I tried to root my G1 from this link..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442480
Made it through the first few steps well, until i finally began to upgrade the image dreaimg or w,e.. It failed on me & now i cannot leave the screen. I remove the battery & turn it on. but when i do it stays in the same spot.. I tried everything & need some help.. ]:
Here is a pic of the screen.. : http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/4355/picture001bk.jpg
Did it start updating, then stop in the middle of it? Did the phone turn off due to running out of battery during the flash? Did you format your card to FAT32, download the proper RC for the original sale location of your phone?
Try pulling the battery at, then removing your SD card, do a long format to FAT32 (whether it is or not) copy the dreamimg.nbh onto the SD card, put the SD card back in the phone, put the battery back in, put it on a charger not turned on for 30 minutes, then take it off the charger...
Now that you have done all that, try booting into boot loader again by holding down the camera and power button until it goes into that screen again and does it's thing.
If this doesn't work, well, good luck since I have no idea from there.
Yes i've tried all of that.. Once i remove my battery it turns on, but as soon as i put it on again it turns on & the same screen appears.. There nothing i can do to go back to the Home screen.. D':
I most likely made a mistake but now i cannot fix this! ]:
SOme onee! please help me.. ]:
Everyone continues to ignore my thread..
have you tried to reset within there by pressing Home+menu+end? ppl are not ignoring.. jus they dont kno how to help.. as the guy already gave ideas that im pretty sure everyone would have said

When does this screen appear? Instead of the G1 screen or after it? If after, hold down home+Power and get into recovery, try reflashing your rom.

That screen is the only thing that ever appears on my phone.. ]:I cant take that screen away like i want too.. So it appears instead of the G1 screen..
If that is the only screen that ever shows up, you very well may be bricked, I hate to say it.
It really sounds like during your flashing of the .nbh file it was disrupted for one reason or another, either the battery died or it was a corrupted file, so the only file left on the phone is the boot loader. Thus, it is the only thing that will show...
Of course, I am not 100% positive without knowing exactly what you did, not being able to mess with the phone myself, and so forth.
Some people have been able to bring phones back from the dead by getting lucky and being able to get ADB to work... try plugging the phone into your computer using a data cable and see if you can get any sort of ADB to work, perhaps seeing if you can get the stock HTC update program to recognize the phone and hopefully flash it into working.

So then is there anyway to restart the phone? Like a secret way? & when i connect my phone to the computer when its shut off, it appears on the computer but not completely.. it says that one of the files are not recognized. Damn, this is really a pain.. ]:
So, you cannot boot into recovery, correct? And have you tried to connect to your pc and use ADB?

Agreed.
You should read up tutorials on ADB and see if you can use ADB to access your phone. If you can, your phone can still be recovered.
If not - then yeah, brick.

for some reason i went to reboot my phone and it wontboot just hangs.. can boot to recovery and do a factory reset.. but still wont boot.
cannot boot to download mode with vol up keypad and power.. just continually reboots to the samsung white message and starts over.. any suggestions or should i just send it back?
got it working whey.. it wouldnt boot up to recovery.. got it to goto recovery during a boot loop by plugging in usb.. i think.. the only think i can think is that earlier today i replace the mms.apk and mms.odex with an earlier version from jf3.. didnt like that at all. but i didnt reboot till later.. this was to try and work around the messaging bug in jg1.. .since i had to reinstall i am happy to report as previously reported that the the csc from jff messaging works fine the the modem and core files from jg1.. (that is what i reflashed it too..)
[Q] Help! Think I bricked my phone!!
Flashed to WJG1
Started Odin,it started to do its thing.halfway through I got the USB disconnect sound.Odin stopped , I now have a green screen
And u cant boot it to either restore or download mode?

Remove battery! put it in again!
Start in download mode! (volume down+home+power)
and reflash!
Keeps on happening.Have tried WJG1 and WJG5.With WJG5 I thought it was going to work.Got 3/4 of the way then it disconnected.

Did you use the other 512.pit file? and did you check re-partition?
Make some screenshots!
Yes to both
Did you install the latest version of Kies? (just for the driver?)
And did you close kies before you started flashing?
I think its worked.
YESSSSS
Im on WJG5 ....shall I just leave it on that. I thought I would roll back to JG1 with r2, as I was having problems with it forever scanning the SD Card, and with MTP mode keep on flashing ...initializing.
Which it is doing right now
I have the latest version of Kies installed...and I never open it.
Edit: SHOULD I be able to roll back to an earlier firmware?

