hey guys i tried tu install gingerbread on my galaxy s but now my phone is not working and odin doesint detects my phone (but pc shows couse its connected) what to do pls help
Have you tried getting your phone into download mode? If you can get into download mode then your'e one step closer...
yeah i tried but its not opening just pc shows couse my phone is connected :/
Use ADB to force your phone into download mode. If you have ADB set up on your PC you want to use the command "adb reboot download" to get this into download mode.
thx for helping
it not working maby u know another way
C:\Users\Mano>cd c:\androidsdk\tools
c:\AndroidSDK\tools>adb reboot recovery
'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Hi,
What you mean about not working: doesnt turn on?, bootloop?, etc?
About adb you have to be in the root folder... cd yourfolder then run your adb command... . If you cant even manage that why messing with a flash? Master the basics first then flash. I m sure you didnt take time to check the 3 button combo?!
But well, what is done, is done
i tried that 3 button combo all the ways but...
and when i turning it on in screen apears just samsung galaxy s and thats it
I mean checking if the combo worked before attempting to flash...
I assume the recovery dont work neither, so you good to do some search on JIG in the i9000 forum.
Good luck
i hope there is another way to fix it :/

There is a fix for enter recovery from off, but you'll need odin for it.
It doesn't boot normal? If it does, use terminal.
In terminal:
su
reboot recovery

No response from computer what so ever?
So..if you are sure it's not the cable that's faulty, i guess you have no choice but to take it to repair.
No connection to computer - no odin or adb.
No recovery mode by buttons.
No boot to system to enter recovery with terminal.

Hey man
it's already a good thing you can get into download mode.
First off, you'll have to search for a stock rom for your country on Sammobile, go to this page and enter your device's information and your country: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/
Second off, you'll have to unzip/unrar the file from Sammobile, which will give you a .tar file - that right there is the stock firmware that we'll now flash onto your device again.
Third off, you should put your device in download mode and connect your S3 Mini to your computer via a micro-USB cable (if your computer doesn't recognise the phone, download Samsung Kies and that will install the correct drivers so your computer does recognise it).
Then open up Odin and put the .tar file in the 'PDA' section. Leave the other sections empty! Hit start and wait until it says that the device is all good to go. Don't disconnect the cellphone until Odin says so!

They have other methods of getting into recovery mode as well such as ADB method as i am using that method. Just search how to install adb and boot into recovery.

To achieve with ADB mode I need to install some application on android?
when I searched about it, the tutorials show before installing an application
You install onto computer and use the command prompt in windows to boot to recovery just search how to install adb. It can get confusing to download and install it might take a bit of time.

Hello!
I did a root with odin on my device many time ago, it was successfull. But after that, when I plug the USB in the computer, it only charges. It wasn't important for me, because my device was rooted.
But nowadays I tried to update to 4.4.2 from 4.1.2, so I thought that if I wipe cache and data the USB will work again... but no, so I thought: "maybe if I unroot...", and now I have a gt-i8190n without root and with an USB that only charges.
I tried to update from SD, but the result is: "signature verification failed".
I can get in download mode, but my computer doesn't recognize the device (tried in other computers, and with other cables).
So, here is my question: Will a JIG USB solve anything?
Thanks

I've tried many files (I can take the microSD and load files in the computer). But when I start the recovery mode and select external storage, it seems to work, until it arrives to that signature message.
Yes, my i8190n is working as good as Spain in the world cup.

I think you need to install the USB drivers for your s3 mini.
If you use TWRP as recovery then boot to recovery > settings > uncheck "Zip signature verification" then you will not again get a failed message.
Do a nandroid backup before you start flashing

The drivers are correctly installed, because the first time I rooted I had no problem, and after it, I have plugged another device (an i8190n, too) and the computer recognizes it without any problem.
I have a 3e recovery, so I can't uncheck "Zip signature verification".
May I start to look for a jig USB?

No wonder why it fails 3e recovery is the stock recovery from s3 mini. You can only flash signed zip from Samsung. You need a custom recovery for flashing custom ROMs if you still have root access then download from play store "ROM Manager" and install CWM recovery or download "[ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool" for flash CWM or TWRP recovery.

