wth is an odin3 unroot, do u mean 1 click restore?
and more importantly you need to get those drivers working or else your computer can't see the phone,which means you cant run odin in the first place. i don't understand want the problem is, you run the .exe file and restart your computer if you have to, just make sure u match 32/64bit of your OS
10 charcater
If you can not get the drivers on the odin thread to work put samsung captivate into google search. Go to official web site. Bottom of page, download manual, click, click software. There is a download for drivers. Try them

How do i fix my Bricked phone !! URGENT

Hey guys, I'm having big problem and can't go to sleep
i tried flashing the new ROM (i've done it so many times that i wasn't scared of anything).... Rom installed the Kernel too and I cleaned cache after installation, but ! when i choose Restart Now option, it suddenly restarted (screen went black suddenly) and the BLANK___________________. :'(
Here are the things i did whole day :/
1-3Button's technique
2-Can't go in Download,Recovery Mode
3-Can't connect to PC
It's like a Plastic Toy now that has no functions
I don't even know what it is(Hard/Soft/Dead Bricked). I've read through web that it can b a SW/FW HangUp or Temporary Brick which can b fixed ?..
Please tell me how to fix this issue,I'm really nervous
Help would b appreciated...
-(sorry for bad eng-)

(it is not possible) but maybe your key combo have been changed with galaxy mini 2 so try that one
or maybe the battery got empty
So Hard Bricked can b revived ?

try this to see if your phone can be forced to boot up..
remove the battery from phone
connect the phone to pc, and when the pc beeps put the battery right away..
I tried it on my mini since it can't powered on a few days ago. and it worked.

Doesn't matter if it beeps or not actually, my PC didn't beep too when I plug the phone but I just put the battery back on and it booted.
I'm afraid your mini is indeed bricked.
You can try a USB jig or "Jtag (correct me if I'm wrong)..

Dude its expensive (about 150 $)
And it might not work . just send it to Samsung repair center and they will fix it for a cheaper price .
N.B : I did that , my phone got bricked too and as u can it is working .
Sent from my GT-S5570
To me, it looks like it needs to be sent back to Samsung. See if you can get it fixed under warranty, if not you'll have to pay. Good luck.

Hi dheeraj, is it possible that an empty or totally dead battery could prevent your phone from "memorizing" the flashing you do with Odin, so to send the device always in boot loop? I'm asking this since I'm having the same problem that the user who opened this thread has described, even if with a GT-S6500. It can only go into download mode, but not into recovery mode (could it be soft bricked?). I don't know what the previous owner did, but I'm trying to resurrect the phone. Thanks in advance for your help.

thought your problem got solved
no it cannot happen that without battery the memory would be washed out as it is written on a storage kind of device
what you can do is just flash a four package firmware through odin (phone, pda, csc etc. slots filled)
let the phone reboots on it own, after rebooting the mobile will automatically go into stock recovery and will do some processing and you would be done

[Help] X8 won't root

Hello everyone. As the title says I have rooting problem on my X8 device.
My x8 was already rooted before and i had had custom rom on it.
Few days back I wanted to put another rom, while doing that X8 got bricked.
I fixed it via PC Companion and everything is alright until i try to root it.
(Following links are in text form, I just made this account and can't make links jet.)
SuperOneClick:
When I click root, first error I get is this:
i.imgur.com/JjY36qY.png
After clicking Yes I get new window popping up saying.
Unknown error(0xe00022b) (last 3 latters change every time i try)
I click OK and it starts rooting. After few sec, it freezes like this:
i.imgur.com/b9vQD3X.png
All I get here is text on right blinking every few seconds.
x8toolbox:
Realizing that this won't work i tried via x8toolbox
There i get error:
i.imgur.com/poydVDJ.png
(Image is low qualtiy, but that is maximum I can get from that program.)
I don't know what to do. I was searching forums for days in hope to resolve my problem and had no luck.
Please, if anyone know anything about this problem I would appreciate your help.
Thank you in advance.
Maybe you can....
I prefer if one app doesnt work try different apps like z4root .....etc ...dont get stuck on only one app...
Link to z4root is
http://mediafire.com/?78b3yt3gooiazzo
Download the apk...and follow the instructions...
Feel free to ask questions...
Hit thanks if it helped..

Yeah, I'm using Windows 8. It may be the problem, becouse before I returned him back to normal via PCC, I had Windows 7 installed and it worked.

Reflash the stock rom and try again

USB tethering .. not" wifi tethering" and i think that this because the drivers on the pc "stock" are for JB 4.0.1 " the last update ". In stock rom when i connect usb with phone and PC and choose usb tethering . from the phone it install driver. and then connect. but in custom rom, after choosing usb tethering >> NOTHING happened !! but wifi tethering is working fine with my laptop also portable hot spot " it is another case that has no problem
No solution till now?! Am i the first one who use usb tethering in custom rom