As far as i know you can flash whatever firmware you would like! the best option right now is to use JG5!
Correct me if i'm wrong!
Are you on WJG5?
Do you have any problems?
The MTP constantly initializing (Not sure thats a real problem as I turn it off and use mass storage, but it should work so I want it to)
The constant Media Scanning.
Doesnt feel particularly quick.
And with WJG1+r2 I could run scripts for lag and market and it was pretty quick.
Can I run the scripts with WJG5?? r2 made it nice and easy.

Yes i am on WJG5! you can root it and you can use the lagfix!
I am currently using it without the lagfix and it works great! no blackscreens whatsoever!
Question! did you remove the simcard and sd card when you where flashing with odin?
It shouldn't be scanning for media all the time! don't know whats wrong!
Yes I did.
Following a tutorial which says to uninstall Market from Applications.When I go to Applications(clicking Fliter>All) and bringing up Market there is no option to delete
Here mate, have a look at some suggestions.
And some other quick - you should have run kies before the flashing, so it would install all the drivers, it might be your problem.
Maybe a moderator can pin this, ot some other inbricking topic/guide?
Link to tutorial - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=725858
Yeah but I have flashed it about half a dozen times previous with no problems.
Well, I dont know what happened, but after setting up my phone pretty much as it was before I thought "I didnt do a factory reset after flashing the rom", so I did so.Rebooted,went to Market and all apps are showing
What does a factory format do??
I thought it would wipe everything off the phone?
After doing one on my newly flashed SGS, I had a look at the SD card and all the folders of games/programs were still there.
i was afraid too when i flashed with the latest firmware last week
odin did nothing, so after 10 mins i remove the usb cable and put it again
then restart computer and put the usb cable ... but the computer didn't see the phone
i turn off the phone, it turn on automaticaly with a nice logo with a phone and a computer... like the phone wana tell me : "You dumb idiot, you bricked me"
I was near to be killed (its my wifes mobile, not mine) but then i tried to return into download mode and it worked and lucky the computer saw the phone
ps: i did this night, when my wife was asleep, so she didn't noticed, but if she noticed or if it was bricked ... well i guess she would kicked my ass and i would be 500box poorer
I was at 2.1.1 Cognition and for some stupid reason went into ROM manager and tried to apply my original backup I did when I was just Rooted and on the stock software from ATT.
It got to the data partion and couldnt access it, rebooted and now I get force close errors when it boots. I can virtually do nothing cause the errors just come one after another.
I tried to go into download mode so I could use ODIN and start over and it will NOT go in download mode. I am holding the vol up and down and then pressing power. I am holding all three until the screen goes black twice then letting go of the power. It just goes back to the little circle in the middle meaning its charging.
I am hosed....please help me get this fixed!
The force closes comes from within android...its boots up but is unusable.

First of all, for God's sake please post on the RIGHT AREA. This is not develpoment....the mods are tired of saying the same thing and I dont see why is this so hard to understand.
Turn the phone off then Hold Vol Up and Down then plug the usb while holding those.
That is the way mine goes into download mode.
My bad, feel free to move it.
As I posted, I am doing that and cant get into download mode....please help and again sorry for posting to the wrong area. Im kinda freaking out.
Appologies again, I didnt read your post well.
I tried it the way you stated as well and it goes to the charging screen only.
When I post in the future I will pay more attention to where I post, I understand the frustration.
I cant go into recovery or download either one. Am I bricked? I could really, really use some help. I know I screwed it up and it was a great lession...I just dont want it to be a costly one.
1st question - were you able to get into either download mode or recovery mode via the button combos before you installed cognition?
2nd - if you let it boot up will it boot all the way to the lock screen?
1) Yes I was able to get into download mode and recovery mode before I screwed up.
2) Yes, I can get all the way to the lock screen and if i catch it just right I can navigate the os but it is almost impossible.
The backup from within ROM Manager I applied was back to the original OS that came on the phone that was rooted and had rom manager on it.
I would bet that whatever files allow you to get into download mode, etc are gone or something along those lines.
I am about to freak out.
have you tried pulling your battery, sim card, and any external sd card, let the phone set for a minute, then put back only the battery and then try either the recovery or download button combo?
I am able to get all the way to about phone and here is what it says. I have a combination of mess....man I screwed up royally.

