Galaxy S stuck in CWM bootloop! HELP!

Hey guys, I'm really in a bad spot here.
So I installed CM10 on a GT-i9000, worked fine except for the hardware buttons not working. So from there, I decided to install SlimBean (A foolish mistake that I thought was foolproof). And boom, now I am here, stuck in a CWM bootloop, and I've tried factory resetting and all, still boots the same.
I've tried installing other roms, sometimes it reboots during installation and doesn't complete, and even if it does complete, same problem, it boots into CWM. And I've noticed a new Samsung AnyCall Boot logo every since I tried SlimBean.
I've tried updating the kernel, no luck. I bought a download mode jig, but windows does not detect the Galaxy S in download mode with Kies installed. (I think I disabled USB Debugging in CM10)
Any suggestions? This is really stressing me out. I'm prepared to use odin, but download mode is not recognized on my PC.

You will hadware buttons failure when you flash a i9000 ROM on an Anycall M110S ( Korean Galaxy S) , so I am curious are you sure your phone is not an Anycall M110S? since you also getting Anycall boot screen...sounds odd, that i9000 will do that.
For USB connection problems , just try link on Quick Fixes and Solutions link below

Go back your original firmware...
Any updates to this?
I am having a similar situation. I tried flashing ICS ROM to my Anycall Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000. It is now stuck in recovery mode. I tried doing factory reset and wiping the cache and dalvik cache and tried reflashing. Everything goes fine but gets stuck in the recovery mode - more correctly in download mode but the download mode logo flashes twices and enters to recovery mode.
Any possible solutions to get me out of this mess?
Thanks,
Sid
your problem will be solved with this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24831012&postcount=1330
Edit : above url is for S+ your device is S , sorry .
Thanks, but anything similar for Galaxy S? And remember my download mode does not stay, if flashes twice and runs into recovery mode. So if your solution is something to do in recovery mode it will be helpful (or if your solution is to first make me stay on download mode and then flash something using odin I will be thankful)
Regards,
Sid

Check your Model, Anycal does not make GT I9000, it makes only M110S and firmwares / solutions for them vary.
If you have Anycal M110S visit PIT STOP link below to solve your problems
Check Here to chose your forum/Guide by Version of your phone or you will have more problems by using wrong solutions due to different versions of Galaxy S
you can get a rescue kit from My Android Collections and or a solution from My Android Solutions
But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....Do remember to backup your contacts, data, images etc and also your EFS folder before flashing a ROM and make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.

Glad that worked for you, but I for some reason can't be so lucky. I tried to also flash CWM 10 but after the home key not working I decided to flash Slim Bean and now I am stuck. My phone isn't even recognized by Odin any more and I have tried different USB ports and even my laptop with Heimdall. I don't know what to do at this point, but any kind of suggestions would be great. Usually when I get stuck I just flash back to Stock and start all over with a new ROM or kernel but I have no idea where to go from this point.

HELP! My galaxy ace won't boot anymore HELP!

Hello,
I have installed this "ibtimes . co . uk / articles / 419836 / 20130102 / android421-jellybean-cm101-custom-rom-samsung-galaxy . htm" rom on my (actually my mom's) galaxy ace S5830 and it worked just fine. Before i installed it i made a CWM recovery backup. I wasn't happy with the rom so i wanted to go back to my last one by restoring the backup. first i wiped data and cache and then restored the backup. But now when i tried to reboot the system it got stuck on the Samsung logo and later on it was just a light blue screen. can someone help me please.
Don't worry, you need to flash a stock ROM via Odin. Look at the stickies

Chill your phone can be fixed easily
Simple Bro , Download the firmware files from sammobile.com then Google for Galaxy Ace Odin ..I guess the version is 4.38 or something like that ..and make sure you download the cooper file with it then flash the original firmware using Odin.So then your phone is back to how it was when you bought it.
I hope this was helpful.
If you want the instructions on how to do this ..let me know ..I'll give you the link for the files also

I really hope that someone could help me!
Thanks in advance.

Dude! Switch off the phone. Then press the 3key combo to go to Download mode. U don't need to go to recovery either (which is a 2key combo). & ops name should be:-
COOPER_v1.0.ops

Hi BscorpionII!
As you can open recovery, if you don't have CWM 5.0.2.6 you could install it from your recovery and then try installing another ROM from CWM 5.0.2.6.
You could read this link
"Nielli's [GUIDE] Guides and Tips How to Root SGA, Install CWM5 and install Mods + Downloads"
In the link you'll find the last stable recovery -version 5.0.2.6- and much more.
Good luck.

HELP! problem w my samsung. I cant add a new rom or the twrp w odin :c any solution?

good day members. I have a samsung galaxy s3 mini and I have not been able to solve an error that I have. when I turn on the device it shows the samsung s3mini logo and then a screen with a ring spinning, after a few seconds, the device is rebooted.
I have tried to install cm, a stock rom, lineage and even nothing. the odin program shows me that the installation of twrp and any rom was successful, but when I turn on the device, it remains the same with the same reboot. What I can do? If someone knows Spanish, I would appreciate it.
I give him a netflix account to help me solve my problem.
The same thing happen to my s3 mini , I not found any solution :/
