Hi all, i have a problem... my phone wont boot when i press power button it just shows the i5800 screen, BUT i can get to download mode but that wont help because i flashed again with odin and it said "passed" but its stuck on i5800 screen. i have tried everything... it all started today when my phone fell from my pocket and the battery flew out. so i think it might be broken or something. if you know what to do please help
EDIT: it seems i can flash eclair but when ever i try to flash ANY custom ROM (POX, indroid, lestatious, kyrillos) it stucks on the i5800 screen...
What ROM you flashed?

this is not the same... it fell out of my pocket and never booted again
super bump please help!
try shaking the phone
keep it near your ears and shake
if you hear some sounds then maybe something is broken
roll back to eclair and try updating via kies-that may help a lot
if updated - take to service center
even if not
take to service center and tell them i never used kies so not on froyo(if they ask)
One more thing
Do this all after some time of no flashing,rooting,anything like that to the phone
let it be as it is for some time
sometimes this really helps(hpnd wid me)

i cant update to any froyo ROM... not via odin OR kies...
what will i say to them? sorry i cant install any C-ROM only stock eclair can you fix it? i mean they have to repair it because i pay 4e month so they will repair it no matter what... but still that would sound pretty dump if i go there and say: help me i cant install any C-ROM
Have you tried the usual as in taking the battery out for a minute, wiping data/cache + factory reset? Then trying to install as stock JPM? And have you just waited for several minutes for it to go past the I5800 screen? If it takes a moment for it to gather its bearings after a sudden drop.

As we Finns would say at this point... Perkele! It is dead, man. One last resort is stock JPM. Maybe you need to risk it and stick in the bootloader aswell...
Try flashing an earlier FroYo version like JP9 and then flash JPM or some other new version.

i am in desperate need of help i tried giving my pops a hand with his vibrant since he sees all the stuff i do to my nexus..i flashed the stock firmware from jac and the phone will not boot...well actually i get the tmobile splash...the vibrant splash..and the s animtion..problem is after that i guess the phone just hangs...the screen nvr turns on..i press the capacitive buttons and they light up but nothing on th screen and i cant get it to turn on...now i dont believe its bricked cause i can get into recovery and into download mode..i tried flashing through odin about three times...everything goes through..the phone resets..goes through the boot screens but after that nothing comes up...backtracking for a min...the whole reason i tried to flash the stock jac firmware was because i went into rom manager and tried to partition the sdcard..when i hit partition the phone rebooted and nothing would come up..i am assuming that it reformatted the internal card..needless to say thats when i tried flashing the stock and this is where im stuck at...i would really appreciate some help..and hopefully this will stop anyone else from running into this issue...do not try to partition the sdcard from rom manager..i hope i have described this in enough detail...thanks
looks like someone might owe his daddy a new phone.
Get ready for a spanking.
If my dad were still alive he would probably murder me if I ever bricked his new 200 dollar phone.
Just kidding. I hope you get it working bro. If not, try to exchange it. Say you don't know what happened to it, you turned it off and let it charge overnight and when you woke up to turn it on, this happened. Have tears in your eyes. They'll exchange it for you

I agree with this. If you dad goes in, T-mo won't think "This old dude must have hacked it!" They'll exchange it right away and even apologize to him.

have you tried to manually remove the partition and see if it boots? or try to boot without the sdcard?
what I did was flash Eugenes Froyo rom which worked well, then I re-flashed the stock rom. Now it works just like before.

could u explain to me how to do that..i would appreciate it..cuz i kind of think it has to be a problem with partitions..also another thing i noticed is when the phone reboots and goes into recovery in red letters data wipe says fail..i have also tried both pit files 512 and 513..evrything thing works gets past boot screens but the screen doesnt come on
So i flashed something that my phone doesnt agree with and now it gets stuck in boot. it gets to samsung screen then goes black and back to samsung over and over..
through clockwork i've wiped everything, tried to recover, tried to flash fresh roms, new kernels everything but i'm still stuck.. is this a situation to try odin? I don't have access to a pc so i just wanted to know if that is the next step cause its kinda of a pain in the ass to get a hold of one

what exactly did you flash to your phone that it didnt agree with
i flashed geek's uv superfast test and then followed his links to enable the BLN.. i think i might have flashed a bln mod for another device by accident but i'm having trouble finding the links i clicked so i'm not positive.. all i know is after i flashed it my boot animation changed to i 9000 and then it got stuck and then it got stuck in boot lock
to be frank, i can't find what the **** i did so i'm starting to think i was in a diff device forum or something... i musta flashed something for another device

yeah you are pretty much screwed
screwed as in i should go to verizon w/ a sob story or screwed as in try odin
Couldn't you use Odin to restore? Or have you already tried that?
yeah man just revert to stock via Odin . Youre fine , happens to everyone at some point . Get back on that Android horse and ride it haha .
Yes, use odin.
If flashing other kernels doesn't fix this, (ie you still get stuck after the Verizon logo with lit buttons) let me know. I've got a trick up my sleeve for this, but I've only seen it happen twice, it's pretty rare.
i'm not proud of myself but i went to verizon and they gave me a brand new device...

