I used to love your ROMs for my old Touch HD.. good to see you now have a Galaxy S!
Not so sure from your posts above what method you have tried. When are you trying to connect Odin? You need to be in Download Mode first, fire up Odin, then connect your phone...
Is this what you are doing?
Also, which version of Odin you using? In Win7 you may need to right click and run as administrator?
The best way is to look on the odin how to here in forum

Brother, use Odin3 v1.7 from my signature & see if it detects? A lot of guys have recovered their phones using 1.7. trust me.
pull the battery
wait a few seconds
put the battery back in
hold vol-down + power + home
You should get into download mode
connect the phone physically to the pc
flash a ROM or a kernel or whatever you desire
I wish you good luck^^
Close any kies process running in background and try again

The jig most likely wont work if the phone is completely dead, you could try a hairdryer it seems to work sometimes. Otherwise its back to samsung.

I don't get it. When i try and get my vibrant into dl mode using this method -
Step 1.) Open Odin.exe and plug a usb cable to your computer that will connect to your phone (do not plug it in to the phone yet, just the computer)
Step 2.) *Added this: Power off your phone before trying to get into download mode, and then....*
Hold down both volume buttons at the same time and while holding them down plug the usb into your phone.
- all that happes is a green battery bar comes up. Tried it on my roommates vibrant and it went straight into dl mode. WTF?
*EDIT - Phone is rooted and running the factory rom. I'm trying to install the JI6 update found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803492
I really don't understand why its so hard for people to get into DL mode.
Unless your soft bricked you don't need to go through all these steps.
'adb reboot download ' in adb is all you need to do.

Do You have the samsung drivers installed to use odin ?

It's really not hard to learn how to use ADB.

yeah, i installed the drivers last night along with odin. we were using odin to install the JI6 update and it stopped midway. the fact that we can only ude adb to get into download mode is frustrating since windows no longer recognizes my phone
Yeah I'm not familiar with adb enough to advise but you should be able to find what you need on this site if I find anything I think can help I'll post back good luck man

now im soft bricked and i cant even go into download mode? what do i do.

ok guys, i have unbricked my vibrant before after the OTA update about 5 weeks ago. i am pretty new at this smart phone stuff, but was pleasantly surprised i was able to get odin to fix the brick. about an hour ago i launched the stupid VooDoo in the OCLF app and the phone now will go as far as the animated galaxy "S", then go blank. i attempted the Odin flash about 5 times now with the same result each time, just boots up past the vibrant screen to galaxy S then goes blank. when the phone restarts or reboots after the odin flash a message in red reads DATA WIPE FAILED between a few yellow text lines. when i try to reinstall packages through boot screen i get the same message i got after the OTA brick, E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip now the phone was rooted with the OCLF before i launched VooDoo. can somebody help me out?!?

As mentioned in a million threads, you need to flash Eugene's "froyo that doesn't brick." Then flash whatever firmware you want.
flashed the froyo successfully from eugene. cool set up, major issue though, i have no application storage now. there are a ton of apps in manage apps and i cannot uninstall any of them. can i fix this somehow??
i'm going to try flashing froyo back in it so it works, not select repartition. then restart odin, select repartition and flash the old vj12 rar and see if that works
Never seemed to get the answer to this. What is the purpose of "Eugene's froyo that doesn't brick?"
Why do some people suggest flashing that, before they odin?
Did eugene take everything down from xda, I can't even find that anymore.
i actually found what i though was the froyo that doesn't brick but it was actually his jk2 version. i clicked Eugene's link on one of his posts and it took me to his site and thats were i got it. i did some searching and actually found the "froyo that doesn't brick", it fixed my baby! i couldn't do anything once flashed but i was then able to flash back to jdf then j16 and all is well. i have flashed like 10 roms into her since this weekend with success, i am back to running j16 with some extras as the games i play don't support 2.2

When i'm in download mode, it doesn't recognize it. When i'm in recovery mode, Odin recognizes it. If i turn my phone on and plug it in, my pc recognizes it, drivers are ok.
Any answers, i could really use the help
what version of Odin are you running? not that it should matter. try pulling the batt, hold volume up and down, insert batt while volume buttons are pressed then plug in USB and wait for it to go into download mode then release buttons. see if Odin recognizes it then.
try a different cable too if above doesn't work
Turn your phone off open odin hold down volume up and down,now plug in the usb this will get you into dl mode now you need to flash Froyo ~~~That does not Brick! rom with odin. Right after you flash that get back into download mode open odin first then with the phone ( power the phone off give it a min, hold down the volume up and down keys, now insert the usb cord BAM download mode) flash back to whatever rom you want.
Hey I'm not so tech sabby could you help wit steps to do the same cuz kind of have same prob. With voodoo

Simply solution to fix, just use odin to flash back to stock on that screen.
Just make sure you place all the files on odin first and then plug in your phone.
Should be back to perfect working condition.

Is there a little chance to repear it without SAV ?

hi
i have got the same problem.
alexdumitru your problem is not same. the link you shared they mention to solve softbrick devices. but me and zepretender got a hardbrick devices. it means you can not go to download mode. so i think only they solve it with changing mainboard or damaged parts.
is there any other new ways for solve hard brick devices??
That's a hard brick too. The emmc is damaged, though it enters download mode, it's true. But I've seen cases where the device entered download mode, though the screen remained blank. So try to enter download mode, even if the screen is still blank and then connect it to the computer. If Odin recognizes it, you might be lucky.
i´ve sufferd the same problem. i´ve bricked my note - no recovery, no download mode. i tried to go to download mode, but odin didn´t recognized usb connection. My phone was dead. I´ve sent my device to samsung for warranty repair.
Hmm I didn't know that.actually I hv tried everythng but odin didn't recgnse it. I will try your suggest ofcourse.its worth to try. So whle usb cble connected should I try to go to download mode? In some topics they mentioning about use another usb cable.which is dfferent than normal ones. Do u know anythng about it?

If your phone is "superbricked" hard brick, then a JIG won't work because it damages the eMMc chip. But, you can make your own JIG. You can get stuff at your local electronics store, like Radioshack. I don't know where you live though, haha!
Even if the JIG gets you in download mode though, if Odin fails at factoryfs.img or NAND write start then it will still be bricked.
