Hello, I have a Rooted S3 MINI 4.1.2. I went into CWM Today to clear my cache, after that I tried to make a backup but it failed at /data so then I just went out and Rebooted the system. When my phone turned got to my lock screen, it froze. It was like that for 30 minutes so I just took the battery out and put it back in. Now when I try to turn my phone on nothing happens. Can't get into Download mode either. Anyone got any suggestions? Is my phone bricked or what?
If you can not enter in download mode it's a serius problem... I'll try to find any solutions.

Any News?
I found these solutions for LG device, maybe they work for Samsung

Italian tutorial, but it's not hard understand the meaning...
Do you try this to enter in Download Mode ?
Make Sure You Are In Download Mode On Your Phone
If having trouble getting into dl mode try this>> take out the battery and leave it out. Plug the phone into the micro usb cable. Plug the USB end into your comp. Hold volume rockers down(either both or vol "-") and reinsert the battery

Hmm. in this case, i think you have to buy a custom usb cable to force phone to get back in download mode. i saw ebay have those cables for cheap price or you can make a custom usb cable your self. xda have a thread how to do that

Hello Guys,
I was flashing my SI, two weeks ago and it got frozen, so I had to take my battery out. After that, my phone doesn't turn on, I've tried everything, even USB jig. But It's dead still.
I also tried the USB jig into my Galaxy SII and into my friend's Galaxy SI, It worked perfectly. (just to make sure that the problem is in my phone)
Is there something else that I could try to do?
Thank you, Lucas.
does your phone boots into download mode or recovery??

No, It doesn't boot into download mode. That's why I bought an USB jig and even using an usb jig it does not boot into download mode.
Thank you.

I've tried put into download mode, so many times and didn't work. That's why I bought an USB jig, even plugging the usb jig it doesn't boot into download mode :/
I have done flashing into my Galaxy SII and twice into my galaxy SI. But, the last time, which was the third time, I did something wrong. (By the way, I was flashing to official room)
Try removing the battery, press the 3 button combo and put the battery back in while you're holding the buttons (you will need some help I guess). Try the same with the JIG.
Edit/ What exactly went wrong?
Okay, I'll try. Tell you if it worked later. Need get some charge.
Thanks a lot.
I've tried and it didn't work.
Thanks for your help.

Your welcome!
Did you update the bootloader while flashing? Actually it's really hard to brick an SGS completely... Do you remember what exactly you did when you flashed the phone?
The last chance would be JTAG (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7edUXE7jLg).
Regards!
What happens when u try to recharge. Does the battery icon show?
try to recharge the phone for an hour.then pull the battery, leave it out for an hour. Put it back and try download mode. Last chance, before jtag,i think
Well, while I was flashing with odin I probably used an incorrect room and it got frozen. I don't know why I took the battery out.. I could just wait and put it to flash again.
Anyway I watched the video and I gave up. I don't have those stuffs and I won't spend money with a £120 phone.
Thanks once more. I'm really thankful.
Nope, whatever I do my phone doesn't show anything. I did charge my battery for few hours and the phone got hot (normally, as all phones does while charging) and I tried put into download mode and didn't work.
Thank you, Lucas.
may be..there is only one way..giving ur fone in samsung..
obviously u will have to lose few bucks from ur pocket..

Okay i had adb and put the phone into download mode via adb, fixed it, lol
If your phone is still functional you can enter download mode by using a terminal emulator and type reboot download or via ADB.

I got my phone into download using adb, thanks
You can do this with busy box scripts i think.

i hope so...
try and post the result..
I've read a bunch of descriptions on the vulcan-deth-gripp to get into recovery/download.
And had my fair share of failures.. What NORMALY works for me, (my $.02)
1: Make certain that it's NOT pluged in
2: Make certain it's OFF (unplugg battery if necesary)
3: Push vol-down (for download) + home
4: Press power,
5: Release power (and keep the others pressed) once you get a short flash in the samsung logo (normaly 1-2 seconds)
Viola..
If you keep power pressed, it will trigger another reset sequence...
/PS

I have Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, and cannot enter download mode using the standard method. (Power + Volume)
Is anyone willing to walk me through gettinig my device into download mode using adb? I am not a newbie, but it's been years since I've worked with adb and I have forgotten most of it.
Thanks
help. my mini wont power on. but if i remove the battery and put it back again it automatically turn on for about 3 secs then shut down. if i enter the download mode by pressing the keys while the battery is out then put back again, the same thin happens. it enter the download mode but after 3 secs it turn offs. it cant be detected in odin and in my pc. it will be detected for a while as long as the phone is on but after 3 secs the phone shut downs and its not detected anymore. if i plugged the charger nothing happens. the battery icon doesnt appear.
