It can definitely be fixed, it's just a matter of how easily it can be done. Have you tried some of the unusual combinations people have come up with to get into download mode. For example removing the battery, holding power + volume down + home and then reinserting the battery whilst these buttons are held?
Also, if you can't get into download mode that doesn't mean you have to sell it as parts. Samsung will be able to repair it, if they can't tell what you did then perhaps they'll repair it for free under warranty.

Sometimes I just wonder why people try to install low-level software on their device that ISNT MEANT for their device. There is a reason, the captivate has a different model number and that is because it requires DIFFERENT software.
This comes close to me flashing the BIOS for an AMD motherboard on my X58 Intel motherboard.

reason for people installing other software is in my case because im STUPID !!! I stood almost 24 h reading forums in my country and stuff , and i googled ODIN the first link was this ODIN ONE CLIK i entered read about things there and it seamed to be for my phone, and from there we know the story. I did not think for one moment that the soft was for another phone. After i broke it i read all 42 pages and realized that.
I can't get the phone to do anything.... i can't charge it ... it's like the USB does not exist. If i start the phone unpluged, when i plug the usb in turns oFF , ass soon as i take out the USB it will start again to flash the AT&T logo...
I hope if i can't fix it, that SAMSUNG service will change it or can repair it and not charge a hunormus amount of money for that
you have give me hope telling that it can be fixed by samsung , and i still am opened for advices from u guys

thanks, im not going to be upset if people make fun, they can do it because i was so stupid not to see that the soft is for another phone and brake it with my own hand. Isn't on this forum someone that works for Samsung and can tell me for sure what to do , or if the service can do ?

if we´d have this guy here, the galaxy s would be worlds top android device out of the box, since this guy would perfectly know what the problems are with it and could easily manage to incorporate fixes found here or based on testing people made here...

i was not referring to a developer from samsung or an engineer, i was asking for a guy that works in a Samsung service, and could tell me if my problem can be resolved in the service.

Why don't you just call them and ask yourself?

Im sorry but you screwed up. Im sure samsung can fix it but charge you heaps of money. You could always "loose" your phone if you have insurance

you don't have these option very often in this country... i know only one person that has these type of insurance...

Well there is a way of getting your phone working by putting a file on your sd card but you'd have to look for that .

Actually, you should try it... I've been told that flashing Intel boards with AMD firmwares allows unlimited overclocking! or not.

I'm sorry for that. It's a little bit of frustration speaking there. But I guess you have a way bigger problem. Although that post about putting the right file on the SD seems interesting (but I haven't heard of anything like that before).
But if you can, returning the phone and hoping that samsung will fix it will be the easiest fix.

im sure samsung can fix it evan by changing the sd in the phone with the correct soft will solve it, but i want to see if there is another way of doing it

If u want to test that it is really not a hardware problem,
try flashing another rom to see if the problem persists or not..
If it persists then its the problem of ur touchscreen so take it to sony service center.They will get it repaired...

flash another rom to make sure,but if it is shown when you are running different apps and even in cwm i guess its hardware problem...

I tried everything but i think its really hardware,well,i think its time to say goodbye for my X8...sad

some times there is a screen cut if you are in high frequency.
anyway if its your screens problem there are some cheap in ebay..

If It is a Hardware Problem... Than Just Replace the Touch pad it Should Cost you Around 20$ to 25$(2nd Quality)
I had the Same Problem & Replaced the Touch Pad Now it Works Good For Me..!!

Yeah but i can't buy on Ebay and where i live is much more expensive...its will be the half of the price of a new phone.
But thanks anyway!
Send from My Xperia™X8

yeah...
maybe you can flash with another ROM
always flash the kernel and the other..after that try to wipe data
hope it can help to solve your problem

Have you consulted a service center? And maybe find out if it's a hardware issue (it probably is ) and maybe get an estimate on how much it would cost to fix it?
Worst case scenario: buy a new phone but don't throw away your x8 so you can stay active here. That's what i'd do.
Sent from my X8 using xda premium

Do you have the warranty still active? maybe you can fix it for free.

No,i have the phone around 1 year and 5 months,no more warranty.I tryed to change kernel+ROM and nothing.By now i will assume thats a hardware problrm and 'll try to dissasembly and see what i can do... hope its simple!

Well I really hope you will repair it successfully...hope for the best and good luck

Well,no way i could fix it,the problem is inside the display and only a new one would work,sadly i will need to buy a new phone.Thats it.Thanks everybody who tryied to help and goodbye!

[Q] Upgrade from Desire S ?

Hi all ,
I currently use a HTC Desire S , and it's still working well after 18 months , except for a fault with the headphone jack .
I'm thinking about picking up a Galaxy S III Mini .
How does it compare to the Desire S ?
Has anybody gone from a Desire S to the Galaxy Mini ? , if so , what are your thoughts ?
I've had a look around , and the Galaxy S III Mini doesn't seem to come with headphones , will my HTC ones work properly with the Samsung ( I mean the microphone part )
How does TouchWiz compare to HTC Sense ?
Thanks , and sorry for all the questions

It has headphones in the package.

I upgraded from the DS and REALLY glad I did!

it WILL come with headphones

Thanks for the replies ,
I didn't think it came with headphones for some reason . All I could find for box contents were the phone , charger and user guide .
No mention of headphones .
How does TouchWiz compare to HTC Sense ? Is it similar enough ?
Thanks

Anything in particular really stand out as being better for you with the Samsung over the HTC ?

I was always a bit 'nervous' about moving from Sense, been used to that for years! But really impressed and love the TouchWiz! Similar yes, but feels more fluid and polished.
Yes to FM radio.
Its a hell of a lot snappier, better size with it being slightly bigger.
My only gripe with it is the stupid placement power button, on the side... They have been able to disable the power button from waking the device up on the s3, but that doesn't work on the mini...yet.

Perfect , just the info I was looking for .
I'll probably order one on Monday or Tuesday
Last question ( for the moment ) ,
Does it have NFC or not ?
I've seen some posts saying it does and some saying it does not .
Thanks again.

I can't answer that as I'm really not sure myself! I have read and heard Yes and No like yourself...

Look for I8190N version, that's the one you want for NFC at the moment. The other versions I understand don't seem too have it.

Thanks ,
I'm not sure which version I'll be getting .
It'll be supplied by Three Ireland .
It'll be free , so NFC would just be a bonus

Hi,
your answer is here!. Seems to be a hardware short circuit.
maybe putting your open device close to a warm source to dry it will give you 15.031969% to save it...
Else, I fear you need Samsung service..

I don't mean to be rude but why did you open a thread here on XDA about this?
This site is for mobile phone/tablet development.
You have bought a faulty device, it happens.
You need to take it back for a replacement, simple.
I hope you get it sorted! It's never nice buying something and it not working properly.

i believe it got something to do with calibration or something related to software
as phone was flashed earlier and it might be something to do with flashing
i was thinking of writing NV calibration data from another phone to see if that may help, but thought of getting more ideas first.
WBR

Oh right, fair enough then. I thought it was brand new and you'd just taken it out of the box.

as good as new, only a few days used, sending it back would be costly
so i thought to get some ideas if it could be calibration data or something, as i have already flashed it but it didn't yield any result..

hi there, for me ..basically if theres a hardware problem I'm bringing it to repair center. then i will just fix the software. (of course with the help of google and xda)., that was unless you are knowledgeable in some sort of soldering or in general hardware troubleshooting.

Well I solved the problem with a bit of hard thinking and experience haha, I come to the conclusion of adb! The pgone was locked but when I connected to computer debugging was on, so I downloaded a brill program called adk-android or something like that... any way with this program I used adb to make phine go into download mode!! Yeahh , I thought I would post fot other peoples benefits!
Press thanks if I helped!
