Friends it happens often that while flashing custom roms we brick our phone..
but its very easy to unbrick samsung galaxy y lite duos
to do this you need to have the following
1. Stock rom packages see here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140717
2.odin from here... http://d-h.st/1TM
after downloading above files simply open odin in pc and make sure you're not going to change any default settings in it
and in the PDA simply use the stock rom which you have already downloaded from above it is in the .md5 format
connect your phone to pc make sure you're in download mode to do this simply switched off you're phone and press volumeup+power button+home
all together at the same time and when you're in the download mode plug your phone to pc via usb odin will detect your phone.
after all this click on start odin will flash your stock rom for you and notify you when its done!!!
process is very easy its happen to me a thousand times and i love flashing custom roms,kernels there many available in the site just search it.
ask anything regarding gt5302 i will definately help you.
Thnx for this but plz help me when I am connecting my phone its not detecting it

Hi All,
I was using Samsung Galaxy SL (I9003) with Android Gingerbread 2.3.6. I wanted to install CM10. Here what I did.
-> Rooted the phone using Odin (Windows)
-> Installed CM10 through SD Card
-> Installed gapps through SD Card
So far went well and I was able to install the ROM. But my key board was not working. So I wanted (I got scared on rooting) to recover my stock ROM (which I took backup through CWM)
Now my phone got soft bricked. It goes into boot loop (Samsung logo). Doesn't open up recovery. It goes into Download mode. But none of the computer recognizes it. Odin (Windows) doesn't, Heimdall doesn't, ADB doesn't. Fastbood Doesn't.
I am desperate for a solution to bring my phone alive.
It does turn on and it goes into download mode. But not able to find option to flash the Rom.
I am new to the forum and this area. So sorry for my ignorence
If you've flashed "[ALPHA][ROM][4.1.2] CyanogenMod 10 for Samsung Galaxy SL - Alpha 4 - Farewell Release" and re-flashed other roms other than Alpha 4 without repartition(going back to Odin-Pit-XXKPE/XXKPQ-DDLF2/or any-root) I think you've hard bricked your phone...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2048672

Thanks.. I also think so. if I give it to Samsung service center.. can they recover it (it's out of warranty) - if it is less costlier than a new phone ?
Thanks,
Achir
as far as i know, if you can go into download mode then your phone is not bricked.
just flash back to CM10A4 and follow the step to go back to stock.

How can I flash ? No computer is detecting my device. What alternate option I have ? Can a Jig help ? I think jig is just to put the phone in download mode.
Thanks,
Achir

Lola's i9003 was dead because it does not start... but my friend in this case achir SL is still recoverable...
@achir:dont panic and dont flash unnecessary things...You have soft bricked your SL.. too much of flashing and a small mistake can brick your phone.
and since you said your phone is not detected by ODIN but you can still go in download mode... so here are the steps which can help you..
1.Install samsung USB drivers for I9003
2.Install net framework on your PC
3.Disable your computers Antivirus and Firewall(it may interupt with ODIN process)
4.Restart your PC.
5.Connect your phone in download mode.
6.If its detected by system but not by ODIN then unplug and then replug the phone, repeat this process untill your phone is recognised by ODIN(rebooting of PC should also be done if necessary).
7.Once connected/recognised by ODIN flash a stock firmware.
8.Be patient because the first boot will take a long time.
let me know if it worked well?
You need not worry. I too had a bricked my phone exactly on Jan 1 (and missed wishing my friends as my phone was off).
See my forum where i faced the same issue. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2076250
As our members have mentioned you can reinstall the Samsung drivers in the PC which will make ODIN detect your phone. :good:
Okay. I re-installed the driver but still my PC doesn't recognize it (unknown device). My Mac and my friend's Linux can not recognize it.
I have my personal Mac (Windows is in office laptop which doesn't have full admin). But I tried with Heimdall and ADB in my Mac (I assume doesn't need driver) but they can not list my device.
Now my critical problem is making my Mac detect the device so that I can proceed with some recovery (if at all possible).
You case is very similar with lolation. From cm10a4 with mtd fs direct flash rfs fs. Lolation go to service center.

