MY Phone Condition:
My phone was previously install with voodoo rom and use clockwork recovery to restore to my stock rom that i backup and it crash half way.
My phone was hardware lock this mean no matter how i press the volume and power button , i will never get into download mode. non of the method posted work !
My phone cannot use "adb reboot download" because there is no OS and it was stuck in the recovery loop.
It does not have clockwork recovery because i formatted my internal sdcard
If i do have clockwork recovery and i use restore image or install new from zip , i still stuck in the recovery mode after reboot several times.
My phone does not mount to internal sdcard because i don't even know what i did on this part.
I believe i screw up my partition of the phone.
DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
You need the Samsung USB driver and you can get it from Here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728929
First Part
1. Download update.zip from the link below. This was post by another member.
The post is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=804305
2. Place the update.zip in tools folder so you can push it into your phone by using adb command
3. Plug usb into the phone and your phone should be on the Android system recovery <2e>
4. Use your volume button to select reinstall package, don't press power button yet.
5. constant "adb push update.zip /sdcard" from computer , you will get permission denied.
6. While you are constantly pushing the adb command from computer. press the power button on the phone so it install update.zip from sdcard.
7. This is the part where it force adb push into sdcard without permission
8. once the update.zip install completed. unplug the usb cable from the phone and take the battery out.
9. put the battery back to the phone then press on both volume button.
10. While holding both volume button , plug in your usb cable and it will boot to download screen.
If you need use Odin to flash your phone to original stock rom. Go to the Second Part
Second Part:
If you get black screen with only 4 light on the bottom after flashing from Odin.
Follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728698
There should be T959-PDA.tar,T959-CSC.tar and T959-Phone.tar within the package.
Check "Re-Partition" , "Auto Reboot" and "F.Reset Time" check box. Use the PIT 0512 version. Use "PDA", "PHONE" and "CSC" from the link above.
After flashing with Odin, you will loose the download mode. repeat the first part and you are good to go.
Here is the link on rooting the phone

my hardware lock mean cannot use the button method to get into download mode and using adb reboot download does not help too.
Im pretty sure hardware lock does not mean no recovery. Just no button download mode

You figure it out after all. I already stated the condition of my phone ! My phone was pretty bricked at that point. There is way for me to push any files into the phone because i don't have permission and my phone will not go to download mode by using the volume button. It just stuck at recovery mode.
There are guide out there teach you to use "adb push download". This method only work if you are in your phone and you turn on debug mode. My phone crash at the clockwork recovery bootloader. Then i formated my internal sdcard that hold the clockwork. next i push a stock update.zip that does not have su and busybox so i lost the capability to push anything into the phone.
no download mode , no permission, no sdcard --> You tell me how can i use the method that post few week ago ?

unfortunately, i was one of those careless people to brick my phone via Voodoo.
Firstly, i tried to "FLASH" the disable_voodoo zip file via Clockwork, i put it in root, and never created any folders. i knew i had to disable voodoo before flashing but my steps were wrong.
sadly enough, my phone was also HW locked, so i got it exchanged. now im not using voodoo YET and i my new vibrant can handle OC and has the recovery/download mode via buttons.

i use shell to create the file that disable voodoo. after disable voodoo , i was able to do restore and install new rom unfortunately after restore or install new rom , it still reboot into recovery.
I also forgot to disable voodoo, and this was before there were fix instructions posted. So i basically effed up my phone to the point of being stuck in the samsung recovery loop, no hardware download mode, no clockwork recovery, no update.zp, no adb download.
I really thought I had completely bricked my phone, I tried this just out of desperation and what do you know, push update.zip over and over and click and it goes through, which allowed me to get into download mode.

