[Q] flashing Samsung Galaxy S (i9000) - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys:
I'm really new with the galaxy, and was trying to upgrade and flashing my galaxy, but this not working and now is not working any more . If I push the power on button, nothing happen, if I try to turn the galaxy in recovery mode (vol+, home and power on) not works, the only can I do is power on in mode "downloading...", I was reading in several internet pages several instruction in order to connect the pc to the galaxy trough Odin (v 1.3), this looks start working but then stop on SBL.bin and nothing happen later.....
Could somebody tell me a process in order to recovery my galaxy please??????
Thanks a lot!

Flash failed [Samsung Galaxy S]

Hi,
Yesterday i tried to flash my Samsung Galaxy S, and during the flash with Odin i see problem. Flash failed.
Now when i try to boot my phone i can see a picture with a phone and computer join with exclamation panel.
Can I repair the phone? What should I do?
Hold the Volume -, Power and Home Button until you see the "Downloading..." screen with a yellow Android.
Connect the phone to your PC and try to flash the ROM again.
What OS do you use? Which ROM do you want to flash?

stuck in recovery mode

Hi all,
I have a weird situation here. I have a vibrant and I installed on it the official middle-east froyo ROM for the international galaxy s. Then I wanted to root the device, but the thing is, it thinks I'm using the international I9000 galaxy, so now pressing the power button in the recovery mode isn't working, it expects the home button (the physical one) to be pressed, which is available on the vibrant!
help please!
nevermind, I somehow managed to get into download mode and flshed it.
im having the same issue how did u fixed it?
Yes please how did you get it to go to the download state I'm STUCK!
For you people who doesn't want to search the forums. There are awesome threads of how to get your phone into the Download mode. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848737

How to Re-stock P1000 to Gingebread 2.3 | Guide with Links

NOTE : this is not my own procedure but i just wanna share this with you guys since some tab users here are having problems restocking their tab to gingerbread, i have also added some notes and troubleshooting in case there will be an issue flashing the rom
link to the original post credits of course to the writer > how to restock p1000 to gingerbread 2.3
btw, this is a complete and full tutorial/step-by-step guide on how to restock gingerbread rom, so if you did not download all requirements, restocking wont be successful
my story and experience : hey guys, yesterday night, i softbricked my galaxy tab p1000 which was running cm9, it turned out like that when i went to recovery and wipe all data, cache, dalvik, even system, and boot. i tried reflashing the cm9.zip but as it was installing its update, my tab suddenly boot into battery icon, meaning it was already empty (maybe, dont have any idea), then, since it was already 12 midnight, there were no internet cafes open in our village, so i went out though somehow it might be dangerous for me, then, i found an internet cafe open. i rent a pc, first, i tried to go to download mode, so some drivers will be installed, but it kept showing "unkown device recognized" bla bla.. still.. i didnt lose hope. so i searched on google, and i found this site > http://suzhipackz.blogspot.com/2012/07/how-to-re-stock-samsung-galaxy-tab.html , when i finished downloading odin, i opened it to check whether it will read my device or not, first three attempts, it did not. so, i thought of downloading samsung kies so the drivers will be installed (safest way really to install samsung drivers), then i still looked for a smaller file (while waiting for kies to complete its download), then i found that there is a smaller zip file for you to install samsung drivers (see attachment below), i installed it, but still odin cant detect my device (try it, might be just on the pc i rented), so i just waited for kies to complete.. after a couple of minutes, successfully downloaded kies, and installed it. i tried connecting tab to pc with odin opened, i rebooted to download mode again and reconnect tab to pc, and voila! odin read my device! so, since pc has already detected my device, i just waited about 1 1/2 hours for the rom and the pit file and the db data file.... after almost 2 and half hours of crossing fingers, i have revived my tab and restocked it to gingebread 2.3!
HOW TO RESTOCK SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB p1000 to 2.3.3 GINGER BREAD STOCK ROM?
HERE:
- ALL REQUIREMENTS
.......Samsung KIES > LINK FOR SAMSUNG KIES
.......ODIN3 v1.7 > LINK FOR ODIN3 v1.7
.......p1000xxjq1_p1000xxjq1_p1000xxjpz < THIS IS STOCK ROM > LINK FOR STOCK ROM
.......gt-p1000_mr_PIT > LINK FOR PIT
.......dbdata.zip > LINK FOR DBDATA
.......place it all in ONE FOLDER in desktop "unzip it all"
PLEASE DOWNLOAD ALL OF THIS BEFORE YOU CONTINUE..............
PROCEDURE:
.......Turn off tab
.......open ODIN3 v1.7
.......click on the PDA and select - p1000xxjq1_p1000xxjq1_p1000xxjpz in your computer
.......clink on the PIT and select - gt-p1000_mr_PIT
.......Check only RE-PARTITION, "uncheck auto reboot and f.reset time"
.......in your tab press and hold "VOLUME DOWN AND POWER BUTTON"
.......if DOWNLOADING APPEAR leave it like that
.......now, connect you tab in computer
.......if ODIN detects your phone PRESS START in ODIN
.......wait for it until success, after that disconnect your tab
(if for an instance it stuck on downloading mode but you have already finished flashing, do not worry, you just have to manually hold the power button for it to boot up, it might get into recovery, so please reboot the system (it might also be a touch recovery so please tab the home touch key to continue) then if it keeps on booting on "samsung", do not worry, you are not done yet with the restocking procedure, so please proceed to the next step)
.......press and hold power button until it will turn off
.......open ODIN3 v1.7 again
.......UNCHECK it all "re-partition, auto reboot, f.reset time"

