Help Needed! Possibly hard bricked Sgs4G - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

So I had GB bootloaders and 2.3.4 installed on it. I was browsing through the forum and really liked Raver's Redux rom, but totally blacked out i have to change bootloaders back to Froyo ( still no idea how to ). So my phone got into a bootloop. The problem is, i tried to flash the phone back to GB rom, and was doing it using ODIN, and brother plucked the usb cable off during the flashing process. Now everytime i try to turn it on, it has a yellow triangle that says" Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. PLease select recovery mode in KIes and try again. " Tried Kies, no use. The same screen appears when i try to get into a download mode, tried usb jig . same screen. WHat should i do from here? i am out of ideas.

OK, i flashed Stock GB rom with Odin, even the dwld mode didn't appear on phone screen, but ODIN read it and i got a connection in with it. Now its on a bootloop again. It goes into the recovery menu (3e). Says E:Failed to mount /data (INvalid Argument). What should i do from here??? THanks

NVM , I got it working now But i still want that Redux rom My question is : how do i get back to Froyo Bootloaders? A specific instruction would be really helpful, what to tick and not on ODIN , etc... Thanks

Flash kd1 or Odin ravers kc1 with all 4 files. You'll have the froyo bootloaders. There at guides out there if you search. I'm in my phone, so I can't link then. Sorry.if you have trouble, let me know and I'll walk you through it

Yeah, i tried that rom already. I felt like the battery life on it was not that good so I decided to go back to Froyo's since it was there a long time and has *Solid* roms than GB right now... ( from my understanding and im a newb too lol)

Thank you all for the help! now it runs Redux rom flawlessly !

[Q] Captivate 2.2 [Official] Lag problems

Just finished installing the official 2.2 release on my Captivate (problem free). Before installing I backed up everything to my SD card via titanium, then removed the lag fix, and did a hard reset / format using the dialer code, verified everything was wiped and all the internal storage was wiped clean (although MCR scripts and superuser didn't go away).
first reaction, THE LAG IS HORRIBLE. hoping it was a result of crapware, I rooted via SuperOneClick, reinstalled Titanium from the market, and removed all the ATT crapware, rebooted, and it is no better.
I've restored my apps and everything except facebook contact syncing seems to be working great, but the lag is awful! often I wait 3, sometimes 5 seconds before a screen click is even recognized.
are there any lag fixes that have been tested on, or at least suggested for the official 2.2 release?
what lagfix did u use

I assume you are referring to the one used on 2.1, I don't remember the name, but it used MCR Scripts and was installed with an update.zip. once installed you ran MCR Scripts and "installed" the lag fix with 2 options, either 512mb or 1gb of space, and a third option to remove the lagfix
I ran the remove option before doing the upgrade

I thought I read that voodoo didn't work with 2.2, only 2.2.1
I'm running stock 2.2 with no lag. I formatted my external sd and that fixed my initial lag problem

If i understand you, you had lag problems after upgrading to 2.2, and then resolved them by formatting the external (removable) sd card?

I just upgraded and it seems very snappy to me. It's not my everyday phone anymore so I don't have a SIM or external SD in but from just fooling around with it for about a half hour it moves nicely! About to root now and remove the bloatware

That was solved months ago. Go to the dev section, download the 5.x voodoo + stock KB1 kernel odin file, and flash it on. Phone will take a while to boot back up, but will tell you it is converting partitions to ext4. Once it comes back, you will see the amazing speedup from getting rid of the piece of **** known as RFS.
Is there anyway I can get lagfix by itself? I have no computer so id just like to download to phone, put in root and goto recovery mode.

If its that much of a lag, then something didn't load right. I'm on stock 2.2 wirth no lag. Its just about as fast as oclf. But, if you read the [official] froyo update thread, people kind brush on what ideas to try. Most of them say, like I said, something want loaded right. Good luck.

Went through its process and said it failed..could not verify or something. Is this not the way to do it? I did it on 2.1 same way w/eclair approved voodoo and it worked just fine. And I apologize for getting upset its just a little tedious doing all this searching on a small phone screen.

Froyo uses 3e recovery I believe so it will not install any update.zips the only way I know of is using an alternate recovery...a kernel with 2e recovery or going the custom rom route like torch 1.5 or cog 4 in the dev section which use the new froyo
And for your no computer issue...i suggest you find mcdonalds or a neighbor and use the wifi and download one of those custom roms directly to your phone that have a lagfix included with root and no bloat. I do this all the time when I am in the field. Just some suggestions I hole they help and I understand your frustration.

Voodoo lagfix kernel for I897UCKB1

Guys:
Don't follow any instruction to flash this kernel on your captivate running official froyo I897UCKB1. I tried all advices and ended up bricking my phone. Luckily the unbricking method you can find.in xda saved me. But, i had to flash.back to JF6 (2.1 eclair stock) using odin3 and then went back to kies mini to get the official froyo. I am writing this for people who like to use stock froyo instead of any.custom roms. I had to waste my time because.some.people suggested a few methods without knowing it for sure. Most suggestions are great in this forum (thats how i used serendipity.for a while). But, some or one of the bad suggestions can brick your phone real bad. So, ask as many questions as possible before going with a suggestion you see. Preferably look at how to videos. If there are none out there. Then, WAIT!

