I'm bricked my Galaxy Mini while trying to unlock it with stl5 method, actually after mounting it as /data/efs
Now my phone can only enter into download and ARM9 mode, but reflashing with Odin not work because phone can't power on after reboot.
It looks like it need JTAG. Is there any way to flash it using Wiggler cable and OpenOCD?
Sorry for my english, i'm from Russia.
UP. Please, help me, I really need that phone working :crying:
If there's no way to do this, say it as is.

I can not do anything.... I visited all the forums, but there is a solution, but I do know if the usb jig would work .. Because all youtube video showing usb jig with the problem of the panel exclamation between the cell and the computer, but they do not show the same problem as me
Thing is IF a jig wont fix it you will have to send it to get fixed with a Jtag. Jig can be made with little cost (made mine for about $2.50) or buy em already made for $8-$11.
Keep in mind when I say the jig can fix i mean it can force your phone in to download mode.
-Pull battery
-Plug usb cable
-Put battery & hold Vol+/Vol-
If you can't go in download via this method you need a usb jig to force it.
Then reflash with Odin until successfull. You just had a bad flash and a bad fs will not let you boot the phone normally and use the button combo to go into download so you need to bypass with the usb cable method or the jig.

So let me get this right. You just bought the phone, then watched a video without reading anything and now your stuck. Please do your part is saving hard bricked devices. DO THE RESEARCH.
Yea flashing roms is a big deal you should be sure you read everything before tring then read it a 2nd and 3rd time. And not just info in the op all the info on your device.
Good luck

So I accidentally flashed an AT&T firmware (Captivate) on a Korean-Type Samsung Galaxy S. To be more specific and detailed, I've written everything below.
Firmware Flashed: 2.3.5 SGH-I897_I897UCKJ1_UC_ATT
Phone I Flashed: SHW-M110S)
My Problem: I ca'nt get into download mode to flash the correct firmware to get it to boot correctly. It turns on, and I can get into recovery mode, but not download mode. The phone turns on, and goes through all the startup screens, but gets stuck on the colorful "S" screen, then reboots again. The second time it boots, it goes past the "S" screen then the screen just turns black. I have no idea what to do.
Any help? Advice? Or suggestions?
Thanks so much in advance
Do you have CWM recovery? If so you can copy a rom in the sd with your computer, plug it in the phone, mount the external_sd and load it from there.
Else, you can get Download mode with an usb cable, search in youtube, there are some interesting videos.
May be you need Usb Jig to go into download mode Instructions below
Needed materials:
1)SgS I9000 (obviously)
2)Microusb Pin with 100*3ohm+1ohm Connected in series to pin 4 and 5Diy tutorial here(otherwise buy it in ebay)
remove your battery fro about 2 min then plug in the usb jig it powers on automatically otherwise just do the normal vol down+enter+power
viola we got download mode
after that download your rom thru odin using a pc
Sorry for my bad English,If i spelled something wrong or a grammatical mistake please correct me

Your English is quite good, your French however not so..
"viola" should be "voilà"
UPDATE: Now the phone won't turn on at all. Not even when its plugged in to the wall or the computer...

Use jig method it will work
be sure to take of the battery for 1 min (check the battery voltage using a multimeter it should be around 3.7 above voltsotherwise charge it in ur phone it does charge)and reinsert it and then plug the usb jig NOT THE USB Cable and it powers on automatically otherwise boot it up using vol down+enter+power while the usb jig is connected
Thanks for the help everyone. I've decided to just buy a usb jig after all... Since most of the replies say to do so. I'll order one on ebay, but my last question is does it matter which one I get? I see a lot of Samsung galaxy s2 and galaxy s usb jigs. Mine is the Korean type i9000 and I also have an s2. Is the i9000 usb jig compatible with my Korean one? And there's this usb jig that says its for a galaxy s i9000 AND a galaxy s2 i9100, can I just buy that one for both of my phones?

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
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
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???
Dear fellows,
I need your help. My colleague has some how bricked his Galaxy I9000 device. As per discussion he said he tried to upgrade the rom and accidently the rom he selected for flash via odine was for I9003 which is a variant of Galaxy S line of product.
Now what happened is the phone is completely dead no download mode nothing its all dead. I prepared a USB Jig and plugged in and followed our expert's guidelines but still no success. The device is still dead. One hunch of mine was drained battery and I put it on charging and observed the back (camera side) was slightly heating up when i checked after couple of hour of charging but the situation remained the same.
Any suggestion to recover this device and what has happened to the device? Is the samsung phone are so fragile? Im personally using Xperia X10i and never faced such problem even bricked its all recoverable via software workarounds.
Please suggest
Thanks Faisal
well i dont know if this will help but ill give it a try. when you plug the phone into the computer does the computer recognize the device? if it does see if it recognizes in odin. if thats all good in odin (gives you a port number) then to flash these files http://www.mediafire.com/?34oxweahfpy53dj
just un rar and follow readme. this may not work for you but a while back i hd a simular problem and this is how i fixed it so try it see if it works. If it does hit thanks.
ps this has also worked on different devices with simular problems but i did it with different files(the ones meant for the proper device form samfirmware.com)
Good Luck!
try option bootloader flash in odin, if you flash a firmware package.
should be recoverable for sure
last resort would be Unbrickable mod
the files i posted will flash bootloaders at the sme time. At least thats what i think the sbl file that it flashes is
How can he flash via odin when he can't even get into download mode??
Anyways I think u gotta replace jtag now..
If my post helped, don't mind hitting THANKS

well if you read what i posted i clearly said that i had simular problems, meaning ive been to the point where i couldnt get into dl mode or recovery and that is how i fixed it. heres a example; start to flash via odin and unplug while its flashing. Then try to go into dl mode or recovery. You cant! it scared the crap out of me, so i didnt give up and all i had to do is plug it into the computer and i recognized it in odin. so i flashed and there i had it it was fixed
Thanks for responses
Hi Guys,
thanks for responses but when the device is plugged with PC no activity at all. Fully dead
My colleague acquired repair services and recovered the phone because I dont have JTAG/RIFF with me.
Unbrickable mod was hard to try specially modification by shorting resistors from device motherboard.
Thanks
Faisal
SGS i9000b hard bricked and dead

I didnt understand your messege. Whats a JTAG/RIFF. Should I try the USB Jig on mine?
I hard bricked a SGS I9000B and its not even mine, I mean it wont turn on, wont light up the screen, wont give any working sign, when battery is inserted for a long time the phone warms up. 3 buttons wont work, sliding the battery in and pressing 3 buttons also wont work. Should I try the USB JIG?
Hi. My s3 mini is hard bricked. Don't turn on, recovery and download mode don't work either, and when i connect to pc via usb, windows make a sound and then after 2 sec. sound disconnected.
I read through forum, i can boot it with an sd card, but i need debrick file for s3 mini. Can someone help me? I need a s3 mini debrick file. Help!
Edit: jig usb don't work too, and my model is gt i8190 and i tried with another battery, but doesn't work.
I don't think you can "unbrick" your device, its gone.

The only thing that could save you is a JTAG service.