Put the phone in download mode and flash twrp in odin. It's the only way to put a new recovery there without root already.
Otherwise root it, and then flash recovery with rommanager or other similar app.

I have made an order of the jig USB, and it is supposed to arrive in 20 days (less than 2$ and free shipping). Until then, must wait... I'll will tell you if it works or not.

Even when you put your phone in download mode and then connect the cable?
If so, same thing will probably happen with a USB jig. They are only to force the phone to DL mode. You still have to connect it after that..
How can you tell that it charges in download mode? There is no icons for that.

Yes, when I connect the cable Odin doesn't recognize it, so I supose that only charges (it's true, perhaps it doesn't do it, there isn't any icon). It's supposed when I conncet the phone to the computer, it should pop up the "new storage" (with Odin closed), but it doesn't, only charges.
I want try USB jig, because I have read that it will put the counter to 0 (hoping is this the problem)

Counter is not set to 0 with usb jig on this device. We use triangle away for that.
If you got Kies installed, then uninstall it and install samsung drivers only.
See if there's dust in the phones usb. Take some thin plastic, but be gentle.
Just a few ideas but you've probably tried it all.

It's what I supposed, but it's a way to try if USB connection works (not 100% but if it doesn't work I will know it's a hardware problem)
I've tried uninstall Kies and install samsung drivers, I've cleaned the dust in the usb, but I don't understand what I have to do with the plastic, is the same plastic to keep food fresh? must put it on the usb?

my USB JIG has arrived and I have tried it... and still doesn't work. Yes, it starts the download mode, but when I plug the USB to try something, the computer (ODIN) doesn't do anything. I have tried with my wife's phone and it works, it's a i 8190n, too.
I'm not going to try anything more, YOU WIN THIS TIME i8190n!
Hi, I have the same problem with my GT-8190, but it happens after my phone drop onto water..

Do you have an idea how to flash official stock rom without PC(Odin)?

I don't think so because this happened to me long ago when I tried to unlock bootloader.But I did something to the driver to work adb properly and it worked.And now I forgot that method and couldn't find in google also.So I'm really in big trouble.I just don't know why when I want to flash the stock rom and flashtool show in popup to power off the phone and press vol down button and connect to computer using usb cable but vol button don't work or not give any signal to computer.So I can't flash the rom.
Go to sony official site and download drivers.. ZR drivers dont exist but you can use drivers for Z, install those on your computer and use the fastboot method again and you should be fine.. Your phone is only soft bricked.. Hard brick is when there are absolutely no life in the phone at all.. Use a boot.img you know will work and no need to flash stock ROM once you're in recovery.. Unless you want to of course.. Custom ROM will boot your phone just fine
Also take your battery out and re-insert to make sure your phone is properly off.. Flashtool should also work after that

ZR driver exist in Sony developer website and I installed the driver but I don't know why my computer not recognizing my phone.My phone can turn into fastboot mode(blue light on when pressing vol up and connecting cable to pc) but when I type command "adb devices" the listed device is empty I mean no adb fastboot device found.I'm just asking the drivers are not working beacuse of windos 10?Actually when after I use custom rom I couldn't connect my phone to pc.So any driver can fix this problem?I searched really hard on google but couldn't find any proper sloutions.

You've managed to install the drivers inc the lagan drivers in flashtool and connected your phone in fastboot mode with flashtool running and flashtool still don't recognize your phone? I've done that loads of times even with no drivers installed and flashtool has been able to recognize the device in fastboot.. If that's the case, then I'm sorry I'm not able to help any further as flashtool has always been my failsafe when things have gone wrong.. Adb and fastboot are usually no help for me in Windows 10..

My problem was created because local charger damaged my phone battery.So I couldn't turn on my device like yours.I replaced the battery and charger from Sony Center and now my phone is good as new.So Try to use other good battery(small or similer size that suites to your phone's battery pin)and see if your phone turns on without any issue.Then you can target the problem.
