I got a samsung galaxy s advance and tried updating it to jellybean. After the update was downloaded and i guess installed, it was restarting. Now it won't at all turn on, no logo nothing.. I tried going into recovery or download modes but the phone still doesn't respond.
Recharging it doesn't make a difference either.
What should I do to get it to at least light up again ?!

From the settings in the phone, check for updates then update, it downloaded then said it would restart
Are you sure you used the update file for I9070 or some other phone? And did you, by chance disturb the phone during the update?

I'm pretty sure it was the right update, all i did was wait for it to load and install, then after restarting i waited for half an hour and the phone didn't turn on, then i removed the battery and put it in again, still nothing

As I understand he used OTA update, so no chance he used some other phone firmware. If you have warranty just go to service center and told what happend.

I don't think it's bricked... Pull the battery and wait for about 5 seconds and try holding the power button + home. U should be able to get to recovery mode.

Hey guys, I'm having big problem and can't go to sleep
i tried flashing the new ROM (i've done it so many times that i wasn't scared of anything).... Rom installed the Kernel too and I cleaned cache after installation, but ! when i choose Restart Now option, it suddenly restarted (screen went black suddenly) and the BLANK___________________. :'(
Here are the things i did whole day :/
1-3Button's technique
2-Can't go in Download,Recovery Mode
3-Can't connect to PC
It's like a Plastic Toy now that has no functions
I don't even know what it is(Hard/Soft/Dead Bricked). I've read through web that it can b a SW/FW HangUp or Temporary Brick which can b fixed ?..
Please tell me how to fix this issue,I'm really nervous
Help would b appreciated...

try this to see if your phone can be forced to boot up..
remove the battery from phone
connect the phone to pc, and when the pc beeps put the battery right away..
I tried it on my mini since it can't powered on a few days ago. and it worked.

Doesn't matter if it beeps or not actually, my PC didn't beep too when I plug the phone but I just put the battery back on and it booted.
I'm afraid your mini is indeed bricked.
You can try a USB jig or "Jtag (correct me if I'm wrong)..

To me, it looks like it needs to be sent back to Samsung. See if you can get it fixed under warranty, if not you'll have to pay. Good luck.

Hi dheeraj, is it possible that an empty or totally dead battery could prevent your phone from "memorizing" the flashing you do with Odin, so to send the device always in boot loop? I'm asking this since I'm having the same problem that the user who opened this thread has described, even if with a GT-S6500. It can only go into download mode, but not into recovery mode (could it be soft bricked?). I don't know what the previous owner did, but I'm trying to resurrect the phone. Thanks in advance for your help.

thought your problem got solved
no it cannot happen that without battery the memory would be washed out as it is written on a storage kind of device
what you can do is just flash a four package firmware through odin (phone, pda, csc etc. slots filled)
let the phone reboots on it own, after rebooting the mobile will automatically go into stock recovery and will do some processing and you would be done
I installed jelly bean , but I want to go back to gingerbread
I downloaded the update package from samsung updates
however there is some problem, iam stuck at boot screen
I cant clear catch or reformat too
I did exactly how I done when installed jelly bean as indicated
I don't really understand what you meant by "inst as indt".
Try flashing it again using the guide. If that doesn't work reboot in recovery and do a full wipe or try to recover from a back up if you have one.

It was the I9070 JB which was upgraded by a stupid mobile repairer. I tried downgrading it to GB for I9070P and it was successful. But when it re-booted, it never went past the start up screen for 15 mins and then when I tried removing the battery and starting again, it never responded. Now I'll have to send it to Dubai to get it repaired, since it was purchased from there and India Service center doesn't cover International Warranty.

it should be the only I9070.. you had it "hard bricked"..
