I unbricked my phone by emergency flashing to V4 using the guide. I was stuck in test mode. Is my phone completely standard now? Should I do anything else before sending it back?
Try to boot into CMW by holding power and volume down. If it loads cmw then you're not stock. Or if you are able to update software over the air.

It asked for a factory reset when I did the power and volume. I cannot get updates over the air. I must me back to stock.
I'd you can't get updates then you're not stock. You are most likely rooted still. Try running the All in One that SPC Hicks made. And un root with that.

Use the volume and power button to get to where it asks about factory resetting. Then confirm twice. If you factory reset the phone then you're good. if it boots to cwm, then you still have some work to do.
To check for root, download root checker from the market.

I did the factory reset as you suggest and sent it back to big red. Hopefully now issues with my return.

I was having some issues with my phone shutting down so I attempted to wipe and use rds to install the stock firmware. Now I am stuck in this sticky bit fastboot. Am I screwed or is there an option to fix this? Thanks.

Nope, not a brick. You probably have a working button combination, but the recovery simply isn't there. You need to boot into download mode and flash a kernel.

thanks that fixed it. my phone is now awesome.
I have a stock Android 2.3.6 galacy exhibit 4g and when I boot up into recovery, an update is automatically found, installed and then reboots the phone doing the same thing every time recovery is booted into. My problem is, I cannot find this update package in my internal sd storage to save my life nor do I even know what the update package would be called. Can anyone please help?

I'm not certain but it might be called update.zip, because if I remember that's the only name that will flash in the stock recovery. As for finding it, just try searching for update.zip. it should be on the root of the sdcard(no folder) because that's the only way I thought it could install. Any ways I'm probably wrong but at least you can try.

I'm not sure really what CSC code is but I think your talking about stock Odin flash able package. That should get you back to stock and flash the stock recovery and wipe everything. However i think it will bootloop after it flashes so you will have to boot into recovery and wipe data. If so check out the wiki. There is all the info you need. I have another idea though. I haven't done this myself but you should be able to push a clockworkmod recovery.img to the phone from a terminal if you have adb also in the wiki. I can't view your pic because I don't have a Facebook but maybe someone else can. Good luck

That is the stock update pushed by Samsung from what it sounds like. Also sounds like a data packet might have dropped during the downloading of it causing a bad install. For simplicity get cwm Installed and boot thru that and flash from cwm. Wiki has all the info needs.
Wiki please read completely on rooting and install of cwm. Suggest 6.0.1.2 version. Personal preferences on that.

Problem solved. I just randimly pushed the 3 buttons on the phone before the rebooting part came up in the script and finally got the menu, took may tries to get to that point but as soon as I got to that point, I was quick to install clockworkmod successfully. Now problem is gone. Hope this thread maybe helps someone else

I have a similar problem. Which 3 buttons are we talking about? Power+Home+VolUp?
Easiest way, take out battery, push volume up and power, insert battery while holding, when Samsung appears release only power, when the android guy with package appears press menu
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda app-developers app
Make sure you push the "Menu" capacitive button (left in the row of four buttons below the screen) when you see the green Android guy and the box. That will get you into the stock recovery menu.
I had to reboot into recovery a couple of times because I missed that part. What a pain!
I dont know too much about firmware, but my LG Thrill 4g is boot looping and staying on the lg logo screen and the homescreen buttons will illuminate. I can get into the Clockworkmod recovery mode and Ive wiped everything but the phone still won't start up. It isn't in usb debugging mode, and the hard reset is not working at all. Please can someone help me?

Yes I have, but removed it thereafter, okay it isnt bricked anymore, it starts up now. But since i factory reset it and am now trying to redo everything on the phone, it looks a little glitched, the text messages dont come through, i cant see the text on the menus and it looks to me like the phone itself is glitched, anything i can do? Maybe I didnt fix it prperly?
Are you trying to flash a rom? In your first post you said it isn't in USB debugging mode, is this correct?
