Try to reflash firmware using odin.
Maybe i do reflashing wrong.
I do
1) Going in to download mode
2) opening odin v 182
3) selecting pda xxkpq.tar.md5
4) unchecking repartition
5) start
then everything works and it says passed
but when it restarts it stucks in the startup samsung doing and doing the same startup screen with intervals

just enter into download mode.then flash xxkpe (all options wid repartition checked)just allow it to be booted till the homescreen and then again go into diwnload mode and flash xxkpq(repartition unchecked)
I installed utterchaos v9 1009 and it worked. But it started with factory default settings. But the problem is everytime the phone turns on it starts with factory default settings. every time asks me to choose locale, languages and e.t.c.
I will try flashing to xxkpe
Are you sure that the Factory Settings issue wasn't caused by you flashing XXKPE first then XXKPQ?
Try reflashing again.

You will only get the select locale etc just once....
Do not factory reset everytime.
I know the problem here. You flashed from UC kernel , and you must have a partition that was converted to EXT4. you then flashed stock kernel but of course your phone will not boot after that, because stock kernel does not support EXT4 format. after you flashed stock kernel you should go into recovery menu and wipe/factory reset, so the partition will go back to default format, and you can still retain stock kernel.
Delete this message I dont know how I didnt read above that you already got your solution

I tried to flash a aokp rom and before flashing made a back up. Now when I flashed the rom and rebooted the phone im stuck at samsung boot. I can get into recovery. At first it was a messed up recovery i tried to get to an old rom and reinstalled inimitable on reboot still stuck at samsung but can get into red recovery. Backup when reinstalling says cant mount system/! please help me asap I cant do anything I need my phone I am in panic mode.
Have tried reflashing The ROM again...or if you just want to go back to stock see my signature for links to the one click method
...btw your in the wrong section to post this...
The OP for aokp does state to flash twice...did you?...first time with wipes, then you can pull battery ...go back to cwm and reflash...again.
going back to stock is your way. clear all that crap out

Post two to put cwm back on....
Read with detail...the thread I provided....
Your probably going to need to go back to stock, but just so you know, flashing any ICS rom while on Gingerbread bootloaders will get you a "Messed up recovery" You'd have to flash ICS bootloaders, but doing that means you can't flash any non ICS roms, I personally still have a rainbowed recovery on the off chance I want to flash GB rom.

We have no ics boot loaders...froyo boot loaders make the recovery look funky...gingerbread boot loaders fix that problem and can be used with froyo, gingerbread and ics ...not trying to be rude or a jerk just informing you
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA
Actually the "messed up" or rainbow recovery is from the lack of gingerbread boot loaders, just figured this out this morning when I attempted to flash aokp uniporn. Once I did the heimdall one click with bootloaders checked (gingerbread boot loaders) I was able to successfully flash the aokp rom and recovery works perfectly. Its really better not to reply when one does not know what they are talking about oh and I was still able to reflash a gingerbread rom as well although I probably won't go back to gingerbread again since aokp is the **** and runs super smooth

Please move this thread from the Development Section.
edit- Thanks for moving it.
Sorry about posting so quickly in wrong section. I just know the guys who post in here are pros. I used heimdall and everything is back to stock, no superuser. Should that be right, am I now not rooted? I havent tried to boot into recovery, but I think I have it still. Can I just follow root methods if I want to go back to root? Thanks again.
I my experiences, I've noticed our phones use a form of "Cumulative" Upgrade system, where You have to essentially go from Froyo to GB to ICS or things go haywire when you actually start using your ICS Rom..
I've tried using Heimdall to flash back to stock, but it doesn't seem to fix all my files from time to time, so I still use GTGs Ultimate Unbrick, and once it starts up as you're in Recovery Mode do a Factory Reset/Wipe Cache Partitions, it helps with not having the "Google Authentication Failed".
It's a long process from start to finish either way, so i figure save yourself the hassle for the long run and wipe it fresh...
I used heimdall without clicking the GB bootloaders checkbox. Upon reboot after sucessfully flashing everything, my phone shows the rainbow color thing then boots normally. I have no seen any issues other than that, however I only got it back up and running about an hour ago. I will see as the day progresses what happens. I just would like to know where I go from here to reacquire root priveleges. When I try to boot into recovery with the button combo I get a rainbow colored screen and nothing else showing, should I re-run heimdall with gb bootloaders box checked?
IME, one flash will lock on Samsung logo, 3 finger back to recovery, wipe everything, flash the rom again and flash the gapps and it would have been fine...
I have that happen everytime I have flashed an AOKP ics..it always works out fine..
Those instructions are in most of the OP's...
Its very important to read that and have an understanding of what exact steps there are before you just start flashing away...

