I solved thanks to a user from an italian forum, but if you still think to reflash your phone i will need that backup as well!

anyway don't rush ;) thanks again!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] strunkie:
Ok, then i wait a few days and reflash him before my holliday :)

Anytime i do this mode the phone just sits for ever with a black screen and yellow writing "dowloading...."

but nothing after that.

When i try the mode Home + Power Button it boots up the options to apply the update from the card, but the only thing that changed on the phone is superuser was installed. Still under the the OS 2.2.1

I have the same issue, with an unbranded version of Froyo.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bigeyes0x0:
Whoever having problem with your Gio shutdown/freeze randomly in your pocket, try one of these:

. Install Green Power free or similar (juice defender, this you need to buy at least Plus version).

. Change your Wifi sleep policy to Never

This sucks that Samsung didn't fixed this problem with our Gio in Gingerbread, I have this problem with both Android versions.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sarmad syed:
how can i overclock my gio????????????

:confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] keithnmikkii:
I am fed up with my Gio, and the USB issue not working yet, i am sending it back to the factory tonight.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] beeryourself:
which wifi policy do you refer to? the phone settings or juicedefender settings?

what's the USB issue???
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bigeyes0x0:
The phone setting. In my original post, I meant you can do either. The source of the problem seems to be a bug in system wifi sleep policy though. If it's set to anything not Never, the phone might crash in your pocket randomly when it does not have wifi connected.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] beeryourself:
the procedure you post doesn't work to me, but I noticed some things...

1. instead of samsungani in \system\bin I have samsungloop;

2. I have a samsungani.qmg file in \system\media

are you sure it's everything correct in the procedure you wrote?

I have disabled wifi sleep in phone settings since my first use of this phone and the problem still remain. now I'm expereincing random reboots then I disabled the managing policies by JuiceDefender. never rebooted or crashed, till now...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bigeyes0x0:
That's weird, if I disable wifi sleep, it's ok for me on both ROM versions. I guess YMMV applied.

I didn't with 2.2.1 but with 2.3.3 I did get a crash with Juice Defender 3.5.8beta. Since then I've been using nothing not Green Power or Juice Defender because the 2.3.3 ROM is much more power efficient anyway.

And anyone knows anything about the trojan/malware problem stated on samfirmware forum of our gingerbread update (sorry I can't post link yet)? Someone more knowledgeable about android, please check. As for me, I didn't notice anything weird yet as of now.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] keithnmikkii:
Well since the day i had it, any computer that i connect it to, "USB DEVICE IS NOT RECOGNIZED"

so it is in the mail now, nothing i can try that i have not already. Tried all manor of drivers, settings, debugging and troubleshooting using SDK. Odin, Superone click, nothing seemed to work. So now it is on the way back and we will see if they replace the faulty device.

It uses different geotime from desktop version and this screw up the whole chat putting all messages received before (or after) sent (due to higher or lower geotime)...

I am a complete noob of the flashing process, so what do I need to do to install custom ROMs on the Gio?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Wololoooo:
Hi, i'm new to android, today y root my phone and flash it with 2.3.3 gingerbread, but, now i'm stuck with a bootloop, i can't enter in recovery mode, only download mode, y re-flash my gio with a lot of roms, stock roms, modify roms, etc, they did not work, sorry for my question, i know a lot of people ask the same thing, i try fastboot, adb, nothing work, only download mode, dload and ram dump, is there any hope for my galaxy gio? :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] strunkie:
Hi dude,

What you can try is the follow thing.

Open Odin select debug only search for formatting or re-partition (you can also sellect all)

Wait press start and wait a few seconds, after do this you get this screen:

reflash to stock rom or another rom and you Gio will work
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Wololoooo:
Thanks, what version of odin should i use?

I don't see a "re-partition option" only pda-format and when i select that, odin shut down when i press start

Setup connection...

odin mode.. check plcatform verification

verifyplatform: v0,p0,r0

start!!

format download

---Odin exit

Any ideas? i'm using S5660 Gio OPS :)

----Edit

Odin exit when i select format pda, my phone still bootloop, but, i show the same image that you post, but with a bootloop. First, samsung logo, then, phone icon with the "!" and a computer, then reboot, samsung logo, etc, etc, etc :P
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] strunkie:
Go to download mode and reflash.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Wololoooo:
Hi! Well, i did that and.. nop, still bootloop with no recovery, is there any way to restore partition or format pda without odin?

Or, to "re-flash" recovery?

:D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] strunkie:
Haha its realy strange :P never see this :) you can reflash to stock and bring him back to a service pont ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Wololoooo:
Hahaha, i know, it's wierd, well, i alredy reflash to stock, and.. well nothing happen, i use a lot of "stock rom" for the gio, european roms, and still the same result, when odin restart the device, this, enter in a bootloop.

Well... thanks for your help mate!

Yea, my Gio is in boot loop mode also. No recovery mode... it now says RAMDUMP mode, and if i holld -/+ power and home ill get Emergency mode. The button down gives me still download mode and odin still sees the phone.

I tryed old and new stock fw and some customs roms like Gio_Pro... But still no luck. Odin seems to flash the phone then it waits for a reboot but then it get stuck so it cant finish. So guess i have a bricked phone?

Is there any way to reformat the phone memort? Or anything i can set in debug mode to get it working again?

Hope someone can give some help, because due to the gio not being that populair i cant find any good info on how to do a reformat instal.

i use the latest Odin V4.42 and this is what it gives me:
