Reboots when Usb connected

Flashed today my GT-I9000 to TO froyo I897UCJI6. I know i should not have done that now. But i really got pissed today at the gps of my phone and when i saw and update for galaxy s i just went for it, haven't checked the phone variant version. Thing is now my phone has no gps whatsoever it boots up fine but, sound only shows when i plug my headphones, accelerometer dont work correctly and so on....
So i though i`ll flash it back to stock. But the thing is once i connect the usb cable the phone just reboots and stays dead until the usb is disconnected.
I read the other threads but found no similar issues.
Here is a brief video of my problem

since i can`t post links
Anyone has any ideas how to get me back to stock?
Thanks!!
Damn i can`t even charge it!

Kinda weird indeed, try to remove the battery, wait a little, insert the battery and go to download mode (volume - / home / power) then start odin, put all files needed, and connect the usb, if it doesnt reboot hit start...

you got to enable adb debugging on your phone then open a command window and type: adb reboot download connect the usb to the phone and hit the enter key for the adb command before your phone fall asleep, then you are in download mode an can flash any rom with odin.
hope this helps, i flashed the same wrong firmware from the Vibrant.

Thanks Franklin, i tried the battery trick to no luck.
This is i cannot put my phone back to download mode because my "HOME" button is not mapped to do anything, seems like the "RETURN ARROW" button does the fuction when the system is loaded.
Any other ways to flash it back? Sd card or something?
Thanks for replies ;]

please try it my way it worked for me and i think it will work for you

I open the cmd navigate to c:\androidsdk\tools\ type in adb reboot download hit enter, it mounts daemon tools i plug in usb cable and 3 seconds later the phone goes blank and it stays unresponsive(no 3 key combination, not even the power button can turn it back on) i unplug the usb cable and the phone automaticaly shows the AT&T logo and starts up. The same happens when i plug my charger in!. Does that mean my SGS usb port is fried or something? Is there another way to flash my pnoe back to stock ROM?
I am so sorry i tried to make it better :[
Any clues?

no this is NOT a defective phone, its the result of the ROM and the 3 Button combo can´t work oh and you dont really mean deamon tools? and you musst plug the usb cable in the phone right before you hit enter or it can´t work!

I did that too. Like i said the phone turns it self off once the usb cable is attached.

dainiuxxx, this thread belongs in the Q&A section, not in development. Take a moment and read the "STOP, READ THIS BEFORE POSTING" thread at the top of both of these sections, it has clear guidelines for proper thread placement.

Sorry for that sirphukee.
Any help? Anyone?

Anyone that can help?

have you tried plugging it into another PC or Laptop?

Yup tried amothe laptop, reboot.
Wall charger, reboot.
So i`m kinda out of options?

yes, return it to the store, to get an exchange
a normal working SGS does not reboot when plugged into any USB port/charger
it's Shorted (damaged) for some reason

ok, return sounds good to me, but what will i have to say when they`ll switch on the phone and see the AT&T logo?
I`m in UK and my network is Orange UK.
Will they accept it back with no problems, i kinda doubt that....

uhh... you are in quite a pickle ...
try to remove the evidence, intentionally use a Update.zip ROM flash to kill the flash
or flash it to stock if you find a good ROM via Update.zip
use the WiFi to download the Update.zip ROM flash to the root of the internal SD to flash it.
ROM Manager can get the same results, you can WiFi install it from Market

Installed ROM manager from market, but seems it needs the phone rooted, right?
And rooting can be done only via usb cable, right?
Where do i find a Update.zip ROM via Wifi? and what are the procedures when i do find it?

OK,
so obviously the question now is HOW DO I F...k up my phone completely so no one could see what was done to it. When i`ll take it back to the shop.

you can ROOT the phone within the phone itself
by downloading Ryzaa One click lag fix from the market
instead of installing the lag fix, select the option to ROOT the phone

Same issue here. Amazing how easy it is to mess this phone up when you are really stupid. Oh well....
Tried the one click lag fix to root it, but cannot find a way to get into download or recovery mode. Tried every button combo I have seen suggested, but either gets stuck in a loop on the AT&T screen or just boots into the OS.
At the moment I feel my only option if we cannot find a way to get into download mode is to format the internal SD card and send it back to o2 (my provider), tell them it fried when Kies tried to do an update, cross my fingers and hope they send me a new one.

