After flaashing to I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears I cant use download mode

Hi
I flashed to I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears
it's working but I saw it's for Capatiave model and I have I9000 so sounds doesnt work and also the home bottem is not working
also when I connect USB the phone reset itself, even if I plug the electric charger
I cant move to download mode or recovery mode like I used too
Please help me out
Thakns

Um why did you flash it in the first place? Blows my mind.
Hopefully someone can help you out.

I also accidentally used the firmware I897UCJI6-OCD-... but I did not notice that this firmware Kaptivate and I have a SGH-I9000. After flashing I got a dead phone. When connected to a USB charger or computer - the phone goes off. If you turn on your phone, there is a white screen saver AT & T after which the animation appears SAMSUNG GALAXY S. After 10-15 seconds the vibration of the phone with one long and three short, after about 20 seconds again repeated vibratory signals 1 long and three short and this is repeated ad infinitum! I do not know what to do. It is a pity that Samsung does not care about these issues.

And why should samsung care about these issues? You are not supposed to be flashing your phone in the first place. I bricked mine in the same way previously as well and I have nobody to blame but myself

Relax seifer, he didn't blame samsung about anything. (edit: just saw the other post you are commenting about, sorry)
liranm I think the download mode for Captivate is different but I am not so sure you can pull it off on the i9000
IIRC the Captivate dl mode needs to have up+down+power

Bricked/Damaged Phone ??

Hi, i bought an HTC Dream/Google G1/T-Mobile G1. I bought as faulty and asked the guy what did it had. He said he needed to flash and update software. So i bought it thinking that if that's the problem i'd solve it and end up with an Android phone. I paid €50 for it. Thing is i can't do anything to the phone. I plugged the battery, pushed power and it gives the normal vibrate and then nothing, the screen doesn't even light up. I have to take the battery out to power off the phone then. If i plug the USB, it lights the red LED, but no recognition of the phone by the PC, turn it on again...the same.
I've searched the forum, top to bottom, and i've tried almost everything to try and make something out of my beautyfull brick. Keys combination, *.img to SD, haven´t tried throwing it to the wall, but i'm almost there.
If i could even get to bootloader... I have a Diamond and flashed it numerous times and never had a glitch.
Can you guys help out ? Please, i've searched the forum, read almost every post about bricked phones, etc...

Sounds like they may have flashed the wrong firmware file or its physically damaged and they lied to you.
I am pretty sure it needs re-flashed with a jtag interface if it's only a software issue. Because if the recovery image is intact it will still say "t-mobile G1" and be stuck in a boot loop.
Have you tried to start the phone to fastboot mode(hold down the back button and press power), or recovery(hold home and press power) ?
If you can't get into either of those you either need to find someone with a jtag adapter or get your money back because it's dead.

Thanks for the reply.
I tried all of that... . How on earth will i find someone with a jtag adapter, at least in a nearby area... guess i have nice brick then. I read somewhere here on xda of a shop in India that recovers the phone but its way to far for me to send the phone, pay the fix and they send it back!!! Well i guess thats it, i got screwed...

please help dead phone

Doesn't power on at all, tried 3 botten /w battery in and out tried two w/battery in and out. I had this happen before and someone help me.
I think this is not the right place to to list this but Im not getting help in the general, please help I need my phone

seens a hard brick. what u did to get this?

Try taking out the battery, starting Odin on your computer, plugging the phone into the usb cable connected to the computer, and while holding both the up and down volume buttons stick the battery back in to get into download mode. From there you should be able to Odin back to stock.
If that doesn't work you're SOL. You'll have to do what was suggested in your thread in general.

If you truly are hard bricked you are gonna need to find a JIG because that's the only way out of that. Other wise take your battery out god down the volume keys and put it back in and you should see the download screen. If you don't somthong deeper is wrong.

