Maybe a nood question, but, is it normal that the triangle shows on download mode screen? Cos i rooted my phone and then i unrooted it. I didnt flash any custom or official roms yet. Imma send this back to samsung because of the screen. So its for warranty purposes thats why i asked. TIA!

Yes, on download mode its normal, then you press volume up to go to odin mode.

Thanks. So is it safe to send it back for warranty?

Yep, as long as you have stock firmware and kernel, and when you go into download mode, it says SAMSUNG OFFICIAL and COUNTER is ZERO. But if you just rooted and unrooted using zergrush or similar, you are good to go.
Already unrooted with zergrush. Thanks for your time.

So I was trying to follow the directions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127249
But I did NOT have a KF1 Rom. Now I'm stuck in a fugu fish reboot loop. I have tried VOLup and Down + power, I have tried VOL Up+power, I even made a 301k resister jig, all to no avail.
Does anyone have any more suggestions on getting my phone up and running again?
Flash dgs kf1 kernel and your set

The fugu is a kernel swap root method.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
Oh yeah use Odin to flash the kernel...or you can just flash a stock rom and star over

Same problem here
I'm having the same issue. The problem is that there is an infinite loop during loading. Either:
1. the att screen to fugu fish, repeat.
2. the "initiating charging" to reboot.
adb wont recognize it and because plugging it in takes it into a new reboot, the hard button combo wont work.
I've tried all of the possible button combos.
Correct me if I'm wrong but the fugu is gonna do that I believe its just for rooting purposes. Pull battery enter download mode flash the correct kernel for your Tom with Odin. Good to go

Yeah, you're right but I couldn't 3-button into download. I jig fixed and now I'm good and loaded cog5.
The only problem I have now (which I had before) is that I cannot boot into recovery mode. It just boots to the at&t screen and then gets brighter.

Load Cog kernal and you will have recovery back.
As popfan said, you need to flash the cognition 5 beta 2 kernel before you flash the final rom.

please people for the love of all that you hold dear. Stop flashing till you know WTH your doing. It is hard to be willing to help others when hundreds of people make the same mistake because they are not reading and and being LAZY by just following a video. I am hard pressed to feel sorry for bricks that come from lack of effort on the users part. With the coming changes you may want to be sure you understand what your doing before you do it.

Nope, not a brick. You probably have a working button combination, but the recovery simply isn't there. You need to boot into download mode and flash a kernel.

thanks that fixed it. my phone is now awesome.
Dear all,
I need your advise / help.
Friend of my asking me for help to recovery his Galaxy Tab 8.9 LTE, he tell me that, during his root process, he brick his Tab 8.9. Now the tab is showing Black all time. I taken a look, and connected to Data USB cable, connect it to PC.
This WIN7 OS direct the tab and install USB driver. When I push on/off button, the tab seems reboot itself into loop. But the screen not showning anything at all.
I put it into Samsung charger ( not USB to PC). But it does not shown the Big icon of battery. But I know it is live. As the PC response with installing USB driver. But the USB drive was pickup wrongly, as some kind of USB reader. NOT the Tab 8.9.
What is the best way to recovery this tab 8.9 to factory ROM ? I did downloaded lastest P7320ZHLP8_P7320ZZHLP8_P7320ZHLP2_CL1174893_user_l ow_HOME.tar from sammobile.com and have ODIN 1.85 ready. I just need to find a way to get this tab into download MODE.
Can you help and advise.
many thanks
James
If Odin recognizes the device flash the stock tar. The yellow com port will show up in Odin if it recognizes it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Yes, I did tried ODIN, but it does not flag up yellow com port, as it needs to be in download mode in order for ODIN to connect the tab.
It sounds like you're hard bricked. If it's still in warranty Samsung should fix it. If its not look for a jtag service for the tab.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
i see. May I know what is "jtag service for the tab" ?
thanks
Google it. It's the only way to repair a hard brick.

hard brick ?
but it is live. able to connect pc usb with response. so just software issues right ?
Sent from my GT-N7100
That's typical of a hard brick. It's not completely dead but the only way you'll get any firmware on it is jtag.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
thanks for clarify , it is out of warranty, will advise my friend by it back to samsung repair.
Sent from my GT-N7100
by the way, the tab still up running on battery, my guess if it I let it discharge itself, until battery flat, so it acturally shutdown.
Then charge it again, will it able to get into download mode ?
cheers

I would try it but I don't think so. I had a tab that bricked and all I could do was have Samsung repair it. It was still under warranty.

RIFF JTAG box can help ?
Finally got jtag service done. Now the back online.
But it was being installed with wcm recovery, how can I restore it back to factory rom ?
Thanks

Use Odin to flash the stock rom. You can get the rom at sammobile.com. you'll have to sign up but it's free. You can extract the tar.md5 file out of the zip file using 7-zip. Flash the md5 file.

I have none commercial sample of I8190 with unstable firmware and tried to flash I8190XXALL2 Firmware with odin.
I enetered to download mode and start flashing. the process was successful and odin said: Passed but the phonerebooted and doesn't turns on anymore. I tried to connect charger but it doesn't reacts anymore.
Any suggestion?
Wipe data before installation of ROM. Use wipe or paramfiles in this forum before flashing firmware.

Not sure but i think that there is another problem. Odin passed the flashing process successfully but phone doesnt turns on after reboot.

You may have bricked your phone.

You could try first taking out your battery for 5 minutes.
Then press and hold the buttons to enter download mode while putting the battery back to it's place.
Hope it helps you.
Unfortunately this method doesn't helped.

That is JIG?

Google for jig make or buy one , its cheap , and try plugging it in - if it works you should be in download mode and can re flash stock via odin.
Else only way left is to jtag by taking it to Samsung service centre
leap before you think
yesterday i rooted and installed safestrap... tried a few different ROMs but the issue i had was running out of room for my apps.
i wiped the stock rom and rebooted... not it won't go past the Samsung Note3 Custom screen.
i tried to reboot into recovery, and install a ROM from the sd card, but it isn't working, i get a few errors and once it's done, it still won't get past the samsung screen.
Can i fix this? or is it bricked?
Sent from my Apple Galaxy Note 7
This should be in the Q&A thread.
Since you have rom slot I assume you are on JB. You still can access to the recovery so that's a good thing. The rom that you are trying to flash are also JB? How long is it stuck on Samsung splash screen? Worse comes worse you can always use the restore to mj5 to unbrick it. A bit more work but by all means this is fixable and nothing major.

that's what I've found online... seems like that's the route I'll likely have to take.
I did backup my original OS/ROM but not sure how to load it. Looks like I'll be scouring google....

wow, i honestly thought I bricked this thing. I had already seen the Restore for MJ5 threads, so when it got linked in this thread I was thinking to myself "you M.F.... " lol.
A lot of this stuff is way over my head (i'm a stubborn bastard).....
But it's back!!! Thanks XDA people!
