I tried using odin to go back to jf6 and its all good until it says Do not turn off target. then it stays there and when i try to reboot my phone is bricked, any advice. also please dont close this topic, i cant post in the development forums and all i want is some help. so how do i get out of a brick and odin i897ucjf6-final-ocd isnt working?
Is it hard or soft bricked? Soft bricked phones are not difficult, in fact, I'm working on a one-click unbrick for soft bricked phones right now.
If it's hard-bricked, black screen, acts like it's off, then you've got no choice other then JTAG or repair center.

Yes, I've seen this too and it scared me a little the first time. It's most likely just a soft-brick. I take it you see some icon about Phone != Computer? I had this problem using Odin One-Click for JF6 when I didn't follow the instructions exactly because I thought some steps were unnecessary. Try this:
1. Power off unit and remove all connections.
2. Remove battery, sim card and SD card.
3. Connect USB cable to computer.
4. Start Odin One-Click
5. Re-insert battery only.
6. Hold down Vol up+down.
7. Connect USB cable to Captivate while still holding volume buttons.
8. Start the Odin download.
And you should now be back it download mode and loading up JF6. Once it reboots, you should have a Stock AT&T Captivate.
If other versions of odin3 or oneclicks don't work try A10 TOOLBOX/ CAptivate toolbox. Used it over 50 times with all different. Revision versions. Works like a charm. alot of Galaxy s / varients are cursed with this Odin/computer dreadful recognize problem. Also keep in mind Odin may choose to only work for one particular USB port. Gotta play around alot

It's actually AIO Toolbox. Love the tool. It's a great tool to help people flash ROMS if they need a little help.
AIO Tool Box
have you restarted your computer? I have to do that occasionally in order to get odin to start working again.

Hello,
Im running Froyo on my Galaxy S. And recently I tried to install ryanZA's one click lag fix. When doing this it said its rebooting and finalizing but the phone turned off and when starting it stops at Galaxy S welcome screen and start vibrating time to time after that. Screen disappears but the phone keeps on vibrating time to time.
The reason I was trying to install this was my notification bar, it gets stuck most of the time and I was trying to get rid of that. In most places I read that its a memory issue and the lag fix would fix it if it was installed.
I installed the one click lag fix from the market, it needed rooting. then again from most of the suggestions I installed z4 root on the phone. It worked.
And while I was trying to apply the one click lag fix and it rebooted, it wont boot. welcome screen comes and goes, and after half an hour its till vibrating with 20 second interval.
Please help me, im very scared that I bricked my phone.
What can I do to fix this?
You need ODIN. here---->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821625 (only works with windows OS) You need samsung drivers installed.
You need to get into download mode. Hold down both volume buttons and plug in usb cable(while cable is plugged into computer), that should get you into download mode.
If you can get into download mode, and odin recognizes your phone, download these files here--->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475 and put them in their respective places.
Hit start and done, let the phone reboot.
Try looking around here something in here might help you out if you get stuck. http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=708
**Edit these files are only for the Vibrant SGH-T959**

Hello, thanks for your reply. I see what you mean by this, but do I really want :
T959 (US T-Mobile version of the Galaxy S)?
Mine simply is not this - bought it unlocked in UK as Galaxy S.
Will it be the same?
thanks

NOT only got it working =, but after extensive research I installed speedMod kernel, that will probably solve all my problems.
Thanks tho.
Ok, I will Assume you have a I9000 Galaxy S phone. That is the European phone
You will need to Odin back or use Heimdall to get back to Stock, 2.1 variety of some sorts. Check the development and general section in the I9000 forum. You will get all the info and files needed to accomplish this.
Then Once you have it back to stock 2.1 , then root the phone/ Then Download Rom manager. From there you will be able to do anything you want to the phone.
Do not use Ryanza lagfix use Voodoo it is preferred for this phone over all others. Also, All the new Custom Roms usually have it pre-installed already.
You will need the following files:
Samsung drivers for the computer
Stock 2.1 Tar File
Pit 512 (this is for mapping) file
Odin 1.7 or higher
After you are in stock Then you can then root/ download rom-mgr/ then flash any Custonm rom of your choice (Like Darky's9.3, etc)
Good luck
Cheers
Thank you.
The problem has been solved by going into recovery mode and doing a factory reset. All DATA has been sacrificed.
Then i flashed it with speedMod kernel. Its much better now.
Thanks for the reply anyway.