You need to purchase a (JIG) like the previous member suggested and try getting in download mode, you can buy one on eBay for about $3 simply search for (Download Mode USB Jig for Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant). I hope this helps.

have odin up pull out your battery plug usb into phone then hold power and volume down and insert battery at the same time this should get you into download mode. It may take 3 or 4 tries to get it. you have to pull battery before plugging mini usb into phone and must do the button combo and while inserting battery it would be easier being an octopus to do this but it should work if it doesnt you will need a jig. It is very hard to fully hard brick vibrants keep trying this method it took me 5 times to get into download. search the vibrant forums for odin for noobs it will give you links to all files you will need to get back to stock and start over. pm me if you need further assistance.

thank you, still trying but no luck. Im going in for surgery for my cancer so wont have much time on the phone for a wile

It's Hard Brick. Dont waste your money on JIG, it does nothing. You have to JTAG to recover Bootloader on your phone

I too have the same problem since this morning. I have Tmobile Samsung Galaxt 4G SGT959V and after rooting and downloading kernel files, it was only going to the T Mobile logo. Last night I was bale to get into the download mode and then I started downloading Gingerbread. Now my phone is not powering up. I called up samsung and as it under warranty, they are ready to fix. My problem is they will find out what I was doing and this might breach some samsung regulation. not sure???
I would like to know what should I do for getting my phone power on or in download mode. I have tried all the above mentioned steps, but it just not works. Duh!!
Please someone help!!

different phone, none of this applies to your phone

Well, I was able to get into download mode last night by running odin, pulling battery and connect to usb. Then holding volume button inserted the battery and my ohone was in download mode. But now its not powering on.
any suggestion how to get into download mode??

[HELP] Cant unbrick yureka plus no matter what

Hello developers and my fellow xda members i would like to ask for your help on this matter my yureka plus has been hard bricked since 20 days now and no matter what i try it wont get unbricked.
how did it happen??
well even i dont know actually i had recently flashed an 8.1.0 oreo rom known as nitrogen os and it ran well for like a week till one fateful thursday i have a habit of cleaning my device with clean master and restarting it every week and i did that and the next thing i know my device wont boot up later on i found out for the very first time my device had hardbriccked with no mistake of mine.
link to the rom i used :: https://forum.xda-developers.com/yureka/development/rom-nitrogenos-t3701962
what solutions did you try??
well, many actually since this is the only device i have and i have been using it for a well over 2 years now i did the good ol google search accompanied by a youtube search to find out how to get my beloved device back.
these r all the methods that i used which ended up "successful" but my device refuses to boot up even though i have followed every one of these tutorials to revive my device perfectly even repeating the process 2-3 times thinking i did something wrong but to no avail the device still refuses to get unbricked.
links to the methods i tried :: https://forum.xda-developers.com/yureka/help/guide-unbrick-hard-bricked-yureka-t3303112 (claims to have unbricked his device 3 times didnt work for me though)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1n1qTpVvOZ0 (claims to have helped 10 other people get thier device back with this same method again didnt work for me)
what r the devices symptoms ??
well, let me see there r many although i have scoured the internet for the past couple of weeks i havent found a single person with the same symptoms as mine.
when the sd card (on which the emmc is still burned on) is out of the device no matter how long you press the power button the device will not show any signs just nothing.
when put on charging or connected to the laptop (without the sd card) though it just shows that dreaded little red notification light and thats all.
with the sd card in and emmc burned onto it the device when holding the power button will just flash the screen with nothing but just a black screen no text no logo just a plain black flashing screen until i let go of the power button.
when plugged in to a laptop or a charger with the emmc in though the device vibrates goes into the "fastboot mode" with all the lines automatically without me doing nothing just plugging it in and it doesnt stop there it keeps repeating the cycle of vibrating going into the fastboot mode then going off till i take the cable off.
but the laptop doesnt detect it as anything not as "qhusb bulk" not as "qloader 9008" not even as an unknown device even though i have installed all the drivers neccessary and more.
the device has been in this state since well over 20 days now and i cannot for the life of me am able to revive it so i ask for everyones help for i will b forever grateful if u help me get this device back.
also, i refuse to believe its any hardware problem since the device has never fell off from my hand ever since i bought it over 2 years ago.

