[Q] Galaxy Spica only booting up to Recovery menu

I rooted my phone successfully and everything worked and for some reason i tried to format my memorystick because apps to sd didnt work.
So now my phone only boots into recovery mode and i cant get out.
I have tried flashing it again with Odin and installing android 2.2 again but nothing seems to work.
Have anyone else experienced this? What do i do to fix it?

Found any Solution
Hi! Did you find any solution?! I am facing the same problem since yesterday. Formatted the card like you did and stuck with the boot screen and recovery menu. Nothing more. This's a rooted phone and hence the boot screen has also changed. How to flash to original 2.1 so that I could at least drop it at the service center? Thanks in advance!

A difficult thing to fix

Nope, i just layed my phone on the shelf and forgot it.
I tried reflashing and installing other types of android 2.2 and 2.1 but it didnt work.

had the same issue before, sorted now. what you need to do is install a clean firmware, I tried all until I came across i570EXXJCB, I installed that and my phone would boot normally. I then installed Lk2.08 and upgrade straight to SpicagenMod. Worked for me. best of luck.

How?

But how did you install clean firmware?

He done it through Odin, same happened to me YESTERDAY. Pissed me right off, after formatting my SD card :S. Sorted now though. Flash JCB via ODIN and then install your LK2-08 PDA and goto SPicagen or whatever mod after

This solution did not work for me. I'm on a different Galaxy phone, but same exact problem, installing clean/original firmware made no difference, it still boots into recovery even though the boot screen has changes according to the ROM I've installed. This seems like a major Samsung goof

did you do it through ODIN? I can't remember exactly, this is over a year ago now.. but I remember I had to flash an official firmware that was close to the version that came with my device.. Eclair if I'm not mistaken.. depending on your galaxy device, try and flash the original firmware that came with your phone

wipe data cache or odin

Try with Parameter clear in Odin

New update buggered my xoom - plz help

Hello,
I tried updating from wingray version 155 to 156. Downloaded it etc, done the usual, installed it, installed the latest version of gapps, it said it all went fine. However once it had loaded and optimised apps, I couldnt get past the lock screen. When i put my unlock combo in it just froze. Tried rebooting a few times with no luck, just kept freezing.
I have then tried to go back to version 155 but its getting stuck at the logo screen (i think its the eos logo, with 4 different colours)
Any help would be greatly appreciated, i really need to use my xoom tomorrow!
Thanks
Adam

You might get more help, if you post your question in the ROM specific to your 155 nightly, thread.

if you update to 156 without wiping everything
you're gonna have a bad time

Mj, the thread is now closed.. Therefore I can't.
I cleared dalvik/cache like every other time I've updated. I know I have problems, I'm hoping for some solutions!!

Solution. Wipe data. Cache and davlik aren't enough for an OS change even if they might be sufficient for updates to the same ROM.

Is it worth going to eos 4?

Another piece of advice... Once you get your device working again perform a NAND backup so you can recover easier next time? Nightlies are a great way to see new features and bug fixes but they are still Testing software..
And yes, EOS 4 is worth going to but it is a little slow right now... give the team a little time to optimize it.

HELP! Odin and Heimdall won't work... Alternative to flash to stock?

First, let me get the formalities out of the way... long time lurker, first time poster. I hope you guys can help me out!
My GS4 semi-bricked while trying to restore my phone from LiquidSmooth ROM . My phone had no MAC address nor IP address after I flashed to LiquidSmooth, so I figured I needed to restore files I may have accidentally deleted.. The phone became stuck on the splash screen so I tried pulling the battery, going into recovery, and clearing cache/dalvik. No luck.
So then I tried to restore using a backup that I had made before flashing, but then it got stuck on the AT&T screen. Tried to clear cache/dalvik, but it didn't work. I thought maybe the back up didn't work because I was flashed into a different ROM, so I downloaded this stock rom by scrosier, and tried again... but to no avail.
Now I want to try flashing the phone back to stock, but I have a early 2008 MacBook running 10.7.5 (Lion). Odin is windows only, and Heimdall doesn't work on my version of OS X (keeps crashing the moment I open it). I thought maybe updating my MacBook to Mountain Lion (10.8) might work, but Mountain Lion is not supported on my Macbook, thus cannot update OS X... and I don't have access to a PC at this moment either.
Is my only option to go out and buy windows and install on bootcamp? Does anyone know if I could flash my phone back to stock using the computer I have now?
Sorry if my post didn't make any sense. I'm in a hurry and I want to fix my phone already! Thanks in advance
EDIT:
I have TWRP 2.5.0.3 on my phone

