try holding vol down+home+power button and see if you can still go into download mode.
if yes, then download stock gingerbread and flash it through PC odin (link can be found in Dr. Ketan's thread)
don't try to do things too fast else you'll end up doing something wrong again, have patience.
if this doesn't work, others im sure will post more help.
thanks

5) then i went onto something like external downloads
6) clicked on the aokp on my sd card

When u r on official/stock ICS, you need to flash/install safe kernels like Hydracore, Speedmode, Philz etc first..only then u should flash custom roms/wipe data/factory reset..so ur phone is now not going to recovery mode as well as download mode?

I think you have hard bricked ur phone.. this link explains about the eMMC brick bug http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1633938
If your phone is under warranty, you can try claiming warranty from Samsung..

your recovery, was is clockworkmod or android 3e?
How much was the battery before flashing the rom.?

battery was 57% and it was clockworkmod

This is why it makes sense to go through the forum, ask about and carefully read instructions before you do anything you are unsure of. Flashing a custom rom without root from stock ICS. That's the worst scenario I've seen. In any case, seems like you did hard brick your phone. If you're under Samsung warranty, send it to them, they will replace the chip. If you're not under warranty, you can try using some of the guides floating around, search for revive bricked phone, go through the threads and look at other people's results. But that's only if you're not under warranty, cause at this point you can't do anything else to make it worse.

once they a charged battery in the note. If that also does not have any effect on the phone. that is no download mode, then it's hard bricked and motherboard is the only option

Cheers man, i have sent my phone back to my carrier saying it just went dead. If unsuccesful, then i will do as you told me. I will let you know how it goes

hopefully they will be able to sort it out under warranty as the phone was not rooted and possibly a wrong file installation has messed up the phone

Bricked Galaxy Ace

I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I don't think so... Anyway I had a perfectly working Galaxy Ace coming with stock Android 2.3.4. So I tried rooting it, and I did see the superuser icon but I couldn't apps into the SD card. So I ignored it and downloaded a custom rom and entered recovery mode, wiped data and cache first and rebooted. Then I installed the rom in recovery mode and it said installation successful but when I rebooted I got stuck at the "GALAXY ACE" page and I noticed a weird small blue triangle at the top left hand. And nothing happens. Please help it's nearly brand new! My parents don't know yet... If there is a way to use the com and download the stock rom please provide step by step instructions that was my first smartphone so much help would be appreaciated!

Am not an expert but i would take battery out then put back in holding volume down key home key and power key at sametime to put into download mode then flash your stock rom via odin to get it back running again
have you done a datwipe in cwm after installing? try that first
Hey there!
Before We get to ODIN
Start phone in recovery mode ( Center Button + Power Button ) and then:
- Do a Factory Reset
- Do Wipe Cache
Then Reboot
If he boots great!
If not and still remains at ACE screen do this:
1st - Download Odin 4.38 (http://www.4shared.com/rar/UqBhp5Qd/Odin_Multi_Downloader_v438_www.html)
2nd - Download Cooper.ops (http://hotfile.com/dl/138852983/36a55ea/Cooper_v1.0.ops.rar.html)
3rd - Go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ and search firmware for your s5830
Then choose the rom that suits you best (download one from your country if possible)
After the above steps are done open odin
At "option" select - "One Package, Auto-Reboot And Protect OPS"
At "select OPS" - choose "Cooper.ops" (The file you´ve downloaded)
At bottom is "One Package" - In here put the file of the room you´ve dowloaded
Finaly put phone in download mode (Vol. Down + Power Button) and connect it to your PC.
Wait for odin to recognize your phone, a yellow sign will light up, ( you need samsung kies in your computer so odin recognize your phone)
And then hit "Start"
Wait about five minutes at the end your phone should reboot by itself
And that should be it
If your phone reboots but stuck ate samsung boot animation.
Remove Battery
Put it back again
Turn your phone into recovery mode ( Center Button + Power Button )
Do Wipe Factory/Reset and Wipe cache, reboot,
and your good to go!
I rebooted I got stuck at the "GALAXY ACE" page and I noticed a weird small blue triangle at the top left hand
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the blue triangle isn't this CWM 5?
or if can you get to recovery mode try flashing the original stock recovery first
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1437426
then install a stock rom with Odin
and boot from the stock recovery to fix the phone boot
if recovery is working you should fix the phone easily with stock rom.
installing a stock rom will install the stock recovery by itself!
so no need to flash stock recovery before flashing stock rom!
Can someone please explain what went wrong here in the first place?

