Can you get to the Recovery by taking out the battery, then holding home+power? If so, put the update on the root of your SD, go to the Recovery, wipe, then update. Let me know what happens.
The only ways to brick a phone is to interupt a flash, or flashing the SPL before the radio. If you can enter recovery or fastboot you can recover the device. But we need more information in order to help you with your specific problem.

Hey guys my friends phone for some reason wont recognize the USB from the computer. So we cant put anything on his internal card, the usb just charges it. I tried to odin in download mode and still wont read the phone. Tried USB debugging, try reformatting, tried factory resetting, battery pull, clearing cache etc. Just everything you can do basically.
Wondering if anyone knows a fix for this.
Thanks.
Stupid question, but oort worked before correct?
What rom are you on
What are you looking to do
He is on Seredipities 5.8 with the suckerpunchs kernel.
It did before but stopped randomly 2 weeks ago.
He just wants the function back as it is very inconvenient.
Try different kernel
Dl sgs kernel flasher from market
Dl hardcore kernel
Open app
Choose kernel
...
Navigate to download folder
Select kernel zip
Flag kernel
Tried that and still nothing.
What happens when you plug into the pc? Are you using an oem cord?
Tried reinstalling drivers?
We get no response from my computer, and his computer says USB no recognized.
I already reinstalled the drivers, my phone works no problem just his. Same builds too.
We are using the OEM cord and when we plug it in his phone just starts charging, nothing about USB.
Got me, could try another rom, although I am bit certain that will work. Sorry, could be a hardware issue
Perhaps I'll get him to do that if there is a rom that doesnt requite odin back to stock.
Hopfully it isnt a hardware issue.
Thanks anyways.
Any rom can be flashed without odin, I do it all the time, did it twice today
Ok will give it a try, just every rom I read they tell us to flash to stock so just assumed we had to.
Honestly, old habit, dev do not know what you have on your phone so if you start from stock easier to problem shoot
Sorry I just read my mistake
We flashed a new rom but now he is stuck on the boot screen... Can't even get into recovery any more. I guess its bricked now? f**k...
What rom, can you still get into recovery, how long in boot screen
Stayed for ever, waited 15 mins. Can't get into recovery either. We tried to flash a froyo stock rom.

u need ADB....
adb reboot recovery
edit....just re-read that..... why on earth stock froyo? you flashed a stock rom over a voodoo enabled filesystem...just flash a voodoo kernel from odin

That is your problem right there. I wish you posted that first. Serendipity had ext 4 lag fix, custom recovery. All custom roms have custom recovery that can understand ext 4. Stock dots not so you should of disabled lag fix first.
Get into dl mode try all ported on pc to get odin to recognize
Can't even get in download mode.

Restore what exactly? The rom that was giving you all the trouble in the first place? You might want to redownload the rom and check the md5sum just to be sure its not a corrupt download. Dont forget to wipe first, like what was suggested above.
before following the above suggestions which are spot on, i would suggest you do a bit of reading to familiarize yourself with the basics.
hope you have made a nandroid backup of the original stock rom.
steps you should follow (or should have)
- nandroid backup of your current rom
- check if s-off'd (and if you want it)
- install recovery as required
- download desired rom and check mdsum
- clean wipe, install
And also make sure that your battary is minimum 50-60% charged. You can find your battery level but in touch recovery mode only.
maybe you forgot flashing boot.img ??
If nothing works, run an ruu.

did you tried a factory reset? i think you have this option in bootloader
I can not solve the problem by installing the original ROM
You might have a corrupt partition/partition table. Try formatting all your partitions in recovery.

Please read the entire thread before making posts on an old post. If you had, you would have seen that the poster has solved his issue.
I was trying to restore my phone to previous state using Rom Manager. Phone restarted in recovery mode, formatted the boot partition and failed to restore. I applied existing of CWM ROM update.zip and snce then my phone restarts in Recovery mode everytime.
I tried one click restore using ODIN, Heimdall nothing worked. recreated the partitions wiped everything, loaded stock ROM but still the phone boots up in recovery mode.
Please suggest some pointers on how to troubleshoot this problem.

do you mean the one click for installing stock rom or something else?
I had the same problem a few days ago couldn't figure it Out. searched and searched for the right image
Files for my Nexsus S. I ended up wiping everything and flashed all the image files with TRWP cause CWR wouldn't work
for the stock ICS and and it worked fine. Now I'm running the 4.1.1 jellybean it sweet.Hope this helps.

Yes the one click package for installing Stock ROM. it did repartitioning, wiped all data, loaded everything successfully. but after booting it shows up the recovery screen.

Hmmm... i've heard of cases where the power button on the captivate refuses to be 'unpressed' which makes it boots up just by plugging in the battery,
Maybe it's like that with your volume buttons?
Does it feels a little bit weird like it doesn't click when you press it?

Thats a good point...
The buttons seem to be normal. I tried keytest and the results look fine
Volume Up : 115
Volume Down : 114
Power : 116
Menu : 139
Home : 102
Search : 217
Back : 158
Moreover I can access recovery and flash any ROM that I have on SDCard. Funny part whenever I flash a new ROM I see a new recovery
Do you know of anyway use ADB without booting phone and putting it in debugging mode?
Thanks for your inputs.
Update: Issue is resolved
I'm not sure on exactly what worked. Using System Corps Recovery, I changed all the partitions to ext4. Made some random changes to toggles during boot. Restarted in download mode and flashed a one click stock rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
it booted in recovery, then clicked on Flash Bootloader in one click and restarted the phone in download mode and flashed it again with the same ROM.
Thats it. I feel that Bootloader did the trick, but I had it flashed earlier as well.
Thanks irfarf & Sammyazel for your inputs on this.

congrats!!
i do also think that it was the boot loader is the problem here
i had a few problem with my friends cappy won't go into download mode and whenever it boots up, it shows a bunch of random colors than a boot image. turns out that the last bootloader flash wasn't done correctly or something.
Confirmed - the problem is with the bootloader. Once I flashed an original firmware from Samsung, I was then able to install CWM and any ROM I wish after that. Not sure what caused the problem, but this was the solution in my case. Thanks to everyone who pointed me in the right direction!!!

Try running the keytest from recovery mode to ensure all the keys are working fine.
In my case it was corrupt bootloader that caused this issue. you can try flashing stock ROM with bootloaders to fix it.
All the best!
i have same problem. buttons work ok after key test.
how can i reinstall the bootloader?
ps: i hate this stuff.....reminds me of win95/98......awefull times

What exactly did you do to get to this point?
You can find Odin KK4 with bootloaders here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
You will need to flash corn kernel with Odin 1.85 afterwards if you wanna flash a custom ROM.
Hey guys
I've been following the forum for a while, but never posted anything, but now I need to.
So, I flashed a CWM, to be more specific this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852725
And now, I can't do nothing with the phone, can't flash the recovery 5.0.26, can't recover backup.. When I try to restart the phone, it aways goes automacally for the recovery, I took the battery off but still nothing. Even pluging the charger, the phone turn on and goes to recovery..
So I'm here to ask: what should I try? I think if I install CWM via ODIN everything will be ok right? I can't do this right now cause i'm without my usb cable. What u guys know about this?
Thread moved to the Q & A section, post in the relevant sections next time.