If you are able to access recovery then do this:
Put Liquid Smooth and its gapps on the external card using a card reader
Go into recovery, factory reset, wipe both caches, format /system, flash the rom and gapps, reboot

I actually tried to reflash Liquid Smooth and wiped cache / factory reset, but once it reboots, a screen pops up that says "Android is updating" and updates 120 files. However, when it finishes, it gives me an error along the lines of "Unfortunately... something something," and instantly reboots. Then it hangs on the Liquid Smooth splash screen. Couldn't get a good look at what the message said because it happens so quickly.

Then I suggest you flash a different ROM. Try out Slim. Liquid Smooth is just a Slim ripoff.
Put Slim and the Addons on the SD, and flash it like you would when changing ROMs. A clean wipe.

That's not Slim, he just put Slim because it's slimmed down. I haven't personally tried it. I'm a tester for SlimRoms, so thats all I ever run. Test builds. It does look nice though, but it won't have near the customization of Slim.

It just depends on whether or not you want all of the Google apps typically in a regular gapps pkg, or a stripped down version. I use the AIO_Addons, or you could get the Aroma, so you can pick and choose. The Slim_gapps is a stripped down version.

Last time I flashed a weekly, it wasn't loki'd, but that was a while back. I'm running test builds from black_jck, and build my own sometimes. I mentioned it to him that the weekly wasn't loki'd but that was a while back, so I can't speak for them now. The official builds are. If you're going to flash the weekly, flash loki_doki just to be safe.

Alright, so I flashed Slim and the AIO_addons, and rebooted the phone.
Once it was rebooting, the screen i mentioned earlier popped up, that said "Android is updating" and went through 109 files. When it was done, an error popped up quickly, saying that "Unfortunately..." and I couldn't read the rest before the phone rebooted. I let the screen hang for about 10 minutes, pulled the battery, cleared cache and dalvik, and rebooted again. No luck.
I think my best option now would be to return to stock, but I can't using my macbook. So my original question still stands.. How can I return to stock without using Odin and Heimdall?

I would say so myself, Odin back to stock, but since you have a mac and I'm not sure if Heimdall support the S4 try this:
Factory Reset
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik
Format /system
Format /data
Format /internal (If CWM-based recovery)
Flash ROM, addons, reboot

Well thanks for all your help! Happy that my phone is working again without having to flash to stock.
Phone booted normally once I switched to SlimBean. Much snappier and responsive than LiquidSmooth. Fixed the problems I was having with WiFi also.
Still haven't figured out a way to flash to stock using OS X Lion since Heimdall doesn't work and Odin is Windows only... Mods please lock or close thread because I don't need help anymore

Glad you got it going man, and enjoy Slim, it's hands down the best ROM there is if you prefer minimal with tons of customization options.

Stuck on "Galaxy S4" Splash Screen

So i have the I337m, canadian model S4 on Bell Mobility network, and I"m running SlimRoms with 2.5.0.2 twrp recovery.
Every other reboot, the phone gets stuck on the splash screen, I have no problem to go into recovery mode or anything, this is simply a problem when rebooting and gets stuck on the "Galaxy S4" screen. Here's what I've tried, tried both with TWRP and CWM and TWRP seems better, I don't get stuck on the splash screen as often as CWM. I've reverted back to the "stock ROM" and rerooted and loaded the TWRP recovery, and while it seems better at first, it slowly gets stuck more and more at the splash screen.
I'm running out of ideas, no knowing what do to to improve this problem...
Anyone else having this problem? I'm positive this is not a "ROM" related problem but a recovery problem, yet maybe it's just my phone that's being the problem.

I'll also add that I've never formated data on TWRP... since I've read it gives that problem.

You have to do a factory reset, wipe data, or you will get a boot loop. Do that and I'm sure you'll get past the boot loop. If you're concerned about the version of twrp you're on, update it.

