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.

[Q] Bricked Galaxy Mini

Hi, I live in Egypt for a while and I bought last month a Mini. Everything was going just fine, I was using Odin many times to try new roms, and CWM Recovery to give a try to custom roms, without problems. Yesterday morning I flashed my device with the 2.3.6 rom that I found on this forum, apparently made for Latin America. Since that moment, my mobile is on boot loop, i can't do anything, I only can access downloading mode, I tried to reflash gingerbread 2.3.4, and2.3.5, it goes well, Odin gives me the PASS message, but still my mobile is forever rebooting at Samsung logo. I can't access recovery.
What to do? Is it bricked and do I have to send it to Samsung Center or is there hope to fix it by myself?
Thank you for any help...
Yohan

u cant even enter recovery?if u can,just wipe cache and data..

Just remove the battery and stop your phone.
Put the battery in again.
Go to recovery mode by pressing Home + Power button at the same time.
In the reocevey choose wipe data/factory reset option.
Reboot your device after you are done.
You mobile will boot up fine.

Thank you for your answers but I wanna insists on a point: I can't access recovery at all, the phone show me the samsung logo for about half a second then restarts, and is looping in this state. No recovery, only downloading mode and RAMDUMP Mode (ARM9 mode) & Emergency Dload Mode (ARM9 Mode). Nothing else is avalaible.
Helppp

hey man i've already had that problem..coz i flash 2.3.6 and encountered same problem but i manage to fix it.. you need to enter recovery mode... Note: you need to hold the home & power button and wait for the samsung logo to flash TWICE (2X),when the 2nd logo flash, just realease the buttons and your on recovery mode.just wipe/ data reset.. right now im using Ginger bread 2.3.6JKVT and its rooted also.

No, I can't access recovery sorry.

Connect your phone to your laptop.
Use ADB
Type this :
adb shell reboot recovery
That will take you to download mode,then you can flash rom again. It would be easier if you have a CWM installed

If you can't access recovery either falsh CWM recovery or Flash another firmware from Download mode. If you want to flash CWM recovery just follow the link below for Galaxy Mini and search CWM recovery.

I tried many times, since i have this problem, to flash and reflash, official roms, CWR, but nothing works, setup goes fine according to Odin, but still have the problem on my phone, still only downloading mode works, and still a flashing screen, just during the samsung logo.

No one can help me with my mobile???

did you wait for the samsumg logo to flash tiwce while holding the combo key? you see when im installing firmware using odin my laptop turn off coz i dont have a battery i thought my mini was brick because the process was not finish,so what happen i tried to acces recovery mode its only shows a computer icon & phone icon. but i manage to fix the problem i go to download mode and flash again another firmware. and everything goes fine..so how come that you cant access recorvery...i would suggest that you flash a firmware with 4 parts not a single package.

just try this www*mediafire*com/?br3r8fod5g3vud4 flash this firmware with Odin this will surely work please replace * with . brace my post count is not enough to post outside link

As long as you can enter download mode... you are safe. If you can... just flash it back with Odin.

i had a same problem too.
my phone cannot power on, and ONLY download mode only working.
i flashed it for so many time too, and it doesn't seem to fix the problem.
so any fix on this ?

To ybregeon and Tre3,
I had the exact same issue, only Download Mode and RAM Dump, but could not enter recovery mode. Tried flashing many ROMs, oneclick unbrick, Heimdall recovery etc. but still no solutions available, I tried many-many tricks with no luck. So I went to Samsung Service Center, and it turned out that the problem is in the mainboard. It took me one night before Samsung replaced the mainboard from my phone and it's been working well since. All free of charge.
I hope your warranty is still valid. Good luck.

Galaxy Note stuck at Samsung logo after automatic update..PLEASE HELP..!!

Hi guys,
First of all m a noob here and got here after doing alot opf research on google but have not find any solution yet. I have got a major issue with Galaxy note, never been rooted.
So I have been using ICS on my Galaxy Note for almost a month now, and a week ago, I saw a message telling me that an update had been downloaded and the phone would be rebooted to install the update.
I clicked the OK button in the dialog box, and my phone did reboot but is now stuck at the flashing Samsung logo (after the initial musical animation, which incidentally was terminated midway).The phone got quite hot after about 20 minutes, so I switched it off by pressing the power button. Then I switched it back on after a while, and it was stuck at the flashing Samsung logo. N now its stuck there..
Restart does not work...
Recharging does not work...
Battery swap does not work..
I contacted the service center, they say they will flash the firmware but all the data will be lost and also they are not taking this in WARRNTY.
Can anyone help me with this please.. its been dead for a week now.
sorry for bad english

re:
Also tried POWER OFF+VOL UP+HOME .. a android green logo comes up. but again phones goes to samsung logo and stucks...
however,POWER OFF+VOL DOWN+HOME button gets me to a yello triangle logo and asks if you want to install custom rom...
Please help me guys...!!

