My captivate does not respond to any button or button combination. It does not turn on at all. Does anybody have any suggestions?
More info is needed so that we can suggest some help...
What did u do to get it to that state ??
Does it show any signs of life if plugged into a wall charger ??
Can u get into Download mode ??
Do u have a Jig ??

I think the last thing I downloaded was 3button fix, & after that it just powered off by itself. When I plug into wall charger nothing happens. It feels like battery is charging (feels warm) but nothing on screen.
If u were running anything Gingerbread and then u flashed the 3 button fix...u r hard bricked, because of mix-matched bootloaders.
If u r on a pc, look at my sig below for links to get it repaired.

If it's hard bricked, Do I need jig to unbrick it or can do without Jig?
If hard bricked, only Jtag and/or Unbrickable Mod will help.
Jig will not put u in download mode if u r hard bricked.
See the "Repair" section in my sig link below.

i've done the same thing! but i had 2 phones so that saved me only thing u can do is pay $45 for a jtag service
thats what imma do for my other phone so i can still have two better then getting a new one and its cheaper then an insurance claim which is now $130
but i really screwed my phone cuz in the new odin it says bootloaders so i downloaded t959 bootloaders and used the bootloader section of odin and now my phone doesnt respond to anything nothing at all only jtag can fix it now.......
Im not sure if it would help but try a jig? Or look under the development section for unbrickable mod that might help bring your phone back to life

Have you tried the download combo and flashing proper boot loaders even with a blank screen? We have seen it before....
You could also try the unbrickable mod to recover. I think the developer will apply and recover for $30 or so plus shipping....

I was on the xda app and my phone just turned off and now it won't turn back on.
It won't go into download mode or recovery.
Any help would be greatly appreciated..
I'm stock 2.3.5 rooted
did u try a battery pull? Take it out and let it sit for a few minutes, then put it back and hold power button for at least 20 secs
I did a few battery pulls just hoping it would work. Is there anything else I could try?

Does anything happen when you leave the charger in? Also, holding the power button for a while doesn't do anything?

If i plug it into my computer it says qhsusb_dload. And the power button doesn't do anything

I don't think any of romracer's "stockish" kernels have uv/oc patching.
In that case. That sucks. Use your warranty. Your phone killed itself. What a shame
This happened to me as well. I was browsing the web and the phone just died and wouldn't show any signs of life. Tried everything including buying the Samsung Jtag dongle. I got it replaced but now am really concerned about rooting it and loading a new rom. I was on Sky ICS 6.35.

Cant even Get to Download Mode..
screen says "Firmware Upgrade encountered an issue, Please Select recovery mode in kies and try again". but when i connect it to my pc device is not responding.. i cant even get to download mode.. please help me..
Can there still be a fix for this? please i need ur help guys..
I suggest you pull the battery. Then replace battery. Hold both volume buttons then plug in the USB cable. If it doesn't go to the download mode screen then you might have bricked it.

Infuse = Pretty much Unbrickable >.< It's too easy to just pop it into download mode and install stock ROM.

OK so what happened was I had the latest CM10 build installed and wanted to try the paranoid android rom out and I flashed my device with the 2.50 build. I soft bricked it. I could still go into recovery but the device wouldnt load into paranoid android. I had an emergency so I had to leave the device the way it was in a bootloop state I came back the device was off. Obviously It ran out of juice. And now when I try to charge it i don't get any response...... could this be a hard brick?? ??
please guys any help would bbe greatly appreciated!

Happened to once with a different model. Never had it fixed, as suggested by a technician, go to someone who has a JTAG. Same with what I was thinking, but I never bothered to had it fixed.
Good luck.

Well if I'm not mistaken I don't think there is jtag for our devices. well I fixed it now thank god! I took apart another p6200 and swapped out the batteries and as soon as I swapped them the one I thought was bricked booted up! I flashed the stock rom then rootedbit ahandball that now its working great! I guess it doesn't charge whenbits in a boot loop or something? Thanks man I really appreciate ur help

I just had this problem too and couldn't find any answers about what can I do to solve it...
I was trying to flash ICS ROM over Odin (I hate it), and it always stucked on the process. When I tried to reboot, it did just not woke up again!
What may have happened? Does someone knows what to do now?
I really don't know what to tell you... for me swapping out batteries fixed it but it was a real pain to do so. You could try keeping it plugged into the charger for a while and ssee if the screen powers on. If it does just put your tab in download mode and flash from Odin. Maybe u had a llow charge when you tried flashing stock?

I really screwed my brother's Galaxy S+ (9001) because I thought it was the same as mine.(9000)
I used Odin and flashed a wrong bootloader or just unplugged it before finishing.
So the phone is really dead. No download or recovery mode is available.
And no way to get that screen open or at least power it up and being able to connect it to my PC
Will be helpfull to have a USB jig. or I have to get it to a service?
This is my first post asking smthng and you been always a great help :cyclops:
Thnx...
Yep sorry to tell you but if u cant get into download mode its HARD BRICKED
Is there a way to overcome it
