please HELP my i9001 is bricked !!!

Hi Guys,
I tried to upgrade rom from 2.3.3 to 2.3.6 got on this forum , using odin 4.43
the port was reconized and the process started but stay locked at 4/12 during 1 hour
so that I had to stop odin and shut down my i9001 from downloading mode .
now when restarting device I get icon showing a phone and a pc with yellow triangle and exclamation point in it .
Please help, what ca I do?
I made a full data+system backup using titanium on my sd card before stating the operation, could it be used ?
thanks in advance !!
Eric

Can you acces download mode? If you can, just try again with odin..

Hi,
You mean it is possible to get dowload mode , even if I got thei triangle pc phone logo ?

You should be able to get into download mode. Get the battery out of your phone and put it back after 10sec, Volume Down + Home + Power Button at the same time will get you in download mode.
It happens a lot that the flash is stuck, especially with large files. Changing USB or PC even will solve the problem.

thanks Shoomy !
I could get the download mode following your instruction
I will try with another another usb entry when at home .
for odin I have 2 files : one is .ops, the orther is .md5 : can you confirm I dont nead more files to get process ok till the end .
after step2 as I remember I have an odin log line telling something as " big file ..."
so that I wonder if it could work using another usb port !

That is fine, MD5 means "one package", so be sure to check One Package and then your .MD5 along with the .OPS and you're good to go. No need for other files.

Thanks Guys !
I could flash my phone with odin 4.43 and 2.3.6 rom .
but the only way to success after many sessions, was to uncheck box " secure OPS file" on odin screen .
thanks a lot

If you are 100% sure you cannot enter download mode you really have a problem. Did you try checking the battery? And if you are 100% sure - search the forum, there's some posts about using a JIG to fix it, but most seem to have gone back to Samsung afaik...

That's for softbricks only, not really a brick (just something that makes people panic and think they bricked their phone ). Hardbricks are almost impossible as in: go to a service center and hope they will replace or fix your device (without any cost)...

[Q] Ace Wont Go into CWM Recovery mode

Hi Guys,
**Alert : Noob Here **
So, I decided to install some custom ROM on my Samsung Galaxy ACE S5830 and went through loads of information on how to do so. So this is what i did - ( from the start) :
a. Rooted the phone ( from a file called upd_1.zip ( 925KB) by going into recovery mode)..
It worked fine and my phone got a 'superuser' on the application drawer.
b. Installed 'recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix' using the recover mode. ( had to rename the file to update.zip coz the recovery mode was not reading the file ).. Worked properly as i got another application 'CWM' on my application drawer.
c. Now, just to check if my CWM was doing good in recovery mode, I switched off my cell, pressed 'vol-up + home + power-up' button to go into recovery mode.. I got some text on the top left corner of the screen with a SAMSUNG logo on the screen...and then it got stuck there...i waited for some time but nothing happened.
I removed the battery and tried switching on the phone normally ( just power-up the phone ) (just to ensure that it still works) and now, the phone is stuck with the SAMSUNG logo on the screen and doesn't work at all !!!
I am confused as after installing CWM, i did switch on the phone normally and it seemed to work fine..but now after I pressed 'vol-up + home + power-up' buttons, its stuck at the black screen with LOGO on it...
Any clue what's wrong with my phone??

Did you flash the correct software for your model of device?

I think you just bricked your phone, you have to flash a stock Rom.
Recovery Mode: Power + Home + Vol Up.

Bro try going to download mode by pressing vol down+power+home press it for 7-8 seconds then flash multi pakage firmware from sammobile.com
and the link is for ace s5830i not ace s5830 check the link for your stock firmware

You have used the wrong combo & have got yourself in the ram dump mode. The combination for recovery is, power + home button simultaneously & when something appears on phone, leave the power button while still holding the home key. Btw, no need to announce a high alert that you're a noob or such unless you're a badass
@ Ppl : Read what he's done carefully & reply if you know. Don't confuse the newbies.