Firmware Version
2.1 -Update 1
Again, I was on 2.1.2 Cognition and went through ROM manager and applied a backup which was a snapshot of my phone the day I got it, rooted it, and added ROM Manager. Which isnt there now.
I know what I did was really stupid, I know what I should have done. I would just really appreciate any help getting this back or getting it to a point that I could send it back and not get charged for it. I got it from amazon. Do you even think they would look at the file system? I am within my 30 day window.
Yes, it boots up normally meaning not into download or recovery mode. The specific errors I am getting in the os are as follows:
The process android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly and i have to click force close. I do get a few others about browser, phone, gallery, calendar, but in the end the media one is the one that comes up over and over. Since I can get this far surely there is a way to get me back to a workable state that I can fix it.
If not, I wonder if I could connect via usb and try to wipe every file off the darn thing and send it back? Obviously I would like to avoid that but I am running out of options and frankly this is over my head.
I dont think your trying the download mode correctly with the battery out. You need to take your battery out, put the battery back into the phone, hold down BOTH the volume up and down keys at the same time by pushing in the middle of the keys and then plug the usb into your phone. This works every time.
I can get into the phones Hard drive via USB and see the folders. I see .img files within clockwork that were suppose to have applied, not that it it matters.
I wonder if I could delete anything that isnt part of the stock image and send it back and just not be an idiot again? I really dont want to do that but I dont know what to do.
I found this log file on the device and the last line was the error that I got right before it rebooted and I was hosed:
Can't mount /data/!
Failure at line 2:
restore_rom /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/original boot system data cache sd-ext
aNdroidnut I tried it exactly as described and all I get is the lines in a circle stating that its charging then the battery charging. I have tired it the way you said and the way I had done it all the other times.
I think the problem is i have an incomplete OS since it failed in the restore process within ROM Manager because I never should have done it that way.
If you were able to get into download via button combo before you should be able to do it now with after pulling your battery, sim card and external sd card as I mentioned before.

If you can get to this point you are not bricked and can recover. I am guessing you are connected to your computer in usb debuggin mode -- this is good as there is another way to get into download mode.
use oden3 one click here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
use download method one in the odin3 instructions if you can get connected to your computer in usb debugging mode. use download method 3 if you can get into download mode via the button combo after a battery pull
i think you failed at reading the warning:
disable the lagfix before trying to use clockwork
Are you trying this with Odin already open?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
When I try what everybody else explains I too just go back to the loading circle. Then it just goes right back to my charging screen. I figured this method out by mere chance one night when tinkering. I haven't seen it posted anywhere, so hopefully this is what you need:
1) open odin
2) pull battery, sdcard, and sim card
3) plugin usb to phone and computer(NO BATTERY YET)
4) hold down vol up and vol down(NO POWER BUTTON)
5) place battery into the phone
This works every time for me no exceptions.
Hope this helps,

OK, I have made progress thanks to the great tools these guys have and your help!
I am shaking as I type this (yea i know its just a phone). I was able via Odin to do a master clear. It rebooted and now I get into the OS and get NO errors. It seems fine but will not go into download mode no matter what I do and I have gone into it many times in the past. I went from stock (via Odin) to Cognition several times initially to really understand the process. I never had problems getting into download or recovery.
I really think, with you guys help, Im going to be ok here. I saw where you wanted me to do method 3. I have tried method 3 many times and method 2 many times.
Since I am able to get it to boot error free I was considering unrooting, rooting, downloading ROM Manager and trying to put Cognition 2.1.2 on it via Rom Manager. BUT before I do that I want advice if you would. Obviously following what I thought got me to this point to start with.
Today i run into a problem which was caused bay i think wrong selection of cf root (2e recovery fix).
My problem is next.
I can't get pass first boot screen (not the S logo, the one before it) and at that point phone starts to vibrate (1x vibrate....pause..... 3xfast vibrate).
Cant get into download or recovery mode, adb not working either.
Please help.
cant get to recovery or download cause you dont have it or case its not working?
maybe you can try test jig from this forum seems to work for most people in your predicament.
Cant get in recovery or download cuz they dont work, I had them earlier today but now i just cant get in them.
Can you clarify a jig test which u mentioned.

2 bad i dont have materials to build that
Does that mean that my only solution i to get to the store so they repair it.?
looks that way. all the things you need to make it are freely available. Its your choice not sure how samsung will deal with phone being tampered with and warranty issues and how much it will cost to fix but i guess you will find out. Good luck.
There are reports that pulling the battery out and holding power, home button and volume down while inserting battery works it may take a few goes but its worth a try. Im guessing odin wont reconize phone either? your phones not bricked so thats one good thing.
I managed to get in forced upload mode.
Odin recognizes phone, but when i try to flash it, it just stuck at setup connection.

Is there a way to boot from the external sdcard without dismantling the phone and finding the strap?
Thanks!
Does the phone power on at all? Can you get into download mode or recovery? Also, everyone is going to want know how did you hard brick it, since your phone might be the first?
How i hard bricked my G900A
Well, i was using EFS Pro to backup my phone.
Everything went fine.
Afterwards i did a system + boot install from G900M so i could have it in my language. Went fine also.
I managed to save all stuff.
Then i reflashed to factory to restore the phone and wanted to check if my backups were fine.
But i forgot to uncheck the all partitions and when it started to flash cache it got stucked. Nothing works anymore.
Now phone is a total brick.
I managed to make a sdcard for recovery, but phone will not boot from the sd.

