[Q] HELP!! Phone is dead I think...

Hi, I just rooted my phone and installed Darky's ROM etc. Everything went perfectly but I just did a factory reset on my phone through the settings > privacy menu. Then i turned my phone off, now it's stuck on the boot screen (the one that says:
Galaxy S
GT-I9000
Samsung
)
Anyone know what I can do to resolve this?
PS, I've tried booting into recovery and download mode,- only download mode works

Flash ressurrection with Odin, or just try reflash a kernel.
Post in right section next time !
And don't say "dead" "brick" if you have download mode, nothing is more "noob" !

Flash another ROM in Odin with re-partition. You need CSC, Modem, and ROM. The next time, factory reset/wipe, clear cache, and clear Dalvik cache before flashing to a custom ROM, not after.
Also, this is the wrong section for this.

If download mode still works, its unlikely that its ' dead'.
Probably just a corrupted filesystem or some missing file that it needs.
If youve tried everything else, the thing left to do is flash a complete firmware via either Odin or Heimdall, in download mode. That should give you a working phone again.

First, wrong section... post in the right section next tome.
Get darky resurection edition and flash with odin, then reflash darky nornal rom from cwm

follow this guide for flashing stock rom --> http://darky.ficeto.com/community/i...-stock-rom-over-darkys-rom-gt-i9000-only.486/
AND: if you can access DL mode then Recov Mode is working too. You are just doing something wrong then ... for Recov Mode you need to release all buttons when Galaxy S logo appears.

For questions maybe the questions and answers section
Anyway, with download mode our phone is pretty much unbrick/killable unless you flash another bootloader which is a) rare and b) not really a threat either

I think my phone is dead.... can anyone help me verify that? I've been reading all over and tried all ways to get a response, but there's none.
I pulled the battery and let it sit for several hours before inserting. - No response.
Put in my spare batte, have it plugged to charger. Also no response.
Plug to PC, PC doesn't even see the phone.
Cannot go into recover, download or boot or show any signs of life.
It was charging fine one moment (last saw about 80%) then about 10 min later, went to unplug to use.... but found the phone dead and rather warm. (not sure if that is usual since the batt was being charged)
Anyway, I flashed my phone only 1 week ago using "Insane" kernel and doing Overclock to 1200 with about -75 undervolt across the frequencies. Did I kill the phone by doing this ???
What are my chancs of getting warranty on it if the service centre manages to find out it had been flashed??
What are my options now? Any other areas to chek and try to recover?
Thanks

Well, if you can't get into download mode, there is still one more step to try before giving up. Go to ebay and search for I9000 usb jig. That might be able to force your phone into download mode. (They are cheap. Very cheap.)
If that doesn't work, there's nothing else you can do but to bring it back to a service centre.

Check out the info for the rig you mentioned. Apparently, it doesn't wotk for phones that are totally dead. i.e. no signs of life at when buttons are pressed, no lights etc.
I brought the set down the to service centre and luckily, the lady there did not ask me anything much. She just swapped out the batt to verify, plugged into USB charger to verify... then started to fill in the form for the phone to be sent in for repairs. Though she's not the repair person.... she did mentioned that all data would be lost and most likely a new board would be put in.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that'll be the case... just gimme a new PCBA w/o trying to repair the current one. Hope they don't have any diagnostic tool/fixture where they can boot from a "debug" chip (such as processor, etc) to do board level repair.... then it might just show up that I'm running a modified kernel & ROM.

They cant check, if you were runnig custom ROM. Stop worrying, mostly they do not have a choice but to replace PCB. This is my personal exp. with samsung.

My Galaxy Note Is DEAD!!

Hi everybody, I searched everywhere for a solution but no luck
i love my note so much that if i couldnt fix it i think im gonna kill myself.
let me tell you the whole story, maybe you can revive my note again.
im a daily rom flasher, sometimes even 2 or 3 roms a day,
i wanted to flash ics stunner rom so i went into cwm recovery,flashed the zip file and wanted to format data\factory reset, but while the phone was formatting i accidently pressed the power button, the phone was stuck and didn't complete formatting, i took the battery out, put it back in and powered the phone, it was stuck at the bootscreen GTn7000 Galaxy Note.
I got into download mode and flashed a stock rom, but it was the same.
i downloaded and flashed other stock roms but it was stuck at the bootscreen.
then i wanted to flash a stock rom that came with a Pit file, i did everythig correctly, and Odin was stuck at the partition thing, for more than 15 minutes.
i unpluged the phone i pressed the power button, NOTHING!!
i officially bricked my phone which i worked so hard for months to get it.
i tried everything,even the jig thing, i couldn't buy so i had to make one.
maybe i did somethig wrong with the jig or maybe because i didnt solder it or the usb plug im using isnt working.
this may be relevant, i pluged the usb OTG in the phone and in the OTG was a bluetooth peice for computers, the piece had a light, and the light was ON.
Another thing that if i leave the battery in the phone for a while, the camera area in the back gets a little hot, my phone always did that meaning its still alive.
i may have written too much, forgive me but im really desperate.
Thanks in advance.

You probably end up going to Samsung. Pay €200 and get a new motherboard.
Good luck.

WOW...
the problem is that i live in a fu**ed up country and we dont have samsung here.
all phones come without warranty and by smuggling from other countries

You mentioned killing yourself. Bro it's just a phone... Hang in there!!!

First thing donot flash Ics now untill you are craze about it.2nd donot use CWM as much as possible.Read this.
Ok to the problem now.Since you say it gets hot,it might be still alive.Remove the battery and insert it after 10 secs and insert the jig and after few secs press vol up button.Now connect the phone to computer and see if its detected if it does try flashing abyy's kernel.I dont know which kernel for sure.Somebody might help you.People were able to get into DL mode when there screen were not showing anything.

There are situations when your phone is working, but your screen is black.
Let's hope yours is one of those...Try this:
1. Don't flash Abyss. Download a stock GB Rom instead.
2. Charge your phone for a couple of hours. You need your battery for the
following steps.
3. After charging, take out your battery and wait 1 minute
4. Put it back in
5. Boot into Download mode (Volume Down+Home+Power) (you will see only black screen)
6. Count to 10
7. Press Volume Up
8. Count to 10
9. Start your PC Odin
10. Connect your phone to PC
11. Wait untill PC installs the necessary drivers
12. If all goes well, your PC Odin will flash the yellow light with COM info in it
13. Flash your stock GB Rom
If this doesn't work, you'll need to think of the ways of getting your phone JTagged or where to get a new motherboard.

Dude, if you have no way of repairing a bricked phone in your country then stay away from flashing custom ROMs!!!

Your phone is pretty much dead I'm afraid
Why didn't you bother to read stickies first?
It has been known for several weeks now that doing a wipe from CWM in a leaked recovery (I.e all ICS ROMs except cm9 official) will lead to a corrupted emmc drive ,thus a dead phone
And no ,you pressing the power button had nothing to do with it being stuck
The moment you hit wipe from ICS stunner's recovery your phone was dommed.
Anyway what's done is done ,now find an unofficial repair shop and replace your motherboard.
I hope this makes it clear ,and good luck to you.

OK, how much will it cost me ?
by the way i forgot to mention that before i bricked the note, it had a charging problem, saying voltage too high,charging stopped,and when the phone is turned off the battery icon keeps appearing and disapearing, could it be that the jig is not working because of that??

Try a different USB cable?

You're not going to like this: I had to send my phone back to Samsung to get that fixed. Basically the charging port was shorting out, happens when stuff gets inside it (dirt, moisture, etc, from what I read). You could try cleaning it, but for me the port didn't break, it just acted like it was charging when there was nothing plugged in. So the JIG will work if it's supposed to.

I don't mind sending it to another country, but which Samsung center will accept it?

Bricked ace keeps restarting (cannot go into recovery/CWM)

Hello all!
First of all, I would like to thank the entire XDA for all the help and great developers for all their hard work and everything! You're THE BEST REALLY!
I hope you could help me with my problem :/
A few days ago, I flashed a custom rom (i've changed a lot of them already and this has never happened to me before). After flashing the phone the android system worked perfectly fine but after rebooting, phone just keept (and still is) restarting every 3 seconds. I cannot go into CWM recovery, only into Download mode. I've tried flashing stock rom with odin and in the end when it says > Close serial port and wait until rebooting, phone just keeps rebooting again. (Black screen, flash for a second and then again reboot). I've found someone on YT who has recorded the same problem so that you would understand what am I trying to say.
Type SAMSUNG GALAXY ACE (NEED HELP IT WON'T BOOT!) into YT and you will see the problem. ( i cannot paste the link)
What could i do? Btw, i've searched the forums for solutions but i didn't find a single 1 that would help me I cannot do it even with odin
PLEASEE HELP ME

Hello! So the only option would be to change the motherboard I guess?:/ Phone is in warranty unitil 17th of February but I don't know if they will repair it because I don't have stock rom on it anymore :/. I've changed many roms and the latest installed is CM10. Do you think that they will see which ROM and other stuff is on if It doesn't even boot? Is there a change that I could format the intrernal storage to cover up my previous installations? (hope you understand what I am trying to say)

R: Bricked ace keeps restarting (cannot go into recovery/CWM)
I understand what you mean, don't worry I think you should try the recovery procedure to unbrick the Ace as last thing you can do to use it back again. If EVRYTHING you can do (or you want to do) doesen't work send your device to service and hope that Samsung repair it for free because covered by warranty. Probably they will never know what you've done on it because memory is demaged. Some time ago I was too lazy to flash an original stock rom and I could not find the one I needed on the web so I sent my device to service with CWM on and no rom (formatted partition) and got it back with stock rom for free (was in warranty time). Best whishes

Ok was afraid that you wouldn't hehe Yea well I tried like 10 times already with Odin but the problem is when Odin is kind of finished and it's time for phone restarting, phone just gets into a bootloop again (or how is it called). So I don't know :/ Maybe I need a new boot file? I can only enter download mode but unable to enter any recoveries modes although I have CWM. Ok I hope so, will probaby take it to the service tomorrow. Btw, do you know any other recovery procedures besides Odin? And thanks a lot for replying to my problem

If you have download mode still try kies to see if it will flash stock again

Tried to use KIES but it says that the phone is unsupported :S Could the problem be that I'm using Win8? I've tried other roms already but I think that MeltingSnowman is right, it's damaged and I guess it's only fixable at service.

Nothing to do with win8 really and what method are you using on odin ? One package method or are you using all options
And try using a diff sd card as i had a damaged one that effected my flashing a while back
Sent from my GT-S5830

Oh ok I just thought that the compatibility could be the problem. I'm using one package method because I cannot find other single files :/. I've serched google already but all I ever found ware one packages. Sd card is fine. Do you maybe know where I could find single files? Please don't think that I am lazy but I really haven't found them

Your single files are in your rom you already have downloaded you just untick one package then apply them one by one which rom are you trying to flash ?

I've downloaded some stock 2.3.6 from SamFirmware but it's only 1 file (.tar )S5830DXKT7_S5830OLBKT3_S5830DXKT5_HOME.tar.md5.

It most likely to be a corrupt file, iv heard all sorts of stories from that site, find a stock rom on here thats flashable through odin and try your one package method again and also download the cooper ops file again, if you go to stickies at the top of this forum you will find what you need and hopefully get your ace to boot up again

1) Kies can't flash firmwares because you need an operative phone connected to PC and if you have anything different from stock rom on your mobile will obiviously say "Uncompatible Device", no matter wich SO you're running
2) A corrupted file from internet is almost impossible to get
3) A demaged bootloader would cause bootloops so if someone knows a way to load a new one to your device you'll be alright
4) One package or 100000 files can't cause a demage like that so the problem is sure not that

i9305, boot screen freeze, help :)

Hi everybody!
I've got a little issue with my phone Samsnung S3(gt-i9305), I post a thread here because I don't know what else to do.
The problem is that the phone is freezed on the samsung logo which "flash", as soon as I put on the battery.
- I hold the "power" button for a long while, nothing happens
-I try to launch RecoveryMode(up+home+power), nothing happens
-I try differents battery, nothing happens
My only hope:
I can launch the "download" mode(down+home+power), but if I let the battery in, it return to the flashing logo.
So I have to remove the battery(with the USB on my PC of course) and it work!!
So I'm in download mode, without battery.
But:
- I install my latest stock ROM, about 10 times, nothing happens (Firmware : I9305XXUEMKC_I9305XEFEMK1_XEF (4.3))
- I try to do the previous step with "nand erase all" and "T-flash", nothing happens
... WTF!
Is someone's got any idea of what's going on, and how can I do to save my phone?
I'm still searchiong on the forum, but any help will be so deeeeply appreciated
Thank very much for reading and helping

I'm scratching my head very strong, and I think it may be a power supply problem, maybe the power switch on and off so the phone cannot boot, and that's why it's work when I remove the battery.
Is anybody knows that kind of problem? Do you think I can open my phone and fix the problem?
Thanks

Did u flash any file before this happened? And ur first post. Firstly, the gt-i9305 is NOT the s4. And this is the gt-i9300 forum. Anything u flash here will just lead to ur phone being hard bricked.

Did u flash any file before this happened? And ur first post. Firstly, the gt-i9305 is NOT the s4. And this is the gt-i9300 forum. Anything u flash here will just lead to ur phone being hard bricked.

Hi, yes I know it's the S3, it was just a mistake sorry, I fixed it.
My phone was rootet and flashed with the last official stock rom samsung I9305XXUEMKC_I9305XEFEMK1_XEF (4.3).
Until now it worked very well!
I begin to prepare myself that my phone is definitly dead :'( but 've got a full copy of my internal Sd on my computer. I would like to get back my contacts, is anybody knows how to open that kind of file: contacts2.db-wal ?
I tried with SQlite bug it didn't work.
And Jumaqidi, I just saw that I missed the line of 9305 Q&A (was just above 9300), very sorry for that, what can I do, must I post another thread in the right section, or I wait until an admin move my thread?
Thanks