Try Odin 1.85 then take the battery out of your phone plug USB cable into your computer hold the volume keys up and down simultaneously plug cable into your phone meanwhile your still holding down your volume keys then put your battery back in. Be sure to have Odin files already placed where they belong and make sure you get them from a post that has alot of positive feedback,preferably one that has a good step by step how to instructions, you'll find all you need to know in the sgs4g Bible everything you need to know is in those Bible posts good luck to you it sux not having your phone believe me I've soft bricked and boot looped my phone several times even after successfully flashing firmwares several times correctly don't ever get to comfortable flashing one little mistake is detrimental to the life of your phone good luck bro.once you place your phone back into proper working condition make sure to flash Dr.honks kj1 kernal with voodoo lag fix cwm recovery and root permissions pre installed that really helps prevent the use of having to use Odin or heimdall to revive your phone again.then flash away but carefully and aware always of what files you put into your phone.

It got stuck at factory.fs (don't remember the name actual name). It stuck there for so long, maybe like an hour. Then I decide to unplug and pull battery out. close the Odin and redo the step again. This time the status bar went half way and then got stuck again. I left it overnight just to see if it's actually finish and it never did. Just stuck there. Turn the phone on and i only see light on the button. Is my phone dead? I can still able to get to download mode but the phone won't boot.
I done return to stock so many times and was successful. This was the first encounter I had where Odin stuck and never complete it flashing.
Try things like reinstalling the drivers, another pc, another usb cable etc.
Thanks. Will try that and also i will try this [ODIN][UCKD5] Odin - Stock (100% or Root+3e) - (Update 06/05/11) since on FAQ #4 seem to be in my case. But if members had other recommendation, please post. thx in advance

Getting stuck on the factory.fs is pretty common here. You might try charging for a bit to see if you can get it to show signs of life. And that link up there^^^(UCKD5 Stock+Root+3e) has worked for me when gtg's didn't. Read the instructions for it carefully as you don't have to check as many boxes. You only need to load the file into the PDA slot. Also if you didn't have the drivers installed your phone wouldn't show up, so that's not your problem (although you could try re-installing them for **** and giggles)...
If THAT doesn't work try Adam's Heimdall one click HERE
If all else fails try a different PC. I had to and it worked like a charm.
Good Luck

Some times just trying a different USB port on the same computer will help to. Not sure why but on my laptop the USB port on the right my Captivate did not like for flashing but the one on the left side always worked right.
Thank you all for helping me out. My infuse is now back in business. I use [ODIN][UCKD5] Odin - Stock (100% or Root+3e) - (Update 06/05/11) but this one got my phone to always boot in recovery mode no matter what i did. So i decide to try Heimdall One-Click Back-To-Stock UCKJ4 + Easy CWM install [2.3.6] (FOR AT&T USERS) and then flash LinuxBozo's Defuse 1.5 kernel. Successfully flash it . However after using Heimdall One-Click, ODIN did not see my phone when it's in download mode. Besides that, everything went well.

Hey community.
Long time lurker, first time poster.
Anyhow, my brother bricked his infuse last night. Apparently he tried to flash an incompatible cwm fw (Nexus S) and rebooted it, and now its stuck at the samsung logo. Secondly, i tried to push it into download mode and it continues to loop. I tried to connect it to Odin and it does not recongize the phone, however it freezes at a picture of a wheel (similar to windows hourglass) and doesnt move from there.
i'm assuming its perm bricked at this point, unless you have suggestions.
Others have mentioned "jig" and "unbrickable mod" although I could not find any details further than the terms.
Any help would be appreciated.
Just checking, have you tried this?:
Remove the battery, and disconnect USB.
Hold, and continue to hold both volume keys.
Continue to hold vol. keys, connect USB.
Insert battery and continue to hold vol. keys for awhile.
That should put you in download mode.

Lol next time try heimdale. It for me anyways works first try all the time. I only use Odin when i have to, other then that i always use heimdale. Make sure when you use heimdale plug your phone into another port. Ive figured out that a usb port only recognizes the phone a certain way, as heimdale uses different drivers that you install. On my laptop i have two ports that i do not usually use (one is dedicated to a bluetooth dongle/mouse) so one is set up for odin, the other for heimdale.
Yeah heimdall is the way to go...don't even need drivers...it uses its own special drivers that it will download for you if you don't already have them
Heimdall never fails me...but Odin...well Odin is kinda iffy

