Hi all,
I am trying to put cyanogenmod 9 on my Samsung Galaxy Gio. Following these instructions found here
Download: px-CWM-v2.zip
Place it on root of your sdcard
reboot to recovery mode
install this cwm from recovery
results in me not being able to boot into recovery (after following the above instructions). The phone said that the installation was successful.
When I try to boot into recovery all I get is a black screen with the Samsung logo on it. If I try to turn it off it just goes into a boot loop. So I am unable to continue with the next part of the installation process.
If I remove the battery and put it back in then power on normally, the phone boots and runs normally.
Current OS: Froyo 2.2.1 XXKB9 (Baseband XKB8).
Model: GT-S5660
Rooted: Yes (used SuperOneClick).
Can anyone tell me what has happened and how I can fix it?
Thanks for your time.
Best Regards
Bidski
Just an update.
I can still get into download mode (hold vol -, home, and power button simultaneously until yellow "downloading..." appears on screen) and I can also get into emergengy downloand mode (hold vol -, vol +, home, and power button simultaneously until sansumg logo and "Emergency Dload" appear on the screen).
But I still cannot access recovery mode (hold home and power simultaneously).
Using Odin (version 4.42 I believe) and the download mode I can re-flash the original stock ROM and this allows recovery mode to work again as normal. However, attempting the steps that I mentioned in my first post lead to the same result.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Best Regards

Hello
If you can enter into download mode you can update your firmware to 2.3.6 and root again. This will help. sammobile.com <-- here u can find firmware to yours phone.

OK, I have gingerbread flashed on to my galaxy gio. All seems good and I managed to get recovery flashed and have done a backup. Recovery seems to work fine too. I used a different version of recovery that I found on this site that says it worked for rfs and ext4 partitions (trying to find this post again ).
My question now is do I need to flash an ext4 converter before I flash cm9?

Got recovery from this post.
I also downloaded the ext4 formatter from that post, but have not used it yet as I am not sure I need to or not.

Download original stock rom from http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-S5660&r=4#regiona
Boot into download mode (hold vol -, home, and power button simultaneously until yellow "downloading..." appears on screen).
Connect Odin, load the original stock ROM into Odin and flash.
Odin should reboot your phone once it has finished its business.
Good luck.

I used samsung kies to recovery it back turned out my phone can't be on now. Odin can't detect my phone too.
I suggest to flash an Original Firmware, ROOT it, Have CWM (Clockwork Mod) installed and proceed with your custom ROM installation

Hi all, my galaxy s wont go past the boot screen. I am rooted with cf-root and I flashed a custom rom (miui) with Rom Manager. Then I wanted to go back to previous rom so i flashed CWM recovery backup and when it was finished it just froze on startup screen. I can still boot into recovery mode and download mode but when i boot to recovery mode is says "E:unknown volume for path". and now I also tried to flash stock gingerbread firmware with odin 1.85 but keeps failing.

You got a Samsung Galaxy Grand 2? There are so many types that its quite usefull posting full information, that others can easily understand what you mean. You can try finding a recovery flashable via odin or you can install a full stock rom, some times there are stockroms already rooted to download. In every case a working recovery is one of the BASIC features, using phone without a workung one can be quite risky. If your system crashes you may be can't install a new one!!!
If i find suitable recovery i post the link BUT for that i need you full phone type and in best case the firmware (not rom) installed at the moment,
I have Galaxy trend plus s7580.

Solution is probably:
Flash firmware via ODIN.
Open stock recovery.
Wipe data.
Wipe cache.
Phone will be fine
stock recovery does not open

I don't know which region you need.
Have you checked Sammobile ? Type s7580 to get the right firmwares listed.
i need a Poland version. I downloaded it and it does not work either.
I tred S7580XXUBOA1_S7580ITVBOA1_S7580XXUBOA1_Home.tar also but nothing.

for s duos 2 : press volume up+home+power = recovery
if you flashed any recovery before rooting so i think that maybe the recovery that you flashed is not valid. however you can tree to flash another recovery or flash stock recovery , also flashing stock rom with odin may resolve the problem. good luck.
i have galaxy trend plus s7580 (similar to sduos2 ) . i used sandpox recovery and it fully working.

It was a fake because I tried the download mode on a real samsung and it worked instantly. It's already in the trash. **** the chinese scammers. May they rot in hell.
Hi. My SG S6 G920i still stucks in bootloop even I flash the new firmware from sammobile via Odin.
I have a screenshot of its firmware when I updated to 6.0.1: G920IDVU3EPC6/G920IUUB3EPC6/G920IDVU3EPC2.
I download the same from sammobile and flash it via odin. It's success. But still in bootloop, and even Recovery Mode by pressing volumn up + power + home button does not work.
Can anyone help with this?
Do I need to flash the firmware when I firstly bought it?
I did not root or did anything to that phone.
Just normal using, and it restarted and hanged in samsung logo forever.
I'm trying to go to recovery mode (volumn up + power + home), but it does not work.
One thing work is going to Odin mode (download mode).
