ok so I flashed the i9100 firmware 2.3.5 to my sph-d710. Now I cant odin to recognize my phone to fix the mistake. It will boot up in download mode, and the screen to do a factory reset, but it wont let me select the factory reset because I dont have a keypad to hit the OK button... Any help would be greatly appreciated, I also tried klies but it wont recognize the phone in download mode or in recovery mode.

The ok button is the power button.
And for odin or kies, try redownloading the drivers. Then turn on odin and/or kies while keeping the phone off. Once its on, connect usb to computer and phone and go into download mode. If it doesnt work, try different usb ports. .

The power button is having no effect. I have re-installed the drivers already and klies and odin neither one are recognizing the device. actually when I plug in the USB the computer doesn't even make a noise as if something was plugged in.
The search get makes any text on the screen disappear and it only shows the android with a triangle that has a ! in the center.
Any other ideas?
Also this is a sprint phone, not t-mobile. Does that matter? I can scroll up and down between the options in recovery mode but I cant select anything. Odin still will not read the phone in recovery mode :-(
ya you are in the sgs 4g forum, but this should be an easy fix. you will need to use odin, find a rom that is for your phone and download it on pc. don't know your forum but they should have odin roms, if not then you will have to unzip the rom and flash. you will have to research how to use odin and what roms work with it. good luck

SPH-D710 (galaxy S2 epic 4G touch) is not the same phone as the SGH-T959V (galaxy S 4G). not even close.
I am having this problem and I do have a Galaxy S 4G. Did a factory wipe, re-installed usb drivers, restarted pc, ODIN doesn't respond to me plugging in my phone. Any suggestions?
Nevermind...i just realized someone raised an old dead thread

Basically when I boot my phone up, all it shows is an image of a phone, a sign with a ! in the middle, and the pic of a pc. Is there any possible way to fix this or do I have to send it back to tmobile? If it helps I dont think my phone is usb debugging mode either
You should be able to fix . try this.

Open Odin 1.7 on your computer and plug your USB into your PC. Now take out the battery and hold down volume keys while plugging in USB and putting battery in. Should bring you to download mode. Once in download mode download kd1 put it into PDA and go for it.
Note:it dosent have to show up in download mode to actually be in download mode. If it shows up a little yellow box means in your in download mode.
Best of Luck

I believe I have a similar issue, from Krylon's KD1 CWM, i Rezipped correctly, flashed, this this happened..
However, phone sits on Galaxy s4g boot up screen forever.. left it for 15 minutes now.
Also phone will no longer boot into CWM, looks like this may have bricked me.
Yes I did wipes, yes i followed the re-zip instructions correctly, yes I've flashed roms I know the drill.
Anyone know how to fix this? Or does this rom take forever on the first boot? 20+ minutes? doubt it...
And I cant boot back into CWM, Or stock recovery so i'm not sure how to fix this.
It literally either sits on the first Galaxy S 4g screen, or if i hold three button salute, it acts like it would normally boot into recovery, and cycles over and over with no recovery boot.
**UPDATE** Got mine fixed, odin+download mode
I got the drivers from this site and I had Odin running before I tried to put my phone into Download mode, Odin didn't not pick it up
So I got it figured out. You were right about using running Odin before hand, I just had to use a different usb cable. I brought my phone back. Thanks for all your help
I tried to install an update on my Galaxy S 4G to my Gingerbread theme on KD1 and I can't get past the original boot screen.....is there any way to boot into CWM? I installed it, except i can't seem to boot into recovery.
Any ideas?
I'd like to use ODIN as a last resort (and yes, download mode does work.)
If it doesn't boot pass the Samsung screen then you'll have to use Odin to fix. I had a similar issue this week with thay

Pull out your battery. With your phone unplugged put your battery in but leave it powered off.
Plug your phones cord in your PC. Just the cord not the phone.
Now hold just the volume up and down buttons. While holding the buttons in plug that cord from your PC into your phone. You will see a yellow triangle or if your firmware is messed a symbol with a small phone and a computer. You can use Odin either way. You will see Odin recognize the phone if its done correct and you have the Samsung usb drivers installed.

