This is my cousins, and it wont turned on even to the dowload mode. He updated it and unplug the usb before the phone boot. He ask me to fix it. Pc wont detect it. My friend told me to find the hard reset button. I just dont know which one is it? Stock rom i guess before he bricked it.

Hi, i have a gt i9000 , and i don't have a hard reset button on the phone. We can make a factory reset and all the wipes only with the recovery.

[q] help! Help! My tab totally dead!!

Pls.. Could anyone help!
If there's still a way to recover my samsung galaxy tab after i flash it to a rooted gingerbread. I used to have a 2.3.4 version but non-rooted.. I tried to to put the rooted version but unfortunately my tab bricked! And now its totally dead! I cant even go to recovery mode! Nothing.. all dead.. When i push the power on the led light for camera just keeps on turning on and nothing more... Connected to the pc and doesn't recognized! Now im losing hope but to junk it cuz i tried everything....
My tab is a korean version swh something... I don't remember
a i have a little hope that this thread might help me.
Thanks very much guys!!!!
Power button and volume down to go to flashing mode.... You need ODIN and you need to find your stock rom...
Bet you didn't check if your bootloaders were locked... This is probably why you have trouble now... You need to read first, then when you understand it, reread it to make sure....
Thanks for your reply.. U maybe right.. i wasn't able to read everything right carefully.. But do you know how can i repeat the process since I'm using Odin but unfortunately do not recognized it now? What will I do? .............Thank you
do you get anything from the tab after going to download mode ?

[Q] Hard Bricked. Jig no response..Am I no luck?

Good morning guys.
I was using this forum for alot of information but yesterday I had a trouble on my captivate.
I was using 3 button ODIN to flash rom and somehow my phone got stuck in the blank screen, the button combination didn't work and I have no way to go to either download mode or recovery mode..
I searched about jig and got one from ebay. It worked great on my friend's galaxy but it didn't do anything on mine. My battery has been fully charged. I'm really out of options to do now..
Am I fully f-ed up..? All I wanted to do was install gingerbread on it..
Any help will be appriciated.. thank you.
It sounds like your hard bricked. But, search for "Am I Bricked?" By Adam Outler in the development section. It will help you figure out if its a hard brick, or something you can recover from.
If it turns out that you're hard bricked... try looking here...

After that phone isnt starting.
The weird thing is i have seen people who brick their phone, the phone atleast starts with a blank screen, in my case the phone doesnt start at all
Please Help me

Hard Brick,only solution is to go to service center.What did you do exactly? And...you sure you pressed the right combinations for DL mode?
The Mokee-Dhamaal Rom.
I gave it to the service center today. I didnt tell them i rooted and this happened.Just told them phone isnt starting
If it gets Hard bricked will it ever recover ? or the samsung guys can fix it?
and it was just normal Flash.. i have flashed 100's of ROM.. upgraded to 4.04.. downgraded...
but don't know what wrong did i do
Isnt it wierd Its just doesnt start .. means I think if its a software problem atleast it should start with a blank screen ?

Your motherboard could have died.

No I didnt
What is the exact model of your SGA?
GT 5830
Try
Try to install other rom with all the wipes. Sorry for my bad english
your best bet is a service centre, tell them that kies did it
take battery out, do the download combination at the same time as putting the battery back in,,, iv had my phone not turn on after doing some stuff with cwm

[Q] Did i brick my phone ?

Hey guys,
i have a big problem with my Samsung GALAXY ACE GT-S5830i.
My screen is always stuck at GALAXY ACE GT-S5830i and it just wont go away, i dont know how to fix it. I am using this phone for 1 week and i already brick it or something.
This is the video i was trying to follow :
/watch?v=PFeXXWM-0Xg
(cant post links yet, just add that after youtube.com/ )
I did all the steps he said (under video are all the steps).
I rooted my phone
I tryed to install ClockWorkMod 5 but i got somekind of error i dont remember
And then i got into CyanogenMod 9 ,it installed all right but then when i restarted my phone whole hell gone wrong...
I can get into recovery mode, i cant get into download mode .....
I really need help with this guys, and yes i know i am stupid but i will never do it again.
Please help
Doesn't looks like its bricked if its showing S5830i on the screen, just a soft brick though.
You need to read more mate, that CM9 rom is for S5830 only, not S5830i.
These are both very different models, dunno why samsung gave them the same name.
There is no custom roms for S5830i yet, and you cannot use any rom built for S5830.
You can just flash a stock firmware via Odin and your phone will be back online.
Here read this tut, specially the Odin part.

Read this too if you mess again ever, just use the S5830i button combo for download mode instead of ace's.

Cheers mate, i will try this and let you know what will happen.
The problem is now my pc dont detect usb cable, so i cant copy files/zip to my sd card, before was all working fine but now i cant enable my usb connection
Mate sorry but i am little noobish for this...
Would you mind if you tell me step by step what to do....i mean i just dont know what to do
All i can say is that since all this mess i cant use (phone-pc usb cable) ...my pc just dont show up memory card.
Please help
You can use a card reader, or any other phone as a card reader.
Steps are clearly given in the tutorial by ickkyy, and further flashguide through odin is there at sammobile.com along with all the files you'll need with Odin.
Stop panicking, just read the tut once, and follow it, you'll recover easy.
Wow its fixed i am so happy thanks mate
Good to know mate :good:
Be careful in the future man, don't flash things not meant for your phone....
Yeah i will not
But are there like any themes or addons or roms for my phone ? Cuz i would really like to change this default one...
Just one rom, its released today by team cooper, check the dev section for retribution rom.

WRONG SECTION!
To be lazy it's NOT ALLOWED on XDA forums! FIRST READ RULES and then read the posts completely ten times and finally read it again!!! ...and if you understand them, you'll try any modifications
Are your device a available warranty yet? send it to the technical service
...if not, you can say goodbye to your phone

Bro, try to follow the guide. Just pressing Vol Down+ Power+ Home button is completely different from preparing your odin, removing battery, connecting phone to computer, inserting the battery and pressing Vol Down+ Power + Home button. This method can, in the best case scenario, force open Download Mode. Give it a try! You have nothing to lose but something to gain. If this doesn't work, guide also provides details on USB Jig which is your last option. Hope I helped

@info2shail2010 had the similar problem but he was able to go to Download mode using that guide. Sadly since that didn't work for you, your only option will be USB Jig. If that doesn't work either then buy a new phone

I haven't used USB Jig or even made one, so can't help you here. But you can use the following guide to make your own,

No bro... i am not able to go to in download mode... i told you... i was using Vol up + power + home key... i was mistakenly thinking it was downloading mode because it was connecting in Odin..... but u told me that is not downloading mode ... that is RamDump mode..... so .. i also cant go to download mode by pressing Vol down + power + home key.... its dead and not responding.. ....
The USB Jig method is just working for softbricked (it can boot, but looping) phones but can't go to recovery or download mode. So, it's not working for hardbricked phone

Bro, but the above guide says the USB jig for Samsung devices force the device into download mode so you can flash firmware over Odin and restore it to working order. Are you sure about what you said?
