If you have 'tried' to enter recovery, 'try' again after removing the battery and replacing it.

It should still boot to recovery. Make sure you're holding both volume keys down. If all else fails, flash back to stock samsung and go from there.

[Q] Ramdump and Boot loop error > Pls help !

Hello,
Yesterday, I buy my new i8150 Galaxy Wonder and i root my phone
I install the rom Black Notes Chapter 2 with ClockworkMod.
I used V6 Supercharger with scrip manager.
After the restart everything worked normally and I just installed Viber app.
Being tired, I have not verified if the scrip was properly installed
I go to bed and getting up several hours later, my i8150 galaxy displays a black screen with
RAMDUMP mode
<null>
I will restart my phone and there's only the Samsung logo that flashes every second.
No more access to Clockwormod, the logo flashes too.
The only thing I know to do is put it into Download Mode or RAMDUMP Mode > cause: force upload
So I try flashed an original rom (W I8150XXKK1 Galaxy (EUR)) into Download Mode with Odin Multi Downloader v4.43.
Every step is going well, but when it restarts automatically at the end of the process, the Samsung logo blinking again.
I also tried to reinstall ClockworkMod with Odin Multi Downloader, but still the stage proceeds successfully, always the same problem of flashing samsung logo on startup and no access to ClockworkMod
Help me please, it's been over 5 hours I'm looking for a solution.
THANK YOU
I'm not completely new to android, I trained for over a year with my ZTE Blade with different Rom (CyanogenMod)

Oh2.. This is interesting r u sure no access to CWM ? If possible best to wipe all system folder making the phone fully wiped.
Have you tried to flash stock recovery ?

Just doing independent research
From 1:10 wonder has this problem...
No kidding, but the characteristic for the phone that possible have a boot loop are always have FORCE CLOSE app and doing RESTART itself
It can fixed but only if we get stock firmware with wipe and boot loader to fix this issue
I will bring this issue to new tread

This is EXACTLY what happened yesterday..and just now I wiped everything in the phone and turned it on. It worked first, but there was a FC on the start or something..and the screen goes black. But I notice that I'm still in the custom ROM I was using (GingerICE). Then I turned it off and and went to CWM. I tried reboot system now, but I was stuck in the samsung logo. Can someone help?
I have the backup of the stock ROM. Is it safe to make the backup?

if you could boot into Recovery screen, you could try:
wipe factory/system, wipe cache, advanced > wipe dalvik.
[careful] i usually format my /system if i get bootloops.
then reflash the ROM. reboot.. in my cases, those steps always worked.
edit: you should checkout the GingerICE with non OC version, the OC may work on some device and some don't, IMO if you're using your droid for daily use, i recommend using the non OC

im facing same issue too here... but i couldn't even access to download mode... tried many times, still failed... help plss...

Same thing happen to me ...today. I can get into download mode, but after flash the with odin it is still the same, boot loop on samsung logo.... help !!!

Is your device rooted or not?
You must be using build.prop tweaks or have changed screen density.
I also got bootloops because stock kernel doesn't support it.

Okay I guess I'll be the first to post.
About an hour ago my phone shut off at 26% battery (16gb galaxy S3 running CM10.1 nightly 01/16). As I went to turn it back on it will boot into the CM splash screen spin a few times and just shut off. I attempted to charge it, and turn it back on but same thing. After that an attempt to get into CWM, which I was able to get in and it shut off while I was in it. I also tried putting the phone in download mode and about the same time frame it took for the other attempts resulted in a shut down.
Any advice? Or am I stuck doing a warranty exchange?

Sounds like its your battery not a hardware problem. Leave it overnight or a couple hours charging and if it indeed boots up its your battery.
If it doesn't then flash stock and test it if the same result then call up that Warranty. I've seen this same issue with other devices where the battery dies at 50%+ and usually replacing the battery fixes the problem. Test your battery for overheating or swollen.

The battery isnt swollen, thats one of the things I checked also. I thought it might be that, the only other option I have is to try a different battery. The good thing is I work in a tmobile store so im gonna give that a shot tomorrow.

Can you start it without battery connected to the wall charger? If so try wipe cache. Or after reflash ROM.

Even better then lol just test it out at work. I'm about 80% its your battery specially if you OV/UC.

I have the t-mobile US t999.
Last night I was having an odd issue with the networking dropping. I've had the phone for about a month, modded since day 1 with a CM10 variation of a rom (sorry, I forget the exact rom). I had no issues whatsoever up until this point. After a few restarts thinking maybe it was a fluke issue with the network, or network signal in my room, the phone forced itself into emergency call mode only. I couldn't get it to come out.
So I decided I was going to odin on a stock rom as I could get it into download mode, that went through successfully. When the phone boots, I get the android taking off (Tmobile 4g) logo. Then the white samsung logo, and it doesn't go beyond this. I know this can take long so I left it there for about an hour, nothing. The phone also displays a blue led the entire time it's hanging as well.
Also worth noting, when I attempt to boot into recovery it just vibrates over and over.
Not sure what my next steps should be. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

after you odin, you need to wipe data/ factory reset to boot. If you can't get into recovery ( Power, Home Button, and Volume Up), then try reflashing your stock image in Odin and check your MD5 sum, so you can rule out a bad download

Thanks for the reply, I'm re-downloading the stock rom now to verify it's integrity and do a new flash. I cannot get into recovery, so we will see after the new flash. Pleading ignorance on one subject, how would I go about checking the MD5 sum to verify the file has no issues?
Additionally I did try to Odin recovery and still could not boot into it, this was however before attempting to re-download and flash a stock rom again.
**Edit//Update** Re-downloaded and flashed stock rom, was able to get into recovery and wipe, booted up fine.

Wow.. great idea for a thread and THANK YOU!!
Perfect timing too cause i need a little help please.
I am not new to android but new to samsung (WOW, didnt realize it would be so different from HTC ont he rooting and flashing side of things).
Long story short. I have a tmo s3. Bought it today and wanted to root. phone was working perfectly as it shoudl on stock rom unrooted. I downloaded the tool kit v7, used that to root adn install TWRP and rebooted into the stock rom that is now rooted. Still everything working perfect.
Here is what i did next and where the issues start.
Downloaded Synergy r290, went to recovery.
Wiped Cache, Dalvik, Data, and System (made a backup first)
flashed the rom and rebooted to system
However, nothing ever happened. I see the samsung logo, then all goes black and nothing happens (left it there for 10min)
I cant seem to get back into recovery holding vol up, home and power either and have no adb access to use that. I AM able to get into download mode which i know i can fix my problem here with odin, but i am just not sure what to flash and where.
Is there an easier way??
Thanks in advance for any help!

If you absolutely can't get into recovery to restore your backup..
Flash the UVDLJA root66 file in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687 via odin. You will have the latest UVDLJA JB update, and will be rooted. From there, install goo manager from the play store to flash TWRP.
After that you're all set to flash whatever you want (just make sure it's for the Tmobile s3).

Just upload the file to PDA and hit start. Make sure to let it finish completely, once the phone reboots, it's done.

Flashing stock with Odin can take up to ten minutes its normal like the man said above just let it do its thing

Let's see if you have any solution for me?

Weird problem. When I set kernel frequencies on my phone, they at some point get locked at the maximum frequency. This has happened every time I flash a new ROM or kernel, and I'm worried that it will soon start to affect the battery. I'm using the msmdvcs governor on both kernels that I've tried (stock and faux)
