[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] Galaxy Note totally Dead

Hi friends
I asking for help because yesterday i flash AOKP JB-4 in to my galaxy note N7000 but something went wrong in the middle of the rom install the screen put black and since then the phone is not working.
I'm going to explain all the process i made to flash the new rom
1. I install Clockwork Recovery in the galaxy note
2. I did a nandroid
3. I flash the rom with rom manager v5.0.2.1
4. The phone enter recovery wipe delvik and cache and started to install the rom
5. In the middle of the process the phone went black. is not the battery because it was 80% full
I have tried to enter recovery mode, download mode, use odin (but the PC dosent recognized the phone) i have also use [Linux] ModeDetect USBID Detector but this method is not compatible with the n7000
The phone was already rooted but the person who rooted didn't used odin so i don't now if that has something to do with the problem i have.
So is there anyone that can help me to safe the phone or is totally brick
Probably bricked since you didnt follow the warnings and instructions. There are methods in here somewhere were you might be able to partially revive the phone but loose some storage I believe.

You can try using PC odin in download mode to try installing a stock rom. If post update the phone is stuck in boot it probably means your phone is bricked.
Take it to samsung and if you are under warranty they will replace the mother board.
Happened to me. One of those unlucky ones who did factory wipe before the news spread out
Well he said I can't turn it so no download or battery charging mode just nothing. Black screen dead. Like I said when I flash a Rom that what happen to me and nothing no jig nothing made it possible to even turn on make the screen light up other then a motherboard exchange.

[Q] Probably hardbricked Galaxy Mini

I undesirably flashed recovery image on my Galaxy Mini with ROM Manager to probably unsupported CWM. No I can't boot my phone.
Odin and Kies can't detect my phone.
I can't access recovery or download mode.
Phone is rooted and installed Gingerbread 2.3 on it.
Is there way to unbrick it?
Yes, Samsung service center. Play dumb, and don't ever mention root, flashing or ROM manager

Donate 2$ for galaxy fit so they can get their JB and ics

^ This is not the right way to ask for galaxy fit donations. Especially at this thread. You have no idea how mind gets ****ed when your phone gets hard bricked.
Take it to a repair shop and ask them to do a usb jig, to get your phone into download mode.

Use Galaxy Mini riff jtag box which'll surely unbrick it.

If your phone shows a PC and a phone close it and then press volume up and power key. It will show you FOTA updating.It will restart and then it will work again...
If I helped you please press the THANKS button.

i managed to make it jvu.. then went to make it jw4
now i can't even enter download mode.. screen stopped working or wtf..
Take out the battery for 1min.
Try removing the battery and then try the 3 button combo to enter download mode. I thing Odin failed because when you tried to install F4 it changed partitions and when you wanted to downgrade to jw4 you did not repartition with 512 pit.
When you enter download mode remember to install the 3 file stock rom with 512 pit and repartition checked.
After installing the stock rom before proceeding with jellybean remember to backup your efs folder ( you can search xda dev how to do that)
I strongly recommend going with Cyanogenmod 10 stable. Its very fast and with the latest semaphore kernel runs like a beast.

after i made it jvu i wanted to make it jw4.. it was doing something else.. i forgot the names now.. and then the screen just went off
removed the battery many times but nothing. i am charging the phone in case it's the battery :/ i closed also odin when i saw it was doing nothing..
i think i did a serious damage on the phone. If it gets fixed i will try cm10.. right now.. nothing :/
I think Odin crashed my phone
because i changed 3-4 custom roms in some hours..
i saw some threads about how to put it back in recovery mode but nothing..
screen is black.. not responding at all : (
I think your battery died in the middle of the flashing process. When you charge the battery does it show the battery indicator charging ?

nothing at all..
Then basically your battery died in the middle of flashing process, you can try with another full battery and try to enter download mode by using the 3 button combo. If it does not it means you have to use a USB jig to access download mode. Once you access download mode remember to have a fully charged battery before flashing

so when the battery dies in the middle of flashing... i can't charge it?
Possibly not, you have to try with a fully charged battery before flashing anyway. I think if you touch the phone while on power and the battery is warm maybe is charging. If there is no sign of life or there is no heat at all maybe is not charging. You still have to try to enter download mode with a fully charged battery, keep trying.

i changed battery with external charger and tried putting it in download mode..
nothing though : /
i don't know what to do
You have to try the dowload mode using an USB jig.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551
You can't broke this mode by flashing your phone, if an USB Jig don't work, you really have an hardware problem.
my pc makes sounds when i connect the phone.. then the sound that it got dc'ed
i don't think i will find a jig here.. nor i can make one.
i will give it to samsung service center and pay them..
if it gets fixed
1 week and more without a phone lol
Where you're from..? If you're from holland i have a jig for you... if not you can order one from the internet i paid €3,75 for it
GT-I9001 4.1.2 JB by Invendor
same happened to me
i live in India i have the same problem tried repairing my phone but no result.....i gave it to a repairer he tried the riff box repair but nothing happened....and when i am charging the phone it doesn't heats.... if you get something done please update it on this thread, while i'm trying too
i guess i have to find a shop and buy a jig : P
you can order the jig on ebay... i got one for my phone... in continuation of the discussion going on, my phone is bricked as well... nothing is working... neither the 3 combo button or the JIG... also, when i plugin the charger, no indication is showing up... can anyone please suggest what can be done for this?
I checked with Samsung.. they have asked me to get the motherboard replaced and it will cost around 8K...

[Q] HELP! i think i bricked my 5830D!

So I, (like apparently many other 5830D users) was having the bug where it would randomly restart for no apparent reason.
i read that froyo did not have this issue, and figured id give it a shot. i downloaded the ZSKC2 2.2.1 files and loaded them into odin with cooper_v1.0.ops, connected my phone and hit start.
it said it installed everything just fine, but when my phone went to reboot, it didnt.
it flashed a black, blank screen for maybe a second and that was it.
so i tried to go back into download mode on it so i could reinstall the firmware it had before, and i couldnt get it to work.
it would turn on the screen, flash the "downloading..." text for a second, and then turn off the screen. it was weird, because the text was white, not the yellow it always seemed to be. odin recognized my phone for that second, but that was it. once the display turned off, the connection went away. i've tried other usb ports, but no luck
is there any way i can fix this? or is my ace bricked for good? i have no warranty with it because i bought it used.
ive read about a USB jig, will that help?
please, any help at all would mean a lot!
1) You should have taken the bill & the warranty card from the owner you bought this phone.
Coming to the point, it appears to me that there might be a problem with your battery, but I ain't sure about this. Try using a different battery with your phone. Also, are you sure to have used the odin & stock rom for S5830D & not S5830 ? Check these aspects first. If you've got them right, then there'll be either a multi-package or a single package filed stock rom for your device. You can google for the exact odin flashing, try again to boot into download mode again & flash. If your phone fails again to go into the download mode, use the search option here on xda to find out the issue with your phone or the best thing to do would be go to the service centre & tell them that donno what went wrong & this happened.

okay, i tried the battery from my other phone and got it into download mode, i installed the stock rom and it is working again, but the reboot problem is still there!
is there any way to fix that? i have a feeling it might have something to do with the kernel, other roms still reboot and apparently froyo doesnt, the only thing common between all the gingerbread roms that i can think of is the kernel.
i have flashed S5830,T,L,B roms with no issues, but the reboot still occurs. cyanogen hasnt helped either, do you have any clues?

After flashing via odin, if you face a bootloop, reboot into stock recovery & do a factory reset & reboot now. It should work.

..but it is not tuck in a boot loop. its doing what the stock roms did; it'll boot into the rom fine, and you can use it, but once it goes to sleep the phone restarts itself.

If you are having this issue with the froyo, try it out with GB. If the issue prevails, go to service centre. Sorry for repeating the same thing again & again but that's the best I could say of it...
