[Q] Bricked my I9001?

Hey guys,
I tried to install TW4 but that didnt worked for me.
Now i only have a black sreen when the phone starts.
And i cant get Odin to work because i cant connect the phone to the pc with usb.. i only can get in boot mode.
Anyone know a soluction to my problem?

Can you get to Download mode...home+volumedown+power button combination??

Is that the same way as going into boot mode?
instead pushing vol.up button i need to push vol.down button?
Edit:
Yes i can get in download mode

so if you can enter download mode there is no problem, just install new rom ...

when i try to install a new rom with odin it gives me a massege "connect a telephone" but it is connected through usb..
i got the ops file in odin and by "one package" i put the md5 file.
But then i get that massege "connect a telephone"

Try an other USB-port, make sure Kies is not running and use Odin 4.43.

i dont have kies on the computer and i use odin 4.43.
i tried another usb port but no changes..

But Kies includes drivers for the phone - so do you have properly installed drivers for your phone?
OT: Is there a chance to take back given "Thanks"? I accidentally pressed "thanks" instead of "quote"

Yeah but such a problem seems to occur relative often.
I would try to reinstall drivers, maybe with the Kies-drivers or use another computer.

I have similar problem. There is the same symptoms.
I have try:
- other usb ports
- other drivers (original samsung / kies drivers)
- other pc
- kill kies processes
- misc roms
and.. nothing..
I cant get recovery mode.. There is ramdump mode instead of recovery :/
Actually my i9001 is bricked and I cant load any rom..
Maybe my sgs is locked by bootloader or something?

if ure entering ramdump mode then u dont have the correct combination of buttons down when booting up:
Vol + / Power = Recovery Mode
Vol + / Home / Power = Ramdump Mode
Vol - / Home / Power = Download Mode
cheers

At least your guide on how to get to recovery is a big fail. That works with I9000, not I9001. Vol + / Power, WHEN the samsung text appears, release both buttons. AND when the lights in the softkeys turn on, quickly tap MENU, that's how to boot to recovery mode

well sorry if i left that part out, i assumed he would know how to navigate the recovery mode once he actually got the button combo right. and the only fail here is ur rude attitude, deff. no need for that around here imho.
aside from that, all these instructions are correct.
cheers

I solved the problem.
Unfortunately not on my PC. My i9001 needed a box which I solved all mistakes.
Now I have Gingerbread with root
Unfortunately I still hav a problem with my PC which doesn't want connect with sgs.. :/
I will try trial and error method.

Try to turn your phone off and put your device into RECOVERY MODE (simultaneously press and hold Vol + and Power buttons) and choose wipe data/factory restore and wipe cache partitions. All data will be lost.

i already done it but nothing happens...

Try to connect with kies and try recover firmware from options of kies
or download firmware from www.samfirmware.com and flash via odin
You will start clean unrooted

I have found your firmware in samsung kies servers but there is no link that I can share to you.
I have to download it myself and then upload it to dropbox or something.

Hi,
I tried that option also but still it is taking.
Thanks.

Enable advanced reboot from developer options, then reboot into download mode from power button as normal. Or just reboot into download mode using ADB
It could be a hardware failure in your device ..

hello,
To get "dowload mode" press "power button"+"volume button down"

For ADB from your computer type
adb reboot download
Of course you should have adb SDK tools on your computer first and have Samsung drivers installed if Kies is not installed.
For advanced reboot options, it is based on what ROM you are running .. Generally, go to settings=>developer options=>enable advanced reboot
You should get the option to reboot to download mode when you press the power button=>reboot

Your doing exactly like in this video?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAvze-VNzj8

Look it's pretty simple
Power button plus volume up (volume button closest to power button) takes you to recovery
Power button plus volume down (volume button furthest from power button) takes you to download mode
FYI, folks with a 10", your volume buttons are the reverse of the 7" volume buttons.

Just install PDANet drivers from here: http://pdanet.co/a/
Then install PDANet on your Tab on Play Store.
Go to ADB Command on Platform Tools by pressing on the carpet Shift + Right Click : Open a Command Box here...
Finally write: adb reboot download.

Downloadmode does not work after failed installation of cyanogenmod
I have the same issue after failed cyanogenmod installing. I tried to put it into download mode with all of the button combinations, but it does not work. How can i fix it? Forcing to download mode or something like that. (I dont have recovery file.) Is ti possible to recover it directly to cyanogenmod?
It say: "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.".

Download mode
Hi! I've lost more than an hour trying to enter in download mode on a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 GT-P3110
Finally I've discovered a silly thing - The USB cable must be DISCONNECTED from the tablet, when entering the download mode. Otherwise, the battery charging logo will popup an the tablet will keep restarting!
Hope this helps someone somewhere...

Download mode problem

Ready to flash my first custom rom.. but when i go to enter download mode (3 keys, volume down) I get the blue downloading screen straight away, like while flashing rom . No usb in, not came in contact with odin before.
When I upgraded from 2.1 to 2.2 on kies, windows may have searched for drivers too quickly (while still installing) but wasn't pulled out. All went fine, but on phones boot kies didn't find the device that time. Now I enter kies and it states 'install not complete(false) recover?' but that approach also needs down mode!
Factory reset and sd out made no difference.
Is there any other way to enter download mode?
Or show kies the download's done maybe?
update.zip from sim any use?
I'll donate really want this rom
Cheers guys

try this..

[Q] Some other functions of my device not working.

Hi there. I need help for my device. After I rooted my Samsung galaxy core I8262 i'v planned on installing the CWM Recovery. But before that, I tried to back up my device using the TITANIUM Backup. While the backup procedure is on the process my phone shuts down (because the battery is low i guess). After then, when i turned on my phone, the boot process stops only at the SAMSUNG logo. But after a couple of restarts (maybe 10 i guess) my phones passes the boot process of the SAMSUNG logo. Now while i'm using my device I've found out some other malfunctions like:
1) I can't detect and bluetooth devices even other devices tried to detect me but its undescoverable.
2) I can connect to a hotspot device, but i cant access the Internet even if it has a connection.
So far those where the problems that i had encountered yet after the backup problem occurs. What should I do in this kind problem? Should i upgrade my firmware?
Thanks

How will i do that? Thanks?
I already have an Odin v1.85 but I dont really know how to do it?
Im new in this ^_^

Download the stock firmware from the site SamMobile, then turn off your phone and press Power + Volume ↓ + Home and vibrates when the phone leaves the power and press volume ↑. Then connect your phone to the PC, open odin, click pda and select the file . md5 of the stock rom you downloaded and click start.
