Problem with recovery.

Hello everyone. I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy Fit (GT-S5670). I can not set it to recovery mode, to install a custom rom.
I try with Odin Multi Downloader v4.38 to do this recovery. But after the first step of cell phone lights up and does not wish to continue the process. I have to manually shut down and enter into recovery mode (power button + volume down + home button). Odin recognizes manually enter in recovery, but does not continue beyond the <1> Connection Setup. Waiting for 10,20,30 minutes, but still standing in this proceeding, and the cell phone does not respond to any button.
And now the problem is impossible not to enter into recovery mode. When I try indicator of a dice with no possibility of moving the volume keys up and down.
Mobile phone is rooted with Super One click root (I think that the program is called).
The Android phone is installed with the basic version 2.2.1 S5670XXKA7. Kernel: 2.6.32.9-perf root @ dell105 # 1 and version number FROYO.XWKC1.
Can you help me? Which Android system is best for this type of phone, ie the most stable and fastest.
If something means, the mobile is in Croatia.
Thanks for your help, I hope you understand my problem.

I'm from Livno. I use S5670XWKT2 (Android 2.3.6). It is for the European space.

Have you tried entering recovery before using odin?
If your trying to flash CWM recovery over your current rom i suggest you update your android to gingerbread (2.3.x) and than try to flash CWM.
You can update your phone via Samsung Kies, i bought mine with 2.2.1 Froyo and updated it to 2.3.5 and then installed CWM via Odin...

Now is when I installed the Kies. They probably missed some drivers. I put up the Croatian software.
Thank you very much.
Now we can easily continue ...
If you get stuck you can tell the PM in Croatian because I did the best with English
It can only explanation yet as to put him on the flash for fast processor?

Greetings;
Have you solved your problem?
If not, tell me what Android version are you running on your device?
i.e: Gingerbread; Ice Cream Sandwich; Jelly Bean or KitKat.
Assuming you are running stock firmware i believe that either your brother flashed a wrong CF-Root for your device or used an application that could not root your device properly.
Either ways don't worry since your device can enter both Download and Recovery modes, it means that you can debug it.
[Rooting]
The best way to root this device is by flashing CF-Root file.
By flashing this file (CF-Root) you will be installing:
- ClockWork Mod Recovery
- Script that will root (automatically) your device.
- ext4 application. (do some research to know what ext4 is and how it os often used)
Small note: Since you will be rooted you will be able to overclock or underclock your device as well increase your device performance and battery duration.
Just PM me or do some research if you need some info regarding these configuration and settings.
[Fixing your issue]
Download Universal CF-Root here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351056
Read the instructions before proceeding.
Now boot your device under Download Mode.
To do so:
Unplug USB Cable, Power Off your device and press the following key combination:
Vol.Down + Menu/Home Button + Power Button.
Release when the device enters download mode.
Now open Odin.
Under [PDA] load the CF Root File you've downloaded.
(Do NOT change any options inside odin if you dont know what they are for. Or you may get your device useless).
Put down your device so movement is done into the USB Cable (just to prevent bad flashing when you have low quality USB Cable).
Press Start and let the operation to complete.
Odin will display a message saying: "Pass" highlighted with Green.
Check if your device restarts (it may not restart yet)
If your device boots properly backup your data and follow the next step. If it doesnt boot properly follow to the next step.
Voot your device into recovery mode.
To do so: Power off your device and make sure it is not charging or connected to USB cable.
Then press and hold the following key combination:
Vol. Up + Menu/Home Button + Power Button.
Release after the Boot Logo is shown and you will enter recovery mode.
Now you will perform a Factory Reset.
Inside CWM select by the following order:
- Wipe Dalvik Cache
- Clean Cache
- Factory Reset
Note that Dalvik Cache is not shown at the main menu.
I dont remember the location exactly but if im not mistaken you can find it under "Advanced".
After you perform these 3 options the device shall reboot properly.
(it may take a little bit longer this time. Just be patient).
Since i dont know what was done to your device, there is still a chance that your device wont boot.
Either ways please let me / us (at XDA) know if it worked for you.
It is important (at least for me as a quality standard) that you are able to repair your device.
Best Regards
Please press thank button if this helped you. Since this will keep me motivated to continue helping.

Thanks for your reply. Frankly speaking I don't remember which Android version I was using may be Gingerbread (Is this important)
I downloaded "bagaria-09.GT-I9003_PDA.tar" from the link given by you and following procedure that you have mentioned. After odin says "Pass" I switched off my mobile and started in Recover mode it took around 15-20 mins to show recovery option. after this performed
- Wipe Dalvik Cache
- Clean Cache
- Factory Reset
and then Reboot. As you said phone is stucked on boot image for more than 15 mins then an loop on "SAMSUNG" logo after more 15 mins phone is showing "kernel panic upload mode"
Can you help me further?

Hello amoghs;
Again sorry for answering after so long; I'm not so often at XDA Lately.
Yes.
1st: Try Remove the Battery, then Put it Back and Try Again.
If this doens't Work:
1) Turn your Device Off and Press:
Vol. UP + Home Button + Power (To Enter CWM / Your Recovery Mode)
2) Select: "Factory Reset"
Let me know how it worked for you.
Note:
- After Flashing a ROM it is Normal that your Device Takes a little Longer to Boot on the "1st" time.
- Phone Stuck on Boot Logo and Looping: Boot Issues (Either Requires to Remove and Place Back the Battery; or Re-Flash the ROM or Stock Rom in a Difficult Stage).
Notes:
- After a Flash Perform a Factory Reset (To Clean Up Old Stuff).
- If you Experience: "Kernel Panic":
a) Remove Battery and Place it Back - (Works on Most Cases)
b) Flash your ROM again and DO NOT Instal Custom Kernel (May be Wrong Kernel or Bad/Incompatible Kernel Programming)
c) Phone Restarts by Himself: Reflash ROM, Try MinFreeManager or Similar APK (Application). Try "Optimal" Settings. (I dont recall the Presets names - But you can Safely test them - Even if device gets stuck. You can always revert to previous state).
d) Any Hard-to-Solve Issues: Just do a "Clean Flash" of STOCK Gingerbread (Check Sammobile Website - Invalid Download Links Just send email to Support Requesting the File)
or Flash "DDLF2 2.3.6 (Also Gingerbread). But always try Stock 1st to remove most issues, and only then Flash your Desired ROM.
Also if you haven't fixed the Boot Issue already: Do note that you can recover your device Boot.
NOT Dead Yet!
Please do let me know if you solved your Boot problem.
Best Regards;

GUIDE: How to downgrade from Lollipop to KitKat 4.4.2

I had a problem where my Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-I337M) was stuck in a boot loop because of the Lollipop 5.0.1 update. I tried everything from going into recovery mode and factory resetting it to doing the smack method on it. Then I found this way by flashing the Android Kitkat 4.4.2 ROM back into my phone via Odin. Here are the steps to downgrade to KitKat 4.4.2:
NOTE: I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. please proceed if you know what you are doing.
Before you start:
Turn on USB debugging by going to Settings>More>Developer Options. (If you don't have developer options, go to Settings>More>About device and press the build number 5-10 times and developer mode will be enabled)
Make sure battery is charged at least 50%
Backup everything if you can or make sure you have a backup already done.
Have your phone plugged into the computer
After you done those things, you ready to begin. Here is what to do:
1. Download Odin v3.09. You can download it by copy and pasting the link. odindownload.com/
2. Download the firmware for your phone. Go to sammobile.com (You will have to create a free account first) and look up your model. (For Example: you will search SGH-I337M if you have a Canadian Galaxy S4). The Model info should be behind the battery. If you don’t know or can’t find it, comment below and I will find it for you. Make sure you have the right carrier as well if it says so.
NOTE: Downloading the firmware may take a while if you have a slow internet connection. If you have a slow internet connection, make sure your computer doesn't sleep overnight while its downloading.
3. Extract both files to your computer.
4. Open Odin v3.09
5. On your Galaxy S4, Turn off your device. When its shut off, press the Power>Hone, and VOLUME DOWN key at the same time. You will see this pop up. (Image called 5-custom-os-warning.jpg. Click file for picture if you don't understand)
You will press volume up. Then you will see this. (Image called 4-downloading.jpg . Click file for picture if you don't understand)
DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PHONE WHEN THIS SHOWS UP!
5. Open Odin v3.09. Click the AP Button.
(Image called Odin-3.09.jpg . Click file for picture if you don't understand)
6. Look for the firmware you downloaded and click open. You will have to wait a bit until the firmware is in Odin. You will know when its finished when you see the file name in the AP box.
7. Click START. You will have to wait as the process takes 5-10 minutes. The phone will reboot once or twice. then the welcome screen should pop up. and you are DONE. You have successful downloaded Android KitKat 4.4.2.
Enjoy!

