Hi there, i want to ask some help to you. This is very sucks for me, when i need to communicate with my family and my friends, my phone was had a probelm. First probelm is my phone was bootloop, it was booted just until "Samsung Galaxy S III Mini" logo. Second probelm, after that bootloop, my phone was restarted and go back again to boot logo, and then restart again and go back again to boot logo, again and again continuosly until my battery was drain down. And the last probelm, after i found that probelm then i try to flash my phone to newest version firmware, when my phone enter to download mode and try to connected to my PC, it not recognized with my PC, indeed there's no notification that the device is not recognized (normally if you connect the device to PC and not recognized, will show notification "USB Not Recognized"). I try to connect again on Windows 7 (My PC was dual-booted Windows 10 and Windows 7), there's no changed, still not recognize and not showing notification. And then, an hour ago before i posted this post, i try to connect and flashing in my friends PC, but still not recognized. I think there's no probelm with my USB cable, when i use to charging, it still working.
And then i really really really need your solution, PLEASE help me, i dont have much money to repair my phone because i just have IDR 10000 (converted to USD is just $0,95) and my guarantee is expired. Soon i will face the National Exam and i dont want lost my focus to that. I hope i can get the best solution quickly. Thanks for your attention, sorry for my badly english. :crying::crying:

just a little side note....where did u get windows 10.......good luck with the phone
Hi whith model s3mimi you have i8190x or 8200? If 8190 do that:
1.Download drivers and Odin from novafusion.pl/downloads, there is section s3mini->extras and heres Drivers and Odin.
Download stock rom from sammobile or samsung-firmware for your specific model and location.
2.Install drivers, next unzip to any location Odin and downloaded rom, but in the same place both.
3.Take out battery and put in the phone, then push Vol- Home Power buttons until you see Download mode, then clik Vol+ to enter it.
4.Open Odin and select PDA and find unpacked stock rom then connect phone to usb. Make sure that ONLY Auto Reboot*and*F.Reset Time are selected.
Your pc find drivers and Odin show to you in first box in left corner info about port:comX, nevermind what number of Com but you must see info about Com port. Its important.
5.Pull button Start and wait few minutes. On finish your phone restart, you dont need to disconnect from pc. Now wait 5-8min, in this time you see only logo samsung and thats all. After logo you see configuration panel and voila.
If not see configuration screen after 8min, pull out batt, put in, go to recovery by Vol+ Home Power Buttons and clean cache, next do factory reset. Now might be work, but after restart you still wait max 8min until see configuration screen.

Put the phone back into download mode and flash with another firmware and Odin 1.0
I just had the same problem, took out the battery, restarted into download mode and updated successfully using kies.
i cant get into download mode, i have only been albe to do that through ADB. And when i plug my SGS into my pc nothing happens, it just has the same picture on the phone...
It seems your phone is stuck in download mode:
- remove phone from pc
- restart odin
- mark reboot phone
- connect phone
- if the com port shows up you can hit "start"
hope this works
When this this advice from the (also) Austrian Guy don't help but the Batterie out and wait 10 Seconds.. And then go back to download mode should help..
It's probably bricked like mine, I mean, if you were unable to access download mode with the button combination (Vol-/Home/Power) and you only had access to download mode with adb. I just sent mine to repair today.
My recommendation to everyone is that NEVER flash your phone if you are unable to access download mode with the button combination as it will be rather hard to adb reboot it again to download mode if you don't have access with adb to it
Probably someone comes to say that "I have flashed many times with adb reboot download method and my phone is still fine" but even so, it is not safe to do that.
Hi there I got a Samsung captivate SGH-I897 and I got a custom rom installer from Rom Kitchen. I wanted to go back to stock rom but once i get into download mode the phone not loading the rom ODIN stays in DO NOT TURN OFF THE TARGET!please help get out of that and use my phone again!the Base Rom i Used on custom rom is XWJS5 v9.6 with Firebird Kernel
Thank you for your time
close odin 1 click, unplug phone leave it in d/l mode, open odin plug phone back into usb, you should see a com port then like 7 or 3 or something. then hit start. Sometimes I have to repeat process 3 or 4 times before odin works right. if it isnt doing anything unplug it, remove battery put battery back in hold volume buttons down when u plug it back into usb and should go back to d/l mode. make sure odin is opened first.
I ve tried all these the problem is that I am at Phone - ! - PC and its hard to get to Download Mode but after many tries I all of a sudden I get in that mode then nothing more I can do!
Does Odin recognize the phone when you connect the USB cable when your phone is in download mode? Also which OS is your PC running? I was having an issue with Odin not pushing the stock rom and I had to start it as administrator in Win 7 to get it to work.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
Yes DOES recognize the phone but not pushing the ROM on it!I am on Windows 7 and i always run ODIN as Admin!
Any ideas?
I've heard Odin can be flaky and may take several attempts before it will work. I would keep trying. Also possibly change which USB port you are using on your computer and see if that helps. I was in this exact same scenario last week. I would turn on the phone and get the computer/phone/exclamation point of death screen. I couldn't get the phone to boot or into download mode without using a JIG. Finally on about the third try Odin worked for me. I started Odin as admin and almost as soon as I plugged in the phone to USB I hit flash and it worked. Best of luck...
Odin is not flaky. It works if you follow instructions. It's the user's fault, not the software.
Anyway, this is probably the ten millionth time I've posted this in the last hour, but here's how to get into download mode if nothing else works. If this doesn't work, you hard bricked your phone and would need a JTAG flash.

