That simply sounds like a boot loop, were you trying to flash a JB rom?
If it is a boot loop, pull the battery, remove the SD Card, load the stock stock image from "here" onto the SD card and then boot into recovery (volume down and power at the same time), do all the appropriate wipes (cache/dalvick cache/possibly remove user data wipe), then flash the Stock image. At this point you should at least be able to get into download mode (vol + and - and power) after the reboot.
Good Luck!!

[Q] galaxy s stuck on galaxy s logo screen

After trying CM7 on my Galaxy S I decided to go back to the backup the I have made for my stock 2.2.1 using Clockwork mod. I couldn't make a full restore so I restored the data and system using advanced restore option. I was getting an error when trying to restore the boot img.
By mistake, I did a reboot and now I'm stuck on Galaxy S logo. I'm not even able to access the recovery.
I tried combination of Vol up + power + Home, taking out the battery and removing the sd card but nothing worked.
any help??
Forget recovery. Remove and reinsert battery. Enter download mode and flash a froyo firmware with bootloaders.

how can I enter download mode? as I said, I'm stuck on the galaxy s logo screen
After reinserting the battery, don't start the phone. You'll have a blank screen, when you should press Vol Down+Home+Power keys to start phone in download mode. Then you can flash using ODIN. There are several tutorials lying around, for the same. Run a search...

[Q] Did I brick my SGS BT-I9000?

I Have a similar problem as posted by someone else - but I can't reply in that thread yet so here it is:
Also SGS GT-I9000 - now stuck on white logo screen.
What I have done:
- phone was slow and very laggy so I wanted to install new ROM
- found out that 3bc didn't work so tried to fix that using a guide from SamsungGalaxySforums based on one from XDA (tried to post the link, but forum rules won't let me).
- now download mode works but recovery mode still doesn't.
- when rebooting without being attached to laptop it showed funny coloured lines first
- I tried this whole thing again and now my phone is stuck on white logo screen. Still able to get into download mode and flash, but no booting phone.
Any ideas? Should I flash a different bootloader?
EDIT: I had tried the Aries_P-SBL.tar.md5 bootloader and only got coloured lines.
Now using the EZboot-GingerBread-1.0.tar.md5 bootloader and getting a bootloader screen. Now making a backup of all my data first.
EDIT: After backup still hangs at white Galaxy S screen - so still no working phone! Ideas?
Turn off your phone and reboot into the recovery mode by pressing Volume UP+ Home + Power.
Then when in the recovery, select Wipe Data and Cache. Reboot when done. You should be up and running. Also, first boot may take a while so be patient.

It says in his post, recovery wont work, only download.
Sounds to me he has screwed up the bootloader.
Now you've done this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1089989
I now suggest you boot to download and flash a stock rom using ODIN.
just flash stock Rom using Odin and than you can flash what you want

[Q] [q] Boot loop?

Hi,
in preperation for the ICS release coming soon, i thought id flash my gnote back to a stock rom. I am going from RocketRom version 22 (i did have cwm and rooted)
I booted my device into download mode using the jig and using odin 1.85 put the file : into pda
N7000XXLA6_N7000XXLA4_N7000XEULA1_HOME.tar.md5
it says the flash went successfully and upon restart the phone just loops on the samsung galaxy swirly logo.
Is there something im missing?
please help!
sorry for panic, managed to fix by booting into recovery menu and wiping to factory defaults....thanks
Pull out your battery, wait for a bit, put it back in.
Boot into Recovery (Volume up + Home + Power) and do a factory reset and cache wipe. Reboot.
That ought to help.
Edited: wasn't quick enough.

flash gingerbread via odin.
then install cwm recovery 4
then install cwm 5
wipe data and cache before and after flashin a new rom of ur choice...
Lol. I faced this problem long time back. Do this-
Flash stock Rom with help of Odin.
After it tells pass, you ll boot loop. Its normal.
Remove usb.
Remove battery and put it back while its boot looping.
Go to "Stock Recovery" and then clear user data and cache.
Reboot and wait. Might take around 1min-5min max. Good luck.

[I9001] Phone stuck in bootloop

I don't know how the issue started. I have been using CM10 for almost 2 months without issues. I restarted the phone and boom! It was stuck in a bootloop with that boot animation keeping appearing all the time. I tried a factory reset, flashing the ROM again, flashing another ROM, and even flashing the stock ROM with all the images using ODIN. It was still stuck on the boot animation. I was surprised that the last solution didn't work because everytime I did it, the phone recovered from the bootloop.
I can still enter into download and recovery mode.

Samsung GT-I9000 boot into recovery mode after pressing the power button
Not sure it is the same problem or not, but my phone (Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000) keeps booting into recovery mode everytime I turn on the phone by pressing the power button. I tried to root with the stock PIT file and stock ROM or CWM recovery and stock ROM or any customized ROM, such as CMD 10.1, but it still boots into the recovery mode every time I turn on the phone WITHOUT using any combo keys, e.g. VOL down, Home and Power buttons).
The thing is that the recovery mode is not looping. Basically, after I press just the POWER button, the phone boots into the recovery mode and stay there.
Please help!
Many thanks!!!

Hey you are gonna want to flash a stock image using odin which will solve your problem. There should be a guide somewhere
My problem is solved, I had to go to "Mounts and storage" in recovery and choose "format /cache"

What you have to do is to flash the boot loader, I had the same exact problem and this solved it. But our devices are different so I don't think my boot loader will work on yours.
