[Q] Please help with bricked P1000 - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys! Pls i want u all to help with my tab P1000. I bricked my device after flashing GB Stock Safe V5. I eventually read Adam Outler's unbrickable mod for P1000. I was able to perform the hardware mod and in fact i was able to run the Ultimate unbrickable resurrector on my ubuntu laptop as the tab is detected as as S5PC110. after then I did Heimdall one click recovery. but now when i hook up to my computer it will not boot, plug it in to the wallcharger or unplug it it will not boot but after holding down the power button for a few seconds, the touch strip will light up. (This is the only response i get from the device). Universal Unbrickable resurrector still detects the tab though and i can still get download mode through unbrickable resurrector. Although nothing is displayed on the tab (except the camera flashlight that stays on in download mode) I want to know if i can get any help with this or if there's something i doing wrong. Thanks!!!

When you put it in download mode, does it get detected in ODIN?
If it does, you need to repartition it using the .pit file. You can see it in the OVERCOME install guide.
I have bricked my tab, but whenever i have, i was still able to access the download mode. All i did afterwards was use the pit file and check the repartition in odin v1.7 and it started working again.
If it is not, you should probably redo the whole thing again.

DID I JUST BRICK MY PHONE??
tried flashing the i9000 rom... got messed up sometime after flashing csc and pda.... now i can boot to recovery menu and get odin to recognize but im getting an error
copy_multi_carrier from: ATT
multicsc : can not acces to /system/csc/ATT/system/
copy_common_data
then it stalls.. my power button doesnt work to reboot system now...
Even though odin recognizes i hit start and nothing happens..
can anyone help.. i will donate and make it worth your time..
No you didn't brick your phone, you need to follow the I9000 guide in the stickied threads. You need to load a Captivate kernel before fully rebooting your phone.
First off get your phone back into download mode. Pull battery and usb cable, restart Odin, then follow this method to get you into download mode, put in battery, hold down both volume buttons, keep holding them and plug in the USB cable.
First when you flash a I9000 rom make sure you uncheck autoreboot on Odin.
When this done when you flash the Rom it will say Restet in Odin. At that time pull your battery and USB cable.
Restart Odin and load the Captivate kernel. Put you battery in, hold both volume buttons, keep them held and plug in the USB cable, should go into download mode. Start Odin, and it should be fine to let it autoreboot.
I missed something it will be in the stickied thread.

can you clear something up is Android System Recovery the same as download mode??
ok this thread can be deleted.. im a noob.. kjpdx throw me a link to donate.. i figured it out by myself but atleast you replied..
Two different modes. Download mode shows an Android holding a shovel and Recovery mode is where you would install update.zips.
Needs to be in Download mode when installing roms and kernels with Odin.

Hi:
I have the same problem of my Galaxy S. It is stuck in this screen saying
copy_multi_carrier from: ATT
multicsc : can not access to /system/csc/ATT/system/
etc. etc.
I boot it to the download mode as instruction, but the Kies always shows connecting device, and it never gets connected. The Odin shows no com port or device for me to load the firmware. Can anyone help? Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks! I couldn't get download mode and this is the only thread online to help. I received this error when trying to install the voodoo lagfix while running cognition 2.2 beta 7. (for some reason, my cognition did not have the lagfix built in)

That reason is that voodoo doesn't work with 2.2
For the sake of your wallet, I would read the threads more carefully before flashing new roms if I were you. I'm not trying to be a ****, but this issue was addressed many times in the cognition thread. I'm all for learning from others on this forum after they make the mistakes

So, this one contains a bootloader (Sbl.bin). maybe thats the cause of the problem. Still, I wonder why it started in the first place and then after some reboots it gets stuck. I tried different Kernels with no luck. Maybe I should try to flash a new bootloader? However, that could brick the device forever.

I have a very similar problem.
I flashed the [ROM] Roto JMI Pre-Rooted Firmware v2 [Feb 4, 2011], and got stuck on the Samsung Boot screen.
Now, I can't even get the Downloading mode to work. It opens fine, but Odin/Heimdall doessn't detect the Tab at all.
Hopefully, someone knows what's going on. If not, I'm taking it back to my carrier, and asking them to fix it (assuming they'll fix it).
Maybe this will help for the bootloader.
Its a bootloader patch. Please read thru the thread. Hope it helps.

