[Q] Black screen after boot? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an i9000m which I had flashed to Froyo JPO with Odin, then installed Darky's ROM v 4.0. I had been using this for a while with no problem but a couple days ago it shut itself off for apparently no reason and when i tried to turn it on it would just get to the Galaxy S startup screen and then continuously restart and never fully boot. I could still get into download mode so I flashed back to the stock eclair JH2 firmware, but when I tried to turn the phone on, it would go through the normal boot sequence, but then i would be stuck at a black screen, with the bottom two buttons lighting up. I played around with flashing various different firmware versions, but it didnt help. After searching the forums it looks like it might be a problem with the internal SD card, but I'd like some other opinions/advice. Could anybody help me get my phone functioning again?

I'm having the exact same problem since today. It started out of nowhere; one moment the phone is working fine, the next its rebooting and it gets stuck...
Anyone got a solution besides a factory reset?

[Q] ROM flashing keeps failing need help..

EDIT: Can be closed, fixed it by going into recovery and wiping data/cache, never had to do that before in other flashes so didn't know it was needed
Hi guys,
first of all I'm not another first time flasher, I already succesfully put 4 other roms on my galaxy s but now I don't know what to do..
I came from jm5 and wanted to upgrade to jm8 today so I back upped everything and started the process, I thought I'd best follow richthoven's instructions so I first flashed the pit file + repartition, and then after pass, removed battery, back to download mode and put pda,modem,csc etc like always and started flashing.
Now my problem is from what I remember after the final reboot before odin sais pass the s logo dissapears and the phone boots into touchwiz, but now after the s logo dissappeared, my screen just stays black and after a minute or two odin sais passed, but there's nothing on my screen, and even after disconnecting and removing battery and try to boot it hangs on the s logo for a few minutes then a black screen with the backlight buttons highlighted.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated!
PS: I already tried the flashing procedure twice, same result

[Q] Phone stalls after boot video and vibrates occasionally

I'm in desperate need of help. I tried using RyanZA's OCLF from the market as it's supposedly very safe and it seemed to be going fine and during the installation (?) process the phone rebooted and after the boot video it goes black and just vibrates occasionally.
I can get into the 3e recovery mode thing.
Samsung Galaxy S on Android 2.2 (Optus)
I'm desperate because I do rely on this phone a lot (yes, silly me for messing with) and I do have a backup with Titanium. Would a data/factory reset help?
mine is also having the same problem after i upgraded to FROYO.
it Shows black screen and vibrates.

Galaxy S stuck at logo. ( Logo flashes on and Off)

Hi guys, I have researched for quite a while not and I have found nothing that suits my situation.
I have flashed with multiple roms to no avail using ODIN. Everything appears to work fine, the rom uploads to the phone correctly, the phone reboots and comes to the Galaxy S logo and quickly resets and keeps on cycling.
Im not sure what I can do.
Any help appreciated, thanks.
try to flash a firmware that contains 3 files + pit.
if you cannot find one, try darkys new 9.2 resurrection. its only 1.tar file but you can use pit and re partition.... and it contains dbdata which should fix your problem
stuck on either the battery logo or the at&t screen

[Q] stuck at AT&A after flashed clean rom with odin, weird!!!

Hello,
I have weird problem with my Samsung captivate.
I install a new rom on my device and it work well for several hours buy than it suddenly stop to work.
After a reset my device get stuck on the at&t screen.
I entered the download mode and flashed clean rom with odin (and check the Master Clear option).
But it still get stuck on the at&t screen.
Is this can be hardware problem?
Is there any way to get the log file from the boot to find out what is the problem?

update of my latest post: stuck at bootscreen

situation: was playing on galaxy note when battery died,
after battery died i tried to charge my phone and the batterylogo displayed but nothing happened.
so i tried to start up the phone and it got stuck at the bootscreen and after 10-15 seconds the screen dies and shows the bootscreen again,
and it goes on like that.
well then i tried flashing other roms to it and didn't succeed so now when i start up phone i get the "phone-----(!)--------computer" screen.
i still can go into download mode but no recovery mode.
so i tried flashing stock GB roms/ ICS roms but odin always get stuck at "zImage"
so can anyone help me with this issue?
the strange thing is i was running on official ICS(4.0.3) when this happened and never flashed my phone before that
I think you are affected with emmc bug

Just flash gb rom in PC ODIN only and after automatically reboot if still stuck just go to recovery and wipe data and cache.
If you stuck in pc odin then it is a brick bug.
Try flashing notecore or speedmod kernel see if it wnet thru. If it does then try to see if you can access the recovery and wipe cache - dalvik or even data. If not try flashing again GB rom (preferred KJ11 by dr ketan) then update to ICS or you can try again ICS then root using safe kernel.
well first i tried to install stock GB rom open europe version, then tried stock ICS but nothing helped
So it might be emmc brick bug
Follow the guide i said in my previous post
You will surely get your phone back to work but it costs you 3gb of internal memory
But dont worry,after you get your phone working,clear your binary count
Then go to samsung service center and they will replace your motherboard under warrenty
I got the same problem in the past and got it solved in the same way
Hope it works for you too
