Use odin to flash it! Just pull out the battery, insert it again und hold vol + and vol - while you plug it in your computer. Then itshould be in dlmode and yiu can flash it with odin or heimdall!

dont panic!.. remove and replace the battery.. press up + down vol then plug USB cable. you will get the same screen but you will hear a sound from your computer that the usb is plugged in. then flash again.. once its completed it will back to normal.
ill try that thanx!!!

Yes try restarting your pc
Open odin v1.7
Take battery out, put battery back in
Then Hold up + down volumn keys then plug usb
You will/will not get the downloading screen but don't be scared
Look on your odin flasher and make sure it is connected to com 3 or com 5(it will be highlighted in yellow), if it is then your good
Put the deodexed kc1 file in the pda tab and make sure re-partition is unticked
Then hit start, might take a bit longer but it will surely revive your phone
Hope that helps

Mine worked on com4. The com number is of not importance.
i had the same issue
Unplug usb
Reset odin.
Reload file on pda
Reconect usb
Try again to flash
If it continues failing, download the rom again

still waiting halfway downloaded. after is done do i wipe data, cache, dalvik or just restart!
Can wipe if you want I didn't and it flies
now am stuck on the galaxy s 4g logo!!!
I used Odin 3_v1.0 and it worked. You need to remove the battery and reflash with Odin. If you get the phone and computer symbol just remove the usb cable, re start odin and connect the cable to your phone and try again. You do not need to remove the battery. I was able to flash my that way.
now when i try to install it fails right before its almost done weird!!! tried it 4 times already same thing every time!

Close Odin. Disconnect phone. Pull battery. Put battery back in, while holding both volume buttons plug in cord. It will show the error on your phone again. Start Odin again. Load rom in PDA section. Click start. You can wipe user data and cache. And click reboot. Then give it time to rebuild. Ten minutes. The reboot again to clear up bugs.

When you flash with Odin just leave it alone for awhile. While its flashing give it ten minutes. When its done it should be in recovery. Then just hit the power button to reboot.
If it doesn't work you have other issues. Did you flash it with a pit file? Do not flash this phone with a pit.

Yes i did some guy put up a pit file and i flashed it and my phone went blank!

Anyone knows how to ACTUALLY fix this?
Maybe a way to reset my phone? I dunno really where its from but I got it from sweden and I live in sweden.

Can you boot into download mode? If yes, then download your official Rom and flash with Odin

mate just stop blaming him for using the wrong key combination
question to op:
can you boot into download mode?? (volume down+power+home)
if you can:
download your country's firmware from sammobile.com
extract that zip
connect your phone to your computer with your usb cable (make sure your cable is working fine)
click on "pda" in odin, choose the file you extracted from your zip.
the odin should say comort (or a number)
and also shows that you are connected: "added!"
click start
wait until it finishes, your phone should boot up with no problem now
don't unplug when it's still flashing
I can get into download mode. Going to try that now. Also when I said volume up + home + quit I meant quit as the power button.
Edit: Installed stock and rooted now. Thanks.

[q] cwm wont work

banging my head against the wall here , wasted 2 days reflashing phone
I followed all the guides and searched high and low for a solution to get CWM on my tmobile blaze 4g
I have stock GB , 2.3.6 on my phone
was able to root and have superuser installed
anytime i flash CWM via odin , it says successful and when I try to take out the batt , hold vol up/down and power , i still get the default stock recovery over and over and over again .... about to throw this phone in the garbage
I flashed it the same way it says in instructions , place the cwm file in the pda section , make sure partition isn't selected then hit start
FYI
no i dont have kies running in background , or any other program that would interefere with pc odin
I would seriously appreciate any help
PS. am I trying to get to CWM the wrong way , or ist he default to getting to CWM is holding power/ volume up and down , then inserting battery while usb is connected
