[Q] Galaxy S stuck at boot

Hallo,
I tried to install Darky's Rom and it failed.
After the install and reboot, my phone won't boot. It's stuck at the Galaxy S screen.
I can boot into download mode.
When I plug it in, the charging icon shows but isn't doing anything.
That's all I can tell...
Any ideas how I can fix this?

If you still have access to recoverymode 2e or clockworkmod, use this to flash a new ROM, for example a WIPE rom from http://romkitchen.org/.
If you can't get into recovery mode, use ODIN and download mode to flash a new rom. Use the search and stickies on how to do that .

Thanks...no recovery mode I'm afraid...
I'll try the romkitchen tip...

I'm afraid rom kitchen will ned recoverymode too.
Take a look at the SGS forums there is a guide somwhere on how to use odin to flash a new rom .
From there you should work towards recovery mode with clockworkmod and then you are basicly good to go for any rom.

Do I need adb for that?

You don't need adb to use odin, but you need working usb drivers.

Found a link that did the trick but wasn't allowed to post it since I'm a n00b...
Basically I installed Froyo again using odin...

This is the link DynomiteSoul used to fix his problem.

[Q]is my phone soft bricked or hard bricked?

i tried to install a custom rom but my phone doesnot boot neither it starts in download mode. please suggest what should i do

You could try to flash the stock rom for your phone again. Search Google if there is a stock rom ftf file and flash it with Flashtool
Another possibility is check if you have installed the correct kernel for your custom rom and install both again.

Could you give details about your installation process? A jig could fix your problem or in other words it could boot your phone in download mode.
If your recovery is available flash a custom ROM with it.

i installed the rom under normal conditions. for your info i have done this plenty of times but this time i m clueless. i have ordered for a jig but is there any other way to get my phone back?? please suggest.

Have you tried to flash it with 'Flashtool'?
Have you installed the correct Kernel for your custom rom?
Another solution might be to look in the internet for 'wotan server' - here you could try to restore your phone but it will cost a little.

u could also try odin to flash your original formware

Other than the jig is there any way to start the mobile in download mode??

You could try going into flash mode then flash a new kernal or by going into fastboot mode to flash a new custom ROM in Flashtool.
But I think this only works with Xperia Phones.

sorry, didn't have that in mind but you didn't tell us yet what phone you have and if you have used 'Flashtool' or 'Odin Flash tool' which is for Samsung phones, so it is very difficult for us to help you

You haven't tried everything. You have tried everything you know tho. If you had tried everything, there was no point asking.
First, was you on 5.1.1 and did you use CF-Autoroot?
Can you get into download mode and flash stock 5.1.1 from Sammobile?

Yes i tried everything i know
I was on 5.0.2 and tried cf autoroot
I downloaded 5.1.1 firmware but odin keeps saying FAIL.
I'm now downloading the same stock fw that was pre installed. Can i do something else?
Yes i can get into download mode

Well it's a soft brick then.
If I can't help you, someone else definitely know the answer.
Try follow this. This is a guide to flash a custom rom, but well, you just follow the bootloader and modem part and AFTER that you flash stock 5.1.1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60112855&postcount=3
You can't root on 5.1.1 tho. Not as of yet. Then you need a custom rom. But let's take that after your phone is fixed.
Do exactly as stated in the "guide". Flash modem + bootloader together and AFTERWARDS if it flash succesfully you flash 5.1.1 stock from Sammobile (you can't downgrade so 5.0.2 is not possible to flash anymore. It will fail.)
Just under the guide the bootloader and modem is for the difference models. Make sure to download the right one.

I will try it. I'm downloading the firmware right now (so slow)
Is there any way to turn off the phone? I hope it won0t suffer burn in effect because of the static image.

As long as you can get into download mode, it's just soft bricked. Try different PC's and USB ports. That have helped me more than once when getting stuck on Odin.
But what were you on when you tried to root? 5.0.2 or 5.1.1? Can't see why flashing stock firmware should fail. You sure you do everything right?

If you can acces Download, you can access recovery aswell. Hold down home button + volume down + power button until it starts a reboot. Once the screen go black, release all buttons and then fast volume up + homebutton + power button at the same time and there you go, you're in recovery.
The reason you think you can only get into download mode is because the same button combination that gets you into download mode restarts your phone.
So yes, try flash TWRP from Odin.

