I bought a used Gear S off ebay which came with Cyanogenmod.
Since I want the original rom back, I downloaded it using Samfirm.
I flashed the file "R750XXU2BOL2_R750OXA2BOL2_R750XXU2BOG2_HOME.tar" with Odin in download mode.
The watch reboots but only shows the Gear S logo, then turns off, turns on again with the logo, turns off... and so on...
I tried booting into recovery, but thats the same thing. I can't go into recovery..
What did I do wrong? Did I downloaded the wrong rom ?
I have the same problem, the watch is looping on boot only shows Samsung Gear S logo. I will send the watch to a tech guy that can repair and I will pay also.

My i9000 gets stuck at the GalaxyS boot logo every time I try to start it.
First it shows the Samsung boot logo, then the logo of my provider (Drei) and then it gets stuck at the S logo. After some time the screen goes off but the phone stays on (the buttons light up when I touch the phone).
I read about others having the same issue but I can't even go into recovery or download mode.I tried several three button combinations but every single one gets to the same result-> the samsung logo shows over and over.
Maybe you know how to fix it?
Thank you.
P.S.: I'm sorry for my bad english.
First you'll need to state what you did to cause that to happen?

A longer time ago I rooted it and applied the One Click Lag Fix.
Everything worked fine.
But today I installed SGS-Tools from the market, installed the hacked camera and suddenly there was no camera installed at all.
I downloaded a Galaxy S camera apk and tried to install it but it couldn't install it.
Then I installed busybox and wanted to restart the phone but it won't start again.
ok, so i got this phone from a classmate. very nice: i9001.
problem is, the thing is stuck in download mode... wouldn't boot any other way.
i think, just reflash the rom and it will work again.
so i get it to be recognised by odin, flash the rom, and the thing starts getting stuck at samsung logo.
so i go to samsung service and they do the exact same thing. with the same results. since the phone had been dropped at one time, no warranty.
i can't let go, so i decide to flash CWM. HEY! the thing starts booting
but now it just reboots instantly after 2mins of usage.
does anyone have suggestions on what to try next?
currently i got it back to stock everything.
My gear was rooted on Null 22.1 with no problems at all. I wanted to go back to stock. So I used Odin to go back to the V700XXUAMK7 United kingdon version and I get hung up at the samsung screen. I waited maybe 10 minutes the I just restarted the phone and same thing happens. It gets to the Samsung screen and that's it. I live in California, United states.
So I downloaded the XAR version on bell south and flashed through OdIn and I get the same thing happening as above. It wont get past the Samsung screen, when it reboots. I read around the threads and some say to try Odin 3.7. I was using Odin 3.9. No result the same thing is happening after I glash, It boots up I see the blue swirl thing then it gets to the Samsung screen and stays there. Then after like 10 minutes the screen goes off and I see a orange battery charging but thats it. I wont load the stock ROM.
What do you recommend I do. I know its not bricked. I can get into Download mode. and reflash but when I do it wont do past the samsung screen.
Thanks in Advance

I figured it out, All I had to do was reboot into recovery and thats it.
Hi! Couple days ago, my phone just turned off on its own. I couldn't turn it on, nor could I charge it. Nothing happened when I connect the charger. I didn't touch it for a day or two and then when I tried to turn it on, it tried to boot up, but it just vibrated shortly and only showed initial Samsung logo and then it restarted. That loop of showing only the logo and restarting then happens continuously. I can't turn off the phone using the power button, I have to pull out the battery. When I re-insert the battery, phone automatically turns on, shows the logo and then restarst again and again and again...
I have found some suggestions to try to flash the phone with custom ROM. I tried flashing CyanogenMod using Odin. Odin displays the message that everything went OK, but phone again just boots up to the Samsung logo and then restarts continuously. After that, I have tried several other ROMs using several versions of each. Same thing happens. Odin says that process went OK, but phone again won't boot.
Does anyone have any suggestions what else should I try?
Maybe try to flash all stock files via Odin?
I tried that, too, but same thing happens. Anyway, it looks like it might be some hardware problem. I took the phone to the repair shop and they also tried installing stock and custom roms, but the phone just won't start. They said it's probably some falty hardware that's causing the problem.
Try to turn it on plugged to charger.
Something similar happened to my phone so I followed this guide, then did a recovery of my back up

janota241, same thing happens when it's on charger, after Samsung logo, it turns off and then it turns on, then it turns off at Samsung logo and so on and so on...
IsReal8a, I tried that guide, but I can't access recovery mode, though I can access download mode. When I try to access recovery mode, phone just get stuck at Samsung logo for about minute or two and then it turns itself off.
I have the exact same issue as you do.
Maybe you can replace the battery, i just suggest

So, I bought a used Galaxy Gear the other day, and while reading up on it, I realized that it was never updated to the Tizen update. Kies didn't want to update it, so I looked into flashing it myself. I rooted the device, and everything seemed fine. Once I attempted to go into the new recovery mode, though, it would just reboot the device into the normal Android interface. I tried again to flash the proper ROM using Odin3, but now the device seems to be stuck on the Downloading... screen. When I attempt to restart the device by holding the power button, it turns off for a second, shows a grainy image of the Downloading screen, then goes back into the full Downloading screen.
Anything I can do about this, or is the device broken?
