Argh! I just tryed to restore back to JM1 from JPO due to official FroYo being near. Flashed plenty of times before so I know what I'm doing. Set up the usual pda, modem csc etc and it started to flash then my phone went from the download mode screen to a greyish colour. I left it for a few minutes and nothing was happening and the flash had failed. Took the cable out pressed the power button and that was it, it will no longer turn on. Has anyone got any ideas, I wouldn't ask for help if I didn't need it.
Thanks guys.
Edit: My phone from stock has been able to access download mode.
Hope you have your lagfix disabled prior to flash.

Yep, always make sure thats the first thing I do. I'm quite an avid user of xda so I tend to keep up with what to do etc. I really have no idea whats happened. I've tried holding down the download mode combo for a while and nothings happened. When I connect the usb to the computer nothing happens, take it out and put it back in a few time I hear the 'noise' thing from Windows 7. So there must be some kind of life in it :\
I recently did the same thing with my SGS. I bricked it once already trying to flash so was really apprehensive about doing it again but I'm addicted to flashing from my WinMo days with HTC phones.
When I flashed from JPO to JM1 I used all the JM1 files (PDA, Modem and CSC), the 512.pit and selected repartition and all went well. Sounds like something may have glitched when doing yours, maybe a spike in the power or temporary loss of comms between phone and PC?
Have you looked into the homemade JIG thats been detailed in XDA? Might be worth a try if you're completely locked out
You could try this as it happend to me a few time backs
Remove the battery, hold down the buttons for download mode and dont let it go find a way to insert the battery.
Let us know when its done!

Tried that :\ No luck unfortunately! This is what happens when your addicted to ROM flashing. Maybe I need help haha. Going to hold in download mode buttons for as long as I can to see if anything happens, will report back.
EDIT: Right finally getting somewhere. After holding in the download mode combination for 5 minutes I managed to get into download mode. I really have no idea why though? Anyways Odin isn't playing ball. Odin won't get past factoryrfs.rfs. I'll leave it there and see what happens
EDIT 2 : Nothing. Can anyone help me on this?
Got help elsewhere, run kies in comparability mode for windows xp and run as admin. Phones working for the time being
Thanks for the help from those who contributed, it means alot.

Thanks so much it worked for me...
My friend has got a Samsung I5800 Apollo (Galaxy 3) which he claims it cannot make or receive calls. He asked me what might be wrong with it. I'm not saying its lost or stolen but why else would it not work? Only other thing could possibly when it was unlocked to networks the phone imei got messed up? I've seen some phones get all zeros.
i'd suggest unlocking it with superoneclick. if that fails, maybe replace the phone.apk?
Honestly, i think the simplest solution when u have serious prblms like that is to backup all ur data and just flash a new ROM. I can wholeheartedly recommend Kyrillos' ROM v9.5. Hasnt let me down once!

I will probably test that rom out at some point. Thanks

You didn't by any chance restore your system data with TiBa when changing roms?? And not to sound patronising but you can enter recovery mode (if available on your kernel) by pushing Vol Up+Vol Down+Home+Power buttons together and restore factory settings, or download mode to flash from Odin by pushing Vol Down+Home+Power buttons together.
Okay i got the phone today and it was on 2.1. I updated it to AOKP just to test and it installed fine. But the sim card does not get found at all. I tried 2 sim cards that work in my sg2.
If there any place I can check to see if the phone has actually been locked to use?
Sometimes problems like this can be caused by framework-res.apk. Try flashing a custom ROM and see if it works.

If I'm not wrong, AOKP is an ICS ROM, and I'd read that ICS has a bug and don't see the sim card untill you remove the pin.
Wont work without disabling Pin on SIM.
i'm gonna quote the solution i had with the exact same problem when my emei got corrupted:
marcel i found out what was teh problem corrupted EMEI - efs....
i was lucky enough to have a nv_data.bin backed up in my sd from ages ago!
i dowloaded an efs.tar flashed it through odin and then copy nv_data.bin from sd -> /efs and then
chown 1001:1001 /efs/nv_data.bin
i inserted my sim and VOILAAA!!! this is a know problem with cm7 and since someone will get this problem these are the links that will solve the problem:

Hi few days ago I bought a s3. He was stoned him IMEI 0049, due to the fact that I have Z3X I uploaded all ok now only be a matter of spontaneous reboots. Phone reboots itself. When this is done can be reset until you'll take out the battery for about 5 seconds. After that withstands without reset of 10 - 15h.
I tried to upload the new official software as well as old, just as the bootloader. I would add also that I replaced the battery.

Hey friends,
I really looked everything up, but I could not find anything what helped me with my problem.
I have a Galaxy S4 (GT-i9505) and I wanted to update my modem from MKE to ML6. Because I had some issues with updating it (there still was the MKE at my "Status" after updating to ML6), I tried to double-overwrite it (someone wrote at a forum, that that will solbe the overwriting method). So, I started Odin 3.09 and deleted the "Auto Reboot" option. After the first flashing, I took out the battery and replaced it again. Then I did a secound modem flashing. The result was: There was still the MKE modem AND I cannot call anyone. Everytime I try to call someone and I click the call button, my Galaxy seems to crash. The screen is getting black and I have to shut it down by holding the power button for several secounds. Of course, I already tried out other modems (like to MKE modem again and MJ8), but the problem still exists.
Could anybody please help me!
Thanks,
Robert
Have you tried changing rom + modem? you cannot just randomly try modems with a certain rom as some will work others not.

it seems that your doing in a wrong way mate Try this , Turn OFF your Phone Manually (Wait about 5 sec) Now press and hold Power+VolumeDown in order to reach Download mode. Open odin select PHONE/CP (Find the modem you download) Connect the cables (check to see if it shows added on top/or should be a blue?Notsure or wait atleast 10 sec) then click start ,once done , remove the cable. and after done rebooting go to you phone setting>More>Device info and check if your baseband version change. have a nice day.

Thanks, but that is what I have done at least ten times. I tried Odin3.04 and Odin3.09. I tried MKE, ML6, MJ8. I tried Google Roms 4.4 and 4.3, as well as other custom roms. That's weird!
I have never had any luck with 3.09 i always stick to 3.07, where are you getting your modems rom?

Which tutorial do you mean?
btw: sending a sms works, as well as receiving....but no incoming or outgoing calls
Had the same thing yesterday, tried all sorts of modems, with no avail.
Ended up flashing a stock rooted Rom (MGA), flashing a custom recovery and restored a Nandroid. Forgot that flashing a complete stock Rom usually also wipes the internal SD so that was a bit of a hassle.
Now, running a new Rom again, with Wifi, sound and being able to make/receive calls again. Easiest fix also: flash a (compatible) stock Rom :good:

Thank you mate. I also found (5 sec before I read your post) this post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46969768&postcount=2
So, everything works now. The short version for other guys with the problems is:
- flash stock rom via Odin (PDA)
- you can find the stock rom for your country at sammobile.com
- also use the "pit-file" of the linked post (but I don't know, what the pit-file is changing?!)
optional:
- re-root your device again, because now it is not rooted
- new custom rom
Thanks for every help!!!

Try flashing ML6 Firmware and ML6 Modem (and Wi-Fi fix if needed), had the same issue but after doing so it's fixed.
Occured 1 time again, did a cache wipe didn't occur in 2days now.

Except flashing the Wifi Fix was the thing I did to ruin it all. Don't flash a "new" Wifi fix using an old bootloader. You will lose sound/being able to make calls. It's the thing that messed it all up over here.

I was already on the new bootloader.I've flashed Original FW, Modem + Wi-Fi fix and it fixed my phone. (Possibly also PIT but can't remember)
It can be that our problems were different but produced the same problem.. I'm not a dev nor do I understand everything about Android.
I can be wrong, but that's how I fixed my phone. Just trying to help
My phone turned off a few days ago and not power on in any mode, button combination, no battery charge...nothing. In the next day it give me a signal of life and it's enter in download mode. Than i flashed the stock firm with Odin. Wen all was finnished, during the first configurations, my s7 freezed and restarts. And suddenly died again, no boot, no power on, no nothing. Today, again, new "signal of life" and i flashed again the stock firm. Every thing, ok, boot the system, and in a few minutes, restarts and "death". But this time i can enter in download mode, stock firm again, and now it's feezing in "update system" screen. It's freezing in recovery mode too, and it's dead again. I know that in some hours it will back with a single signal. I want to know what i have to do . For years i flashed firmwares, custom firmwares in my phones and never had a problem like this. Help!
Thank you and sorry for my bad english.

Hey !
This happened to me so often, been fighting with this problem for months now and finally (i think) found the solution.
I can tell you that this problem occurs when u are using Nougat ROM! Yes, believe it or not, but since downgrading to Marshmallow i never ever faced the problem. Check it out and give it a try !
Let me now please, if that helped you!

I tried to downgrade, actually, i flashed the MM, but when the Odin finishes the flash, the phone freeze in the first blue screnn ( erasing, update system ) after this: bootloop, download mode don't work, and then the phone "get tired" and dies completely for about 12 hours and the this cycle restarts. I'm already giving up.

Did you flash with Home_CSC? If yes, dont use HOME. Use the other one. Try to flash 2 or 3 times, and after the flash finished, instantly while booting go into Recovery and Wipe Everything. Then the phone should bootloop around 10 minutes, but after it should start normally.

Yeah i know the feeling. When you have visual defects with Phone freezes and overheating its related to mb and tbh, be carefull because my Phone was super hot when it frozze while charging. Just try to replaced the mb asap. There is no point in trying to fix it since its not software related and might explode on you.
