[Solved] Galaxy death after Froyo Flash

Hi to all,
i used this way to enter the download modus http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765703
it was the first time i could enter this modus. Then i tried to flash JPC firmware with odin. Something went wrong. Now my phone boots up (the animated "S" with sound), vibrate and the screen went black.
The touch controls working fine but the screen is still black and the phone vibrates sometimes.
Unfortunally i reach not the download or recovery modus.
What can i do, please help!
kind regards
srkonus

you have to get into the download mode
if you can not get into the download mode
then you are stuck
you can try to be lucky and see if you can reboot it into the ADB reboot download

Thanks for your answer, how made this with the adb reboot download? My Windows 7 does not see the phone.

I get this: error: device not found

You should get in to download mode because the s is after the download mode.
I never see the s when trying to get into download

That is my problem, i get into the download modus not yesterday, and today only one time.
I try this:
battery out and in, center button, vol up and power -> nothing
battery out and in, center button, vol down up and power -> nothing
battery out and in, vol down up, center button and power -> nothing
battery out and in, vol down down, center button and power -> nothing
I do not know how i went into the download mode nearly one hour before.
ADB and kies find not the phone :-(

1) Pull out battery.
2) Reinsert battery.
3) Press VOL DOWN - HOME - POWER and keep the 3 buttons pressed until you'll see a yellow image on the phone. You are in download mode!

If your Phone has no Problem with the 3-Button-Combo:
- Turn off your Phone
- Hold VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons
- While holding VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons press POWER Button until you reach Download-Mode
- Release all Buttons
Otherwise the only solution is to bring it back to Samsung. ;-)

How was the condition of your battery before you got into trouble. You think you have enough power? If not, let your phone rest for a while and try it again later. Make sure that when you get into download mode you have odin ready so you can flash new firmware immediately .

Nothing,
the only thing i can see is the white samsung galaxy letters, after that the phone reboots.

- Turn off your Phone
- Hold VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons
- While holding VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons press POWER Button until Display powers on then release only Power Button
- Hold VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons until you reach Download Mode
Could be a little tricky to get into download mode. ;-)

Yeah,
back to samsung...nice joke. I do not beliefe, that samsung will change the phone. It was rooted and i installed the modclock recovery before to backup the ROM.
Maybe the device was really warm from charging - is this the key?

i think your Flash was ok. You´ve only forgotten to do a Data Wipe / Factory Reset from Recovery.
Have a look at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769400
AFTER FLASHING TO JPC ITS NECESSARY TO DO A DATA/FACTORY RESET FROM RECOVERY (Volume up + Home + Power).
OTHERWISE YOUR PHONE WILL DO MYSTERIOUS THINGS!!!

Reconsider the advice of Arey. To go into download mode can be really tricky sometimes.

Maybe ur battery is drained get some one else to charge it for u

The battery is full

Not download mode but rather recovery. VOL UP + HOME + POWER hold till Samsung white writing appears then release.

Thats the thing with the Galaxy,u have made it to download mode cpl o times before and u think u know how to do it right.But read carefully!!:
#1. PULL out the battery for a minute!Not 1sec,or 2...a minute!!
#2. Put it back in again,and putt the case back.
#3. Press the home-button,the big square thing at the bottom.hold it down,hold down volume-down button on the side,now press power button on oposite side of volumebutton.
#4 Make really sure u have all 3 buttons pressed at the same time.Wait for download mode

in recovery try:
wipe data/factory reset
this will wipe your data so if you can get it working some other way and/or dont want to loose your data dont do it

You're more lucky, you can easly flash it correctly trough odin and/or cwm/recovery.
Somtimes you'll need a adb trick getting into downloadmode if it aint working with connecting it to ODIN without kies, having a CMD open typing from the folder "adb reboot recovery" en hit enter/return when the the COM port is flashing yellow in ODIN.

What stage of flashing from Odin did this happen? It should go into download mode. Try disconnecting power and battery and waiting a few minutes. If you cant do that, return the phone. If they wont replace the phone, there is a way of forcing the phone into download mode using the following
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551
If you do get to download mode, reflash to a stock Eclair following the instructions carefully

[Q] Download/Recovery mode not working !! Help !! :(

My phone is not going in either of the download / recovery mode. I tried many times. Both 'Vol up + home + power' and 'Vol down + home + power'. But the phone runs in infinite boot loop until i release the power button, after which it starts normally.
May be i should try this . But as per what i found in google search is that the 3 button issue was only in 2.1(Eclair). And mine is already on 2.2 (Froyo) which i updated officially through kies. So has it been disabled intentionally or the bootloader is buggy version which i need to update using this guide ??

try to hold the power button for 4 seconds exactly. Release it just when the logo screen disappears. Sometimes if I hold it too long, it doesn;t work.
Also, if your phone is working, try an app like QuickBoot that will take you into those modes automatically.

