[Q] samsung i9003 unable to factory reset and boot loop

hi. my phone is samsung i9003. already rooted and upgraded to GB almost a year ago without any problem.
recently, it started rebooting on its own at first, i thought maybe it got a virus so I started uninstalling apps but it would reboot again. the apps I uninstalled are back again but the phone is saying error and I need to force close the apps. I did factory reset (vol down+ ok + power) but stil the same. I flashed it to another firmware thinking it will turn out ok but it got worse, set up wizard error and if i flash another firmware its the kernel error message. I read that its probably the internal sd that got fried and im better off buying a new one. is there any solution to this? thanks!

Did you made a clean install?

Ok, here the instructions for 100% clean install:
Download XXKPE from here (thanks to kkrraazzyy for this thread).

Click PIT button and select this file: latona_20110114.pit.
Set it to download mode : Press Volume down + OK first, then hold Power button.
Connect USB cable and the program will detect the phone's Com number.
Click Start button to download the PIT file to phone.
After it is Done Click on Reset button.
Click PDA button and select this file: CODE_I9003XXKPE_CL409735_REV08_user_low_ship.tar.

Do not touch anything till you see PASS on the program window..
Factory reset.
thanks to Misledz for the instructions
If your problem solved, I advise you to Install DDMF1 after installing XXKPE (DDMF1 is smoother and better than all the other stock roms)
Download DDMF1 from here (thanks to karthik gowtham for the link)
Follow the value pack installation instructions.
hope this helped you

{Guide}{I-9505} How to flash baseband (modem) and Bootloader in Odin

Hi everyone, this is my little Guide how to flash a modem (baseband) or a bootloader, or both together in Odin. Reading many threads in the last weeks, has showed me there are many people who have problems with flashing via Odin. I hope this thread will help and result in a successful flash for you guys and girls.:fingers-crossed:
First of all, i want to say, i'm using Odin 3.09 for flashing.:good:
You can get it from here:
<MODERATOR EDIT - MALWARE LINK REMOVED>
I explain how to flash a modem and a bootloader together at the same time. You can follow the steps also for only one of both.
Everything you are doing with your phone is on your own risk. I am not responsible for anything.
So let's start with the flash:
You have downloaded your modem (let's say NB9....tar.md5) and your bootloader? OK, so
1. rightclick on Odin and start it as administrator.
2. Now open the windows taskmaster. End all "Kies" processes.
3. In Odin untick "Auto reboot"
4. For the bootloader select BL and browse to your bootloader file.
5. For the modem select CP and browse to your modem file.
The next step is VERY IMPORTANT
6. Power off your phone
7. Start your phone into download mode by holding Vol down, and power button.
IMPORTANT: DON'T REBOOT INTO DOWNLOAD MODE FROM YOUR POWER MENU! ALWAYS USE THE THREE BUTTON COMBO!
8. Once your phone is in download mode, connect it to your PC. (Best results always with your original Samsung USB cable)
Odin should say "Added" now.
9. Press the Start button in Odin and let it do it's magic.:cyclops:
wait about 2 - 5 minutes.
10. When Odin shows "PASS" you can unplug your phone.
IMPORTANT: WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE "PASS" DO NOT UNPLUG THE PHONE BEFORE!
11. When you have unplugged your phone, it is still in download mode. Just hold the power button about 8 seconds until your phone reboots.
DONE
Go to Settings/my device/about phone. There you will see your new baseband.:good:
To check if the bootloader was flashed correct you need a terminal emulator.
type: su (press enter)
Type: getprop ro.bootloader (press enter)
The result shows wich bootloader you have.
THANKS TO: @Wuby986 who teached me many many things.

Well done!! And if i helped somehow i am really happy mate !!!!

Well, i think there is a problem with the display if is booting and in recovery is the same. You can try to flash with odin stock firmware but you have to do it "blind". Search for odin tutorial anf follow step by step even if you don't see enithing on screen.

If you want to go blind into download mode maybe the following will help:
1: hold power volume down and home button for around 5/6 seconds then let them go
2: press the volume up key and see if odin recognize the device.

Before we proceed, make sure:
1-You have installed your Samsung Galaxy SII Plus GT-I9105/P USB drivers on your PC.
2-You need to enable USB debugging mode (Settings>Developer options) which is deactivated by default.
3-Your SII Plus GT-I9105/P should have 70-80% charge remaining.
4-Your SII Plus GT-I9105/P should be factory unlocked.
5-Backup your important data like Call logs, SMS and other data stored in phone memory in case if anything goes wrong, your data is not hurt.
6-Make sure that kies program is not running & disable antivirus.
How to do it:
Step 1) Turn OFF your mobile and go to Download Mode by pressing and holding the Volume Down + Home Buttons together for few seconds followed by Power button then proceed with volume up. (For some phones, when you see the construction Android robot and a triangle, press Power again to confirm to enter into Download Mode).
Step 2) Now open ODIN on your PC and connect your Galaxy SII Plus GT-I9105/P to your computer.
Step 3) Once your phone is successfully connected to your PC, the ID:COM box on ODIN will turn blue and will show the COM port number.
Step 4) unzip the downlowded file, u will get a Home.tar file.
Step 5) click on pda in odin (if odin 3.09 choose AP) and choose the file "xxxx.tar.md5"
Step 6) check "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" options and make sure that "Re-Partition" is unchecked
!!!!DO NOT CHECK "Nand Erase All" IN ANY WAY!!!!
Step 7) Click on Start button in ODIN window to start the installation process. The process will take few minutes to complete.
DO NOT UNPLUG USB CABLE WHILE EXECUTING THE PROCESS, YOU MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE!
Step 8) When the installation is completed, you read a "Pass". your phone will restart (first boot will take a longer time so don't panic)
It is recommended to make hard reset after flashing to have a fresh official firmware.

[Completed] Samsung Galaxy SM-J100H - Can I fix this?

Hello,
My friend gave me a Samsung Galaxy SM-J100H because it wouldn't go past the Samsung Logo so I tried to root it. I used Odin and everything seemed to be going well until it restarted. When it restarted it said there was a problem with the USB connection. A window appeared with 3 different device drivers and the first two checked with a green tick and the 3rd the Samsung one gave me a red cross. I quickly tried to reinstall the USB driver but to no avail.
Now, I can't get into the Power+Home+Volume Up menu, all I can get is the Power+Home+Volume Down to work which brings up Press Volume Up to Continue. When I do that, even without the USB plugged in it just says Downloading.... Do not turn off target!! I left this overnight in case it somehow cached the root but to no avail.
Have I bricked it totally? Is there any way I can recover this? Is there a program that will wipe everything completely so I can start from Scratch? I refuse to believe that I can't solve a software issue with software. Is there something in the hardware I can do that would wipe everything like using a Jumper to clear the CMOS and BIOS for a PC, is there anything like that I could do? I know there would be any jumpers but maybe connecting certain connections it could effectively wipe it?
Even when I try to start again with Odin I can't since it will just go straight to Downloading.... Do not turn off target!! as soon as I press Volume Up.
Is there ANYTHING I can do?

Hi there and welcome to assist,
If you can enter in download mode using combo Power+Home+Volume Down then you can flash stock firmware. Search with google for this firmware and flash thru Odin.
Flashing instructions:
 Extract (unzip) the firmware file
 Download Odin v3.11.1
 Extract Odin ZIP file
 Open Odin v3.11.1
 Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
 Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
 Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
 Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
 Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes
