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_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.

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)

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
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

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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
So a friend of mine managed to soft brick his S3 (i9300) , by pulling the battery while flashing something with odin, he's given it me having had some prior experience with S3's and rooting in general.
When trying to boot the S3 I get a screen like this :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now this isn't really a problem because I can still get into download mode , (
It says:
Factory mode
Product name : //blank
Current Binary : samsung official
System Status : Custom
The problem is when I try to flash stock 4.1.2 (everything) I get this error
Can't open serial COM port.
I'm using drivers downloaded from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...b-drivers-samsung-usb-drivers-mobile-t1655286
And I'm using these files in Odin ( 4.1.2) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6
I've tried this on two separate computers , on all available usb ports and swapped out the cable , taken the sim and memory card out, and tried several different versions of odin, all to no avail.
Any help would be appreciated on fixing the device.
Emmc chip is damaged/corrupt which is evidenced by the blank product name.
New motherboard required.
Odin recovery not working
hi
i am facing exact same problem. can anyone guide on the recovery procedure.
Hi there people ... i got an s3 this weekend which is not booting
( stuck at Gs3 logo)

}
... and i am trying to fix this and i have tried lots of stuff already believe me no luck yet.
Here is my situation
it already had a cwm on it which is 5.5.0.4... i tried updating it with philz touch but it stayed the same after reboot
This is download mode
I did a backup with this cwm and it managed to do a backup of the
boot.img
recovery.img
system.ext4.tar
but when doing the data, it stuck for a little while and rebooted without doing the data backup. same thing happens when i tried to wipe data. it basically would not read the data partition.
i open the system.ext4.tar and found out the previous version of android was I9300O2UELL2(jan2013), so i tried flashing same version on top via odin and odin says NAND write start and FAIL ...
Tried several pit files for gs3 16gb but repartitioning Failed all the time...
So how to proceed with this type problem ... is it the sds people talk about.. i have not tried the mmc boot repair yet because i want to know whats the problem first
Try rescue firmware, search general forum. Otherwise the emmc chip is corrupt/damaged.
Already did that
Hi mate i already tried that option .. i tried the 4.1.2 and 4.3 firmwares but it will not pass the NAND write .. it will say fail all the time
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?
