You can try "reboot recovery" in terminal..

Thanks for answering,
I'can get in recovery with the power and home button, but I just can't use it due to the volume buttons issues...Do you know if it works also for the download/(Odin) mode??I can type "reboot download" in the terminal????
Cheers.
Edit: Thanks to sax0406 I've tried with Terminal Emulator to run the "reboot download" command and it worked! Than I've flashed it with Odin.

I see you have sorted your problem but yes, you can do that...
Plug the jig to access download mode, then remove the jig and insert the USB cable and flash with Odin.

[Q] Accidentaly off during downloading firmware upgrade

How to solve? My SGS I9000 accidentaly off during downloading firmware upgrade. Now, when I switch on the phone, no Samsung and Galaxy S logo appeared, but the connected phone-pc icon appeared with warning icon in the middle. What can I do?
You have semi bricked it. you need to put it back in to download mode (vol down + home key + power button) press all 3 buttons at once. When in download mode reflash it again with Odin. If your 3 button doesn't work then you need a jig
Thanks for the reply.
Yeah.. 3 buttons doesn't work. I don't have any JIG right now. Maybe the best is go to Samsung Service Centre. Huu..
Plenty of jigs available on ebay or see the thread on here about making one
Anyone can verify this solution, is it work? Mine can't:
SOFT BRICK
Resolution
First off DO NOT PANIC. there is a simple solution, just remove the battery , plug the phone into the computer, press and hold volume down and it will enter download mode.

You can't because it doesn't work that way. If you have a semi brick or brick (without the combo) you need a JIG/JTAG.
Other tricks like "heat the battery" "heat the Cellphone" or the one you pointed are just fake.

Recovery with jig?

Since we can force dl mode with sa jig, is it possible for a differently configured jig to do the same with revovery mode?
What are you trying to do?
Think about it, if you need a jig that likely means your software on your phone is toast, so would be recovery
If the phone can boot you can use abd to force recovery

Thinking about folks that lose 3 button when flashing with odin. Not everyone is comfortable with adb (myself included). I was wondering IF it was possible.

so just use the download mode jig and flash the odin that fixes it.....

you can unbrick you galaxy S without jtag or jig , here is the steps:
1- Start Odin
2- Attach the USB cable to the PC (DO NOT ATTACH IT TO THE PHONE)
3- Press and hold "Volume up" and "home" buttons
4- Attach the USB cable to the phone while holding both buttons
5- The phone will enter in download mode
Install a new firmware and everything is going to be OK

misinformation! Thanks for shutting it down. I'm soft bricked since Thurs. I do not need try what is incorrect..
While I ordered a jig Friday, I'm two hundred 3button + usb, + battery attempts later and only one DL mode, and that fruitless for other reasons..

Jig is amazing! Now Monday and I got the mail. One try, and into Odin 1.82 and I even completed the talon1.3 kernel load.. All in under 60 seconds, when I spent the whole weekend bruising my fingers trying to get into DL mode and worrying about whether I was more than soft bricked. I had gotten into DL mode twice in the 4 days with no progress in Odin.

[Q] Hard bricked s5570

Yea I know that, but it wont boot to recovery or download mode.
But when I press volume up home and power odin detects it
heyy, the problem already has a solution?
my phone S5570 also has the same problem, black screen, can not go into recovery mode or download mode.
but go to RAMDump (vol up + home + power) and connect it to my PC, my S5570 is detected by the PC and odin, but can not flashing my rom.
stuck in "Setup Connection" I know it because my phone is not in the download mode.
whether the USB JIG is the right solution?
sorry if my language is bad

(I think this set of steps works in these
conditions: Hard-brick, absolutely non-
responsive to any button combination.
Odin still recognizes the phone when
connected through USB port)
1.- Remove both the SIM card and de
microSD card.
2.- KEEP YOUR BATTERY REMOVED
3.- Apply the Download-mode button
combination (known by you all)
4.- WHILE HOLDING THE
COMBINATION, insert the battery, and
keep the buttons pressed untill you get
the download mode.
5.- Flash your phone with a valid
firmware through Odin (Preferebly,
have Odin prepared before doing this
trick).........
hit thanks if this helped you and others....

brick s5570
I have a Samsung mini S7750, in resetting to factory defaults boot.
Boot mode or recovery mode does not.Only works is a combination of "home + vol up + vol down" moves into some mode where it while Odin detects the two com ports, but nothing to do, Odin hangs on setup conection.
JIG does not work [resistor 301kohm].Display is black.

Hi. My S5570 is hard bricked. Will not turn on in any way i try. Does not go on download or recovery mode. The USB Jig method does not work for me. (I tried with around 3) and I connected my phone to my laptop and help down power + home + vol up and it does not recognise my device but when i do power + home + vol up + vol down it recognises it. I then used Odin to recover it but I have tried over 50 times and it is always stuck on "Setup connection...". Can someone please help? I have already tried re-installing Samsung USB Drivers. Still not working. Please help and thanks!

Only hold vol up+home+power and THEN connect it if download mode works. I mean if it's recognized by the computer, download mode has to work, there is no way. If it does, then flash a stock ROM.
Oh and also something: before doing this, pull out your sd card and even your sim card. The same thing happened to my phone and Odin could flash it after removing everything.

There is another way that u can try:
(Asumming that samsung mobile drivers are installed, with no Samsung KIES... & odin running in the foreground.)
*Remove sim, sdcard & battery.
*Now connect ur phone(without battery) to pc via usb cable.
*Now press the usual download mode keys(volume down & home & power buttons) together without the battery.
*While still holding those three buttons, insert the battery.
At this point Odin should detect ur phone so that u can flash stock firmware.
U can try this atleast since u r left with no choice:sly:.
Good Luck..!!:thumbup:
Hope this helps...!!

You have the right area so don't worry about that.
It looks like your phone is done for good, but let's try to salvage it. Follow the steps carefully to avoid messing it up even further.
1.Make sure your battery is charged. Use an universal charger or something similar to charge it if not.
2.Unplug your phone from your USB cable or charger.
3.Put the battery back inside but do not power it up yet.
4.Hold the VOLUME DOWN button and the HOME button. While holding both of them, press and hold the POWER button. You should be prompted with a DOWNLOADING message. If nothing shows, then it's dead.
5.If you are shown the message, then you can still make it work. Make sure you have all your USB Drivers installed. After that download ODIN.
6.Open ODIN and plug in your phone while it is still in DOWNLOAD mode.
7.If it recognizes it, follow the steps here and you should be done.

There is not much left to do. If there is a method of fixing this type of hard brick, the chances are very slim. You're better off sending the phone to Samsung Care.

Nothing helps. I bought USB JIG - there's no reaction. I try everything.
I sow on the forum USB JIG with resistors. I bought on "Allegro" it's like eBay on Poland. Now i open this USB JIG and it's without resistors. whether this could be a problem - i have bad USB Jig??
The only activity is when i connect cabel ( from phone to computer) and insert the battery, then computer found and lost (every few seconds) new device called "U8500"
You can see some light in the tunnel?
Thanks for help guys. In Poland - Dziekuje
