black screen after kies flash

i've just tried upgrading to the new froyo build through kies, but on completion my phone will not turn back on. All i am getting is black screen with random vibrations. I can get into download mode though. Anyone have a link to jf3 or jm1 original firmwares so i can flash back via odin then try kies again?

Go to recovery (volup+home+power) wipe data/factory reset and it will work, happened to me also.

man I cant stress this enough.. THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!!!! After this happened to me I was ready to 1) give up, 2) try to reflash with odin 3) try something even more crazy..
and you saved my but ! I did as you said and it just started up perfectly ! Now I have froyo, all my data, and dont have to reflash or anything !
I just have one question if I may please !
I had a lagfix installed and I didnt disable it before I did the flashing, so do I still have it or what ? Because I didnt loose any data but the applications that I had instaled are not showed anymore.. which bugs me because Ill have to clean up and redo everything.. but at least Ill have a clean phone )
thanks again man !

You need to dis able lag fix before updating or anything

of course I know that now , the issue with my situation would be that after I got it working (did what BaalBehrit said) the phone would boot up normaly, but all apps including of course One-click Lag fix were still there but didn't show as installed apps, nor had they any icons for that matter. Therefore disabling it before second flash was virtualy imposible.
What I did was simple. I backed all my data to my computer and then just formated both SD cards - that probably took care of the lagfix, after that, I did the flash again and everything run smoothly.
but you're right I have to remember for next time

[HELP] Need help getting my Tab backup and running [verizon]

I have a Verizon Tab and to tell the truth I seem to be having more problems than its worth.
After rooting, installing CwM, installing a Kernel and running KhasMek's K-leanMod v2.
I keep running in to problems, wifi problems, market problems, and now it just wont get booted up.
So I would like a start from scratch list.
Also, I am not able to do much from the CwM recovery. I am not able to wipe any thing or clear any thing.
Thanks for the help, this is my 3rd weekend with the Tab and it seems every friday I break the thing and spend the weekend fixing it.

Maybe a stock rom will help you back on track. I've been on stock for 2 months now. Only change I've done is wpa_supplicant and root.

Once you start over i found when switching to boushh's kernel and rom do a full wipe, wipe cache and dalvik cache. Install the v3 kernel do a full wipe all over again, install rom do one more full wipe as stated above. Then boot normally this seemed to fix all my issues.

That was worked for me, I was able to get my Tab back to Stock.

I fallowed the steps and it worked for me so I downloaded the files and copied steps fro, the droid form so we cah have it here as well.
So if you are looking to get your Tab back to stock this should do it.

Rootet SG2 stuck on Bootscreen after factoryreset with CWM. (Update)

Hey
After I read that the battery life could be improved by factoryreset-ing the sg2, i resetted it in recoverymode.
And now it stuck on the boot Logo, displaying the big animated endless looping
S
Samsung
GALAXY S II​
.. and then i tryd to flash a new firmware, litening rom and I thought it would fix the problem, but no, it didnt.
I use the kernel from chainfire with Clockworkmod v3.0.0.5 + the other good stuff.
what can I do ???
edit: I try to restore my backup now

Ok cool.. the restore process works pretty good.
Everything is like it was tonight, when i backed it up.
Ok, now is the question, why does the factory reset does not work here ?

I'm pretty sure they are taking about resetting it from within the phone, ie settings, private, factory reset
Edit: It's working as intended, you wiped your data partition. Needless to say this renders the phone pretty much useless

ok, i made a factory reset within the phone now
lets see..

Again.. same effect.. used the holy wcm to resque me.
maybe its because of the frozen sysapps that i instandly froze with TB after installing litening rom..
need to reinstall it again now.
Damn, i would like to have a real clean startup again.. and try if anything changes with the battery power.
My theory is, that many of us have a different hardware.. like battery type or a different screen or something..
Its like the 5 different firmwares for the mmols camera..
ok, i will now flash litening rom and configure it...
ps: don't forget to back it up yo!

how did u manage to solve it ..? i am facing with the same problem also ...thnaks!

Did you try to flash original kernel and then factory reset?

Had the same problem and downloaded from xda the original ke7 and installed it
problem solved. Then did a rooting again. Hope this helps.