Bricked Note

I have been searching for a solution, but haven't found any..
I flashed to kingdroid rom a while ago from stock GB with abyss kernel. Everything went fine, and later wanted to try a new rom.
So I wiped the data and factory reset in CWM and tried to restore the old stock GB. I don't know if anything went wrong in that process, but now I can't even turn on the phone? I can't boot up CWM either?

Can you enter download mode??If so flash any GB rom.If the flash is getting stuck at factoryfs or somewhere for long than 15 mins..you have superbricked your phone by doing a wipe.Only way is to replace the mobo or trying this
yeah go on download mode. Use odin pc. It will raise the counter, but its much better than a brick note.. Hehe
Download mode is volume down, home key and turn on key right?
Doesnt work.. how long is I supposed to hold it in?
And what is a MOBO?
Easy ... Don't Panic

The First Thing you did was right, since you did the wipe using the AbyssKernel kernel, witch was safe and away from the HardBrick Thing around the Stock ICS Kernel.
But what you did wrong, is that you did wipe and restore using the Kernel inside the rom you used, wich of course was in cause !!!! so Here is what you will do, just Follow the Steps in My following Post, and you are done

Sorry for not being that bright in all this.. But how can I do all the instructions when I can't turn the phone on? I can't find the sdcards on my computer either when i connect the phone to the computer
Sounds like you have a big paperweight. You need to somehow get it to a Samsung repair center to get the motherboard replaced. There's a thread in the General section that MIGHT help revive it, but no guarantees.
Always make sure you read, read, read before you flash anything. Like other people said, the restore is what bricked it.

If you're pushing the power button, you are turning it on. If you are holding down volume up/down + power + home button you are trying to put it in download/recovery.

Check battery. make sure it still has power. Pull out and leave out 5 minutes and replace it back as well.
Then turn it on and try to enter download mode (Home volume-down and power) and connect it to PC odin (even in case the screen does not turn on) and see the yellow box is there. If there is, you can flash kernel that has CWM as well, and there is hope to revive it.
If you cannot get odin to see it, then SS service is the only way.

Well Of course, If your phone is not ON, it won't show any usb storage on the PC.
Don't Give up Yet !!!
Are you sure your phone has enough battery charge,
Not Sure? well Do this :
- Keep your phone under AC Battery Charger (no USB charging) for at least 45 min.
- Take Off the Battery for at least 10s seconde,
put it back, Then try to to enter to download mode directly : Vol down + Power + Home Button at the same time untill you see the Yellow Dowload Logo, Don't Try to turn your phone on by Pressing the power Button as Normally, It Simply won't turn on !!
Keep taking the Battery Off and Back untill it works, believe me this happened before.

Iám new as a member here but not new on reading here on this forum.
Want to post fast how i brickt my phone with ics and kernel problems and wipe going wrong.
Cwm still working but nothing is going anymore.
In cwm flash a franco kernel (i used Franco kernel 10 because had it on my sd card) then reboot into recovery and flash the Abys kernel.
Reboot into recovery and install your rom or restore an backup you made.
I hope sthis works for all.

Do you mean you cant power the device ON ?
What happens when you connect usb cable ? Does anything light up, Does your computer 'beep' to notify you of a connected device ?
Have you took battery out and reinserted ? or just left it to charge for around 10 mins before trying to power on ?
Also, What ROM + Kernel were you on before you did the wipes in recovery ?
Ahh yes, in my panic i miss typed.
O cant power on i have tried taking the battery out etc. but with no luck.
I just plugged it into my laptop pc and not a thing
I was on stock ICS (uk) and i don't think i changed the kernel either
I had just rooted and did the super user thing
I also probably didnt fully install CMW as i ran the CWM.zip from external sd from recovery each time.