For some people have problems getting in to download mode, try volume down home and power it worked for me.

Download mode is Volume down not up .

I tried it, its not working. I release the power button exactly when the boot logo disappears. Then the phone boots again (boot logo is displayed again) and phone starts normally.
Also app like QuickBoot is not much helpful as i'm thinking of flashing through ODIN and i need both the modes working before starting the flash procedure !!

Yeah i have tried factory reset. And i dont want to use the USB jig just now. USB jig is for emergency i suppose and u can only go into download mode and not recovery mode. I want download mode and recovery mode running normally. My question is that, i it possible that these two modes are disabled as mine is 3 UK branded phone ?? Should I try this ??

1. Power off device (pull batt)
2. Press and hold Vol+ button
3. Press and hold Power button
4. Release Power as soon as the big Samsung Galaxy S logo appears
5. Release Vol+ as soon as the recovery menu appears
This always works. Did you install Faemod?
If you are getting into Ramdump Mode you must be holding the Home button too...
For all this: please use the Q&A thread or CWM recovery thread for questions. Do not open new topics, they pollute the forums. And also definitely read the wiki, this is all explained in there...

That all depends on whether you want to continue "the legal way" or fix it yourself using stuff you find here. When a Kies upgrade fails I would go to the reseller where you bought the device to get it fixed. If you really want to do it yourself for whatever reason, find yourself a new ROM that belongs to your device (what was you ROM version before you started the upgrade?) and install it through ODIN. That will fix it...

All right.
It all started when I was going to download new firmware via Kies. Got stuck at 3%, tried recovering firmware through kies, still stuck at 3%. Tried another computer with recovery code. Didn't work at all. Called Samsung support, they showed me the forced recovery but it still doesn't work. When I do the [Vol+]+[Power]+[Home] (which is what Samsung support told me) it shows "RAMDUMP MODE,Cause:Force Upload". When I do the [Vol+]+[Power]-combo it goes into the [Phone--Exclamation Mark--Computer]-sing (Does that sign have a name? Like BSOD or RROD?).
So now I'm at the same crossroad as the last guy.
No matter what button-combinations I use I end up stuck (One time, don't know what buttons I pressed. It showed the Android-bot with the text "Downloading... Don't turn off target" (or "Don't unplug device" don't remember). I think it must be because it was in the middle of a firmware upgrade when all of this started).
So my question is what do I do now?
I can't go the legal way because I can't find my receipt and the store say "Without a receipt we can't do nothing".
I can't go directly to Samsung support because they say "Oh we're not quite sure, go to the store".
I don't know if I can install a new ROM through Odin since I don't know what ROM I had before the firmware upgrade.
(I'm a noob, I'm the kind of guy who, as long as it works, don't know what ROM I have installed).
Anyhow, if anyone out there have any idea what I should do I'd be very thankful.
I've already clicked the thank you-button on all the helpful posts in this thread.

Bump
Please forgive me.
Bumping this thread since the life of my phone is at stake.

[Q] Soft Brick with broken VOL+ button

Hi there. I've got a problem. I have just formatted in CWM my sdcard(internal) and some others options which were there.
And now I am stuck onto Samsung Logo. The problem is that i would flash new Jelly Bean but I've got broken Vol Up button.
Is there any option to flash Jelly bean without using Vol+ button? Probably a little bit of tea got to the button and it stopped working.
I wanted to send my Advance on warranty and I wanted to make it free of any traces of using not original rom( I had CM, PAC and some others).

Download stock firmware, go to download mode and flash it with Odin.

If you're not using volup then use voldown (LOL) and flash a firmware with odin.

Ye... When i press Vol- Home Power, then big warning screen shows before my eyes and to continue to download mode i have to press vol+ button. But I somehow made it(one on thousand clicks vol+ works) and i flashed fresh jb firmware and it's still bricked on samsung's logo!

****... I accidently flashed GB firmware XXKL2 instead of LQE... Holy crap. If i somehow manage to go into download mode can i still flash JB and it will work? Or there is no chance anymore...? (hell what an idiot of me)
YEAH! I have been clicking Vol+ key for about 20 minutes and it worked once(warning screen changed to download) and I flashed LQE this time and it worked. Uf. Now I am relieved. Thank you guys for your efforts. Now i will go to service and see if they repair this key. I'm curious if they do. It's hard to live without it

You misunderstood. He used vol down key to enter download mode interface. The one it asked vol up to continue and vol down to cancel. Then, he tried pressing vol up for about 20 mins to get it work once to continue with download mode to flash the firmware using odin.
