[Q] some realy deep problem jetblack

Hi everybody
Let's start with this , i am an idiot
now we got that out of the way let's talk about what happened
i recently tried to flash this rom P1000JPJM4 all well except i was stuck to samsung logo so i tried to restore my old ROM but i couldn't because the bootloader was locked ... so i tried other roms non of them worked ...
so i thought of installing P1000XWJMI then fixing the bootloader then go back to the old rom or stay on this one ...
before i start flashing P1000XWJMI the battery logo showed up with very little left but i started any way
the device went dawn while i was flashing so i disconnected it and plugged it in the wall for re-juice but the logo of a computer and a phone with a yellow triangle started flashing ... i left it for a while when i came back i reconnected it to the computer but i cant but it in download mod or pretty much do any thing just jet black screen
reconnected it to the wall started flashing again ... to the computer nothing
so the question is is my tab now just a shiny piece of plastic or is there a way around this ???
thanks in advance

should this be in Q & A area, not here in Developer Zone!!
wrong area dude!!
Seems like you bricked your device!! But bricking a Samsung Galaxy Aint Easy Task.
Have you try holding Vol - + Power for Download Mode?

sorry for that ..
nop no luck just a nice black screen nothing more
while we are at it what do you thing i should do with it ?
shuld i blend it
will it blend

Hold power down for 10 sec then leave tab charging for 4-6 hours and try to reflash either Power key vol down or vol up.
Odin should see the tab when charged.
Don't worry

thanks man
gonna try that
when i held the power down for 10 seconds it kept flashing after that is this acceptable ? i mean leaving it charging while the freaking picuter is flashing ?
thanks again

so i did what you sugested ... nothing
the device is not recognized nor powering on
any good ideas ...or bad even

Leave it pluged in your comeputer for at least 30 minutes and when it gets connected to the pc push the power and vol. down buttons right away, just don't let go until it go into download mode. When I did that I had odin open, I don't know if that makes any difference.

I remember similar case to yours that was fixed after full charging of the battery.
Keep it charging for 6-8 hours then disconnect the cable and then push both Power and Vol-down buttons. If this does not bring download screen then try Power and Vol-up.
In case of success you should see tab-to-comp screen. Both screens indicate that the Tab is in download mode and you connect it to PC with ODIN and try reflashing.
Full battery charge is critical for the Tab - computer handshake. The cable is multifunctional and based on voltage level computer/tab make decision about the purpose of the connecting line.

thanks every body i think i got it
just left it connected for about 2 houres and it is poping again
trying to flash now
thanks again

I hope it worked, its pretty scary.

[Q] Tab won't go into download mode or recovery.

I'm in a bit of a pickle here.
Galaxy Tab (p1010) was stuck in a loop a while ago. I've tried to put the Tab into Download mode to flash a new firmware onto it but it doesnt work.
The tab, when plugged into mains just turns on, blank screen with back-light on and turns back off. It keeps doing this repetitively. If I hold down the Volume - button and the power button it goes into Download mode for about half a second and switches off again. The one or two times in which I've managed to get to Download mode doesn't last for more than 15 seconds which is not enough for it to download the firmware from Odin.
I've tried Volume + and Power button to get to recovery but no luck there either
I'm going to leave the tab on charge overnight but has anyone else had this problem before and found a solution to it??
Edit: NEVERMIND!!!!! In my stupidity I wasn't using the Samsung Mains plug to charge it so not enough power was going to the Tab. I managed to put the Samsung charger in, leave it for a couple of mins and managed to get to Download mode just fine. Tab is now reflashed and working fine

[Q] My Note Doesn't Turn On

Hi,
I've tried to flash my Galaxy Note to siyah kernel, and unfortunately it got bricked. It was turning on, however after samsung logo showing up, it was showing distorted colors and lines.
I've bought a jig, it showed the download mode screen for a second and turned off. I wanted to charge it, charging suddenly stopped, and started to not turn on.
I've bought a battery charger, charged the battery overnight, still not turning on.
I'm in USA and I got my phone via Expansys-usa, what shall I do ?

Can you get to Download Mode screen now that it's charged? Press Volume Down + Home Button + Power simultaneously (Power button the last) and tell us if you can boot into Download Mode.
If you can, I'll walk you through to getting your Note alive and kicking again.

Unfortunately, I can not get any signal of life from my phone. I can not get to Download Mode screen neither with jig, nor with pressing 3 buttons. I guess I'll have to send it back.

It seems to be your only option if you cannot get your Note to boot into Download mode. My commiserations, mate.

try to charge for 20-30 mins your phone, maybe your phone battery discharged and thats why you cant go in download mode ;D

Pull out the battery and put back after 20-30 secs. Then try download mode normally pressing hardware buttons, otherwise use JIG.

Nope, it doesn't charge at all. I've tried every method again, nothing seems to work.

Did you manage to get it to go into download mode again? I am in the same situation.

