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 ?
So, I am running MIUI, which has problems with tethering. I decided to go for the latest value pack released by samsung. As said in the thread, I repartitioned my phone, using latona.pit. Now, I was supposed to reboot and go back to download mode to install any xxkpe rom, to continue with flashing. But, my phone just show a black screen, with no info. Download mode is not working. Odin does not detect the phone either.
Any suggestions? I am trying to reflash the pit file, again to make sure, and scouring over the forums, in the meantime. Let me know, if I am missing something.

Did that. Wasn't working for a couple times, panicked, and posted here. Thought, it might have something to do with that value pack itself, so posted there too. Didn't know, two posts counted as spamming. What a way to encourage participation. Thanks a lot.
Update on issue:
Tried taking out battery and reinserting everything. Multiple restarts, and somehow got odin to detect it. Still no screen for download mode. Tried flashing the firmware, and is stuck in a boot loop now. What next?

Volume Down + Home Key + Power to get to download mode.
I use Odin to flash. I have 3.0 version, which shows blue icon on the com port, the phone is connected to, instead of yellow from older versions. To flash pit, I used the button saying pit to select pit file. Default options, that have auto-reboot, and F. Reset Time enabled. Everything else, is disabled.
Same method for flashing firmware. Only thing, I select pda option instead of pit, while selecting the file. Odin says, pass for both times, that is flashing with pit, and flashing with actual rom.
There is no download screen, one that says "Downloading target", or something like that. Earlier, it was not even getting detected in Odin, which is solved after multiple reboot. After flashing rom, it gets stuck in boot loop.
Not sure, if I should change any option in Odin, so I haven't tried that.
I've encountered such an issue with a couple of ROMs that i tried on my other device(mi-280).
Try flashing the ROM twice then try to reboot. I did clear cache and dalvik cache between 2 flashes(not sure why). Worked for me.

Phone is stuck in boot loop, so can't clear any cache. Rom is stock, so there is no CWM recovery mode. Flashing twice is good idea. Will try it out and post result soon. Also, downloading another rom. This hotfile uploading is a bit of a hit-and-miss for me, as power cuts are way too frequent here. It is possible that rom might be faulty.
Edit:
Same result. Still stuck in boot loop. Flashing twice didn't worked.
Its better to flash xxkpe firmware twice & check whether phone boot properly or not. If everything goes well then flash ddlf2 stock rom.

Downloading the same. Power cut for 3 hours made me stop it earlier. I had xxkpq earlier, which is not working. I thought xxkpq was also an official release, so it should have worked.

Doing exactly the same. Downloading from hotfile is a pita with frequent power cuts.

I don't remember it clearly. But just try entering download mode(I think you will get this screen anyway).
Then flash KPE through ODIN.The steps to flash KPE are provided in the development section.
Dont worry. It has happened to me too. I got my phone working within 2minutes. All i had to do was remove the battery,put it back and try entering download mode. If it doeant work try again... Im sure it will work.:thumbup:

It happened to me the first time I ever tried flashing thru Odin and I was so scared that I bricked my phone. But then I removed the battery, put it back and entered download mode. Phew! It worked.

try this
1)Open the back over
2)Check between the Camera Lens and the speaker
3) There is a hard reset button which is a small cavity
4) You will need two people for this.. Keep that cavity pressed with a pin
5) Keeping it pressed use the download mode combo- Volume down + Home + Power pressed.
6)Wait and try it a couple of times and your phone will enter download mode
7)Flash to a stock firmware (credits to Adi_Pat for this guide)

Try rebooting your phone or doing a factory reset (if it didn't help, you might be in a need to flash your stock rom)

may be youi are doing it wrong because no 1 is facing this type of problem !!
try clearing dalvik cache and do a factory reset
may be that can solve your problem
and yes do not set frequency of cpu ver low
may be it is the reason your phone showing this type of behavior
