Is my Galaxy S totally bricked?

Okay guys... I was running froyo with OC lag fix,
I didnt know i had to remove OCLF before upgrading thru kies...
Started the update, it was stuck on DOWNLOADING screen(on the phone) .. at 53% for 30 mins +
I removed the battery on the phone, thinking that I have the recovery mode anyway, and now I cant get into the recovery/download mode, nothing is happening, the screen doesnt even turn on.
Is my phone 100% bricked? Is there anything else i can try? If not... If i send it to samsung can they fix it?

Tried this too .. not working

It's bricked because you've messed up the bootloader.

If it was at 53% progress I doubt the flashing of the bootloaders had gone wrong. Probably it was in factoryfs.rfs (if it works same way as Odin).
sometimes it takes more time to enter download mode (up to 20 sec).

Take the battery out for 30 min then place it back and see if you can enter Download Mode, If you can't then you have a problem.

After 30 mins, should I PRESS the buttons first and then insert the battry(while keeping them pressed) OR put the battery first and then press the buttons?
UPDATE : I tried it, didn't work.
I guess all left now is to give it for repairs? :/

No, insert the battery then try to enter Download mode.
If it does not work then send it to be repaired or try USB-JIG: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551 I prefer the last one, cheap and fast.

in my experience.
When the screen is black and not light, I have tried everything and never managed to arrest him. Nor I worked the jig
repair center

Does the device get seen by the pc when you plug a usb cable in?
Have you tried the 301k resistor jig ?

It seems bad. I think you'll have to go to samsung. I think you can try saying, you were doing an update from kies (froyo -> gingerbread - flashes bootloaders) and then suddenly your PC turned off (power failure) . It seems that the phone can boot from USB too, so samsung can repair it without even opening it. Here on xda, there is a thread, where some guys (much more clever than me ) are trying to figure out the protocol.
Sorry for my English

I recently got my wife's sgs out of a simalar situation by using ADB. And the command of "adb reboot download" if you search xda you can find a ton of info and download links for adb

Once I saw someone that had to pull out the battery for several hours.
Maybe do that over night and then try the download mode again in the morning.
Good luck

He can't get to the system nor to the recovery (most likely messed bootloaders), so he can't use adb.

riff jtag can recover bootloaders' but a technition has to do it
oh yes and it cost $$$

I think what should be focused on first is getting juice back in that battery. Plug it in to the charger and let it sit for a few hours (like, at least 8 hours). It may boot loop but maybe it will still get some juice? (not sure about this..). Then you can try again to get into Flashmode. (Are you experienced in flashing stock FTF's with flashtool?)

no... i let it charge for a little and tried the volume up plus power buttom it vibrated but boot it back to sony screen.

Hi there,
I have one serious problem, well my moto g just bricked him self, so i've been installing cyanogen mod 12 to in, and it was runing it for few days. One day I woke up and see that it was bootlooping. Now I cant even go to bootloader with button combination, it is only bootloping form powering to motorola logo and back, I tried to flash it as a dead device but no sucess, can anyone tell me solution to this problem, or anything else, thank you in advance.

of course (naravno brate ) but it doesn't want to turn itself off

Stupid question but have you got the power plugged in? I've had some boot problems. So you've tried vol down and power combo and vol up and power separately? From dead. Not holding once bootlooped?

Power off phone.
Then press home button+volume down+power until it enters download mode. If this not work your phone is probably dead.

Did you try boot to download mode using Terminal Emulator? (ADB USB).
If your phone did reach the boot image (blinking image/animation after the "SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 MINI GT-I8190" logo), there's chance to use Term Command to boot from PC, I believe.

How about charging? Working or not? If not find another battery, try it.
And just try reboot using ADB, if still nothing, probably @bejunk is right.