Then xda should remove the link for "how to unbrick" link. Brick is of two types. Soft and hard. What you mean is hard. What I meant b was soft. But, even soft.can cause serious issues. Post a video if you can. That will help a lot.

I did the sgs kernel flasher method. Heard voodoo voice prompts at reboot. In the end it said "lagfix deleted". I saw the same stock kernel after that. So, what am I missing.

Need a little help.

Not sure if this is the correct fourm but since i didnt see a tech support forum figured this might be the most logical spot to put it.
My current device is a Samsung galaxy s 4g
Carrier T mobile
Rom
[ROM][CWM] T959VUVKD1 - Deodexed FIXED
Flashed with Odin3 v1.7
The issue i had is i wanted to install the bali kernel onto the phone i downloaded the 2.1 kernel from the forums non UV version but i don't know how to flash it. I tried to find it in the forums but i don't really see any clear directions how to flash it some say clockwork don't have it don't know how to install it. Sorry for my nubness. Then i did try to flash it using odin3 which soft bricked the phone phone computer with a little line going though it. Fixed that without much issue.
Id like Try out non stock kernels and i love what u guys do with the roms but i guess im a little stumped cause i don't know how to eather a find the missing apps i needed or how to flash it properly though odin3. If im totally off the mark im sorry and please forgive me again for my noobness.

OK your probably gonna here some $h1t for not searching but I'll Hook you up. OK you need to go to the cwm final post by krylon360. That will get you cwm. Once u have cwm setup you will boot into recovery and select reinstall packages, this puts you into cwm.
Know to flash the kernel go to "install zip from sdcard" and locate the zip( Bali kernel ) and confirm installation. Let it do its thing and BAM you have Bali kernel. HOPE THIS HELPS YA.
**edit**
To navigate in recovery and cwm use the volume keys to go up and down and power to select.

I know i sound like a noob, and i agree that i am in terms of Samsung phones.

Follow the link above to get cwm final. Make sure you push the files to the correct spot as mentioned in the post. After that just download icbinb and flash through cwm. Before your flash make sure your mounts are like so
Unmount cache
Mount data
Mount sdcard
Unmount system
This is how the mounts should look before you flash and before rebooting after the flash. Hope this helps ya and good luck

With cwm final (orange cwm) there is no voodoo. But once you install the Bali kernel cwm will turn red and give you another option which is voodoo. Know to dissable voodoo you just need to navigate to voodoo once in cwm(red) and make sure it is dissabled. Youll see what everyone is talking about once you get a rom with Bali kernel or just flash Bali kernel with any froyo ROM.

I appreciate all your help.
Ive tried this multiple times with multiple sd cards. Not making a difference. I will look into to this issue still.
Till then im just stuck on stock........
I dont really like Samsung anymore. This was soo much easier on HTC phones, no ODIN, no Voodoo, none of that stuff.......
im going to odin one more time, see if that helps
EDIT: Seems like it worked didnt give me any issues this time!!!!!
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH.
im going to hunt down all of your posts and "Thank" them all
But first let me let it reboot
Glad you got it. And just to give you the heads up it is rumored that kd1 has a bad system partition and has caused issues with other user myself included. I personally cant say that it is or if its just ghost in the machines but somtimes it ok and somtimes not. So I would recommend grabing the kc1 stock for Odin if you havent already.
Also if you plan on sticking with the sgs4g I would recommend checking out the sgs4g Bible in the developers section of our forum. I appreciate the thanks and happy modding

+1... I would have just told him to spend some time reading on the site rather than asking someone to play tutor. You are clearly more patient than I am.

All you guys have helped me tremendously and I want to pass that help onto others. Happy modding sgs4g community.

[Q] Help

Is this the right mod for my SGH-T959? HERE
If so I had trouble installing it. I'm not sure what method works. The only method that worked so far is here [[Heimdall][One-Click][UVKJ6] The KJ6 Heimdall One-Click Collection [12/11/2011]] But its not the Rom I wanted.. I want to install the latest cyanogenmod
Nope. If it's a t959 you have a vibrant. Go to the proper forums for your phone. Look under your battery for the model number.
if it's a t959v then yes you're in the right forums.

This is definitely something you should know before you try flashing anything.

Yeah sorry man but e don't have cm yet. Some if the way more experienced devs are working on it.
It might be a while.
Try valhalla black in the mean time, it's pretty good. (flash regular valhalla, then valhalla black to avoid app problems, just a quick tip)

Is there a Rom that has a really good performance for it like good speed and not a lot of lags. I want a phone that wont skip or lag when I'm playing offline games or just browsing the phone ya know?

Yeah I thought there would be a better rom lol
EDIT: Can you tell me where to find both of them? and the best way to install it cause for some reason I cant get CwM to work on my phone and I could try using adb with cmd but I don't want to risk messing up my phone again :X
RE EDIT: Umm... I installed [ROM] ACID presents ICBINB and for some reason its been at the green android dude for couple of mins now and its not going anywhere he's just popping up and better then disappear then it does it again over and over again. oh, and it vibrates every so often.

You flashed a Froyo 2.2 ROM on GB 2.3 boot loaders. It might work but your recovery will be all screwy. Your probably soft bricked so back to heimdall. There is an icbinb for kj6. Search development
