Get into download mode by pulling the battery. plug in your phone to your pc. while holdin the volume keys down put the battery back in ,this should take you to download mode .then Odin eugenes froyo that doesn't brick after that reset odin and put the pit file and jfd file then odin then you should be fine.

Go read the sticky, as it's more in depth than anyone could be. It also has some videos which you'll most likely need once you get into download mode.

If nothing else works, look up the jig solution. Almost guaranteed that will set the phone on download mode. Once on download mode ODIN back to factory stock. If you are not comfortable i will do it for you for free. Depending on where you are located you could either bring it to me or ship it over.
Hope that helps.

If all else fails, keep your $20 and spend it on this, if you cannot make your own jig:

If you are referring to me i am located in Upstate NY.

If you haven't tried yet, use a different cable or a different USB. If you have a lot of devices plugged in unplug all the ones you don't need and try again.

Goto the vibrant bible and follow the instructions on using the eugene froyo rom that does not brick. Once you loaded that up than you can flash back a 2.1 flashable rom. From there you can use clockwork mod to flash one og the american version froyo roms.

Vibrant wont load past galaxy S screen but buttons still light up

So, I was in the recovery mode and accidently bumped the power button when it was on "delete davlick cache" or something similar and now the phone goes to the galaxy s screen, hangs a while, and the screen goes blank and will not load. The buttons do light up still however. I have tried the odin steps to repair a soft brick using odin 1.0 and 1.3 and I have tried both JVD and JI6, nothing will get the phone going. I have followed the directions to a T so I am wondering if anyone else has any ideas. FYI I have spent the last 3 hours reading and trying methods already described, which is why I am posting a new thread. Thanks in advance for any help.
Can you get into download/recovery mode?
Does Odin recognize it when you plug it into the computer?
Were you trying to flash something when this happened (i.e. why were you in recovery mode in the first place)?
A little more information never hurts =)
~SB
sounds like exactly what happened to me, you'll have to go into download mode and use odin to fix it.
I have the same issue. It happened after I received a T-Mo ota update. I've cleared everything I can find to clear. I can get into recovery mode, but when I select the reboot option nothing changes. Anyone have a link to a walk through that a novice could understand? One with nice little things like links to the programs/files necessary? Thanks in advance.
ok this also happened to me i used this to return to stock and everything came back fine.
since i cant yet post a link i provided the thread # paste it to the end of the address in your browser.

I tried flashing back to the orginal stock t-mobile rom (JFD) through odin but no luck after multiple attempts. I finally just brought it to a t-mobile store and the are sending a replacement. I was fully prepared to take my lumps if they told me it was my problem but since they want to replace it I'm okay with that too. I still have the phone and am going to try some of the other steps that you guys listed before I send it to T-mobile. I was actually partitioning my sd card with the rom manager app and while in recovery I accidentally bumped the power button while "clear davlick cache" or whatever was highlighted. Next thing you know I don't have a working phone. I'm not sure exactly what that does but I do know it messed up my phone. This isn't the first time I've modded phones, did a lot of flashing on my old G1 and Wing and never had anything like this happen.
Oh and I was able to get a good connection with odin, it stated it was successful everytime I tried flashing back to the stock rom but it never fixed the problem.

I didn't go through insurance, T-mo is just replacing it through the warranty. I started to sweat a little when they booted it into recovery mode thinking the tech guy was going to ask the rep at the store to give him the info that comes up to see if it was rooted or modded but the tech just had him clear the phone data and reboot and when that did not work they went ahead and sebt one out. I wouldn't have complained if they told me I was SOL since it was a risk i was taking but I also don't feel bad as they are charging me $10 dollars more a month then I was quoted after my upgrade and I am not sure if I want to go through the hassle of putting in a complaint through the Attorney Generals office. this just may be my payback.
Got it fixed!!!!!
Just got my phone running! Follow the steps in this thread, you first download eugenes froyo and flash to your phone through odin and then immediately flash stock 2.1 through odin and your phone is fixed. I am so happy right now!

