[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] techmentry:
PLEASE READ::: THIS IS NOT FOR UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER / ODIN MODE ON BRICKED PHONE. IF ODIN MODE OR DL MODE AIN'T WORKING THEN USE USB JIG (BUY OF RS 106 OR MAKE YOUR OWN). IT IS JUST FOR REPAIRING SOFT BRICKS AT ONE CLICK (UNLIKE ODIN). DL MODE OPENS IN SOFT BRICK. IF IT DOES NOT OPEN THEN IT IS HARD BRICKED. AS TOLD, PLEASE USE USB JIG TO OPEN DL MODE ON HARD BRICKS.

So you have rooted your Samsung Android phone flashed ROMs and mods that bricked your phone? You can unbrick it with a utility called ODIN but everybody knows that it is very messy to use Odin. We will not be touching Odin now. We don't even have to download the megabyte consuming firmware packages. This time Samsung users can unbrick a soft brick on their phone at just a click and this method is working and also very safe. Full thanks to XDA member AdamOutler and his thread xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=15330252

Requirements:

1. A bricked Samsung Android phone (ofcourse)

2. A PC using Linux, Windows or Mac OSX with Java and Samsung USB drivers installed

3. A working USB data cable to connect to PC

4. Most important, Commensense and brain : )

Steps to Do (Instructions)-

I am supposing that you have already Samsung USB drivers installed. If not, download them here 4shared.com/file/UKUCQTOS/SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_.html. Do restart (cold boot) your PC after installing drivers.

1. Make sure that you have latest version of JAVA installed in your PC. To check if it is installed or to download and install, refer java.com/en/download/installed.jsp

2. Download One Click Unbrick Tool from heimdall-one-click.googlecode.com/files/OneClick.jar to your desktop or in any folder.

3. Connect your phone to your PC using USB.

4. Turn on Odin mode or Download mode on your phone. You still do not need Odin. If you cannot get to Odin mode (vol down+home+power key) it means that either your battery is low than 10% or your phone is hard bricked. Try charging phone for 30 minutes first. If you still cant get to DL mode, use USB jig to get into DL mode (available on eBay for just Rs 100, you can make your own too).

5. For Linux and Mac OSX, double click on the downloaded file OneClick.jar and click on "Unsoft Brick" button and wait for the device to reboot by its own.

For Windows OS, right after step 4, goto the app folder and right click OneClickLoader.exe and choose to Run As Administrator. It is important to run it as administrator on Windows. Click on "Unsoft Brick" button and wait for the device to reboot by its own.

I tried it on my Samsung Galaxy Y, Samsung Galaxy TAB and Samsung Galaxy Grand and it seem to be working like a charm as it fixed its soft brick immediately. Try it :)

FAQ #1: It is not detecting my phone :(

---------- What? Are Samsung USB drivers installed correcting in local disk C:\ drive (C:\SAMSUNG\USBDrivers). If yes, uninstall those drivers> reboot> install again> reboot your PC and phone both. If it still does not detect, try another USB port of your computer. Also make sure that you are running this app as an administrator with all priviliges and your USB is working. If Kies, ADB or any other software that communicates with your phone except One Click Unbrick Tool is started, turn them off too via Task Manager. NOT WORKED? Try goto Device Manager (in One Click Unbrick Tool, there is an option for this) and select device as SAMSUNG COMPOSITE DEVICE.

FAQ #2: I get error USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED when I plugged in my device with my USB.

-------- Oh!! I think that your USB cable is malfunctioning. I had the same error (even with GT-S5360 USB). I used LG USB and it did fix that error. If still it gives error, make sure that the drivers are installed correctly (see FAQ #1) and your PC is not in saving mode :)

FAQ #3: Have I to downliad firmware packages or files too?

-------- No, One Click Unbrick Tool is enough! You do not need any firmware packages.

FAQ #4: What about its working?

-------- It is based on Odin, but not Odin!
