It won't work.
Do a little reading before you make a fool out of yourself and a brick out of your phone.

Every atom in the universe will become extremely unstable and simultaneously explode, wiping out life everywhere.
Or it'll just not work. Either one of the two.

LOL. i will be fun to read the thread after you do it and your phone wont boot and you cant recover it. well you can but it a real pain.

I think he should do it
Sent from my rooted froyo Fascinate

do it.
do it, then maybe you'll stop posting ridiculous posts in the development section.

Can't he just ODIN back is it ****s up?

as long as it will get back into download mode it should be possible to Odin back. not sure what can break the ability to get into download mode.

I hope he bricks his phone and his pc

man you guys are jerks..
he cant just odin back. it changes some important things. adry figured out how to fix it. its a big pain in the butt.

Seriously, instead of all the asinine comments, why not just say it won't work, and that it may brick his phone permanently? It's comments and flaming like this that make it near impossible to find helpful info in these forums. So if ur comments are not meant to help then don't post them!

guys he can i did the same thing once on my OG droid i flashed a miui update for the htc incredible on it and it really screwed a crap load of stuff up but u can fix it

This thread doesn't belong in development....and obviously gsm roms would not take on your phone

[TIP] For those duo don't see the update.

Hello everybody.
This is not really a tip. But when I wanted 2.3 , I rooted my phone because i could not update ( pc companion saying no update), and installed a custom rom instead. But I bricked the phone. Then I "repaired" with pc companion, and it was 2.3.3 ;-)
I think it would work for any non stock rom, even if not bricked.
I hope it will help some people

Why would you flash your phone if you have so little power to begin with? Even SE's update service says you are required to have a minimum of 50% charge before flashing...

That....and i dont think you can even use SE update service unless you have at least 50% battery life.

[Q] What type of brick do I have?

I've got myself out of many semi-brick situations but this time it's different. The phone is totally dead. No lights, a black screen with nothing displayed and the battery doesn't appear to be taking a charge. I'd given the phone to my son and now he's understandably upset that I've killed it for him. It happened while flashing with Odin.... It's as dead as a dodo and I assume its an ultimate brick. Is there any recovery when they're this bricked?

Sad but you must change motherboard.

You can try Unbrickable mode My Android Solutions

I had this once on my i9000 a while ago. I thought i totally smashed it, but after having the battery/sim removed for several hours i was able to get back into download mode (Vol Down/Home/Power Button). I reflashed a GB Firmware (3 file) and it worked again.
I cannot post outside links yet but look on google and maybe build a Jig (Search for "Samsung Galaxy S JIG"
They are easy to build, maybe its worth a try...
good luck my friend

Rooting the S3

I'm having real issues getting ODIN to recognise my S3 in download mode, it starts installing the drivers and then fails
Any help would be great.

Download the SIII toolkit by Mskip. And follow that. Yea the Sammy drivers are annoying and crap on my PC too.

Have you actually installed Samsung USB drivers/ Kies //
jje

Yeah, I've tried that and uninstalled Kies (but left the drivers) still nothing. The S2 was simple, why is this giving me grief? I tried the Q&A section but all their trouble shooting points seem to be letting me down.

Your phones gone man. When your chip gives away your phone is dead. I think someone posted a link to a emmc repair service. I don't know what thread that was I though.

Well, bad notice if my cellphone is dead. Today take my phone with a technician, I hope to give me good news. Only I have to wait to Monday. But then it is possible to fix the problem? I just want to know that
