So, my friend decided to try and install cyanogenmod 9 on my Galaxy gio S5660M. Well now its bricked and all i want is to put it back to its original state, I'm personally no good at any of this stuff. So help would be very much appreciated!
More details please what was wrong, what happened, is it in bootloop?

okay, so he put cm_gio-ota-eng-.beta8 on my SD card and went into recovery mode and installed it. It installed successfully, then rebooted my phone, and it just stays on a black screen and thats it. I can power it off and go to recovery mode still. My pc wont detect my phone either.

My friend gave me his phone today, I had previously rooted it for him and installed a rom, he said he tried to flash a gingerbread rom not really knowing what he was doing, and now the phone boots directly to the bootloader screen, it also can go into a green recover, from recovery I try to install zip from sd and sd shows nothing, I'm more familiar using odin with samsung phones so any suggestions would be helpful
You could always take the SD card out and put it directly into your computer and copy a rom to it that way, put it back in phone, boot into recovery and flash from there
From recovery toggle ms ( or something that sounds like that) plug it in via usb then copy a Rom, to the SD card.
Your friend probably formatted everything thing including the sdcard during his attempt to flash, which is why there is nothing there.
If his recovery don't have SD mount, feature (ra has it, clockwork not sure) u will have to pull the SD card and copy a rom to it, or u could possibly use and to push the zip to it,

Simple he forgot to flash the gapps.. AOSP roms you have to flash the gapps separately and if you dont it will boot loop to HBOOT... what rom did he try to flash.. Also please let him know that if he had read the OP fully he would of known to flash the gapps as well. Let me know if this was the problem... Good Luck
Mount usb.since its green im more than likely assuming its Amon RA recovery.connect to PC and copy the ROM of your choice,and follow prerequisites if any.usually a data/dalvik/cache and factory reset via recovery will suffice.then just flash from SD--->chose zip file--->yourromzipname.zip then power to flash.

Hey, i am kinda new to android. I first had a Samsung galaxy s, and there i had no problems flashing roms. Then i would try the Omega rom on my Note 2, and started following the instructions. I flashed the rom, but nothing happened, i was still on android 4.1.1, and it was still stock samsung rom. But then my phone started acting weird, and it became very slow, and when i put it in sleep i couldt wake it up again. Then i thought i just could flash the stock samsung rom, and it would be normal again. So i flashed the 4.1.2 from France, but i still had the same problems. So now i tried the 4.1.1 Germany, but now im just stuck at the samsung logo. I can still get it in recovery and download mode. Please help me :crying:
And sorry for my english, i know it isn't the best

Read and follow each instruction to the word and everything will be alright.
1.Download a ROM. I suggest Omega . Link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1915036
2. Take out ext sd card from phone and connect to pc via card reader and transfer the downloaded rom .zip file to the card .
3.Put the card in the phone.
4.Assuming the phone is switched off, press down volume + home button+ power button(in the same order) . Keep holding it till you get Samsung logo and get into recovery mode(I hope you have clockwork mod recovery)
5.choose install zip from sdcard> choose zip from external sdcard and then select the ROM .zip file and flash it.
6.The rest should be self explanatory. Do backup your efs when the installer asks to do so. When the rom is installed , reboot and then wait. The first boot takes time. At the most 15 minutes or so.
7. Enjoy
Good luck friend.

P.S. Do hit the thanx button if you find my post helpful
Before starting to install
Clear in the order-
Data
Cache
Dalvik cache
Factory reset
System
Sdcard.
This will delete the minuteset piece of rom and data from your device.

Hey, thanks for the answer.
I can start my phone now, but there doens't pop this box up where i can choose to put things on the internal storage. Is there a way to manual putting it in to media transfer mode or what you can call it?
YOu mean when you connect phone via USB?
YOu want mass storage mode?

Earlier I reflashed back to the stock rom for my Galaxy S III, and after I flashed a new install of cyanogen mod I can't get my phone out of the boot loop. I can still access download mode but Odin and my computer won't pick up on it, and I can still access Clockword Mod. Is there anything to do or am I out of luck because my computer doesnt recognize my phone
Do you have an ext SD card ? Place a ROM on the ext card.
Did you wipe cache in stock recovery after flashing back to stock ?

Try this, usually in a case like yours there is at least a 50% success rate.
Reboot the phone into recovery and do a "Factory Reset".
After doing that reboot the phone and see if it boots completely.
If the phone boots up completely, you will also be able to go into download mode.
You may want to shell out less than $5.00 including shipping for a USB JIG on eBay or other places.
With a JIG all you do is turn the phone off or remove your battery, wait 20 seconds - replace battery and plug the little JIG into the usb of the
phone then wait a 2-3 seconds more or less and like magic you will be in download mode ready to Odin flash(tar) a proper Touchwiz Jellybean
I747 4.1.2 stock rooted rom which are very much un-like all these CM10/AOSP/AOKP roms which are all just experimental.
Once you have flashed the stock rooted jellybean 4.1.2 TAR rom you will be able to flash any custom Touchwiz Jellybean
custom rom of your choice unless you still want to go ahead and flash another experimental CM/AOKP/ASOP rom.
Good luck!
Not to nit pick, but the latest stock Jelly Bean for the I747 is 4.1.1, not 4.1.2. Also, most of the stock rooted roms don't include custom recovery. They usually include the stock 3e recovery. To get a custom recovery, just dl Rom manager for cwm, or goo manager for twrp, and they can install a recovery for you that will have you ready to flash.
Which version of stock did you flash?

