The phone should be switched off without any cable connected. Press volume up and volume down at the same time, now hit the power button(with the volume button still being pressed)

And before I forget.please flash the appriopriate version to ur device. I.e don't flash Odin rom for i9020 if you have i9023. And vice versa.

I think it's time to take your phone to a service center....
By what you have explained I don't think anything is possible by our hands....

Here's your fix worked for me. pull battery hold volume buttons reinstall battery plug in USB cord should turn on in download mode. Good luck

Its bricked

That means they cant see,and i can fix it for free with 11 months waranty left?

rom manager brick?
i had the same thing done to my phone
don worry take it to da center dell fix it
de wont kno as da phone wont come on

Well, This happeneds when ROM manager is used! If you can try, Get the battery out, re-insert it and then, switch the cell phone on Download mode (IF IT WORKS). Flash a clean fw and be happy! Try this and tell me whether it is working!

p.s: my phone also formatted the external sd... check yours...

No it's offical KIES version. Everythink was okey until yesterday i download 1 program from market... Now my phone wont work normaly at main page it's reboot
or in other place.... damn ;/ and i dont know what to do
P.S NOW BETTER after official KIES update my phone keeps restarting at Samsung logo again and again ?! Guys i need ur help

Are u using any custom kernel?
Cheers

No i didnt, official kies. I just was installed that root file at ODIN and everythink works perfect.. But now my phone restart at SAMSUNG logo and this phone is not mine... Jesus.... any ideas what can it be?

yeah so i found how to wipe format data in recovery i'v done and my phone now on, i dont see any restarts right we will see later

actually xxkpu is an official kies firmware... but anyway...
I reset my phone, it worked for about 2 hours then started rebooting (and looping over samsung logo). what the hell should i do now?

Go to recovery mode by clicking 3 buttons and wipe cache or something like that i think

I already experienced this. On every restart, did your contacts and messages got deleted? If thats the case then it a hardware failure.
Flashing different rom wont work either.
Your only option is to bring it back to Samsung Serive Center and have it repaired or replaced.

Backup all your data before you do this.
Go to recovery (by pressing Volume up + Home button and hold the power button) . In the recovery menu try doing a factory reset and wipe cache and Dalvik cache. if it doesnt help then download other official rom (XXKPQ or DDKP3) and flash it through Odin.

HELP! Galaxy R Not Starting Up! :O

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.

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 ?

Try this:
1. Enable sound on your pc
2. Turn off you phone remove sd/sim card.
3. Connect your phone while pressing volume up with the Pc (I guess u have lg Drivers installed)
4. Wait and see if you hear sth (like 3 or more sounds) or if you phone enter in S/W mode.
5. reply again

No sounds......But it enters S/W mode....but nothing happens.......what should i do?

Im also worried that the battery will die....will it be charged while in S/W mode?

Go to device manager while in S/W mode and connect the usb cable.
See if anything pops up and reply.
I think it will show you LG Cosmo driver that is not installed but lets see.

All drivers was installed inclusive LG Cosmo Driver....i saw it......But when in device manager with S/W mode on i cant see the COSMO Driver name......
Should i be worried about battery dying? How can i know its charging when the phone is off?

As im aware it wont, but it still should charge if you just plug it when its off.
The Fact that you can enter downloadmode means you phone can be restored (Data will be lost)
Try that guide, its easiest one

I tried smartflash succesfully but phone still bootloops with LG logo on...also read later on in the thread that this might mean that bootloader is broken and needs to be restored...i paste quote "you have most likely been fiddling with the bootloader.
You'll need the correct bootloaders for the su870".....whats the solution now?

You gotta format your internal memory from within the ROM. Boot your device then Go to settings/storage/format internal sd. It should be okay. If you can't find the settings try pressing menu button while in the homescreen. In the menu press settings and it should run.

Try to flash another gingerbread Kernel. If you cant enter recovery, but you can enter fastboot mode then try: fastboot flash (Drag and Drop the boot.img to shell) and press enter.

Turn off your phone then turn on your phone while holding 3D button and vulume up or down ( not sure which one ) and power button as son as the screen turns on free all of them then you should see the android icon wait till you enter the recovery mode there format every thing.
I hope this will work
And it would do the trick
Sorry for my bad english
