Hi folks,
I've been trying to install custom Rom using Odin to support a language which is not supported with android gingerbread 2.3.5! and it failed after boot.bin...Now, I'm stuck in the Phone---!---PC screen.
I am trying to get into download mode to be able to return to stock using this
Return to stock, fix soft brick :: 11/13: Rogers TAR!
my question: Could I flash while am on "Phone---!---Pc" screen?how can I get rid of "Phone---!---Pc" screen? or should I get USB jig to force into download mode? is it the best solution to restore to stock?
any help would be greatly appreciated !

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

You're safe .. put the TAR under PDA .. uncheck everything in ODIN except Reboot and let it rip.

You should be able to get into download mode by just holding volume down you may need to push the power button while holding it

I have tried to root my phone and I can't get it to get past the boot screen. I can get it to the download screen but I cant get anywhere past that...please help. I need step by step instructions please.

Go here it has the step by step instructions. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342348

Okay so I am having a similar problem. My phone will boot up and it says the "downloading a different os .... and then press volume up to continue and volume down to reboot" and when i press volume up i get a screen saying "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again". What do i do? Please and thanks

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.

Loaded this up last night.....not one issue to report. I happen to like touch wiz (as well as everything else) I hope you keep this ROM going in a stock like direction. Maybe if your plan is to change launchers etc you could branch off. Anyway....well done I love my phone!

sorry but have to ask. how did you get cwm on phone? I cant get download screen. figured it was the 2.3.6 UVLB7 build causing it. just got phone 5 days ago. had G2x piece before.

Can you give me more details in regards to your question? Have you lost the ability to get into recovery? I had the G2X as well....CWM is flashed pretty much the same way as the LG (except without the NVIDIA tool)
Things are not far enough along to have a reboot option in the ROMS yet, try power tool or something like it, works fine for me.

I wanted to amend this after ongoing usage and say things are still running solid. I did notice a lower quality audio performance as compared to dknight. Not a major concern this early in the game by any means.
The audio capabilities on Android was and is the big reason I am here and not on I-tunes so i'm particularly sensitive to that area. I run completely uncompressed FLAC's (1411 kb bit rate) and have a 64gb SD card on my phone loaded to the hilt.
My work phone is a GNEX (with Black Ice and Axiom Morphr) streaming through Google Play so I have back up ...lol

You must install ClockworkMod Recovery before flashing a ROM. I'm currently using this ROM. I can still access ClockworkMod Recovery by holding volume up, volume down, and power button at the same time, then release after Samsung logo disappears. Don't flash ClockworkMod Recovery in ROM Manager. See the thread below to know how to flash it.

I have done all this to my G2x piece of crap so it not new to me. On my new phone the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G SGH-T769. if I hold down the 3 buttons, vol up/dn and pwr, remove battery all that stuff I DO NOT get the "WaRNING" or download screen. It will only give me recovery screen after the Galaxy splash screen. I have tried every method available. I have tried every unlock I can find, oneclick and unlock and even Odin but it needs the download screen. It will not see phone till it totally boots. Was hoping you had something to install thru recovery screen to get to download screen. Have not tried ADB yet but have not read everything on how it works or what to do. Really have not found much info on ADB way to unlock.
So since everyone here is a lot more advanced than I am figured I would ask. Seems only a handfull of Blaze devices will not go into download mode.

1. Turn phone off and plug to pc
2.proceed to hold both volume and power button simultaneosly. Keep holding down until phone vibrates then let go of power button and continue holding volume buttons.
3. Let go of buttons as soon as u get to the next screen then press vol up to proceed to download mode.voila
P.s. I have the same baseband.
That should work for you, works for me all the time
If i helped in anyway hit the thank button
i just P.M you with a video on how to do it

no joy. this sux. tried every combo. exactly what you said. also tried removing battery... longer hold... shorter hold.. no sim or sd...throwing against wall while holding buttons. nothing works. all it does is continue to boot. :crying:
can there be a script or something written to do update from recover screen to make it boot to download mode? something..... or am I just stuck with jtag or adapter or whatever you call it.
What will adb do for me? can I root from it? will it help? I have not found instruct on what to do once in adb. found instruct on how to get to work but didnt see anything more. then again I did not fully look into it.:cyclops:

Good luck

Sorry. Have tried and tried. Total time trying this exact method and others over the past 2 days about 4 hours. Will not go into download mode. Have all of the above installed and ready to go on the computer. Can get odin to connect if phone is totally booted up in working mode but that does nothing for odin. Same with superoneclick and unlock root. The last two are not configed for 2.3.6 on blaze 4g or something so they will not complete the root/unlock.
If I remove battery with usb plugged in it will vib about every 3 seconds. Once battery is put in it stops vibing but once you hold button it will vib one more time then "samsung" comes across screen goes away then blaze spash on screen and it continues to boot. Never see "warning" screen or download screen.
I have no issues getting into phone from pc or phone connecting to pc. Just no download mode.
As I said i did not want to take over your thread with this and I feel I have taken up to much of our time as it is. Thank you for your help. Hope someone has solution soon. Thanks again.

Just tryin to cover all the bases here, but you should be holding both the volumes and the power button when you put the battery back in. Then be ready to release all to quick vol up when the dl screen shows up. You should also be connected via usb.
Hope this helps.