Dont get what you mean by that. You cant get it to download mode but your tab start up fine?
Download mode = press vol down + power pn button.
As for odin/heimdall doesnt detect the tab it could be usb port (some reports in android development thread) or could be usb drivers.
As i need to switch usb drivers when i need to flash my tab & my dell streak.
Hope it helps to start you off.

I meant that I can get into Download mode, with the Downloading logo, but doesn't get detected by Odin. And it stays stuck on the Samsung boot logo if turned on normally. Can't get into recovery either.
Before I flashed the Roto ROM, Odin was working perfectly fine. I've been flashing other kernels and ROMs before. But now, the USB doesn't even seem to get detected. It's like nothing is plugged in. Can't even choose to install/uninstall old/new drivers.
I dont think it's the USB port, as I've tried to connect to Odin on 3 different computers, trying every available port on each. It's looking like the USB connector is just dead or something.
My tabs mainboard was broken, it was replaced and now it works again.

Same problem here man. I CAN get in to download mode. Odin recognize it normally. I CAN download normally. Look likes everything is normal, but after update it restarts, but hangs on Galaxy Tab Samsung logo. I've tryed everything with different firmware, custom-roms, hacking things, but with no success.
Can someone please help me?
Same problem here. My tab is stuck at samsung galaxy logo and until now, no one could provide an answer.
I flashed some ROM from samfirmware that must of locked the bootloader (JMF). Then I tried to flash JM6, JMA, JMC, JMK, JJ4, JJ7, JM5, JJ1, JID and almost all ROTO's. with and without pit files using ODIN 1.7. I also tried a stock ROGERS ROM (that i downloaded from this forum) using Heimdall. The tab always boots to samsung galaxy tab logo. I've done alot of reading in this forum and followed many flashing instructions but when applied, it doesn't work for me.
My main concern: is there still hope with the tab ? or it's gone forever.
Is there any specific order that i must follow when flashing ? ( ie, flash one specific ROM before another). The tab was canadian that was flashed to euro.
Thanks for reading my post.
the dbdata file is corrupted.
1) download this file
http://forum.xda-dev...98&d=1290261479
2) extract it
3) use Odin to flash it under the PDA option
-make sure repartition is UNCHECKED
-do not select any pit file
-leave everything else the same

[Q] [HELP] Bricked my SGS!

Totally bricked it.
- Unable to boot into recovery.
- ODIN doesn't detect my phone. (possible USB brick?)
- Screen stays stuck at SAMSUNG GALAXY S
Was trying to re-flash CM7, wiped data, reboot, doesn't work.
Tried booting back into recovery, no longer works.
Anyone has any idea? Bootable SD card doesn't work too.
I'm totally out of ideas.
mate did u try to go to download mode???
Download mode flash stock rom with pit 512 and repartition ticked ..
No download mode recovery jig of front page .
jje
how do i do it if ODIN doesn't read my phone anymore?
if you don't go into download mode; odin will not recognize your phone. otherwise, if you can't access download mode, you must use a JIG made of resistors. search the forum. or, if odin fails to detect your phone again, you must clean the contacts of the cable and the phone and the pc. again search the forum. if this fails, try a different cable or a different computer. and make sure that you have the necessary usb drivers installed.
Managed to restore my phone! THANKS A LOT!

Bricked my phone while flashing from Phoenix to stock 2.3.3

Hi everyone! I have Captivate(1008 batch) with Phoenix Ultimate firmware. Today I tried to flash it with batch Gingerbread. Seems like my mistake was that I forgot to turn off lagfix. Odin halted. Now I'm getting "phone-!-PC" screen each time I connect phone to PC...
I can not get cappy into download mobe(tried all 3 ways)
Odin doesn't see phone...
Do I have any chaces to repair my phone or it's a brick? Is there a chance that jig will help?
There's a new thread in the dev section about a one click unbrick from that screen. I read that it's just downlad the software, plug in phone and click run.
AdamOutler made this -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153310
Ok, thanks I'll try that! BTW which fimware should I flash if my cappy is back to download mode? As I understand Phoenix formated my phone memory into ext4 filesystem. Is that possible to flash stock Gingerbread on ext4 filesystem?
UPD: Unfortunately software unbrick doesn't help I got "Phone is not connected" message. My PC doesn't see phone at all
The Jig should work, assuming you don't have mixed bootloaders. If you do have mixed bootloaders, JTAG service will be what you need.
If you do manage to get back to download mode, use the JF6 Odin 1-click.
You can get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
Here's another suggestion that I did with a 1008 that I had a while back. open Odin 1 click to prepare for download mode. (make sure it's not one with the three button fix - if you one click from gingerbread to 3 button fix stock, it is a certain hard brick).
Remove battery, count to 10, replace battery.
hold the vol up and vol down buttons at the same time until you see the screen flash. It should flash every 5-7 seconds as long as you continiuosly hold the buttons.
When you see the screen flash, insert usb cord (with it already connected to computer).
This got me to download mode. It mat take a few tries. sometimes it's a challenge to get to DL mode from this screen. This procedure worked on my 1008. Hope it works.
A jig may work too, but it n ever worked for me on the 1008.
Thank you guys. Hope your suggestions will help!
With the phone and PC screen the Jig will work for sure try and make one or u can buy it.
You can also try this, Remove the battery open odin 1 cick and plug the cable to the usb port at the back of the PC and then the phone and now put the battery see if the odin lits up if yes you are done.
I solved the problem(even without jig). So writing my solution, hope this will help someone.
1) I went home to use another PC. Installed Samsung drivers there.
2) I tried different key combos. Vol Up + Vol Down didn't worked but Vol Down + USB entered Download mode.
3) One guy from russian android forum told me to try with Odin 1 click 2.1 stock firmware. Only this version of firmware connected to my soft bricked phone.
One more time thanks everyone for your replies
For future reference.
If your phone turns on (you can see anything on the screen), then you do not have a perminate brick, and a jig will work.
And your filesystem/lagfix does not matter with odin 1click. It resets everything to the way it came, nomater what you came from. (It even works on cm7 witch repartisioned it and used MTD).
I have the same problem as you. I can't get get the one-click unbrick to work (doesn't detect a device). I ordered a jig yesterday, hopefully it comes soon. I have a 1010 though, which I heard had more problems than others.
use a JIG
i made my custom JIG for 60 cents, save my Cappy after a failed cyanogen install.

[Q] amateur in need of help!

I followed instructions on a link via the cyanogenmod website, to try and get cm7 on my phone. The instructions were on a wiki website which I now know is not reliable!
I got to the stage "flashing cyanagonmod" to find out that the zip files had to be in the internal sd card BEFORE starting the whole process!
I can still access download mode and recovery. But my phone gets stuck on the "Samsung galaxy i9000" intro screen.
I tried restoring and factory reset but still no joy...
any help is very appreciated!
Download some odin flashable ROM, and flash that in download mode.
where do I find an odin ROM and how do I know which one to use?
corrected: samfirmware.com
If you want a custom rom, then look through here however your going to have to read which is odin flashable...
This is a guide and rom i have used myself. Click here
BTW this is obviously assuming you are on SGS I9000 the second link should be quite clear...
here's a nice link to finding stock firmwares and using Odin:

Thanks for your post. Only problem is ODin doesn't recognise when my phone is plugged in? i.e. there isn't that yellow box showing...help!
Ok so im guessing your trying the 3 button combo for download mode (vol up + home + power). Alternatives to force download is a homemade jig, which is easily obtainable from ebay for a relatively cheap price. Other ways you can try is holding the combo for as long as you can, some have reported it may even work after 3 mins. Another method is hold the combo and then whilst holding it insert the battery. Also the last method but have the usb plugged into with odin open, then put the battery in. Many many ways... just search
Is that what you mean or that you CAN get to download mode and Odin and the computer does NOT recognise when you plug it in. If this is try re-installing the drivers using kies, its under the tools menu. Try a different version of odin, plug phone in then try the combo (with battery already in, then without). Have you closed all Kies applications background processes? (use task manager in windows). Use another computer..
Also have you read this
Edit: Forgot to add, can you get into Recovery? Then use your nandroid backup which you should always do before flashing.. If you dont have a back up try use ADB to force download mode "adb reboot download"
Need to know what options you have available in-order to help, what can you do? Is there any response from your phone with pressing buttons or key combinations??
