[Q] Bricked i9000? Help needed. - Galaxy S I9000 General

Bricked I9000?
This phone goes only in download mode, but the pc is not recognize the phone and yes i have latest usb drivers installed. I have tried every usb port on my win 7 pc and my other windows xp pc.
I have tried everything but nothing, so this is my last try, to get help here.
Can someone tell me what to do?
Or is this just bricked and thats it.

You're saying your pc does not recognize the phone, but does Odin? Make sure to kill Kies process too.
Sent from horseback.

since your phone goes into download mode, flash a stock gingerbread rom via odin and your phone will boot again.
Hope this helps

got this problem too some days before. even Odin and dl mode did't work.
1)what rom was on the phone?
2) did you tried several cables and pc's?
3)maybe there is dirt in your USB port on your phone. so take pressure sprayer and clean it. cause that helped me. now it works again.
wish you good luck.

[Q] Soft Brick

I've searched all over the posts and google and have yet to find a solution. I am a MAC user and trying to restore fascinate. I am stuck at Samsung screen. I can get into Clockwork Mod Voodoo.
When i did my last backup I never enabled USB Debugging. I can not ./adb into device, nor can I use ODIN on friends PC. (No Device) Same result with Heimdal "Failed to detect Device" I would just like to get back to stock. Is there a step by step guide to recover similar to ODIN get you back to stock but for a MAC. Or since i never enabled Debug mode I should just use my warranty?
When you tried Odin, did you have the battery out and put the phone in download mode?

Yes, I did see the Yellow triangle Droid character w/ shovel
So, battery out and in download mode, Odin doesn't recognize? Hm

I feel because I never enabled debug mode originally.
Does it recognize the phone at all? Maybe the drivers need to be updated

Morning, I'm attempting to resolve the same issue. I have the "Yellow Shovel" Andy but I can't get Odin to recognize the device.
The device was fine and Odin was working last night, however I do believe I did something ridiculous last night. I tried flashing my phone with a Nexus S rom and succeeded. HOWEVER, the only buttons that are recognized are the "Home" and "Menu" soft keys.
I can boot into the 2.3 Nexus S rom but I can't get the hardware to recognize anymore.
UPDATE: I managed to get the USB to recognize. I'm not completely sure how, it just started recognizing it after fidgeting with the cable. I'm not flashing it back to stock using ODIN and the following post.

UPDATE: The link above worked. I recommend using the stock USB cable that comes with the phone. Now that it's back.. I'm curious to know what I would have to change for 2.3 to work.. hm..

Come to think of it I did update the drivers on my friends PC but there was an error installing drivers. He had a Windows XP 32bit device (Did install the 32bit drivers X86) Im going to try my other buddies PC he has Vista should that make a difference?

"USB not recognised", Odin download mode problem

Hey. Im brand new to this forum and to Android aswell since i came from Iphone. Yea im a noob and sorry if you notice bad english
So i received my SGS2 some days ago and after researching about root/custom roms and stuff, I decided to start with rootin my SGS2. i download Odin3 1.85 and superoneclick, i also liked litening rom v1.1 and downloaded that too.
So i turn on "USB debugging" and turn off the phone to enter "download mode" and when i try to connect to Odin, nothing shows up. And Windows bar tells me that usb is not recognised. But... flash drive/transferring files and connecting to Kies works just fine. Please help me, ive been sitting over 24 hours with this issue and ive restarted/uninstalled installed pretty much everything over and over again (kies/drivers/device) not windows though. Why wont Windows/odin recognise it in download mode???
And if possible, is there a way around to install litening rom??
Thats weird man....very very unlikely to happen...
Just tell us step by step with screen shots if possible then it becomes very easy for us to find where u r doing it wrong...ok ?
Turn off USB debugging .
reboot phone and PC .

This is driver issue.Try to find on kies an option to install the drivers again(i am not in front of my pc).Of course phone on and untick usb debugging

This is a driver problem. The Gadget Driver fails to get installed properly.
Make sure Windows Update are set to automatically find drivers for your devices.
I myself faced this problem. To rectify it I'd to try the same thing on a different machine and it worked flawlessly there.
The problem you're facing is that the Service Mode drivers are not getting installed, hence Odin is unable to recognize it.
Other possible fixes include, trying on different USB Ports, downloading Samsung PC Studio.
Thx for the replies everyone. Yea i figured its a driver issue, ill try the suggested actions incl samsung pc studio installing, and if its still not working i guess my last resort is using another pc or reinstalling windows on my own pc
In kies, i think in the tools menu, there is a install drivers option. This will fix the problem im sure. Not sure about pc studio having the same.

fyi, i reinstalled windows and updated everything and the driver connection issue is solved now. I should have done this from the beginning instead of freaking out for several midnight hours lol thx for the help everyone, hopefully the rooting and flashing process should happen painless now
if anyone has this problem too,
i had the same problem and for me closing kies helped.

Try putting it into download without a battery. Have Odin ready, plug in usb cable without battery in then put it into download mode. Odin in EC05 stock tar, then root and flash after that.