Galaxy S6 Hard bricked need help

So i wanted to root my Galaxy S6 and found a tutorial.
My smartphone was 6.0.1 and the modellnumber was GM-G920F
I installed the SpaceX-Kernel_MM_RC2.1_G920F kernel on "Ap" in Odin,
after that the TWRP 3.0 also on "Ap" in odin.
I started it and the root was sucessfull but after i restarted i was stuck in bootloop.
Read somewhere online that i should wipe all data so it could recover to stock version ( i know i where stupid on that moment but i panicked), and i did it.
The only thing that was left on my handy is twrp, the normal down+home buttin odin mode doesn't work anymore.
Only option was to reboot into download mode in TWRP. I downloaded the 1,8 Gba stock md5 version for Galaxy S6 and tried to install it with odin. Sadly it stops every time after "hidden image" it fails.
I hope someone can help me.
(sry for bad english, isn't my native languange)

First install the s6-modem file with Odin.after install the vador Rom for the s6 using twrp install zip file vador Rom and u should be fine!!
Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

use smart switch an everything will be fine and flash supersu 2.71 next time to dont get bootloop

I connect my S6 to smart switch and it says its not compatible? Says Galaxy S6 not compatible.

[email protected] did u read my text? It says that i can't install the modem bc there is absolutly no firmware on the smartphone and it doesn't let me install one.
[email protected], i have the same problem like [email protected]
Its an unknown device for smart switch.

Power down your phone completely. Boot up in download mode (power + home + volume down). Open Smart Switch and click on "More" on the right upper side of the window, "Emergency software recovery and initialization". Click on the "Software update and initialization" tab. Insert the model of your phone, e.g. SM-G920F and click search. Now insert the S/N of your phone. You can see it on the bottom back of your phone. Click confirm and it will Download the latest stock firmware for your phone. From this point on it's self explanatory. You have to be patient because it's a long process.

HELP I bricked my G955F S8+ phone - Odin Fail (Device Info)

First of all: I posted the following text in the CAR HD ROM Thread, because it was the last ROM I was on and while restoring to an older version it happened. So it is somehow a double post, somehow not because I need help!
---
Hi!
I was on CARHDROM 6. I messed up the icons - I wanted the stock icons back - and did a restore to an older version, it was CARHDROM 4.
After restoring my phone isn't working anymore, there is only the startscreen (Galaxy S8+ - powered by android) and nothing more.
I can't go to recovery, the only thing I can do is going into the download modus.
The problem:
I tried to flash a 4 part Firmware with ODIN, once the G955FXXU1AQDD_Germany and the AP_G955FXXU1AQEB 4 part firmware.
Both end within a second with showing Odin Fail (Device Info)
Does someone if there is any solution? There is absolutely no way getting into recovery, an no way turning the device down. Even if you pres Vol+ and Vol- and power it starts new and has the Galaxy S8+ screen.
Only download modus (vol- / Bixby / Power) is working. I tried to flash different modems but until now nothing works.
Please help me if someone knows a solution, the last working Rom was the CAR HD ROM 6 - I dirty flashed it over the CAR HD ROM 4 and it worked without a problem.
Thanks for ANY help!

PLEASE DELETE... Everything is very good - someone told me which BL I had to flash and I am the happiest person right now!!! :good:
