[Q] [i9003] Bootloop after flashing

Hello everyone!
I had some stability issues on my Samsung GT-I9003, so I flashed it . And, as the title says it, I'm stuck in a bootloop. I've tried 3 or 4 flashings with different packages. Some where "One packages", with one unique PDA, or I tried the XXKPE with everything. And I'm lost. I never get past the first boot screen.
[EDIT]
I found a way to boot it, but the touchscreen isn't working, so I'm now stuck on the language selection page...
Is it my ROM who doesn't fit?
[/EDIT]
Thanks!
Before going to download mode try wiping everything, then flash xxkpe TWICE then wipe again. Make sure you flash it correctly. And odin shows PASS. Try flashing the latona.pit included in xxkpe.
Press thanks if it helped..
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA
Thanks for the answer!
Problem is it didn't work!
I got a little deeper in the problem. In order to boot to android, I need to flash the bagaria root file. It contains the normalboot image. So I assume that the boot is corrupted. I'd add that after the rooting, the android recovery boots and wipes everything, but he says that the CSC wasn't installed, because "[...]/stl11" is not there. Is it the .pit?
I'm lost, again...
Thanks a lot for your help!

so weird. Where did you download your xxkpe. Try here

then follow the guide here

I think you just fail a step on flashing a rom.
---------- Post added at 09:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 PM ----------
Flashing bagaria root is done after flashing a stock rom for it to be rooted. You failed to put CSC file in odin maybe. Follow the guide above perfectly then everything will be fine.
You start the procedure on Step 3 if your done downloading XXKPE here

/stl11 is the /cache partition.
look like you fail to flash pit file, or u flash "one package .tar file" with partition ticked in odin.
see below for the samsung recommend setup
flash pit file with all the firmware one short.
if you flash from Froyo to GB, i recommend to flash the bootloader update.
however, flash on you own risk.

Hi, I am facing the same issue with a GT-I9003 as jonasdu91. I tried all the solutions mentioned above, tried all sort of firmwares. The only time the phone responded was when I flashed the bagaria file. That too ended up with a non-responsive touchscreen at the language selection screen.
Could anyone suggest what more could I do to get the phone to upgrade?

How do I flash other stock rom after that? I've tried to flash XXLE4 rom, and received boot error and unmounted FS
Hello everyone, an acquaintance of mine, had initially given his Galaxy SL device to a friend of his, asking him, to 'update' the software on the device. The device had come with Android 2.2.1, pre-installed on it (PDA: I9003DDKB2; PHONE: I9003DDKA5; CSC: I9003ODDKA6).
Apparently, my acquaintance's friend flashed the I9003DDMF1 stock Gingerbread firmware via PC ODIN, and after my acquaintance gave me the device, I noticed, it did not boot to a home screen. It would boot loop at the Samsung boot animation.
The device boots into Download Mode, but does not get into the stock Recovery Mode. So, I attempted numerous remedial procedures. I used PC ODIN3 v1.85 for all flashing instances.
Keeping Misledz's guide, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133787, as a reference, I flashed the I9003XXKPE firmware package, followed by the I9003XXKPQ_I9003SERKPQ_SER firmware.
After PC ODIN gave a PASS for the I9003XXKPE firmware package flashing instance, the device rebooted, and I observed a process, looking like the stock Recovery Mode, continuing on the device. There were a couple of strings, displayed in red colour. The device rebooted again to the Samsung logo, and I had to pull the battery out, to continue with the I9003XXKPQ_I9003SERKPQ_SER firmware flashing instance. After PC ODIN displayed the PASS sign and the device rebooted, I unplugged the USB cable, but the boot loop at Samsung boot animation persisted.
Since the above mentioned procedure did not solve the boot loop issue, I decided to take the device back to a stock Froyo firmware, and if successful, reattempt to 'update' the device to stock Gingerbread (2.3.6), by following Misledz's guide. I flashed the I9003_XXKB1 stock Froyo firmware, but this time, the device would not go beyond the Samsung logo.
As a momentary last attempt, before seeking help here, I flashed the I9003ZCKC1 firmware package, but yet, the device does not go beyond the Samsung logo.
All the flashing instances completed successfully on PC ODIN.
Is it possible to revive the device, such that it boots to a home screen and is functional again? I desperately need help.

I believe, the 5 files contained within the I9003XXKPE_Odin3_1.8.5.zip package, would correspond to the options available in PC ODIN3 v1.85, as follows -

xumix, I flashed the I9003XXKPE_Odin3_1.8.5.zip firmware package using PC ODIN3 v1.85, but to no avail. The boot loop on the Samsung boot animation continues to persist.
EDIT
I have noticed there is a u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit, contained within the Odin3-v1.85 folder. What is this, PIT file for?
I re-flashed the I9003XXKPE_Odin3_1.8.5.zip firmware package using PC ODIN3 v1.85, and the process completed successfully. But, since the boot loop at the Samsung boot animation persisted, I pulled the battery out, and booted into Recovery Mode, not once, but on two separate instances. I was able to perform a wipe data/factory reset, on the second instance. I also performed a wipe cache partition and rebooted the device. But, the boot loop issue still continues.
I have attached images of both instances, I clicked using another device, to this post.
If dont mind. Try my step below.
In download mode
Flash pit file alone. Make sure repartition is ticked.
Phone will black screen, you pull out battery and put back.
Download mode again. Flash xxkpe without pit file.
BTW, you error show properly is emmc chip broken, hope it is not.

chongns, I followed your stepwise suggestions, to the word, but unfortunately, the boot loop issue still persists. One distinct error under the stock recovery is, E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p3. Am I correct to believe this error strongly indicates, or rather confirms, the internal SD is damaged?
Also, what are the possible causes (physical, and or, logical) that would damage the internal SD? Is it worth sending the device to an authorised Samsung service centre, for an appropriate repair process?

Help installing recovery

I'm having problems. I flashed the img from the twrp website using flashify and now the phone is stuck on the screen with the android saying downloading. in red it says "could not do normal boot" and under it it says "ODIN mode".
Anybody know what I should do next to either get twrp installed or get the stock recovery back on the phone? I'm not real familiar with ODIN or samsung phones. This is my first non HTC phone.
Thanks
edit: I flashed the nd2 rom through odin and I can use my phone again. Now I just have to figure out how to properly install a custom recovery
Make sure you have the drivers installed that's why I think Odin is not recognizing. You should see a Com port in odin. Doesn't matter what Com just as long as it shows. At this point I think odin is your only option. I believe you could odin nd2 and that would restore your stock recovery but I would just odin twrp then see if it boots

Follow the instructions from this post. Since you are soft bricked at the moment, you'll need to start at step 4. If you have an extSD in your phone, you might want to pull it until after you're up and running because the "Android" folder from Kitkat needs to be deleted and rebuilt for Lollipop.

Are you using the wrong terminology? You have to use Odin and a PC to install the .tar. Also, the first boot into Lollipop can take about 20 minutes. You have to be patient. I see you posting in different threads and you seem to be digging deeper into a hole.
Are you using Odin and starting by downloading (to PC) the file in step #4? Then follow the remaining steps "exactly". Re-read those instructions and if you not already downloaded the needed files, do that first.

Try this: Do a battery pull, then put the phone in Download mode, hook up to PC and then open Odin and then Odin custom recovery, either twrp or Philz. Uncheck auto reboot in odin and once it passes, pull the battery, unplug and boot into recovery. Also, you might update Odin, there's a link to Odin 3.10.0 in my post. Let's see if we can get that far and go from there.

Which recovery tar did you Odin? You pulled the battery after Odin said PASS, then unplugged the phone, put battery back in and immediately tried to get into recovery? If so, I'm stumped.

I saw your post count, I knew you knew what you're doing, just wanted to double check everything. Sorry, I'm out of ideas. I did ask @tdunham to take a look at this thread, if he has some other ideas, but he's offline right now. Hopefully he'll check in later.
What about flashing back to an older version of android? Full tar flash.
---------- Post added at 12:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 AM ----------
Like ne5, and nothing else, just see if you can get stock to boot, no messing around trying to flash recovery.
This is RWillco12's NE5 stock.. Have the phone in download mode and run the .exe
Thanks TD.

I tryied ni3 already
but as far as i know you cant downgrade the bootloader.
if i could flash just the bootloader for ota6 maybe that would help.
i will try downloading ne5 now but my last rom was running a nkd modem.
im going to try and flash G900P_NKD_FullRestore.tar in odin if that dont work ill try ne5
and will report back shortly.
well nkd full restore boots up to
unknowen error!
wait..
done!
udc start.
power reset or
unknown
upload mode.
this is the way i got it back from retech after they replaced my bezel and digitlizer and screen
i never had an issue with anything software wize before that.
Have you tried flashing the phone without any sim cards inserted including the sprint card? You are flashing from a powered off state right? You know it wont work unless phone is powered off before going into download mode.
As a last resort attached is the pit file for the 16gb G900P. Unzip and put it into the pit section of odin and flash the stock firmware again. It will repartition the entire phone when it flashes the stock image.

Did you fixed it ?
Because i didnt fixed !
but i manage to get phone working
i just flashed oficial MM then i flashed bootloopfix(arter97 beta MM)
Then i made factory reset cach wipe then flashed newsboot (arter97 MM beta)
Then phone started to boot to dektop with some errors and i put hacker kernel s6 MM .zip
again flashed oldsboot (BL) with TWRP (AP) and i booted to TWRP recovery flashed hacker kernel and i made factory reset cach wipe then i flashed bootloopfix (BL) and stockrecovery (AP) and i did factory reset wipe cach and i managed to go inside Official MM with hacker kernel with no errors but the touchwiz sometimes fail but it comes right away....after this i downgraded to arter 5.1.1 back to note ROM i just wait to arter release MM back note ROM i dont like MM s6 i like note ported ROM..
first off all > sorry about my bad english
you need to install old boot lp then instal twrp lp and flash SuperSU-root-BETA-v2.66
then flash new boot mm
that is all
its work for me
How can i do that if i flashed stock and i have no files inside phone and am stuck in recoverymode ? can you give us links to the files we need ?
and did you have this same problem ?
thanks

I have the same problem Damaged section EFS. The solution - restore the backup EFS OR use custom kernel.