Awhile back i deleted the boot animation and shutdown animation files... I wonder if that did something. Since then clean gb rom has installed new animations files which work..

Not to sound dumb, but are you using the same cord as your wife to try and make transfers? I have a computer in my living room, with 2 different USB Cords that my wife and I use for charging in the evenings. One of them connects to the computer properly, the other is unreliable for data and wont ever recognize a phone attached to it. Figured I'd ask so you can rule that out.
Also if the USB port is plugged into a hub, or front of the PC, try moving it to a USB port in the back of your PC that is directly attached to the motherboard. Also make sure there is nothing inside your phone USB slot. I have had some crap get in there (hence the slider on top I NEVER close when I unplug it, ) and it wouldn't connect to PC either.
These are both obvious solutions but we might as well try and start there. Let me know. I'd say uninstall/reinstall the drivers on the computer also, but if one phone works, and the other doesn't so it's not the drivers.
I had a similiar problem where my GF's phone connected fine with USB debugging on but my phone wouldn't. Tried goin back to stock...everything. Finally just put USB debugging on, plugged my phone in, went to Device Manager and where it said Samsung Android, I hit update drivers from Windows Update. Took like 20 minutes but everything worked fine after that.
I am using same chord and port as I did with my wives phone. Good question. I cleaned the contacts in the usb port still nothing. I had usb debugging on... Just tried it with it off nothing.... I really think I may have garbage data or something messing it up. When I installed ask these roms over the last year I only cleared data like once every 10-20 rom loads our when the rom did it itself. I've never had any issues til now.

Did you reinstall all 5 drivers and then try to Odin back to stock with battery out?
I have reinstalled all the drivers and used my wifes phone to compete installs as it wouldn't recognize mine. once we figure this out I will certainly odin to stock and start clean!

Dumb question.... is your wives phone the same phone as yours? ..... try going to the samsung website. Navigate to your phone and you can grab the drivers from there....
That's how I got mine.

If it comes up as unknown device then you'll need to go into the device manager and unistall the software for it. Then advance install the drivers for the unknown device it should then recognise the phone and install the Samsung usb composite device, gadget serial control, and the Samsung mobile Modem. Hope this helps

Thank you and every one for your help! I will try to install the driver file you attached. I do appreciate your help.
wife has same phone exact same setup as mine. What keeps driving me crazy its her works fine, mine is unknown device. I will try to install drivers again as suggested.... I'll report back in the morning,.thank you!

Yeah seems like wth its the same phone ^^. But make sure you open the zip and get the drivers out. Let me know if that works I've seen this problem with certain computers it has something to do with itunes sometimes I'm sure you have itunes and if you don't then its windows sometimes needs to be reinstalled.

Samsung Galaxy S2 Stuck in ODIN Mode
I too have a similar issue.
My Sprint Samsung Galaxy S2 fails to connect to my computer (also tried another computer and different usb cable), after a failed attempt to upgrade to ICS 4.0. The phone will not load up now to 'normal' operating mode.
It will only come up to the message:
"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I can no longer get into Recovery or Download modes. At least none that work. (See below)
I also built and tried the USB jig solution, which does power on the phone, but it then comes up and says:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME" GT-19100
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: YES (2 counts)
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
Downloading...
Do not turn off target!!
Any ideas?
Perhaps you can ask in the correct Epic Touch thread instead of the Epic with the keyboard thread. More likely someone there will be able to help you.

S4 Soft Bricked? Advice/Help?

Hello,
I was running Fenny's Stock Rom 4.2 on my S4 i9505 I was going good and then i flashed Stock 4.3 using mobile odin pro.
Now S4 is stuck at Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 Screen.
worst than that my laptop was not detecting the phone through USB cable. When i used to connect the cable with my phone it was not asking for any connection mode option in the notification.
Now I guess I can't flash it through odin using PC
Any other way out? How can i fix this?
Waiting for advices and suggestions .....
You do know you have to boot the phone into download mode in order to flash roms with Odin on the PC, right?Use the original cable and try different usb ports.
Or, if you had a custom recovery, does it work anymore?
Thanks for your response,
Yes i am in download mode waiting for odin to make me smile ... But nothing..
No costum recovery everything went back tu stock thats why i am stuck now ��
Then try the cable and usb port thing. It's mostly caused by those.
Tried 4 different ports and two cables, my other samsung phone can talk to my pc using same port and cable ��
So is this means my phone's port is not working for data transfer? even though it is charging my cell phone.
Power Button+Home Button+Volume Down Button

That ll take me to download mode and its if no use as i wrote above my cell is not being detected by odin/pc..
Try reinstalling usb drivers
or
another PC
it worked FOR me
Tried windows 7 and then 8 and mac book still no luck
You might have to take it to repair center and have them reinstall the software. They have tools that we simple mortals don't
it was was the hardware issue infact the charging port was having it Rx/Tx Pin faulty as per the lap guy in my area. He replaced the strip for it and now I can flash any thing using odin
