Hello Everyone,

I did a very bad move by removing the cable at the downloading mode. =(
I know i screwed up pretty bad.

hi,i meet the same problem as you. :-(
can u tell me how you fix it at last?
thx very much!

would you mind sharing how u were able to fix it? i'm on the same screen.

For all you guys ... You need to enter download mode using 3 button combo and then flash a full package with odin .

just keep trying to get into download mode. it may take a few tries/battery pull but it will eventually work! Do not fear

HELP phone briked

Hi there i have a SGS which was running ics on a custom rom working fine
I then wanted to flash the official 2.3.6 os back on it for a friend.
I put the phone into download mode then odin did'nt do anything so i turned it off
now i can't see anything on the phone when i turn on the power key please can i do anything?

Check your drivers on your labtop and retry to put the GS in download mode

Try going in recovery system and do all three wipes...

I've got a better solution and with it your phone will never be bricked in the future.
But you can use it only if you are handyman.
Follow this thread :

and your phone will resurect and will be immortal ^^( manner of talk, if you drop it from the 51 floor of a building it will not survive).

u seriously doing it?? O.O
wish u luck though..

@drakester20 the utube video that you sent me went back to xda site and said it will only work if the bootloader is workin mine is'nt
and
that method you showed on disecting the phone might be my only option
just out of curiosity could i give it to samsung and will they detect that it has been rooted?
BTW i installed a I9100 flash file on to the odin when i did it which was samsung s2 flash file now i realise what went wrong
Me being a **** head and installing the wrong file.:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

1-Remove battery, sim card and sd card
2-wait 3~4 minutes
3-put your charger on galaxy (i lost my charger, used the usb cable and worked)
4-Hold power, and at the same time (dont release power), put battery, press vol.down and home button (in this order)
5-keep holding the buttons for 5~10 seconds
your galaxy must be online again..
i'm sorry for my bad english, but i think its understandable ;p

It's easy you just have to make a bridge between two connectors (OMX5 and OMX0) and after you flash a software. If this manipulation can make my phone like a survivor i can do it ^^

Don't worry about that the GS2 has a counter who is incremented when u flash a non official software it's a trick that the constructor used to help the Samsung's technicians to know if you can use the guarantee or not but the GS1 isn't equipped of this system, then it doesn't matter.

so @drakester20 are u saying that i can give it samsung and they wont know and charge mer nothing?

yeah dude.. they wont know ur binary resets anyway.. if u had sgs2 then they could have figured it out in download mode coz there it is written in download mode..
u can give it a try though...

@drakester20 so what did u tell samsung when your phone got briked.
Just found found out that my phone still has warranty till the end of next moth.
What should I say to them?
Should i say i used samsung kies to update then a failure message came on my screen ?
What should i say as I am running out of time and my warranty is nearly about to go?

It's not a 100% sure solution. Only a few had a problem worth to use it in our device. In my knowledge, most of them succeeded to get in to the download mode(That's not assuring you will). :fingers-crossed: Keep your battery fully charged by any other methods.
You can try it yourself. You can get one for just $1.6 from here or build one using this guide

Thank you!, i will try to buy one, i just did not saw any video in youtube describing my problem i think its just full brick and can't be fixed

nope. not turning on was full brick, u need unbrickable mod (UBM), jig for error entering download mode with 3 button combo or adb
n is it really brick? try charge it, juz plug da fone n leave it for 2 hours n boot it after that
n for ur info, error in flashing will result in middle or softbrick, if doesnt even turn on after flashing something with odin, then its not i9000 as flash i9003 with i9000 rom will result in full brick (which mean u need UBM for this problem)

S I9000 won't power up

Hi all,
I have a serious situation with my S I9000, I really need some help.
So I had jelly bean Cyanogenmod 10, It worked fine until one day I updated it, and then I tried to Update some apps using Google Play App but the update didn't finish and cause me lots of unworkable apps.
I rebooted my phone to recovery mode, I made a backup, and then tried to restore an old backup (before I updated Cyanogenmod) but then the phone didn't want to start, It powers up but stays at "Samsung galaxy S....." welcome screen forever.
I was not able to start in recovery mode, how ever the downloading mode worked, then I tried to flash android 2.3.6 with odin but it failed.
And now my phone won't power up and doesn't show anything, even the charging screen.
I know I really messed things up but I really need your assistant guys.
Thank you (and sorry for my weak English)

What did you flash through Odin?

It's probably a hard-brick (I had the same problem last week). There are two ways that can solve it.
First is with a USB Jig. You can buy one (are super cheap) or trying to construct one by yourself. Here are some posts of handmade USB Jigs:
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331782
The second way is by taking your phone to the shop.
Hope it helps you!

Thank you, but I think that USB Jig doesn't work, cause the phone doesn't show anything at all : no downloading/recover mode and no battery charging screen.
I heard about JTAG.. do you have a tutorial for that ?
Thanks again.

JTAG i think is only used by professionals, so i don't think there is any guide about it

is it really i9000? or i9003?
as far as i know, flashing i9000 ROM into i9003 will hardbrick ur fone

yes I'm sure it's i9000

You can not restore any pre-CM backup as it has different format. I had the same situation last week and learned now how to revive my i9000
It is just a soft brick probably, if you have download mode (check 3-buttons) let me know if it works, I will help you later then.

I solved the problem.
The phone was completely dead. downloading mode or recovery mode didn't work even the battery charge status wouldn't appear.
The solution was JTAG. it's complicated and used only by professionals as @TenKoX said.

I'm not sure about this one but if the phone was mine I would try to flash a stock kernel ftf with flashtool. it might be you flashed something bad and things got corrupted. and if the phone is stuck like this your phone will probably not charge, so the battery is dead. in which case you cannot flash an entire rom. try to flash only the kernel from this using flashtool. .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2647207
if this works then place your phone on charge for a few hours.
then reflash the entire stock ftf.
if none of this works I'm not sure what else you can try. good luck!

I have had this exact same problem for months now and thought I tried everything. But I guess not.:good: Just wondering what you did after you completed the wiring on the battery. Did you charge it for a certain amount of time,before turning it on? Did you have to flash a stock rom? Any input would be very helpful. Thanks