Unplug the phone from the computer and remove the battery, SIM, and external SD if there is one.
1. Open Odin one click.
2. Plug the phone in (without the battery in the phone). Do not press any buttons, especially the power button.
3. Press and hold the volume rocker (holding down both volume up and down).
4. Insert the battery while holding the volume rocker.
5. The phone should boot into download mode. You can then let go of the volume rocker.
Now wait 30 seconds (if you press "Start" too soon, it will not work). Then press "Start" and your flash should finish.

my phone is in download mode but odin hung once i unplugge and plugged back in ever since phone isnt see by odin or pc?
Yes, as I stated in my post above; you must reboot your phone every single time you go into Download mode. What I mean by that is that if you go into Download mode and plug your phone in, then unplug it, you cannot plug your phone back in unless you reboot your phone.

Didn't realize that you weren't the OP. Regardless, I was referring to you.
Anyway, this is a more serious case than I thought. Have you used the AIO Captivate Tool? If so, did you install the LibUSB drivers? Those will disable Odin from working (I'm probably going to PM Bay_wolf sometime soon about that...).
Do get everything working again:
Plug the phone in while it's in Download mode. Open the start menu, right click on "Computer", and click "Manage". In the left sidebar, select "Device Manager".
There will be a dropdown labeled "LibUSB Devices" or something with the word libusb in it. Find that dropdown, right click the Samsung USB Device or whatever it's called and select "Update Driver Software...". Then select "Search automatically for updated driver software."
An alternative is to just use the "Flash to Stock" option in the AIO tool. This and the above is assuming that you had used the AIO Tool and installed the LibUSB drivers previously. If you have not, then you may have to try and re-install the Samsung drivers. If that doesn't work, ask to borrow a friend's computer for now to flash back to stock, because this happened to me before and I didn't know how to fix it, but I was about to re-install Windows anyway so I never figured it out.
im on xp and pc sees my cappy but odin execution 1.00 is stuck on examing files is there another version i should be trying? if it helps this is what i was trying to get off my phone when the crap hit the fan http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=940330 and i tried to put paragon 6 on and it kept erring because i needed to do a odin job first on it
I finally managed to turn my phone on last nigh by doing the following:
1.Open Odin
2.Get in download mode (it took me many tries but finally I made it)
3.Disconnect phone
4.Reconnect phone
5.Choose the PIT file
6.Uncheck Auto Reboot
7.Hit Start
After that I took out the battery put it back again and power up.the phone will boot but not show the main screen it will only vibrate!then i used the AIO pack to put it back in recovery mode and i reinstalled the Custom Firmware I was using. Now is on and working again!I really dont know now if I can flash back to stock!

