Hello,
I am having trouble retrieving my bricked phone, it is a Samsumg Galaxy Ace GT-S5830.
I had placed a cyanogen rom, just not followed the steps properly and even managed to install, but some features such as camera and file manager were not working.
So I decided to try to return to the original rom, installed ROM Manager and tried to install Clockworkmod Recovery for him, but when I went for a recovery reboot the phone would not connect more, is restarting the screen samsumg.
There are many tutorials on the internet about how unbrick? this phone model, but all use Odin, just that I'm having trouble using the Odin because when I enter the Download mode on my phone and try to connect it via USB cable to the computer, a message appears saying that not computer recognizes, "uSB device not recognized", already tried everything to fix this error, installed Kies, drivers, went up on the computer's power options and continue with the same error.
So my problem is this, or I fix the problem "USB device not recognized" and recover the bricked phone, or is there another way to recover the cell without being by Odin?

My SGS isn't bricked. But lately after I flashed a deodexed 2.3.3 ROM, I have a hard time connecting my USB (USB not recognized). This afternoon, my phone jammed and won't boot (Stuck in Samsung Galaxy S I9000 Screen). I can't enter the recovery mode either for no reason (used to be able to).
Now I can't flash a stock ROM because my USB isn't recognized and recovery mode is unaccessible too. Trying to install the drivers for the USB now. Anyway as it's installing, any other ways to bring my phone back?
Flash a rom through odin. You could try darky's 9.2 ressurection edition.
The problem now is I could not flash with Odin because my USB isn't working

seriously try using other computer or laptop.. install the required drivers on your friends computer and then try to flash a different rom via odin
tried that. on different comp. same problem. USB not recognized with the drivers installed
I guess this is the problem. When I can't boot my phone, I did a backup restore. Maybe something is messed up and drivers don't recognize my phone as Samsung Galaxy S anymore. Anyway to force it to recognize?

if you can go into download mode then you surely can get it flashed with odin ..
try downloading the drivers again and then installing again and then try again....
... if everything fails then you should send it to the service center
Try unplugging and plugging the usb repeatedly. I've had this happen before, and I was able to get the phone recognised by doing this.
[Q] Phone Dead after kies restarted PC while updating then using Odin3 to "recover"
So my PC suddenly restarted while installing 2.2 on my phone. When I started up again it could not use its "emergency recovery". I searched for help and found a place where they had the exact same problem fixed it via "Odin3 Flasher" (google "Stock Firmware Odin3 Flasher" to get the exact guide I followed)
My phone is from Norway so I do NOT have at&t but now that i followed those instructions, all my phone does is flash on and off "at&t world phone", and I cannot get into download mode again. When I plug in the USB the at&t logo stops flashing and it goes completly black.
How can I get into download mode or fix this?
same thing happen with me today
the same thing is happened with me today when i used the ODIN3 v1.00.... Please help me...
you will need to make or purchase a usb jig : http://www.1giftbuy.com/p-10279-i9000-i9100-micro-usb-download-mode-jig-/?currency=GBP , then you will be able to use odin to flash a stock rom
Search on the forum, you can install android SDK, set usb debugging and then do an adb reboot quickly from computer after attaching the uab cable. I had the same brick problem, and I fixed it without usb jig.

Hi everyone
So here it is : No program is able to recognize/detect my Galaxy S i9000M (Bell Vibrant) when it's in download mode, so I can't flash any ROM. My phone is currently fully bricked and unusable. I cannot access to the recovery mode with the three-button thingy or by "adb reboot recovery"
I bricked using Odin 1.8, trying to flash a 2.2 froyo stock ROM from Samfirmware. The flashing went ok, but it failed to reboot. Actually, the screen was turned off and nothing was happening. I figured out it was fully bricked so I made a USB JIG, it worked. I can access my download mode.
I connected the phone to my Windows 7 computer and used Odin to flash back to 2.1 Eclair, with a stock ROM from Samfirmware. It failed (I don't remember the error message, it was a couple days ago...).
I tried with Heimdall Frontened. It had a problem uploading the .pit file, so the flashing didn't work.
Now each time i connect the phone to my computer, Windows (and Heimdall frontened and Odin) doesn't detect it,which means that I can't flash anything on it even though it is in download mode.
I have tried reinstalling like every driver on earth, still not responding.
I tried on another Windows 7 machine and on Ubuntu, the device is not detected.
I tried with different USB cables, nothing happens.
This is my hypothesis (maybe silly) : Could the problem be the Download mode being corrupted?
Whatever... I could use some help from you guys.
Thank you,
Sam
I had/have the same problem.
I installed the Samsung Kies and now my computer recognize my phone again.
But I have still no idea what I need to flash to make my phone working.

That is strange... I tried installing Kies and it didn't detect the phone. And you could just flash any 2.3 stock ROM with Odin I guess.
I bricked my galaxy mini (gt-s5570) one year ago while trying to flash a rom to it. Now when i try to unbrick it odin wont recognize it while it is in download mode. Widows does atleast realize that i connected a device but it is not recognizing it. i have tried multiple borts on my computer but none seem to work. Also while in download mode i only see the picture and "Downloading...", no "do not turn off target!" like i see in many pictures. Anybody know how to fix this? i have tried multiple unbrick tutorials but either i get stuck in "setup connection.." in odin while in ramdump or in android system recovery on my phone.
You don't need to say "do not turn off target" in your mini, it's normal.
Try download drivers (from Kies) and try again, or you can try with another PC.
Hello all,
My mother has a GT-N7000 running complete stock.
It updated something according to ehr saying and afterwards it rebooted.
After the reboot it rebooted again and now its bootlooping, it shows samsung and plays the sound.
The bleu glaze comes up and the the device reboots.
I cant get into recovery with vol up+home+power button combo.
It boots to it and it shows the droid with the sort of cubic icon spinning in its belly and after 3 sec the device reboots.
I cant do a factory reset there so i read about Odin and reflash stock image.
I downloaded the proper file and Odin 3.0.9 and installed samsung drivers.
I dont have Kies installed as i read it could give problems.
The device does go i ndownlaod mode but my PC running w7 ultimate 64bit doesnt recognize the device.
I tried 3 different USB ports from the Mobo, and i tried a couple of diferent USB cables.
One of the cables is original Samung U2 cable.
Everyt time i connect the device winodws shows the message: the USB device isnt recognized.
Odin doesnt register anything so i cant flash a thing with it to restore.
Does this mean the device is bricked?
Does the N7000 has some sort of unbrick JTAG mode or something or would linux help to rewrite all partitions?
Thx for any tips.
With best ergards,
Mister_mini
Edit: thinking back it could be possible USB debuuging has been turned on but im not sure on this part.