[Q] Samsung infuse has gone crazy bricked!!!

ok so i had paranoid android v1.5 and i wanted to update it so i came here and updated to v 2 i believe what ever the newest version of it thats out. ok well i moved the zip folder along with gapps zip folder over the sd card 3 button comboed it to recovery and installed zip from sd card wiped dalviche cache and all it said everything was go i rebooted and it went directly back to recovery this time it updated my cmw to v6 something all looked ok except it didnt boot up so i tried to install again and after that everything went black ... it took me 2 hrs to figure out how to get it to the samsung boot loop screen.. download mode not working also not my computer isnt picking up right it keeps failing...
Now for everyone else they say remove battery wait 2 mins. plug usb into pc then into phone and quickly install battery while holding volume up and down. i usually hold the power button plus volume buttons down then plug in usb and insert battery and then release power to get recovery .\
now i dont have recovery or download mode and for me to get the samsung boot loop i have to use this combo
everything out of the phone battery sim card sdcard everything... plug usb into pc then hold volume down (only) plug in usb and insert battery
and ill get bootloop.
if i hold all three buttons my phone stays black but the pc still shows up that the usb is still not good.... is this a brick i can come back from???!!
o and ive installed kies about 40 times and when i check in my device manager i get the unknown device i uninstall that . what should my device manager look like for a windows 7
also if i unplug everything and remove everything from the phone all i have to do is plug in the usb to the pc and it gets the malfunction error like it always does except it shouldnt be powering on.. unless that the charger failing to iniciate
HOW DO I FIX THIS????!!

I think to get to download mode you don't actually press all three buttons.
pull battery
hold down volume buttons
insert usb
inserb battery
download should start up.

okie dokie
okay well i waited 12 hr.s and tried again and i got it into download mode i downloaded the return to stock odin package uclb3 stock root
flashed it no problems with the flash now it wont read sims card also when i power the phone down to reboot it wont power up...it flashes the little loading circle really fast and then nothing.. download mode is easy to get in and ive tried flashing like 4 times now.. one of those times the sims card was readable but the phone would not reboot. idk whats going on

ugh its late...
okay after gtg unbrick flash and a factory reset i now have signal!!! now let me try to power down and reboot.... i hope it works lol,

holy wtf.....
okay well that was another fail.... everything seems to work fine except rebooting the phone..... now when i go into heimdall suite and run zadig to reinstall deivce driver and then find device and then print pit file it reboots the phone and everything seems fine.. idk whats going on....

Okay i fixed it. Im getting better at trouble shooting. Lol

Phone Stuck in Odin Mode (Help)

I tried flashing Recovery via Mobile Odin app, & now its stuck in every time I try to turn it on. I flashed philiz_touch_6.48.4-klte.zip.tar Someone please Help me to fix this Please. Can it be done from a computer? My phone's stuck saying Downloading Don't turn off!

This is what it says..

Please Help, I don't think its Hard Bricked.. Im Hoping its Fixable!

I had the same thing happen to me when I tried to flash a recovery using Mobile Odin. I am not sure what when wrong (Mobile Odin fault, or I flashed a bad recovery) but either way I was stuck exactly like you are. I recovered by downloading another recovery image and flashing from my PC using Odin. Once I did that the phone booted up normally and I did not lose anything.

I remember reading somewhere that mobile Odin has problems with recoveries. I have never used it but the guy above me us right, Odin on the pc should get you up and running.

First of all Thank you both... Secondly should I try to use a different Recovery version instead of the one I used?

That recovery is fine, just flash it with Odin on the pc and you should be good to go.

When I did mine it was always booting to that screen (that you pictured) when I tried to boot the phone. Once there I simply fired up Odin on my PC. The phone connected to Odin as soon as I plugged in the USB. I selected and flashed a good recovery. Once I did that I was able to reboot the phone normally.

Thanks guys, I'm gonna give it a try soon as I get my computer right.

something similar happened to me. I pulled the battery out for 5 minutes. Placed back restarted snd it was fine. I know crazy! !!

Samsung core plus G350 bricked on downloading mode

Hello guys!
This is a kind of newbie question. My daughter gave me its samsung galaxy core plus g350 because it was impossible to boot. It stayed on a picture of a grey battery. I try to fix it by flashing a new rom with odin. Stupidly, I do that from a laptop with an antivirus. Flashing stopped. And now, the grey battery is changed by the infamous yellow triangle and the message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue..." . I've still access to the downloading menu. Then I've tried again from another desktop PC, many different rom, full rom, versions of odin, even a thing called cwm. Each flash, Odin says it is a success, but nothing changes. I've even tried Kies.
I've only the downloading mode and it is said on the first line :
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G350
CURRENT BIN: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: custom.
My question is simple. What is the status of my phone? Hard or soft bricked? Is it a way out? For example, I've read that for hard bricked, changing the motherboard is a solution. But before that, I will be please to read your advice.
Thanks a lot for anybody who can help

if nothing is working... then gently remove ur battery and put ur device in sunlinght for about 1/2 hour then take ur device at room temperature and then put the battery and then press home button+power button+volume button and keep pressing them until u feel some vibration and keep pressing them for about 1-2 minutes.. it will drain all static charges.. then again try to install stock firmware from odin... if this method don't work then contact me again...

Thanks Avijwr for your post.
I've tried again, several time. In fact the little vibration doesn't occur. Odin keeps saying me "success" and the phone sticks on its error message. What can I try in this situation?

Best of luck??
One thing also...did you try to open your recovery mode/menu...if not then go in ur stock recovery mode ...and reset ur mobile to factory data from there... Its the easiest way ...
