Hey guys, first post on this forum,
Was running CM12.1 on my i9100 for about a year or so. All was fine usually I use the integrated CM updater but it seems we had to guess that it was a complete NONO from 12.1 to CM13.
So after the update CM13 worked well BUT I had a dead recovery because it cannot upload zips from SDCARD anymore, and google services were continually crashing. So I decided to start by fixing my RECOVERY so I could atleast have access to reflashing whatever I would need to get it to work properly and after flashing an ISOREC-TWRP Kernel, phone wouldn't boot properly and would always start up trying to OPTIMIZE all my apps and then reset when it was done and start over so I'm working with limited time I decided to reflash a CWM 6.0.5.1 Kernel like we used in the past for CM10,11,12 and that flashed fine through ODIN, but when I restarted the phone now goes to a black screen after showing the samsung logo. I can still access DOWNLOAD MODE but using VOLUME UP, HOME, POWER does not get me into the recovery so what would be the appropriate steps to just get the phone working again?
Thanks alot!
