Pls can anyone help me im sooooo desperate. i just upgraded my fone via kies but after upgrade my fone is now blank, i cant use it anymore. pls hell. did i brick my fone??? can i bring it to life again??
You should try to reinstall the stock firmware. First see if you can get into download mode. Two ways, while your phone is off, hold down volume, the home button, and power button together till you get a yellow sign that has a digging android. If that don't work, other way is to take battery out, hold down volume, home button, and power together and reinsert the battery. Once you get to that stage, use Odin to reinstall your firmware.

shud all my apps be restored?? or back to square 1?
Well seeing as though you updated via kies, all your apps are deleted. I would just start fresh and back to stock. After that I would install a custom rom from the forums here, in my opinion, these rom makers do a great job making Roms that will make your phone be a phone and more

I wouldn't really say you bricked your phone. If you can get into download mode you are clear and your phone can come back to life. Just so you know.

i tried doing the download mode but i cant get to that
Two choices return phone to Samsung saying broke under Kies update .
Or use recovery jig and flash stock firmware this is an unofficial method that will invalidate your warranty .

i got the yellow digging but my fone is not connected to my pc. i turned it off again. so should i connect my fone via usb to my pc? then press again the 3 bttons?
Sorry went to bed, just woke up. Anyways download the stock firmware for your phone. Make sure you download the right one. Meaning if you have the i9000M, download i9000M, or if you have i9000T, download i9000T. If you check behind your battery you'll.find your model. I don't think it really matters, I mean your just gonna flash another rom once your phone is back to life for sure. ;-)

See response in other thread:
If you are 100% sure you cannot enter download mode you really have a problem. Did you try checking the battery? And if you are 100% sure - search the forum, there's some posts about using a JIG to fix it, but most seem to have gone back to Samsung afaik...
What did you do to get your phone in this mode?! Give is some more info on what happened...
Thanks for your fast reply, please see the below details

Try removing the battery and charge cable for a while (at least 30 minutes or so). I've not heard this happened before... and try charging with another cable and/or with another charger (for instance a laptop or some other usb device)...

Never install mods, addons, ROMs, kernels or anything made for whole Another phone.
Yes, that's the problem. I'm very sorry to tell you but you just destroyed your phone's boot.img by installing wrong one. And the wrong boot.img wont let you do anything on your phone. There's no way you could enter to recovery or download mode or anything.
I have no idea about the JIG thing but when I hard bricked my phone, I took it to the reseller and got it fixed for free of charge
Is there a golden card method
Any idea if there is a golden card method to create an boot image to let the phone start again

Your phone is kind of dead now. You can't push a boot image to it 'cause computer doesn't recognize it properly. Bricked means your phone is just as useful as a brick. It wont turn on in any way and there's nothing else your phone would do.
The JIG costs only 2$ , if that doesn't get u into download mod then u can only revive ur phone with JTAG .

Any details about this 2 methods???
JIG on ebay...

My advice is go see if u can repair it for free (warranty) , if not u can try the JIG to get u into download mode so u can flash via Odin (there are a lot of clips about JIGs on youtube) , if all that doesn't work JTAG is ur only hope (also there are videos about it on youtube).

Better Soluction
It ocurred me and I go to Movistar Shop and I said that it doesn't boot and I don't know anything and they give me another one with the guarantee.
Try and if not try with JIG ,
me 2, think you installed the wrong rom on the wrong phone..MIUEI rom is not out for the GT I9001, when i bricked my phone =1 medecin= www.broodplank.net (and check how to unbrick your I9001-article)
As the partition layout and even the filesystem is totally different I think you wiped away your bootloader and maybe also radio firmware. If this is your actual situation, it is ver very VERY unlikely you will get your phone alive with a jig. Don't know the partition layout of a 9000 but even the hardware is completely different. Not nucb hope left, very sorry.

Hi Guys,
**Alert : Noob Here **
So, I decided to install some custom ROM on my Samsung Galaxy ACE S5830 and went through loads of information on how to do so. So this is what i did - ( from the start) :
a. Rooted the phone ( from a file called upd_1.zip ( 925KB) by going into recovery mode)..
It worked fine and my phone got a 'superuser' on the application drawer.
b. Installed 'recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix' using the recover mode. ( had to rename the file to update.zip coz the recovery mode was not reading the file ).. Worked properly as i got another application 'CWM' on my application drawer.
c. Now, just to check if my CWM was doing good in recovery mode, I switched off my cell, pressed 'vol-up + home + power-up' button to go into recovery mode.. I got some text on the top left corner of the screen with a SAMSUNG logo on the screen...and then it got stuck there...i waited for some time but nothing happened.
I removed the battery and tried switching on the phone normally ( just power-up the phone ) (just to ensure that it still works) and now, the phone is stuck with the SAMSUNG logo on the screen and doesn't work at all !!!
I am confused as after installing CWM, i did switch on the phone normally and it seemed to work fine..but now after I pressed 'vol-up + home + power-up' buttons, its stuck at the black screen with LOGO on it...
Any clue what's wrong with my phone??