I know I have to be doing something wrong. I have read everything everywhere and have a Samsung Galaxy S 4G & Vibrant 3G T959 BOTH stuck in recovery. Haven't touched them in about a week buttons just checked & still they go through the load to the TMO chime then black or I can get to download & recovery but have mounting issues. The Vibrant was rooted & SGS lost root when flashing joedevelopers rom (placing no blame on thread just providing information for possible help).
I read somewhere yesterday about using NVFash or SuperOneClick to get it going but each search leads me to instructions for other devices. I don't want brick either phone using the wrong files so I'm pretty much stuck.
Would appreciate instructions if anyone has the answer. I really have tried everything. The SGS was stuck at the phone ! computer screen shot first but the reloading the drivers and piecing together some code brought it back & now the SD card is not ready.

It happens to me all the time. Just plug phone to computer holding volume up and down at same time. It shows the phone-cable-pc thingy and that's download mode. I went into that when I failed to Odin by mistake and just decided to try to Odin while in that "mode" and it did flashed. Hope this helped.
*Have Odin open before you plug cuz' that way you know it found the device.
*I think this method shown on Rootzwiki I discovered first but never posted. It happened while flashing 1st Audiophile. LOL... anyway, w/e. Good luck!

Try this even if the screen stays black/off, as long as Odin recognizes it (You'll get the yellow box with COM# in it) these steps will help.
Hi folks,

Even if your phone is shown the "Phone---!---PC" screen .. ODIN should still recognize it being attached to your computer .. My first SGS2 Skyrocket did this in which I was able to reflash back to stock using ODIN v1.85 .. however, my first SGS2 took a real crapper for some reason .. that even the USB JIG was unable to get the phone into Download Mode.
I now have a replacement in which I'm being REAL careful with .. LOL

Do you have usb Jig. If no than you can make ur own. Let me find you solution to ur problem. And if you have any other device that uses micro usb than try plugging the usb cable to ur phone and see if thats gets u in dload mode.

Morning y'all... having a similar problem... I was rooted but for some reason when in Recovery I'd only get Android Recovery??? I got CWM installed using ODIN (This is the tread I used... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1340526) . Then I went and tried to install miuiscotland_I9100-2.1.13... said install was complete... went to reboot from CWN... and nothing.
I tried pulling battery, going into recovery, download mode, the jig... and nothing... doesn't even look like it's charging... no spark at all?
So I have no phone as it stands right now.
Any comments, suggestions, hints, tips, tricks?
Thx.

You are hard bricked. You flashed a i9100 rom over a i727 device.
Only advice I can give is drop it in the toilet if you have insurance on the phone and get a replacement, or call your carrier's warranty department and tell them your phone just stopped working (not particularly ethical and you could get caught if they figure out it was rooted, but worth a shot...).
Oh, and the other advice is NEVER flash roms meant for devices other than the Skyrocket. Roms meant for the original S2 will brick your phone.

No need for a jig here (though it is good to have one anyways). If you get the "firmware upgrade failed" screen, just plug the phone in and if Odin sees your phone you can flash the stock tar. The "failed" screen won't look like it's doing anything but after Odin finishes you will be back to stock and life will be good again.
I have been around xda for some time, and today i made the most bonehead move. I accidentally flashed a Vibrant image through ODIN on the Galaxy S 4g. Dont know why i even thought of going into the Vibrant forum instead of the s 4g fourm. Needless to say, the phone is not working now. I assume it is Hard Bricked with no recovery in sight.
Is there ANYTHING you guys can recommend?
Does it do anything when you turn it on?
Can you get into download mode?
does the pc recognize it if you try the download mode button combo, even without the screen working?
Did you flash a bootloader or just a ROM?
