    It didn't work for me. After flashing this stock rom my phone kept on restarting. Help!


    *Edited, after booting to recovery mode and selected wipe data/factory reset everything went fine. Thanks for this! I already pressed thanks ;)

    hey - i'd really appreciate any help i can get on this issue. flashed a recovery to the gt-s5301, apparently corrupt... phone wont boot regularly or into recovery. i can get it into download mode but it isnt recognized by odin or pc, and dont think its a driver issue. it shows the samsung logo and stays at that. is there anyway to get it up and running again, or is this going to be my latest android failure?

    Are you sure drivers are installed properly and your cable is working? Mine worked after installing kies even though I download the samsung drivers beforehand.
    Try installing different versions of Odin. It should detect your device after you press the Continue option in download mode.
    Can your PC detect your phone at all? like do you see a usb device in device manager?

    i faced the restart issue . so any one can tell me how to acess recovery to wipe data plz ?
    just pull out the battery then reinsert it then press and hold volume+ key and power key simultaneously and release it when screen come on. i think that should do the trick