You have used the wrong combo & have got yourself in the ram dump mode. The combination for recovery is, power + home button simultaneously & when something appears on phone, leave the power button while still holding the home key. Btw, no need to announce a high alert that you're a noob or such unless you're a badass
@ Ppl : Read what he's done carefully & reply if you know. Don't confuse the newbies.

Haha - the alert was just for the experienced guys to not use 'experts terminology' while explaining me what to do
Well, I tried following your method. I help d home button and the power button and let go for the power button when 'SAMSUNG' appeared while still holding the home button...but nothing happened.. The screen is stuck at that particular screen itself with no progress..
Should I flash my phone with stock firmware as advised by the guys above?
GUYS !!!
I restored the phone with stock ROM and a tutorial from another member about flashing stock ROM from ODIN got my cell working !!!
Yayyy !!!
( I was **** scared when read the line that if the flashing fails in first 15 secs ( boot loader flashing) my phone is bricked ):fingers-crossed:
Thanks a lot guys - all of you ...for the help...:victory:
**BUT**
I still want to instal custom ROM to my device...and since I ve committed a mistake in he past doing so, will any1 would be kind enough to show me the path ( link ) to enlightenment ( installing custom ROM from the start ) ?
So,
I thought its better to search for things ranther than troubling you guys to spoon feed me everything...
For rooting, I am gonna try doing everything from the start and be a little more attentive.
1. So, from hubix's guide, I downloaded the below mentioned bold file:
"SuperOneClick 2.3.3 (for 2.2> firmwares) or Universal Gingerbread Root/Unroot (for 2.3< firmwares)"
2. To install CWM , i downloaded the following file :
"ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.6 (Fixed!)""
3. Since my phone Android version is 2.3.6, I would go with 'Db' method of rooting :
"Db. Rooting for 2.3.x (NEW METHOD!):
Download file called universal_gb_root_v25.zip and copy it to your sdcard
Turn off your phone
Press POWER+HOME BUTTON
Select update from sdcard, select the file universal_gb_root_v25.zip
After the update completed - reboot
Now you have rooted S5830"
4. Then, follow up the the Flash Custom Recovery steps from the same page, which is as follows :
Put recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace.zip into SD Card
Turn off your phone
Press POWER+HOME BUTTON
Select Update Zip From SD-Card option. [If you are on previous version of CWM recovery then you might need to select Install Zip From SD Card and then Choose Zip From SD Card Option simultaneously. ]
Select recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace.zip and flash it
Reboot your device
Please let me know if I am correct or will following these steps would screw up my phone again ???
You're correct.

Cool..now coming to installing the custom ROM, can I install any custom ROM ? Because in few of the ROM's, there is something mentioned as
"This Rom is based on CyanogenMod 10.1 for Galaxy Ace"
What is this supposed to mean ?? Are there any other parameters which decide on the factors on what ROMs can be costumed installed??
( for example in some ROM i also saw something to do with ext partition )

I probably can't. But you can try as followed:
- Install Samsung drivers + start ODIN (You probably already have)
- Pull out battery
- Put in USB cable (I'm sure you have tried another cable yet)
- Press key combo for download mode (Vol down + power + home)
- Put the battery back in while still holding down the keys.
Hi everybody !
Yesterday, I swapped the sd cards of my gs+ but the phone didn't boot and stayed at the boot animation (CM10.1). So, I tried to restock it but Odin stayed at the AMSS download. I tried to install many other stock ROM but it was stuck at this thread. Today, I retry to flash CWM recovery and stock ROM but now it block at setup connection. I don't know why because I put the ariesve.ops file in the good section.
I have already bricked my phone many times but the restock worked fine.
What can I do ? Please help me I love my I9001 ! :crying:
Thanks a lot for your answers !

The best solutions is to go to a Samsung Service. I had bricked my phone to and i paid 100 $ and they changed my motherboard. Or go to a professional service.

The problem you had was caused by ODIN. I've had it to. You have to use a specific version of ODIN and that version is the one you finde in the recovery package you've just used. So beware in the future!