What's going on guys,I've got a problem here that I need your help with.
After flashing a new 2.3.6 ROM my phone just won't boot up, here's how it went down.
I flashed the new ROM and it worked great for about 1 month and suddenly it stopped booting up, since then I've tried flashing a huge load of ROMs trying to get it to work but so far nothing has worked.
I've tried flashing with the MMC in, without it and I've also tried flashing with and without the latona.pit file, as I said above nothing has worked.
After the flashing here's what I see in the Android System Recovery Menu:
Your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions
Meida files copy failed

I can get the phone to download mode, and it shows the Samsung animation but without sound, and it keeps bootlooping.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

ok, so you were running a custom rom for a month, and for that month there were no problems. then, all of a sudden, with no further modifications and no alterations of any settings, it quit working? was it having any sort of problems, like difficulty booting or coming out of sleep, etc., or was it really with no warning at all? there was no overheating at all either?
what were your governor settings?
you say that flashing pit, along with the roms listed above, didn't work, but what was the message you got after running it in odin?

It wasn't a custom ROM that I installed, it was an official one that was posted on XDA.
No errors were shown in ODIN, the only errors are the ones on the phone which I posted above.
Yeah, it stopped working without me doing any modifications.
I flashed a one file rom and it worked great for about a month then it stopped working and I downgraded to a 3-file rom, flashing the 3-file rom WITHOUT the External SD gave the same error I've posted above, I flashed it WITH the External SD and it worked great for a few months but when I removed the SD card while the phone was on, it would just hang and I would have to restart the phone again with the SD card in which made me believe the OS was installed on the SD card. But this stopped working after another month and here I'm.
The problem right now is, I get the error despite whether the SD card is in or out.
I've done some research on this and I see that this problem MAYBE caused by partitioning issues that could be fixed with "dbdata.rfs" IN GALAXY S, (the same error has been fixed on the Galaxy S with the "dbdata.rfs" file) but I haven't been able to find the "dbdata.rfs" file in any of the roms for i9003.
did u unmount ur sd card before removing it?anyway,u can continue trying to flash other rom available since u can still enter download mode.do try flashing with rom that got bootloader(4files rom) on odin.
anyway,this thread actually belongs to general section man.do explore xda properly before u start posting a thread..
in addition to what rarap said, switching your sd cards with the swap is one thing that causes problems. I'm sure you know the purpose of the swap, but in most cases (or all, can't say for sure), these swaps don't fix the commands for ejecting sd cards, so even though you do the "eject" command, it will still give you the warning that you removed a card without stopping it, hence the hang when you removed it.
do a full five file flash. backup first, then reset all data, then flash pit, then 4 files of kpe and then whichever GB you were using (PDA ONLY!) and do not make any mods. then see if you have issues.

EDIT: Tried it, doesn't work give the error "E:failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)"
Ok so yesterday I received a cappy from someone on here that I told them I would try and fix. I am not charging them anything and am actually paying shipping back to them. When I received it and turned it on it was stuck at the end of the cornkernel bootlogo. I thought hey this will be easy and flashed the heimdall version of I897UCKK4 Stock, Wipe, with options to install Bootloaders, Param,and Re-partition-One-Click. Phone rebooted and is now stuck at the att logo. So I flash cornkernel, its stuck at the end of cornkernel bootup. So I decided on a whim to try and flash this kernel Devil3_1.1.3_HB_cappy_CFS_BLN_VC_20120807, luckily that got me into recovery, so I did a full backup of all the stuff on his internal storage and completely wiped the phone, wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, format boot, format system, format sdcard, format cache, format data, format datadata (yes I know I wiped some things twice) . Then I flashed my rom, it just reboots to recovery after the flash, still reboots after a reflash of the rom. I then wiped everything again and tried flashing CM9's latest nightly to see if I could get it to boot up. Still reboots to recovery. So far all together I have flashed I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears, i897uckk4 Odin One Click CONTAINS Bootloaders, Re-partition, Full Wipe, I897UCKF1_withBL,SGH-I897_I897UCKJ3, KK4-SE-One-Click, JF6 With Bootloaders, SamsungCaptivate-SGHi897-UCKB2-Rooted-One-Click Followed By I897UCKK4 Stock, Wipe, with options to install Bootloaders, Param,and Re-partition-One-Click both are heimdall. All of those either left it stuck at att or kernel screen after I flashed a kernel. Anyone got any ideas? I am almost to my wits end.
Try the Odin version of this... Stock KK4 one click...it will do ya a full wipe and repartition for sure.