It seems, that wiping the dalvic cache will produce that effect.
Because in the dalvic cache, there are many informations saved how your system is configurated..
For example your google account is also saved there within the google framework and the account and sync settings in the dalvic cache.
But not only there, there are some other places to.
Maybe i will make a tutorial in a while, how to change or delete the google account, because you can't delete or change it the normal way.

i solved this with wip data/cache

Dialer and call log chrashes

Hi guys!
I´m having this very annoying issue with my galaxy...
As soon as i open the dialer and try to punch in some numbers, the application just ends! Same thing goes if i try to access the call logs directly, just chrashes (not FC´s) right back to the homescreen!!
I have to open the dialer like 4-5 times before eventually being able to do anything at all with it.
Tried factory reset, didn´t work
Phone is a galaxy with 2.3.3 with JVH and 2.6.35.7 kernel, rooted
Please help!

Already did that, and dalvik and also fixed permissions in the recovery menu, still no effect

I also have this problem, including with stock JVH.
I have tried a lot, including:
Flashing a different lower firmware and upgrading through Kies.
Doing full reflashes though Odin.
Uninstalling all apps and reinstalling one by one (but the problem has been impossible to pinpoint
Taking all contacts of my Exchange account, going through them one by one, exporting them and reimporting them to fix any issue with those.
Clearing all caches, etc
Nothing has helped so I finally just installed another dialer from the market and with this there have been no problems. It's very annoying though because I like the stock apps.

Try searching for phone.apk for jvh an then replace it on system/app by using root explorer or other file manager
U could also download another dialer like (Go Dialer) but when u search at the market search Go Contacts it will install dialer with contacts list.. after that-(optional) go to system/app change phone.apk for phone.apk.bak.. this will delete the phone but u will keep it saved on system/app when u want it back just rename it phone.apk

I´m not following? are you suggesting that i reflash the phone with a new rom? i like the stock one so that doesn´t do it for me..

youve got some mess on system partition that is resulting in phone aplication fatal errors that closes it (btw can you copypaste logcat part when this app fails)
aside there might be other modules not working as suposed that you are not noticing because they do not force close but they can for example make some proceses not go into idle = more battery consumed idk there might be a milion things that are going wrong due this incompatybility
by this flash order i suggest you to revert to froyo and do a factory reset there (because ive noticed myself tons of times factory reset failing on all gb releases and never on froyo - must be some gb/ or maybe rooting issue) and ive noticed new files not beeing copied on fresh fw instalation because of that all that on gb and never while upgrading from froyo
what i am proposing here is flash order that is always working for me and ive developed it after countles hours of reflashes - and hey i never had any drain any force close problems =)
thats just friendly xda advice - make it or not i do not care but i would be happy if that would help you
common issue also is reverting backup files from previous system version to current one (people restore system files from eg jve to jvq and are amazed that their phone forcloses on most apps or somrthing) you can not use some system files backup from previous on current firmware

So how do i do this then? bare in mind that i´ve never flashed a phone...ever

just a second, i will find youa nice tutorial =) refresh after like 10 minutes ;]]]

Thanks a billion!!

My advise,
Flash the original stock rom you want, (not any deodexed rom!)
Flash the kernel you want via odin
Reboot into recovery mode
Do "wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe cache partition"
Don't restore any backup

Funny thing, i actually downloaded Go Contacts in order to do a contact backup, but that´s actually a better dialer and call log app than the stock one
I´m thinking of maybe keeping this one instead of the stock one for now?

feel free to do that =)

Did you solve this crashing problem?

I'm Using omega Rom V7 with the new adam kernel v1.3

Also my camera was fine with the stock kernel, i think the new adam kernel made my camera app worst.

Can i re-flash omega rom, without wiping data? or will that cause trouble?

If you don't want to do a full wipe don't even bother flashing it again.
The whole purpose of re-flashing is that you are having a problem with
the camera.
A clean install of Omega rom should clear it up.
But a dirty flash will make no difference at all.
Backup your apps using titanium backup or some other backup app so you don't loose your apps.
Good luck!

When i first flashed the omega rom, i did do a full wipe, worked fine until the camera app crashed for the 3rd time. I don't mind doing a full wipe, it's just i did some tinkering with my phone and i have to start again if i have to do a full wipe lol

Always do a full wipe when having problems.
I understand it can be time consuming, i have dirty flash many times and still had the same problems.
If the new flash doesnt work search the Rom thread, i read somewhere of a similar issue.