From now on you can use this http://easyandroidsolutions.blogspot.ro/2012/10/recover-samsung-galaxy-s-plus-i9001.html
It is very important to use correct version of ODIN, happened to me too with my first flashing

If you successfully flashed cwm via odin. switch off the phone. take out the battery and insert it back.
Connect your data cable to your phone(not to pc). Then press and hold volume up button and switch on the phone. When the samsung logo appears leave the button. When Samsung galaxy s plus logo appears, just tap the menu button(left touch button). You will get in to the CWM recovery. Then wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvic cache (in advanced menu). Then flash a new rom.
Hey,
Tried to root my galaxy s using this guide:
theandroidsoul .com/how-to-root-xwjw1-firmware-for-galaxy-s-i9000/

Is there anyway without losing my app data and such? The whole reason I wanted root was to backup my phone.

find cf root, or use semaphore kernel
bootloop becoz wrong kernel flashed, knowing ur build number is important to determine which cf root u needed
if u find da suitable kernel, bootloop will fix by flashing thru odin, but ur sayin u dont even know da version here, so it become more difficult.
here list of cf root

same problem but a bit different
Hello people,
Uhm i am completely new to the forum but i got the same problem.
I somehow got stuck in a boot loop with my sgs gt-i9000.
It gets to the giant S logo and stays there then it starts buzzing now and then.
and i cant get into download mode or recovery mode.
i have been trying everything for almost half a year now and i still cant get in.
maybe you can help?
thanks in advance.

im sure
The 3 button combo is not working, we tried a jig 2 and i tried multiple 3-BC repairs using Odin, Heimdall and KIES.
and yes i am sure it is a Samsung galaxy S GT-I9000.

Try this:
This feature is great for people who
a) Have a bad KIES flash
b) Stuff up their phone somehow
c) Accidentally flash something dodgy via ODIN
d) Some other random occurence
To test this feature you just need to start with your phone turned off... Best way to be sure is to remove the battery.
Then
1. Put battery back in
2. Press and hold Volume Up + Home Key
3. Continue holding those buttons and then press and hold power button.
4. When you see the logo pop up release power button ONLY
5. Keep holding two buttons from step 2 until you enter recovery mode.
I hope this helps!
Nope not one button combo works i tried it all.

DUDE!!!! I have the samsung galaxy s4 att sgh-i337. I recently just tried flashing uxylon from the goo manager . I did standard procedure of factory reset twice, then cache and dalvik cache wipe two times. Just so happens as Im waiting for uXylon or whatever its spelled to flash , my phone decides to stay at the boot screen.... At this point im sweating. After a few minutes i take the battery out and restart regularly . I restart and wait 10 minutes thinking it still may flash uxylon. NOPE. :,( Now im getting really scared. I try to the custom recovery mode.... no twrp OR SYSTEM RECOVERY .... Now Im Falling over scared. I take out battery try again. power , home , volume up , repeatedly . It wont even say booting recovery it only says recovery options then black screen untill I release the buttons. . Then bootloop to logo no recovery. Now Im frantic. I look up adam outler's page on ODIN recovery with stock firmware and ddownload ucuadml and ucuamdb not knwoing which , if either of them , would flash through ODIN. So im frantically flying through the web for 3 hours searching some magic button combo or something that may help me just reach my recoveries in twrp (since the computer would not recognize even in download mode) . I look everywhere. EVERYWHERE. This point i figure i can try odin and its my last chance. Im waiting on the firware to download right now to this second as I type . Somehow God magically guided me to this page though ... because I did about 300 google searches looking for a way to get my twrp back and use my nandroids. NOTHING until now..... I run across this post and move down and come across your post. "have you tried this button combo ? " I read the next comment . "NO no combos worked." Clciked forward a few pages and found nothing. Im giving up ... its over... Either ODIN will work and flash my stock firmware or I will have no way to turn my paper weight back into a cell phone. As Im click the back button i come across THIS post YOUR actual comment. I read it and think ... I didnt try that. I tried it the way you posted. Home + volume up ... nothing happens .... I add the power button and it boots same way as before booloop. Im infuriated..... I press it again the way you posted and suddenly ..... TWRP's beautiful blue screen pops up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I rostroe my cleanROM 1.0 nand and Im back up . I seriously just want to thank you for posting this little comment that you probably thought would never really help anyone at all. This truly TRULY just saved my phone . I mean you just saved my day , brother. Seriously thank you . Im so happy right now it's like I bought a brand new s4 lol. Thank you so much buddy. Real talk. :highfive:
