If you're able to provide information as to exactly what you did to get your device in this state that would be immensely helpful in regards to diagnosing the problem. However you'll probably be able to recover your device using a custom jig.
I can not be more explicit. I wanted to try a rom. Wasn't satisfied so i downloaded another one (with cache file, database file, bootloader, etc... ) but the file have been dowloaded too quickly (i think the zip file was corrupted...)
So i did the flash, and my tab don't wake up. I don't have a brick state (with the usb and pc logo). I don't have the samsung/galaxy tab logo. Ihave nothing on my screen. Like my on/off button was broken...
And whatever i do(like the combo on/off with the volume down), my computer don't recognize the tab. So i can't flash it again.

Well you're going to have to be if you want anyone's help.
What files did you flash? Which software did you use? Which version? Were you given errors? How did you flash the files?
Please provide a detailed step by step run-down of exactly what you did.
I can't remember, and i'm french, i can't find the right word to explain the situation...
I flashed my tab with HEIMDALL (the last version on the website) i think the problem is when i wanted to flash with the file EURO.pit (i choose this file in the "bootloader" category of the software HEIMDALL).
The problem... My computer can't recognyze the tab because i can't turn on the tab, so... I don't know what can i do.
EDIT: And HEIMDALL don't tell me any error. Just "Flash Complete, Rebooting"
EDIT 2: I think i used the wrong bootloader...
Up?
What can i do? Is a batterie problem?
Let your Tab charging for 5 Hours and then try again.
Sounds like you've flashed a bootloader not designed for your tablet. Luckily all Galaxy S devices store a backup copy of the secondary bootloader which is utilised when a certain resistance is detected on the USB port. You can send it off to Samsung and they'll repair it, but they might charge you. The other option is to build your own custom jig which will activate the backup secondary bootloader.
now ive got the same problem. i tried a custom recovery i found in the "bible" sticky...clock work wasnt working when i was doing adb commands. the recovery i tried is called 3e. all it would do is reboot, t-mo logo and then bootloader words would flash very quick and black screen (backlit) press the back button and i got the triangle droid.
then i got it to go into download mode and tried a rom with odin this is the rom if it helps
GT-P1000_P1000XXJME_P1000OXAJME_P1000XXJMB_P1000XXJME_XX_ITV.zip.enc
unzipped, selected in pda and clicked start. failed at the last second and the downloading android screen on tab was stuck so i powered it down.
stupid stupid stupid!
now it wont turn on period, i get nothing from usb connection or secret button presses.
ill try the "rig" tomorrow, but how will i hack up this galaxy usb to work? the guide says micro usb but obviously thats for a phone.
please help if you can, i just got this thing today
@Benjamin: I can do a custom jig for a galaxy tab?
EDIT: But i don't think the jig will help me..
"If your phone screen is always black, that is it does not display the white Galaxy S/Samsung/AT&T logo when you switch it on, then sorry, this jig will not help you. "
HELP please? Can i do a custom jig for the galaxy tab? And How?
press and hold the power button for 10 second make sure it totally off
then try to enter download mode
if u are able to enter download mode
flash roto jme v4
if it a battery problem
i think it may be battery flat, try plug it in to the charger see if it work after 10 min

[Q] Galaxy S Wony Boot!

After downloading an app from the market (cant remember the name of it)..
It rebooted itself and now the phone wont reboot.
It comes up with the Galaxy S I9000 logo and everything but go into my main screen
It continues to vibrate and the screen stays all black.
The lights on the 'back' on the left and the 'menu' panel on the left has its lights on but it just vibrates as if its force closing and wont boot...
Tried system reboot by holding down the keys and tries reboot but wont reboot...
Any ideas????
My phone has been rooted so im guessing that the warranty on the phone wont apply??
Other people from other forums advised that it would be a good idea for me to install a different ROM but Im not too good with these things so I dont know what it means, also having trouble understanding how it can be done when I cant access th main screen of my phone?
Please help

Since your phkne was rooted check if it can go into download mode or not.
Switch off your phone. Press the volume down key the home key and the power button n switch on the phone a screen may then appear with a yellow symbol sayn downloading. Check if that hapens and take it frkm there.

Hmm you first need to open odin on ur pc and then get your phone in download mode and then connect it via usb.
Well there are many other threads in the android development department search there and you may find it.

Darkyys recovery rom is a good place if all else fails, It has got me out of a few holes when even the standard roms failed to work
you'll need odin (i recommend version 1.7) but if I remember correctly it's included in the download with darkyys rom

[SOLVED] Help - Brick after trxing to restore factory settings

Hi guys,
sorry if this has been covered somewhere else, but I spend the last few days with reading thorugh alot of posts and information but I haven't found a solution for my problem. So this is the situation:
I have a S5830 here which was rooted by me for my girldfriend. I left the stock rom on it, there was really just a plain root, nothing more. So about a week ago my girlfriend decided that she wanted a new phone and tried to get rid of the root by using the reset to factory settings button. Well, since then the phone is somewhat bricked.
I can enter download mode by pressing Home-Button and Power Button aswell as emergency download mode by pressing volume-up+down, home button and power. When I try to get to the Recovery Menu (the stock one) I get a funny picture with a cellphone a warning sign and a computer (what the hell is this supposed to tell me?).
Confronted with this situation I thought I might just be able to push the stock firmware back on to get rid of that problem but ODIN won't let me. It recognizes the phone (yellow button appears) but when I try to flash it, it stops at "Setup Connection" and won't go any further. I tried all the suggested solutions (different computer, different usb port, killing kies in task manager etc.) Nothing works.
I'm in urgent need of a helping hand here Or just somebody who tells me "Well you're f*****".
Thanks in advance
First : Please don't use Vulgar words since it's a XDA rule ..that's why it go censored
Second : What exactly happens when you normally turn on your device ?
Third : Are you using the right version of ODIN ...Use v4.38
Forth : Keep distracting your girlfriend so that she forgets about the phone ..you know like take her on a DATE
Fifth : Hit the THANKS button if somehow helped
Re: [Q] Help - Brick after trxing to restore factory settings
Hi dasABCD!
You can go to recovery by pressing Home+ Power buttons. If you have CWM and a previous Nandroid backup you can restore from here, or install any other ROM easily.
That's not what you wanted but it's easy to do.
Good luck.

Hi Vishrut Chhajer!
OP says that he goes to download mode by pressing the Home+ Power buttons, and that's the way for going to recovery.
I said what I said just in case he was making the wrong steps. If not, you're right.
Good luck.

i9001 bricked?

Hi guys, i gonna tell you about how my i9001 was stuck in a bootloop. Maybe you could help me. I'm sick of it.
Cause: I installed cm10 and cwm5 or 6 as recovery and upgrade my device using Ota Updater. When I restarted my i9001, it got stuck in a bootloop.
What my i9001 can display: It can access to rampdump mode and download mode. In case I try to turn on my i9001 or access to recovery mode the Samsung logo/word is shown twice and stops showing anything else. It often gets stuck showing the typical grey battery flat (with a loading stopped) and the black screen alternately. This is caused when I a disconnect the USB cable from my computer/laptop.
Attempts: i've tried everything except for the right solution. Lots of forum threads and nothing works for me. I've tried:
1.- Boot_loader for device boot.
2.- I've flashed an stock rom: XXKQP, and 2 more: BVKPC y XXKQ1. Each one are official.
3.- And then recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4 and -6.0.1.2.
4.- I've tried, then, flashing feamodrecovery 1.2.
5.- Nothing works for me.
I've been using Odin 4.43. AriesVE in OPS section and when flashing these roms: one package. For recovery packages: one package and pda (I tried these two options).
I can't reach at recovery mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Greetings!

When phone boots there's nearlz always a solution
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda app-developers app
slow--welder59, any of these solutions helped me. I tried with any other combination of combos but nothing happened. I didn't know to use adb method. I installed adb drivers but it didn't detect my device. When I entered to download mode and pressed Install (in the program) tried to download something but it stopped.
Any suggestion?
Can anyone help me? I want to exhaust all possible options.

What happens when you try to format data from recovery...?
If you get some errors, write them here...
If everything goes well, then it is not what im expecting (in that case problem is probably easier to solve)...

Yes I can, and that's the reason why I don't give up hope. However, I've tried installing some stock roms and recoveries and nothing worked for me.
Try one of the following (or both even if your desperate):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1922505 (broodROM RC5 download link) [recomended]
http://broodplank.net/old/flashsamsungi9001.php (skip chapter 5 as it doesn't apply) [if that doesn't work]
edit:: USB Drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956
stepie22, thank you for your help. Nothing worked for me.
First link: another typical manual for installing a stock rom via Odin. During the process my device powered off. It was supposed to reboot. After the process ended, i disconnected it from PC and its screen showed a grey empty battery (with a loading in the middle) and word "Samsung" alternatively.
Second link: this was the solution for my first brick. Then, my device showed this yellow triangle. This second time is annoying me. I haven't found any solution to change, at least, the behaviour of my device.
Any other different solution? Thnks guys.

See this ... if that is the triangle, find that part on the wiki page.
Maybe your device got the eMMC Bug?
Normally your Device would be hardbricked if you "over" flashed.
If nothing works out try this:
Have a look in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224029
Download CWM Recovery 6.0.2.8 ODIN Package and flash it in "Download Mode" the regular way (AriesVE.ops and onepackage).
Then maybe you are able to enter Recovery Mode again...
This might be not your problem, but you could give it a try:
Some people had issues with rebooting in recovery, so there is a fix in this post

Samsung note 3 n9005 bricked

Hi:
Firstly, I want't to introduce myself, my name is Antonio and I'm a newbee in this forum. I want to apologize about my english, it's poor but I'm trying to improve it.
I need your help. I had a Samsunh note 3 n9005 with broken motherboard, I bought one used on internet and I was swindled. It was bricked and the owner said me that it was easy to fix it.... Now i have two broken motherboards...
I have tried to unbricked it, the fact is that I can't put it on download mode by combo key, I have to use a usb Jig, and then the phone starts in download mode.
After this, I can flash stock roms with Odin, and the procces ends OK, but the phone dosn't start, and has a bootloop, it shows the first image "samsung note3 n9005", and in blue letters in up right corner show "entering recovery" and after a few seconds it reboots again and again...
I have tried a lot of stock roms but anyone works. I think is the procces always ends with an OK in Odin....
Can anyone help me?
Anybody
