[Q] Desperate! Bricked SGS i9000m Bell - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I attempted to root my SGS i9000m using odin, I put the phone into download mode and ran odin, it flashed some files and now my phone wont boot or enter recovery/download mode! It randomly shows AT&T World phone splash screen whenever i try to turn it on. That screen just keeps flashing and refuses to boot or be recognized by the computer. When I plug the phone into a USB cord it wont turn on at ALL.
Please, please don't tell me Im screwed!

Try and look into getting a USB JIG, which may get your phone booting into download mode and from there hopefully Odin detects it so you can flash

Yeah you flashed the wrong firmware on your phone.. u need a jig.. and next time READ!

Thanks, what's a jig? I did read, I just downloaded the wrong version of Odin and I did it late at night.. Not a good combination.

Search the forums for a jig.. I think you can buy them on ebay .. or if your handy with a soldering gun you can make it yourself.
There is no wrong version of Odin.. you just downloaded the wrong firmware and flashed it before reading what phone it was for

Btw a jig is a device with an USB plug, that plugged in your phone switched off, the turn on, should put it in download mode.

Where are you located? Maybe someone near you has a jig.
Did you pull the battery out and then put it back in to see if you can get into download mode? That worked for me when I messed up my first root attempt.

if you can get into download mode.. you should be able to flash the correct firmware.. no jig needed...

If anytime anysuch thing happens then first check that can you go into download mode or bot Coz if u can then no problem Cox then you can fix any problem but if u can't then jig is the only hope left for you! (Also remember that sgs doesn't go into recovery and download mode when connected to charging)

Korean SGS won't stay in download mode...

I'm trying to get my Korean SGS phone into download mode to flash a 2.3.6 firmware, but the phone won't stay in download mode. It goes straight to recovery after it shows the download mode picture. Any info? Or fixes?

Anyone?

hmm.. So it shows the yellow download pic and right after that goes into recovery? You tried to pull out battery and restart to download mode right after that? you got usb cable connected while doing that?
For me it worked always but again i got GT-I9000 but i would not imagine its that different with these two phones? Never heard of this kind of problem.. one more thing i can think of is trying to use the custom made usb dingle what are sold for example in ebay or you make one yourself that goes into download mode without button combination.
Try to update to latest firmware with kies too if that would solve the problem.. for me i had to do that the first time i started to play around with my phone because before that update i could not even go to download mode.
Thats all i can think about after drinking 10 cans of beer so hopefully even 1 of those helps your case. Hope you get it to work
-_-
Any other solutions besides buying a usb jig? I know there's a way to get it into download mode WITHOUT the phone even showing the android shoveling image. And the screen is just plain black. I forgot how to do it though, and what website I read the article.

I had the same problem. It was solve when I realise that the Korean version (M110S) enter DL mode by pressing only home key+power, while the I9000 need the 3 bottons combination.

[i9000m] Galaxy S not starting, no download, no recovery, help!

helped a friend out about 4 months ago by flashing kg3 onto his galaxy s after it would crash repeatedly saying 'internal process (android system) error, must forceclose' and after that it worked fine,
but yesterday he said it won't boot up, won't go into download or recovery, the only screen interaction he can get is when it's plugged in it will say battery 100% charged,
when i plugged it into keys the computer beeped then said 'keys 2.0 doesn't recognize this phone' .... help please?!
Have you tried removing and re-inserting the battery? At times after doing that you are atleast able to get into the download mode.
you wil have to re install firmware
Ya I have tried that, still no download mode, and I obviously know I have to reinstall firmware but how could I do that with no download mode

just double check. if you used to be able to get download mode then you shoud be able to get in it again. sgs are fairly hard to break. try removing the battery at full charge and leave all cables out when you do remove it . do the button combo and you should be good. after that happy flashing

[Q] My Phone is Dead, it only flashing

When i putted the phone in the download mode, then i plugged in the USB and my ODIN3 v1.00 was opened that time. I clicked on the start in the ODIN3 and after showing some processing in it, it says removed. then my phone was automatically turned of. And know whenever i start it... it just only flash the "at&t world phone" on the screen. and when i plug in the USB the at&t logo stop flashing and it goes completely black....
Please help me how to fix it...
you will need to get the phone into download mode , if the 3 button combo is not working you will need a usb jig http://www.1giftbuy.com/p-10279-i9000-i9100-micro-usb-download-mode-jig-/?currency=GBP
any other option
is there is any other option available beside using USB jig... because i heard sometime the fone totally dead after using it... there is no warranty of the recovery of the fone after using it...
Unfortunately a jig is your best option for getting download mode as far as i know. Have you tried one click unbrick in hemindal?
