Hi, i have a galaxy s3 and i was using it with a battery which is nearly dead. Last day, phone powered down due to low battery and it does not boot now.
I tried to enter download mode with the combination of [Power + Volume Down + Home] but it does not work.
Made a jig cable with 300K resistor and it does not work too.
I connect it to PC and device connected notif. sound heared but after couple of seconds its disconnected.
Phone vibrating and charge icon appears if i plug charge cable.
Are there another way to enter download mode or i have to flash it via jtag port with Riff Box etc. (bad news is i don't have it)

How do I unbrick my phone? The three button method into download mode isn't working. I there any other methods besides a jig?
Plug factory USB into a spot on the motherboard, not a hub. Remove battery, plug USB into phone, hold volume up & down. While holding volume up & down insert battery.
If that won't put you in download mode I doubt anything else will..

I personally use the Plug USB Cord into computer then plug it into phone while holding Vol Up and Down, but if this method or the one mentioned above don't work then you'll need a Jig.

i just used this and it works like a champ
I forgot to charge my charge my phone up before I tried to flash my ROM. Now I'm stck in AP Flashboot mode. It says:
Battery Low
Cannot Program
Transfer Mode:
USB Connected
What do I need to do? I have tried recharging it but it won't charge back up. A white light comes on the led notification light when I press the power button and it takes it out of AP mode.

1. Find someone with a bionic that will let you charge your battery in their phone.
2. Go to verizon and see if they can charge your phone using one of their Bionics or an external charger.
3. Buy an extra battery (they usually come with enough charge to restore your phone).
4. Buy an external battery charger.
5.Buy a motorola factory flash cable. This type of cable has a different pin out and has the +5v on pin 1 which bypasses the battery and powers the device directly even without a battery inserted at all. here is a link... http://shop.teamblackhat.info/

Hi,i have been trying to flash the new v20 version to my Lg P880,and i have all the drivers installed,windows enabler etc...everything that says i must do in the tutorial-i did it...
But the problem is i cant enter the s/w mode without the battery.
When i remove the battery,i hold the volume - key and plug my usb cable in,and nothing happens.
I even tried it with volume + or holding both buttons-but it just wont enter the s/w mode.
I can enter it while the battery is still in the phone,but if i take it out-it wont.
What could be the issue?

it doesn't matter if your battery is in or not. try it with the battery still inside - if you can access S/W mode that way.
If you have desktop pc issue can be your PC usb port! Logically your phone need some kind of electric power to operate in SW mode, if you use front pc port or some kind of usb hub maybe they doesn't provide enough power, and when you put your battery its working..try to plug your phone in motherboard's usb port on backside of pc case!
I have similar situation where i had huge amount of different usb devices plugged in my pc, and SW mode only worked with battery...and sometimes lg tool asked me to reconnect the phone at the moment just before flash start (even so my phone was already in SW mode and recognized from lg tool), and then i had to put battery in phone otherwise lg tool said that phone is not conected!
But if you can go in SW mode, than you do not have a problem!
Hi, I have a problem with my Galaxy S3 Mini, the issue is that the phone was discharged, went out and did not turn over. When you get home and connect the charger it came on and also the loading screen. After ten minutes or so, left the battery charging icon and then off again. since then, the phone will not turn on, I can not enter the download mode or recovery mode if I connect it to the computer does not recognize it.
I installed Carbon Maclaw Mod 4.4.2
What could have been and what can I do?

so it doesnt do anything when you try to turn it ton? not even vibrating? if you plug it in you dont get the battery icon
as normal when offline charging? if yes i have the same problem after trying to reflash the recovery via heimdall
It seems a hardbrick try a samsung usb jig you can make at home (google it) or buy it from ebay it only 2 $.if jig didn't worked you need to send it samsung if you have warranty or try jtag riff box
Charging goes OK, but app always show discharging! Also pc don't recognize phone in normal mode and flash mode (volume down). Motherboard is not damaged, changing battery and USB flex didn't help
Solved. Close this thread
