[Q] Downgrade version - Problem - Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500

Hi,
I have tested CyanogenMod 7 and MAD ROM on my I5500L [Brazil], and it's works. But, I want to downgrade my phone to original version [Android 2.1].
When I flash with the pack, the phone reboot and show "Samsung" on display forever.
I have test with the zOdin for Galaxy S, but don't work .
Have solution?
Thanks a lot

I faced the same problem.. downgrading 2.1 from cyanogen !
you can flash any froyo rom before downgrade to 2.1 directly
I got success..

Your problem is that the /data partition is still formatted to EXT4, but the stock ROMs can only recognise the Samsung RFS format.
Flash this file with Odin as a One Package (no other special options): http://www.multiupload.com/OW3LQG8PZB
That will flash an empty RFS data partition to the phone, which will fix your problem.

Thanks man! It's works perfectly.

I had flashed my galaxy 5 i5500 to CyanogenMod 7.1 (aka 2.3.5) but i need to downgrade it to 2.2 or 2.1.
I had been read some guide saying that need to flash the downgrade.tar file using odin. i already done it but my phone reboot automatically and repeating the welcome page(as shown)

i though i had done the step for downgrade.tar, then i flash it again with the 2.2 firmware, but i still stuck at the odin,as picture show:
So now what can i do?can some body help?please,it's urgentT.T

You need to format data,system,cache, and dalvik cache before downgrading. Use odin to get you in clockwork and do the above then reboot you do have a back up of your phone just in case dont you..

Maybe this thread can help? :

Also, i had the same issue with odin getting stuck and it was because my drivers were 'stuck'. I had to un-install kies, install kies, reboot computer and then re-start odin. If you try that, be sure to keep your phone in download mode.
hope this helps

S3 with No Boot !!!

hi
Yesterday i bought a galaxy s3 and i rooted the device perfectly and the s3 is awsome.
i tried to chenge the font called robot with root explorer and i did it. But, i rebooted the s3 and it is stuck by the samsung logo !!!!
i tried to wipe cache and dalvik and the last data wipe and factory reset and the device tells me the reset is successfully done but till now is stuck in logo screen!!!! ( i think the device is doing some check process or something).
i made a backup for the font file by renaming it.
--- How can i delete the font and restore the old ? it needs to explore the device file remotely to do that
CAN ANYONE HELP?

download this rom
put it on your external micro sd
go to recovery flash update from sd
and install this rom

thank you for fast reply.
i am only afraid to lose my language support and menus (arabic).you know the support of RTL languages is less than other languages.
but the rom you linked me to is tempting and i will give a shot and i will see.
thank you again for the help
Can someone test for me

[SOLVED] S5839i / Odin fails to write / not rooted / loop boot

EDIT : SOLVED USING CORRECT ROM FILES AND/OR CORRECT ODIN VERSION, TUTORIAL (IN FRENCH BUT WORKING !!!!) HERE : http://www.phonandroid.com/forum/tutoriel-remise-a-propre-de-son-ace-s5839i-t60501.html
Hello there,
My co-worker has a not rooted Galaxy Ace GT-S5839i which had a loop boot problem.
I first tried to wipe cache data but had an error when trying to reboot (something like "E:can't mount /data"), same occurs after wipe + factory reset.
I tried to install official rom ( S5839iXXMC1_S5839iXEFMD1_S5839iXXMC1_HOME.tar.md5 ) with Odin, and whatever the Odin version i try (tried few of them, 1.85 as i read it is better for gingerbread, also tried few 3.x version including latest version) i get a write failure on Odin, see following screenshot :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have to say that i have installed Kies + usb drivers, then rebooted computer and then killed Kies process.
I also tried on another usb bracket/plug and with 2 different wires.
Also tried Odin Multi Downloader but it crashes when analysing file.
Sadly, my co-worker can't afford a new smartphone, please someone help me.
Regards.

Samsung Galaxy S8 G950F Bricked! Help

Hi, i repair phones for 5 years today i bought a Samsung Galaxy S8 G950F with software problems.
The owner told me that he has rooted the phone but simcards only works with roaming on. (The phone was fully working in this state)
So i installed the newest firmware on the S8 with Odin but the phone has bricked.....
Every install is going well with odin but then on the phone i got a blue screen and it is installing the firmware till 32% then it says erasing, reboots and stuck on Samsung logo..... nothing is helping i installed 5 different firmware versions but no succes, PIT file installed but again no succes.
In the recovery menu i see this on the bottom looks like a problem but maby someone has a solution for this?

}
I got some good results with no-verity-opt-encrypt !
Installed TWRP and installed that file now it is booting up again so for the next one who got this problem just try it and maby you will succeed.
Now installing and going to check if i manage it to install official rom without TWRP
I manage to install other firware for G950F but at device info it still says G950FD (D for dual sim......) my pc shows it as normal F version (Single sim)
How can i fix this?