I tried a lot but it seems no computer can recognize the phone. It seems service center is the only option
Have you try using another usb cable?(maybe the usb cable you're using now is defect)..According to Dhiru, either Alpha 3 or 4 won't result in a hardbrick...read here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35505300#post35505300

Put GT-P5100 in the search box and choose the Rom that you want from the list. You'll need to register to get the link.

You need to quote me in your reply or I don't get a notification.
There's nothing to stop you rooting it again and extracting the data from your nandroid backup once you've installed the Rom
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
You can't really restore them, because they're on a different ROM, it'd overwrite all your fresh and fast ROM.
In two words: you can't.
You will need a country specific firmware, where did you buy your P5100; was it from.. anywhere in the world? Check for a sim card slot.
If it doesn't, get on to reading!
1. Find how much bits your windows is.... this can be done by opening the start orb in the bottom left corner, then right-click on computer. Click Properties, and look for 64 or 32.
Pick 64 if you have 64, or pick 32 if you have 32.
2. Install drivers according to your bits.
These will ensure good experience.
- 64bit: http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOB...dows-x64.shtml
- 32bit: http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOB...dows-x86.shtml
3. Download UK recovery! That is, if you don't have a SIM card slot.
Find here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=22456
Now, I was quite lazy to write a tutorial, so I did copy some sources. they will all be given credit.
1. Download and Install the Samsung USB drivers to your PC from the link above. Reboot your system once after installation. If you have already have KIES installed you can skip this step
Extract the Odin Package you downloaded earlier to your desktop. Look for the Odin exe file. That's the only one we would be using
Extract the downloaded stock firmware zip file to your desktop
On your Tab, go to Settings > Developer Options and Enable USB Debugging
Now Power off your Tab completely. We will now be putting your device into Download mode or Odin Mode as it is also called. Download mode is basically a Samsung Exclusive mode which allows flashing of firmware via Odin. Odin can only communicate with Samsung devices when they are in Download Mode. To get there, press and hold these keys together: Volume Down + Power. Then press Volume Up to enter download mode
On your PC, launch Odin by double clicking the exe file in the Odin folder. Just make sure that Samsung KIES is not running on your PC at this time. KIES and Odin don't like each other very much.
Connect your Tab 2 to PC using the OEM USB cable. Any microUSB cable should work, but I prefer to use the one supplied with the phone to avoid any unforeseen complications. You should see the message Added!! in the main Odin message box like in the screenshot below, as well as as COM Port number in the first slot directly above the message box, which tells you that Odin has recognized your device
odin_zpsc9caf496.jpg
In Odin, click the PDA button, locate the stock firmware .tar file that you extracted in Step 3. If there are additional file for the modem and CSC, add those as well. Make sure the Auto Reboot and the Reset Time boxes are checked and Re-partition box is NOT checked.
Double check everything in Step 8, then hit the Start button to restore your Tab 2 to stock Samsung firmware
Once Odin has finished flashing the CWM recovery, your Tab should automatically reboot. And if the flashing was successful, you should see the word PASS! against a green background at the top-left in the Odin window. This means it is now safe to disconnect your device.

Hey my name is Pauk and I have a problem.
My galaxy fit don`t boot.It only show a light for 1 second then repeat again and again,the same when I charge it, it don`t show the battery charging animation,i can`t acces recovery,download mode is not see by my computer.
Thanks in advance!
Sorry for any gramaticallly mistake I am from Romania
What happened b4 all this?? Pls. give a clear reason (not that u give to customer care)
If your PC can't detect the download mode then you'll need the samsung drivers. This way your PC will recognize the download mode and then you can flash a stock ROM to retrieve your device.
Hope this helps!
this is what happened
I was playing at school and it run out of battery and i put it on the wall charge and i leave it there for 1 hour and when i come back to him he just shows samsung icon for 1 secound than repeat i changed the battery the charger flash stock via odin nothing worked at all