.......wait for it until success, after that disconnect your tab
(again, if it is stuck on downloading mode but you have successfully done the flashing, hold power key to turn the tab on, and if it keeps on booting to "samsung" again, do the next step)
.......This time we will go to CLOCKWORKMOD by holding "VOLUME UP and POWER BUTTON"
(then wipe data, and wipe cache, (volume keys to scroll up or down, and home touch key to select) and reboot system, wait for a minute or two and home screen will now appear)
.........................................NOW YOUR IN STOCK ROM AGAIN 2.3.3 GINGER BREAD
another note : when there is an error for example that flashed on your tab screen like a color red "E:\ " something like that, do not worry, it is the external sd card (i dont have one so it was an error then but not a problem, no worries) just let it be, wait until it finishes
some files are already attached below coz they are just small in size
clicking "thanks" button is enough for me..
just sharing this with you guys...
happy restocking!! :laugh:

Stock Rom's Link doesn't work
So, I tried your recipe and it worked pretty well for me, but the annoying thing about it was the links to the Stock Rom, so i got the below link as a mirror for those who are interested.

Samsung Tab P1000 stuck in nowhere!
First of all thanks the OP for the brilliant post on how to re-stock GB on P1000.
Earlier today I was fooling around with my P1000 to update it from CM11 to Omnirom 5.0.2, troubles started there. I was trying to install the TWRP recovery over CWM, and that is when all hell broke loose.
1. P1000 couldn't mount my internal SD. The tab was perfectly booting to a previous version of JB CM sapir, which I don't have any clue appeared where from. The storage showed the 2 GB internal memory, but the 12GB internal SD was missing out.
And the CWM errors were E:/can't mound internal SD
2. Now, after wiping data, dalvik, battery stats, formatting and all that, the tab doesn't even boot into the OS. The moment the power button is on, CWM initiates a count down saying, trying to mount SD, but unable to do so. After 20 seconds, the tab starts this whole process again, and thus a loop.
3. I tried to re-stock to GB; but my tab isn't being detected by Odin in download mode. Odin detects the tab when it is turned on and when the tab is on countdown-restart-countdown loop; but not in download mode.
I am a total noob, and I don't want to throw my tab away as I am a student and can't afford to get a new one Someone please help me to fix the issue. Thanks in advance!

Can you try booting the Vol- or the Vol+ button until you see the flashscreen?
Weird.(and making the tablet unbrickable needs a mod which I hope that you don't do)

Well yes, Vol+ takes me to CWM recovery and Vol- takes me to download mode. Odin detects my Tab on CWM; I tried flashing the PIT which resulted in a failure. And on the download mode as I mentioned earlier, Odin doesn't detect my Tab
Well, I am all ears about the mod you're mentioning about, but let's just hope for now that I don't need that

Samsung Galaxy A5 soft bricked

Hello, I recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy A5 using Odin 3 v3.07. It passed and phone worked fine then I unistalled few apps but nothing significant, I checked with a list wich ones are safe to remove. It worked good untill I decided to reboot the phone and now it displays te Samsung logo, then Samsung Galaxy A5 and then black screen with pop ups of the apps stopping working. I tried the hard reset but nothing happens when I press volume up + home + power. The good thing is if I press volume down + home + power, the downloading mode appears so I think there is hope. What should I do? I've been browsing the forums but I couldn't find the answer, also with Google.
Also, if it helps: the system went to the latest version a month ago.
Thanks in advance!

if you want the stock rom simply flash it with odin but if you want a custom rom such as CM, flash twrp copy the rom from you pc to your galaxy a5 (the recovery supports MTP) then wipe cache, data, dalvik, system (you don't need to wipe internal storage, too), then installthe flashable zip of your ROM

Good luck.

Galaxy E700H stuck on Emergency Recovery Screen

Hello there,
I don't know much about rooting and flashing and other things because it's not my cup of tea. Coming to the point, yesterday I followed a guide to root my Samsung Galaxy E7 using the CF Autoroot flash file. But things didn't go well, after a few seconds of starting flash process using the Odin tool, my phone lost connection with the PC. Odin was still flashing the file but when I checked the log it said removed. I noticed that my phone's download mode is also got stuck. So I got panicked and pressed vol down + power + home to hard restart the phone, and then my got stuck on Emergency Recovery Screen (I forgot to take the photo of the message flashing on that screen). Currently my phone's battery is drained and its resting.
So please tell me if there's any way to fix my phone. A simple method please because I don't know much about these things. And another is that whether my data is still safe or erased.
Thanks in advance
