Hello - I urgently need help with my Samsung Galaxy Tab.
I flashed a wrong PIT/PDA & what happened is:
- my Galaxy Tab does not reboot at all
- the flashlight in the back suddenly switched ON automatically
No matter how long I press the Power Button, the device switches off just for one second, and then the flashlight switches ON again - but no reboot.
I cannot get into download mode / when I try to use commands with Odin, it only says: error: device not found.
Odin does show my device ([COM:4]), it appears as: Added // only the download mode does not work!
When I tried to start SuperOneClick, trying to Unroot, it is stuck with: "Waiting for device"
Weirdly, though, my netbook does install the drivers automatically when I plug it in. Which means, my netbook can "read" the device.
Does anyone here know how I could make the extreme Hard Reset, without having to reboot?
--------------------------
If you think this post should rather go to the Developers section, please feel free to move it // I am thankful for any help
Have you tried connecting to it with ADB to see if you can reach it at this level (apart from with SuperOneClick)? Try installing the Droid Explorer application on your Windows PC and see if it will recognise your Tab. If it will you should be able to initiate a reset from the Droid Explorer UI. If it won't I would suggest that you are hard bricked and it will have to visit Samsung. Good luck!
Hello,
thank you for your advice.
adb does not detect my device ..
and, unfortunately, neither does Droid Explorer
Just find it so strange that ODIN does ..
but like you said -
I am also afraid, that this is a "hard brick" & I will go see the retailer tomorrow.
Thank you, though, for offering help.

If Odin sees it, its not bricked. What image is on the LCD when Odin sees it, or is it blank?

I guess the problem here is that even if Odin sees the USB device connected, if the Tab won't go into download mode then it's as good as bricked. With the SGS you can construct a USB jig with a 301k resistor between pins 4 and 5 of the micro USB to push the device into download mode if it won't respond any other way. I wonder if a similar thing would work for the Tab... Sounds like a challenge for someone who has two Tabs and doesn't mind experimenting a bit with one of them.

lol, I'll get my cheap Chinese Tab cables this week and hack one up to test.
My guess is that Odin will only see the Tab when it is in download mode. Id try flashing it in that state and find out for sure. It sure cant hurt.
You went to your retailer?I have exactly the same problem!!
First of all - THANK YOU for having started this discussion.
Yes, I went to the retailer. My Galaxy Tab is with Samsung Technical Support now; will keep you posted.
To answer some earlier questions, yes ODIN did recognize my Tab; but the screen on the Tab remained totally black. Only this strange "flash" light on the back kept glowing.
rotohammer, if you really get to test what you mentioned before, I'd be interested to hear what happened - but, personally I would not recommend it, unless you are sure you want to risk completely ruining your dear Tab.

I did ... and less than 2 weeks later ..
Update:
13-Jan-2011
Today noon I got a call from my retailer my Galaxy Tab was ready to be picked up & I was really lucky: my retailer said the repair would normally cost EUR 650.-
.. as I had damaged the whole mainboard ..
but as the Tab was less than 1 month old, they were so kind to do it w/in my warranty - so I did not have to pay for it.
I'm very relieved, as you can imagine.
Got my Galaxy Tab back with a brand-new mainboard, everything is working well &
I sure learned my lesson.
I will not flash the Galaxy Tab again.
Only because Galaxy Tab and Galaxy i9000 are both on Froyo, it does NOT mean that you can flash the same software!
I wanted to apply the 3 button combo fix on my Galaxy Tab but apparently it does not work!
Bricked mine as well, but mine is a weird case
I bring up the weirdest case of bricking so far, i was on an official Arabic (P1000JPJK2)Firmware, and i noticed a new Arabic release on SamsungFirmware.com (P1000JPJM3) i downloaded it and downloaded the .pit file, Started Odin v1.7 and unchecked repartition, selected the PDA and the pit and started the processes, odin finished and Reseted the device and give me the green light with the word PASS, however, the my p1000 decided to reboot into download mode automatically, so i rebooted the device manually and got stock in the Samsung Logo and keeps looping. so i decided to go back to my previous Rom but it will always fail and i would have to reboot my tab and it will show the good ol' Phon-PC logos, however, odin would see it and would flash anything i want. i tried flashing various versions of rom's but they would all fail... i tried repartition checked and unchecked and nothing worked, so lastly i decided to flash the .pit file alone and that worked and got me back to where i was stuck in the Samsung logo loop and no ROM would be flashed through Odin BUT the (P1000JPJM3) but it still will not boot! and funny enough i took it to sammy's repair shop and they told me to come pick it up in a few hours but they told me that they failed to repair it and they would need to keep it till tomorrow, but they guy was not that optimistic about getting it repaired and to make things worse i couldn't get unrooted so there is a good chance that there will be no warranty... does this mean that i bricked it for good? please help me.
The main Samsung Approved Service Center here in Kenya has just given up on my SGS 1900 UK Model Nov 2010, originally 2.1 firmware upgrade via KIES to Froyo 2.21 in March 2011. They have handed it back unfixed after a week. Cant find a problem like this on any forum/google. Can find one that is fixable with the resistor jig, but Samsung dealer says his jigs don't help:
1) Press power, on comes B&W Samsung GT I900 screen, then the mosaic graphic that resolves to the glowing big "S". Then it buzzes feebly. Eventually it goes black but keeps buzzing now and then. Power off works.
If you poke around trying to get it into 3 touch reset, the Menu and Back keys light up and stay lit.
2) 3 Touch reset will not work. Dunno if it ever did as never tried before.
3) Plug into USB charger, it charges fine and shows the charger icon.
4) Plug into KIES and after a lot of attempts, KIES identifies it + firmware and connects. I can see and save my contacts and it displays CONTACTS, INTERNAL SD and CALENDAR folders in KIES. No more
5) ODIN ( which I dunno how 2 use but have) sees the SGS's COM when I plug it to my comp.
6) The dealer claims to have tried to resart/reflash with Samsung jigs. He has handed it back with a "cant fix".
What the heck is going on here? Looks like I have lost a few hundred bucks and have to throw it away.
When did this start? Phone was working perfectly. Suddenly a solid red icon with large white star labelled "Web Page" appeared on home page but no such App was found in SETTINGS>ETC. In any case, "Web Page" just led me to a totally innocuous page I use all the time as a homepage on INTERNET app. A few starts and shutdowns after that ( the battery was getting low so swx'd on and off like 3 times over an hour), it just went into (1) above.
Phone is STOCK, no mods, no reflashes,no rooting etc
Thanks

if odin can 'see' you handset, have you tried flashing the ROM again? find a stock froyo rom from one of the threads here in the general section (click here) or download from samfirmware.com .
Once you have the rom files, kill all the KIES tasks using the task-manager in windows. Get your phone into download mode by pressing volume down+menu button+power button until you get the yellow screen showing the android working. then open odin 1.7 and connect your handset. once odin connects, click on the buttons for PDA,PHONE and CSC in odin and browse to the appropraite file which you've download in the rom. also click on the PIT button, browse to the odin folder and select the 512.pit file. Once this is done, check the main odin window to make sure the check-box next to 're-partition' is checked. click start and it should flash the new firmware for you.
Disclaimer: I do not take responsibility for any harm that may come to your phone during the flashing process. The instuctions above are accurate but are to be performed at your own risk.
flash Darky Rom 10.1 with JVO Modem . Best GPS i´ve ever had, and my GPS was really bad.

@frostygenius
I don´t think that your instrunctions ARE accuarate. You don´t even mention that he has to be in Download mode if he wants to use Odin. Also you advise to connect phone right after opening Odin and than insert the files, but some versions of Odin are known that they malfunctioning if you do this in this order, You should first insert files and set odin and after that plug in your phone.
And if he claims that he is on stock since bought the phone, so maybe he never used it before.
@peterg123
I´m not exactly following what happens to your phone. If I understand correctly the Samsung released defective ROM via KIES and after a week turn it down? But you already updated and now your phone is broken? If yes, I think that Samsung service center should repair your phone or if its serious damage than even replace it.
Is the phone able to boot-up and work properly? Is your recovery mode and/or download mode working? If the download mode (use 3-button combo - VolDown+Home+Power) is working then you can try recover on your own, but be careful, dont do anything before you are sure that you know what you are doing. You can go through this post before start [HOWTO] [REF] [FAQ] [Guides] [Tutorials] Flash/Root/ADB/ROM [MUST READ!].
Also go through the forum or samfirmware.com and find your official version of rom (Eclair 2.1) to be sure that you can anytime revert to this one because of warranty.
EDIT: Also can you please post some photos or video showing what happens to your phone?
Ok, I dunno if this is gonna help but I had a very similar issue when I first got my phone, within a week of owning it.
Points 1-3, exactly what happened mine.
Points 4 & 5 I didn't try, (was fairly new to Android)
Left it in to my local Vodafone shop & within 5 days I had it back in perfect working order, the maintenance report stated faulty hardware, the display module had to be replaced. Maybe worth mentioning to the service guy?

Thanks for the heads-up I forgot to mention those points. I've updated my original post.

Thanks, it is not possible to get into download mode, or I would have done all that. As explained, the phone will not go past the giant "S" logo ( 3rd screen after power on). This problem has happened to many people, worldwide.
As explained the three button default firmware does not work.
The Samsung repair agent claims to have used the 301k resistor method to restart the phone and even that failed. I am not sure if this is true but he said so.. not sure because everybody reports success with this.
ODIN, as I said ( 1.8) recognises the COM connection just as does KIES. The problem is, I am not in download mode so can't reflash if I tried.
I have used the phone for 10 weeks since firmware upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2 during which I had no problems except the occasional process stopped errors.
Hope this help, thanks for trying for me
Yes you are correct, I can't get download mode. The phone has never been reflashed or messed with. It came with 2.1 and using KIES in March I reflashed to 2.2 and it worked perfectly for 10 weeks until it semi-bricked.
There is the Black Screen of eath...then there is the pulsasing S screen of limbo! That's what I have.
The only harwdare clue I have is the SGS blew the fuse in my car charger shortly before "expiring"...yet if connected to USB or other charger, it charges the battery and displays the logo.

..But download mode doesn't display the S logo or even the first Galaxy S 1900 logo...it goes straight in.
Try looking up in the Development section - I'm sure there is a jig method in there and it might be worth trying yourself, you've not got mush to lose now.
If you can get into download mode eventually, search for and flash Ezbase, that will get you onto a rooted firmware and it works EVERY single time for me. Good luck.
@R34L2Pac
Hi, thanks. As posted, the stock UK model SGS 1900 with 2.1 Eclair worked perfect from Nov to March 2011, was firmware upodated by KIES in March 2011 to 2.2.1 Froyo and worked like a dream until it went "semi-bricked" with the "Logo of Limbo" screen ( the pulsating giant S) for no reason.
A week before this, I changed SIMs when I changed countries and for some reason lost all added apps. I had to re-install them and even then, sometimes twice as I got many "android process stopped" errors --- even on some of the Sansung installed ones like Layar. That is the only problem I ever had.
The phone has only had apps from Market and never been modded whatsoever. Many thanks
Hi,
You said that you can see a pulsating S logo, sound to me like your phone is bootlooping. But you didnt mention if you can get at least to recovery(VolUp+Home+Power)? If you can get into recovery, you could try just factory reset your phone from recovery and reboot your system.
Also in the development forum you can find some kernels which can be flashed via recovery (like speedmod K13 for Froyo), so you can try to flash this kernel and after reboot into CWM recovery you could try to connect phone to ADB and type the command "adb reboot download".
I read on the forum that the home-made jig method worked for everyone, so looks like the samsung technician was doing something wrong. It is worth trying to made one a see what it does. Also found this thread, where user cuperus claims that even with charger can be simulated the jig by heating-up your device. So you can also try it, just plug your phone to a charger, let it charge for 1hour and than try use 3-button combo to go to download mode.

Sorry I should have mentioned that it will not get into 3 button recovery mode, that has zero effect or rather, just sends it to the "Logo of Limbo" ( pulsating "S") just as does the power button.
Will maybe try a long charge time and see if that helps! Many thanks
Try en carefully learn hw to use odin coz I gt tha same exact model. I hav flashed mine many tyms en am on 2.3.4 XXJVP. if u do gt into download mode odin will sort u. Regards frm K.poly.

how long have you tried holding down the 'volume down+menu+power' keys? a simple quick press of the three buttons does not work. you have to keep holding them all down for a bit (sometimes upto to 15-20 seconds) for it to go into download mode.
Sorry for the fast answer but I'm at work atm... I think he needs to do the 3 combo button fix on his phone first. I know it's on the forum somewhere... Can anyone check it for him? I lost the 3 combo the first time I updated with Keys from 2.1 to 2.2 and I had to fix it using a program that I can't remember to go on download mode and apply that fix.
Then he can use Odin to flash a stock rom as he needs, plus having 3 combo fixed!
Good luck mate!

Possible fix for your problem
Hi peterg,
I was looking through the general forum and found this post, where user beamzuk1 describes method how he fixed his semibricked phone. Symptoms are the same (not booting, glowing soft-keys, vibrating, no recovery and no download mode). So he used 'adb reboot recovery', I would say that proper command is 'adb reboot download', but you can try both. Also go through guide HOWTO use ADB, which I posted here the link in earlier post.
Hope this will help.
PS: Try follow beamzuk1 step-by-step, because if you start phone earlier than you connect it to pc, adb might not recognize the phone. Also be sure that you have correctly installed drivers and android-sdk before you try this.
These phones come with a 2 year warranty. Why don't you contact Samsung directly yourself - telling them that the local repair centre wouldn't fix/replace it for you. If you did nothing besides what you described, then I would have thought you were entitled to have it fixed or replaced by Samsung.

Also think that Samsung should repair it or replace it.
The fact your repair center has done nothing to fix your phone, in several occasions, now entitles you to brand new replacement or your money refunded in full, contract terminated and expenses paid for your losses incurred as a result of their negligence.
Why not hit them up for the SGS 2.
I had the same issue with my first Galaxy S...wifi stopped working at first, I turned it off then on again but nothing changed. So I rebooted to see if it would correct itself. Bootloops and no 3 button combo (download or recovery)
Sent it off to Samsung through the Carphone Warehouse in the UK. I'd contact a Samsung Service Centre directly if I were you.
Initially i was able to get into Recovery Mode and was trap in Boot Loop but when i Flash a Rom from Dorky's with ODin 3 Even Boot Loop Goes away nothing appears except Black screen but can get into Download Mode

Start calm.
All you need is a cool mind now.
Search for the USB JIGGS available on xda and see if someone from your area has it. You can then take help from that person. If not then just go to service center, tell them that it stuck like this while doing software update and act like you no nothing about rooting our flashing. That will do.

Yes, offcouse.
Just let them be unaware of you knowing about root/cwm etc. just act dumb. If they get to know your warranty is already void, they will charge you money for repairing it.
Follow what bruce says..

The last 'n' only hope left is this:-
Install ur phone specific driver on pc.
1. Take out battery, sim & sd card.
2. Open odin.exe on pc.
3. After this, connect the phone via USB cable to PC(yes! without battery,sim & sd card)
4. Press the download mode combo keys.
5. While keep pressing all those keys, insert the battery now.
6. Now, odin should detect ur phone so that u may get it updated with stock firmware.
And if this also doesn't work, then bro u might have lost it at all

2 days ago a friend asked me to fix his J1 stuck in boot image. I gladly said yes for I've done it 4x already different units same model with satisfying results. This one is the exact opposite because after flashing with Odin and getting the Passed result, the phone didn't reboot. Actually it never booted right after that moment. System didn't recognize the phone not even a dim light or blink or any reaction from it even when plugged in a wall charger. tried all possible solutions even the galaxy tab procedure of total batt drain and so on. The firmware I got is from xda, J100MLDXU0AOB3_OLC0AOB5_v4.4.4_Repair_Firmware.zip, and I'm sure it's fine because I've used it already with good results...
Guys, any of you with a solution on this or any suggestions would be much appreciated... Thanks very much in advance!!! :fingers-crossed:

Can you get into Odin Mode? If yes, flash the stock firmware of your region (here is a fast server which provides very fast downloads: fw.updato.com) If no, then you should change your battery as you're saying "it came from my battery" and try the first step again.
If it doesn't help as expected, then your phone is hard bricked and can't be repaired at all. The only solution would be changing the motherboard, but I would not waste my money on a low-end device motherboard and I would directly buy a new phone. :/

If I am correct...
Then SM-J110H have Spreadtrum SC7727S
Here is Pinout for Direct eMMC...

This Pinout seems also to work with:
Code:
SM-G318HZ
SM-Z130H
I have leaked SM-Z130H PDF... where Instruction is inside to repair with tweezer... USB cable + Spreadtrum Tool:
Code:
[B]ResearchDownload[/B]
In theory something similar should be possible with SM-J110H...
I have at the moment only 1 problem... to create PAC file...
No idea from where I can get:
Code:
FDL1
FDL2
Best Regards
Edit 1.
Sorry, seems I was drunken...
It is sooo hard to find Posts or Threads about SM-J110H...
But it seems SM-J100H also Spreadtrum device...

Hey guys. I tried rooting my LG G4c but after rebootingen it seems that my phone is stuck in a loop, and i can't fix it.
What happens when i turn the phone on:
1. LG logo turn up
2. The following message appears:
[670] --------------------------------------
[670]
[670] Boot verification fail!!
[670] - cause : MISMATCH_SIG_LEN
[670]
[670] --------------------------------------
3. Phone reboots
Using the power button + volume down does NOT work anymore to start recovery mode (although starting the IMEI display still works).
I tried using LG UP to install the original firmware via USB but the device does not show up in the list (probably because the phone keeps rebooting itself). Some website also said to connect the phone with the pc, turn LG UP on, then put out the battery and put it back in to make it work, but that also didn't work.
Anyone know what i can try next? What method can i use to reinstall the firmware? And if it's not possible, does it cost much to repair and who should i ask?
Edit: It seems i can start "Factory data reset" but when this proces starts the phone restarts and continues the loop with the error message.
I also tried connecting the device with LG UP while the phone is stalled on the IMEI screen and the Factory data reset screen. This way the phone does note restart itself and it might appear in the device list of LG UP. But too bad it still didn't work.
I don't know if i'm reaching anyone who can help me, but even a answer from anyone saying that the problem is hard to deal with would already be very relieving I really can't find anything related to this problem on the internet and i'm noobish myself. I'm probably gonna visit a some phone shop down town in the next days because i really don't know what to do.

I had this problem too. I send it to LG and said the phone was unplugged during update process. They flashed it and I gave it to my mom. I have an S4 yet. Much better performance and rom support.
download mode
