[Q] Help Needed in Unbricking Samsung Galaxy Pop (GT S5570) - Samsung Galaxy Mini

Please help me out on this....
(Sorry if I posted in wrong section)
I successfully upgraded my Pop to gingerbread 2.3.6 and rooted it. It was working fine for some days after which It got messed up
when I updated the titanium backup app from the market. The app asked for some su permissions and suddenly the screen went blank.
After that I realized that its a hard bricked. The screen is blank whatever I do. I searched for many tutorials to unbrick it but no fruitful results yet.
I tried a lot to enter download mode and after several attempts luckily the three button combo worked and it got shown in ODIN on some port connected.
When I started the process of firmware upgrade it gets stuck in "Connection Setup Phase".
Does USB Jig method is worth trying in this situation ??
Pease tell me the solution of it. I am attaching the screenshot of the ODIN. Please Please Please help.
Thanks a lot in advance...

what is on your mobile screen download mode or something like phone--!--computer picture
ok whatever try this
close Odin, turn off mobile, start Odin and put files turn on mobile in download mode connect the cable and start flashing
PS : phone--!--conputer shows on the screen when upgrade get fail, not to worry it is just like another version of Odin
until you can light up the mobile its not a hard brick
I will suggest you to use firmware which are available without bootloader as you were previously on gb, just to remove the risk of hard brick

nothing on screen

First of all delet all drivers on pc and install them new, just to be on the save side! Then get firmware for your country i suggest you to use 4file pack no the 1file ones! Then get odin v4.38 put your device in download mode and conect to pc put all 4files in the right place in odin and start flashing!! It should not take longer then 6min!! Let odin finish when you see blue pass disconect and be lucky!!

Have you tried using a different port? Or a different cable? Also, try unchecking the reset time option on ODIN.

USB jig only boots mobile in download mode
but you are saying you can sometimes boot in download mode so no use of USB jig is required
you should take it to samsung

Weird. I dont know how you could brick your phone with titanium backup app.
Your battery could be dead. Charge your phone for 2 hours.
Then try using Odin using a different USB Port.

Nop I charged my battery full with another battery charger before using ODIN but still the problem persist.
I think I have to take it to Samsung service center but my warranty is over so I think they will take a huge amount
to fix it.
Anyone still having some idea on this...
Pease help...

I gave my phone to service centre (warranty is over ) before few days and they told than some connector in the circuit is damaaged and need to be replaced with new
one and its cost is 4278 INR . Can u believe that ??? 4278 bucks. Its better to buy a new phone.

You should have tried another stock firmware or another USB port when your phone luckily entered download mode. Same problem happene with me & get solved by flashing another stock firmware.

[Q] I9000 dead since flash

Hi,
I made a mistake in flashing PDA file of my i9000. The flash stopped after 19 seconds, it was too fast.
About my Galaxy S:
Power button : nothing happen
Download mode : nothing happen
Battery removed/inserted : nothing happen
To resume, whatever I do, screen keep staying black. Nothing display.
Is there anything I can do?
1. USB Jig with a 300K resistor : useless or not?
2. Send it to someone with a RIFF box : useless or not?
Thank you
Weird, usually the SGS is practically un-brickable. I've personally done it tons of flashing to it sometimes with catastrophic results but it always bounced back.
Try sticking ur charger in and let it sit like that for a while. Then try to start the phone. I really doubt bad flashing can fry it. If you get a boot-loop while the screen is blinking release the power button from the starting 3 button combo ( power+down+home) and it should enter download mode.
1. Are you able to charge the phone?? Yes or No
2. What PDA file did you flash? What were you trying to flash?
3. What all things you checked/unchecked in ODIN before pressing the start button to flash?
4. What FW were you on??

1. No way to charge phone
2. I choosed same file for PDA/Phone with i9000XXJVT rom
3. Re-partition/Auto Reboot/F.Reset time checked
Flash lock/Bootloader unchecked
4. FW was Android 2.1, basic one.
Screen stay empty whatever I do, no reaction from the phone.
Get a USB jig. It does wonders most of the time when you think your device is bricked.
USB JIG works fine every time

Re-partition was checked, but did you select a pit file?
If not, that's likely the issue.
USB jigs work great. I bought a couple pre-built ones from Hong Kong just in case I bugger something up.
Huh, was not aware of these USB jigs till this thread. Will definitely be buying one as I flash a new ROM each 3 or 4 days (addiction).