did you use thee pitfile came with odin in the all in one or did you select another pitfile if you used a differnt pitfile then comes with odin 1.00 that might be my issue
No no I dont use this on I use one I had on my PC.
I think the problem is a write protection as I can see when i connect the phone it displays a CDROM drive when I click on it, opens ok but I cant write anything on the phone.and every time I try to use ODIN to flash to stock it stays in DO NOT TURN OFF THE TARGET and nothing happens!
Any ideas on how to get back to stock firmware?
Hello,
I just bought for my mother a galaxy mini. Now i root the phone with superoneclick. i downloaded rom manager and clicked on the first option flash clockwork mod, there was a popup and i clicked the first one accidentatily and after a few seconds he said he was finished.. i turned of the phone and know he deosn't do anything at all no recovery, no download mode please help me fix the phone!
----
Edit
I just discovered that when i have plugged in the phone to the computer, and i press the buttons for recovery mode then the computer recognize my phone. Can i do anything now to make my phone work again, it seems like my display doesn't turn on by a wrong rom installed
bricked. (not very sure,cwm frm rom manager is partially supported now. work in progress)
only if ur able to get into download mode u'll be able to flash a rom...
http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...-unbrick-mini-s5570-bricked-black-screen.html
That is a nice, nasty, hard brick.
If you are getting into download mode and ODIN running on the PC recognises your phone, you are lucky - get any stock rom from samfirmware and flash it first. Use the phone for a few days more, and then, you can upgrade to new 7.1 cyanogenmod ROM.
try going into download mode by holding home and vol down the connect the usb 2 ur phone
or try holding vol up+down home and power
if it doesnt work try getting a jig from ebay
get a jig its the only way to fix it
SSC (Samsung Service Center) is the only way.
Congrats, next time read before doing anything.
Hey guys,
my mother wanted to update her phone with kies and while updating the laptop reboots and now the phone doenst boot anymore..
Also the laptop doesnt recognize the phone anymore...
The only thing you can see on the phone is an image of a usb stick and a pc...
Like the phone is trying to say that i have to connect the phone with the laptop..
But my laptop doesnt recognize it...
Now what to do?
ty for your reaction
It means the update failed. Can the phone boots into download mode? You have to flash a stock rom via Odin.
Hello mate.
In order to fix you're phone do the following
1) Put you're phone to charge for a couple of hours just to make sure you have enough battery for the installation process.
2) Plug it into you're computer and when it get to the point where it prompts you to connect to pc, press and hold "Volume Down & Power Button" until you get to Download mode. Then open up kies and you should be able to continue installation of the update.
I hope everything goes well for you!
ty guys, it worked
I read some tutorials here in the forum on how to root your phone! I was able to successfully perform. Until that point, my phone was still booting android 2.3.3 (ginger) that came from the factory.
Then I went into recovery mode and installed 5.0.2.6 ClockworkMod! Installed successfully too! Then I tried to install some roms modified for the S5830I, as read on the internet that the roms of them are compatible with the S5830C.
I tried the first version of the ICS lite and basic, the two images, when installed by clockwork gave no error messages in the terminal, but when you restart the machine could not boot the system.
I installed and booted each version of the ICS modificias separately. I tried other roms. gave some errors "gep.prop" because of non-compatibility with my model. In the end, tried to use the method with ODIN, but my phone can not boot the mod download! Yes, I tried all the tutorials!
I know I need to press the home button, power, volume down (...) I tried to use the ADB "adb reboot download", and also got no answer!! So ODIN does not detect my phone! Percebir also that the recovery mode always resets to a version e3 (I think it is the factory default recory) with this recovery can not seem to wipe the cache or data.
Really broke my phone? Why the hell i can get a good status of installation with the roms but can not boot them?
It's a classic
Yes you did break your phone, unless you try this last trick:
take out your battery
wait until your phone is completly uncharged internally (an hour or so)
go to a hot place like a radiator or somthing like that
do the "download mode trick" with the battery still out
put the battery in while still holding the buttons
repeate if it doesnt work
when you get the downloadmode, you are a lucky person. the rest you seem to know how it works... simply flash a new rom
I hope it works!