I'm not getting boot loops actually, I get stuck on the "splash screen" and when I hold the "power" button for +/-10sec it reboots and most of the time it's fine.
When I install any roms, I always do a factory reset... So I doubt it's that

i had the same issue. im running the same s4 on koodo/telus. how i got it to work took a while but it fixed the problem. full back up through recovery but i wasnt gona use it..i only had it for safety. used titanium to back up all the apks. then grabbed a stock rom from the Canadian stock roms page and used odin to flash it. rooted and added recovery (twrp). downloaded my rom to the sd, wiped everything and installed the rom. once done then used titanium to restore the apks. im still learning the basics to all this so in no way am i an expert and theres probably a better way around all this but this is what worked for me. maybe it helps who who knows

I was having a similar problem to your's. I found the cause of my issue. It was TWRP 2.6.0.0. More specifically, it was using TWRP 2.6 to format my /data partition. After doing some trouble shooting, I found that my /data partition was the cause of my S4 hanging at the S4 splash screen. Like you, I was able to get into Android on the first boot, but if I tried to reboot, I was get stuck at the splash screen. So, long story short (solution), I restored one of my nandroid backups, got into Google Play, downloaded ROM Manager and installed CWM. I used CWM to format my /data partition and ONLY my /data partition. Once I did this, I rebooted my phone. Android loaded, I had to go through the initial setup process since I formatted the /data partition, but after this, I was able to reboot my phone 5 times in a row without issue and shut down twice with no problems booting back up.

I've been running Slim for a year now, and won't go back to anything else, it's stable and fast, I doubt it's a ROM problem, but a recovery problem.

i think you're right. a problem with the recovery makes more sense.

So it seems like this wasn't exactly my problem... I've reverted back to stock and I'm doing a couple shutdowns and reboot and see if I still get stuck at the splash screen.

I've been doing reboots and shutdowns on the "stock" rom and "stock" recovery, and all is good, so I can rule out the fact that it's the phone and it's hardware issues...
Now, just need to figure out the actual problem

So far so good. I rebooted many times since I made the post in this thread. Haven't got stuck on the splash screen yet.

I'm still having the problem, being on either the TWRP, CWM or Philz recovery, so I'm really not sure what it could be. I'm on the latest modem and still have the problem, is none else having these issues?
I'm getting annoyed and really want to get this fixed.

I think any ROM built on AOSP or CyanogenMod have this issue. It's already a known issue to CM.
Use CWM and you'll have to deal with it less.

Yeah, but I don't think its a big deal anyway. How many times do you turn off your phone and turn it back on in a day?

Constantly rebooting...

Hello, this is my first post here and I have searched for a similar post or issue but have been unsuccessful finding anything.
Please forgive me if I have posted in the wrong area, missed a solution somewhere and/or have not explained anything correctly/clearly.
My Nexus 7 (2012) (I installed Cyanogen on it (and updated it once) through their installer and it has run perfectly for months) started rebooting randomly one morning. I turn it on and it seems to be normal, then it will suddenly reboot. The time between reboots varies ranging from 30 seconds to a few minutes. I can not install or update any apps and any settings changed are reset back to what they were previously upon reboot. I have tried a factory reset and while it appears to wipe everything (all caches and data) when I reboot it is the same as before the reset (I also receive this message (after all other processes are complete) during the data wipe "E: unknown volume "/sdcard/.android_secure" "). I am able to turn on developer options but then the random reboot occurs and it is turned off. I have plugged it to my computer and see it listed, but can not access anything on it.
My intention is to wipe it using my computer (fastboot?) but I am at a standstill due to the rebooting and being unable to turn on developer options.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried flashing another ROM in recovery? Perhaps try to see if you can access the filesystem while in recovery or if the bootloader brings anything up on your computer.

Thanks for the reply. Sorry for my delay in replying. I've been rather frustrated with this.
I flashed the official image (downloaded from the google site) using fastboot and it seemed to work as all messages said complete but when I rebooted, it was back to it's current state. I am at a loss. I also tried adb sideloading but that just hangs when it gets to installing. It does not reboot randomly when it is in recovery.

No worries!
So CyanogenMod is still installed? Oh my. Has anything at all changed? If you still have custom recovery installed, why not try a near stock ROM?

Yes. No matter what I do, when I reboot it's still Cyanogen. Being a semi-novice at this, I didn't backup the stock ROM I had before installing Cyanogen. It feels like a virus, but I pretty much installed the exact same apps on both my phone and tablet and the phone has been fine.
I used this image(nakasi kot49h). Should I try a earlier version?
Thank you.

You can always try. Also make sure you check md5 before flashing, that may explain why stock didn't flash correctly.

And I still can't get anything to work. Most recently I tried using wugfresh and EVERYTHING works except when it writes bootloader.img at the start. I feel like I am close but then it reboots back to cyanogen. lol
