[Q] Samsung Froyo Fail, Brick on not? - Captivate General

I have a Samsung Captive, just tried the Froyo update following he wiki notes, ran Odin and was able to get to download mode and did the update, (from Wiki) the it completed and said successful 0 failures but after the reboot, I see the splash screen Galaxy GT-19000 Samsung then I get the Galaxy S large S screen and the S turns colors like a normal boot then the screen goes black. The Home and other buttons on the bottom turn on and are lit but the screen stays black? I tried to boot to re-flash Vol- Vol+ Power and I get the Galaxy S GT-i900 screen flashing loop. Any way to get this booted?
Thank you for your time

Relay Wont Boot Into Recovery Mode

My Relay wont boot into recovery mode. Whenever I hold the Volume-Up + Home + Power, it turns on then it says on the top left corner a small blue colored message saying "RECOVERY BOOTING..." and then it goes to the "Galaxy S Relay from T-Mobile" screen and then black screen. Nothing happens, it doesnt boot into recovery but it can turn on and function well with the OTA Jelly Bean 4.1.2 update as well as boot into Download mode. I have rooted it before when It was still ICS 4.0.4 and I guess I didnt unroot it correctly.
A couple of days ago, I heard about the Jelly Bean update, which I wanted, so I used Kies to update. I connected my phone while in Download mode and Kies did its thing and my phone was unrooted when it booted up and had Jelly Bean. It worked perfectly, but it couldnt boot into recovery mode. I dont think it's a huge problem to not boot into recovery, but to me, I feel safer having it.
Is there a way to fix this using just Samsung Kies? Is there a way to flash that recovery or something using Odin? If so, where can I find it and how do I do it?
Thanks in advance!

dear OP why cant you learn the rules?
Were you able to apply the OTA update with "no recovery"? It sounds like you might have stock and your screen doesn't work in recovery, or perhaps you're recovery is just plain broken. Either way, reflashing recovery with heimdall or odin might do the trick.
This question belongs in Q and A or general, not development.
I was rooted with cwm as my recovery and tried to unroot yesterday. I uninstalled Superuser and factory reset. Apparently, I "unrooted" wrong. Then I applied the OTA via Kies. I think my recovery is just plain broken. Where can I find and download the recovery for the Relay? And how do I flash it?

This is not in the right place, the other thread is.
Don't make multiple threads in the same place of the same topic. That's called spamming

As soon as you see the blue letters for recovery booting, take your fingers off all the buttons. It will then go to recovery. I had the same thing happen to me yesterday. If you continue holding the buttons, it will do what you described.

Wow. Thank you so much! Before, I would have to hold the buttons until the actual recovery menu comes up. I didn't know you just had to hold it until the blue letters came up. Once again, thank you very much!

My phone is currently NOT rooted. I attempted to root it when I first got it and almost bricked it so when I got it back to working I just left it. I've had my phone over a year and have recently over the past few months had issues with the charging port and batteries even holding a charge. Bought extended life slim batteries and a charger due to that issue. Then just yesterday I was using facebook on my phone and it randomly rebooted and wouldn't stop boot looping. Only way I've stopped it thus far is to take out the battery.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

gt p5110 stuck on splash screen

I tried flashing a rom but now its stuck on Samsung screen for a while then goes to the cyangomod splash screen then stays on that.
Volume up and power brings up the warning screen so press volume down to continue to the "downloading.......do not turn off target!! Screen but then just stays stuck on there too.
I've got myself another rom on SD card ready to flash but have no idea on what I can do now.
Thanks in advance!
Its OK guys, I somehow managed to get to the recovery screen by constantly rebooting so have managed to install a new from.
That downloading screen is your download mode. Can only be used with odin. So it will look like its not doing znything because its just waitning for odin to pick it up and flash something to it. Glad you got it working.

[Q] Galaxy s3 mini I8190N wont boot up

My daughters s3 mini has stopped working.
When you hold down the power button it gives a tiny vibration and the samsung logo comes on the screen, after that it goes black and then goes through the same process again (small vibration, s3 logo and model, then clack again)...
It seems to just loop on this over and over again...
I cannot get into the boot menu but can get into the download menu so have followed instructions and rooted it in odin... however, although that was successful) it still wont boot.
I am thinking there is an issue with the boot sequesnce?
I would love if someone has any other suggestions?
Thank you.
Seems like you got a bootloop..
Try flashing the official firmware again using ODIN.
All the firmwares van be found here : http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/

Quick thing to try. When you hold down the vol down to go into download mode and it asks if you're sure you want to go into download mode, choose CANCEL instead and see if it boots. That sometimes knocks it out of the loop.

Note Edge bootloop: phone screen goes black after Samsung logo, what are my options?

i have a galaxy note edge, but couple of days back when i unpluged my phone from the charger and tried to turn it on it would not boot up properly;even if it did it would turn itself off at different times. so i had decided to flash stock rom, thinking this could solve the problem. i downloaded stock rom from sammobile, flash it via odin,and it was successful;but when the phone rebooted with "recovery booting" on the top left of the screen then the screen went black. to turn the the device on again i have to pull the battery out and put back in after 10-15 seconds. and now whenever i try to turn the device on, it boots up with "recovery booting'' on the top left of the screen but goes black as soon as the samsung logo shows up. i don't know what's causing this problem.
if anyone out there could help me get out of this problem,i would greatly appreciate it
thanks in advanced

but i need a solution for my galaxy note edge.
you have the incorrect recovery flashed, double check it and reflash. hold home+vol down+power then press volume up when prompted. use odin from pc to flash the correct recovery.

I flashed stock rom, but that didn't help; I still can't get the phone to turn on properly. The phone turns off as soon as the Samsung logo shows up, I am on stock recovery.
I flashed stock rom and it loads successfully,the phone reboots with "recovery booting" on the top left of the screen,but the screen goes black as soon as the text "galaxy note edge powered by Android" shows up.
I'm desperately trying to find a way out of this problem, so please help me.
best regards
