[Solved] Galaxy death after Froyo Flash

Hi to all,
i used this way to enter the download modus http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765703
it was the first time i could enter this modus. Then i tried to flash JPC firmware with odin. Something went wrong. Now my phone boots up (the animated "S" with sound), vibrate and the screen went black.
The touch controls working fine but the screen is still black and the phone vibrates sometimes.
Unfortunally i reach not the download or recovery modus.
What can i do, please help!
kind regards
srkonus

you have to get into the download mode
if you can not get into the download mode
then you are stuck
you can try to be lucky and see if you can reboot it into the ADB reboot download

Thanks for your answer, how made this with the adb reboot download? My Windows 7 does not see the phone.

I get this: error: device not found

You should get in to download mode because the s is after the download mode.
I never see the s when trying to get into download

That is my problem, i get into the download modus not yesterday, and today only one time.
I try this:
battery out and in, center button, vol up and power -> nothing
battery out and in, center button, vol down up and power -> nothing
battery out and in, vol down up, center button and power -> nothing
battery out and in, vol down down, center button and power -> nothing
I do not know how i went into the download mode nearly one hour before.
ADB and kies find not the phone :-(

1) Pull out battery.
2) Reinsert battery.
3) Press VOL DOWN - HOME - POWER and keep the 3 buttons pressed until you'll see a yellow image on the phone. You are in download mode!

If your Phone has no Problem with the 3-Button-Combo:
- Turn off your Phone
- Hold VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons
- While holding VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons press POWER Button until you reach Download-Mode
- Release all Buttons
Otherwise the only solution is to bring it back to Samsung. ;-)

How was the condition of your battery before you got into trouble. You think you have enough power? If not, let your phone rest for a while and try it again later. Make sure that when you get into download mode you have odin ready so you can flash new firmware immediately .

Nothing,
the only thing i can see is the white samsung galaxy letters, after that the phone reboots.

- Turn off your Phone
- Hold VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons
- While holding VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons press POWER Button until Display powers on then release only Power Button
- Hold VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons until you reach Download Mode
Could be a little tricky to get into download mode. ;-)

Yeah,
back to samsung...nice joke. I do not beliefe, that samsung will change the phone. It was rooted and i installed the modclock recovery before to backup the ROM.
Maybe the device was really warm from charging - is this the key?

i think your Flash was ok. You´ve only forgotten to do a Data Wipe / Factory Reset from Recovery.
Have a look at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769400
AFTER FLASHING TO JPC ITS NECESSARY TO DO A DATA/FACTORY RESET FROM RECOVERY (Volume up + Home + Power).
OTHERWISE YOUR PHONE WILL DO MYSTERIOUS THINGS!!!

Reconsider the advice of Arey. To go into download mode can be really tricky sometimes.

Maybe ur battery is drained get some one else to charge it for u

The battery is full

Not download mode but rather recovery. VOL UP + HOME + POWER hold till Samsung white writing appears then release.

#4 Make really sure u have all 3 buttons pressed at the same time.Wait for download mode

[Q] Stuck in Recovery mode

I have a Samsung Captivate (I897) but I accidentally installed the I9000 firmware on it. Now my home button acts like the back button, The 3 button combo doesn't work, and the back button doesn't work at all. I tried to get it to do SOMETHING and somehow I got it into recovery mode but now i cant get it out and get it to boot up. It shows the normal recovery mode options and i can scroll down and up but I can't select anything because it says use the "select" button but there is no "select" button on the I897. All I need is to get into download mode and i can probably fix it from there. I want to flash it back to factory settings so my fiance can use it. Can someone please help me? I've been searching the forums for days trying to find the same issue but to no avail.

What I9000 firmware? If it was a gingerbread build the button combo for download mode is vol down and power, otherwise it should be the same both volumes then plug in ausb cable... or make a jig.
And just for the hell of it try using the menu button to select something in recovery.

Holy F man you are the man!! i used the volume down and power button and its now in download mode. Now I can try to flash it back with Odin. Thank you soooooo much!!

ok so i tried that and now it wont even turn on at all. idk whats goin on with it. i may just have to send it in to samsung...

1 - turn phone off.
2 - hold down home button.
3 - whilst still holding down home button hold the power button down to turn phone on.
4 - when you see Samsung logo let go of the power button but keep holding the home button.
5 - when you see the recovery menu you can let go of the home button.
What did you do to the phone for this problem to occur?

ok this is new to me so once downloaded mdm file then what do i need to do.was doing nothing to phone when bootloop occured and wont go into recovery mode have tried many times.

Have you tried to boot the phone into Download mode?

phone is bricked help please

i was planning on flashing a custom rom on my galaxy s6 today but at work i watched a video on how to get twrp recovery, so i downloaded it on to my phone, followed every direction and step using flashify then when i installed twrp and rebooted my phone it got stuck at the boot load screen, i cant even go to recovery mode nor download mode, everytime i hold the power button and volume rockers it just cuts off and boots back to boot loop cuts off boot loop and so on, idk what to do can someone please help

Slow down, take your time. This is not a permi-brick. Just go back, start at step 1, and try again. There is hope. There must be a way to get into recovery.

I'm having the same exact issue, I'm able to get into download mode by holding volume up, home and power buttons. I'm downloading the stock firmware now and I'm going to try to flash it with odin to see if it works.

If you two can't get into download mode for whatever reason get odin to the point it says waiting for phone or connection or whatever it says then let it boot loop a couple times with the phone plugged in (preferably start from a powered off state). This might just have been lg but for some reason I remember odin rebooting my phone into download mode if the program was at that point.
*edit*
I feel like I wasn't clear enough. You want the tar ball loaded and hit start before you plug the phone in. I could be way off but it's worth a try.

Access perhaps soft-bricked phone

Hi, I need some help or guides on a problem I just got.
I have a rooted S3 LTE (I9305), which seems to be soft bricked, if I understand what I have read so far. I need to either get it to work again, or at least a way to access files, so I can extract some data from it.
The situation is as follows:
I came home the night between sunday and monday, from a holiday, on which I had used the phone to take a lot of photos. At the point where I entered my car, the phone was working. I used the GPS to take, where I parked my car. Switched off the screen, and drove home.
When I got home, I could see the screen was hanging at the boot logo. So it must have crashed and rebooted it self at one point - don't know when.
Tried to restart 4-5 times, but only got to the boot screen. Pulled the bat. but still the same.
Suddently at one point, I couldn't even get to the logo screen, instead it just shows white and black stripes across the screen.
If I'm lucky I can get into download mode, but only around every 10 time or so.
I managed to keep it in download mode at one point, and through Odin wanted to re-flash my device, but it failed saying it need a pit file.
So this is where I stand now. Is there a way to access the phone from my computer, so I could download the photos taken, or can I flash it without loosing any of the photos and if so how?

if you have a custom recovery installed you could maybe try to plug it in to a PC and mount the USB storage via the menu

Which menu are you thinking about? The PC doesn't recognize the phone, as a device. Can't find it anywhere. And in the download mode, I can't do anything on the phone, or at least it doesn't reacts.

Anyone? I'm a bit lost here

Do you have a custom recovery installed like Clockwork mod or TWRP recovery manager?? If you have you'll be able to access it by switching your phone off then holding power up + home + power until you see the boot animation

Offcause I forgot the phone at Work, so can't test to be sure. But if I recall correctly I have TWRP installed.
But don't think I can get into it. The only compination of buttons that I had success with, was volume down + home + power into the download mode, as I said. But that isn't even all the times I can get into that.
Update:
Yes, as I expected I couldn't start it with volumen up + home + power, all I get is the black and white stripes.