nice , you just have to re-root and install the new rom again , if it brick again , just use this method and you are good again.many of us forgot to disable the voodoo before we restore or install new rom and this crashes the phone.
Need some help really bad
Ok so I have a similar situation as you did (OP), only mine is a bit worse... In my irrational "in the moment" fear of the situation, I used adb reboot recovery to get into recovery mode (HW locked phone) and I did the option that deletes all the **** on the phone and restores the phone to its original format (I think it reinstalled the OS or something, because it looks brand new). So now, whenever I boot up, it does the annoying black screen with the 4 glowing buttons thing for a while, and then eventually the OS actually shows up on the screen. Then it does "scanning media" thing over and over again, but thats not the main problem. I figured, hey this isnt so bad atleast I found your thread and would be able to use your method to help restore my phone... the problem is that somehow my "settings" button is totally gone from the app menu, and I cant get it into debug mode, so I cant use either adb or your method or ANYTHING!! My phone is practically bricked as I cant do anything because its constantly laggy and turns back to the black screen thing, and then when it is showing the homescreen I cant do **** because even swiping to another screen takes like 5 minutes to do cause its so laggy. So basically I ****ed up, and I really need some help.. Im kinda a noob at this whole thing and im really outa options as far as I can tell.. does anyone know what I can do to repair my phone? Thanks!
Hi all, just recently purchased Galaxy Tab Sprint from ebay.
I have tried to flash the device to european and now have it stuck at the Samsung screen. When I go into recovery mode I get errors referring to the sd card not being able to mount. Is anyone able to refer me to Sprint rom? or able to help me get the tab up and running.
Many Thanks
is this an internal or external sd card.. if external can you tell what class it is?
the error that I get is E: cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(no such file or directory)
E:install_application_for customer:cant mount data
your storage not prepared yet yet please use UI menu.
Is there a recommend flash and pit file that will sort out the above?
Many Thanks
Does this mean that I need to send the phone back to samsung or a repair centre.
Can anyone help on this one?

i think you flashed an incomplete firmware... could you tell me what file/s you flashed? (.tar file contents also)..
I tried the the gt_p1000_mr.pt
and then tried the roto-jme-full-v4.tar.
Any help is really appreciated
Many Thanks
For how long was it stuck at logo? When I upgraded mine, the 1st boot up takes long time to boot. It took me about 2 to 3 minutes. I waited patiently and it loads into wizard settings. After that everything is ok. 2nd boot is very fast.
My guess is 1st boot is always very slow and it gives an impression that it is stuck maybe.

2. Don't think I had USB Debugging on prior to this situation
3. Didn't flash a rom (dont even know how)
4. don't have clockworkmod
I installed the root required app LCD density changer by beansoft... tried permanently changing my lcd density (resolution) to 200, looked back at phone several minutes later and it was stuck on the at&t logo. I didn't do a backup like they said, in case anything goes wrong (didn't expect anything to go wrong.........). Now, everytime I try to boot my phone, i get stuck at the At&t logo screen (NOT infinite loop... just frozen logo). I have tried factory reset multiple times... but ofcourse that didn't work because that doesn't affect system preferences ( like the density/resolution).
Beansoft suggests this to fix the issue... but i can't get it to work

How can i get that file onto my phone's memory? My phone wont even turn on. I tried putting it on the microsd card, but the file doesnt show up in recovery.
Someone please help me... I just want my phone working again... By whatever means... Flashing a new rom, the update.zip method by beansoft... idk ... just want it working...

Well looks like you're kinda screwed since you don't have clockwork installed, I'm not sure if you can install a new ROM... but have you tried EVERYTHING in android recovery?
If you don't know how to get to recovery... it's Hold down volume key + 3d + power, until it vibrates then use arrow keys to move around and 3d to select if you dont have clockwork...

Do you havet the emergency mode like most LG smartphones?Here is how you check pull out the battery and the plug it in(so your phone turns off) and then hold down the volume up +voulume down and power button if it worked you should see a yellow screen and a "Emergency mode!!" title.Then google for a kdz update tool and a kdz firmware for YOUR phone.You will also need the LG mobile united drivers.If you are on windows go to control panel and disable the lg modem.Then connect your phone(in emergency mode) to the computer open the update tool then click on select KDZ and navigate to your KDZ then in phone mode select emergency_something iys the only one.Than click flash KDZ and after about 5min your phone should reboot and it wilk work.Its importiant to note that you will lose everything on your phones memory its like you flash a rom you start out fresh you also loose root.Good luck!