Not that I know of, It isn't my phone so I do not know the history other than him saying it didn't boot past the kernel screen and receiving it and seeing that and then what I have done. Normally the sd card data from what I have seen is wiped when the eu bug happens from what I have read, maybe I am wrong, but since I backed up his data off the sdcard that is why I do not believe it has had the eu bug.
Anyone have any more ideas, I tried the EU Bug Instructions @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1447303&page=85 Replacing the vold.fstab in the rom and also flashing it with CWM without luck. I am still stuck with it rebooting to recovery. I am still waiting on him to tell me his address again so I can mail it back to him since at this point I am lost. I told him MobileTechVideos would more than likely be his best shot at getting it fixed though.

Long story short, recovery is iffy at best for me. I went through something similar to this when trying to go from CM10 back to CM9 for the first time. Ever since then recovery has not been right.
What I did was
Install a stock one-click with bootloaders, used odin to flash speedmod kernel and then used that recovery to flash CM9 in three successions wiping everything each time. Somehow it took, and now I am no longer a crack flasher because I have the same kernel splash screen problem every time.
So,
Use this http://www.mediafire.com/?5rcofbzusoor6mv
PDA button in Odin3 1.7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=566807&d=1302623831
Boot into recovery.
Flash your ROM
Wipe /system, /data, and dalvik.
reboot recovery.
Flash again.
Wipe /system, /data, and dalvik.
reboot recovery.
Flash again.
Try to boot normally.
Thanks for the idea, but it's a no go, Phone just stops at Galaxy S SGH-I897 Kernel Screen. I can't even get to recovery. Only way I have got to recovery with this phone was flashing an ICS kernel.
There is a place that has rogers stock roms

I have already tried all three of the Rogers One Clicks with none of them actually doing anything more than the Captivate One Clicks, It still doesn't boot past the first screen. Thanks for the input though.
You've been using a one click with 2.3.3 bootloaders, they're are 2.3.5 bootloaders available that have solved certain peoples sleepdeath issues, including mine. I've done this procedure on several captivates to take them from mangled and non-bootable to latest bootloaders and working recovery to flash whatever rom I need to from there on.
Use this one click that includes the 2.3.5 bootloaders - http://fohdeesha.com/data/other/android/i897uckk4 with latest BL.zip
After that goes through and you have stock gingerbead, use this odin package to flash the included devil kernel package, that will give you the latest CWM recovery
http://fohdeesha.com/data/other/android/uckk4 CWM recovery.zip
After that, if you still can't boot into recovery, you have a hardware issue
edit: looks like you already did this more or less.......try it once more in this order? Then once you do this and boot into recovery, flash a rom and see if it will work

I am waiting to hear back from the person so I can ship him the phone back and he can send it to MTV or someone or just junk it, its his phone and his choice. At this point I would say it needs Jtag or Unbrickable mod + repair. Although I am still trying ideas of mine and anyone elses lol.
EDIT: Still A No Go. Doesn't Boot Past ATT Screen After Flashing The Odin 1 Click, After Flashing Kernel then wiping and flashing rom, it just reboots to recovery
Well if the one clicks are successfully writing primary and secondary bootloaders and it's still not working, a jtag isn't going to do anything else. It almost sounds like the memory has a few corrupt blocks, but I can't say until you flash 2.3.5 BL's and see what happens

Oh jeez looks like the memory is failing then
hello, let me explain what i did and maybe theres a solution one you pros can help with.....
gt6210
So one day i decided to root and eventually backup everything. So i went directly to this guide but didn't install the pernament cwm thru odin like the guide said.
I decided i didnt need root, and rather not have it on my tab and not knowing how to remove i decide just to flash back to stock HC the update
to ICS thru kies like i did before. so it just sat there in a endless boot loop for 30 mins going thru the samsung animation. so i figured i would
wipe cache and do a factory reset.
Now its locked at the samsung logo, flashed back to stock HC, same thing stuck, only download mode available wont go into recovery,
flash to leaked ICS that was in the guide above still stuck but i got the recovery 3e screen.
So i figured i just bricked it thru the EMMC bug when i reset/wiped thru the stock recovery.....
i went to this EMMC fix guide and from the recovery 3e i ran cwm.zip that was in the
root guide and ran emmc_find_brick_start.zip it scanned and never stopped just came back to cwm screen.
what next? ive been flashing different pit file, going back to hc and ics etc.........
i dont want to sound like a tool, although i feel like one ATM i really need my tablet. I'm on dialysis right now waiting
for a kidney transplant and i spend a lot of time at the hospital surfing on this thing and i can't afford to buy a new one
since i'm disability.
any ideas/suggestions? throw them on here, ill try anything.
forgot to mention on the recovery 3e sceen at the bottom it says
installing package
E:failed to mount /system (invalid arguement)
E:main :: can't mount /systemE:failed to mount /system (invalid arguement)
what does this mean?

If you still have CWM as your recovery, then your attempts to flash stock ROM with ODIN failed.
Did you get an error?
What happens when you try to flash stock ROMs?
Have you tried Flashing the Stock ICS Rom with Odin?

After this, put this advice in ur mind...IF U ON ICS, DO NOT WIPE DATA OR CLEAR CACHE USING 3eRECOVERY OR TEMPORARY RECOVERY...but u safe if u using permenant CWM...chill

you made your life harder than it should have, to unroot, just install SuperSU, and use its "Full Unroot" function. Don't forget to uninstall Superuser. Note that for next time.
Have you tried flashing to any ICS stock rom through Odin/Heimdall? If you did, which one did you use? If not, you could try flashing this one from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777303 first and see how it goes.

sorry i had to edit my links, not enough post count to enable outside links.....
i tried to odin stock hc from the gt6210 root guide and on reboot i got errors, see the HC pic attachment
couldn't get the stock recovery, so i flashed cwm 6.0.1.9 and no matter how many
tries or button pushes i couldn't get in the recovery screen (battery symbol flicker for a sec)
Am i flashing incorrectly? i load up the files under PDA.
i then tried flashing GT_P6210_ICS_Latest_Leak_Odin_Package.zip from the same root guide.
and got more errors see "ics reboot"attachment
i popped the cwm.zip file (temporary CWM as described in the root guide)
cwm temp pic
i ran the 120824-151927-emmc_find_brick_start.zip thru this twice and it finished its
scan and came back to the menu.
i found a another version on cwm that can be installed by sdcard
now only then under ics and this version of cwm can i use the vol+ and power to get into recovery.
ran the brick start file here as well same thing ran thru then came back to the menu.
i'm rereading the EMMC guide again since i don't feel out of wack like the last couple of days
****update, i figure i'd flash ics and cwm 6.0.1.9 again and it finally let me get into the menu, now running the EMMC start
if you can successfully flash stock ICS (just flash it and NOT the CWM first) and it boots. , Then you don't have EMMC bug issues. Otherwise it would fail.

If I use Odin to flash stock HC or ICS it always says successful, on reboot that's when I get errors like in the attachment in my last post. eMMC files (start and end) they scan everything then says completed. It never froze at all.
If its not the bug what is it that gives those errors? Those stock files are from the gt6210 root guide and have used before.
So am I not flash correctly on Odin?

I still don;t understand what error you are getting.?
If you flash the stock rom in odin and nothing else, what happens?
IF you flash only the stock rom in ODIN and you still see what you show on the pictures when it boots, you have a corrupt update file on your SD card. Remove the SD card