Well if you succesfully flash 5.1.1 your phone works again. No idea what's wrong with your Odin tho. Try delete all the Odin files and download it again (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934555153).
I THINK you're on 5.1.1 bootloader and modem as I got the same error as you. I flashed 5.1.1 bootloader and modem and could not start phone before 5.1.1 firmware was flashed.
You COULD try follow this again STEP FOR STEP when re-downloaded Odin (and deleted all the old Odin files). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60112855&postcount=3 REMEMBER to download the right version for your device. Like if you have SM-G920F it's JUST below the guide, else scroll further. Remember the bootloader and modem should be flashed at the SAME time and is not for the PDA slot. If it succesfully flash them, then try 5.1.1 stock firmware now.
But step for step the guide and be aware of those (DO NOT connect your phone before this step, otherwise it won't work!).
If you don't want to try that all over again (as I THINK you're on 5.1.1 bootloader and modem) you could try download download Odin again (as linked) and try different USB ports + PC's. If you try to flash bootloader + modem again, then try different PC's and USB ports too.

Wait wait guys... I just flashed a newer versione of twrp (
Why the hell i was flashing an older version??? ) and BOOM...it restarted and surprise...5.1.1 upgrade with my data and files (nothing touched and deleted).
I can't figure it out why root on 5.0.2 didn't work...
Finally i got it back working at least.
Thank you guys form you quick support and thank you Faspaiso for the help
Btw, root on 5.1.1 not already available?

Smells like reactivation lock.

Galaxy S6 probably softbricked? Ran out of things to try,

I've tried everything that i could find using google. Nothing has worked so far.
My friend has a S6 that was on 5.1.1 with root. It didnt received OTA updates so he tried to flash the new Nougat rom using ODIN. Alas the phone softbricked.
I can access download mode, but doesn't matter what firmware i try ODIN always end up failing. It's either sboot.bin, cm.bin so i think it has something to do with the bootloader? I'm not sure.
Tried to use SmartSwitch too but after it downloads the firmware it gives me an error and says to enter safe mode (????) so that's not working either.
Has anyone have an ideia of what to try next?
Thanks in advance.

Already tried. Touchscreen on TWRP is not responsive.

Do you using latest Odin 3.12.7 and newest Samsung USB Drivers and latest right firmware for your model (the best way to get it is SamFirm)?

Softbricked S6, Only Download mode
Hi,
I'm facing the same issue. Tried multiple firmware from sammobile using latest version of odin. I can access only download mode and when not in download it boots till the samsung logo and goes into bootloop. https://imgur.com/a/9bJnM

Touchscreen is not working on TWRP. I'm downloading a Custom ROM and will try to install it trough ADB using TWRP commands. Shot in the dark.

Ended up not working.
Tried PhilZ recovery and I got to flash Global Elite rom but it doesn't boot. Is PhilZ compatible with Nougat roms? What else can I try with this recovery.

Download right newest firmware for your model, use SamFirm to get it. Then use Odin 3.12.7 with newest Samsung USB Drivers to full-flash stock ROM. Set also "Factory Reset" in Odin then START. If Odin shows you 'pass' then everything comes good.

Still i'm facing the same issue. I'll try flashing it on another pc later today. Also, Should i change any odin setting while flashing ?? Like NAND erase or bootloader update etc

Not necessary, just "Factory Reset" and that's it. I don't know why Odin shows you "pass
" and your phone still shows "system status: custom". Looks like Odin didn't flashing correctly.

Its just not working... I have beendoing this all day... using Sp flash tool... I am now fed up.
My initial issue is that I chose option for 'Format all+Download' and it flashed well but I lost my IMEI... this should not be a problem I can re-write it using engineering mode Mobileuncle tools and other tools but they do not work on this rom... I think its because this is a moded rom so its not working, not even the engineering mode codes, I tried with fastboot, adb from computer... yes I can see my device but nothing else works.
Ok, let me just flash it all over with sp tool...all I get is the red bar, I dont get the Yellow one at all and even when i wait 5 minutes... nothing. I will keep trying then

Did you can try it with windows? Or try only Download and manually format it with the tab format.
