Ok, so before, I went to install the Simple Galaxy rom, and i forgot to disable VooDoo .. When I boot my phone, its tied together between the stock Samsung Galaxy X screen and the Auxura Rom (which i am came from + with the honeybread port)... I know im only soft bricked, so at least i know i can SOMEHOW fix this.. I can get into download mode and recovery, but when i got to recovery and choose install ZIP from Sd card, it tells me nothing is there. I tried factory reseting it, but no use. When i try to use Odin, I get <OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0).... Please guys, Im in BIG need of help..
Edit- I got Odin to work, Im going to see what happens next
Go to the vibrant toolbox sticky in the development section. I screwed up my phone for the first time ever yesterday with the same ROM and the program got me back to stock in 10 minutes and I've never even looked at Odin in my life. It's really user friendly. If you can get into download mode, this app will get you back to stock and rooted again. The longest part is waiting for it to download. Good luck, you'll be fine.

so i rooted my vibrant and was having issues with titanium back up constantly (like every 2 seconds) demanding su permissions. i decided to unroot and try to re-root but the phone now freezes at the galaxy S screen during bootup and eventually the screen goes black with only the 4 keys at the bottom lit.
i unrooted by using the "1-click root/unroot" app on the forums.
the rom was stock and the phone has never really been modified aside from being rooted and ryan's lag fix
thanks in advance
also---sorry for putting this in the wrong section, could a mod please move it to general? i wont make the mistake again
Not bricked. You will likely have to re-flash using ODIN. Search around and read up and you find out how to do it.
Which unroot app did you use?

that one....
i'm reading about odin now trying to figure out what to do, not really sure how this happened in the first place
prolly has to do with the lag fix and then you unrooting... but flashing back to stock through odin should fix all your problems and from what ive read and found out myself its almost imposible to brick this phone. but use odin and flash a stock rom or if you have access to clockwork try using the nandroid that someone posted here somewhere. another thing you can try is to root your phone again through stock recovery and that might fix your problems cause i think the lag fix has to have root to work and since you got rid of root and kept the lag fix you get stuck
I used odin and everything works now.
Thanks for the help!

I've recently installed Master Rom 1.1.4 JAC however I think I've made the mistake of flashing Vibrant_ AOSPish 1.2 & JAC & KING KERN the result is that I can not get past the launcher section of my phone or select anything because the UI is not responding. I've tried the 3 button thing to get to recovery and it's just not working for me after a million tries I gave up. At my wits end I came across one click root, (excellent to get to recovery mode)! now I'm stuck it won't let me get to SD section where my Rom are stored... I need Help? BTW I have a mac I know not good for this situation but what am I going to do.
Have you tried restoring to stock rom using odin?

No I have no Idea on how to use Odin what I've seen is that it can only be use if you have a PC, I have a mac with VM fusion but that does not work. I'm really close to just throwing the phone out the window -_-
You can't use someones computer? Don't throw the phone away, you can send it to me! Lol

OK.. so here is my story. i got my phone about a month ago. rooted it. worked great. last week my phone froze so i had to pull the battery, ive dont that before, but this time when i tuned it on it took me thru setup wizard. my apps were gone and i have 0 bytes. every time i turn it off and turn it back on i have to go through the set up wizard. i looked online for ways to go back to stock, but they require i download an app. but i cant because i have 0 bytes. please i just want this thing unrooted and back to normal. PLEASE HELP
Theres a thread in the development section that addresses this issue. Search 0.00. Fyi imo voodoo is not worth the drama, stock file system roms ftw, kk?

i cant get it to work i downloaded odin but am having problems with it
Odin will not fix your problem, rooting is not your problem. Look in the development section on this forum and run the voodoo uninstaller(automatic) boot into stock android recovery 2e, and wipe data/cache after you run voodoo uninstaller.

but what is voodoo??
i never installed voodoo
and in odin... icant locate the pda file or i just dont have it. when i find a link to install it brings up a blank page
This may be a dumb suggestion, but is it possible your SD card is loose in its socket?
I was trying to install the DJ05 modem.bin via odin, however, the phone will not boot. it shows a symbol of a phone caution sign and a computer. I have tried to reflash but to no avail. I have tried to flash back to DI01 but has not helped. I can boot into download mode but nothing else.
Did you use phone or pda. If you used phone, you are bricked
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
i used pda. I've done this in the past with no problems, however, this time for my friends phone it has done this.
try flashing in download mode again. I've got that problem before. I reflashed it with stock kernel, system and recovery then all things came back. ^^
Search Adrynalin he is a Mod on here that is Amazing with these phones. If he has time he will walk you through some steps that will get you back! Don't forget to buy him a beer!
The OP actually got everything sorted out on another forum. Turns out it was just as simple as removing the battery before plugging in and launching Odin
Link please! I'm in the same rut after flashing. :-(

I have a Vibrant and i was updating using samsung kies. I never rooted my phone or did and customize things to it. i was going through the updating process when samsung kies said that the update failed and to disconncet my phone. so i disconnected my phone (the screen said download mode and do not turn off target). now when i try to turn my phone on i get a black screen with a phone triangle and computer logo. it will not go in to recovery. cau u please help... thanks
hopefully there is a way to fix this without using odin
odin and download mode there is a thread in development about in the bible i think about unbricking a vibrant, its very hard to brick a vibrant completely, I have done so before, but you can recover via odin.
Your phone is not fully bricked. and your better off than me half the time
How were you trying to boot into recovery if you've never rooted or customized? Your phone is not completely bricked if its turning on so I'm sure there's a fix.

that should have everything you need, you wont be able to get into recovery you need to get into download mode

You can boot into recovery without being rooted... i did it before when i wanted to do a hard reset.. plus the tmobile rep wanted me to try and boot into recovery to do a hard reset and clear all user data.

remove the battery for five minutes, then reinsert it. You can now go back to the normal download mode. ANd I think you can even boot up normally. The former scenario happened to me so I am quite sure of that.
THANKS!!!!

I always brick my baby, and Odin is always there to save me
