Hi all, long time reader first time poster...
I have tried to help someone with their Samsung Galaxy S i9000 but I have run in to a problem where it only shows the boot screen where is says "Samsung Galaxy S, GT i9000", but I'm able to get into CWM and download mode.
I would like some guidance please
I'm able to get into clockwork mod recovery v 2.5.1.0 but the weird thing is it wont see the internal SD that has a copy of CyanogenMod 7 on it so I'm unable to install it. I'm worried I'm going to break it so would someone please give me some help on what I could do i.e install a new kernal using Odin or something, bit of a noob trying to help someone out.
p.s no idea how they go to this stage, it's also a UK phone on Orange if that helps at all! Any help would be much appreciated.
*** FIXED ***
Just in case someone else has this issue see this thread, this fixed my issue

Sorry but I don't know anything about flashing samsung devices. But if you manage to get it into downloading mode it is most certainly not bricked. The reason I reply is to tell you that you will more likely get helped in the galaxy s forum than here, you should probably ask over there again.
Cheers
Hello,
I encountered some trouble while trying to install CyanogenMod 7.2. I installed it, rebooted the device, but the OS was continuosly loading ( the circle was circling, then a quick reset, and back to that ).
Since i made a backup in went to recovery mode, loaded up my original backup, but when i start the phone all i get is the Galaxy Ace GT-S5830 message and the samsung message underneath it, but it wont boot up.
I have also tried restoring it to factory settings and that did not work either.
If anybody has a solution for this i would greatly appriciate it!
Thanks.
EDIT: Im sorry if this is in the wrong section, had many links of the forum opened
EDIT2 : Got CyanogenMod working, but i would very much rather go back to the original OS, need your help !
So basically I recently decided that it would be a BRILLIANT idea to upgrade my tablet to 4.4+ so I could use Pokemon GO on it, but lo and behold I have gotten to the point where I have hit a wall
As the title says, it's a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 SGH-i497 that used to run 4.1.4 I believe, and I no longer can get past the boot screen, I can get into Recovery mode and Download mode, and I have a recovery save on Kies but Kies refuses to connect to the tablet in it's state, it just continues to attempt to connect forever.
I guess my question would be this...
Is there an OS that is SGH-i497 compatible that I can attempt to use through ODIN, or alternatively, can someone point out a good recovery file I can use through an SD-Card so I can at least use my tablet again.
I will be monitoring for the next 8 hours before bed to answer any questions and provide any more information that I can, and thank you very very much ahead of time if you can help, I've been combing through forums for the past 3-4 hours and finally decided to make an account to make a post. Hopefully if I can get this resolved, I can help people if they have a similar problem in the future.
Bump
Really hope someone knows something, at this point I honestly just want to get it back to it's normal stock stuff, I can't get it to connect to Kies when it's in download or recovery mode so my recovery files are on there and I don't know why it can't find the recovery files in the external SD card I have.
Bump
I'm screwed huh lol

How about you start by telling us what you did to get to this point?
Have you installed a custom recovery on it?
Have you done any reading on rooting, installing roms etc?
I recently acquired one of these as well, and I have yet to find somewhere definitely that says that custom roms can be used on it.
If you find one, please reply back though!
