Hey people, My phone is not turnin on.. It ain't getting into download or recovery mode.. is it bricked? If bricked then how did it got bricked? I only tried to flash CM9 although it was freezing everytime.. then switched back to XXKPE.. (freeze) then to DDLF2.. it was working fine.. but then again I flash to CM9 freeze again.. and then slowly phone switched off..next time recovery mode was not coming only download mode was working and now nothing is coming. PHONE IS JUST BLANK NOT SWITCHING ON
Hmm, I think it is Dead (hard bricked). There are some ways you can try:-
1. Try removing your battery and put it back and try if it is going to download mode.
2. If its not going to Download mode - Try doing a JTAG Repair or visit the nearest Samsung Service Center. .
Press thanks if i helped
I am reporting your thread.
You made 1 billion threads/posts about your issue..
Your phone won't just "die" for no reason, you did something wrong, or it's just a random hardware failure.
Look at replies from your older topics (about the same issue).
now if your phone is not going to download mode. charge it for some time n try
once in download mode flash pit->kpe-> kpq or latest firmware .

Buddy dont xreat duplicate threads plz. It spam forum. Anyway ur phone is absolutely fine. Flash xxkpe first & then ddlf2 rom. If phone is switching ON perfectly then no problem at all.
I'll suggest u to redownload cm9 alpha 11 again & check that whether cm9 zip is ok or not. I suspect that ur downloaded cm9 file is currupted.

help please
is there a way i can flash it to stock , i just want it running doesnt matter if i lose everything
You done something wrong or got a bad rom .
Can you get into download mode via three buttons .
If so flash stock rom via Odin with pit and repartition checked .
Choose your firmware and follow instructions to the letter.

If you know how to get into recovery mode and it fails then you need the recovery jig .

Darky's rom? i think Darky's rom wasn't available for GT-i9003 yet that's why your phone (temporary)bricked.
I9000 roms will not work on a i9003. The hardware differences are too great.
@ simmmy
Ha Ha!! Flashed that firmware too eagerly, dont you? .
Dude still there is no custom rom fo i9003
Anyway if you tried that darkys rom despite knowing that it wont work, a big thumbs up for you!! Bravo
Don't worry dude, only your pda is wiped off during the flashing process, just reflash with odin, using PDA file of may be xxkb2 only, should do the job. Happened with me once, but getting into down load mode should not be the issue, try three button combo.

HELPPPP!!! I FU**ed my SGS2!!!
I've flashed a lot of phones(the last one a year ago) but never with odin. The whole point is that I've rooted the phone, open odin (didnt know how to install the kernel) so I download CWM5. In the odin menus I've choose the CWM5 and click flash... I DONT KNOW WHY I DID THAT :S
Now the phone goes through the Samsung i9100 black and withe screen and then goes completly BLACK!
Any help please!!!!! I work with it! :'(

I did the same thing a few days ago. As long as you have your current rom downloaded on your computer you can put your phone in ODIN mode (power + vol down), start ODIN on computer, plug in phone. Once ODIN sees your phone click start. Since right now you can't see anything on your phone due to the kernel, redoing it will straighten you out.
I fixed mine this way and haven't messed with the kernel since.
Tappin' from my SGP 5.0
The thing is that I cant eter odin recovery mode
I have CWMR5.... I try with (vol up + power btn + central btn). And the CWMR5 is there.
Another thing is that I dont have a bootloader lower than lph
I cant install another rom
So.. I'm stuck here
any ideas??
simple!!!
well u can simply flash the rom to stock one by putting it in download mode and after that selecting the stock rom in the pda
after that u need root as well deoxidise the rom so that rom could be properly installed!!!
Maybe this will help:

Thanks people!
I've finally placed a CM9 rom in the flash memory and installed it with google apps.
Clear cache
wipe data
clear davik(or something)
and reboot...
I've lost all my work postits but I got my phone back!
and with 4.0.4
Thanks guys!! all of you for your time answering!
I'm happy you got your phone working again!!!! I was crushed when I thought I killed mine too.

