you are a fool why you have flashed I9000 firmware to I9003 device.
not the only option is service center
your phone is dead...in china have so many people like this also,cannot repair
Paper weight !!!!!!!
Dnt wory. It happens most of time with new users like u. For now take ur phone to service centre & give a fake reason to them. They will repair it. Now from next time dont do same mistake.
It't hard to recovery

You have screwed up your Phones bootloader. You can not enter download mode now. May be you can try the JIG. But then its of no use explaining about such methods to new users who cant understand. Just take it to service and act like a noob, just tell them you saw there was update available in KIES and you updated the FW. But after that your Phone did not boot. Thats all...

does he need to act ? lol he is a noob !
and dude couldnt u just read before just going and flashing it ? ur wayy to lazy to come into development ! u hav to hav patience and u gotta read through A LOT if u want to get things working
It always pays to READ
pliz go buy the i9000 n try back that custom fw..it must be working hehe. dude u're juz finish the bad flashing ever done in phone history n sammy service center must be ur next destination. juz follow the tips above n everything will be OK

aw, don't be so mean to him, i made the exact same mistake only the second day after buying my i9003 (though things worked out differently for me - i only got the Phone!Computer screen; flashing another ROM helped)

LOL! Lucky one!
OP- Tell Samsung people that the phone started to heat up and re-booted randomly and then suddenly stopped it's functioning. They will work on this issue. In Asia,speacially India, they are gonna take nearly a month and a half to get this thing done. THe service guys are pretty lazy. There is no option to speed up the process,unless,you have luck on your side or you know the service guy

And you maybe flashed to death by the bill what Samsung Prepares in a FLASH of you dont have a warranty
Awww... dont be too hard on the poor guy. This reminds me of a thread created in the MIUI forums requesting a ROM for our i9003. The moderators response was "try flashing the i9000 ROM". So yeaaaaahhhh....
sorry, but that's definitely a brick! Fancy putting sugar in soup when salt is on the recipe....
Service center won't be able to detect your mistake as they can't revive it and find out what happened. Had you had a hardware failure while you were updating with Samsung Kies, service center might help you but if you were to tell them you updated with WRONG firmware they would not even repair it. *cough*
Congrats, You now have an Expensive Paperweight.

which firmware did you flash???
If it is of any phone other than i9003 then your fone is hard bricked.
bad things happen when we dont read and are not very careful with the things we do
if its a hard brick
then its samsung service center you go

so i cant fix it
and ya i flashed it with another firmware
and i rely want to fix it can u guys tell me how?
well if you are still under warranty, you have to find ways to reason out to samsung service center that it got bricked on its own.
but if no warranty or avoid the risk of paying a very high price on samsung service center... look for shops that does unbricking with JTAG ... search about it on the internet
ok ty man
that's mean that I CANT fix it?

If ur phone is under warranty, then just go to a SC and say that u updated over Kies coz it said that there was a software update available,
it got updated worked fine the previous night and the next day when u woke up, it just wouldn't turn on.. They might argue that it was ur fault that u used Kies.. Then u tell them that Kies came with the phone and nowhere does it say that updating over Kies shouldn't be done, n why the heck do u provide it then.. Then they should switch ur motherboard and done... Hopefully..
Otherwise be prepared to shell out INR 8000 approx...
Srr i dont know (i forgot)

Will pay for repair (jtag)

As the title, will pay someone trustworthy to repair my sensation. It's not recognised at all when connected to a computer, (I confirmed this with dexter some months ago..) and HTC won't give me a warranty repair because I bought the phone second hand, and they say I need to know the original distributor, which is impossible.
So any help would be greatly appreciated at this point of dire straits,
Thanks.
What happened to your sensation? Maybe there is still a way out..

Same happened to me, I bricked mine with the sd-card format bug which is not unbrickable using dexter93 method ... then I got it fixed (jtag) in a local shop.

The battery died while it was running the super wipe.. I think the only way to fix it now is a JTAG.. Do you know anyone who can do that for me??

[Q] Wrong IMEI

Didn't backup my efs folder...
I rooted my phone but everything was fine until it bricked
It bricked twice and I saved it twice but 3G is no longer working
Now, I can't make any call in UK (it says Mobile network is not available)
I realize that my IMEI is 004999010640000 but not a unique one
SIM card is working on other phones
I'm now on 2.3.6 stock rom, not rooted, zero count
1. Is IMEI causing this problem?
2. Is there anyway that I can repair IMEI by myself without losing the data of my phone?
3. If I bring this to Samsung, Is this phone still under warranty?
4. Is factory reset compulsory before bringing it to Samsung?
Thank you!
No way, you should take it Samsung service Center they will do it under warranty and your on stock ROM so not required to do Factory Reset, don't worry they will do it in 10 Min with out losing data.....

Your device does not support software updating via kies
Googled it but it seems like changing (KOR) to (TGY) and wiping all the data is the only method.
Is this caused by a wrong sales code/IMEI?
Should I just flash 4.0.4 on my own?
