I installed a custom ROM on my Samsung vibrant. after the installation was complete the phone restarted, but it would freeze on "vibrant" and it wont start up. I tried removing the battery and putting it back in. I was able to get the phone back to recovery mode. I can reinstall the same update.zip file, but the phone would still not start up. is there a way to access the phone memory to replace the update.zip file so the phone would work again? Or anything else I can do ?

This has happened to me twice now. my phone does not have a custom ROM. It has 2.1 with the OTA GPS fix. i had to 3 button restore to fix the first time. I'm trying to see if i can avoid doing so this time.

I used Odin3 to fix my Vibrant and it worked great! Just make sure that you use Odin3 v1.3!!! The older version will freeze every time.
