OK, it could be cool to tell us more about your phone, your brick.
Indeed, if you want some help, we need to know:
What's your phone ?
Locked, Unlocked?
Unrooted, Rooted ?
What's your rom?
Stock or a custom ?
What's the last operation that you can do before your brick ?
etc...
your request is useless if you don't tell us more
Thanks in advance

Just push the soft reset should get U back to normal mode. If not, yr rom is corrupted and U need to flash it back w/ yr backup.

Samsung Galaxy S3 Won't turn on after rebooting into recovery using Rom Manager

I used the new root tool for Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 running 4.3 and I tried to install Custom Recovery. I went into the Rom Manager App and clicked on 'Reboot into Recovery' and now the phone won't even turn on! Please help!!!!!
You can not flash custom ROMS or recoveries on 4.3. You are required to have an unlocked bootloader to be able to do such modding. Verizon and Samsung have perma-locked our bootloaders. No way around it as of now.
If you can get into ODIN mode (vol. down + power + home) you should be able to flash the stock VRUCML1 back to your phone through ODIN 3.07 unless you've hard bricked.
Search the forums for the stock image. But first just try to get into download mode (ODIN). Without that your stuck...good luck.

Could I use a USB Jig?

In theory, usb jig is for softbrick where you reset download mode and sdcard method is for hard brick where you let the phone boot up from its own bootloader which is located on the sdcard. You can try it won't hurt. Make sure you know what you doing..since usb jig required to play with circuit board stuff...

First of all you have to be more specific than it doesn't work. If your on one of two locked bootloaders and you have the VZW variant of the S3 your more or less stuck on it

Don't mess with a new phone if you don't know exactly what you are doing.
Now your phone is soft-bricked.
Download this (FOR GT-I8260) or this (FOR GT-I8262) stock firmware and use ODIN to flash it to your phone, as described in this post (thanks to Omkar$).
I am not responsible if you hard brick your phone.
Soft-bricking was your mistake, and there is no reason to be mad at us.

when i press vol down+home+power button it says factory mode.....how to go to download mode then????
I recommend using Samsung Kies for reverting to stock ROM. Just boot in download mode and select Forward update and initialization

[Q] Bricked my first smartphone

Well guys, I really need your help.
I was trying to flash CM onto my Moto G LTE. But something went wrong I guess.
It hangs at the Bootloader Unlocked screen.
I can get into the screen where you press power+vol. down, but cant get into recovery.
ADB isn't listing it.
Can someone please help me?
I'm literally breaking down over this :crying:
Feel like an idiot now
Welp, turns out I just needed to reflash CWM.
Truth be told, I feel an idiot.
What did I learn from this not-disaster?
Don't panic. Someone somewhere has a solution.
If mods could do a delety thing, that'd be great.

Are you able to use the power button to "kind of" reboot? (like, it doesn't actually start up, but it still responds to the power button)

Are you talking to me?
You replied to your own post, so...
P.S. I am not at liberty to share that information. Why do you need it?
The instructions to factory-reset your a800:
1. Press together : POWER + VOLUME UP about several second, a warning will appear onscreen.
2. Choose "Reset Device".
3. Reboot.
You should be back to stock and your problem fixed.
tried that!
