Help firmware I7500XEFJB2

take the battery out and following sticky FAQs put your phone into recovery mode and do recovery as suggested after that the phone will delete all data (will go to factory default settings) and will boot as normal

volume_down+call+power button to boot in to recovery mode then press meny button to start recovering

First I want to thank you guys for your instant replies.

I tried starting in recovery mode following your instructions. But while booting it stops at SAMSUNG image and nothing happens after that. I cant do anything after that. Can you guys please help me out... :-( :-(