Here is: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ojvbm3o4oqhdiye/Kernel_G925F_Sforum.tar?dl=0
Install the zip with odin 3.10.7, like ap file( video tutorial) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSNbHvJdTk4. Then reboot and celphone start working. This change your kernel and boot, but you can flash the original kernel ( i have if you needed). If you want root check this video https://youtu.be/0FEfJ4DWVcY

I had the same problem as the OP, and I flashed this kernel after flashing some stock roms, but it still doesn't work for me. When booting up, the phone no long gets stuck in the stock recovery but gets stuck in the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge logo with the red tiny words on the top-left saying KERNEL IS NOT SEANROID ENFORCING.
Is this happening because I flashed a pit file the first time and maybe accidentally erased my EFS? I have made some backups using TWRP and an EFS BACKUP app before, but I have no idea how to restore those files now as I cant get into my phone.
Would really appreciate any kind of help.
In addition, I found that I don't seem to be able to flash a custom recovery like TWRP onto my device, at least I cannot get into it after odin says Pass when flashing.
I'm trying to use ADB but it seems the device isn't found.

I finally did it myself haha.
It turned out to be pretty simple; just in case someone is in my shoes in the future, here's what I did:
Flash a stock rom using Odin 10.7.
(IMPORTANT) Do not let it boot up til it says drk fail, hold down the vol down, power, and home button to get back into the Download mode.
Flash PhilZ recovery using Odin 10.7. arter97 . com /browse/exynos7420/recovery/twrp/g925fi/
Once it's done, hold vol up, power, and home button to get back into the Recovery mode immediately.
I'd personally do a wipe to make sure nothing goes wrong, then backup the EFS and other partitions while I'm at it.
Then choose Reboot to go back into the Download mode.
Now flash CF-Auto-Roots using the attached Odin. forum.xda-developers . com /galaxy-s6/orig-development/cf-auto-root-t3056630
Let it do the installation on the phone. It will reboot a few times I think, and hopefully when it says Pass, the LED indicator starts glowing. Then it should be all good.

can you give the link for the above mention apps?

G930F - flashed wrong recovery. Have I got any chances?

Hi guys,
I have flashed SD recovery over Exynos (idiot - I know!)
Have I got any chances to recover the device?
I have got g930f.
Bootloops at Samsung Galaxy S7 logo.
Will boot to download mode, visible in odin but upon flashing anything it will immediately restart and odin will FAIL.
Anything to revive this brick?
Thanks!

Hi mate
Probably yes....
You could try to reflash the correct recovery first.....
Custom like TWRP
Check here
Or the original one
Check here
Worse case scenario flash a stock rom (odin) Use all 4 files AP, BL, CP and home_csc to try to save your data ( has to be the same as you have in your phone now) or CSC this will give you a clean installation
Check here

Thank you,
For whatever reason - donwload mode is somehow corrupted. As soon as I'm starting to flash anything it fails and restarts the phone...
Any other options I could possibly have?
Thanks!

What error do you get in Odin, check the logs.
Did you try flashing from another PC
re install driver
Un install Kies or smart swicth
Different USB cable
What odin version are you using

Nope, I haven't tried different pc/cable as the very same pc was ok to flash wrong recovery 5min earlier...
I don't have kies installed, I just had samsung drivers which were always working for me.
I am 100% positive its not pc fault just me being an idiot...
I am using odin 3.12
Thank you

We are all idiots at one point or another
Just want to point out different reason why odin may fail...
See what error do you get when flashing with Odin...and what files are you using when it fails to flash

I can't check it right now ( I'm at work) but it basically gives me fail on red backdrop. Can't remember what it says in the log, but definitely says Success: 0/ fail: 1
Last file I tried to flash was whole system rom. Just before that, I tried to flash TWRP for s7 exynos - the correct one but it failed. And, of course, it all started with flashing incorrect twrp which went through perfectly :/
Thanks

When you get home, just try installing "Samsung Smart Switch" (it's no longer Kies) (http://www.samsung.com/sg/support/smartswitch/Smart_Switch_pc_setup.zip)
I understand that you already have drivers on your PC, but the Samsung Smart Switch might come with some updated drivers for your Samsung S7, which might change the scenario. Installing that, plus using another version of Odin (run it as Admin). I used this one just today. (http://dl.sammobile.com/Odin3-v3.11.1.zip)
If the flashing the recovery still fails, try flashing Stock rom under AP like suggested earlier. If that still fails.
Use Samsung Smart Switch's "Emergency recovery" but do the Initialization (2nd tab) by inputting your Phone model and let Smart Switch download the official firmware from Samsung's servers.
This must be done while your phone is in Download mode, so make sure you have enough juice to wait out the download process.
Good luck!
