You can try to build or buy a jig. If that doesn't work you're fubar. Learn from this experience and next time use the carpenters saying : measure twice , cut once. I wish you best of luck.

where can i buy the jig ?
or how can i build it ?

You can buy it on eBay, or search in these sections (or google "SGS jig") for instructions to make it.
You'll need a microUSB cable and a 301k resistor (example : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551)

ok , i know what a JIG is , and i found one on ebay ,
but they will ask me to torn on the phone , and at this moment , i`m not able to turn it one , do u think that once i plugin the JIG it will turn one ? and do his job ?

IDK but you can try, it's not expensive.

ok i will order 1 , and hope will make my phone turn on !
wish me luck , anc if u have other opptions just to make it turn ON just let me know !
thanks

other ideeas ? i`m ready to test them all )

EDIT!!!
JUST REALISED... you posted that you have a Galaxy S 2.
you need the S2 forums, they may help.
link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1055
Just ignore below (its for Samsung Galaxy S (I9000)
There is another way to de-brick.
The unbrickable mod...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19003060
this should work with a bricked phone, but as you can tell by the post, its not for the faint hearted!!
there is also this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1134975
EDIT: - im wrong the above thread wont help you if your phone wont switch on
imho if i brick... im going down the unbrickable road!!

thanks for your help .
i did found some one who is able to unbrick even a phone who can`t startUP , but is all the way to USA !
here is link :

2 questions:
What phone do you have??
Is it a galaxy S (i9000) or is it a galaxy s2 (i9100).
And did you flash JVT from this forum?

i experienced that also but i made it...
Try to off your phone first, then take out the battery and sd card.. put it again after few seconds, then re-do the procedure given to you.
Try to close also samsung keis program and be patient sometimes Setup Connection take a few seconds or a minute...

Ensure you must install latest Samsung drivers..
Try to connect your phone in download mode.. (Volumedown+home+power)..
It will detect..(Shows in Picture).
If not pull out our battery and go to download mode again and connect..(Try until it detects)
Flash Stock rom.. & Reply..

Calm down don't panic or else you'll fail. Here are the steps.
1. Install the correct drivers for your phone (drivers can be installed through kies)
2. Download odin with the appropriate firmware of your country
3. Connect your phone to the computer in recovery mode (volume down+ menu+ powerbutton)
4. After connecting on, there top of odin there will be a yellow box that would say com 0:[COM:X] (x is any number)
5. After connecting fill pda, phone,csc.
6. Flash it with no interruptions.
7a. If u are successful then you can turn on your phone
7b. If your not successful then repeat step one and make sure you do it properly.
8. Press the thanks button

nothing to fear
you have a problem with the connection between the phone and pc. some suggestions:
-be sure that kies is disabled from task manager
-try with another usb cable
-choose another usb port
-try other version of odin (i prefer 3.04).

G570F bricked. Only loads Download Mode but Odin stuck on Initiliazation! Please help

So, my Galaxy J5 Prime G570F switched off suddenly while I was using it. Since then, it only loads to Download Mode (Vol - + Power + Home) and shows Downloading, do not turn off target. I downloaded the stock rom files from xda and tried various versions of Odin with no success. Each time, Odin gets stuck on Initialization and my phone screen just shows the same Downloading. I noticed FRP and Secure Download are enabled. I have tried different USB ports and am using the original USB cable that came with it.
I even tried the old Odin 1.86 and here's the log from that:-

hmm, is it possible to exit download mode and enter in the stock recovery?
Its weird because you did not flashed anything to brick it, maybe something got corrupt and a factory reset could help.

Did you try connecting the phone to smart switch and try recovering from there?

Hi guys,

if you want to see the full story of how my mobile bricked you can check my previous question.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/s7-edge-sm-g935fd-completely-dead-hard-t4077485
as of now i can go into the download mode but when i try to flash the 7.0 Nougat version rom with it (the version which it had installed when it got bricked)
it starts the process but then it fails below is the log details :

if anyone has any idea please advice , as i didnt get any response on my previous question as well
and yes i searched online already and but the methods i found didnt help
Thanks in advance.

This looks more like emmc chip (your phone's storage chip) error, you already lost all your data and if its a hardware issue then i doubt software reflash could fix it, but do tell me what was your current firmware number which was in your phone before all this , also send a pic of download mode..
Also what screen stripes you were talking about in your earlier thread? Send a screenshot of them too (looks more like a hardware problem too)
If you can't post images here on xda, just upload to an external site like imgur and send your pic link here ..
Per my best knowledge, smart switch doesnot support emergency recovery anymore (but if it still supports in some old versions or it works - then please do try that too) .. Good luck

My firmware was Nougat 7.0 . S7 EDGE SM-G935FD
I will try to put the images on the site you mentioned and give the link here
i didnt try the smart switch as i was afraid it might automatically format it and put the latest firmware , i hope the emmc ship is still recoverable as thats my only hope if firmware flashing doesnt help

that sucks man
what about the emmc chip , would it be possible to do a chip off recovery?
what i dont understand is that if its a hardware issue then why does it even turn on and allow me to go to the recovery mode

What was the last firmware present on your phone. Hardware damage is always tricky.. sometimes it allows phone to boot with weird things going on before completely failing..
I can see that your bootloader number is 2 , i will give you the combination rom, try flashing that in odin
Be warned that all your data in your phone is already lost, at this point your only goal is to make your phone working again, thats where i am helping..
Combination u2 rom : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JKDiV3LmqUt8GLlOLnmZ6Xsqxn-Hpv9d/view?usp=drivesdk
Flash it in odin 3.14.4 and untick auto reboot in odin options, if flashing is successful .. ur phone will still be in download mode.. hold vol down + home + pwr button to force reboot and when phone starts rebooting( screen goes black ) immediately change holding from vol down to vol up+ home + pwr buttons , trick here is to force reboot to recovery directly from download mode without booting combination rom, do a factory data wipe in combination recovery.. then clear cache and then try reboot to combination rom..
If you could boot into combination rom, run some hardware tests.. and report back, if everything goes good, we can try flashing the last stock firmware that was present on your device, Good luck

I honestly dont remember the exact firmware details, all i know is that it was Nougat 7.0 and an update was available for a long time but i didnt update as i had no space (like only 800 or 900mb was left)
I see, so the data is lost.
Soo this combination U2 rom , it will replace the rom which was previously installed?
Sorry i am just trying to learn more about this combination U2 rom as i have never read about it
Thanks

does flashing a combinatiom rom usually make a mobile lose its data?
what if theres still a chance to recover the data

It will just help to unbrick your device (provided that it gets flashed successfully in odin first)
Just follow my steps in above post after (if) odin could flash successfully.

You tried flashing already..
Flashing anything has the risk to lose all your data if you have no backup before ..
And flashing with HOME CSC doesn't erases data..
But as you said you tried flashing various stock firmwares, but odin failed in the middle..
So yeah, i think your data is already lost
But if it was that important , i seen some android programs which can recover deleted files from phone but they are mostly paid and also phone should be in working condition..
Also there are professional data recovery companies who would take in your phone and pull its memory chip apart and use their special hardware on that chip to extract anything they could.. but there is no guarantee that you will get back any important data from it and their cost is huge for this process..
Thats why its recommended to always keep a back up of all your data

yes i tried flashing the stock but that recovery.img error occurs.
i have always read people say that you lose data after flashing a stock rom which isnt true as i recently flashed Note 3 Neo SM N7502 and Note 3 SM-N9005
both with stock rom and all the data, apps and contacts were intact.
i only used the AP files on both and nothing else
but i have never flashed a combination rom so was curious if the data is erased if that is flashed.
Yes, i have seen several apps like wondershare/dr fone which can recover the data but the problem is they either require root or say if unrooted the USB debugging has to be on , in my case i never rooted nor turned on the USB debugging mode as i never needed it.
i live in dubai , currently i am searching for someone who can professional pull out all the data from the chip but due to the coronavirus lockdown all shops are shut and even online technician arent active.
Yes its better to always backup the data, it happened so suddenly as i mentioned in my first post it automatically went blank when i plugged in my usb
anyhow i will try to flash the combination rom and let you know
Thanks

You cannot compare a note 3 with s7 series generation lol
And yes , flashing a stock rom wipes all data if you DON'T choose HOME _ CSC in csc box..
Flashing with home_csc won't cause data loss but its akin to a dirty flash .. causes problems and is there for upgrading android os without data loss, and its not generally a good thing to NOT wipe data and factory reset after flashing as it causes problems..
IF YOU INTEND TO DO A PROFESSIONAL RECOVERY OF YOUR DATA DON'T FLASH ANYTHING ANYMORE AS IT WILL FURTHER MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO RETRIEVE !
WARNING : combination rom would wipe all your data, so be warned if you flash it, it would be even more difficult to recover data ..

hmm i see,
well i guess i will just wait for a professional recovery service then, if they cant recover then i will just use this combination rom and try and fix the mobile so its usable again