This is how i used the hemidall one click to stock here is what I do, below are how i perform using qkster's method...
The USB + Volume Down + Volume Up Method: Download mode (Noticeable by an Android robot digging with a shovel) is reached by taking everything out (Battery, SIM, MicroSD). plug in the USB cable to your computer and phone then putting in battery at the same time Holding the volume buttons both up and down, (Don't press the power button at all in this method).
How to INSTALL:
1. Put your phone into Download Mode.
2. If you have not used Heimdall, you will need to set up the driver for device recognition.
3. Once your device is connected, the DEVICE STATUS should show: CONNECTED. The long FLASH bar will also turn on for flashing.
4. Click on the FLASH button. (In my opinion: I recommend that you do this in a safe environment. Do not disturb your phone will flashing this firmware. Turn off Antivirus. Do not run any other programs, upload/download/youtube/burning DVD etc)
5. Once it has completed, your phone will reboot. You will hopefully see the ATT logo and reboot into STOCK UCLB3.
6. If it did not work, you will have to put it back into DOWNLOAD mode and reflash a second time, with the FLASH BOOTLOADER box checked. This is more likely if you never had proper Gingerbread bootloaders on your phone, if you are coming from FROYO or if you never had Odin a Gingerbread leak to get your bootloaders.
download this file for your one click to stock...and using above directions...
once that is done and you want to put CWM mod on for flashing a custom ROM, same directions to get in to download mod...

samsung i997 bootloop no bootloader solution
Dear guys i'm not saying this will be everybody's case but in my shop we got two of this phones with the issue mentioned above, in the two cases the issue was caused by faulty power button, so before you format or flash your samsung i997 i'll advice to go to youtube search for a diassemble video for your phone take out the main board and with your tester verify that your power button is working properly. If not try to replace the power button. i have soved the two cases that way.
Ok so made a big mistake and tried flashing back to a Gingerbread Rom after being on a Jellybean Rom. I know dumb. Now my phone is stuck on the samsung logo. I can't reach download mode or Recovery. On top of that my computer will not recognize my device. I'm hoping to fix this soon as possibe! Any help would be much appreciated!

Look for Heimdall suite and follow the instructions in the read me to reinstall the driver. Then use a heimdall one-click restore image. That should fix it.
You should be able to enter download mode no matter how messed up your phone may be..
Remove battery and place back in.
Hold both vol+ & vol- and plug in the usb already inserted to the pc.

Any ideas where to find those reinstall driver instructions? The main heimdall post in the infuse community does not have any instructions regarding re downloading drivers I believe. And no there is no download mode. I don't know how that is possible but it is. Download mode is not working on my phone.
I would also like to know the outcome of this, my phone also lost download mode. I'm not sure what happened, I was on the web and it just shut itself off and decided to bootloop itself.
I am almost 100% sure you can't lose download mode.

My friend is unable to get his phone into download mode. His phone loops constantly from the Samsung screen to the CM screen and then back to the Samsung screen.
Pulling the battery and holding down the volume buttons does nothing. Connecting it via USB just brings up the battery screen, but that loops as well (shows the 'thinking' icon then the battery screen). Odin does not recognize it, not sure if he's tried Heimdall yet. But even if he can get that to recognize it, will it do him any good if the phone is constantly cycling power?
As others above have stated, it is not likely you have lost download mode, most likely not performing all of the correct steps. If you do the steps properly and there is no download mode you will need to buy a jig ($2.) , can be found on Amazon.
Once you can achieve download mode, follow qkster's Heimdall instructions, post 1 will get you back to stock GB, and post 2 will get root access again. If you have Kies installed, uninstall it before doing anything else as it is a source of issues.
Note that you must have the latest version of Java. Also, use the same usb port on your computer each time you run Heimdall, be sure that it is a properly operating usb port as well.
Many thanks to qkster for the guide and Entropy for the kernel.

as Pony stated. The other reason we've been seeing the constant power loop is due to a stuck power button. You may need to take it apart and clean the power button.
Look thru the q/a threads...lately, the power button thing has been pretty common

Agreed! I've borked mine something awful before (namely, being careless and trying to go back to GB from JB) and losing IMEI, no recovery, etc. and could still get DL mode. I too had issues with Heimdall, albeit different, but if you use the same usb port (pull batt, plug usb in, hold vol. up/down....then put batt. in and continue to hold until DL mode)....go to control panel/system/device manager and find USB/samsung composite device, right click and update drivers. This is if Heimdall isn't working for you, use Odin v3 and flash GTG's back to stock. It will take you back to froyo unrooted. If Heimdall is working, like others have stated....be sure to have the latest java installed.
edit: If you can use Heimdall, it will prompt you to install correct drivers once you start the program.

Thanks guys for the quick replies (that I just now saw, lol... whoops!). His power button is actually broken on the board itself. He's made his own jig and gets it to boot up, but the phone itself is pretty much done as he's not able to do anything without the power button. He's looking at picking up a SII probably.

Even with the pwer button broken, if the screen is still intact, a new replacement screen is closer to $135+.
He may be able to sell that screen pretty quickly for $75-$100.
His screen is trashed too, so he's pretty far up the creek without a paddle.
He's trying to sell it on eBay for parts currently. We'll see how that pans out.
