Bootloop Galaxy S+ with any Firmware

---

Hi everyone,

my colleague has a Galaxy S+ on Stock rom and when he pulled out his phone of his pocket it was boot looping. The blue animation and the big white S is looping all the time.
He has no root or no rom or whatever modification made.
From my experience of my GS2 I first installed FeaMod Recovery and deleted the dalvic cache and fixed permissions --> no change.
I made a factory reset --> no change
I installed several firmwares KGS, KGP, KP4 --> no change

I have no idea if I am doing something wrong..
I flashed via Multi Downloader and when flashing was done or almost done the phone rebooted as multi downloader said in status menu and the white Samsung Logo appears.
What to do next?
Nothing happened and phone didnt start so I turned off the phone and restarted which resulted in boot loop as mentioned in the beginning.
Am I doing something wrong?
Any other idea what do do?
How could I format the internal sdcard?
Via the recovery it cannot be mounted for whatever reason.

So....
U've got FeaMod. Have u tryied mount as usb storage? computer should see two sd card.
If u can put phone in download mode u should try install by Odin 2.3.4 - 3 files rom? it should delete everything in phone

I flashed via Multi Downloader and when flashing was done or almost done the phone rebooted as multi downloader said in status menu and the white Samsung Logo appears.
What to do next?

How long do u wait? Phone should reboot after while up to 10minuts.
Maybe try on other computer? I had problems before on windows 7, then i tryied on XP and went smoothly....

mounting as usb storage does not work.
Any other possibility to format the internal sd card?

I waited several minutes and tried XP and Win7 with the same result.
When the phone reboots automatically when flashing, do I just have to wait?

It should restart once and show android come out of box, then restart again.
Second restart is taking bit longer at flashing "big S" at screen.

I flashed my sgs+ today twice because i tryied install custom roms.

Unfortunately if thats not help u probably only service can help u due to damaged partition. System or internal sd
Before u send phone to service, flash 2.3.4, unroot and bring back stock recovery.


Oh, try to flash it again without sim card and external sd

After flashing only the Samsung Logo shows and nothing else happens.
I was flashing without sim and sdcard all the time.

Btw, I managed to format the internal sd after reflashing the feamod recovery but still the same result.

He will now return the phone. I flashed a stock firmware, I now do have to see how to remove the feamod recovery.

thanks for your help anyway

Flash 3 files rom by Odin. Should restore stock recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1346245

Definitely 2.3.4 XXKP4 is 3 files rom but is rooted. Try 2.3.3 roms