Thanks but I don't know if that will work as i can't get the phone to power on (as far as i can tell) and it doesn't seem to do anything when i plug it into the laptop.
No ping no beep.
It had about 60% power left when i did it so it has juice.
I am thinking might have to take it to carphonewhorehouse and tell them i was just doing a factory reset cos it had slowed down with all the apps and it reset while doing it and now won't turn on?

in this ERA of auto-root kernels, people still using CWM.zip...
probably should have just read some stickies. but too late...
if there is no response from the device, the pits are not going to work. only way is to get a replacement motherboard under warranty,
and as the device is non responsive.. they will not be able to detect anything about root.
Good Luck
Yeah i did some reading, but clearly not in the right place
back to the shop it goes. If you have a guide that you could point me to to get this doen the correct way then that would be much appreciated (if and whn i get a working replacement)

when you get the phone check what rom its on. just update to the latest ICS rom..(donot wipe).
download philz kernel for the rom you have updated to.
put it in the sd card
boot into recovery
and apply update from ext storage.> point to the kernel > install
thats it. your phone gets rooted, safe kernel and CWM inbuilt.
now you can follow the procedure in the CM10 rom to install. (The Safe Way)
Thanks!
I have just got back from CPW where the nice lady said that it looks like a hardware fault given what i had described so she is sending it off to be either mobo replaced o plain replaced.
I have emailed myself your guide and will look into it if and when i get it back.
Thanks !

Help please with flashing Rom (potentially bricked?)

Hi,
I was running the JellyBam installer having rooted using a guide at cursed4eva, using cwm.zip. The only thing I'm unsure of is because the phone was owned before me, whether a custom kernel was installed (perhaps Franco as it was on the sd card)... I wiped everything using recovery mode, and ran cwm.zip, then followed the guide. Everything was going fine, until during the installer it asked if I want to update a kernel or keep the kernel thats already on, but not knowing what to do and not being able to find anything on the internet, I just left it at the default option and updated the kernel. It remained on 2% while uncompressing the image file, but when I looked my phone had turned off and was unresponsive. I was going from rooted stock 4.04. Both recovery mode and download mode aren't available...
Is it likely to be hard-bricked or softbricked, and what do you suggest doing? I haven't had it over a year, so under UK law I should still have warranty on it, right?
Please help!
Warm regards,
Lee
Sounds more like a superbrick.. It's wells known that cwm.zip adviced by cursed4eva in YouTube its dangerous and can trigger the emmc bug.. I don't know why that dude haven't remove that video so far..
Try removing the battery for some minutes and then turn on the device in odin mode (power +volume down +home) and flash a stock gingerbread with pc odin

Thanks for your quick and helpful response. I'll try it in the next few hours, and let you know how it goes. Is the superbrick fix the thing which, if successful loses 3gb of space?
Once again, thanks for your help

First what it's first.. Flash the stock gb.. If that doesn't work then following question would be do you have warranty?

I haven't been able to access a PC tonight, but I'll try tomorrow. I don't suppose it's possible on a Mac is it? It is within my 1 year statutory rights, so that should be ok
Thanks for all your help guys!
If nothing happens when I've connected it to the PC with Odin open, and pressing Power+Vol Dwn+Home, does that mean its super bricked, or am I just doing something wrong?

You need to put the device in odin mode (volume down + home + Power until a warning shows up) when the warning appear on the screen release everything and press volume up to confirm.. Once in odin mode you can plug the device to the pc.
But before that you need to install either kies or samsung drivers in your pc.. You can find samsung drivers in Dr ketans toolbox in general section.. Once done with this, connect the device and wait for Windows to setup the device..
Once donde you can open odin.. And a yellow block should turn on In the upper left corner..

