Hi...
I have no idea how exatly how, but I might have bricked my galaxy. I installed LineageOS 19 and got the recent update and ofc. it didn't boot after (bootloop). I wiped it using twrp and installed the "first" version I tried again. Will boot untill I try installing gapps.
I have looked around and tried restoring using odin. The Download Mode screen says "unsupported version" in the cornor.
Soo now I'm looking for someone with a backup with a stock firmware so I can use that to get everything working again

I am sorry if this is asked earlier. couldnt find such a thread.
I have a samsung galaxy s i9000. i installed cm 10.0.0 stable on it yesterday upgrading from stock 2.3.5.
but because i could not connect to internet via network, i decided on restoring my backup of stock which was made in different version of cwm and while recovering it, it asked me that the "device seems to have root problems. try fixing it?" i selected yes.. after that the phone rebooted and stuck at boot screen. then i tried to go to recovery mode and their it wasnt detecting my internal sd card, boot, system etc i .e. i couldnt mount anytthing. so i tried flashing recovery again.
now finally, i am having a phone which goes only to download mode, or the bootscreen. doesnt even boot to recovery. i guess the kernel is still of cwm 10.
please tell me what should i do?
thanks.

Flash stock rom.
I had a russian stock 4.1.3 firmware on my i9070 with standard samsung recovery and it was kinda buggy(Google Play wouldn't work) and I decided to flash TWRP (yes, I now realize it couldn't have worked since it is for gingerbread) and I got stuck in boot screen with no recovery. The only solution I could think of is to flash stock JB again, so I downloaded stock Romania(Cosmote) Firmware and tried to flash it with both Odin v1.87(with and without pit file) and v3.07 and Odin gave me a PASS each time, but I am still stuck in boot screen with no recovery.
Clearly I am doing something wrong, and it probably is something I should have read somewhere, but there are so many details that I don't know where to start looking...
Later Edit:
It finally booted! Sorry for the new thread.
I don't know why it wasn't working with the Romanian firmware but I used the Greece one and it works fine.
Hi, my friend is facing same problem. Its showing PASS always.
But, its not booting to custom recovery.
It goes to samsung recovey and says "Downloading"
How you got it cleared? Do u need to wait at that previous screen?

If you are flashing custom recovery, but you still have stock Samsung recovery, you are clearly doing something wrong.
When I flashed custom recovery, I had JellyBean Android installed and the recovery was made to work with Gingerbread, so it wouldn't boot recovery at all.
Since you are still getting the standard Samsung recovery, you haven't flashed the custom recovery correctly.
I suggest you retrace your steps and find some tutorial that could help you with your problem HERE.
When I couldn't access recovery, I just flashed stock JellyBean again with Odin.
I have had several roms, over several devices, over several years. I have never had issues before.
I have Note 4 T-Mobile running 4.4.4. I rooted, installed TWRP and am trying to install cm-12.1-20150509-UNOFFICIAL-temasek-trltetmo
I tried installing a different ROM last night and the same things happen.
When I wipe Cache it removes the TWRP
I install TWRP app, then install TWRP 1.8.6 or whatever using the TWRP app
Reboot into recovery
Flash the ROM and Gapps
Wipe, wipe again just to be safe
Reboot
It goes through the CM logo to where it initializes apps, goes through them all, reboots and does it all again. 2 different ROMs did exactly the same thing. I dont know what im doing wrong. I tried installing TWRP With ADB but it hangs on "waiting for device" When I adb devices my hone shows and I have USB debug turned on. After I finally quit and pulled the battery It said no OS available so I had to DL and reflash stock image.
I am beyond frustrated now,
Any ideas? What info do you need from me?

You've got a nightmare. Head back to stock with Odin. Start fresh something with your base is off. Either wrong baseband orkernel but something off

Which rom u trying
few thoughts.
First verify the MD5 of your download of the rom. make sure it wasn't corrupt. Second. Flash just the rom only and boot, then flash gapps and boot.

I think flashing just the ROM and then gapps did the trick. Seems to be up and stable. Man Ive never had so many issues before blah.

I have not messed with CM since I had the Note 2, which was until the Note 3 came out. Was a different carrier too. Generally the rule was flash CM then boot then reboot and flash GAPPS. I haven't looked but I would assume it is still the same.
Glad it worked
So i resently just install cm 12.1 on my s3 mini. this was running fine until the play store dissapeared, (i think a deleted it somehow) so then i went and did a factory reset from the phone. It booted down and started trwp recovery. But the recovery didn't boot, if i tryed booting it normally it went back into the trwp screen flashing. So i went onto odin and flashed the recovery again. IT DIDNT WORK. I tryed flashing the rom again. STILL DIDNT WORK. PLEASE HELP
So to sum it up:
Phone won boot into recovery or main rom
HAVE already flashed the recovery and rom again
NEED HELP:crying::crying::crying::crying:

Did you try to flash only the rom or flash the stock rom?
Hello, just bought an used i8190. Since last friday i have been trying to flash a custom recovery on this phone via Odin, but after i flash it returns to the default recovery on next boot.
Yes, i have unchecked the "Auto-reboot" option on Odin. I turn off the phone and then manually enter recovery but with no results. I rooted the phone pretty easily and installed both TWRP and CWM apps to flash from android, but they don't work either (twrp crashes always and CWM just gives me an error.
Mi baseband model is XXAll2
kernel is 3.0.31 [email protected] (root name seems weird)
I searched the forum and found similar cases with the baseband, but even so i haven't found a concrete solution.
I even flashed a new pre-rooted rom from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2030282
Mi compilation number has changed to XXAMG1 but the baseband remains the same. I can't flash a recovery whatever i try.
I hope someone can give me an answer, cause i really want to use this phone feautures to it's fullest
Update:
Somehow, i managed to flash CWM via it's app successfully. However, when i tried to flash the TWRP via zip all i got was a blank screen and the phone booted directly to Android. I had to reflash the cwm with the app. However, i tried flashing via odin the Lineage os 14 from novafusion and i got a bootloop, reflashed the old stock firmware and now my device works but the recovery doesn't, and can't even flash this time via the app.
I tried flashing via ODIN stock recovery and other recoverys and i still get the same result. I have downloaded some stock roms, but im afraid to flash them in case i end up in a bootloop and unable to access recovery still
Any clues?

Flash the stock rom as it will fix bootloops and bricked devices. Make sure to have the right ROM and flash it with Odin. The os may take longer on first boot and make sure to factory reset it as data may cause bootloops, then try flashing the recovery.
I flashed twrp 3.1.1 through Odin