Samsung Galaxy S HARD BRICKED

Hello,
I tried to flash back to the stock ROM of Galaxy S and then install a new Jetpack 8.2 custom ROM.
Apparently, since I did a bad search on the internet on finding a stock ROM and pit file, i downloaded a pack from xda with the .pit file pda file phone file and CSC file.
I DONT REMEMBER which it was..i selected all the files from the pack through odin and re-partitioning was ticked (i saw it after the flash finished).
So when the processes was completed waited a bit and since the phone was not responding i pulled it out.
Now that's it.. The screen is black - wont power on - wont go into download mode - wont show battery charge while the USB cable is on - nothing (AND YES THE BATTERY IF FULLY CHARGED).
Is there anything i can do to fix it?
p.s: havent tried a usb jig but from searches i made on the internet and on xda forums ppl said it will prolly not work. are there any instruction on how to make one (link would be appriciated)?
Thanks in advance
Best option would be to try a Jig (you can buy one on ebay or dealextreme) and see if you can go into DL mode. Sometime the button combination for Download mode changes depending on the firmware. Try pressing the middle of the volume rocker and power at the same time.
If not wait for a Jib or build yourself one. There should be instruction in this forum on how to build one.
if the jig doesn't work, i would try and return it to the store you got it. I know its a long shot, but the same thing happened to me and I brought it back and she just gave me a new phone! Its worth a shot!

Worth a try. Just tell them it suddenly stopped working and you have no idea what's wrong. It's not like they can power it on and see that you failed flashing it or something. and even if they use a jig they can only get to download mode and reflash it...
even if they say no... a jig costs like $1.5 on eBay. search for "i9000 jig".
Insert if, press the power button and poof, you're in download mode,
the thing is that the phone is not under any warranty or something and the store i got it is far away now !!
JTAG service if you're in the UK: http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/
The JIG won't work when you brick with a black screen (i.e. bootloader corruption, so no boot at all).
Your only solution is to JTAG it or sadlly, throw it away...
I used a I9003 ROM to flash it !!
Maybe there is still a solution?
also from what i've found on forum sometimes the JIG helped ppl who had a black screen to go into download mode. so how can you be so sure? @ Dan_Aykroyd

As long as your bootloader is intact, the jig will get you to the download mode
Wrongly flashed i9000 with i897 rom has been confirmed to work with the jig, but i don't know i9000 with i9003 rom...
Or you can apply the unbrickable mod if your phone's warranty was voided already, if not, send it back to the shop.

Had that also yesterday putting a new ROM on my GS. The process of writing the PDA halted.. Black screen, no way to start it up en no screen indications of charging etc..
I removed it from my USB, Removed the battery a few times did the three way download mode trick several times and finally I got the download mode screen from where I successfully loaded the new ROM.
So try a few times.. even when you get a black screen !!
let me be clear once more..i downloaded a complete I9003 rom pack from xda... some guy posted..i just missed that it was I9003 and not I9000..
and on odin re-partition was clicked..but the process was completed successfully even thou after that the phone wont start or go into download mode :/
i used not only PDA and PIT files but 2 more was included as well :/ so what i am asking is if this could really have damaged the bootloader or not

Of course you're bound to brick it flashing a firmware for a phone completely different to yours...get a jig if you're confident or take it to a service centre

Try jig first.
Next try JTAG or UNBRICKABLE mod.
Then Try a service centre.
in case it wokes up.. anyone has links for stock rom and pit to flash with odin?
thanks again
There are some ways, when already got into DL mode is best to reflash with 812.pit file and then again with 512.pit file. After I bricked my phone and got "death" screen (God I was crying) I found way of taking up DL mode (hopefully SGS is pretty-hard to brick). Others than that try to connect to your phone via usb (remember to first inset usb and then battery) and hold ALL of the buttons on your phone. Screen must flash about 3 times and then release volUp to get DL mode combo. I hope that will help you as me.

