Galaxy S GT-I9000 not starting after using Oding to root

Hi everyone,
I was trying to root my Samsung GALAXY S GT-I9000 to install some custom roms. I followed this tutorial to install ClockWork via Odin:

everything went fine in Odin, no error messages, but my phone is stuck on the initial loading screen (that one with the samsung logo) and it's not loading properly.. I tried to wait like 10 minutes, but nothing changed..
How can I restore everything as it was before? Or flash properly a new rom??
Please help, I'm afraid I broke it..
Thank you in advance for any advice

Hello!
Can you get into download or recovery mode?
If you can go to recovery try wipe cache and if it doesnt work try wipe data but remember it deletes all apps!!

Don't worry, it is just a digestion problem (bootloop). CF-root doesn't work with every firmware. If yours wasn't compatible, bootloop is normal reaction. Check my last thread and there you can find step-by-by step guide how to unbrick it.

How do I know if it's compatible or not? What should I check?

Sorry for the late reply: anyway no, the only thing I could do was watch the phone reboot and reboot and reboot and reboot and, finally, reboot
Thank you again!

Great, mate- I'm glad it works again
CF-Root is made AMAIK for Gingerbread ROMs only, and if you have Froyo it is enough to flash SpeedMod root kernel that already features CWM recovery, Busybox and SU. You should always ready very carefully the first posts of the files you flash, so you will void many potential problems.
If you did it after my unbrick guide thread, backup your IMEI No as soon as you root your phone (described how to)
Just click "thanks" button beyond posts which were useful for you, it is our way to express it on this forum (and many us here are visiting the forum to help each other)

GT-I9000 blackout, can only go to download mode after Odin
I also tried rooting my GT-I9000 with Odin, I got a FAILED message and my phone will no longer boot, it can only go to download mode, so I tried restoring via Odin. Sometimes I get FAILED and 1 time got pass but the unit is still in the same condition, black out except to go into download mode. Please help.

[Q] Kinda odd bootloop (help ASAP, pls)

Sooo, I got a problem with my Galaxy Mini 2.
First, I wanted to flash Cm11 (by TheWhisp), but something went wrong during flashing process, and my device bootlooped.
I tried to go into recovery, but it didn't work.
Than I thought it might be a good idea to flash stock ROM via odin. I did it once in the past, with a succesful outcomes, so I fought it will work again.
This ended with a bootloop, only change was the logo during boot process. Than I tried to flash recovery but it didn't change anything.
So my phone is in bootloop, stock ROM flashing doesn't help, and I can't run recovery.
Any ideas how can I fix it?

[Q] Help! Unable to flash new recovery or MIUI 6 on MI3W

Hi,
I recently bought a Xiaomi MI3W with Android version 4.3 JLS36C, MIUI Version JXDCNAL2.0 and am unable to flash new recovery/new roms/miui version 6 either by UPDATER or by flashing through recovery!!! Please help I really want to customise my phone but I am not able to. The phone is rooted and ROOT apps are working fine. Please let me know if I can give any other information...Thanks
For some files, when I try to flash, it gets stuck on MI Recovery 2.0.1 screen the progress bar keeps moving from left to right but no flashing happens. Then I have to restart the phone forcibly. Also other times when I try to flash files it shows error "Install failed!". Please help!!!

Request someone to help please...id really appreciate it

Have you tried to flash cwm

Through rom manager

Use a computer and Download the miflash tool and the correct RECOVERY file for your phone. Flash the file using miflash software. Use your original usb lead to do this. doing this will return your phone to stock.

Hey, I had same problem, has your problem resolved now?

Soft-Bricked my SM-G870A

I was in the process of downgrading my phone from 5.1.1 to 4.4.2.
I started here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...to-root-g870aucu1aoa1-4-4-4-2-7-2015-t3025119
I accidentally flashed the second Kernel first and the then my phone wouldn't boot, just boot-looped to to the recovery, I tried to do a factory reset/wiped, but still had same issue, then I factory reset/wiped and then cleared the cache. Same issue. I have tried updating to stock 5.1.1 roms, 4.4.2 roms, stock rooted roms, I have tried to just about everything I can find online. I either get failures ranging from the following:
I'm trying to get my phone working again by flashing the stock firmware with odin3 (tried 3.9 and 3.10) but it fails every time and gives me the error "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 2 > Binary 1" while in download mode..
http://androidforums.com/threads/sm...wnload-recovery-still-work-cant-flash.930762/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/sm-g870a-samsung-s5-active-softbricked-t3161137
I have also tried this: http://www.droidviews.com/fix-status-7-error-while-installing-ota-update-or-roms/
since I was getting a status 7 error, but then I got another error after that (error is sideload package)
I can get to Custom OS download function and I can get to the boot recovery.
I honestly don't care if this phone is rooted or not, stock rom or not, but I need to get it back up and running, please help, Samsungs are new to me.

***UPDATE***
I just wanted to let everyone know that after about 30 different files, some through Odin, some through Recovery I finally got one to install and fix my AOS. The file that finally didn't fail to load in Recovery was Here: www androidfilehost com / ?w=search&s=g870a <--Add in the dots and remove the spaces, and make it a secure website.
It was more specifically G870A_OF3_tJ3_OTA.zip, it did fail something at the end of the recovery but it stayed on the screen for less than a second so I didn't see what failed but my phone is working now.
Hopefully one of those files will help someone else out.

I don't know if you've figured out by now, but you can't downgrade from 5.0+ to KitKat.

Hi there, Chosenbc!
I am glad to read, that you figured iout to unbrick your G870A. Now I want to go the same way and downloaded that specific file, you mentioned. I know, how to flash through Odin a tar-File, but how did you flash through recovery that zip-file ? Via ADB ? Or sd-card in recovery ?
Done! (Unbrick)

Worked for me too! Thanks Chosenbc!
BTW, I loaded it using the stock recovery. Took about 4 minutes to load and 2-3 more to boot up. Installs Android 5.1.1

I am having a the same issue. I was on a stock 5.1.1, didn't read that this kernel was for 4.2.2 Now my phone will not boot.
I have tried using ODIN to no success. Keeps failing every time I try to flash Stock Rom. I have tried probably 4 different stock..... Nothing. I have tried what you sugested, no succes. Can someone please help me get my phone out of Limbo..... SM-G870A PLEASE!!!

Im in the same boat. Trying the files from OP first. Hopefully one works. I presume we need to move the OP zip file to the sd card on the phone, and update from recovery mode on the phone?

I just got a SM-G870A from a buddy of mine, he says he made the same mistake as the OP. Tried going from PB3 to NE4. He says he tried Odin flashing system images, kernels, and bootloader.
The system recovery says OC5.
Do I need to walk my flashes up OC5-OF2 - OF2-OF3 - OF3-OJ3 to fix this soft brick??

Thank you Chosenbc!!!!!!!!!!!! after several days (more than 5 weeks) I could unbrick my SM-G870A and this was possible all because of you and who uploaded the working Rom. Thank you, thank you thank you! for making this post!

If you can boot into recovery then you can easily copy your data to PC with USB cable. Second you can flash supersu and magisk because rooted need to have root supported kernel or some times its depends on flashing recovery version and package. Third flash any custom kernel as per your current ROM version. Some more information about ROM is help full in settling things however above steps will be ok for successful boot.
