Hi all,
I just got my Galaxy S a few days ago and am trying to flash to JM5 using Odin.
I followed an Odin tutorial and selected the CODE, MODEM and CSC files, as well as the .PIT file. I then removed my SDcard and SIM from the phone and powered on in download mode and connected USB. When the COM light was lit in Odin I pressed start but it seems to have got stuck and is not flashing (see screenshot). There is no progress bar in Odin and there is no blue progress bar on my phone. I daren't disconnect the USB or turn the device off for fear of bricking it. Really don't know what to do.
If anybody can help or offer any suggestions I would be VERY gratefull, really worried here! TIA!
you will need to remove battery and reboot... it is already hosed if it has hung.. try a different port on the computer (reboot that also)..
Had this Problem too some days ago.
I pulled the battery out rebootet pc and tried again.
What i noticed, when Kies was opend i wasn't able to flash, when i closed it, it worked.
Furtermore i read that there are more ppl having problems in flashing JM5 dunno why....
Well after 2 or 3 tries it worked for me.
Thanks for the replies, tried what you suggested and removed battery, rebooted and tried again and, it worked! I think it might have been Kies as Kryston said.
Anyway, so glad my new Galaxy S isn't just an expensive paperweight! Thanks for the help!
Thanks in advance for any response!
The followings are my phone's symthoms:
1. My phone WAS FANTASTIC until I updated new Darky extreme version 9.2 (upgrade from 9.0)
2. I degraded it to the stock rom with Ryan's OLFG -> Working very well...
3. Until the phone was restarted. The phone was still working however
4. IT BECAME FREEZING. I couldnt scroll, couldnt touch the screen, or the phone response was like 5 mins later for each touch.
5. I followed instructions on the internet to flash with stock rom (JM8) and upgraded it to JPO, and the result is
6. THE PHONE COULDNT BE BOOTED at the Galaxy logo.
7. I tried to flash the phone over and over with different stock roms using ODIN 1.3 (with well understanding about repartition and PIT)
8. NOW, my phone is still able to access the download mode, but my PC CANNT SEE THE PHONE DRIVER ANYMORE(tested on 3 other laptops with the same result)
9. Reinstall USB drivers like 20 times, the results have been the same.
TO me this should be a phone death. Im gonna purchase the new Galaxy S 2
HOWEVER, If there is anyway to revive my phone back to normal (Cuz I wanna get some important data in the internal card), I will not only send a big gratitude but some DONATE as well.
Thanks.
so you put the phone in download mode first... then you attach the USB ???
Does anything happen when your in Odin ?? does it not say connected or anything ??
and have you tried doing a factory reset in recovery mode ??
aslong as your phone can go into download mode there is still hope so dont give up on it just yet
U obv have samsung kies right?. Go on processes on ur pc ctrl alt del n kill the kiestrayagent process

Surely I killed KS before doing ODIN. The PC(s) said it was Unknown device.
My phone was on when android 2.1 installed (but freezing, not just lagging .... completely freezing on the home screen) and would not boot if i installed 2.2
Sigh....
Thanks for your replies
The PC(s) said it was Unknown device.
Thats generally a USB /driver/windows problem .
You installed deadlys rom and it should still be recoverable even from that .
Is your phone picked up via Kies phone/Odin will need Kies installed .
I would have flashed back to a clean copy of Eclair first off to get the phone working .
jje
Both Kies and Odin could not see my phone... I killed Kies process before doing Odin, but the result was still a sadness.
Hi guys,
I think I possibly screwed up my wounderful sgs i9000 european edition
First of all I have to tell you how I came to this...
A long long time ago, today afternoon 17 o'clock european time I wanted to test the great CM7 and so I did, of course first I failed to flash it but then it worked. The phone worked fine but there came the point when I wanted to use samsung's firmware again, cause it has the apps I love.
So I just connected my phone with Odin and tried to flash a original Firmware, I think it was JS7. It worked, but then my phone didnt boot after the flash.
So I managed to make the phone boot into download mode, what is the only thing that works at the moment.
So I connected it again and tried to flash my phone one more time but then it didnt work
Odin stuck at the line "set pit-file" or somethin like that.
Well. What could I do? Reconnect and try to reflash and it doesnt work again
Do you know, guys, what I could do? I need my phone every day but atm it cant be flashed
Now I tried to reflash it again and I stuck at the line "SetupConnection.."
Maybe I should try to flash another kernel and try to flash a custom rom trough CWM? Maybe that would be the key for me?
My phone stuck at "SetupConnection.." since 10 minutes or so
PLS help me
best regards,
alex
is recovery mode working ?? if so do a full factory reset.
Get your self a firmware with all 3 files and PIT. something old like JM8 or even back to eclair.. This should contain the dbdata which ive had trouble with in the past.
When you have all that, connect your phone to odin and try again, Make sure kies IS NOT running (even in the icon tray) and make sure your drivers are upto date.
If download mode works, your phone will survive. As for Odin sticking on 'Setup Connection' That's something to do with the phone connecting to the PC.. Maybe try another USB port, or like mentioned previously, Kies running or out of date drivers ????
Anyway try the above steps. and post back your results.
Oh dont forget to make sure RE-PARTITION is CHECKED when your using Odin.
well, thank you very much for the useful information
at first I tried to flash my phone at my laptop, then on a pc, but it just didnt work
but now I 'm succefully flashing it again trough my laptop and hopefully it will work again
And yeah, DL Mode works fine, but nothing other
Well, seems to be that my phone just was flashed succefully
Damn, I was so scared that I have to return the phone to the reseller
Wonderful, it boots again
I wont take it easy as before with the flashing.
Sorry for the trouble created by me
And thanks again
gn8 (from my time zone) and best regards

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~!
updated my galaxy to gingerbread 2.3.3 and was trying to root it via odin (my first attempt btw so all responses in ideot proof language please) which crashed part way through the flash and was left with a screen showing the phone ....... pc icon,
managed to get the phone into download mode and tryed to reflash following a few of the posts on here about bricked and part bricked phones and at one stage reflashed the pit file wich failed i am now left with a phone that wont do anything except lights up the two buttons on the front, no download mode no recovery mode, if i power off they go off and if i press them they light back up so the switchs seem to work.
the phone is not recognised by kies or my computer on the pc but is recognised by odin and loads up the drivers when plugged in and shows a sucessfull pass update if i flash a new pit pda or csc file but fails on the phone one constantly.
original firmware was
pda:i9000 bujv9
phone:i9000 bujv3
csc:i9000 gvodjv5
