Phone is year old (out of warranty) , I have seen in many post that Samsung store will ask to change the motherboard (will cost nearby 50percent of phone cos) unadvisable.

Thanks for the reply, yes i have correct files, still will try yours, (once it will boot then further i will deal easily) currently have given the phone to a local repair person, he said something is wonky with IC chip so ROM is not flashing properly.
Would try your thing soon, thanks!

I dont think you can do it with stock rom.
Try zeus rom.
You can also use an app to do it.
It is called rebooter.

If he's on stock he probably doesn't have recovery or root access
He's rooted but i don't think he has recovery?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859515
So IF he boot recovery it will just factory reset.
Made that mistake myself.

If you are rooted and have no recovery just get Rom manager from play store and install recovery from it, the app also has a reboot in recovery option

This is the easiest way.
Procedure for our newbie friend.
1. Download rom manager from play store.
2. Open the apps then click flash ClockworkMod Recovery (need internet connection to flash)
3. After flashing click Reboot into recovery
I suggest that use the old clockworkmod(Version 5.0.2.6) because base from my experienced i always have a hard time rebooting using the touch version. It's like there is a time out, i ended always into bootloop and it takes an hour to reboot.

Bricked or What?? And how to fix. Help Please!!!!

This isnt my phone but me and my friend successfully rooted his galaxy mini but when we flashed CWM we must have used the wrong one from the app and bricked the device or something as the device wont turn on. Is this bricked and if it is how can we unbrick it.
Thanks
If you can go into the download mode just flash stock rom through odin

The wrong one from an app... It sounds like Rom Manager. If I'm right, then USB jig or service.

Thanks guys, will the phone still flash even if the phone doesnt tirn on? I will try flashing with odin this weekend but if it doesnt work do you think samsung could fix it?

To find out if it's a "soft brick" or "hard brick" try going to "Download Mode" on the Mini. Do this by turning off the phone simultaneously pressing the Volume Down + Power + Home. When prompted, press Volume Up to confirm.
If there is a Download Mode, the phone just got a "soft brick" which means you can fix it on your own. If there is no Download mode, you're pretty much screwed.
IF there is a Download Mode, then it means you can still flash a ROM/firmware via ODIN. But I suggest flashing the right CF root kernel for the Samsung Galaxy Mini first. That will probably fix the phone's failure to boot. If it doesn't reboot properly after rooting, then I would suggest you flash a new ROM/firmware instead.

Oh, if there is a Download Mode just as I explained above, you can still flash any ROM or kernel via ODIN. Cheers!

If it seems like you can't get into download mode, there is a trick (it worked for me, when I thought my phone was hard-bricked, but obviously TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Get a friend to help - it's almost impossible to do this by yourself (unless you were born with three hands) :silly:
Take out the battery, sim-card and SD-card
While holding down all three buttons for download mode (Volume Down + Power + Home), get your friend to insert the battery.
Keep holding down all three buttons until you see download mode (can take up to a couple of minutes).
If it doesn't work at first, keep trying - it took me about three of four tries before that lovely sign came up :laugh:
Good luck.
PS: sorry I really can't remember where I got this from, so can't give due credit. If I'm plagiarising anyone, please let me know and I'll fix it.

After flashing the rom, if your phone doesn't boot, take off the battery, put it back, go to recovery & do a factory reset & also wipe dalvic cache. Try booting then...

Did it , same not working , stucking at that screen.
reflash your rom, but before doing that do a backup in recovery mode. that way you wont lose any data...
Re flash the rom, if stock rom flash it with odin, if custom rom than via clockwork.
Dont panic unless you can go into download mode.
Download mode is very helpful.

n7000 won't turn on, pc doesn't recognize after CWM FLASH

So, i get galaxy note n7000. It was running 4.0.4 stock. I flashed kernel with odin with root + cwm. Then i wiped data, tried to install rom (it was miui 3.9.6 from here) progress stucked on /formatting system. Then screen went black and phone won't turn on after that. I founded one user from russian forum who had same issue, idk how he fixed it..
So, phone won't turn on , go to recovery, pc can't see it. hardly bricked? By cwm flash..?
Phone has got warranty. Maybe i should bring it to them? Could they know that phone was rooted?
Seems i have the same problem like here...

cwm 5. I heard about cwm zip, but no. I got cwm by installing custom kernel in odin. Or you're talking about something else?
And yes, i'm soon going to the carrier where this phone was bought. Which is the best version to tell? OTA update?
Yeah, just say it failed doing ota update.
