You will have to Odin it that's a firmware failed screen. I got nervous flashing kc1 and pulled the usb cable ouf. I had nothing but a rainbow screen, and Odin saved my phone

When your phone is plugged in check to see if odin recognizes your phone.one of the com ports should light up when it does flash away and it should be all good.

Hold both of your volume buttons down and plug in your USB (connected to your computer) to your phone. Keep holding onto both of the volume buttons until the yellow download triangle pops up.

Phone..triangle..pc icon screen is download mode. You can flash with Odin on that screen.
Did your drivers install?

try the drivers from this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1001759
if you cant get into download mode again, try another method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1069032
method 2 worked with me when i soft bricked. since you seem to get the triangle screen, the biggest thing is making sure the drivers are properly installed. reinstall them and reboot the computer and then follow the instructions on the odin guide. hope this helps.

problem with almost everything

So this started about a month ago and i tried to ignore it but i don't want to deal with it any longer. My is not recognized on my computer anymore even after i reinstalled the drivers multiple time. Its not recognized in odin, the "My Files" app and the music app are both missing. Also whenever i try to put it into download mode it just launches clockwork mod. I've tried every method besides the usb jig. Does anyone have any idea whats wrong or any solutions to try?

Can you download a new rom. If so can you flash a new one from cwm.

Yes i forgot to mention that. I can flash new roms and everything but they all have the same problem.

I also tried restoring from an older back up and it had the "My files" and the music app but it still wasn't recognized and still wasn't recognized on my computer

My initial thoughts?
Using the stock cable (it matters)?
Connected to computer's USB and not a hub?
Try a different computer?
Can you mount either SD from cwm and have it show up in windows?
If/when you solve the windows issue, I'd try wiping both emmc and external, then load your fav from and retry.

Ok so i was able to get it into download mode using the cm9 power button shortcut but it still isn't recognized in windows. Whenever it is connected it says "failed to mount unknown device"

try Restoring your computer to a earleir date, should fix the issue with the drivers ...

i've tried it on 5 different computers :/

I'm pretty sure if your in download mode, connection problems are only computer or cable related. Do you have another cable to try? How are you going into download mode?

I have used the stock cable and two other ones I have. The only way I could get it into download mode was through the power button shortcut in cm9. Every time I plug it in it says the device malfunctioned. I thought it was a driver problem but I've already reinstalled them a few times.

there's a trouble shooting guide for odin in the sticky how to restore to stock in the dev forum made by me

I just remembered that all of this started to happen after I used Odin to flash it back to stock because it was saying the MD 5 sums didn't match when I was trying to restore from an older recovery

Have you tried holding volume+- (with phone off and Odin running) and plugging cable in? I've had best success with download mode being recognized by doing that.

It should do neither since you are not touching the power button. But if that is in fact happening than i have never seen the issue.

It is very annoying. I'm almost to the point of getting the insurance on my phone and waiting a couple of weeks then either accidentally washing it or running it over and paying the $50 deductible

did you follow the guide
are u touching the power button, the answer should be no
or the power button is sticking down, to fix that try to repeatedly keep pushing the power hard to try to unstick it, sounds like a stuck power button to me, almost positive

i didnt touch the power button at all and it isn't stuck. I've tried everything i can think of. do you think getting it jtagged would fix it?

[Q] Bricked... hard or soft?

I have an SGS4g
I had Team Whiskeys Bionix Frost updated for/with voodoo and it worked fine for quite some time... I foolheartedly decided it was time for something new...
I followed the instructions perfectly for WhiteHawkx Valhalla when I was at the restart boot-loader section my phone turned into rainbow crack,
but the rom loaded and my phone worked I was however unable to get into recovery from this point forward.
I decided that not being able to get into recovery was unacceptable so I decided to use Odin to load up the old tried an true jump off point the deodexed KD1 I keep with Odin in a folder on my PC for just such an occasion, after attempting this my phone didn't restart on it's own like it was supposed to... (I should have known to stop right there while I was still in DL mode.)
When I restarted my phone manually my phone stopped showing the rainbow crack and showed the normal splash screen (I was foolishly optimistic) my phone is now stuck at the t mobile splash screen and I haven't been able to get it back into DL mode...
Please tell me there is something I can do other than shop for a new phone.

Volume up and volume down while you plug it into the computer won't get you to download mode?

I have been unable to get into recovery so far...
I have tried all of the alternate methods except ADB mode which I don't think i can because the phone wont go past the galaxy S 4g exclusively from t mobile splash screen.
if there is a trick for the ADB method please let me know cause if something is going to work at this point i think that's it.

Well there is hope, your phone is still turning on.
You could see if abd recognizes your phone if you have it. (usually the first things I do is make sure debugging is on when I change things over)
If you know someone with a jig that would be the easiest way but it is 1am.
I'm at work so I'm not in front of my computer.

I dont know anyone with a Jig, I always turn debug mode on.
I'll try ADB if that doesn't work I'll order/make a jig.

I had one that I had to spam the adb command at for awhile before it took..

What can I do with my skyrocket now?

Help! I am at a loss. I have a Skyrocket thar can't be updated. I have tries updating through Kies and get the error USB not recognized. I have tried reinstalling drivers and even used a different cord and computer.
I also can not get my phone to root anymore either. I have tried ODIN but it will not work. All I get is the standard Android stuff when I hold volume up and down. I have tried to install Clockwork. I have even tried the app to but without rooting I can't use it.
Am I stuck at 2.3.6 forever? Is it time to get a different phone? Please help.

If its still under warranty, you should be able to get a repair since its no longer rooted. Might not make a difference but try cleaning the USB port on the phone. Also does ADB recognize the phone? If it does, type "adb reboot download" and press enter. Should boot into download mode.

Bricked g2x

My g2x will not turn on at all. I've tried the g2x_v21e flasher that someone made and still not booting. It is stuck in apx and will not light up no matter what I try. I've tried flashing CWM as well as the freezer trick. Someone advise me on what I can do to fix the phone. Last known thing was it was clearing the user data in CWM and suddenly battery was pulled.

Try the cleanup batch if you are able to connect in APX mode. That would leave it as clean as it can be.