Are any of those stock rom's you are trying, or are they all Darky's roms?
Flash a stock rom, hopefully that will get you up and running. After that, format your sd card.
couple of them are stock, none worked.
downloading a march 2011 stock firmware from samfirmware now, aswell as EZBase rom
If darkys is a 2.2.1 based rom then you need to flash to that base first.
Try a stock 2.2.1 firmware in odin with all 3 files and tick repartition. I use jpu and always works.

MY fix for broken phones is .
Use Odin flash Eclair with pit 512 and repartition checked .
Phone works flash base Froyo .
Phone works you can now customize as required .
Choose a rom this time that does not kill phone .
jje
thanks fellas, will try that.
i've flashed about 5 ROMS and tryed repartion and none have worked, will try a eclair, gotta go download one
ok, JPU did not work. 3 files, re-partion and 512 pit
oh dear
When you say jpu didn't work, did the process actually start in Odin and complete?
If not, just reboot download mode again, close and restart odin and try again.

yeah it said PASS, just got the stupid white reboot thing.
JE3 ( 2.1 ) halfed worked, it went into recovery, dont some **** then booted. then i got something like "kernel panic pload" with all this red writing ????????

yes, happened that to me too. If it;s not starting anymore, than you must rewrite it's bootloader with JTAG...JIG won;t help. The point is, when you tried to go back on 2.2.1 you should first flash the bootloader with heimdal. With bootloader updated you shouldn't have any problem flashing back JM8 or something
sorry for you

There might be answer to your misery, check Yovi's thread, he found hard reset method for totally bricked phone.

Edit. Just read you can not power up. Go with Jobiza's post.
Flash just a kernel in PDA ie voodoo or speedmod k13. Nothing else and auto reboot checked. After that flash away.
This happened to me and I tried different combos for hours till this method and it worked.
Good luck mate.

Don't know did you tried it, but if you are able to go to Download Mode, download JVK with bootloaders from XDA, start Odin check Re-Partition and Phone Bootloader Update select filef from new FW connect phone and it should do the magic I hope.

Take it to the service center again, maybe they have given you a bad motherboard.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Try reflashing with SEUS again.
You can also try a factory reset, a repair of the phone with sony ericsson pc companion and as aR_ChRiS said take it to the repair center again. It's better not to do anyathing that voids the warranty.

my guarantee has expired and if is really the motherboard, would cost more to repair it, that buy it new.. i think is a sw problem because it reboot only if i use it, if i leave in standby or use in recovery nothing happens..

I have updated to ICS via OTA.
Now, if i open keypad to dial it first shows grey screen for 2seconds and then the numbers appears... Same with contacts.
I also got couple of times black screen as if phone frooze.
Once, even i got scrambled green images on screen which got corrected by pressing Home button multiple times.
Apart from this, Phone seems to be running fine.
So, how can i myself solve this problem now OR Do i have to go to Samsung service centre and let them reinstall ICS?
PS:
I am using Indian official ICS Baseband Ver. LP4 & Build Number LP8.
I have never rooted and was on Stock GB before the urgrade.
I fear if i try to fix this ICS problem myself i will run into bricking problem.
UPDATE
See post 7 & 13 Below
I had this issue but after i wired data using code *2767*3855# everything worked smoothly.
You can try this at your own risk as it might brick if yor device has emmc bug. I have already done it over 15 times and no issue

I rooted my Note after about two days so not sure if this will work on non-root....
Reboot into recovery (Power+Vol Up + Home) then clear cache and clear Dalvik cache. Reboot then see if lag continues. Clearing caches and reboot seems to get rid of lags and gives phone a new life
Today again phone got frooze on homescreen for 5mins and got back to life again after pressing Home key numerous times
So yes, something is wrong with this ICS update.
Plz provide a solution and also mention if tht solution can lead to bricking bug..
BUMP.
I had exactly the same problems while updating Gb to ICS using OTA update. Anywhow, I never got to fix this. I would try following steps:
Clean the cache of your ICS installations/apps using any Cache-cleaning tool on the Play Store
Reboot your phone like 2-3 times (sometimes this seems to fix some problems with your kernel/rom since they have to settle down.
Update all your apps to their latest versions, since most apps have fixes for ICS installations, and might slow your phone a bit down in some way
Click to expand...

When you still would have problems with your ICS installations I would recommend installing a custom rom over your stock ICS installation. This did the trick for me eventually.. But depends on if you would like to have a stock or custom ICS rom.
HELP
I tried the above suggestion and done Factory Format via *2767*3855#.
Now, after entering code the device havent rebooted for the next 15mins, so i pressed the power key to reboot manually and then i got the message format failed or sumthing similar which i dont seem 2 recall.
Now, all my Smemo data & camera images is wiped... but phone numbers and messages intact.
and the originally mentioned problem is still there..... So wht is my solution now ?
I want to delete every old system files & Clean-install ICS - So Is it via kies?
Dont know much abt all this so a detailed help would be highly appreciated.

You can use pc odin to flash stock ics, not recommended though as you're on ics kernel now. Best to follow previous poster, fladh gb stock kernel first.

Since you did nothing wrong that could void your warranty, and you don't know too much about fixing it yourself, save yourself the hassle and let a Service center take cre of it for you .