sgh-t599 recovery / restore

HI XDA
I got this sgh-t599 tmobile phone yesterday. (didn't realize it was rooted) messed around/did factory reset without backup.
now im stuck in CWM recovery 6.0.3.6, Ive spent several hours readind and trying to fix this with no luck.
I tried using adb, kies etc. none can detect device. device drivers are installed(tried 'have disk'), it shows Samsung under device manager.
I can device list in adb and shows the numbers and "recovery" but when i try to use commands it says "waiting for device" or something.
from what i read, i need unsecure boot to restore firmware. where can i get this and how do i do it pls.
i have no mount usb option in cwm, when i try to recover/update from cwm it says aborted. in adb im able to reboot the phone with the commands but always reboots to cwm recovery or waiting for device. any help pls. i may have access to another rooted t599 if i am able to backup and recover it to this phone?:crying:
do you think local phone repair shop can fix this back to stock or rooted and for how much?

You must have format system or something. A factory reset wipes cache and data, nothing else. There should be a homebrew odin-file somewhere in these t599 threads.

phone was rooted and had superuser etc on it. I didn't know about rooting, I did factory reset from the main menu which im pretty sure is what caused this. before that I was able to look through its apps where I saw the superuser,terninal and others, once factory reset it rebooted to cwm recovery and stuck there. there was no backup or side sdcard. only realized it was rooted after saw the cwm and stuck
odin doesnt detect phone either, downloaded/installed universal drivers still no go.
main issue is not being to able enable usb debug/download while still in cwm
repair shop says $30, about to run there

i caused my friends sgh-t599 to do that
So... This might be late.... But I'm going to postthis for others .... So I was looking for ever for a way to unbrick his phone... Then hope Finley came .. After I read hard enough .. And came across a post for a stock pre-rooted tar file to be flashed with Odin...

[Q] The computer does not see the phone

Hey there! I am from Russia. It is a pity that I look a donkey, but I did not heed a warning sign of that freedom flex 4.4.2 does not work. Now I have a brick that the computer does not see. I read the entire thread, but did not find a clue how to be me! Help me please:! I wanted to return to 4.2.2. What you need to do to my computer to see D 955?:crying:

Hi, I did have this issue after imstalling TWRP and installing recovery. After I spend hours to make a connect to the phone. Pressing and holding buttons while plugging in usb and .... Nothing I could not get a connect. And so long I cannot connect I can not do anything. Maybe LG is able or they can connect physical. Good luck but it seems the device is bricked. I gave mine back to the provider where I bought and got a new one without paying. I said I did an OTA and after it was like this . Otherwise open RMA

No chance. You need KK rom zip on your memory. Boot to recovery (hold vol up plus power and when LG logo comes up release volume button but hold power) and flash KK zip if you have got it in your sd memory. I cant make my Flex usb fixed too.. Everytime when I try to flash JB it wont overwrite custom recovery so I can go back to KK. Waiting for 4.2.2 zip now with downgrade option.

Help!! Please!! Sprint LG G FLex Boot Loop

Hello,
to explain my situation, I purchased a sprint LG G Flex from CL with the intention of using it on Simple Mobile. I found a post on XDA where and individual created a custom ROM called "attsprint" that enabled this. I Rooted the phone without issue and verified it, next I installed FreedomFlex with the intention of installing a TWRP and then proceeding to flash the custom rom. The recovery was flashed to the phone and I verified then pressed Reboot in TWRP and the phone "Attempted" to restart but hung at the LG screen.
Well...I tried for a while to do the Hard Reset with the Vol down and power to no avail and got frustrated and started pressing buttons and found if I do the Vol up and power CWM came up, and If I do Vol up and Power while plugged to my PC a download screen which shows a phone with dots that connects to a PC and never goes past that screen.
So I attemped to ADB to it and sideload a stock rom but my ADB does not recognize the phone. I connected an OTG cable to the phone and flashed a stock ROM through USB and it said success but still will not reboot.
I can not seem to get anywhere on this phone.....I have dealt with lots of phones, PCs, tablets, Video Game consoles and been able to recover them all but this one is really frustrating me.
If someone else has any insight on this please help!

I tried to hard reset and nothing, and in the other forum say the phone is Brick, please, I need help

If you can get into download mode, you should be able to revive the phone...even if there is no pop up when you connect to PC, look under device manager and see if you a LG device under serial ports..if yes, then you can flash the tot file using LG flash tool
