dont panic!.. remove and replace the battery.. press up + down vol then plug USB cable. you will get the same screen but you will hear a sound from your computer that the usb is plugged in. then flash again.. once its completed it will back to normal.

Yes try restarting your pc
Open odin v1.7
Take battery out, put battery back in
Then Hold up + down volumn keys then plug usb
You will/will not get the downloading screen but don't be scared
Look on your odin flasher and make sure it is connected to com 3 or com 5(it will be highlighted in yellow), if it is then your good
Put the deodexed kc1 file in the pda tab and make sure re-partition is unticked
Then hit start, might take a bit longer but it will surely revive your phone
Hope that helps

Mine worked on com4. The com number is of not importance.
i had the same issue
Unplug usb
Reset odin.
Reload file on pda
Reconect usb
Try again to flash
If it continues failing, download the rom again

still waiting halfway downloaded. after is done do i wipe data, cache, dalvik or just restart!
Can wipe if you want I didn't and it flies
now am stuck on the galaxy s 4g logo!!!
I used Odin 3_v1.0 and it worked. You need to remove the battery and reflash with Odin. If you get the phone and computer symbol just remove the usb cable, re start odin and connect the cable to your phone and try again. You do not need to remove the battery. I was able to flash my that way.
now when i try to install it fails right before its almost done weird!!! tried it 4 times already same thing every time!

Close Odin. Disconnect phone. Pull battery. Put battery back in, while holding both volume buttons plug in cord. It will show the error on your phone again. Start Odin again. Load rom in PDA section. Click start. You can wipe user data and cache. And click reboot. Then give it time to rebuild. Ten minutes. The reboot again to clear up bugs.

When you flash with Odin just leave it alone for awhile. While its flashing give it ten minutes. When its done it should be in recovery. Then just hit the power button to reboot.
If it doesn't work you have other issues. Did you flash it with a pit file? Do not flash this phone with a pit.

Yes i did some guy put up a pit file and i flashed it and my phone went blank!

has this problem already came up if so I missed it a link would be nice to fix my phone Thanks
I could be misunderstanding your problem here but I think i had a similar issue... first of all make sure you're holding down the power button long enough to boot up. Seems to take 4 or 5 seconds with this phone.
Also when I had the issue i took out the bat, put it back, plugged into a wall charger and then held the power button that worked. But I think really my issue was impatience not holding the power button the first time long enough.
no i am the screen wont say updating or whatever when i hold the up and down button but it looks for a driver ?? and installs the Right driver
helpppppppppp your way to the search button.
Thread moved to proper forum.
You only hold volume down and power. I had the same issue. Holding both volumes will cause the phone to not boot.

So you flashed the recovery before you rooted. Try reflashing the original recovery. I don't know if that will work. You should have rooted then flashed recovery.

thats what im doing now but gewt stuck at waiting for bootloader to int for some reason
Well your g2x will never go out of the updating screen you have to wait until one click says it has transfered the file. Wait a minute or so after that and unplug the USB and put your battery back in the I would do a master rest.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
thing is my lg screen is black can i still root with a black screen ? like i said only action i get out of the g2x is if i hold the vol up And Down and plug it in then i hear the sound of the computer finding it witch gives me hope
I would try recovering recovery befor trying to root again. I would do the nvflash but pick the original recovery instead of cm. Then after that master reset by original recovery which is hold power and down volume. Recovery will rest your rom. Rooting puts you root permissions I believe into a different partition any ways that's how a master reset does not wipe them. Your problem sounds like more of a recovery issue then root.

It is problem is it stays at Waiting for Bootloader int how long should that be there?
are you holding the volume buttons down and plunging in the usb before you select the version? you have to continue holding them the whole time. should pick it up in matter of seconds.
I think i BRICKD it.....
I was performing a Restore to STOCK using Odin 3 v 1.7 and the GTG's UNBRK files from here.
The process failed while the phone was in Download mode.
Now all I get is
An icon which looks like
A Cell Phone ........Exclamation Mark (in orange).......... Computer
The phone is not responding to any of the buttons:
1. No power down... I have to remove the battery and then no matter what I do, power on or else, it shows the same icon
Any one else been here?
Any way to FIX this or am I SOL?
I believe this is in the wrong forum but I understand your panic. Don't take my word for this but I believe you need a USB jig to get out of this. Or unless try this:
1. Pull battery for 15-20 seconds
2. Re insert battery
3. Hold volume up/volume down while plugging in USB cord from computer
4. If it succeeds you should be in download mode!
P.s. Sorry if you have already done this, i'm just attempting to help you troubleshoot

Thank you for the suggestion. Yes, that is the exact thing I am seeing and No, that Vol Up + USB insert still gives the same icon.

Uhh, I haven't gotten stuck on that on my Infuse I don't think, but with the Captivate the solution was to hold vol + and - and power at that screen until it rebooted, then let go of power and it would fall back to download mode.
And yes, this is not development and should be in the general section.

Yes, I meant to write Holding BOTH Vol+ and - and USB insert.
Here are the steps that I got me here... one step is completely stupid....
1. Yesterday, I was trying to get 3e recovery, so got the zip file
2. MISSED this step - of Copying the recovery file to SD Card.
3. Renamed the old recovery in the bin folder to _old
4. Rebooted and then used the ROM Manager to reboot into Recovery.... Bad idea - The phone went blank....
5. Only solution I saw was to ODIN in the GTG's Ultimate unbrick.....
6. Went into Download Mode....
7. ODIN sees the COM Port.
8. Loaded the .pit and other files per instructions....
9. Pressed START
10. ODIN reports failed.
11. Unhooked the USB and HARD rebooted.... Arrived at this icon.
Yes, i am a noob and am paying for my mistake of overlooking a step.
You could possibly try heimdall... do you have kies installed (only needed for drivers)? Hmm, I couldn't help you any further w/o actually being there
Definitely keep me posted!
I have bricked my phone a few times now . Same error screen and everything, just do the vol + and vol - down trick , let it boot to the error screen and startup odin 1.8 or higher. That part is very important. Odin 1.8 will recognize it as a serial device and write the software . Good luck!
I've been in that icon, but I just tried back with Odin gtg's unbrick and it went through perfectly as always. I got there because I forgot to select the pit file and Odin started to download and it failed.
I think that symbol is the same download mode but in this case you must use Odin because the phone can't startup itself. Just don't panic if it worked for me then it would work for you.

weird because I have used odin 1.7 with success each time..
Oh yeah, that error screen is a download mode isn't it? I forgot about that. So just use unbrick from there or flash something else you want.

Yeah, that error screen is download mode, just like the usual "Construction Android" screen, with one difference:
The phone is forcing download mode because it knows it's hosed up. It's saying "flash something with Odin or you're not going anywhere".
So you're already in download mode - no need for button combos, the phone realized you needed it and went straight there for you.
BTW this doesn't belong in Development.

Those symbols only mean that it did not finish the last operation/flashing
Its the same as download mode.
So go back into those "Cell Phone ........Exclamation Mark (in orange).......... Computer"
Which is download mode and start a new flash of the Ultimate Unbrick.
Good luck, be sure to to put PIT to PIT PDA to PDA and PHONE to PHONE
in odin!!!
GOOD NEWS.
That was simple... Followed the suggestions from Nopcodex90 , Mrjunky and all....

This phone is never really bricked, ive flashed a wrong bootloader using heimdall and nothing would turn on and i was still able to odin back to stock.
I had an issue with my phone and basically had to start over. I took the FP1 upgrade. Now I have tried several times to odin the correct recovery so I can get back to where I was before the issue. Nothing is working. I keep getting the stock android recovery system. Help Please!

You need to reflash cwm with Odin the stock recovery overwrites cwm when your on the stock ROM

After you Odin CWM, you need to immediately boot into CWM and flash a non-stock kernel. Stock kernels will overwrite CWM with stock recovery if they boot into the OS.
When you Odin cwm make shire autorestart is not checked. Odin cwm unplug phone take battery out. Put battery back in boot directly to cwm by pressing home, Vol up and power. Hold until Samsung logo comes up the second time then let go. Now you're in the flashes cwm go install superuser, then reboot . Install "root explorer" , sum privileges should b allowed , go to "system" folder find "recovery.sh" file, it has a yellow star. Click on the "Mount R/W" Press and hold on the recovery file till menu pops up, go to "permissions" uncheck all the boxes save and exit. Shut down phone, go to download mode with Odin flash cwm again make shire autorestart is not checked , unplug take bat out. Put bat back startup. You should be able to go to cwm any time now.
This is from one of the posts I read and memorized. Thanks go to whoever figured it out.

Power the phone down completely. Pull the battery. Hold volume down while you plug in the USB cable. When it comes up in download mode, put battery back in.
This instruction, step 5.
What I do to get my download screen is : bat out , vol down, power then plug in cable (count) 1 and release power but hold vol down until download mode pops up. Then put battery in. That's the only way it works for me. Some ppl hold both buttons until download mode pops up, that don't work for me. Others can get it by pressing buttons n piping in battery and then connecting cable. Try some of these. I figured out my just by chance my finger slipped cause most can do it by pressing both buttons holding and plugging in. If I do it that way my phone either reboots or nothing happens.

Don't use the power button at all to get into download mode. Just remove the battery, hold down volume down, and plug the USB cable in. It'll automatically power on. Then you should put the battery back in to help ensure a better chance at a clean flash.
it wont load past the Galaxy SIII splash screen. Im running CM10 stable and Faux kernel. Just need to know what to do to undo my stupidity.

Pull the battery out so the phone is off
Place the battery back in.
Hold Volume down + Home, then press and hold the power button.
You should be in download mode now.
Now, load ODIN on your PC.
Plug your Cable from your PC to your phone.
Install the RUU from ODIN in PDA mode, select, "Run".
This is how I would fix the problem. Anyone care to confirm?

So what did you install? Link please? If you just downloaded an app, you should be fine just booting into recovery and wipe/reinstall CM10. Pull/reinsert the battery, hold volume up, home, and power button until you boot into your custom recovery then wipe/flash away.

Chainfire 3d is a graphics program and drivers thats supposed to make graphics output better/different. Oh and its appatently not for ICS or JB. They say if you run into a no boot or a boot freeze situation you have to re flash your firmware. That, im assuming is the. tar file that slimsnoop is talking about. Can i just reflash this stock tar or do i also need to do the two bootchains? Will i lose root?
