[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] m3keni:
something like this???

If so, try to remove the battery.. leave it out for about 30 - 60 seconds.. patience is the key..

Try to restart your computer and then upon restart.. load odin.. load pit.. code.. modem.. csc..

Now on your phone.. press the volume down + home key then power ON the phone.

Connect your device to your computer.. ding ding..

As per the odin application choose, enabale re-partition..

Then press START.

**cross your fingers and hope for the best.

**i encountered that screen when my lappy suddenly died.. unplugged the wrong power cord (my lappy's battery is MIA at the moment).

Wish you all the best and hope this works. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
Yup, thats the screen. Today quickly in the morning managed to start up odin, but it got stuck on "set pit file, do not turn off" step. Stuck there for some 5 min already.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] m3keni:
..since it's been 5 minutes already.. disconnect your phone and then remove the battery for about a minute or 2.

..prepare the following..

s1_odin_20100512.pit *from http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=359929&d=1279109916

PDA: CODE_I9000XWJG5.tar *from JG5 firmware

PHONE: MODEM_I9000XXJG1.tar *from JG5 firmware

CSC: CSC_I9000OXXJG4.tar *from JG5 firmware

..Access the download mode of your phone.. vol down + home ++ ON..

..Open ODIN3 and then set the directories for the files listed above..

..Connect your phone to the PC and wait for about a minute or 2..

..On ODIN3.. ID:Com should show something.. yellow bar with com port ranging from 1 to 10..

..tick Re-Partition and when you are ready click START.

[that is the exact steps I followed]
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
Thats exactly what I have been doing (and tried flashing pit 513 + JG1, as it was my previous firmware), but once again am stuck at crashes in odin.

Will try, if everything fails today, to flash it from friends computer in the evening.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darkstriker:
Have you tried downloading a fresh copy of odin? Odin should not need any compatibility modes so you should start looking for what you changed on your PC between the last working and the non-working flash. But rest (relatively) easy: The state your phone is in, is quite easily recovered (given you have a working PC)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
Just reflashed my phone successfully. In case anyone has the same error in future what I did is:

1) Run ODIN with admin rights and in comparability mode.

2) Restart. I did about gazilion restarts, both windows and phone.

3) Every flash - restart of phone (remove battery), without SD card or SIM card, restart of Windows (7 x64) - during the boot process press F8 and Select "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement". (thanks to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=723041 ).

Every restart - new USB port, not sure if it did affect anything.

4) While I have seen recommendations to close Kies and any other software that could use COM ports (I have OVI Suite and Nokia PC Suite installed for my old Nokia 5800) on last sucesful flash-reboot I left everything running.

5) Try re-downloading ODIN again, in case it is corrupted. Or re-downloading the firmware.

6) Very possible solution for my original problem (screenshots) - starting ODIN as soon as windows starts and to flash as soon as you can after windows start. Seems to fix my original issue.

7) Interesting solution by eizyark

The most sucessful combination proved to be:

a) Restart the PC using the Disable Driver Signature Enforcement.

b1) Optionally (if you already have bricked device) try leaving Kies on (tray icon).

b2) Run ODIN and select files you wish to flash (I used pit 512 and JG5 files - all 3, code-pda, modem-phone and csc).

b3) Usually it is recommended to select "Re-Partition" (in some cases might actually help you unbrick - experiment) - I did not.

c) Switch on the phone (insert the battery) and boot into download mode (Volume down + Menu + power)

d) Connect the cables (cable was disconnected from both the device and laptop). At this stage Odin should see your device, as described by flash tutorials (yellow + COM).

e) Flash.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
Actually I did. Don't think it was actually a problem with ODIN as its just an executable file. Old-new file sizes were the same and it made no difference trying to flash.

All I can say - Im guite a geek, have been playing around with computers for more than decade and I still dont understand them. I really have no idea what was so different this time, but I actually did flash my phone again.

What is even funnier - just tried to flash the modified kernel for ext4 partition on sd card - same error (phone though reboots without any problems).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] eizyark:
I think I found another way as well on how to save your phone. I had a similar problem. what I did was, when odin has detected the phone, press start without adding anything. after a few seconds the phone will boot up normally. well it worked for me, maybe this might help others as well.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
Maybe we should pin this or any other topic for people to post if they have bricked their device?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darkstriker:
I'm sorry to say this and I in no way mean to offend you:

This "Solution" is a seemingly random collection of steps, any of which may have originally been the real solution. However, many of the steps are likely superfluous and before this can become a guide/reference, you would definitely need to narrow this down to steps that need to be taken in specific situations.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] damianarnold:
If you have this screen then just disconnect the USB lead, press and hold, power, vol. down and home until the 'Downloading' screen appears, start ODIN and then reconnect the USB and reflash.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
I know =) It was just a solution for my original problem. Thats why I said that this, or any other topic. Its just now we had close to 10 topics, not to mention posts in faq or original topics about each firmware asking pretty much the same questions and describing the almost the same problem.

Introduce a bit of order to anarchy, so to say ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darkstriker:
The problem is that (unlike your issue) 95% of those could be resolved simply by reading the FAQ properly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Fade777:
ODIN

1st post :)

My phone was stuck in this infinite loop where try as I might I couldn't get it to re-flash I tried different computers and all and the only thing that worked was getting odin to flash without a rom.

it got my phone out of the loop ;)

Helped heaps

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mchu6am4:
Hi,

Sorry to interrupt but I've managed to brick mine completely...I was trying to update to Froyo without getting any far (not applied any firmware as yet) but I thought I could try the three button fix first so I downloaded the .zip file and stored in root directory of phone.

