Can't enter Recovery mode

Hey guys I have an Indian Galaxy pop aka galaxy mini running 2.2.1 .
I wanted to flash CM7 on it so I first flashed the CWM recovery from tj_styles thread via odin .. it flashed successfully and the phone booted but now I can't get into recovery mode ...
Tried home + power, terminal emulator, qtadb .. it just gives a black screen or gets stuck on the Samsung screen...
Anyone knows what the problem is? Any help would be appreciated

Upgrade to GB first then flash cwm.

CWM only work in gingerbread..

Rom manager is not compatible with our device and you have hard bricked (broken bootloader) and now you must give to samsung service for repair.

Actually, ROM Manager is capable of bricking the Motherboard, and this situation is termed as "Hard Brick" ie, the phone is completely dead. You can't enter recovery/download mode or boot up.
So, only the Samsung Service guys can replace the motherboard in order for the phone to function properly.
On the other hand, if the bootloader is bricked, it is also a case of Hard brick, but some devices can recover from this stage, but no idea about Galaxy Mini. I guess only locked bootloader is dangerous more than unlocked bootloader, and Galaxy Mini's is unlocked. Normally every Samsung's bootloader is unlocked I guess.

Phone doesn't need motherboard replacement. It could be fixed with JTAG like RiffBox in any better service. I have RiffBox and several GT-S5570 phones were fixed with JTAG method.
It isn't simple but is possible. Phone should be disassembled, eight wires soldered to the motherboard and through JTAG access rewrite boot loader to the OneNAND memory. After resurrection finished, it's possible to switch phone to the download mode and continue flashing with Odin.

try install your stock rom via odin, and later install cmw, later of this you can flash what you wants, i recomend cmw touch updated

And what was the need of reviving a 1 year old thread
Want 10 posts then post something useful in current topics

be careful on flashing the bootloader buddy.. it can hard brick your phone.. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK..

Brick
Hehe. Now I bricked my phone. When I turn it on it just shows blank screen. But I talked with my Dad and we decided to make a jig usb. Well tomorow Im going to buy a 300k resistor and micro usb. I will try to make a jig usb with my dad so then I can put my phone into download mode and flash it. I hope this gonna work http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOxtYSdEy-o

You got a nice dad man. If I tell my dad about USB jigs he would shout at me saying "WHO THE **** ASKED YOU TO ****ING SCREW UP YOUR PHONE? NOW SUFFER!"

I'm not sure if you already tried this:
Remove batery
connect phone to pc
put phone in Download mode (while the battery is still removed.))
Flash with ODIN.

Are you able to get into recovery mode ?

Sorry bro, your Ace+ is now RIP. I used Smniller (or someone spelled equivalent to this ) no my Mini and Ace before. Theyre still dead

The Ace+ is a lot more sensitive to ROM flashes, and it bricks easily.
Yes, your phone is now dead. You can send it off to Samsung for repair - just say it died whilst it was charging. DO NOT TELL THEM YOU WERE FLASHING WITH ODIN.

I just bricked my Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus after installing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764341
The phone wont turn on, wont charge, wont do anything anymore. My samsung has died...

hello, my phone is bricked too...
its just vibrating..
i tried removing battery n connecting to pc while holding buttons for download/ recovery mode but both modes appear for few seconds..
say only for 10 seconds n then odin dsnt detect my phone..
can you help plz???

But will they help at samsung? I mean, if you flash sth on your phone, you'll lose warranty, so they tell you you shouldn't have done it and it's your fault, won't they?

XD, that would be funny
Well but you're right, just try it

Exactly happened to me I flashed hyperion8 and my phone is bricked how you described.
I phoned samsung today and told them my phone went off in the middle of a call and will no longer turn on(DO NOT MENTION FLASHING OR ROMs), tried different battery, tried pluging into charge, tried pluggin into computer, tried different charger, phone has never been dropped etc etc
They sending out packaging so can send to Samsung care, they guy said expect it to be returned 7-10 days later.
So happy days

Same here I bricked my phone ....don't remember exactly how gave it ssc didn't mention flashing and stuff and they are noob enough to fix phone for free so having warranty works in the advantage of flashing and all ......luckily my mini had two years warranty but it got over about a year ago and still mini is my main phone so cheer up and give it yo ssc

Does your phone still has a warranty?? If it still has a warranty, you can try to bring it up to the Samsung Service Centre..
By the way, excuse me, do you know what the differences of Download and Recovery mode is??
You said that "Only have response when i try to get it in recovery mode , (vol up + home + power) nothing appears on screen , but odin detects my mobile", what does it mean?
If you want to flash a stock-rom via Odin, just boot to download mode, not recovery mode..
