[Q][I9000]Bootloop, Home button is broken, How to flash new ROM?

Hello,
I have I rare problem. I tried to flash a new ROM and it failed, so now the phone is stuck on the boot image. Ok, usualy I would have solved this with CMW 3 button recovery combination, but my phones Home button is broken so I cannot acces it, but I made the USB Jig and can acces download mode.
My question is how do I unbrick my phone?
What I tried: Using SDK tools to reboot the phone in recovery with ADB, no succes. Sdk doesnt see my device.
Something called Fastboot, but from what I read Samsung doesn't have such a feature for the phone to enable.
Thank you.

I had the same problem a couple of time ago, but all 3 buttons were defect (see my signature ).
What I always did:
when you can get in download mode then restock via odin and phone will boot again.
Here is slappys rescue kit what i always use when i have to restock.
Unzip it and flash the Rom via Odin. There is also a txt file with a guide included.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29114573&postcount=2
With this flashed rom you will have in the power down menue the funktion: back to recovery or back to download. So first time go back to download mode or use usb jig again and then flash the included root kernel.
Then flash the rom of your choice.
If you would go to jelly bean i would recommend to use Mackays 1.3.0. first. Because you have to flash JB twice or even 3 times and after the first flash of this Mackay it goes automatically back in recovery mode.
Link to older Mackay Roms:
http://www.xdafileserver.nl/index.php?dir=Samsung/Galaxy+S/MackayROM/JB41/old
After flashing this you could go to google play and download an app for softkeys for example softkeys for root users.
After that and if you want or like you could flash also a JB rom with included virtual softkeys, like for example SLIM. You have to enable the navigation bar in settings but after that you can use your phone quite normal.
Hope this helps and wish you a good success!

How long should it last to restock with odin?I'm waiting for about 30m and nothing. Still says Do not turn of target! No Loading bar n phone or Odin showing any progress. What is wrong?

Solved it. I was using the USB port in front of the Desktop unit and i guess it doesn't have enough voltage. Worked when i switched to the back USB port. Thanks a lot man!! You saved my phone !

[Q] I9001 recovery problem

Hello,
My friend gave me a phone to wipe.
The problem is:
The Pattern is locked due to many attempts. (To many attempts for pattern)
He did try to flash CWM to it but now recovery is not working at all.
At this point he gave the phone to me.
I flashed fresh XEN firmware to the I9001 and the stock recovery is showing up again. But it still isn't working. It says in the bottom of the screen >>> status = 0 <<<
I can scroll through the recovery but even the reboot phone option doesnt work.
How can I perform an full wipe so that the phone doesn't ask for email/password?
I tried SPH-D710.ODIN_WIPE_CACHE_DATA.exe but that does nothing.

And then nothing, After 60 minutes it still hangs here.
Does anybody have some idead how i can wipe it via Odin or ADB?

Please, tell me what XEN firmware is, I've never read it somewhere (in connection to android)?!
Did you find out your I9001 is a special hardware release?
Did you try to flash a custom recovery like ClockWorkMode (CWM) Recovery or TWRP?
Do you want to keep this phone stock?
Greetings

[Q] Help with flashing back to stock s5 at&t kitkak 4.4

I need some help, I installed a rooted lollipop 5.0 because my current 4.4 was buggy. Unfortunately lollipop 5.0 was even worse. Now I am trying to flash back to stock using odin, but I can't find kitkat 4.4 only 4.2 and I tried flashing to that and I keep receiving Auth- fail. So now my phone is soft bricked. I can only access download window and the recovery. I tried everything I cant get back to 4.4 nor lollipop 5.0 so please advice what to do. I I can get a download for kitkat 4.4 I would try flashing that maybe that will work. I have a at&t galaxy s5.

If you are still on any 4.4. firmware ( 4.4.2 or 4.4.4), you should be able to flash the full 4.4.2 or 4.4. You will need to put the ap (pda), phone and csc. this will erase all of your data, but if you never took the 5.0 ota,you should be able to get to 4.4.x then root make sure you use odin and a good cable (not USB 3.0)

I will try to a different cable (ive been using the 3.0 cable) Ive tried so many downloads of the 4.4.2 firmware and on all of the odin fails. I kept getting odin Auth failed. I tired using the csc,ap,cp all at once and separately but the only to successfully flash was cp modem. Would the 3.0 cable really make that big of a difference to not flash 3.0?