USB jig maybe?
The Gods Approve This Post, From The Ghost Of Sparta's S5 active.
USB jig should put you in download mode, and you could reflash whatever, or take out the battery, put it back in. Then put your USB cable in and try to go into recovery mode. Try doing it all at the same time, USB cable, and the recovery mode/download mode.
I do not think you are understanding.
I have a jig in my pocket alread for some years, this is NOT the problem.
Supose i did a nand erase, so there is nothing to boot from. Flash or Bios is BLANK, Gone, Kaput!
So i need to boot either from the USB or from the extSd.
I'm trying to find a solution for this, and may help all.
Please don't say to me to take the phone to repair... because i am the repair man.

No one has made a debrick image yet for this phone, because almost no one has hard bricked. Unless you somehow create a debrick.img image for your sdcard yourself, then you are pretty much out of luck.
It is NOT hard bricked if it powers on, soft brick is what it is. If you can use the jiig and it gets into download mode, you can recover. Looks as if you have a corrupt bootloader, does ODIN see the device at all?
I am having some Soft brick issues. I have tried multiple versions of ODIN and Kies. I have even tried to update from the stock recovery mode in the phone from the exsdcard. nothing seems to work.
Odin only gets so far then tells me it failed. tried flashing stock and others. Bunked up my phone good i think.
Any Help?
is there a firmware update that I can apply from the exsdcard via the recovery mode? I get to the Samsung Galaxy S5 screen then it sits there. even let it sit over night to see if it just needed extra time.
I have been using the USB cable that came with the phone.
Reading through the XDA portal posts, I did see this solution. Not for our S5, but supposedly this method should work for most phones. Worth taking a look at anyway just to find out. Maybe someone could make it work.

I guess I'm soft-bricked by everyone's definition.
I have an att s5 g900a. Towelroot, safestrap, backed up to extSD, DLed the Nuclearfallout rom from the s5 att development forums, moved it to extSD(I moved it twice I think, because I didn't unzip one beforehand.) When I needed to boot from ext sd after wiping all data, I accidentally just "booted system" I believe. I'm stuck in a bootloop, but I can get into recovery and download mode. Admittedly, I'ma n00b. This is my first root, and everything else. In recovery mode, I can get into a bunch of stuff, but nothing does anything. nothing. I can get into DL mode. It just says downloading from source I think. Anyone know how I can even get my backup back on there? If I can learn that, I can try to get some custom roms myself afterward. I hope this is a good place to put this question, because I have been having a hell of a time even searching for my question. It could be that the answers aren't out there yet, but I was thinking maybe I don't know some of the jargon to ask my question correctly. If anyone has any questions, I can try and answer, but I don't know how much help i'll be. Here's a few pieces of info that I thought might help:
It is the ATT G900A, but I paid it in full as a GO phone up front, and switched it to straight talk after my first month.
It's possible that the 2nd Nuclearfallout was still zipped as well.
I made 2 backups with safestrap, and saved them to extSD. They were rooted and unlocked when I made them.(Leads me to think it's possible to get some program, script, or something to boot into my backup.
I literally clicked on every single thing in recovery mode. They all just took me to .__// or whatever it shows at the bottom of each folder stack. If it isn't there, DL mode is my only bet right?
Thanks for the help if you got it folks!!!

When in safestrap and ready to wipe did you check all the boxes?? By the way you are NOT in a hard brick if that was the case you'd not be able to get into Download or stock recovery. Hard brick are black screen with no action at all when pressing buttons. Basically a paperweight and worthless.

The reason Odin doesn't recognize your phone is because you didn't have developer options open and debugging selected. when you boot SafeStrap screen doesn't come up? You don't try to get into recovery by the traditional method that's just stock recovery which won't do you any good

trying this now, hope it works! thanks so much for posting this.
UPDATE: IT WORKS!!! I was afraid my device was too far gone because there was no activity for a bit and it seemed like the USB was connecting and disconnecting over and over again... with the >Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008< listed in the device manager, then BOOM download mode! Thanks again!

Hello! I'm having similar issues...Could you please DETAIL the procedure you used to rescue your device?
I've downloaded the .rar and have the file ready to go but not sure of the steps to "install".
I know how to flash, recover, etc... but not sure what this particular process is.
PLEASE EXPLAIN!
THANK YOU!
