So I'm trying to get the phone into Download Mode and it just starts flashing a bunch of different colors , like teal and red. I'm trying to get into Download mode to flash back to stock from GSI. Anyone else seen this before and/or know how to fix it?

Hi Guys,
I made a really terrible mistake. I did not set my international version Galaxy S to USB debugging mode before attempting to flash Voodoo lag fix with Odin. Now all I see when I turn on my phone is the phone-!-pc message. I can still get to download mode but no luck getting into recovery mode. Odin seems to be able to detect my phone when I set it to download mode and connect it to my PC. Is there anything I can do to save my phone?
Any help would be appreciate.
Ok. I managed to save my phone. Turns out I could still re-flash an official firmware. /Close Thread
Hi all,
I was just trying to flash a friend's phone after flashing my own Galaxy S countless times, but it wouldn't get into download mode. After searching the forum I tried one of the methods of getting it to go into download mode - Aries_P-SBL.tar.md5 the file was called. However, it failed, and now I can't get anything on the phone other than the phone to computer error icon. Tried 3-button download mode, no joy.
Is there anything we can do, or should he send it back and get a new one?
Cheers in advance!

Did it go in to download/ recovery mode before you flashed it? Sounds like you need a jig to force it in to download mode!
I could only get it into download mode by using ADB whilst the phone was on and correctly booted. It won't go back in now as I can't get the phone to boot!
make a home made jig resistor between pin 4 and 5 .... i think is a thread about it somewhere on this forum...
so i rooted my phone yesterday and put cyanogenmod 7.1 on it, then tried to flash stock back on to my phone and it would just sit at the att boot logo, you know the "att world phone" one. So this morning I tried flashing again with odin and now I just get this white screen that flashes in download mode and when booting.
It also flashes quickly enough to where you cant flash anything over with odin because it removes itself before its finished.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Can u get into download mode and it stay ? If not, u need a Jig. Check out mobiletechvideos.com
Because you need to be able to re-partition in Odin to get back to the rfs.

i am also having the same problem but i can get into download mode any help please?
Hi guys, I come to you as I'm truly desperate about the actual state of my phone.
Earlier today, I decided to go back to a stock rom. When I tried to use Odin, I realized that my phone wasn't recognized by my PC hile in download mode. To avoid this problem, I used Mobile Odin and successfully flashed a stock rom (S5830BUKT2_S5830SFRKT1_S5830XWKT8_HOME.tar). Then I wanted to re-install a custom recovery mode, and I went with version 6.0.4.6 (6.0.4.6-cooper_fix.zip was the actual file). After I did that I couldn't boot in recovery mode anymore : the screen goes black, the logo reappears, then the screen goes white, then gets stuck at a blue screen. At this point I have to remove the battery and boot normally. So I was like 'nevermind I'll flash again the stock rom with Mobile Odin'. But the app requires for me to root the phone. Which I can't do without using the recovery mode. And I still can't use Odin (download mode not recognized). (I don't know why, but I don't have to press Volume Up to actually enter download mode, so I guess it's some kind of custom download mode).
So here I am, asking you to help me because every solution I can think of seems unapplicable to my case.
Thanks in advance !

cwm6.0.4.6 had blue screen issue. use cwm 6.0.4.7. In windows 8 I faced difficulty flashing stock. make sure you are using windows 7. and download mode is sometime pain in @ss. sometimes it simply restarts phone. Be patient.
Hi all,
I've tried to put an ICS ROM onto my Ace and managed to screw it up, it boot loops, and I can't use the recovery because it's CWM6 with the graphics error that causes it to display a solid blue screen. so i've tried to use ODIN (v4.42 if that matters) to flash a stock ROM onto it but every time I try to use regular download mode it won't connect to my PC, but, it connects in emergency download mode. problem part 2: ODIN will not flash to the thing it gets stuck at "<1> setup connection" and will sit there and do absolutely nothing
anyone know how or where I can find a fix for this thing?
Never mind, got it working