^^
where you using the stock kernel itself on ICS?
do the latter..
boot to download mode, then try to flash your phone back to GB using PC ODIN. Once it's in stock GB, work your way up again to ICS. And oh by the way.. sorry to tell you this, but I don't think you can recover back your data after since this process will erase everything on your phone.

Ok, Thanks again John.
i have i more doubt. The stock rom thread says "Install Kies on your computer, connect your phone and make sure that all the drivers installed correctly". i have installed kies but when i connect my phone to it, it gives me Mtb driver bot installed properly error.. would it create a problem?

Yes it would.. try to completely uninstall and reinstall Kies and try later on, to plug your phone again.

i9001 bricked?

Hi guys, i gonna tell you about how my i9001 was stuck in a bootloop. Maybe you could help me. I'm sick of it.
Cause: I installed cm10 and cwm5 or 6 as recovery and upgrade my device using Ota Updater. When I restarted my i9001, it got stuck in a bootloop.
What my i9001 can display: It can access to rampdump mode and download mode. In case I try to turn on my i9001 or access to recovery mode the Samsung logo/word is shown twice and stops showing anything else. It often gets stuck showing the typical grey battery flat (with a loading stopped) and the black screen alternately. This is caused when I a disconnect the USB cable from my computer/laptop.
Attempts: i've tried everything except for the right solution. Lots of forum threads and nothing works for me. I've tried:
1.- Boot_loader for device boot.
2.- I've flashed an stock rom: XXKQP, and 2 more: BVKPC y XXKQ1. Each one are official.
3.- And then recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4 and -6.0.1.2.
4.- I've tried, then, flashing feamodrecovery 1.2.
5.- Nothing works for me.
I've been using Odin 4.43. AriesVE in OPS section and when flashing these roms: one package. For recovery packages: one package and pda (I tried these two options).
I can't reach at recovery mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Greetings!

What happens when you try to format data from recovery...?
If you get some errors, write them here...
If everything goes well, then it is not what im expecting (in that case problem is probably easier to solve)...

stepie22, thank you for your help. Nothing worked for me.
First link: another typical manual for installing a stock rom via Odin. During the process my device powered off. It was supposed to reboot. After the process ended, i disconnected it from PC and its screen showed a grey empty battery (with a loading in the middle) and word "Samsung" alternatively.
Second link: this was the solution for my first brick. Then, my device showed this yellow triangle. This second time is annoying me. I haven't found any solution to change, at least, the behaviour of my device.
Any other different solution? Thnks guys.

See this ... if that is the triangle, find that part on the wiki page.

Maybe your device got the eMMC Bug?
Normally your Device would be hardbricked if you "over" flashed.
If nothing works out try this:
Have a look in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224029
Download CWM Recovery 6.0.2.8 ODIN Package and flash it in "Download Mode" the regular way (AriesVE.ops and onepackage).
Then maybe you are able to enter Recovery Mode again...
This might be not your problem, but you could give it a try:

The imaged you linked is considered a download mode, you should be able to flash from it.
That being said, the error you got often means your internal memory is dead. Which also means that you can't get what was on it (Think of it as a hard drive that just died). Your best bet after trying to flash stock would be to partition an SD card and run from it (there's a guide on how to do it on here).

You gotta do some basic research. Here's the stock ROM (without bootloaders): http://www.mediafire.com/download/w..., NO Bootloaders, Re-partition, Full Wipe.zip
Just loat it up on Odin and flash away. You can't get in recovery cause your phone can't load anything atm, it needs a clean flash. Just make sure nothing interrupts Odin while it's flashing.

You can give Heimdall a shot (note that it will install its own drivers on the usb port you'll use it on so Odin won't work on it): http://www.mediafire.com/download/5..., NO Bootloaders, Wipe-Heimdall One-Click.zip
If that doesn't work, I can say at like 95% that your internal memory is dead and you'll have to partition an SD card if you wanna get it running. There are guides on how to do it on here.

I've seen that image often. Uninstalling then re-installing the usb drivers for Samsung helped me. Flashing a captivate can be a little convoluted granted all the different methods of acquiring root and flashing a rom that's been used through the years ... and subsequently posted somewhere on the internet. I'd suggest the following .... once your device is recognized in Odin.
1. Flash I897UCKK4 with Odin (no root) for gingerbread stock rom
2. Download and install KK4root. Run Kk4 root "run" exe in the kk4_root folder. Corn kernel is installed with modded recovery system
3. From Corn kernel recovery click "root extras" to get su and busy box installed
