try odin one click stock jf6 by designgears description. there are 3 ways to get in download mod. one should work for you if you follow to the letter.

With the phone off, hold the volume buttons down an plug the USB cable in. You should see some yellow sign/icon...that is download mode I believe.

[Q] Flashing Revolution firmware in Emergency Mode

Hi all,
My Revo stuck at boot looping same as many nice guys here. My phone is no root, no cwm. I've just changed some cdma settings for NAM & PRL by cdmaworkshop then reboot few times (by reset option in cdmaworkshop). And the last time, I disconnected it from cdmaworkshop and reboot by normal way so it stuck at boot looping with vibration. The only option I can get in is emergency mode for flashing firmware (VOLUME UP + POWER). I google in few hours and found out that there is no option for emergency mode flashing of LG Revolution up to now. Could anybody give me a hand for this situation. So much thanks in advance.
Here is my LG screen now:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

I was in the same position as you but was able to fix it
You want to follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1211295
Follow all the instructions but instead of using the drivers from the thread, use these:
http://s3.amazonaws.com/lgforum.com...inal/LG VZW_United_WHQL_v2.1.1.exe?1314733206
When you are in Emergency Mode, LGNPST will detect your phone as Unknown, this is ok. Just load the .dll from the thread and in my experience, it wanted to use Phonebook Recovery or something, so it would only let you load, .csv files. Write *.* in the file name, and you should be able to see all files, and click on your .tot firmware file. This took me around 3 tries, but it finally let me flash it and then the phone was back to normal

[Q] Bricked T-Mobile Galaxy Tab after failed ICS flash

Hi,
My problem is yesterday, I tried to upgrade my Tab from 2.3.4 OS to 4.0.4 OS using Odin v1.85 and aokp ICS rom. During the process, I realized that I hadn't recharged the tab to full battery (as I remember, it was around 30 - 50%). The upgrade failed and now my Tab is bricked.
I tried to connect it to main AC power, for several hours, it came up like below
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And no matter how I try to boot it up, using vol up/vol down + power button,...etc, it always kind of shutting down, battery icon disappears then after several hours, it turns back on again.
Any ideas? I really need your help

Can you try to enter into recovery mode or download mode? Try to enter to download mode and install stock rom from from this link. If you want install Cyanogenmod. Cyanogenmod is curently have version 4.2.2 and have so many things and you can install updates like piece of cake he said to you updates are available and you download and install it with no roblems. If you are interested for Cyanogenmod see on this Youtube channel how to install Cyanogenmod and root your tablet.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iI79j97R4qw

Thanks but somehow I let the battery drained to zero, then recharged it and connected to the PC, restored the tab normally through its factory mod. Again thank you!!

[Help] I just power off my phone for an usual reboot, now he won't start and keep...

Hello,
I'm kind in trouble now, i've just power off my phone because he won't receive text message ( happen often, even before i root it, need to reboot him and get my text message instantly. ), so i start the phone back using the following combo-key :
hold volume up + bixby + power
( I've rooted my phone using Odin, Magisk and Smali-patcher. )
But now my phone keep rebooting, showing this image, then the bootloader warning thing, then this image again :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And then, after maybe 1 min of waiting, it goes into downloading mode. Each time, no matter what i do, i know how to do the reboot key-combo because i've rooted my phone maybe 3 months ago and i've rebooted him a couple of time, but today this happen and so i'm actually lost and don't know what to do ...
Any help is welcome,
I hope you guys could help me,
Thanks a lot !
Edit : I could go in recovery mode too, but that's all. Recovery mode or infinite "downloading mode" message :crying:

Why are you using those keys to restart the phone? That key combination only leads to the Bootloader/Download screen that yo describe. You say you rooted the device months ago and surely you've rebooted since then, is the method you always use? I know this is a late response but this just caught my eye.
