this is best if you post it on the general section and go back to stock thread... and be more especific like variant what error what windows you are using usn 3.0? 2,0? ect there so youll get help faster.

So I installed this (Android 2.2 build i9000XXJPH) on my Tmobile Vibrant and it worked beautifully, but then I went to root my device through "one-click" and when it got to the part in recovery mode, i tried pressing the power button to apply the update but nothing happened and now I'm stuck in recovery mode all the time, as soon as I plug the phone in to charge, or plug it in the computer via usb, or push the power button, the damn thing goes into recovery mode and stays there. I can use the volume buttons to navigate up and down through the options and if I hold the power botton down long enough the phone will turn off and back on again. But if I press the power button once (as in select an option) it doesn't do anything. I tried every single option out there to get into download mode with the battery out and usb in and volume buttons then put bat in....etc nothing works. I need to get into download mode
anyone?................

Try holding volume -+ then plug in the usb at the same time this should go into download mode.
P.S. dont touch the power button for nothing.
Try these steps:
1. Take out your battery
2. Hold vol up and vol down, continue to hold
3. Insert USB while still holding down the vol buttons
That should get you into download mode (it did for me)
thanks but I already tried that, doesn't work still goes into recovery mode
Does adb work in recovery?
Sent from my SGH-T959
nope it says device not connected
Try the same procedure with the USB cable plugged in. I go into recovery if the cable is unplugged and I go into download mode if the cable is attached. Buttons are always the same. Vol +/- then power until I see the screen show something. Then release power.
Well my friend, u flashing the i9000 rom to ur fone is the problem. They button set up is different they have a big menu button in the middle and we dont. That y u cant move it at all.

make sure your phone can get into download mode before flashing a i9000 rom. If your phone is able to get into download mode before flashing a i9000 rom then it's general impossible to brick your phone by flashing a i9000 rom. After flashed to a i9000 rom, to get to download mode, you hold "volume down" + "soft home key" + "power button" for 3 seconds. If "volume down" don't work, try holding "volume up".
I have done it many times with i9000 roms...the "soft home key" is the touch home icon on the bottom of our Vibrant.

ok so thanks alot for all the help guys but i have one more question. How do I get it to original stock.. i flashed it like 4 times now and none of the roms I got seem to be the right one. The phone works fine but the volume buttons are flipped, when u press up it goes down and when u press down it goes up, so I know thats not the right one.. anyway i got those firmwares from here "http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9000.htm" btw u need to make an account to be able to see them. so my question is, can anyone tell me where to get the original stock firmware to flash with odin? oh and I did try Kies from samsung but the phone will not connect with that for some reason.. anyway any help is very much appreciate it
thaks

I honestly searched for it, and did find few posts but everytime I flashed the phone, it just didn't feel like the right one, so thats why I asked for help here.
Thanks for the link though, much appreciated.
same issue
So i am having the same issue...gonna try to get it into download mode and go back to stock. You (original poster) said you had the Android 2.2 build i9000XXJPH working in your device? I did'nt get that far, that is what has me stuck in this recovery limbo...how did you originally get it to work? And also assuming I work for T-MO, assume that 2.2 is coming out NO time soon!! This kind of is a bummer, I love the vibrant but I think I need to go back to a true android, I can't keep feeling left behind because Samsung cares more about friggin avatar then updating their phones.
Flash the froyo that dont brick your phone (search the forum), and after that flash the stock vibrant.
If you flash a ROM not meant for your phone I'm surprised you made it this far.
~SB
toast
Yea i was suprised I made it this far too....BUT now my vibrant is toast!! I had it back to stock, woke up this morning and accidentally accepted the J16 OTA from TMO, and now my phone is done done done....I cant get it to do anything, no lights, camera or action. So having no way to get back to download mode I think Im screwed. This was a problem from the gate, cause Samsung gave me the phone from a learning seminar and the 1st J16 MR soft bricked me. So at this point I have searced every forum I can find and I think Im screwed. NOw if I could only get ahold of my Samsung rep to see if they replace it for me....IF anyone has any strokes of genius to maybe help me out please....
Hi,
one day, I changed the permission of /system/font by accident:
e.g. I changed:
.............read....write.....execute
user.........V........V...........V
group.......V.....................V
others......V.....................V
to
............read.......write......execute
user........V..........V..............
group.......V.........................
others......V.........................
After that, I can't turn on my phone anymore T.T
When I press the power button, the LG logo appears, and then vibrate, logo disappear, after a few seconds the logo comes back and that's it!
It just stays there (I waited for 2 hours and it didn't change,so I turned it off)
Please help~
How can i fix it...

Enter download mode, and flash your firmware like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2409308 or just open LG Mobile Support Tool and select "Recover Phone". It does the same thing but it's easier.
Nothing's lost, you'll get it fixed.

My guess is 20A is ICS, 10C is the first release of Gingerbread, and 10E whatever update they did to it. If you're not sure, go with the LG Mob Supp Tool, it's safer and easier.

Did it work before with the exact firmware update you had? Remove the battery of your phone and re-insert it (don’t turn it on). Press and hold Volume Up button and Volume Down button. While you are pressing the two buttons, press the Power button or insert USB cable (try both if it doesn't work). Or try with: phone off, volume down + insert cable. I don't know the exact combination for your phone.

try vol down+power
when keys light up, touch menu key (vibrates)
Even if you can't go to download mode you'll still be able to use kdz on it. just plug it in and start it. And btw, be careful next time. My Optimus L7 got hard bricked and I needed to go to LG for them to fix it.
Ok, so I installed the LG G Pro 2 ROM, had it rooted and ofc had stock recovery ... My Wi-Fi (for some odd reason) didn't want to turn itself on, so i tried to restart the phone .... It got stuck in a bootloop, so I'm having following problems ... I entered stock recovery and tried to wipe the rom, no help, still stuck in recovery .... Can't access download mode to flash a KDZ file, since I cant really "shut" the phone down, rather just "restart" it by long pressing the power key, and if i try to hold the vol up button while connecting it to the computer to enter download mode, it fails every time and it just goes to the LG logo and get's stuck there .... Can I somehow shut the phone down completly or flash a kdz file from stock recovery ?
Edit: OK, I somehow did shut it down completly ... I think i held all 3 buttons at the same time for like, 10 - 15 secs and it did shut down completly ...
So - sorry for the thread, mods can lock it!

download mode. try holding power button down for 20+ seconds. now hold volume up button while plugging in usb cable.
such friends have a big problem with my G2 I want meti up the volume on the stock rom kit kat and so we change the audio xml file I saw in a tutorial here in HTCMania, but restarting the phone will stay locked in bootloop where it says tmobile.
then proceeded to do hard reset thinking that would be solved well but after performing hard reset STAYING was still locked.
well I'll have to reinstall the software and told me when I headed to want to put the phone in download mode (off the phone and press Vol + connect usb cable) to my surprise the phone did not enter the download mode. the only thing it does is connect the cable to charge on and get off.
and since then I can not find a way to revive him because I can not install the software, and "NO I HAVE INSTALLED A CUSTOM RECOVERY" so do not'm desperate someone could throw me a light? if somehow you could do enter download mode on the phone in an alternative way?
my device is a rooted

First i would try getting in to recovery using the hardware keys. Look it up on you tube. Then you should be able to use a back up if you made one.
To get in download mode you need to power off then while powering on hold the vol down key and plug in the usb cable. That will get you in download mode. You shouldn't have to do that though if you have a back up. Your phone isnt bricked?

sorry friend, but is that as explained in the previous post: long press volume + but does not go into download mode, this as locked or not happens.: Llanto:

Press and hold power and volume down until the display shuts off and the LG logo appears. Then, try pressing and holding volume up and volume down until a hard reset option appears. Reset the device and try booting it up. You will lose all data on it, but that's what you get if you're not smart enough to back it all up.

A hard reset will not help if he made changes to the system partition (which it sound like he did). If he has a recovery installed (kind of a weird sentence in the OP) this would take him into the custom recovery though.
@tuberodx7 If all else fails I'm convinced you can get it into download mode if you do it right, something like that should definitely not kill that. From there you can flash a factory image (Search for the return to stock thread in the General forum)... Your device is far from hardbricked, please do your research...
THis is general thread. Post it at Q/A.

Ok, if you're absolutely definitely positively sure you're doing it right and it still doesn't work, you might have to manually reflash some of the partitions... Refer to this thread (and be careful) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142

does it boot into system? not .
you tried all different ways pressing the keys.?
you may need to use skr tools to install twrp..
Try press Volume Up + Volume Down after the LG logo appears (this must happen only if you first press Power + Volume Down to power on the phone and get the LG logo)