See response in other thread:
If you are 100% sure you cannot enter download mode you really have a problem. Did you try checking the battery? And if you are 100% sure - search the forum, there's some posts about using a JIG to fix it, but most seem to have gone back to Samsung afaik...
What did you do to get your phone in this mode?! Give is some more info on what happened...
Thanks for your fast reply, please see the below details

Try removing the battery and charge cable for a while (at least 30 minutes or so). I've not heard this happened before... and try charging with another cable and/or with another charger (for instance a laptop or some other usb device)...

Never install mods, addons, ROMs, kernels or anything made for whole Another phone.
Yes, that's the problem. I'm very sorry to tell you but you just destroyed your phone's boot.img by installing wrong one. And the wrong boot.img wont let you do anything on your phone. There's no way you could enter to recovery or download mode or anything.
I have no idea about the JIG thing but when I hard bricked my phone, I took it to the reseller and got it fixed for free of charge
Is there a golden card method
Any idea if there is a golden card method to create an boot image to let the phone start again

Your phone is kind of dead now. You can't push a boot image to it 'cause computer doesn't recognize it properly. Bricked means your phone is just as useful as a brick. It wont turn on in any way and there's nothing else your phone would do.
The JIG costs only 2$ , if that doesn't get u into download mod then u can only revive ur phone with JTAG .

My advice is go see if u can repair it for free (warranty) , if not u can try the JIG to get u into download mode so u can flash via Odin (there are a lot of clips about JIGs on youtube) , if all that doesn't work JTAG is ur only hope (also there are videos about it on youtube).

Better Soluction
It ocurred me and I go to Movistar Shop and I said that it doesn't boot and I don't know anything and they give me another one with the guarantee.
Try and if not try with JIG ,
me 2, think you installed the wrong rom on the wrong phone..MIUEI rom is not out for the GT I9001, when i bricked my phone =1 medecin= www.broodplank.net (and check how to unbrick your I9001-article)
As the partition layout and even the filesystem is totally different I think you wiped away your bootloader and maybe also radio firmware. If this is your actual situation, it is ver very VERY unlikely you will get your phone alive with a jig. Don't know the partition layout of a 9000 but even the hardware is completely different. Not nucb hope left, very sorry.

Galaxy Note fails while booting (yellow triangle)

Hi there.
I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy Note since I wanted to make it rootable.
When I bought it, I could use any simcard inside, so it is "unlocked".
Yesterday, I wanted to use my phone to root it but some files can't be downloaded via WWW.MULTIUPLOAD.COM (i guess it is because of what happened to MEGAUPLOAD).
So, one of my first questions is : is USB DEBUGGING activated when using the Galaxy note for the first time or not at all? (I didn't activate it when using my Galaxy Note before flashing it)
Second, I have used Odin to flash a file (PDA slot), the file was hard to find but google could help (i'm just meaning that some links here seem to be "broken" on multiupload). The flash was fine and the phone boot back... to a yellow triangle.
No way to change it.
No backup from the rom, but I remember it is a KKA.
I 've looked in that thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350960) to find everything that could help me, but the file is no more on multiupload
I tried via that thread, too :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1370156 , but the problem remains
Third, I don't have any jug usb to use and no CMW installed nor loaded.
Could a kernel help to solve the problem about the yellow triangle, using ODIN, or not? Or is it better to use a fully functionnal rom, as a KKA?
Any help/comment would be much appreciated
N.B : sorry for my english that can be "poor" sometimes :s
Can you exactly give the file name, which you have used to flash PDA section? and size of it

N.B : sorry for my english that can be "poor" sometimes :s

1. It doesn't matter while flashing using PC Odin.
2. Are you sure about which ROM you flashed ( Suspecting you have flashed Custom ROM)
3. Their is way to remove Triangle (!) , you should use JIG
follow the link for more details.

Thanks for your quick replies
So, I wanted to flash that, using ODIN:
Recovery ClockworkMod Odin flashable.Tar
But on XDA, the link about it is in fact Superuser-3.0.6-efgh-signed.zip.
Did I miss something??
The file I could find using google was about 8Mo and the flash was quite fast.
(I used it for the PDA part)
I also referred to that thread :

When No Any other method works to Root your device, use this
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note that, this will downgrade your ROM to KJ1, after that you can update it.
Download: http://www.multiupload.com/YB9EL8D8O3
- Make sure your SGN is NOT connected to your computer
- Reboot your SGN into "download mode" (Vol down + Home + Power))
- Start ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select the "SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar" file
- Connect the SGN to your computer
- Make sure "repartition" is NOT checked
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot TWICE
- Done.
Now you have your device Rooted, Install Mobile Odin Pro n update your device to any new ROM with Mobile Odin

using the file for KKA, but then, next flashing, the yellow triangle...
I'm working right now but I can repost here in a few hours the exact name of the file I have found using google that I could not find over here.
Anyway, do you think I can "repair" it without any JIG USB?
And yes, it was on a custom rom (the phone is just new, only a few hours in my hands ) but it's not my first one (i could flash a HD2 and the Samsung Tablet with no problems...

This thing you did wrong, I have made lot effort to update Rooting guide here, still somebody How can find this guide i dont know.
Basically you have flashed with Netchip method, which was very first appeared, but later netchip also said, to not to use, b'coz it causing raise Flash counter
as well yellow triangle.
Now onwards remember, NEVER use PC ODIN to Flash Any Custome ROM/Kernel.
I am updating link here soon, how to reset your counter. You requires JIG for that
Edit : here is guide how to reset binaru count, n remove yellow triangle
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354888
-------------------
BTW till you get JIG, just go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 and download and flash ROM using PC odin(here it is stock ROM u can use it safely). you will get your phone working. later you can reset counter with JIG
Download my guide from here, how to update ROM, you can use Updating ROM with PC Odin section from guide.
Many thanks again, dr.ketan for such reply so fast
Hmmmm then I will have to wait for a JIG. I will order a JIG, it seems the price is not so expensive.
Thanks again for your comments and help, much appreciated

My 2 cents about that question, but if I have a message saying that there is an error while turning on the phone now :
Firmware upgrade encoutered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
The problem is, when using Kies (for Windows), it is looking for the Galaxy Note, and, even if it is connected via USB, nothing happens, it's looking long, long, long, time, then, it says that it can not find it.
So, is a JIG still required?

See, JIG is required for totally different reason.
Your issue regarding, not connecting kies / Booting phone, won't be solved by JIG.
Jig can b use in two condition. One when you are unable to enter in download mode. I think, you dont have this issue
another To reset counter, for which you require JIG in your case.
Error you are facing right now during booting of device, can be solved by Reflashing ROM. You can flash any stock ROM with PC Odin, shud be enough to solve it.
Now regarding use of JIG, just enter in download mode, check Lt upper corner of devoce, it will have number of flash you have performed, i think in your case it must be 1 or more. which in normal case should be zero. Only To reset that counter, you needs Jig.
Thanks again.
Well, I download another stock rom but I got a "fail" (red color) above "id:com", when flashing on ODIN.
I am using Windows7 and tested the compatibility mode, the problem remains.
I have .md5 file that I put on PDA part. Then I click on Start but nothing, except the "fail" message.
When turning off the phone and on, I got the other message, said in my previous post :
"Firmware upgrade encoutered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
So, Am I missing something.
About the download mode, the number is 7 in fact.
Oh I remember the file I wanted to flash via ODIN : netchip-cwm-update2.tar
It seemed to work just because the phone turned off and I got a "green" message that said that it was ok. (PASS).
I read one of your thread, when nothing works, so that man should go here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18981227&postcount=4
but the file (link) is not working now, so I can not get the file to test :s
But since then, I can not boot on Android anymore...
Yes unfortunately link is down since 2 days
Ya thats i guessed when i read you have used superuser zip, i have said earlier in 1 msg, you have used netchip.
Anyway, once go to recovery (vol up +home+power)n wipe data, clear cache, clear dwlvic caxhe.
Then put phone in download mode. Close firewall/antivirus on pc, open odin, connect device with download mode(vol down+home+power), if id com glow yellow, thn proceed with start
Gudluck

The main problem is that, too.
I can not enter Recovery, I got the yellow triangle.
I can only go in download mode, and when turning off and on the phone, the message said above :s
is JIG the only way to solve all that?
is my phone "blocked"? I am trying to test another stock rom, I'll give it a try and let you guess what happens.
EDIT 22:37:
The flash with that rom (N7000XXLA4_N7000DREKL1_DRE) has failed, even if it is a stock one.
Can I try to use any other rom from another country? Before I tried to flash the rom, I saw it was a KKA. Can I try so with a LA3 or something else, still stock one?
Oh man, that's so bad....
I think I found the problem...
I am using Windows7 64 bits.
My wife is on WindowsXP and I am using Odin on her netbook, and it's quite better !
the flashing is going on.
Hey !!!! that's all good !!!!! ^^'
My Galaxy Notes is working again ^'^'
Maybe should it be mentionned to be careful when using Windows7 64 bits, if some other members would have the same problem when flashing their roms?
Congrates !
ya it is common problem(win7), many time it has been discussed , but it is not that everytime it not works, but it happens in few cases.
When reading your answer yesterday, I thought I might had a chance to make my Galaxy Note working again without JIG.
Now I've downloaded Samsung drivers, for Windows7 64 bits, and I can flash with no problem. I'm backing up and can use CWM
Thanks again for your help and answers
I had the same problem, but then I decided to use the ORIGINAL usb cable and see: it did the trick !!!. Even on Windows 10 64bit !.

Can't boot, getting a yellow triangle...

First of all, I'm sorry if the answer is somewhere, I searched, but I "only" found many threads with suggestions for JIG use... The three stickies of Q&A also don't present related information I believe...
After some stuck situation in odin, I can't boot the phone. I get a yellow triangle, between a phone and a computer icons. Even if I try to charge the Phone, I get that static screen.
There's anything I can do without using JIG? I cannot enter download mode (at least with the traditional way), I always get that screen. As fair as I know, the phone is still 2.1 with official firmware (i was trying to apple the 2.3.6)

you are still in download mode, without a proper ROM, so just connect with ODIN and it will function once USB cable is plugged in and flash the correct i9000 gingerbread ROM for your location

follow the procedure on My Android solutions, link below for connection problems, or else flash with a lap top or on a another PC. But First power down the phone, remove battery, remove EXT SD card and SIM Card and power up again using combo keys for download mode

Install drivers of your phone to your laptop or PC. If you have correct drivers it should pick your phone straight way.

I already have the drivers, they were installed back then when I tried to update the phone, so they are present now.
The problem is, I cant get out of the black screen of death.. in fact, I'm not sure if this model/version can enter download mode through combo keys, yesterday when the phone was borrowed to me, I tried and I couldn't, so I was using adb reboot download shell command - but anyway, the drivers are there.

Then try on different PC. It might have corrupted. If you can see the triangle it means it is on download mode so it should connect to PC.

Yes. I'm wondering if my Google Nexus S drivers didn't not conflicted with the drivers I installed. I don't know.
Well, I'll try with another laptop, if that don't work, is it advisable to use a jig connector from a "trusted" seller? I'm asking because I already saw a comment or two along the about blewed (is this a word?) up phones.
Hey mate had the same issue your gonna have to get a jig as a lot of the i9000's came with corrupted boot loaders so you can't get into download without the jig and the screen your on isn't download mode I know which one your talking about with the phone the triangle and the computer

Do I risk blowing up the phone using JIG?
No the jig basicly makes it so a certain voltage signal is sent to the CPU triggering download mode no risk at all

I tried with another laptop with very well configured drivers, and didn't worked. Still didn't detected by odin. When I tried with another galaxy it works, after entering download mode...
I'm not admired, because before the brick, I was not able to enter the download mode with como keys, I shouldnt be surprised that does not happen now..
Follow this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494493
1) Uninstall your drivers, and re-install the ones following the instructions and link above.
2) Pull your battery out for a few mins and then put it back in and go into download mode (power, volume down, home button).
3) Download stock + odin from the link above, and start odin, and connect phone to pc through usb.
Your phone should be detected -- this is where you got stuck right? I'll assume if its detected, the rest you can figure out (plus its in the link above)
Good luck bro!

That would be a good suggestion if could get into download mode Tried everything, including some other solutions that I found around the Web. Looks like the bootloader was corrupted since the beginning, and now that I need it more than ever (because the black screen of death phone-!-pc), I stucked until (hopefully) i get a JIG... Already bought one, have to wait a few days to receive it. Until then, I'm going to use a old nokia.
Jig is only option then install a stock gingerbread that will fix 3 button combos
