How to recover from boot loop? - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

I was flashing the official ROM 2.3.5 Gingerbread using odin 3.07 for my Galaxy SL i9003 but ended up in boot loop.
Before the boot loop starts, it shows that it can't access to ' /system/csc/SER/system/ ' as in the picture.
How do I solve this?

Usually bootloop can be solved by restoring backup or restart from the beginning. Well, I'm no Dev so I don't know what it meant.

Try to wipe all data again, it always helps me. And if it doesn't work, flash xxkph with pit, let the phone start and then again go into download mode and flash lf2.

Extract the CF-Root zip to get the zImage .... then convert it to tar using
Code:
$ tar -H ustar -c zImage > CFroot.tar
from Linux or Cygwin...
Flash using Odin...

[Q] Bricked ... Boot loop.. Samsung Galaxy SL gt-i9003

My phone galaxy sl gt-i9003 was running was rooted and running on codename(android) when I flash some random kernel and bricked it. I then read though lots of xda-developers threads and followed whatever was said there. It goes into recovery and download mode. So i flashed the stock ROM( which i had downloaded from sammobile ). But after that it got stuck in boot loop. Then I tried flashing a few ROM suggestions given here in xda. But each time I either got back a bricked phone or boot loop problem. Help Please!!!:crying:

I9003DXKB2 is my SL's original firmware since i bough it though
but might help you...
i did all those because i want my SL to run CM10 Alpha 4 jelly bean
i downloaded the stock roms from "[ROM] STOCK ROMS for GALAXY SL I9003" thread in the developers section...

download firmware from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1004647
Thank you all for replying. I solved the problem. I had forgotten to factory reset after flashing stock rom. Now its as good as new. Also I had this doubt. Is it required that you factory reset after every flash?

Im not really an expert but i'll try..
Can you enter odin mode? If yes, then you can flash your stock HC rom.. but guessing from your problem.. do you know how to use odin? If dont, try to do some research.. so heres my tip..
1. Find your stock HC firmware at www.samfirmware.com
2. Flash the firmware via odin..
3. (From experience) it will boot loop in the samsung animation
4. Dont worry.. enter recovery and do both wipes
5. Your boot will now proceed..
BEFORE I FORGET.. WIPING IS SAFE ON STOCK HC ROM.. DO NOT WIPE FROM STOCK ICS ROM.. I REPEAT DO NOT WIPE FROM STOCK ICS ROM
PEOPLE OUT THERE.. PLEASE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG..
IM JUST HELPING OUR FRIEND HERE..

[Q] after update to JB, not able to downgrade

Since upgrading to JB 4.1.2, I am not able to downgrade to ICS. After the flashing ICS via odin or for that matter mobile odin, is complete, it goes into a boot loop. Only way way out was again flash Jelly bean, it worked. Is there any firmware with full components like pda separate file, CSC separate file and phone separate file? I have heard that we need to flash these separate files via odin to downgrade. can anybody give a download link for the same?
Do you have a CWM back-up from a previous ROM?

you must go to stock ricovery ( with power + volum up ) and then wipe data
( your data are remove ( factory riset )
sorry for my bad ENGLISH
But I have heard that if one wipes factory reset through stock recovery, I am afraid one is liable to get bricked devices.

I would research the factory reset option. It shouldn't brick your device.

NO! Wipe data in STOCK recovery brick your device, but if you wipe in CWM you are safe.

Just to make it clear.. wiping from stock is Safe IF you are in HC or JB ( someone said its safe ) but a big NO in ICS because it causes the tab to be bricked.. wiping from CWM on all roms is SAFE.. pls.. get your facts right..

If you want to downgrade from official JB to official ICS, you have to have .pit file
You can search pit file for P6200 in XDA and using odin to flash official ICS with option re-partition checked
First time, when my friend downgrade without .pit file, tab got stuck at SS logo even wipe everything fully. With .pit file, it succeeded

Is it necessary to have three different files ie pda, phone and csc when using pit file eith repartition checked?
Sent from my GT-P6200 using xda premium
No, just ICS Stock Rom with .pit file
P6200 pit file in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667886) works fine
You can downgrade to HC, do wipes and flash ICS.
i usually do encounter this on my 7.7 when i flash hc from ics...what i did was wipe the device using cwm after flashing the older firmware to fix the bootloop...
my friend have tab 7 plus and i'm planning to flash jb on it...is the stock JB recovery free from the brickbug?

I used the pit file and the ics stock and flashed using odin, the flashing went off smoothly with odin saying success. But after booting mine stuck at the samsung animation for eternity. Again I had no other alternative than flash jb back again.

Did you check option re-partition in Odin?
By the way, stuck at SS logo is quite often happened if you did not wipe. You should try to perform full wipe.
There is an issue related to wipe using ICS stock recovery, you should use Odin to flash CWM recovery (without .pit file) and use CWM recovery to wipe.

when you are stuck in bootloop flash cwm recovery and do a full wipe..that will fix it...avoid full reset using stock recovery to prevent brickbug

If you mean Odin(which is the flashtool for Samsung), I have tried using it to flash stock firmware but I get a bootloop. If it is anything else please specify or give a link.
You need to flash stock rom I don't have Samsung phone so I don't have link but search a bit you will get it.... Somewhere!

Flash full DDLF2 from following link with odin with pit/pda/modem/csc/bootloader
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2329200
Use only Odin 1.85, download from above link.
Once booted, go to the recovery Select Factory Reset, Reboot.
Remove the battery boot the phone into download mode and Flash DDLF2 again.
The procedure is if you are coming from other custom rom with different partition then Flash twice, factory reset inbetween.
