[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zerohhorez:
Hi guys, i gonna tell you about how my i9001 was stuck in a bootloop. Maybe you could help me. I'm sick of it.

Cause: I installed cm10 and cwm5 or 6 as recovery and upgrade my device using Ota Updater. When I restarted my i9001, it got stuck in a bootloop.

What my i9001 can display: It can access to rampdump mode and download mode. In case I try to turn on my i9001 or access to recovery mode the Samsung logo/word is shown twice and stops showing anything else. It often gets stuck showing the typical grey battery flat (with a loading stopped) and the black screen alternately. This is caused when I a disconnect the USB cable from my computer/laptop.

Attempts: i've tried everything except for the right solution. Lots of forum threads and nothing works for me. I've tried:

1.- Boot_loader for device boot.

2.- I've flashed an stock rom: XXKQP, and 2 more: BVKPC y XXKQ1. Each one are official.

3.- And then recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4 and -6.0.1.2.

4.- I've tried, then, flashing feamodrecovery 1.2.

5.- Nothing works for me.

I've been using Odin 4.43. AriesVE in OPS section and when flashing these roms: one package. For recovery packages: one package and pda (I tried these two options).

I can't reach at recovery mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Greetings!

stepie22, thank you for your help. Nothing worked for me.

First link: another typical manual for installing a stock rom via Odin. During the process my device powered off. It was supposed to reboot. After the process ended, i disconnected it from PC and its screen showed a grey empty battery (with a loading in the middle) and word "Samsung" alternatively.

Second link: this was the solution for my first brick. Then, my device showed this yellow triangle. This second time is annoying me. I haven't found any solution to change, at least, the behaviour of my device. :rolleyes:

Any other different solution? Thnks guys.

Maybe your device got the eMMC Bug?

Normally your Device would be hardbricked if you "over" flashed.

If nothing works out try this:

Have a look in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2224029

Download CWM Recovery 6.0.2.8 ODIN Package and flash it in "Download Mode" the regular way (AriesVE.ops and onepackage).

Then maybe you are able to enter Recovery Mode again...

This might be not your problem, but you could give it a try:

Some people had issues with rebooting in recovery, so there is a fix in this post

These themes are for any device with 480x800 resolution. I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 T989; this is what I've tested all the themes on but again should work with all devices of that resolution.

How to Install:

Open your TWRP folder

Create a new folder inside of that

Rename new folder to theme

Download and place in theme folder

Rename to ui

TWRP 2.4 Themes

These do work for 2.5 but you don't see the option to switch memories and other changes TWRP has made.

DL link is after the name of theme.

Assassin's Creed http://www.mediafire.com/download/rmrnq184wb6s79h/Assassins_Creed.zip

Gears of War http://www.mediafire.com/download/mjxuw77ue7nz33z/Gears_of_War.zip

TWRP 2.5 Themes

Batman http://www.mediafire.com/download/s9y9a3dsja736tt/Batman.zip

I have two sound files to download with this theme as well. One is simply I'm batman and the other is the Joke saying Why so serious then laughs.

The Last of Us http://www.mediafire.com/download/lr13l1setvlr3i2/The_Last_of_Us.zip

In the concept stage as of now; wanted to release it to see what you think. I will be updating this at any given time.

Assassin's Creed2.5 http://www.mediafire.com/download/rfxb3zc3mr40c7v/Assassins_Creed2.5.zip

How to apply sound file

I use Root Explorer but you can use the one that best suits you.

After downloading the file navigate to it's location copy the one you want to use as the power on sound then go to /system/media/audio/ui and paste.

Look for the file you just pasted in that location then rename it to PowerOn and set permissions. The steps for the power off sound is the same but rename it PowerOff.

DON'T DELETE THE FILE EXTENSION!!!

I'm Batman http://www.mediafire.com/download/3oq4dsg4ij7wb0g/I'm_Batman.ogg

The Joker http://www.mediafire.com/download/x77q5znqty79xw2/The_Joker.ogg

This is just what I do so I know the name of the theme I want to use; I place all themes in the theme folder then when I want to use one I make a copy then paste it in theme folder. Rename copy to ui reboot into recovery. In recovery you can go into settings and select Simulate actions for theme testing. This allows you to test the theme completely without any of the actions permanently sticking. Read here for exact quoit http://www.teamw.in/twrp2-theme-guide. I do this so I always have the name of the theme I want to use and I still have the original. You don't have to do it this way; this is just some advice.

Rikaline Bluetooth GPS for £137 - yep not a wire in site.

Tom Tom software £105 from Tom Tom

and heres what I learnt here to make it work!

Towa's awesome application to configure the bluetooth.

Tom Tom upgrade from their site to GPS 2.09 and Navigator 2.24

The code to enter the Rikaline (1234)

Everything works awesomely, a fully mobile solution for under £400 with PDA.

I hope that helps a few of the newcomers and again - THANK YOU all for your help.

[HTC Desire S] h-fox:
The phone in question is HTC Desire S. I've noticed a strange hand symbol while using a main camera. It doesn't show up when I want to take an upclose shot (most of the time), but it starts blinking (irregular intervals) when start moving the phone or I try to take a shot in the distance. I don't know if it has anything to do with it, but this phone has some issues with autofocus (works fine in upclOse shots, but completely misses in distance).

So, the question is, what does that hand symbol mean? Is it a stabilization or something? Here is the link of image.

Image stabilization working, or it's telling you to hold your phone still.

Im not sure, it''s just idea. Because when you put phone on table, so it doesn't move, it stops blinking.:good:

On cameras (dedicated hardware, not software or webcams) this symbol warns that shot quality is going to suffer from camera instability. Generally you should see it when taking photos in low light environements (eg. early evening or indoors with no electric light).

I would go with the extended battery. The power pack only adds about 50 percent of life and plus you have to have it attached to the phone all the time.

But now T-mobile added LTE in a few markets. I drove through one and suddenly got no data access. This is with "preferred network mode" set to LTE/WCDMA.
