HELP! Galaxy S Wont Start, no Download Mode, No Recovery Mode - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is my 1st post on the forum, I think that's someone can help me,
I have( had ) a Galaxy S with JVO firmware, and I tried to flash it with Odin, this is not the 1st time I do it, but this time I've got an error, so when verifying the TAR file used, I discovered that I used a Galaxy S2 firmware , so automatically I unplugged the cable, and removed the battery, and when I try to turn it on, or launch recovery mode, or even the download mode, nothing happen, and the worst thing ever is when I put it on the electricity sector, nothing happen, the screen steel black
Can any one help me please?

Oh dear?
Maybe you need to get a Download mode Jig?
someone else may be able to answer weather or not that will help.

Me too, I had the same issue few days ago, but I haven't tried the JIG thing yet. But having seen some doing it on Youtube, gave me hope.....

I sent mine off to Samsung, I blamed it on kies, because if it won't turn on, enter download nor recovery, theirs no way they can tell you've been tampering with it, so they fixed mine for free under warranty
A jig won't work if your phone won't turn on as its only for soft bricked phones where you see the phone, caution, and PC symbol, the only thing you can do is send it off for repair, I bought a jig for 9.99 and anticipated it till it arrived and didn't work, you need to send it off bud, theirs nothing you nor anyone else can do mate :-( sorry :-(

I just got the same problem too..
I don't know where to order JIG..
maybe I'll go for Samsung service center, but my phone not include warranty..

Try taking out the battery, press the download mode buttons and while pressing them, insert the battery.
Worked for me once, might work for you too

It should still be recognized in odin with that screen and flashable. Reflash with full battery and ensure file was okay and not corrupt.

Yeah if the com port is yellow in odin just try again (but right after you turn it on and connect it) I've been there before and its recoverable.

Unfortunately I did connect to odin ... But there was not yellow port... Simply odin didn't recognize...

Right after battery inserted? You might reinstall the drivers too? Keep trying. Clean the usb port on the phone, try a different odin etc.
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA Premium App

I now reinstalled the driver although It's already in my laptop.. so after that should I put the battery first or put it later after plug in to my laptop?

I don't think it's bricked... Pull the battery and wait for about 5 seconds and try holding the power button + home. U should be able to get to recovery mode.

How do i fix my Bricked phone !! URGENT

Hey guys, I'm having big problem and can't go to sleep
i tried flashing the new ROM (i've done it so many times that i wasn't scared of anything).... Rom installed the Kernel too and I cleaned cache after installation, but ! when i choose Restart Now option, it suddenly restarted (screen went black suddenly) and the BLANK___________________. :'(
Here are the things i did whole day :/
1-3Button's technique
2-Can't go in Download,Recovery Mode
3-Can't connect to PC
It's like a Plastic Toy now that has no functions
I don't even know what it is(Hard/Soft/Dead Bricked). I've read through web that it can b a SW/FW HangUp or Temporary Brick which can b fixed ?..
Please tell me how to fix this issue,I'm really nervous
Help would b appreciated...
-(sorry for bad eng-)

try this to see if your phone can be forced to boot up..
remove the battery from phone
connect the phone to pc, and when the pc beeps put the battery right away..
I tried it on my mini since it can't powered on a few days ago. and it worked.

Doesn't matter if it beeps or not actually, my PC didn't beep too when I plug the phone but I just put the battery back on and it booted.
I'm afraid your mini is indeed bricked.
You can try a USB jig or "Jtag (correct me if I'm wrong)..

Dude its expensive (about 150 $)
And it might not work . just send it to Samsung repair center and they will fix it for a cheaper price .
N.B : I did that , my phone got bricked too and as u can it is working .
Sent from my GT-S5570
To me, it looks like it needs to be sent back to Samsung. See if you can get it fixed under warranty, if not you'll have to pay. Good luck.

Hi dheeraj, is it possible that an empty or totally dead battery could prevent your phone from "memorizing" the flashing you do with Odin, so to send the device always in boot loop? I'm asking this since I'm having the same problem that the user who opened this thread has described, even if with a GT-S6500. It can only go into download mode, but not into recovery mode (could it be soft bricked?). I don't know what the previous owner did, but I'm trying to resurrect the phone. Thanks in advance for your help.

thought your problem got solved
no it cannot happen that without battery the memory would be washed out as it is written on a storage kind of device
what you can do is just flash a four package firmware through odin (phone, pda, csc etc. slots filled)
let the phone reboots on it own, after rebooting the mobile will automatically go into stock recovery and will do some processing and you would be done

Hard bricked mini with rom manager.

I accidentally flashed rom manager & its hard bricked my mini. Can't display nothing. What is the way forward because it's warranty expired?
I heard about usb jigs, but it's not available in my country. Please help.

Hit a dead end after several ATTEMPTS.
Does it boot on anything?
What happens when you plug your charger?
Sent from my device GT-S5570I in my own words
1
Try out three button combo home+vol down+power
2
Or try out usb jig, order from ebay or make one at home (YouTube it)
3
Search for jtag service in your country, get it jtag.
4
Samsung service centre!
The end. No more solutions!

It's not about how you brick it, it's about them trying to prove it.

It's probably a hard brick.... maybe you should look into JTAG
Wait for a second opinion though, I'm not 100% sure.