Before I could apply the fix...i was messing around and the three button worked without applying the fix. However, in recovery mode, first i deleted the data and did a factory reset followed by .zip update (three button fix file...what was i thinking!) which screwed up the phone useless.

It does not power up at all even after removing battery etc...the pc will not recognise it either!

Anything i can do without sending back to samsung/vodafone (the phone was rooted!)

Thanks in advance..ash

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dorin89:
i have a similar problem

i have copy a 2.2 rom and renamed update.zip on my internal card,

rebooted in recovery with adb tools because at my phone the 3 keys shortcut doesnt work

started update instal in recovery,all good,but when it reboots he always gets stuck at samsung galaxy s logo and play the tune of the bootloadr and nothing hapens ,it doesnt get over

at the service they told me that i messed up the bootloader and rom with the ****y roms that fake original 2.2 like doc's roms on this forum,now hope that they will fixe it,but is a long time to w8,so i'm a bit angry and bored on w8

do u have the same problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mchu6am4:
Mine's worse (or better depending on how you look at it) ..it doesnt power up at all, I tried to apply the three button recovery patch and it died completely...taken battery out etc...done various other things but sign of life!

What I did though prior to trying to apply zip patch was to delete data/factory reset (using the three button method - it was working on mine without me knowing!) prior to stupidly applying patch (maybe this deleted the zip file also) and everything went kaputt!!!

I'm hoping they'll not bee able to figure out anything without reflashing as mine was rooted!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zenkinz:
that's not brick just that the phone has an incomplete firmware data, and therefore can't boot. your bootloader is still working, so you can get into that mode and reflash the firmware again. I know of people having a brick phone that cna't even get into the download mode (and firmware is corrupted so no way of doing adb recovery)

for windows x64, I find that odin v1.3 is far more reliable than v1.0.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dorin89:
i cant go in recovery,the 3 buttons trick doesnt work at my i9000.

so the only solution is for the service to reinstal boot and rom on the galaxy circuit board.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocRambone:
Dorin: you should read some more about how to flash roms. And your insults will be reported...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] OrionBG:
After I've tried to flash the 3button fix the phone will not boot but only show this screen above! The phone is not detected by Windows at all! Any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darkstriker:
Can you please change the title of the thread? The original issue has not reoccured and it is really kind of misleading since the info is three month old and the thread got pushed by a clueless user who bricked his phone beyond any guides by rising things.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mike.sw:
Guys, a bricked phone is a phone you can't start and reach recovery/download mode. Please consider editing the topic.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dorenthe:
I can#t reach the download/recovery/odin mode...

The buttons are not working as well.

Is it definitly bricked?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ragin:
You can try the usb jig.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dorenthe:
Ok, but I have an appointment with a Samsung customer...

He told me he can fix the problem... can he?

He has a special program, do they have the same like ODIN or do they have really a special program or hardware dongle to avoid the hardware lock.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gratti:
Good question, since there's no skype for android whatsoever and that skype beta lite that was floating around is a useless piece of crap.... My guess it's we are fkt.

The first thing I noticed when I switched to android was the lack of an official skype app and I can't believe that skype completely ignores android. Maybe now that android released their SDK publicly we will seen some app that will integrate skype.

Or if skype team start doing some work they release the goddam official app.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cubano21:
Hi all

I tried to root my evo (which had received the OTA 1.47.651.1 update already), but I've run into some problems...

I tried using the simpleroot OTA edition, but kept getting an error in step 3 where the script was unable to create a file in /data/app-cache/...

After that I tried the newly released unrevoked 3 method, which appeared to be working until near the end it rebooted the phone and said it was flashing the recovery, but the phone booted as normal and the program sat there saying it was flashing the recovery for >10min at which point I closed the program.

I was going to try one of the manual methods, but new when I boot into the HBOOT I get an error saying the main version is older, update failed. I've tried a couple different PC36IMG.zip files and all of them get the same error. And if I try to do a factory reset the phone just boots into the HBOOT screen and does nothing.

My phone can still boot normally and is usable except the camera will not turn on.

Can anyone try to help me fix my phone and get it rooted? Or at least restored to its original state?

Thanks in advance for any help!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cubano21:
ok scratch the camera part, after leaving the phone off for a bit and rebooting it appears to be working again... but the rest is still messed up
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imnok1:
i had the same or similar problem because i had tried both root methods.

i got it to work with unrevoked 3 after:

1. removing pc36img.zip from the root of the SD card (apparently it'll always try to load a local image before attempting to connect to the PC)

2. uninstalling htc sync from the PC (others say this wasn't necessary, but it was definitely the step that allowed it to work successfully for me)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cubano21:
It turns out PDAnet also interferes with the driver accessing the evo.

Once i removed htc sync and pdanet both from my computer i was able to root my phone successfully.

not sure what the issue with simpleroot was though, but i didn't explore too deeply since unrevoked 3.1 worked now.

[Captivate General] MendedEagle:
Oh nice. I could buy it off contract Sunday or wait another week and a half and buy it as my upgrade.

Think I'll wait haha.

Cant wait to get rid of my BlackJack II. It just gets slower and slower. Messaging keeps crashing and won't open.

I had a slight hesitation about buying another Samsung phone but I have to realize the power the Captivate has over the Blackjack II and that they should definitely not be compared.

Can't wait to get my hands on this phone.

Might try to see if I can get it early before the upgrade period starts. Fingers crossed :cool:
[Captivate General] cbk.o4:
You can get an early upgrade and since you are so close to your upgrade date they will probably only charge you the $18 upgrade fee, and not the early upgrade. The manager should be able to override the extra fee if you convince him.

My upgrade isn't until Oct 5. and I am able to upgrade but it will cost me an extra $75.

If you know how to photoshop and edit .png files, you can always play around with the framework-res.apk file.
