Take a look at My Android Solutions, link below about methods to solve boot loops, if that does not help you can flash a recue kit from My Android collections link below too

Are you using compatible Odin version? Which one did you use?

Did you check my thread?

Is Samsung Kies installed on your PC? You must kill its process in the Task manager before using Odin.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djoledtc:
I checked your thread , but there is a part where i have to download Stock ROM for my baseband width and firmware... I dont know what is my baseband ... On the back of the phone only writes model: GT-I9000 and SSN : I9000GSMH... How can i know what is my stock ROM.. I tried with FROYO but still bootloop and no recovery........ I Kill KIES processe when using Odin...... Odin version is 1.83
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
It is easy to find out, as the codes in the firmware/baseband code are regarding the regions. You can browse in www which is the proper regional code for your country.

Odin 1.83 is compatible, run is as administrator. The ROMs are out of 3 parts. Try to flash one of them as described (choosing proper files for PDA, CSC, Modem plus Pit 512 file) when all ready, run download mode , connect USB cable and start flashing as soon as Odin recognizes your phone. Don't leave it long in download mode waiting as the i9000 seems to have some kind of standby/sleep after 30sec or bit longer.

Remember what Odin displays in the leftmost fields during the flashing and post here (quote my text please / reply) if something goes wrong. Otherwise that proceeding should revive your phone.

It is really strange. Did you ever use ADB?

Try to get connection via ADB and make a logcat to see what the error is.

There are many threads about ADB / SDK
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
sorry about the delayed response. Actually it looks like your problem is identical to this thread so can you tell me did you use CM updater or did this problem crop up because you down grade from one CM version to another?

In any case lets try and fix the boot loader , flash the JVU bootloader , phone bootloader update ticked with the PIT file (repartition ticked) and see if it boots .

or at least you should be able to get into recovery mode with combo keys after this. IF it did not boot you can flash the JVU ROM again

I doubt this is due to corrupt internal SD card, but maybe its the final option to try in-order to get your phone booting

Today i got same problem, phone with Cyanogenmod in bootloop, on charger same bootloop. Solved with flashing stock ROM with Odin.

Maybe stupid question, but noone asked it, is your battery charged? Because in bootloop it does not charge the battery. And for flashing you need more then minimum. If you have multimeter measure voltage on battery, if it is 3,7V and less, flasshing will not be done, you need about 3,9V.

Did you update in SDK manager sources for your Android version? Check my thread here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2444308

You will find on the bottom of the OP attached screenshot with red mark where you have to check and download updates.

ADB drivers for Android versions 4.0+ could be not pre-installed and you have to do it manually. So for CM10.x ROMs you shouldn't use ADB (SDK manager) versions older than 1.0.31.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
ok, can you try flashing them all at one go, as mentioned below ( remove SIM CARD as well as EXT SD Card)

1) Select PIT > 512 PIT (If 'Re-Partition' is not checked under 'Option', check it)

2) Select Bootloader > i9000_xwjvu.tar ( do not tick update phone boot loader)

3. Select PDA > CODE_I9000XXJVU_CL851880_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.m d5

4. Select PHONE > MODEM_I9000XXJVU_REV_00_CL1092175.tar.md5

5. Select CSC > GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVU.tar.md5

EDIT: IF still not booting, flash the CWM semaphore kernel, see if get into CWM recovery

as for using external SD card 8GB or 16 GB will be better, you need a 2GB primary partition (acts as phone memory) and the rest of it as a second partition. (acts as internal SD card)

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
Invalid command argument would indicate you are using the wrong ROM ( in normal circumstances) so I need to ask, are you sure you have an i9000 and not any other variation like i9000B or M etc?

Now this problem or similar according to this member was solved by flashing various kernels repeatedly after flashing a fix recovery kernel like here, so no harm in trying that and was also addressed by stratosk here

I thing the fix recovery kernel is actually a devils kernel, so try using the devils resurrection rescue package from my earlier link, once you are certain your phone is indeed i9000

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
In 2e recovery, you should, wipe data & factory reset and also wipe cache, after that you can flash a CM 7 or 9 as update.zip (just rename the CM ROM as update.zip. The thing is you need to get ADB working, so that you can push it to your internal SD card. , there are many recovery tools, in My Android Collections,(link below) so you need to try one after the other which can achieve it or even flash directly from your PC

3e recovery will not have Install update feature , the alternative would be to use other flashing methods ( recovery tools in My Android collection to flash)

Run ADB codes

adb shell "dmesg | grep mmc0"

IF output contained something like

<3>[ 4.8024] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising MMC card if no error than SD card is good

Another way

adb shell "ls /dev/block"

this will list all block devices see if mmcblk0 is still good

Congratulations! :good: :fingers-crossed:

Well... it's matter of personal taste. I prefer 4.3 as it is faster, smoother and gives better battery life than any 4.2 based ROM. I use curently CyanogenMod 10.2 by dev pawitp (he develops now already CM11) with kernel Semaphore 3.3.0s and BigMem patch. That voids 720p video recording (it must be disabled) but the i9000 as fast and smooth as hell.

It would be nice if you would just click on "thanks" button leftbeyond the posts of xsenman and mine which you found to be useful. Not a big deal, it just raises our credibility a bit....

Lots of fun with your i9000. Post here any additional question if you heed further advice about the CM install or so. My advice is just to backup your IMEI /efs folder with terminal prompt now. It gets often lost with custom ROMs (not so much with the CM but with many others). It's also described in my thread how to.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
The SD card seems to be working, but its not able to work on rfs format ( reason why stock ROM cannot work) so two options

1) you can format everything back to rfs in CWM to test or

2) you use an external SD card to switch and work as the Internal SD card.

Above are just guesses based on the symptoms, does not necessarily mean your problems with sound will be resolved by doing this.

look at this CWM menu, it may vary in different versions of CWM

the problem could be due to

a) your format is wrong ( its in ext 2 or 4 format which samasung stock ROM's cannot use)

b) you have swapped the partition layout (meaning system has been changed with data) this happens when you use onenand lag fix

SONY XPERIA L ALL ROOTING METHODS INCLUDED​

For those who want to root your Sony XL & failed... I've some tips & tricks that may be useful :good:

At first,

the best one is the DoomLord rooting method,

1.Connect the phone in debugging mode via USB. To enable debugging mode, go to Settings => Development => Check "USB Debugging".

Wait for the drivers to install. Happens automatically on Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Download the zip file below and extract it.

After extracting, run "Run.bat". Admin rights usually not needed.

Follow On-Screen instructions.

Partial Root complete. If the exploit fails to run, try running again.

And then just run the batch file

Thats it

Rooted [Said that it is working only on JB 4.1.2]

And then,

Motochopper method,

even in this method, the same instructions are to be followed & the batch file is to be executed

It works perfectly. If it doesn't, just give it another try or else just check the other methods

I've attached some more methods & download links of them