You don't have clockwork then.That is your stock recovery.I had this problem too.I flashed the wrong recovery and i got stuck on the LG logo.I fixed it using fastboot flasher idk is it the same combination but on my phone it is volume up+call+power button.Uf it is correct you should see a sign saying fastboot mode udc_start or something like that then use the fastboot flasher to flash a recovery image for your phone.After the flash is complete reboot your phone but first do a NORMAL boot so you can see if the problem is solved.If it worked then you can safely boot into recovery.

Thank you for your support guys, but as it was to difficult, I just got a new one from at&t
I am in similar situation but I am rooted AND I have CWM on my phone. I can boot into recovery just fine and install from sd card and all that jazz but when I try to boot normally I don't get past the LG logo. It just hangs there forever. Do I just have to get a flashable ROM onto the SD card and boot into recovery and flash??
I have already tried wiping data, cache and dalvik to no avail.
Any suggestions??

I rooted phone, everything fine. I flashed CWM, everything fine. When I rebooted system from CWM then phone booted but hung at the LG logo. Now only thing I can do is boot into recovery or boot to the LG logo for hours... Don't even know how this could have happened as I haven't flashed anything, just root and CWM...
My phone (I9001, S +) does not work, so it's basically a brick. I have on my phone CWM Touch Recovery to recover system, no operating system and a big problem. Passing over the fact that I can't put a flashable zip on the phone since the PC does not see the phone I have a problem with the recovery software . All phone folders can not be seen or mounted, except for the external memory card . I think if I will put a new flashable recovery soft on this and flash it , the new one can work properly and after i can install every OS ( I didn't mention that i've tried to install RevengeV1.zip and it doesn't work ) . Is that a good way or should I do something different?
PS: I did not do this because currently I have not a microSD card reader till tomorrow, so I thought to ask you guys because you have the experience and maybe the studies
And if it helps with something ( with some fun ) my mom will kill me for this ( "You lil' technology master" ) [just kiddin']

My phone (I9001, S +) does not work, so it's basically a brick. I have on my phone CWM Touch Recovery to recover system, no operating system and a big problem. Passing over the fact that I can't put a flashable zip on the phone since the PC does not see the phone I have a problem with the recovery software . All phone folders can not be seen or mounted, except for the external memory card . I think if I will put a new flashable recovery soft on this and flash it , the new one can work properly and after i can install every OS ( I didn't mention that i've tried to install RevengeV1.zip and it doesn't work ) .

Up , anyone have an opinion or something ?
what cwm recovery exactly did you use?
maybe try to flash cwm5.5.0.4. try to mount usb-storage. then you should be able to copy files from pc.
and you can try it with ext.sd wit recovery with file manager
another posssibility would be over adb
further try to flash broodrom via odin
you can also try to install stockrom
sorry if i said things you already mentione.
another question: is your phone bricked due brick bug?

I use ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.2.7
Actually i'm not sure what do you mean with bricked due brick bug .. :-? My problem is with the recovery that it doesn't recognize files/folders from my phone (exemple: E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log , so i can't make something with it , it is with sdcard , system , all except external SD )
I was thinking at two methods : 1. flash from external sd card a new recovery software , maybe it will work properly and see my phone and after install any OS or 2. Install directly a new OS , recommended from you
And i have to say again , my phone doesn't have any OS because i remove the last one (with backup , but can't see it because it's on sdcard ) and the new one can't be installed , on sdcard too
I will try your suggestions now and post/edit
Yes the best way is to flash via Odin.....

So .. when it's in recovery i plug it in usb , odin see it , press start with a stock rom ( Anyway , you can give me a link of a stock rom for Romania , maybe i choosed a wrong-one ) and Odin failed . Any suggestion now?

Put out sdcard then put in! than make full format of sdcard. Remember all your files on sdcard will be deleted then make a backup..