What bootloader and modem are currently on your phone?
What ROM were you on and what were you flashing when the troubles started?
Since you can get into download mode, can you get into Recovery Mode? If you can, try putting CM11 on a MicroSd card and flash it from CWM.

My sgs2 is stuck in a boot loop, computers won't recognize the usb connection, and my sd card won't mount on philz touch 5 V6.0.3.7 My SD card is, however, recognizable if I plug it directly to my computer using an adapter.
so I rooted my phone using CWM. After that, my computer stopped recognizing my phone. I tried everything to fix it including factory resetting my phone, formatting cache, data, system, and sd card all under the CWM boot menu (hold volup+home+power). Soon afterwards, my phone got stuck in a boot loop. On startup, it hangs on the white "Samsung" logo. While trying to fix the issue, I noticed that my sd card won't mount.
I've tried this method, but it requires that I either have usb access or access to my phone. I've tried formatting the SD card in my computer. I've tried using different computers. I've tried using different usb cords. I've tried searching Google and these forums for a solution. i have uninstalled the samsung drivers countless times and rebooted with no success.
I need to figure out a way to flash the stock rom back to my phone. In order to do this, I need to get my usb to recognize or manage to have phil touch 5 v 6.0.3.7 mount the sd card. If I can do this, the rest is easy. Does anyone has any ideas on what can be done? please please assist!

Hi, I had a similar problem a day ago, I corupted CWM and couldn't boot into android, When i started my phone a samsung logo appeared and then black screen, I could access download mode ( Power button, Volume - and home button ) So all you do after you enter download mode is download Odin multi downloader, and a flashable ClockworkMOD recovery, ( PM me if you want links ) and flash it into the phone, after that just reboot the phone and you will be just fine.

Hey,
First put your phone into download mode and plug it in to your PC and make sure Odin recognizes it, then add Ancora.ops in the OPS window and the recovery.tar.md5 in the One package window. Also make sure that One package , Auto reboot and Protect OPS are checked, you should uncheck reset time because i've hear that it is causing some problems. Then just click the " Start " button and sit back, you phone will be back on in few minutes.
Just a question : Did you have any android installed when you corrupted the recovery? If yes, after you flashed the recovery the phone will reboot and will boot into android, if not then just flash the rom file if you already have one in your sdcard/internal storage.
Your phone is soft-bricked, don't worry, it will be back and running again :laugh:
I just corrupted my recovery on my phone on purpose to try if the cwm recovery works. And yes, it worked, so it should work on your phone too.
Good luck flashing your recovery, Please answer back because I want to know if this method worked.
Here are the files, just extract the rar file
Finally i have KitKat!!
Finally Solved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After long days and hundred tries, it works finally. The story is as below:
1- I failed to download the CWM 6.0.4.5 directly in this state using ODIN,
2- I downloaded the stock (Yes old 2.3.6 ginger bread ROM) using ODIN. However this version keep rebooting and never completed the start up.
3- With ROM installed now (even it's not booting), i tried to download older version of CWM using ODIN (CWM 5.0.4). It was successful!!
4- I tried to do the restore for my old system, but it failed as i did backup with newer version.
5- I flashed Monster ROM (4.2.2), it works wonderful.
6- I downloaded the CWM 6.0.4.5 finally using ODIN.
7- Now i'm using 4.4.2 on my mobile finally.
Advice: Never do a flashing to your mobile when you are not fully concentrating what you are doing. Also, make sure to download the right tool and ROM for your device.
Thank you for everyone who tried to help me.

Hey All,
I have a current predicament on my hands.. I have a N7105T that I had rooted and I noticed my TWRP was out of date..So I decided to update it using an app I downloaded from the play store (Name has been lost to me) but it downloaded it and installed and updated..But I had presumed that something had gone wrong because It didn't reset on its own, so i reset it myself and after that it wouldn't load and was stuck on the boot screen (Where it tells you what phone you have)
I looked on here and found a solution, downloaded Odin and a restore TAR for my particular model..after that successfully worked I then decided to try and install a new rom on my phone...Well that was a bad idea, I did as was instructed wiped the data etc: clean installation..but for some reason it kept failing to install..
So now I cant even get into the Boot Manager and all its showing is that there was a problem with the firmware and to use Kies to fix it up, So I downloaded a stock rom from sammobile and followed the instuctions to load the rom onto my phone from another topic on this site...
It is now constantly failing when I try and use Odin to load the rom...It just hangs and then says failed in red.
I am stessing because I really need my phone and I know I should have just left it working but I like to try and experiment but unfortunately it has backfired on me.
I have the samsung drivers installed and I have one stock rom for my particular phone but I am in the process of downloading an older version.
My Provider is Telstra.
I hope I have provided enough info and not rambled on too much.
Regards
Justin
I had the same problem with you... I've learned that I shouldn't trust thing I don't download my self and read what it says.....
Anyways what I would suggest is go to twrp website and download the .tar of the recovery and use Odin to install it on to your phone and see if you can get into the recovery mode
(Volume down+power or volume up+home+power)
If that does the work install Kies onto your phone and under tools -》firmware upgrade and initialize (note you should only do this as your last resort since it'll put a boot loader that you won't want onto your phone
