[Q] :eek: bricked i9000!!?

Hi!
My i9000 don´t boot anymore. it has got a boot loop. i just can see the galaxys logo. i even can´t access the recovery mode.
after every app crashed since yesterday, i tryed to reboot. then i got a boot loop (boot animation). when i had it after i flashed ics 2 weeks ago too, i fixed it with deleting dalvik cache and flashed the rom again. so i wanted to do again. i deleted the dalvik cache. then i (stupid ) thought before i flash again i try to reboot. and now nothing is working anymore.
Any ideas? my data is gone, right?

please help.....need my phone!!! can´t even access download mode

Try taking the battery out and have power through USB. Sometimes fixes my download mode issues.

i already tryed it. when it is connected through usb i can´t even turn it on. i only see the battery (empty, but it is not empty) and the loading circle....then after few seconds only the circle...then agin empty battery.....
even battery animation is not working...
the phone isn´t recognized by the pc at all...

now i got something new oO a blue magenta pattern on the whole screen
now its gone :-(
....
-------------------------------------------------------
maybe it´s because of i thought about buying an ipad2

My only suggestion left is let it sit without a powersource for a little. I haven't had any bricking issues so I don't have first hand experience

what can i do now?

You'll have to odin to stock. I don't have any links or files on hand right now. Maybe someone will pop in and drop it for you. If not I'll have it up in a few hours. Grats on getting into dl mode. It's a start.

thank you .....should i try this?

Stock is stock. I'm having trouble viewing the webpage but if it is an odin image it should work. You'd just want to find the latest stock image. Let me see if I can "try" and dig up a link. Don't hold me to it though. I'm in a building that eats mobile signal.

Tars+pit. You'll have to find the one for you. I can't get it open.
There are odin guides everywhere. Especially here on xda.

can´t i flash ics again with odin?
if not....how can i find out whats the right version?

No download mode

So, I got soft bricked. I tried to odin back to stock but ive tried every three button combo to get back in to download mode with nothing working. I try pulling battery then holding both vol keys then inserting battery and then plugging in usb cable while its plugged into the computer and odin is running. Ive tried every other variation of this as well. I have no idea what to do next, please help. Plugging in the USB after holding the keys only brings up the SAMSUNG screen. I can three button into 3e recovery but of course that is no help. Please help

wrong section needs to be on q&A

Keep trying. But you have posted this in the wrong section.

Sweet story bro.

Are you by chance on a ROM with extended power menu? With the Download mode option. That would be perfect!

I am on no rom. I was switching when I soft bricked

I've exhausted every option presented to me short of sending it to samsung, the thing with that is all my roms and kernels are on the root of the sd card, the current rom before crash was dmans ucbl3 with stock kernel, will they refuse me service for any of this?

did you tried a different usb port on the computer or a different computer?
tried a different data usb cord?

I tried different computers, cords, drivers, everything. I even tried a different battery. Would a USB jig work?

possible. A jig would force your phone into DL mode.
I tried to help a few user in the past when they had a continuous power loop, samsung logo and reboot. over and over again.
It was later determined to be hardware.
If you are not able to get it into DL mode, chances are the store tech wont be able to either...you might be able to warranty thru samsung or att for hardware failure

Download mode is what I need to save me, I could unbrick to stock and go from there right?

yes..if you can get into DL mode:
android shoveling dirt or phone triangle with "!"
then you can flash with odin or heimdall..I usually use the heimdall 1 click method.
the important thing is use whatever you're comfortable with.

Sound like what happened to me and im waiting for my next indie now, warranty exchange of course

download menu
hold down both volume rockers together only!! and plug in usb keep holding till download mode pulls up on phone

Anyone seen this before?

So I have a infuse that is acting up very weird. It will only turn on if its plugged in to power. Tried everything, if it is unplugged and I insert battery it tries to start up without me touching anything, I get the startup star then it reboots over and over, plug it in and I get the star then battery then I can hold power button and it will fire up, tried different batteries, different roms and updated boot loaders, nothing has worked, thinking a hardware problem.... like a bad micro USB port as it acts funny, but can't find one to replace it with...... any ideas? Bought it for 100$ because it does work, you just can't turn it off while out of the house...lol and I like to fix things.... any ideas would be awesome, thanks!

First question will it go into download mode?

Yes I can get it into dl mode, jars will work and sometimes I can get odin to recognize it.

i would backup any current rom in the case that it is a hardware issue.
Question, can it boot recovery...?
Edit: never mind, stupid question, trying to flash cm9 at the moment so im kinda back and forth.
custom rom, of course it can

I can make it stock or customer, roms are not the issue.... the whole power deal and micro USB issue... wondering if people have seen that.

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.

GS3 Bricked - Please help!

Hi,
I'm new to this site and just bricked my white 16 gb verizon galaxy s3 sch-i535 :crying: I was running touchwiz and decided to run cyanogen 10.2, I had to install a bootchain to unlock the boot. Downloaded RomManager and was using CWM 6.x.x, went to install it, rebooted into recovery and it started going through the system update, it finished and was about to install gapps when the device turned off and has not been able to turn back on since my computer won't recognize it, i plug it in and it makes a sound and tries to download the drivers, then it just stops and won't be recgonized. tried booting into recovery/download mode, nothing. I left it and used my old gs3 for about 4 days, tried plugging it into the charger, light turned red for about a minute and I thought I was saved, but then it turned off and nothing. Is this completely dead? Does any one know how to fix this? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Samsung is now offering free repair of brickes phones. You can try that?
