The only thing it will do is flash AT&T logo.... can i get it fixed. or i will have to put it for sale as parts ? thanks hope someone can give me a good advice and help me repair it ...

It can definitely be fixed, it's just a matter of how easily it can be done. Have you tried some of the unusual combinations people have come up with to get into download mode. For example removing the battery, holding power + volume down + home and then reinserting the battery whilst these buttons are held?
Also, if you can't get into download mode that doesn't mean you have to sell it as parts. Samsung will be able to repair it, if they can't tell what you did then perhaps they'll repair it for free under warranty.

Sometimes I just wonder why people try to install low-level software on their device that ISNT MEANT for their device. There is a reason, the captivate has a different model number and that is because it requires DIFFERENT software.
This comes close to me flashing the BIOS for an AMD motherboard on my X58 Intel motherboard.

reason for people installing other software is in my case because im STUPID !!! I stood almost 24 h reading forums in my country and stuff , and i googled ODIN the first link was this ODIN ONE CLIK i entered read about things there and it seamed to be for my phone, and from there we know the story. I did not think for one moment that the soft was for another phone. After i broke it i read all 42 pages and realized that.
I can't get the phone to do anything.... i can't charge it ... it's like the USB does not exist. If i start the phone unpluged, when i plug the usb in turns oFF , ass soon as i take out the USB it will start again to flash the AT&T logo...
I hope if i can't fix it, that SAMSUNG service will change it or can repair it and not charge a hunormus amount of money for that
you have give me hope telling that it can be fixed by samsung , and i still am opened for advices from u guys

thanks, im not going to be upset if people make fun, they can do it because i was so stupid not to see that the soft is for another phone and brake it with my own hand. Isn't on this forum someone that works for Samsung and can tell me for sure what to do , or if the service can do ?

if we´d have this guy here, the galaxy s would be worlds top android device out of the box, since this guy would perfectly know what the problems are with it and could easily manage to incorporate fixes found here or based on testing people made here...

i was not referring to a developer from samsung or an engineer, i was asking for a guy that works in a Samsung service, and could tell me if my problem can be resolved in the service.

Why don't you just call them and ask yourself?

Im sorry but you screwed up. Im sure samsung can fix it but charge you heaps of money. You could always "loose" your phone if you have insurance

you don't have these option very often in this country... i know only one person that has these type of insurance...

Well there is a way of getting your phone working by putting a file on your sd card but you'd have to look for that .

Actually, you should try it... I've been told that flashing Intel boards with AMD firmwares allows unlimited overclocking! or not.

I'm sorry for that. It's a little bit of frustration speaking there. But I guess you have a way bigger problem. Although that post about putting the right file on the SD seems interesting (but I haven't heard of anything like that before).
But if you can, returning the phone and hoping that samsung will fix it will be the easiest fix.

im sure samsung can fix it evan by changing the sd in the phone with the correct soft will solve it, but i want to see if there is another way of doing it

[Q] Galaxy tab nighmare :s

Hi guys.
I kinda mad a big mistake. I have a galaxy tab p1000 and mistakenly flashed a firmware which belongs to p1010. Yeah silly!!!!!! The flash was successful but it totally killed the tab. It will not boot at all no power whatsoever. I left it in the charger for like two hours nothing
is there hope?? Or did that firmware do damage to the tab?? Can i repair it myself or does it need to go to be revived at samsung. Or i hung myself???
Help please.

Have you tried booting into download mode? Once you do, flash it back to stock. You can find stock ware in the dev section. Doubt its truly bricked.

Yeah i have tried the two button combo. Power button and volume down but i get no response. I duno wsup. I cant get power on the damn thing??? Cant get into download mode : s

Try what was done in this post...it seems that even though the screen was blank, he was actually in download mode, and able to flash.

Just curious...
If you just bricked your tab, why does your Signature show that you're using a GT-P1000 to post?

Well i am lucky to have 2 tabs and galaxy s. Imma a samsung fanboy/man. And it pains me to know i might have bricked one tab. If u will be so kind n give me a solution??
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App

Thinking that your battery has been ran out.
Just left it to charge for 4-5 hours and try again.
Bricking the device isn't such easy. I made unbelieveble things with my tabs but got it to work again. But I also stucked to that battery thing.

Did you flash the bootloader as well? If you did and the bootloader goes out to lunch, then the Oden/Heimdall tools won't be of much use. In such a case you might be able to find some instruction on how to use a JTAG module to fix the tab. Though, taking the device apart is probably not a trivial thing.

I flashed the tab with firmware from the p1010 tab and mines p1000. So im assuming it erased everything. How much can a service repair cost??Cause if there is no option apart from jtag. I have to to send it in!!!!!
As i cant get any response whatsoever. Left it overnight charging, plugged it into the comp restarting stuff. Tried tricking it by plugging galaxy s and tab at the same time. But nothing.?????

HTC Vivid QPST Download Mode

Does anyone have any knowledge of working QPST? I bricked (yes I take full blame) my g/f's Vivid while trying to update to ICS. Just like various others on here it appears everything has been deleted from the phone....including the bootloader. But after a couple of days of working with it I have finally been able to get windows to recognize and install the qualcomm drivers. I have installed the latest copy of QPST and it recognizes the phone on com6 in download mode.
Does anyone have ANY IDEAS?? The sad thing for me is I traded my g/f's iPhone to get her this Vivid....so there is no way to exchange it under warranty. Any help would be appreciated.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

QPST is for very very low level nand access, it can even change the partition tables, if i were u i would be EXTREMELY carefull using it.

I understand the dangers of using QPST......but being the phone is already bricked and there doesn't seem to be any way to resolve the issue without sending the phone back to HTC, I am willing to try. So, I ask again, does anyone know how to use QPST??

RIFF box is the only option!! I guess

I am online checking out the RIFF box....have you already ordered one?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

No i dont , But I have a friend who does, else I wil just take it to Local HTC , im sure they can fix it !!!

Riffbox doesnt support our chipset.
You need to find the hex files for download mode in QPST and go from there.

OK. Do you have ANY idea where those can be found?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

PMed.
To anyone looking for answers towards the QPST route:
Start googleing, I haven't the slightest clue where you'll come across the .hex files for our phone.
For anyone hoping that Riffbox will soon support our chipset:
I wouldn't hold my breath, HTC has started to implement "JTAG fuses" (Kinda like on the Xbox) so even if it was supported, your chance of JTAG access is very unlikely.

In otherwords, we don't have the phone firmware required (.hex and .mbn files which I neglected to put in my previous post). The Sensation, on the other hand, does.
Sensation firmware =/= Vivid firmware

Hi Travis , can we be atleast sure that HTC can fix it !!! I hope its not beyond REPAIR LOL

Bring the whole phone back to AT&T (at one of their warranty centers), you should at least have a one year warranty. Tell them that one day it just stopped working.
Even though your warranty may be voided, they won't be able to find that out if it's bricked. If they want to find out, they'd have to unbrick it first.
So, one of two things may happen:
1) They will not ask any questions and replace the phone.
2) They will put it under a deeper inspection, unbrick it, and say that they can't go any further because of the unlocked bootloader (but, the phone will not be bricked anymore and they'll just give it back to you).
This is only a theory haha, don't quote me and say it didn't work.

hope a fix can be found soon, I have one too

The area where i see the touch points is on left side of my screen from the top until down...sometimes if is unlocked is open the calls and then is appear numbers like 1,4,7 and *, if i am in menu is scrolling up and down ...is strange behaviour. Someone there is able to help me, or i must to return to service?

If u flash a diferent rom and kernel and the problem persists try to go back to factory kernel and rom if even at this time is stil persists the problem ...the solution for me was :
There is a touch screen problem...touch pad malfunction and for me the only way to repair was to send in service...or to buy a new mobile...so i give my mobile to recycling program and i get 28 euro , i count my points from bills and i got another 49 euro...with this money i use to pay around 120 euro difference and i got a Nokia Lumia 610 is a windows mobile and i will see what he can do...until now i am happy with what i have.
If u want to stay on Android i suggest u to go for Sony Xperia Arc S...but i am afraid u will have later the same problem.
This is what i did, u do as u like...the choice is yours! Sorry for my negative answer!
Greetings!

im too facing same problm

Hi,
your answer is here!. Seems to be a hardware short circuit.
maybe putting your open device close to a warm source to dry it will give you 15.031969% to save it...
Else, I fear you need Samsung service..

I don't mean to be rude but why did you open a thread here on XDA about this?
This site is for mobile phone/tablet development.
You have bought a faulty device, it happens.
You need to take it back for a replacement, simple.
I hope you get it sorted! It's never nice buying something and it not working properly.

i believe it got something to do with calibration or something related to software
as phone was flashed earlier and it might be something to do with flashing
i was thinking of writing NV calibration data from another phone to see if that may help, but thought of getting more ideas first.
WBR

Oh right, fair enough then. I thought it was brand new and you'd just taken it out of the box.

as good as new, only a few days used, sending it back would be costly
so i thought to get some ideas if it could be calibration data or something, as i have already flashed it but it didn't yield any result..