Haha - the alert was just for the experienced guys to not use 'experts terminology' while explaining me what to do
Well, I tried following your method. I help d home button and the power button and let go for the power button when 'SAMSUNG' appeared while still holding the home button...but nothing happened.. The screen is stuck at that particular screen itself with no progress..
Should I flash my phone with stock firmware as advised by the guys above?

GUYS !!!
I restored the phone with stock ROM and a tutorial from another member about flashing stock ROM from ODIN got my cell working !!!
Yayyy !!!
( I was **** scared when read the line that if the flashing fails in first 15 secs ( boot loader flashing) my phone is bricked ):fingers-crossed:
Thanks a lot guys - all of you ...for the help...:victory:
**BUT**
I still want to instal custom ROM to my device...and since I ve committed a mistake in he past doing so, will any1 would be kind enough to show me the path ( link ) to enlightenment ( installing custom ROM from the start ) ?

So,
I thought its better to search for things ranther than troubling you guys to spoon feed me everything...
For rooting, I am gonna try doing everything from the start and be a little more attentive.
1. So, from hubix's guide, I downloaded the below mentioned bold file:
"SuperOneClick 2.3.3 (for 2.2> firmwares) or Universal Gingerbread Root/Unroot (for 2.3< firmwares)"
2. To install CWM , i downloaded the following file :
"ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.6 (Fixed!)""
3. Since my phone Android version is 2.3.6, I would go with 'Db' method of rooting :
"Db. Rooting for 2.3.x (NEW METHOD!):
Download file called universal_gb_root_v25.zip and copy it to your sdcard
Turn off your phone
Press POWER+HOME BUTTON
Select update from sdcard, select the file universal_gb_root_v25.zip
After the update completed - reboot
Now you have rooted S5830"
4. Then, follow up the the Flash Custom Recovery steps from the same page, which is as follows :
Put recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace.zip into SD Card
Turn off your phone
Press POWER+HOME BUTTON
Select Update Zip From SD-Card option. [If you are on previous version of CWM recovery then you might need to select Install Zip From SD Card and then Choose Zip From SD Card Option simultaneously. ]
Select recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace.zip and flash it
Reboot your device
Please let me know if I am correct or will following these steps would screw up my phone again ???

You're correct.

Cool..now coming to installing the custom ROM, can I install any custom ROM ? Because in few of the ROM's, there is something mentioned as
"This Rom is based on CyanogenMod 10.1 for Galaxy Ace"
What is this supposed to mean ?? Are there any other parameters which decide on the factors on what ROMs can be costumed installed??
( for example in some ROM i also saw something to do with ext partition )

I probably can't. But you can try as followed:
- Install Samsung drivers + start ODIN (You probably already have)
- Pull out battery
- Put in USB cable (I'm sure you have tried another cable yet)
- Press key combo for download mode (Vol down + power + home)
- Put the battery back in while still holding down the keys.

If you have a backup of stock ROM, it's worthless if s5570i is the same in that regard as the s5570. Just wipe data, since your can go to recovery.
And no, you didn't flash android 4.4, just a 2.3.7 themed to look like 4.4

i have gt-s5570i and backup from my phone not s5570i but thing is i cant go into recovery when i press home+power+and vol up and grey screen appears all the time ...

Do you still have download mode?
Sent because I <3 Aerith

Kies
If u have kies on your computer then try the emergency firmware recovery. U might loose your contacts messages,etc . This is a 50-50 chance

i have download mode if it is what i think it is but i tryed that and nothing happened. Ill try later with kies ... but i doubt itll work

Recovery is power+home on s5570. I assume you don't need vol up on the s5570i either. So just try power+home before download mode and flashing something else.

but thing is i cant get into download mode

So you installed the wrong kernel... Try to blindly flash correct philz kernel... Empty the sd card.. Then just place n7000 philz kernel and navigate blindly with the buttons to install.. May be take help from s2 philz recovery on your phone..
