i managed to make it jvu.. then went to make it jw4
now i can't even enter download mode.. screen stopped working or wtf..
Take out the battery for 1min.
Try removing the battery and then try the 3 button combo to enter download mode. I thing Odin failed because when you tried to install F4 it changed partitions and when you wanted to downgrade to jw4 you did not repartition with 512 pit.
When you enter download mode remember to install the 3 file stock rom with 512 pit and repartition checked.
After installing the stock rom before proceeding with jellybean remember to backup your efs folder ( you can search xda dev how to do that)
I strongly recommend going with Cyanogenmod 10 stable. Its very fast and with the latest semaphore kernel runs like a beast.

after i made it jvu i wanted to make it jw4.. it was doing something else.. i forgot the names now.. and then the screen just went off
removed the battery many times but nothing. i am charging the phone in case it's the battery :/ i closed also odin when i saw it was doing nothing..
i think i did a serious damage on the phone. If it gets fixed i will try cm10.. right now.. nothing :/
I think Odin crashed my phone
because i changed 3-4 custom roms in some hours..
i saw some threads about how to put it back in recovery mode but nothing..
screen is black.. not responding at all : (
I think your battery died in the middle of the flashing process. When you charge the battery does it show the battery indicator charging ?

nothing at all..
Then basically your battery died in the middle of flashing process, you can try with another full battery and try to enter download mode by using the 3 button combo. If it does not it means you have to use a USB jig to access download mode. Once you access download mode remember to have a fully charged battery before flashing

so when the battery dies in the middle of flashing... i can't charge it?
Possibly not, you have to try with a fully charged battery before flashing anyway. I think if you touch the phone while on power and the battery is warm maybe is charging. If there is no sign of life or there is no heat at all maybe is not charging. You still have to try to enter download mode with a fully charged battery, keep trying.

i changed battery with external charger and tried putting it in download mode..
nothing though : /
i don't know what to do
You have to try the dowload mode using an USB jig.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551
You can't broke this mode by flashing your phone, if an USB Jig don't work, you really have an hardware problem.
my pc makes sounds when i connect the phone.. then the sound that it got dc'ed
i don't think i will find a jig here.. nor i can make one.
i will give it to samsung service center and pay them..
if it gets fixed
1 week and more without a phone lol
Where you're from..? If you're from holland i have a jig for you... if not you can order one from the internet i paid €3,75 for it
GT-I9001 4.1.2 JB by Invendor
same happened to me
i live in India i have the same problem tried repairing my phone but no result.....i gave it to a repairer he tried the riff box repair but nothing happened....and when i am charging the phone it doesn't heats.... if you get something done please update it on this thread, while i'm trying too
i guess i have to find a shop and buy a jig : P
you can order the jig on ebay... i got one for my phone... in continuation of the discussion going on, my phone is bricked as well... nothing is working... neither the 3 combo button or the JIG... also, when i plugin the charger, no indication is showing up... can anyone please suggest what can be done for this?
I checked with Samsung.. they have asked me to get the motherboard replaced and it will cost around 8K...

Pls can anyone help me im sooooo desperate. i just upgraded my fone via kies but after upgrade my fone is now blank, i cant use it anymore. pls hell. did i brick my fone??? can i bring it to life again??
You should try to reinstall the stock firmware. First see if you can get into download mode. Two ways, while your phone is off, hold down volume, the home button, and power button together till you get a yellow sign that has a digging android. If that don't work, other way is to take battery out, hold down volume, home button, and power together and reinsert the battery. Once you get to that stage, use Odin to reinstall your firmware.

shud all my apps be restored?? or back to square 1?
Well seeing as though you updated via kies, all your apps are deleted. I would just start fresh and back to stock. After that I would install a custom rom from the forums here, in my opinion, these rom makers do a great job making Roms that will make your phone be a phone and more

Two choices return phone to Samsung saying broke under Kies update .
Or use recovery jig and flash stock firmware this is an unofficial method that will invalidate your warranty .

