Hi Experts,
I am from Singapore and i have a problem with my SGS and i hope someone here from XDA can help me.
I have been flashing and trying the firmwares here but then i encountered an issue, my SGS is not completely booting and after the samsung logo i will only receive vibrations from my phone.
What i did is, i went to the download mode and used this once click but i did not noticed that this is for CAPTIVATE ONLY!!!
Now my phone is stocked in AT&T logo, just looping back and forth.. i cant even go to DOWNLOAD mode and when i plug it in USB my phone turns off..
Please EXPERTS, need your help..
Thanks in advance

Hi all,
Im facing a serious problem. Well not so serious that my phone doesnt work but its pretty bad.
I have an international i9000 which i purchased in the UAE. I accidently flashed the stupid AT&T Captivate ROM without checking up on it and it got stuck on the AT&T loop. I managed to get into download mode via the USB Jig (thanks guys for that you saved my ass with that jig) but now everytime i turn the phone on i get random pixels covering the screen like an old broken television before the samsung logo. after that it boots normally.
also, before i was able to access the download mode via the 3 button combo and the upgrade mode in the same way. since i screwed up with the at&t rom it doesnt work anymore.
is there any way i can fix these two things? bare in mind i have reinstalled many roms wiped all caches and sd cards and i am now running darkys rom with these problems still existing.
Please help!!
oh another symptom ive noticed
when i plug the charger cable in or the usb data cable in when the phone is off i dont get a battery sign for when the phone is charging!
anyone out there that faces the same problem?
any help please? im desperate its driving me crazy ><
its ok everyone!
and heres how to fix it!
flash it to 2.1 from the XWJG5 with all three parts in the rom (its on samfirmware)
and make sure in Odin you click
clear phone efs
and
update phone bootloader
and next thing you know ure three button combo is working ure funny colours are gone and you have the battery charging logo again! woooo!
PLEASE PLEASE HELP
Ok so my phone is rooted, i installed anim mod and when i was installing one of the mods from the app i had to reboot. i rebooted but the phone loaded up as far as the Galaxy S logo and then went black and the lights of the buttons stayed on.
Ok so i could get into the recovery mode, but i tried all the options there tried clearing everything and it said it did but everytime i rebooted same thing kept happening.
So finally after freaking out i got on youtube and found a video called "How To Restore The Samsung Captivate To Factory Firmware With Odin3 One Click Downloader". not realising captivate isnt exactly the same phone as gt i9000. (sorry cant post the link)
I downloaded the drivers and started using odin3 one click downloader. so i got into download mode then plugged in usb and done the fix but...
Now im stuck with a screen flashing saying "at&t world phone" and neither the recovery mode or download mode will work at all i tried numerous times.
Experts please i would be so grateful if you could help me out
also my warranty is obv void now im guessing, is there a way of paying samsung to get it fixed or do i need a warranty or can i buy a warranty??
Thanks guys

Can we presume that you do know how to access download mode ??
and you have followed the instructions for download recovery with the jig .
If so and it fails you need a Samsung Service Centre .

Hi,
So ive searched around and couldent find any thing that directly relates to this problem.
I did a factory reset because i had no marketplace and i figured it would give me a marketplace
And after i did that, It just hung on the Galaxy S with all of the colours and sound. and it vibrates. basically 1, then 3 seconds later 3 quick ones.
I did use Odin3 1.3 but i could of used the complete wrong file.
When on the recovery screen it says Android System Recovery <2e> in blue writing. Under that it says Samsung Recovery Utils For BML -
I can still get into download & Recovery mode. I just dont know where to go from here. Anyone who can help would be greatly appreciated.
edit- Now its just sitting on the white Galaxy S GT-i9000 screen...
Im happy do donate to someone if they can help me fix this.
Try flashing the ezbase rom forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991792 that sgould get you back up and running

Ok, Thanks for your help Guys. Ive got it to boot now, Only it says its a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant with IT&T. Oh and the headphones dont work with this firmware, & the phone turns itself off whenever i plug in the USB Or Charger.
Im good with computers, But not with phones (yet) ,
So if any one could leave me some detailed instructions would be great.
Its got Eclair on it.
Think I have bricked my Tab - HELP
Just got myself a Tab P1000. I try updating software using Odin3.
I think i have misused the wrong firmware not for P1000 (stupid), when Odin3 is running gonna finish, it showed FAIL! So i disconnected my GT although the download mode still running.....(stupid again) n I manually off my GT by continuing pressing power button wished to reflash by proper firmware.
As i reconnected it to pc again, although i tried to turned it into download mode again from off mode and i failed, Odin still can detect it. As i tried to use proper firmware to flash it, when it gonna finished, it showed FAIL again!
Now the tab screen turned off and it won't turn on. I tried to turn it into download mode or recovery mode but it couldn't be. I think my wrongly flash has made the buttons all mess up their function. All I have is the LED light on permentanly. If I hold the power button for 10 secs, the LED goes off for 3 secs and then comes on again.
Can anyone help me sort this? Any suggestion pls? Urgent!
Thanks a lot!
What firmware did you flash? I only ask because I know I once flashed an I9000 bootloader on my Captivate and it changed my download & recovery combo to I9000's however they still worked once I used the proper combo (I know extremely lucky)
If bootloaders have been wiped and replaced with wrong bootloaders then its back to samsung with your tab for (hopefully) warranty repair...
Send back to samsung is my last choice, beside this there is no more solution??
my tab it was in same condition, check this forum and you will find solution. i give you what it works for me.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081800
good luck!!!
Dude!! It is worked!!!!
OMG DUDE IT IS REALLY WORKED!!!
Once i really think my GT have to send back to samsung...... but i have the last try of your suggestion, IT IS WORKED!!!
IT IS SO AMAZING N UNBELIEVABLE!!!
Thanks alot dude!!! You save my SGT!!! n my pocket!!! Thanks~
This solution is really useful n amazing!!
Any1 has same situation can try this!
Thanks again dude~!
Hello everyone.
Few days ago i bought SGS and i tried to change the ROM in it. I've successfully rooted the phone and installed ClockWorkMod Recovery Console. When i tried to install CyanogenMod 9 through Odin it failed. After a couple of tries i wasn't able to Turn my phone at all. Now the problem is that my SGS won't start up, and I do not mean bootloop. It doesn't matter if I hold the power button or 3-buttons combo for Download/Recovery mode. It doesn't even light up at all. The Buttons won't light up too. I don't know if it is still possible to repair my SGS I already ordered an USB unbrick jig. Maybe that will help. Can anyone help me with this issue? I would be grateful for every tip.
Looking forward for hearing from You guys.
P.S. Is there any chance it's a battery fault?

1 try it with another battery:ask your friends if they know someone with galaxy s, scl or s plus
2 u would have flashed via recovery, not using odin.. if your phone starts remember it for the next time
3 now i can't remember where but there is a member or a team who unbrick galaxy s, splus, s2.. try to find them out and contact them if it does not start.. but i think it isn't a battery problem

1. I already tried, it doesn't change anything. Still dead.
2. The thing is, I don't really remember if i used Odin or recovery xD I've done too much installs/updates/operations with this phone to remember xD
3. I'll search, thank You.
If you tried to flash cyanogenmod via Odin, then you messed up pretty badly. Use the USB jig, it might help.