It says, low battery can't get into download mode. Since it doesn't charge I'm going to buy another battery and battery charger and will try again.

You could also try an external battery charger, this would be a cheaper solution.

Very sorry for you, but where did you got siyah kernel for note...
Did you flash the one for galaxy s2?

Dont worry ur phone working it just no sound and no lights, screen off......but he can see odin.....go and try 30 times.....(download mode >>>odin)
Take the damn battery out.
Wait 7 sec
Put it back.
Press Volume Down + Home Button + Power* ( Your screen will be off !)
Connect to the PC odin and it will be sound witch is mean your phone connected to odin)
Do it., and dont tell me you cant

Yep, I've used the one for GS2. I've got a new charger with a battery and now can get into download mode. Odin recognizes it, however I don't remember which Stock Rom the phone came with. Which one I should go for ?

[Q] Help Please - Battery ran out...phone keeps restarting even in download mode.

Searched but not found a similar problem that has a solution. I ran my battery dead by mistake and now all it does is restart after a few seconds on semaphore logo if unplugged, or keep looping buffering circle/battery charge symbol when plugged in. 3BC takes it to download mode but it again restarts after a few seconds...no way near enough to flash anything. Any Ideas?
I was running latest makay rom (2.8.0) and Semaphore 2,9,15s......this seems pretty fatal to me but if someone knows better ill be a very happy man.
Thanks.

Keep it plugged in for a few hours and see if this fixes it.

I have quite the same issue with my SGS i9000. Im running on slim bean 4.1.2 i think and semaphore (quessing the same as above)
So the battery got drained to zero. I charged the battery to full capacity while my phone was turned off. It did this okay and charged battery to 100%. Then i booted my phone only to find out it to start looping in boot. (Start screen to semaphore and then restarts.)
i removed the battery for about an hour, and rebooted the phone but it didn't help at all.
Can't get into recovery (vol up + home + power), though it did go into download mode.
snapper.fishes Keep it plugged in for a few hours and see if this fixes it.

As i plugged my phone in in to charger it shows as the battery would be empty,but it doesn't begin to charge it.
Ill be happy to answer if i forgot to mention something important according this matter.

If you can go into download mode but not recovery mode, there is only one thing that you can do - flash an odin rom.

ill try that.
Thanks for the quick answer. Now lets see if that helps..

Tried keeping it plugged in for a few hours but with no joy, odin still recognises the device for the tiny bit of time that the phone it stays on, seen a few comments suggesting it's a battery problem. Have ordered a new one and will see what happens then. The old one was made in Sept 2010 and rarely been turned off since,so i guess its probably to be expected. Will post back when i get the new battery for other peoples future reference.

Hello
I have a Samsung Galaxy S exactly with this problem.
It has cyanogen mod installed.
When i try to turn it on, it shows the default Samsung logo, and then the cyanogen mod screen, it blinks, and displays the cyanogen mod again. After that it reboots and returns do displaying the Samsung logo. ... Inifinite loop!
When i try to plug it in to charge, it shows the battery logo, and a "waiting" or "starting" to charge, blinks, reboots, starts recharging, another loop.
Both loops only stops by removing the battery.
Exactly as this thread describes.
Also, i cannot enter recovery mode: volume up + home + power, but it can enter download mode: volume down + home + power.
Is there any way of getting it to boot other than deleting everything on the phone, as i assume reflashing it would do?

I also can't enter recovery, doesn't have time to boot that far. If it is like mine then you will be unable to stay in download mode for long enough to flash anything...if you can get to download and it not reboot again, you have some hope. You could possibly flash a different kernel via odin, semaphore possibly, and see if that helps, but if not you would have to flash back to stock and re-root etc (data will be lost). I will report back when i get a new battery and see if that is the issue (Friday Hopefully), I feel it might be battery issue because my ROM had been running perfectly for days and it started when i let battery completely discharge.

Flashing will only delete app data. All your photos and music files will remain.

Just an update... Battery hasn't arrived yet due to snow here. But just by chance I left the phone bootlooping without charger in and it randomly decided to not bootloop. Was able to flash stock with odin root, upgrade to CM 10.1 and restore my nandroid. Oh well.

[SOLVED]
I recovered my Galaxy Y(s5360) by flashing another kernel from recovery mode in those few seconds for which recovery mode was starting...

I tried that but got soft brick, not enough time to flash kernel image. My power button is now broken so I feel that it may have been stuck in the on position. Think it's stuck in off now. Oh well

Frozen on reboot

Hi,
I was using my Galaxy Tab S2 when it suddenly shutdown. I'm not sure if the battery was empty but I'm pretty sure that not.
I tried to reboot the device but the screen displayed the charging battery image. I tried to charge it during 2 hours.
Since then, when I'm booting, the screen display the samsung home page and ... that's all. I tried to push power and vol- but it doesn't change anything. It loop on the home screen and reboot.
I can enter in Odin Mode ... but I don't know if it can help.
Any idea about what can I do ?
Thx a lot.
