wipe data/cache
wipe cache
wipe dalvik
wipe bat stats
and after this flashed froyo 2.2.2 SBF .....

Dont worry!
Go to stock recovery(press and hold power+ vol up till the phone boots to stock recovery)
Then you will see an android with triangle. Press vol up and down simultaneously till menu comes. Wipe data and cache. Reboot.
Ps- even after phone shows bootlogo dont let go of power and vol up buttons.

& stock recovery? how can i get that now..bkoz my fone is already back to froyo..(stock rom) and meh cant install SndInitDefy for recovery..

"Switch phone off, press and hold volume-down button then switch phone on. When the android with the exclamation mark appears, you have to press both volume keys (for more info, check All-in-one Defy beginners guide)" Motorola Defy Wiki
Then press wipe data and cache, and everything should work

Thats why power+vol down. To boot into stocn recovery. Stock roms have stock recovery.

Reboot into recovery by pressing vol- and power button together then wipe data.wipe cache. Wipe dalvic cache. Then flash ROM and gapps
Sent from my Blade using xda app-developers app

did you repartition your internal memory for CM?
It may be possible that your /system is not large enough for your stock ROM.
Flash CM again and see if it works,
(if you are not sure about partition size,in terminal emulator type df -h, and report how much you get for system. for stock you need 200+ MB)

yes i had installed cwm. i had updated my cell from froyo to cynogenmod 7 about 2 or 3 months ago using rom manager and cwm. and this time i was trying to try something different rom and its very hard to remember what went wrong.
also as u suggested i tried download tpt helper but i couldn't find a way to install tpt helper from play store. my phone is not going further from the dell logo, once i press the power button the dell logo appears on the screen and remains that way no matter how long i leave it to process further. dead end. i think its the situation that should be called "bricked"...:crying:

[Recovery]CWM for Samsung Galaxy SIII mini - official

Few days ago an official CWM recovery was made from the ClokworkMod team for our device. Here you can find the link for the site to download or you can download the ROM Manager app from the play store. It's version 6.0.2.7 and it is the latest version.
It's official so don't ask if it work, cos it works.

This has nothing to do with me, it's not my work, i'm just sharing the info!

Find a backup of original recovery.img for i8190 and put it on your external sd.
Use Terminal emulator with "dd if=/storage/extSdCard/recovery.img of=dev/block/mmcblk0p21" command, and it will be written to your recovery partition.

What different between CWM recovery and original recovery?
Is both support three key combo reboot? Volume up + home + power when phone starting..... or how?
Which is better for usage?

i'm install cwm and uninstall tool : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2093727 but increasing custom binary count : 1 how to reset ????

You can't reset it not yet.
Why did you even flash it with Odin? You should've asked me to make a flashable zip with stock recovery, like the ones you saw in other CWM topics.
But most importantly, why did you reflash stock recovery in the first place?

I`m not able to access CWM recovery mode by holding down the 'HOME' + 'VOLUME UP' buttons and press the 'POWER' button for about 5 seconds . The phone show me a black screen and reboot again , if try again to enter recovery mode I face same reboot , if no key are pressed is just booting normally . Strange is that TWRP recovery is working perfectly with the combination of vol up + menu + power

Isn't it just a good idea to have it on the charger while flashing? Or does this have a negative effect?

If TWRP is an option for you you can install it using the GooManager app, install the GooManager app, open it press the menu button go to install openrecoveryscript it'll say this will download and write a recovery image to your device. Press Yes.
It then asks you if you want to install openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-find5.img, this is the latest version made by Kamma and Dees_Troy I believe.
This should help you out.

Alright There is an issue with a find 5 that i tried to trouble shoot. The owner of this find 5 is able to boot into fastboot but not into recovery. No matter how many times I tried to flash recovery, it always did but the phone refused to enter recovery. First, it doesnt even start without a power source. whether it be a connection to the computer or power outlet, it needs as a power source, and when it doesn, holding the volume down + power it goes from the oppo screen to a black screen. Anyone have any idea? I even flashed the rom though fastboot (which i didnt know could be done but apparently it can) and it still didnt turn on and still had the same issues

Well that's a problem. You might try the jig but I've never had to use one so don't know if or how well it'll work.
Sent from my Nexus 5

Seeing that you said you can enter recovery via ADB, you phone should not require a jig I believe, as it tries to boot and. Start ADB which allowed you to enter there. Also did you say that while on recovery your phone starts pressing random buttons. Like say up and down I assume? Just wondering if you have broken volume keys or malfunctioning keys.
And which model S4 do you have?