I was having a similar problem what is ur model name was it android one or cyanogen one.
If it was android one then flash this file with ydgp tool
If it doesn't start then to try to boot using charger connected
If the booting process starts or it show yu logo after yureka plus logo that means it's your battery problem

M30s does not boot - stuck at very first screen

Hi all,
my Gylaxy M30s rebooted itself yestarday, and now is stuck at the very first screen (the one showing "SAMSUNG Galaxy M30s" in the center and "Powered by android" at the bottom).
Vol down + power results in a reboot attempt (screen goes black, vibration), but the phone is stopping at the same screen again.
I am not able to turn the phone off.
Switching from Vol down to Vol up immediately when screen goes black does not enter recovery mode.
Vol down + power while charging sometimes leads to the charging symbol being shown on the screen, but without the percentage in the middle.
Charging over night did not help.
The phone cannot be connected to a Win PC.
Any suggestions what I can try?
Thanks,
Alchemist

Try volume down+volume up and while pressing those buttons, plug your phone into your computer. Tell me the results of that.

Nothing happening...

I mean trying those combinations immediately after using power+ volume down to reboot.

What did you do with your phone? Died suddenly when normally using?

Yes, phone died during normal usage.
Ah, I see - a screen comes up warning me that downloading a custom OS might harm the phone.
Also, the PC makes this "USB connected" sound when I then press Vol up, but I do not see a new drive connected, I think.
I am slightly optimistic now?

Press volume up.Then install Samsung usb drivers(search on Google)

Ugh, just wanted to do this, but now the phone is completely dead. No response to any button or charging. Will hang it on the charger for a few hours, but my optimism is gone...

OK, now it works again. I am in the screen with the colourfull stuff and the phone waits for some download.
Driver is installed on PC. Is there anything supposed to happen - the phone is still not accessible via PC, or is it?

Install Odin (search in Google 'odin samsung' and download)
Download stock firmware(android os) at www.samfw.com , after downloading you will see files like AP-M505xxxxxxx.tar.
Select, from the stock ROM AP-M305xxxxx.tar for AP in odin CSC-M305xxxxx.tar for CSC, and so forth then click start .

OK. All data will be lost, right? Is there some way to access the internal storage to rescue some files before flashing the new firmware?

Sorry to tell you that you cannot have data restored bad news for you sorry

Sorry. If you only see one file(make sure it is .tar or .tar.md5 file) after you extracted the .zip firmware, install it to the AP slot.

Any chance I could fix this issue with tools like dr.fone, UltFOne, ReiBoot?
I do not have any experiences with these - no idea if the just want to make money with desparate customers? ...

These could possibly brick your phones even more ( anyways flashing with Odin could also brick your phone). However, it in some cases can fix your device.
If you HAVE to have your data back and you don't mind paying, visit a service center and tell them: 'Hey my phone died and i HAVE to have the data back '.(I know, your warranty is expired probably, but they might still do the things for you with paying.)(if those stores closed during lockdown then I don't know any way to fix it.)

OK, another thing I have observed: The screen goes black after about 30 sec to 5 min when not charged - the shorter it was charged, the quicker the screen goes black. Buttons do nothing when screen is black. When reattached to charger, phone tries to boot and is then stuck at said screen - no button pressing needed for the phone to try to start. The longer the phone has been without charger, the longer it takes until the phone tries to boot.
Maybe it's just the battery that is dead - or would the phone with a dead battery boot normally when attached to charger?

If that is the case, open up your phone, put in a replacement battery, and try to boot up(yes, you need to. it will be a frustrating process.). Your phone could be having a faulty battery and nothing else, to cause this issue.

Im having the same problem mentioned above. The samsung service centre says to replace the motherboard which costs almost half the price of the actual phone..

Truth to be told: The guy in the repair shop opened the phone and wanted to change the battery - when he saw that water must have come into the phone, corroding the motherboard. So yeah, all data lost, but... no backup, no mercy. I now have set up a NAS for all computers and devices in our family... ;-)

If it really is a hardware problem then the quality must have been really bad.