i got the yellow digging but my fone is not connected to my pc. i turned it off again. so should i connect my fone via usb to my pc? then press again the 3 bttons?
Sorry went to bed, just woke up. Anyways download the stock firmware for your phone. Make sure you download the right one. Meaning if you have the i9000M, download i9000M, or if you have i9000T, download i9000T. If you check behind your battery you'll.find your model. I don't think it really matters, I mean your just gonna flash another rom once your phone is back to life for sure. ;-)

helped a friend out about 4 months ago by flashing kg3 onto his galaxy s after it would crash repeatedly saying 'internal process (android system) error, must forceclose' and after that it worked fine,
but yesterday he said it won't boot up, won't go into download or recovery, the only screen interaction he can get is when it's plugged in it will say battery 100% charged,
when i plugged it into keys the computer beeped then said 'keys 2.0 doesn't recognize this phone' .... help please?!
Have you tried removing and re-inserting the battery? At times after doing that you are atleast able to get into the download mode.
you wil have to re install firmware
Ya I have tried that, still no download mode, and I obviously know I have to reinstall firmware but how could I do that with no download mode

just double check. if you used to be able to get download mode then you shoud be able to get in it again. sgs are fairly hard to break. try removing the battery at full charge and leave all cables out when you do remove it . do the button combo and you should be good. after that happy flashing
Well I had a problem, root days ago my Samsung Galaxy i897 (AT & T) Android 2.3.5 The root am not perfect, but after a few days stopped working. Try re-do the root and the installation stopped I had to remove the battery and slide back in the surprise was that the phone was with the yellow triangle, buy a USB JIG which is not served by the version of "boot loader" had to put oldest one ... I did then the Bootloader Changing the phone does not start does absolutely nothing Any help?
PD Sorry my bad English, Use Google Translate
If u have absolutely no signs of life, like when u plug it up to charge, etc., then u have hard bricked it and it can only be brought back to life through j-tag or unbrickable mod.
If u do have signs of life and you can get into download mode then you can flash a Stock Firmware (i897ucKK4 is the latest official release). If that works to get you up and going, you can use the [Utility] KK4 Easy Root by Red_81to get Root.

The cell phone does nothing, and to change the boot (that was what caused the problem) but to give the light button several hours after the battery gets hot (as if turned on) but the pc does not recognize it by placing the USB mode and also download anything served
PS So the solution would be a brick Full? :/
The solution or fix is in my previous post.
The problem seems to have been a bootloader flash gone bad. Flashing Bootloaders on the Captivate is one of the few real risky things to flash.
Do you recall what you flashed before the phone messed up ?? What bootloader or ??

I do remember what happened before does not turn or do anything, had loaded several roms before, but decided to charge a short while installing the installation, to switch it appeared to me the typical yellow triangle, buy a USB JIG which is not served by the the android version (2.3.5) the only solution that worked for the JIG was loading a bootloader older, oldest Download a bootloader that according served, connect the phone Odin opened the PDA and place it in load bootLoader, the cell is turn off (I had to reboot) and there did not catch more bone turn give the button and nothing happens the screen goes black, I can not enter download mode because it obviously will not start, sorry for my low English ,to connect the usb the pc does not recognize it does not leave any warning or anything like that
Not sure why the Jig did not work, even with i897uckk4 android 2.3.5 ??
Anyway, sorry....it does sound like it is hard bricked. So like I said before, the only fix would be J-tag and/or Unbrickable Mod.
Not sure where you are located, but if in the U.S. you could contact mobiletechvideos.com for repair. If your not in the U.S. then i don't know...

Using CWM.zip (temporary/Touch recovery)method to root is said to be unsafe by entropy, and till safe release don't use it
Read This http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1810954 and i clicked on last link and via Odin installed CF Root kernel CF-Root-SGN_XX_DBT_LRQ-v5.6-CWM5.zip , i done that and later install TriangleAway v1.95.
Than wanted to install ROM LiquidSmooth » JellyBean RC 3 » 29th Sept, and i wanted to do via CWM mode, and all goes good untill i saw on display : Erasing the system.....i wasnt near phone 1 minutes and display was black/turned off. I aited some 20 minutes, and nothing. Than i decided to try to turn on, nothing, dead. I leave battery out for some time, put back battery....nothing happened. PC cant see phone via USB.
I guess this is hard bricked phone or maybe not. I googled for solution, nothing. Maybe someone have expirience how to fix this?

Press vol down, power house 20 seconds, Vol up later. Connect your phone to your computer and see if the phone detects PCOdin.
If it detects three file upload stock ROM GB.
tried all that, nothing happened. Battery is charging when i connect charger, i can feel phone is hot.
still dead
PC Odin does not see your phone? And the computer when connected to the phone seems a sound?

You probably do not have the Samsung drivers installed on your computer.
Download Kies network and install the drivers off Kies. Start Odin and try again later steps in my first message. Do not worry about the black phone screen. It is important that Odin saw the phone
he installed cf root kernel via Odin so drivers should be there right?
