesn't work. Odin fails when I try to reflash with a md5.tar file. Please experts help me with my problem. would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.
Hi guys,
So after many combinations of uploading custom roms to my phone I've failed. I've tried to install UltimateROM on stock rom but before that I had to install TWRP/CWM, and I installed this file (it's attached below), so it only destroyed partitions in my phone. Right now I can boot into stock ROM but everything seems to shut down in a while. Also I can boot into recovery and download mode. However in recovery mode phone can't find /data /cache and something else. I've also tried to install stock rom again using ODIN, but I get a message "There is no pit file". So my stock rom is a I8160XXNB1_I8160OXXNB4_HOME.tar and my phone model is GT-I8160. (Download link for this faulty modification "https://drive.google.com/open?id=1XZGuwn9vJD8mUMH0CP2czM8JjY_MjoYa"
Please help guys, and thanks in advance !