If you took the OTA or sideloaded the OTA you _will not_ be able to downgrade from 5.0, if you did it through the flashfire method which does not upgrade the bootloader it is possible, but from what i can see, you sideloaded the ota zip which means you can't. Otherwise, the unbrick guide in the general section should work fine, and if not that's a perfect place to ask for help.

So when i installed the zip through recovery that means I side loaded the ota zip? So what are my options? I tried to load the zip again but now it wont load, the phones just reboots. What can I do?
http://www.droidviews.com/install-rooted-lollipop-on-att-galaxy-s5-sm-g900a/ this is where in installed the 5.0 from. I guess it is ota :/

Which bootloader version are you on and what firmware are you flashing?
For example:
If your on N950FXXU"6"DSF6 your on bootloader version 6 so I would flash any N950FXXU"6".... firmware, you can't flash any firmware below that, so no ver 5 or below
(N950FXXU"5"..... not going to flash). Same goes for 5 , 4 , 3, and 2 bootloaders can't downgrade to lower version!
If you're on multi-CSC OXM (csc N950F"OXM"U6DSF6) use any with the OXM in the firmware name.
Use the home-CSC to keep data intacted!
Or
Use the CSC file to erase data and go back to stock.
If you are coming from a carrier csc phone like OVF to OXM you have to use the CSC file.
Try another usb cable and/or usb port.
Please give more information:
What firmware you are on?
What CSC are you on?
What firmware you tried to flash?
Look at the Download mode screen for Bootloader version and CSC.
edit....
Look for the line:
RP SWVER B: 6 K: 1 S: 1 (the B: 6 is your bootloader version).

You can not get into download mode with power+bixby+vol-down at all?
Can you get into recovery mode?
If you can try doing a factory reset or selecting the option to boot into download mode.
Try using Samsung smart switch on pc to do a factory recovery.
Or visit a Samsung repair store.

You are probably better off asking for help in the thread of the rom you tried to flash (try seaching on the thread for the same problem as yours first), or creating your own thread to ask for help.

I accidentaly locked bootloader with TWRP installed. NEED HELP!

Hello guys. I ruined my phone pretty bad.
It's a long story, but i had android 8 on my note 8 rooted with magisk. I decided to update, so i used smart swich to do it (first mistake).
The software updated and got stuck to samsung logo.
After i flashed TWRP and installed magisk again, the phone did start, i did setup things etc.
Then it came the 2nd big mistake. I accidentally locked OEM with TWRP intalled (i forgot i didnt fully clean my phone from unwanted software before doing that).
Then my phone was looping because of FRP protection.
In the download mode it was telling me the Current binary was "custom".
I downloaded lastest rom from UDPATO and tried to flash the new fresh untouched ROM.
But i got an error SW REV. CHECK FAIL(BOOTLOADER) DEVICE: 12, BINARY 5. After that, the CURRENT BINARY went to "Samsung Official" and instead of FRP protection bootloop i got stuck with the "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use Emergency recovery function in Smart Switch PC software." message.
I know what that means, I have a newer bootlaoder then the one i try to install, but did not find a post on this entire internet about bootloader version 12 on note 8!
I know I was dumb by locking the bootloader with twrp install in the first place, but there is any way to make it possible to flash the ROM via Odin?
I can't find a binary with version 12 of bootloader.
I can acces download mode, but anything else I do ends with the error: "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use Emergency recovery function in Smart Switch PC software."
This is the log from Odin.

Use samfirm.exe or frija to download the latest firmware for your phone (Both can be found in xda search).
The firmware will be official but knox will ALWAYS be tripped (0x1) meaning no more Samsung Pay and other knox related apps. No going back period!
As you noticed once on bootloader version 12 ("C") it won't accept any bootloader versions lower then 12. No going back to 11 or 10 or 9 or ..... No downgrading!

You guys just saved my day! Thanks, didnt knew about samfirm, or frija. Both are great tools.
Thank GOD for this community, this is the reason I AM NEVER GONNA HAVE ANOTHER IPHONE AGAIN.
I owned only 1, to see how it is, between androids.
Thank you guys again, Odin is doing his job on the background.
Great response time too!
