I used clockwork mod and formatted all of the options including system and etc etc
UnBrickable mod is easier then 3 button fixes or jigs.. Simply remove the battery, replace the battery, plug into USB, then click the "Download Mode" button. After that, use a Heimdall One-Click to flash software. There's no fooling around with timing or trying to get the order correct, or anything... it just goes into download mode every time.
Just thought I'd put that in here. I like UBM, it's great.
I did the same, you found the solution?
I followed the same "idiot" guide of how to flash it into recovery or back to the stock version.
Screen at & t appears and restarts again and again.
I can't enter in the download mode. I tried all the combinations of the 3 buttons and nothing.
You could find a solution? help please..

You have a few options and these options are as much as we can help you here.
1) Keep trying the button combos. It just might work one of these times. If you ever get it into download mode then try to flash it back to stock immediately.
2) Buy a Jig. They are available for cheap and will probably help you out. They force your phone into download mode and will allow you to flash it then.
3) Do the unbrickable mod. This involves sending your phone off for a few days, spending some cash, and having it worked on. It will come back in working order and there are even ways to have the person who worked on it flash a custom rom for you.
These are your options. And honestly, more than telling you the above, I dont think there is much more help we can offer here.
EDIT: Holy hell I just realized this post is from April. I just wasted a few minutes typing all of that. Damn.

I was running CM7 nightly builds. I was attempting to switch to the stable CM7 build with an ODIN restore. I couldn't get ODIN to recognize my phone, and a forum thread said to try re-installing the update.zip file from the recovery boot. It got hung up trying to do that and upon reboot, it is now stuck on the startup screen. Can't get to recovery, can't do anything. Any thoughts?
Help is GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks!
have you pulled battery and started again? tried button combos? have you used odin since installing cm7? i believe it needs different drivers..... more info will get you more help. more reading will keep you out of trouble (mostly) i've never used cm7 so i can't help that much...
I have tried pulling the battery, running the battery to dead and then putting it on the charger, all the button combos.
I have not tried ODIN but thats because ODIN needs to be in download mode and I cant get into download mode. The only thing I can get to is the AT&T World Phone screen with the white background. I have done some google searching about getting stuck on the boot screen but none of the threads I have found have seemed to mot relate to my exact problem. I am currently looking into if this is the kind of problem that a jig would fix.
definitely sounds like a job for a jig.. it will force it into d/l mode as long as the bootloaders are not corrupted..... best of luck
if the bootloaders are corrupted, is there anything to do or is the phone just finished?
Jtag/unbrickable mod
I had the same loop yesterday doing something else, but i had the ATT boot loop and no button combos worked to get into DL mode. So I tried pulling the battery, then holding vol+/vol-, putting battery back in, and then plugging in usb cable. Went to DL mode. If that doesn't work, I'm sure a jig would.

Jtag should only be used for hard bricked phones. Since there is a sign of life, he can probably recover from this without the need of jtag.
Use a jig. It's the easiest way to get into dl mode. If you don't have one, you can make a crude one that will work until you can get a proper one ordered.

I can't seem to get the Update.zip to work and now my ds7 only shows the cwm rec boot loader. Pls hlp me. Thank you.
So i did some reading and what i did wrong was factory reset from the settings menu not cwm. No instructions were clear how to fix my mistake. Help would be awesome. Any help i could get can be rewarded money. cwm 3.0.2.0
OMG, i also did a factory reset and now it is stuck on cwm, can't even get into fastboot mode
GUYS, please help.. this is bad as I've been searching the forums for an answer and all i see is to try fastboot.. thanks in advance

Don't worry guys, I almost went crazy just now thinking mine was "bricked" as well when it really wasnt. Restore with the following method will fix it
DO NOT FORGET to press both volume + and volume - at the same time so that your computer will detect it as a NVFlash device and the nvflash method (with batch file) will pick it up as a driver and reflash your device to stock. I made that mistake as well
Okay, so I tried flashing Eaglesblood rom and everything went fine but not after I rebooted the system. It did reboot but it gets stuck on eaglesblood logo and then it turns off. I can't get into recovery mode, computer doesn't recognize it and I can't flash any thing to it. It's useless.
I can't seem to find a way out, I'm stuck! HELP!
If it doesn't get fixed, I might replace it with a new phone. (

Thanks for the rep! Finally unbricked my phone and it's up and running
Hey Guys,
A friend gave me his phone to repair. It is bricked, he installed an update (he said) and it didn't worked. Going into Recovery Mode I found out there is a Recovery installed, but the wrong. Too big for the screen, can't see any progress or something.
The main Problem: Since then the screen remains after starting with the Samsung Logo White.
Any help is great! I am usually not working with Samsung, but Sony.
I don't know how to install a different Recovery Mod in. Or how to fix the problem.
Thanks in Advance!
HMIT.

Thank you very much!
I hope that is the answer to all.
So now that I installed CWM, it was easier to move around and see what is happening.
Formating and Restoring failed.
Restore -> MD5 Checksum - MD5 Mismatch!
Formating -> Succesfull. Restart: Screen remains still white after the Samsung Logo.
Any help there?
Thank you!
EDIT: Meanwhile I installed Gingerbread 2.3.4 for GT-S5570. Now it loads till the Booting Screen, but it loops always. So after 10 minutes waiting.
Help needed urgently!
EDIT: Is very useful: http://www.redips.net/android/flashing-s5570/
Tested and the phone works now. Can be closed.

I'm happy to hear that your phone works now..
If you wanna flash/install an original samsung firmware (stock-rom), DON'T USE CWM, BUT USE ODIN v4.38 or v4.42 (for mini GT-S5570)
