Any Other Way To Bring My Phone Back To Life

My SGS isn't bricked. But lately after I flashed a deodexed 2.3.3 ROM, I have a hard time connecting my USB (USB not recognized). This afternoon, my phone jammed and won't boot (Stuck in Samsung Galaxy S I9000 Screen). I can't enter the recovery mode either for no reason (used to be able to).
Now I can't flash a stock ROM because my USB isn't recognized and recovery mode is unaccessible too. Trying to install the drivers for the USB now. Anyway as it's installing, any other ways to bring my phone back?

Flash a rom through odin. You could try darky's 9.2 ressurection edition.

The problem now is I could not flash with Odin because my USB isn't working

seriously try using other computer or laptop.. install the required drivers on your friends computer and then try to flash a different rom via odin

tried that. on different comp. same problem. USB not recognized with the drivers installed

I guess this is the problem. When I can't boot my phone, I did a backup restore. Maybe something is messed up and drivers don't recognize my phone as Samsung Galaxy S anymore. Anyway to force it to recognize?

REMOVE USB DEVICES .
USB connection must be a motherboard connector .

if you can go into download mode then you surely can get it flashed with odin ..
try downloading the drivers again and then installing again and then try again....
... if everything fails then you should send it to the service center

Try unplugging and plugging the usb repeatedly. I've had this happen before, and I was able to get the phone recognised by doing this.

[Q] "Soft-bricked" Captivate

I thought I totally bricked my Captivate, but it turns out it will enter download mode and after a couple of days I even got the AT&T screen to load up (though nothing happens after that). I thought I could use Odin3 to flash stock back onto it, but every time I connect it via USB Windows recognizes it as a malfunctioned device. None of the Odin programs I use will recognize it now. Is there any way I can get my phone back? Any help is appreciated.

I think you need to install a proper driver.

Delete it please.

The drivers were installed. The computer used to recognize the phone just fine before it bricked. I've been trying everything to get stock back on it...

Try a different computer
My laptop had this exact problem for all of its usb ports
I changed to my desktop and everything works fine now
Swyped from gingerbread powered captivate

[Resolved] Can't access device via Heimdall

Hello all,
The past day or so I have been attempting to install a fresh custom rom on my vzw tablet. I presently have a stock copy of DJ11 that is rooted installed.
When I put the device into download mode and connect to the computer, Heimdall (version 1.1.1) gives me the following error
Failed to access device. Error: -12
I have tried reinstalling the drivers, both off of the tablet and from the ZAdiag program included with Heimdall and the error persists. I have tried many different combinations of opening/closing heimdall/disconnecting and reconnecting the tablet while in download and out of download, and I have tried on two different PCs. Nothing seems to fix the problem.
I have seen another post on the forums about this particular issue, but the method of resolution that user was able to make work has not worked for me.
It seems to me that the tablet itself is to blame, like it is locking Heimdall out.
Basically at this point, any rom that requires use of Heimdall to install is not going to work. I do have CWM3 and the Verizon Bootstrapper installed, so if anyone has a link to a completely stock copy of the rom that comes in a zip, please link it as I would like to try that method of installing a new rom.
Thank you for any insight at all!!

Have you checked with odin to make sure the tablet is not connecting?
I had the same problem and pluged the device in another usb port, then hold power, volume down e home and after a while odin showed the yellow bar.
then disconnected it and put in another usb port, after that heimdall found it.
and to mention my tablet was dead, no screen no donwload mode, and not responding to button press. and still i was able to connect and ressurect it doing this.

Thanks for the good idea! When I connect it with Odin open, I get the yellow bar. I think that Heimdall is connecting as well, it just isn't being allowed to make any changes. Access denied is my suspicion. I'm not sure what would cause that, or how to correct it.

I am pleased to report that I was able to find a solution. With Odin running, I was getting a yellow bar indicating the device was connected. I ran Heimdall while Odin was still open...and voila, it worked without a hitch.
Thanks again for the assistance. Keep this one tucked away in your memory in case you ever experience something similar!

You can also update the USB drivers through Heimdall like the instructions say.... Might be a safer way than to have ODIN open too...
You just need to downgrade the usb drivers after using Heimdall to use ODIN again...

I had updated the drivers through Heimdall. Both in regular boot mode, and in download mode. Whatever caused the problem, it is seemingly fixed. I just hope it stays that way!

Thanks studa really appreciate ur help,ive tried that odin wont respond back at all..tried that several time with usb debugging on..

Usb debugging doesn't matter in download mode.
Reinstall drivers, reboot pc, use a usb port connected to the motherboard (on the back) right click odin and run as admin.

[Q] Cappy boot-loop brick.. used jig, now not seen by odin

Hey all:
So i tried flashing back to 2.1 yesterday on my i897 Cappy so that I could root the phone. Got the boot-loop of the flashing charging/ or if not plugged in the rebooting AT&T world phone screen.
I build a jig and got to the download screen, but Odin and cmd "adb devices" cannot find my phone.
I have the samsung drivers installed and all, and cant figure out how my computer can see my phone when its only in DL mode.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

follow up
A little bit more info:
I've tried with 2 computers now with the drivers and odin-oneclick to see if the device would be recognized, but so far nothing. I've also tried everything else under the sun i've seen on different posts/forums, but nothing works (ex. pulling battery and re-doing the jig-2-download mode, re-installing drivers, etc)
If anyone has any clue please help thanks

Plug into a port on the back of computer (#1 on a laptop). Reboot the computer. Open Odin before plugging in phone. If on a win 7 or vista machine, run Odin as administrator. Download Kies (full version, not mini) and go into tools to install those drivers. Make sure you have a good cable. That's every suggestion I have. Hope one helps.

going to give it a wack now

flashed back to 2.1 successfully... thanks for the help.. odin run as admin, but could not be one-click... that was my problem..
One click will not see the device if it is boot-looped, but if you download full odin it sees it.
Also, dont know if this was a fix/problem, but the sim card had to be removed.
Thanks for the help!
/gettin cyogen now .. will post how it goes
