i suffered that alot when i was new to rooting and flashing, just try flashing a new stock firmware back to the phone from samfirmwares.com and see how you go,
actualy pre rooted firmware
firmware http://www.multiupload.com/YY0JBMUWBF
csc file http://www.multiupload.com/NRVCK6KYWD
512 pit file http://www.multiupload.com/I5WICSBFJ1
see how you go with that, although u may need to manually add youre providers apn settings in after though

Regarding the icon: flash the bootloaders(boot & Sbl) and a working kernel

Thanks for the posts ...fliptechnologies do i use odin to flash them files ? where does the firmware go ?(pda?). Does anyone know if anyone with the same problem has made a guide by any chance ?
thanks

there are apps which help you root your phone using adb
like SuperOneClick you might want to try it, or using a firmware with root as suggested
there is also an app which can be installed in your phone to root ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953)
but first you need to get a firmware in order to install that app
get an stock ROM like 2.2 froyo or 2.1 eclair, then try with the app

I'm trying to install cfroot/kernel/cust. rom but phone is rebooting all the time

Hi,
My friend bought used Galaxy S. He asked me if I can install any custom ROM on his device. First he has installed 2.3.6 XXJVT. I downloaded CF Root for XXJVT and plugged phone in Download Mode. During installation an error has occurred. Odin shows me "FAIL" on red background. When I'm trying to boot phone it displays me:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
I'm install stock ROM for Germany, 2.3.6 Value Pack, but this one hasn't got a CF. This ROM is XWJW3. I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34347160
I'm trying to install this kernel but after installation phone is rebooting all the time. I wanted to install CM9 via CWM, so I tried CWM and tried to flash it but during installation phone rebooted. Display shows me "SAMSUNG CYANOGENMOD", then - display shows recovery with red triangle and phonerebooted, then it shows me "SAMSUNG GALAXY S I9000". It loops all the time. After that I installed three files XEU with PIT 512 and CF Root for JW4, next I tried CWM and installed CM9 but phone rebooted again. My other friends also have SGS, but with battery. They have got model GT-I9000 but my friend's device model is GT-9000i.

you need to be sure which model you have, either its i9000 or i9001, they are two different models with different flashing procedure and ROM's. Best way is to check IMEI Check your IMEI here or here When you are not sure what model is your device.
For i9000 Follow this guide
For i9001 Follow this guide

Hi,
I installed some random firmware and it got installed. But then phone started looping in boot.
I searched xda and found another thread which i did odin and fixed boot loop.
But after that again to square 1. The actual issue is that as soon as the phone is started the apps, services like google.com.etc etc starts crashing and phone barely boots up. How do I fix this crashing ?
Please help.
Thanks.

[Tutorial] How to Unbrick, Flash, Downgrade, Root, Update i9000 from Froyo to Kit Kat
and flash the gingerbread stock ROM, if you have poor Mobile Network reception problem, you can change the modem for India later, so follow guide and flash with PIT and JVU ROM
or you can flash a rescue kit ( it is the same) If you have everything saved, its best you format your internal SD card for a clean install.

I may need some help with unbricking

edit: My phone is the SM-G800F
So I bought an S5 mini from ebay and verified it was all legit, legit packaging, tested via apps that check everything etc. Everything was saying all legitimate. It was defaulted to German region DBT. I thought everything was fine since during install I had set the phone up as UK English until it came to rebooting after encryption when the keyboard was not standard QWERTY, it was specifically German and since my password is more about pressing of certain on screen keys rather than the info being typed I could not get at my data. Well I downloaded the latest H3G firmware so that it should be in UK English on my own network most likely (My sim's network is 3)
This is what Odin shows:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now, the only difference this time, compared to flashing my S4 mini as I have done lots of times, is when I extracted the zip file for the firmware, 7zip complained about extra data after the payload... I updated to the latest 7zip and so I am not sure what's going on but Odin did not complain about any md5 hash breakage so that should have been fine. Also it came from a different site than I usually get. I got the firmware from two places and it seems the same, no hash breakage. I am downloading one now from sammobile which I think is where I got my S4 mini firmwares from.
Can you think of anything that would make this happen and what I could do to fix it? I tried Kies 3 but it just doesn't work, says something like no compatible devices and then when I try and do the emergency firmware recovery, the device does not show up in the list to even attempt anything.
I would appreciate some guidance on this.

Ok, I flashed the original German firmware and it is siccessful and wants me to set it up again as brand new BUT I need to flash the English firmware.
Is there any way I can flash my UK firmware (H3G) on this German S5 mini? Any extra options I need to select on Odin?