I was updating my Galaxy R to the STOCK Taiwan 2.3.6 rom, when there was a power cut at my place. My comp switched off, and the device did too. It gave me an error like "There was an error with the firmware update", and now it wont even start up
Even the GT-i9103 Screen wont show up.
How do i fix it? Did I lose my warranty? [I DID NOT TRY TO ROOT IT IN ANY WAY, IT WAS AN OFFICIAL ROM]
Please help?!

Do not get panic, First remove the battery and sim then replace the battery and try to switch it on and go to Download mode and flash the stock ROM...
If the above method is not working try this, Be careful if you are trying the below method...

Yeah. I tried that method. After sending bootloader.bin...My device is responding....but not properly. Nothing is visible, only light is coming from the screen when I boot it up.
You seem panicked man. CALM DOWN. Why are you trying to downgrade bootloader?
As I understand you need to unbrick your phone by entering APX and not reset the counter using USB Jig.
Sent from my GT-I9103 using XDA
Firstly tell me these things in a clear & concise manner:
- ROM & kernel that were in use before you were flashing the stock ROM?
- Did you enable/disable (tick/untick) anything in Odin by mistake other than that was in the guide ?
- Does your windows show APX driver required when connected to the PC?
- Does you handset go into the download mode after trying to unbrick it using the method mj.vikram gave you ?
Hey guys, I need your help.
My phone was all ok when I slept last night! (I have Purumod v3) I wake up in the morning and the phone was off. when I switched it on,it started bootlooping!(shows only samsung logo)
I tried reflashing it,but the bootlooping seems to persist EVEN when im trying to use the recovery(after the flash when I need to wipe data).If I go to recovery,just when Im about to reach the "wipe all data",it switches off and reboots. I thought its a hardware problem but there is one thing that goes against it ie., the phone does NOT show this behaviour when its in Download mode. when Im in download mode,it doesnt reboot or switch off or anything.
I tried going back to stock(a froyo rom without bootloader) but problem still remains. Tried flashing many different custom roms,still remains the same.
Any idea? Reinstalled Kies drivers and everything. Please help.
Have you tried flashing another kernel or reflashing your current one?
Since the kernel handles boot and recovery while download mode is on a lower level.

Try to find something called "zero fill tar" I think Hillbeast made? its like a deep cleanser, if it is a firmware issue, this should help. flash it then flash any rom over it.
Try flashing this tar file. It's saved my phone many times and here is the file that ava.tar is talking about. For the second file, you have to extract it and you get a .tar file that you flash through odin. :good:
I tried each of the things in your replies. I tried the 0kb file,did nothing,tried the zero fill followed by flashing Kyrillos Rom (froyo) still the same result(bootloop). Also flashed g3mod 2.4.1! this is just so annoying. Thanks so much for your help. I really hope my I could find a way.
Try flashing a rom with 'force upload mode' [vol up+home and power up]

Some more suggestions, which are not very likely (not in order of probability of success but in order of quickness), but it doesnt hurt to try
1. Try booting/ entering recivery while charging
2. Try removing sd card (and then sim card as well) then booting
3. Try flashing a stock rom (then try doing a factory reset from stock recovery)
4. If you know somebody with the same phone try using their battery and then booting.
(5. When you lose all hope try the russian/old school methdod, ie. beat it into complying to your wishes )

I don't remember it clearly. But just try entering download mode(I think you will get this screen anyway).
Then flash KPE through ODIN.The steps to flash KPE are provided in the development section.
Dont worry. It has happened to me too. I got my phone working within 2minutes. All i had to do was remove the battery,put it back and try entering download mode. If it doeant work try again... Im sure it will work.:thumbup:

try this
1)Open the back over
2)Check between the Camera Lens and the speaker
3) There is a hard reset button which is a small cavity
4) You will need two people for this.. Keep that cavity pressed with a pin
5) Keeping it pressed use the download mode combo- Volume down + Home + Power pressed.
6)Wait and try it a couple of times and your phone will enter download mode
7)Flash to a stock firmware (credits to Adi_Pat for this guide)
