1. have you tried "power button" ?
2. have you charged the phone ?
on a bright side, you are the 1st one !

Maybe your battery is loose? Not to mention that bricking a
phone is usually due to screwing up a software flash. So, is brick really the right word?

LOL!!
Try holding down the volume down button as you turn the phone on...see if that does anything.

Only time I'd allow the "First" comment to be used in a thread.
Im guessing CW Recovery...

Thank you guys
I think it's bricked, and unrecoverable.
After several flashing, It suddenly turned off then never woke up again. Any effort so far is hopeless

I tried with captivate stock firmware, i9000 international firmware, then I flash back to vibrant stock firmware.
After had things done with Odin, my phone restarted, and it was the last time I saw my baby working as a smart phone.

Did you try to reboot the phone into recovery or download mode?

Koush said:
If you are stuck on the phone to PC screen, you are NOT bricked. During development, I ended up getting into this state a couple times myself. You can still get into download mode in the same fashion.
Connect your phone to USB so you get the phone->PC screen. Press and hold both volume up/down. Then press and also hold Home. Then start pressing and holding power for 2 seconds. After 2 seconds, let go of power. Continue holding volume up, volume down, and home, until you get into download mode.

no, a completely blank screen.
no icon, no GUI, no nothing (

Yeah, weird...I just flashed back to US firmware and now my phone is totally unresponsive to everything. Keep in mind I've flashed back and forth several times...even once thought my phone was bricked because the power button wouldn't even turn the screen on. But after holding the correct buttons it finally booted into download mode. I was even using my phone earlier just fine, and having it run quadrant test of 1700, but as soon as I flashed back to 100% stock US firmware, my phone now no longer boots. Go figure lol.
Though this time I think it has bit the dust for real, lol. So be weary of flashing back to US firmware if you are flashing a lot of different other firmwares. Cuz I think something happens and the key combinations get deleted so it refuses to boot into any mode.

I"m at the phone to pc screen..but the Home button is not a "button" it's a touch sensitive button on my vibrant and it won't go into download mode...
I got here because i flashed the custom kernel to put the market and data on a ext4 partition...and it reversed my volume buttons and reversed the routing of sound..headphone speaker..that stuff....so i couldn't hear anything...so when i went to reflash stock t-mobile firmware it told me not to unplug for like hours..it wasn't doing anything.....i took the battery out and now i'm stuck at phone to pc...i think i might just use the warranty..seeing as u can't do a think with it...atleast i can't that is..i feel like a moron...
the forum said to work on com7 but com4 was showing up in odin...i couldn't get it to go on com7 so i thought it should still work....

what was your combination?

I hold volume up and down..then hold home with those..then power for 2 seconds..let go and nothing...it doesn't recognize i'm holding the home because it's a software based button..the home key that is..and with no software...no button...so i'm afraid this screen means bricked...adb reboot download won't work either...i'm gunna get it exchanged in the morning..under buyers remorse..

PLEASE help me..

I went to install the new samsung update. I've used odin and never had many problems, but it didnt start the donwload, i removed the usb cable (while on the download screen on phone). Unplugged again, unresponsive to odin. Turned off phone and now when i turn it back on I get icon of PHONE ! Computer
I can't search for anything, because it's saaying the search is down for 5 minutes (10 minutes ago) . I know there is info on here for this but can someone tell me or point me where the correct link is so i dont mess up the phone.
THANKS!!

Just redo the download procedure,ie turn off phone, plug in the usb and hold vol and power

I took out battery, phone is off, plugged in usb cable and I get the icon of the phone with exclamation point and PC. I never was able to get to download mode without using adb reboot download, but obviously now, i cant get to adb because it doesnt find the device anymore.

Don't worry about the icon, just do the same procedure and it'll do on download mode
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

But you can't because it doesnt see the device... im freaking out...

after you pull the battery and put back in, hold down the up and down volume buttons, THEN plug the usb in WHILE holding the volume buttons.

just imaging the icon with the phone and the pc is the battery icon... and do the same procedure... you will get to download mode again. and restart your computer and try.

That happened to me and just replaced my phone with tmobile and got a brand new one, yrust me nothing works when is in that image I gave up and called tmobile.

Nope, this is not working, did this 10 times. I put battery back in, hold up.down then plug usb while holding, the screen keeps coming back the same. But like i keep saying, i was NEVER able to get to download mode before. Must have tried it 200 times.

take the battery out, put it back in. Plug the device and when you see the icon, hold vol up and down and power, as soon as the screen goes black remove your finger from the power button, but KEEP holding the vol. buttons until the dl screen comes on

Batt and cable off, plug cable hold buttons then battery in.
Remember u broke it u bought it, but ofcourse tmo will have to fix something U broke.

oh well, no matter what i try , it keeps going back to same screen. This is freaking frustrating. In my reading on here, there seems to be some people that are not able to get into donwload mode from the buttons. If this is the case for me, do i have ANY other options then bringing it to be Tmobile. I have only had the phone for 3 weeks, but i really want to get it resolved without bringing it in, i have lots of stuff on phone (i have backup off the phone).

Try all the steps here if you haven't already:

You know that they can probably fix it and that its not really BRICKED then when they find out that he had Superuser.apk, they'll add a fee to his bill and that would be even worse.

Bricked.

This is exactly what happened to a friend of mine as well. He accidentally flashed the captivate Odin3; nothing works now. The weird thing is, is when you plug up the phone now it will do nothing. It won't power on. It won't even give prompt from the computer, anything. The only way it will power up at all is having he battery in only. Can someone explain me how this might happen? Can a software flash just short out a board?

I don't know how to help you...but am wondering why do people try this?????? We know there is no recovery available...I am just speechless.... That's probably why moto locked bootloader cause of crap like this and money loss

Ill on honestly he could of been looking for a way to clear the stock/angel rom, so that he could reflash to stock. Even if you reflash/wipe cache/ reformat some settings remain. For instance if you don't have debugging on and you turn the brightness off by mistake you're FUBAR'd!

Can he get to download mode (battery out! Usb connected. Volume down). If he does, there's still hope.
I actually had to flash the US Cellular kernel in order to get to the point where I could re-flash the stock kernel.

I have flashed the captivate rom and the i9000 rom before from odin, and was still able to get into download mode. At the time i hadnt made the odin restore files so i had no way of fixing it. The files i created in another thread should be able to get him back, as namebrandon can tell you

That is what is so weird about all this. If he usb is plugged in at all the phone will not power on. It will only power on when it is using the battery.
And yes. He was trying to flash back to stock ROM bc he bricked it with a different ROM. He was under the impression that Odin would auto detect his phone.

If he cannot get into download mode (pull out battery, pull out sd card, put battery back in, hold ONLY the volume down key and plug into computer) then he completely bricked his phone. He might have clicked the update boot loader option in Odin, or just flashed something that he didn't know what would happen when he did.
If he takes it back to verizon, they will most likely replace it as long as he doesn't tell them he rooted it / tried flashing it.

Microwave?
Take the battery out first. 4-5 seconds should do it. Too long and the plastic will melt.

um. how about that is a horrible idea. i just kicked you on irc for even suggesting that.
If you cant get into download mode, you could always splice a micro usb cable into a surge protected outlet and burn out the board...

We're to the point of trying to figure out how to completely destroy a phone so it won't boot. I don't think burning out the board is much more of a risk than a microwave for 4-5 seconds. What if his cable lights on fire, then his carpet, etc..
It's a stupid point to argue.

Hardware Locked Failed Odin Soft Brick

I thought I'd mess with Odin today. But little did I know today was the day my Vibrant would die.
My Vibrant is the lucky LARGE nand hardware locked ones.
Odin failed now I can't do anything to the phone, can't download mode, can't recovery, can't get computer to recognize the device so I can't do any adb commands. Is there any hope?

That's your only hope.

I can't solder so I bought the part.
If I take battery out
Plug usb in
hold volume up volume down power and home button (it's a real button like internation)
the phone ! computer icon flashes

You can odin from that screen if your comp can recognize the phone. You will lose your internal info but just re-flash.
In the case you get up & running you should apply the .SBL fix that is flaring around. This will get rid of the "hardware lock"

Computer doesn't recognize phone, and the funny thing is I already applied the SBL "fix" and it didn't work, also didn't brick.

[brick] g2 d802 bricked with LG UTILITY Flash Tool - no download or recovery mode

Hi! I was Changing ROM From sensation classic 7.6 to sensation black 3.2. Then after i reset the phone and was about to boot it up again, i managed to hit factory reset. My phone was bootlooping, so i set it in download mode and used LG flash tool.I hit the wrong COM so it crashed in the middle of the update and now it is bricked. I managed to **** up my phone 2 times in a row. I cant seriously believe myself. Is there anybody that has the same problem or hopefully a fix on this one? Please, I am desperate!
I WILL DONATE minimum 10 dollars, possibly 20-30 to whoever finds a fix.
Symptoms :
- LG logo in 2-10 seconds then showing black color ( not actually off but black )
- when i plug it in my pc 15 ish hard drives pops up that " needs to be formatted before use ".
- shows as QSHUSB_BULK in usb manager
- no download or recovery mode
I seriously am amazed that i managed to fail twice on this. Sorry for bad english, not my first language..

Make sure the phone is completely powered off. You will need to long press the power button. Best to do this in a darkened room as initially the screen goes black but there is still some backlight. Keep holding the power button until you are sure it's off.
Then use the 2 button combo to get to the factory reset screen.
In my case resetting would bring me back to download mode.
Then connect to flash tool and flash kdz.

Keep trying. It can be tricky. When you're holding the two buttons wait until you see the screen flicker. Release the buttons and press again.

Me too. Whatever button combo i use i just get the black screen. Which combo did you use? If i use vol down and power the black screen doesnt come up, it just restarts instead.

Volume plus power down. It's really important that the phone is powered off properly. You can check by plugging to charger, if its powered off you will get the battery icon.

You really do have to hold the power button for a long time. It can be quite difficult to see if it truly is off because it's displaying a black screen, that's why I suggested a darkened room.