Thanks for your quick reply. I tried putting my device into Odin mode, but nothing appeared on the screen (and I held it for about a minute!). I've downloaded the Samsung Drivers, just to double check that it was already installed, and it was.
I can't get anything whatsoever on the screen. I don't even know if it's working at all... I can't get anything even though it's plugged into the mains. Any help would be greatly appreciated
First of all try to charge the battery externally using other phone or a ext charger. make sure there is juice on the battery and try to go to download mode again. battery might not get charged in that phone...
Once that done and still the phone is unresponsive .., no indication of screen display at all.like the N7000 logo (vol dwn+pwr+home) or (vol up+power+home), then it may be hard bricked and need a motherboard replacement .. I guess the samsung warranty is from the date of purchase as on the cash memo
Many thanks. I've had it plugged in and I can feel its warm so it must be charging. I've also tried a replacement battery to no avail. I guess it must be completely bricked. If Samsung only replace the motherboard then I'll try the retailer first, worth a try!
Many thanks for your help

Have to love Amazon! Even though I bought it last May, they're replacing it - no questions asked! Is there a guide on how to do this the best way possible on the new device? There's so much out of date information on the internet, including the guide I initially followed!

Dead its dead... Just return it and please do not ever wipe on ics stock kernels or use cwm.zip just read here or ask... Better ask than burning another device

Well lesson learned my friend and also for everyone else that reads this including myself. Happy to see you are getting it replaced l!

angus_mcfisher said:
Is it likely to be hard-bricked or softbricked, and what do you suggest doing? I haven't had it over a year, so under UK law I should still have warranty on it, right?
Please help!

Hes already getting a replacement
Thanks guys. Yeah, I got a replacement today from Amazon. No questions asked! Just to clarify to install Jellybam, I can follow the steps on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191 to replace the kernel, and then going into Recovery Mode, flash the zip and then during the installer I don't want to replace the kernel? Right?

Philz kernel is only for stock samsung roms. If the new phone you go is on stock ICS rom, then install this kernel from stock recovery. This will give you root.
The boot into recovery and do all wipes ( factory reset and wipe cache partition dalvik cache)
then go to mounts & storage and do format /system, format/data, format/preload.
then go to Install Zip and install the rom
This rom wont work with Philz kernel. so you need to use the kernel included in the ROM or Hydracore V7.

You have soft bricked your phone as CF3D drivers didn work as it was supposed to. First turn off your device by long pressing power key, this works many times even if you are in a boot loop(which is what you are experiencing now). Now like always try to enter recovery mode manually by the combination specified for your device (mine is power+home key+vol. up for recovery and power+home+vol. down for download). If you can enter recovery mode, wipe data and cache and if needed dalvik cache as well but it will take more time for your phone to start the first time after dalvik cache is wiped. This will probably fix your problem. And if it doesn then your next choice is flashing stock rom via odin. Pull your battery, insert it back after 10 seconds. Enter download mode manually and you know how to flash stock rom via odin i suppose. You can find many guides out there as well.. Hopes this helps...

Dont worry. Pull battery for 10sec and see if you can enter download mode. check this for your stock rom. This will do for now. You can later search for your region or flash a custom rom.

Sure.. I can help you. Check this.. It got what you need and it should work this time. Ignore the stuff mentioned at first of the article coz they are talking bout a perfectly working device and we are facing a worst case scenerio. Download the required files. Uninstall kies if you have it installed coz it will probably clash with Odin trying to access your device and report error. So have just the usb drivers installed and remove kies first. Next do as they say. It should be fine. Let me know if it worked.

This might get you back your recovery. Flash this cwm.tar.md5 using odin. select the PDA option and select the .tar.md5 file you got now. Check if it restores your recovery and let me know.

If you can enter download mode then dont give up. Try for odin flashable Roms and if you take your phone to service centre, dont tell them what really happened coz it will void your warranty. Tell them it happened while flashing the official stock rom update. It might save you from paying em and also losing your warranty..

You can but should have odin flashable files. Well if you find any then you can try it. But trying the ones you got already might work as you got the logo now.
