Semi Bricked Help!

Hi,

I was trying to flash a custom ROM using ODIN but now when I boot up the phone I get a Phone - ! - Computer logo and nothing else.

I can still boot into download mode and think I need to flash a stock ROM, but I'm not sure which one's a stock one. Can anyone point me in the right direction, or have another solution?

I'm a UK O2 user if that helps.

Cheers.
 
Hello, I'm trying to flash my device to: GT-I9100_XEO_I9100XXKH3_I9100XXKH3_I9100OXAKH3, but after odin completes the phone throws an error something like "cant acess: system/csc?/H3G/SYSTEM????" (its too fast) and them I'm stuck in a boot loop.


A little background:
I rooted, unlocked, installed cwm, downloded modaco custom rom and put on external sd. Booted cwm (forgot to back up:eek:) factory reset, wipe cache, and dalvik. Then found CWM couldn't access my external SD. OMG


Any ideas?

Do I need to re-partition also on Odin?

Hi Batfink!

Boot into recovery, connect to the PC via USB, go to "mounts and storage" and select "mount USB storage". You can then copy the Modaco ROM zip to the removable drive with Explorer and try flashing it as CWM will recognise /sdcard okay.

edit: DO NOT repartition with Odin unless specifically instructed to!
