Im a master in this field so follow my instructions:
1-you have to flash a cwm on your device so if you dont have it put off the battery then put it back if the phone starts automatically it means the power button is always pressed so just keep pressed the home button and the volume down button to enter in download mode.
Once in download mode connect your device to your pc using the usb cable.
Now follow a tutorial to flash the cwm using odin if you dont know how to do it.
2-once obtained the cmw put off the battery and then put it back and keep pressed the home button to enter in recovery mode. If u have the cwm there are no problems cuz now you just have to reboot your phone and save a rom in your sd card then go in recovery mode and flash it.
3-once you have a custom rom just download the android terminal emulator and type the following lines if you want to reboot your phone:
su
Press enter and allow superuser
reboot
Press enter to reboot your phone.
If you want to reboot in recovery mode typw this:
su
Press enter
reboot recovery
Press enter and your phone will reboot in recovery mode
If you dont want to use the terminal emulator just download an app from the play store called "reboot menu" and for lock/unlock your device use the notification power widget or apps like "proximity sensor screen off" thats all

Can you get into recovery? That is volume up + home + power
You are a genius in trying to use vooodo made for I9000 i assume!!!
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA App
am sory but i did not know and i cant go into recovery mode worst everytime booting my galaxy s i9003 its showing the black screen of death
firstly dont panic....We do make mistakes and when we panic we dont follow steps correctly... Take out battery and press power key for 15-20 sec....Then insert battery and try to go to download mode...
ron is right....you might have tried to flash vodoo for 9000 and might have corrupted your system...in this case you need to go to samsung service center and tell them that you were playing a game or something and phone switched off...After wards you are trying to boot it and its not coming up...
THis is the only way you can get warranty....Regarding your father....You should be spanked
Remove your battery...put it back and try going into download mode..
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA App
its showing the same as for warranty my phone is rooted does that void my warranty ....i tried removing my battey and put it back when turning on its showing the same black screen of death O_O

Wow, if you flashed a I9000 kernel, then your a goner. Make sure you hold the vol down+home first, then 1 sec later, hold the power button till you see the yellow triangle pop up. It will work. You aren't doing it right.
On another note, Father's hand is itching :O!
Are you pressing the right keys to get into download mode...first press and hold volume down...then simultaneously press the home key abd hold while holding both the keys now...press power button...release after you see a picture of download

If you have got to the download mode then you can install either a stock firmware XXKB3 or try to do recovery.

1. prepare odin for flashing
2. connect your usb cable
3. insert the battery into your phone while pressing power + home + vol down
4. itll get into download mode
5. click start...
6. wait.............
7. enjoy
i suggest you flash mush69 rom
i used these settings in odin while my phine was hard bricked while flashing mush69
the .ops file as ops
apboot file as boot
modem file for phone
code file for pda
and csc file for csc
dont forget to hit the thanks button
Same here ...
It happened the same to me like 4 month ago... the phone didnt respond at all, rom manager fried my motherboard, so i send it to ASC but i told them that the phone just one day it tuned off and and never work again, after wait for 1 week they change it to me for a new one for free xD
Unfortunately if rom manager fried your motherboard too... it's the only solution.
this is what u get for not reading posts before doing somehing as dangerous as using rom manager anyway send it to service center tell them Kies crashed while updating XD

But when that happends kies gives u a code, then u connect it again and u can do an emergency rescue or something like that :S
Then let's consider power failure and PC turn-off
Like someone already said just send it to samsung service and with an inocent face say "I dont know what happened, it just never turned back on " and they cant find out the real reason it bricked so they will fix it

If your phone is still functional you can enter download mode by using a terminal emulator and type reboot download or via ADB.

try and post the result..
I've read a bunch of descriptions on the vulcan-deth-gripp to get into recovery/download.
And had my fair share of failures.. What NORMALY works for me, (my $.02)
1: Make certain that it's NOT pluged in
2: Make certain it's OFF (unplugg battery if necesary)
3: Push vol-down (for download) + home
4: Press power,
5: Release power (and keep the others pressed) once you get a short flash in the samsung logo (normaly 1-2 seconds)
Viola..
If you keep power pressed, it will trigger another reset sequence...
/PS
@ PhantomSage Sorry that method didnt work..

please guys, help me. i just got this phone and it it came with Android 2.3.6. I want to get Root access but I cant believe how hard it it. I used to have LGp350 and did it just like that, and this is soo hard.
Every manual i encounter says i need to download a file, put it on my micro sd card and the turn on phone in recovery mode. Recovery mode does not open for me..
and then i see that this is only for phones with custom rom? if thats true, im confused.
How can i get that root, help me please, give me some manual, link, redirect me, or help me here. i really appreciate it.

It's more like,

U said ur phone was shipped with 2.3.6 so it is possible for samsung to have removed/blocked it but it seems very unlikely to me.
But u can try flashing to a different unofficial firmware frm samfirmware.
That should work.
does download mode work?
home+volume down+power
download mode works.
ill try this one more time.
any other root options out there?
nah, nothing. it wont go to damn recovery mode

Try with the Windows program called "Unlock Root"
It rooted my 2.3.6 from samfirmware
Just plug the usb cable to the PC without activating mass storage
And hit root on the software
2 things :
1. i pressed those 2 button along with the third one - volume up, and something showed in orange letters, but in both times i tried it just went along with boot 2-3 seconds later. it wouldn't stay so i could read what it saiz. phone just turned on

1) please try it many times! To recover my phone, I need some hours (3-4) , to get into recovery mode!
2) switch to windows / go to a friend.
Also, in the future, read before flash an new rom, the comments of others. I am the one of many others who said that the rom causes bootloop !

1) please try it many times! To recover my phone, I need some hours (3-4) , to get into recovery mode!
2) switch to windows / go to a friend.

OHH....I mean, instead pressing Vol. Up+ Vol. Down+home+power to get in recovery,
you need to press home+power+up+down (fast!!!!)
You need to have the keys pressed before phone vibration ends ! If you see clockworkmod logo under phone model, release the keys!
If not repeat the steps! :good:
can't you go to a cybercafe or land a windows machine once in your life ? i think it is better to use something that worked for many people than taking risks

Wow .. Your solution is easier than mine I should have known that method earlier ... Usually .. when I stuck in bootloop ... I will Force the phone to enter Recovery Mode ...
1.Press the Download Mode Key Combination ( VOL down + Home + Power )
2.After that, the phone will warn you right ?? Choose cancel (VOL down)
3.After you pressed Vol Down the phone will try to reboot .
4.When the phone try to reboot,press the Recovery Mode key combination BUT without pressing power button. Press ONLY the three button.
5.The phone will enter recovery Mode.
6.Full wipe the Phone and/or restore your backup.
It works for me EVERYTIME ..
If it is not working for you,just try again .. Your timing in STEP 4 must be PERFECT !!

I don't see how pressing buttons is risky than using Odin and then having chances of having a pricey brick.
