[Q][I9000]Bootloop, Home button is broken, How to flash new ROM?

Hello,
I have I rare problem. I tried to flash a new ROM and it failed, so now the phone is stuck on the boot image. Ok, usualy I would have solved this with CMW 3 button recovery combination, but my phones Home button is broken so I cannot acces it, but I made the USB Jig and can acces download mode.
My question is how do I unbrick my phone?
What I tried: Using SDK tools to reboot the phone in recovery with ADB, no succes. Sdk doesnt see my device.
Something called Fastboot, but from what I read Samsung doesn't have such a feature for the phone to enable.
Thank you.

I had the same problem a couple of time ago, but all 3 buttons were defect (see my signature ).
What I always did:
when you can get in download mode then restock via odin and phone will boot again.
Here is slappys rescue kit what i always use when i have to restock.
Unzip it and flash the Rom via Odin. There is also a txt file with a guide included.

With this flashed rom you will have in the power down menue the funktion: back to recovery or back to download. So first time go back to download mode or use usb jig again and then flash the included root kernel.
Then flash the rom of your choice.
If you would go to jelly bean i would recommend to use Mackays 1.3.0. first. Because you have to flash JB twice or even 3 times and after the first flash of this Mackay it goes automatically back in recovery mode.
Link to older Mackay Roms:
http://www.xdafileserver.nl/index.php?dir=Samsung/Galaxy+S/MackayROM/JB41/old
After flashing this you could go to google play and download an app for softkeys for example softkeys for root users.
After that and if you want or like you could flash also a JB rom with included virtual softkeys, like for example SLIM. You have to enable the navigation bar in settings but after that you can use your phone quite normal.
Hope this helps and wish you a good success!

How long should it last to restock with odin?I'm waiting for about 30m and nothing. Still says Do not turn of target! No Loading bar n phone or Odin showing any progress. What is wrong?

Solved it. I was using the USB port in front of the Desktop unit and i guess it doesn't have enough voltage. Worked when i switched to the back USB port. Thanks a lot man!! You saved my phone !

Try a different USB port, different cable, and drivers. If none of that works try a different computer
If download mode works you should be able to get it back

I've gotten to the point, after letting it charge for awhile, where i can now get back into recovery mode and i can get to the AT&T logo.
Any Idea of what i should do next?

Flash Odin....
You can try a factory reset but I recommend Odin. Follow what I said before

+1. Make sure you have the proper USB drivers installed. An Odin flash is your best bet.

[Q] Odin Fail

Hi guys. My problem is that i can't use Odin. I can't flash rooted firmware, i can't flash recovery, simple: Nothing.
I managed to root it without the USB cable. But i waited for Samsung to launch official 4.4. You know they won't .
Problem:
I want to flash the 4,4 KitKat Cyanogen Mod 11 but i can't.
I can't flash custom recovery.
Odin always fails.

if you wanna install custom CWM Recovery just go to the playstore and download ROM Manager. From the settings of that app you can download CWM Recovery. Then you download the CM 11.0 zip file and place it on your sd card (doesn't matter which one), then go to recovery by turning off your phone and starting in up again but while holding the volume up + home + power button until you enter CWM Recovery. Then you go to install zip from external/internal sd card (depends where you've put the CM 11.0 zip file). use the volume buttons to scroll over the options and press the power button once when you've highlighted the option you need. At first it might seem that it has crashed, cause it just sits there checking md5 but just leave it for a couple of mins and it will install the ROM. Hope i helped

Odin troubleshooting: If Odin accidentally gives you "fail" try the following:
- Repeat procedure.
- Make sure that all actions of Kies are disabled from task manager.
- Change USB port.
- Try another usb cable (make sure it is the original).
- Try another Odin version.
- Uninstall and re-install Samsung driver.
- Try another computer.
- Run Odin as administrator
- Turn off antivirus
Check this link , this contains Odin flash able Cm11 and TWRP.... from NewMaclaw...

Hello,
Now the odin is not even recognising the device, Before it couldnt perforn the NAND write.

Start fresh... Remove battery and let the phone rest for couple of minutes.. Then try again.. Just go ahead and flash a stock rom. And check where it fails.

Try redownloading the file, it may be corrupted during download.

Hello. I can say that the file isnt corrupt because I have flash that ROM a numerous time before. But until the last time when I was flashing custom rom night owl lollypop version, it stuck in boot loop and then when I tried to flash that , it dint work. Now I cant even go to recovery mode.

As the log say "<ID:0/003> SetupConnection.." and not move ahead.. there is some connection problem with Phone and PC... Could be a driver problem.. or Kies might be running in the background...
There is no writing of data what so ever.

I tried in another laptop and it worked. My mobile was dead for weeks and its back to life. But I had samsung driver. I dint have Kies installed. dont know was the problem in connection. Anyways thanks to nokiamodeln91 and AutumQueen92 :good:

I have the same issue with my wife's phone. Yesterday all of a sudden the phone rebooted and now we can't pass the Samsung logo.
I can't boot into recovery, but i can boot into Download mode. The problem is I can't use ODIN to re flash the phone or do something since it gets stuck in "Initialzation".