Does it enter download mode?
Can u tell me if u know how to access download mode & did u make sure that the firmware is exclusively for ur FIT? Do u know the correct procedure?
FYI if ever u made a mistake while flashing firmware then 90% chances are...u can't bring it back to life. Keep that in mind!!
responses
Yea i acces by pressing volume down home and lock butons,i flashed one package with odin kies say cant initialize gt-s5670 and heimdall say something like cant initialize...
OK. Tell me the exact name of ops file & one package file that u r using.
Also, u must install Samsung mobile drivers on PC.
information
I dont know i downloaded them frrom sammobile
OK!! Install Samsung mobile drivers(≈22MB) on PC.
The ops filename should be exactly BENI_v1.0.ops. Odin will detect ur phone even if it's not physically connected to PC via cable ONLY IF ops file is correctly named(note that) but ensure that ops file is exclusively for galaxy fit.
Also, if flashing one package(which means gingerbread) firmware doesn't help then u can flash 4 package(which means froyo & has 4 files) firmware via Odin. That will surely bring ur phone back to life.
It's common sense that if model no. contains any alphabet(like GT-S5670L) then firmware should be model specific.
And pls. uninstall kies first b4 proceeding with odin. Sometimes it's also recommended to turn off antivirus, firewall, etc.(Don't know why but yes it is...!!)
Hope this helps...!!:thumbup:
Howdy,
I've screwed up with installing a custom rom over another custom.
Now I'm getting an error:
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again.
It's a tablet:
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (p5100)
In my computer im using windows 10 pro, and adb device is not regonized.
What I neeed to do to get pasted that error?
Thanks for the help!
There is nothing to worry.
It is easy to solve this.
Just download Odin in your pc.
Download the official firmware if your device here.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/GT-P5100/
Now open Odin In pc
Connect your device to the pc .
Now in the app under PDA browse for the firmware you have downloaded and click start.
Wait till it says pass.
That's it you have successfully solved your problem.
Now it will take some time to boot.
In case you feel that you are in a bootloop just go to recovery and perform a factory reset .
Odin download http://odindownload.com/download/Odin3_v3.10.6.zip
HIT THANKS IF THIS HELPED YOU :good:
OOO thanks for the reply.
But I'm getting trouble to get into Download Mode, I mean I can't get in no matter what I do.
I've attacked a screen which I thing that Odin get's the device. Is this ok?
Thanks for the support!

I've just flashed the TWRP recovery over the old one and know it works! YAY.... ODIN FTW

Greetings;
I don't know if you already entered Download Mode...
Most problems accessing Recovery and Download Modes are due to having the USB Cable connected.
Remove the cable; press the key combination; and it will boot.
(Except if there's some incompatible ROM flashed by mistake).
After that plug the USB Cable again (if your USB Drivers have also installed for Download Mode) Odin will recognize it (like shown in your Screen Shot).
REMEMBER:
While Flashing do NOT Remove USB Cable, untill Odin Displays "Pass" message.
Further issues: Let us know. We're would be Glad to help.
Hi
I discovered my Samsung S III stuck on the Samsung screen. I have done all that was suggested but still no luck. It was suggested for me to use Odin to flash it with the original Android system. I read the instructions. I am very new to this. I have Kies my computer. When I plug my wifes phone in it sees it when I plug mine in it says installing drivers then fails. Even if I use Odin will the computer recognize my phone or is it a lost cause?
TIA

look up how to put your S3 into download mode and try Odin it should work if you have the current Odin and firmware files ready and correct USB drivers installed. I have a newer Samsung so I only use Odin, but I make sure it's in download mode first...

You must place your phone in download mode, simultaneously press the keys, volume up, home, and on, a screen with the android logo will appear, press the volume key up and enter download mode, then with the odin already open and the File of the original rom loaded, connect the usb cable to your phone and start downloading the rom to the phone .. :good:
