This isnt my phone but me and my friend successfully rooted his galaxy mini but when we flashed CWM we must have used the wrong one from the app and bricked the device or something as the device wont turn on. Is this bricked and if it is how can we unbrick it.
Thanks
If you can go into the download mode just flash stock rom through odin

The wrong one from an app... It sounds like Rom Manager. If I'm right, then USB jig or service.

Thanks guys, will the phone still flash even if the phone doesnt tirn on? I will try flashing with odin this weekend but if it doesnt work do you think samsung could fix it?

To find out if it's a "soft brick" or "hard brick" try going to "Download Mode" on the Mini. Do this by turning off the phone simultaneously pressing the Volume Down + Power + Home. When prompted, press Volume Up to confirm.
If there is a Download Mode, the phone just got a "soft brick" which means you can fix it on your own. If there is no Download mode, you're pretty much screwed.
IF there is a Download Mode, then it means you can still flash a ROM/firmware via ODIN. But I suggest flashing the right CF root kernel for the Samsung Galaxy Mini first. That will probably fix the phone's failure to boot. If it doesn't reboot properly after rooting, then I would suggest you flash a new ROM/firmware instead.

Oh, if there is a Download Mode just as I explained above, you can still flash any ROM or kernel via ODIN. Cheers!

If it seems like you can't get into download mode, there is a trick (it worked for me, when I thought my phone was hard-bricked, but obviously TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Get a friend to help - it's almost impossible to do this by yourself (unless you were born with three hands) :silly:
Take out the battery, sim-card and SD-card
While holding down all three buttons for download mode (Volume Down + Power + Home), get your friend to insert the battery.
Keep holding down all three buttons until you see download mode (can take up to a couple of minutes).
If it doesn't work at first, keep trying - it took me about three of four tries before that lovely sign came up :laugh:
Good luck.
PS: sorry I really can't remember where I got this from, so can't give due credit. If I'm plagiarising anyone, please let me know and I'll fix it.

if it shows something on the screen then go to download mode and flash firmware
if not then take it to Samsung care
If ODIN detects your phone, go and download the stock firmware for SGM.
If you can't enter download mode, remove the battery and press download mode combo (volume down+power+home). Insert the battery whilst holding the buttons (tricky). You should get to download mode and flash the stock rom.
If that doesn't work you should try the jig USB method (search for one in your neighborhood mobile service centers) or in ebay.
If you aren't getting anything right, go to Samsung service center and act dumb (as if you don't know anything about rooting or flashing roms) and if your warranty is not void, they might solve it all for you.
Good Luck :good:
Tnx so much for tips will give it a try tomorrow and see what will come out of it. Stay bless

You can try a wipe data in recovery, if it works (power button +volume up + home when the phone is off)
Okay do what the guy above said,
1. Get into Recovery Mode(Volume up + Power Button)
2. Wipe data and cache
Please reply if anything happens.

Hi everyone. My Galaxy N7000 had suddenly surned off after I flashed it. It is not turning on, and is not detectable in Odin. I cannot go in Download mode or somewhere else. Nothing is working. Battery is fully charged. I tried another one and the results are same. The phone turned off suddenly, after that I turned on it again and it was freezed. So I put off a battery and put it again, than I tried to turn the phone again nothing has happened. JIG and other staff are not working. I live in Georgia (Europe) and here is not official Samsung service center so please help me and give me advice.

yes. I flashed cwm.zip What can I do now? I downloaded google chrome and was using it when the device has stopped working and freezed. Is there any hope to fix it? AND if it can't be fixed. Just tell me internet shop where I can find new motherboard for it. It's N7000......
The internet shop you are looking for doesn't exist - Samsung Repair Center (or whatever name it has) can replace it.
But first you should verify that your brick is true. Using CWM.zip is deadly but your other statements aren't so clear.
1. So maybe you try to install a GB or ICS stock Rom with Odin on your PC. If the installation stops in Odin at "factoryfs.img" you are bricked.
2a. Then you can try the workaround with repartition (excluding the damaged sectors) from hg42.
2b. Or replace the motherboard
and where can I find a new mother board? The device is not dettectable in Odin. ANd why is cwm deadly?
AW: [Q] Please help me. Samsung Galaxy N7000
Samsung only has the boards. They'll replace it for you.
Not CWM is the problem but the cwm.zip you used - but I think that isn't confirmed until now by your statements. Try Odin and stock rom first please. Thanks

You tried a different battery: nothing
You can't start in download mode or recovery mode (are you sure you pressed the correct buttons long enough?).
If so you have a cold stone now. Only a Samsung Center somewhere can help you.
One more try. Pull battery out for a couple of minutes. Reinsert. Immediately press volume down + power + home for 15 -20 seconds. Press volume up. Open PC Odin (make sure appropriate drivers are installed first). Connect to PC with USB cable. See if "COM" box turns yellow. Report back...

Thanks for the reply, yes i have correct files, still will try yours, (once it will boot then further i will deal easily) currently have given the phone to a local repair person, he said something is wonky with IC chip so ROM is not flashing properly.
