Hi All
I was playing around with custom roms on my phone and stupidly managed to brick the phone.
I accidentally clicked the option repartition in ODIN when flashing a ROM...... I think this is how I bricked it.
I want to get it back to the official Optus 2.3.6 I9000XWJW6_I9000OPSJV6_OPS, I downloaded this official ROM from here (SamMobile)
If I try to install the above rom the phone just gets stuck on the start-up screen. (I notice errors in the phones recovery when trying to install the official firmware)
Or if anyone can get me back to a working phone with working firmware that would be awesome.
Any help would be much appreciated...
Thanks!
Found the solution!
This worked, thank god.

I tried to flash my sprint galaxy tab with the firmware that allows you to make phone calls... now i realize that was not for sprint. is there anyway to get back to how i was before with 3g? i was able to load Zypher but that doesnt give me my 3g back. Please help!
Ever figure it out? I bricked mine too :'(
Find and flash an ODIN package that contains the original firmware plus the modem.bin for the radio. PM me if you need any further assistance.
do you guys have the sprint pit and rom?
I tried to do euro flash and get errors in recovery mode about not being able to mount e?
Bricked Sprint Tab!!!
Hey guys I'm a newbie myself but with a little bit of reading I was able to fix the bricked issue. Follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869819 and the Sprint Stock Rom is here. One is with a modem and one is without. For those who are wanting to get back the 3g as it says in the link it uses the 4g epic dump. It looks like your out of luck. Because once you dump this modem there is no going back it's for good. So your better off sticking with the WiFi for now till one day a sprint modem is dumped. I'm also learning myself and also in the process in flashing this via Odin3. I to have bricked my tab lastnight just doing a factory reset. I was using the VooDoo with full CMW ! So just follow the instructions very carefully and you should get your tab working again.

Exactly Same thing happen to my device while Flashing Stock ROM. i just restarted in Recovery mode then did a Wipe / Factory reset. and wipe cache. then restarted . everything went fine.
Hi Everyone,
Recently, I got a Galaxy S I9000M from a friend. The phone was running 2.1 firmware when I got it. There were two updates for the phone from kies(2.2 & Gingerbread) I updated the phone to 2.2 froyo from kies. later, kies stopped to recognise my phone. so I thought to root my phone and did using rootme 2.2. I don`t know if the phone was rooted but I could see superuser. Then I flashed with some ROM and messed my phone. on booting the phone stuck on blinking on galaxy s logo and will not start. After flashing few more firmware, I am stuck on brick picture on phone. I cannot go to recovery also but I can go to download mode. I am guessing that flashing the stock 2.1 may help to start the device. I have searched everywhere to find the stock 2.1 for i9000M but cannot find because many links are dead and samfirmware.com does not show me the old firmware. By the way, I have downloaded stock 2.3.3 (samsung-updates.com) which I don`t know will work.
Please help me to find the stock firmware or any other way though which I can solve my problem. Tell me which files do I need and how can I flash.
Thanking everyone in anticipation.
Edit: I found stock froyo 2.2 files and phone is working again
Good afternoon!
I am Brazilian and I have a samsung galaxy s3 mini (GT-I8190L) as soon as I got the unit root and installed a custom rom, but after a few days, he was no longer binding, so I tried to go back to stock rom without success, but yesterday I saw in another topic that the CWM to flash the sec_csc arrogant, so I followed the tip from Tyson and went back to stock recovery, and that's what I did, and went perfectly rom, but now I face another problem when I try to connect the phone appears off, and try to make a call, the call is terminated immediately.
I am currently with the stock rom CLARO BRAZIL.
I hope someone can help me, and I thank you.
This is my first post, I apologize if I posted or did something wrong.

I'm also a noob (so someone correct me if I'm wrong) but I have put my phone back to stock twice.
Since my phone was soft-bricked and I couldn't get into recovery mode, I went into download mode and used the WIPE file from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2030282 in Odin (Load it in "PDA"). Then put the pre-rooted official firmware in the "PDA" in Odin. You can maybe try this, just check the files you use are compatible for your model version (I8190L).

Hello there im not shure if this will help you but if you can flash the 2.3.6 and then to the 4.1.2 and get that working it might be possible to flash to the 4.2.2 , without knowing for shure i think that might be some issues "jumping" too far at one time like going from 2.2 to 4.2.2 ( just an example ) ............ as you can read in my post about a different problem + boot loop in my post http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab/help/galaxy-tab-gt-p1000-black-screen-lights-t2900334 i "think" i might have solved my boot loop problem when trying to flash 2.3.6 by flashing the dbdata file before alowing the tablet to boot into android as showed in the VIO vidoe on youtube.... so what im trying to say is......
try to get 2.3.6 working on your tablet by following.................... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuAgACCWdw8
and then root it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qrwDDd205o
and then flashing to 4.1.2.......... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOnhvCcJUKw
and when you have 4.1.2 working you might try to flash to 4.2.2 ?
i hope this helps you. ( there might be a simpler sollution to boot loop problem but dont know for shure ) )