[Q] Stuck at vibrant screen after odin

Ok, I was restoring my phone to stock with odin following these stpes
Disable Voodoo
Odin to eugenes froyo that wont brick
sticks at vibrant screen
tried odining to JFD
odin completes but still hangs at the vibrant screen
I have tried with and with out repartition checked and I am able to enter and exit download mode freely, I have tried 3 differnt versions of odin and 2 different downloads of the pda and pits. Any help would be great.
EDIT, Odin is finishing at the pass stage when the phone attempts to boot Currently flashing the JI6 seeing if it works.
Still not getting anywhere, I have now tried to odin to eugenes froyo, JFD, JI6, all which end the same with out a boot screen, I can get download but no recovery.
From my understanding when you flash eugenes froyo that wont brick the boot animation should change to the international one, mine has not done that so I am starting to wonder if there is an issue with the flashes themself.
How long did you wait after flashing the stock firmware? The first boot usually takes a while after an Odin. Did Odin finish flashing everything to the point that it said restart in blue?
You can find instructions to revert to stock http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475
I've gotten myself out of some pretty bad "bricks" with JFD and ODIN... make sure you also use the stock .pit file and you can check repartition, use JFD and should fix you right up.
I have waited for 10-15 minutes after it says restart and then sometimes after it says pass, and I have done to jfd and stock pit.
left phone at boot fell asleep woke up hr or so later still at vibrant screen, still cannot access recovery but can access download mode.
To OP. What custom rom did you run before flashing back to stock? Have you recovered?

I was on axura the newest one and did not like it that much tbh had tons of processes starting nonstop and was constantly down to 35m of memory while idle. No I have not recoverd, I have flashed every combo I can think of with ODIN but alas have had no luck.
Currently it is being warrantied out for a free replacement.

So tired.... I am in the same boat. But I get to flash Eugenes froyo but i have 0 room in app storage. Then When I try to Odin to stock JFD and stock .pit it all goes well untill I get to recovery and it tells me in red text "data wipe failed"
The phone reboots and goes black after the galaxy s animation.
You think samsung will fix it for me? I go the phone in July 2010.
To OP.
have you tried flashing eugenes froyo that doesn't brick? I can't understand why a lot of these bricks are happening right now. Especially when you do flash your phone back to stock.

How would I know if samsung will fix it.. I called tmobile said it got bricked while doing JI6 boom problem solved. Their support is not that great though he was having me try to access root by calling it a secert master menu, then asked if i tethered my comp to it but his definition of tether was syncing files I was just playing dumb and letting him ask me his questions

Rooting your device and flashing custom roms onto it voids your warranty from t-mobile. You are wasting your time trying to see if they will help, This is NOT in their job description. They might laugh at you.
@OP Try flashing to a TRUE stock firmware, I personally would not flash from a custom rom to another custom rom, does that make sense? You should go back to t-mobiles legit 2.1. There is a link in the Bible here under the Dev forum. But, The link is broken. So Ive uploaded it here http://www.mediafire.com/?8kw71bx06an0vwg
Don't give up on odin yet, try things like changing your usb ports on the computer, this has worked for me. I also have a video tutorial using odin, it might be of some help to you. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10207377&postcount=1

[Q] phone bricked, recovery and download mode broken

Rooted with superoneclick
installed cwm from rom manager on the market
installed Stock+Voodoo kernel through odin
tried to install eb01 rom through odin, it failed
got into download mode again
tried installing DI01package3.tar through odin it failed at around 60%
download mode/recovery mode won't start anymore.
instead when I connect the phone I get some weird loading thing that's not moving
and now my PC won't recognize it
Picture of the loading thing?
Also, did you flash the voodoo for another phone?
EDIT: Try taking the battery out and holding the down button while plugging it in, if that doesn't work, you probably flashed something for another phone and you'll need to either use a jig or get a warranty replacement.
EDIT2: Also try this:
Turn the phone into the download mode by pressing and holding Volume Down + Home + Power.
or this: take out the battery, hold both Volume Up + Volume Down and plug it into usb.

hey I dont know what thread I read this on but there was a way to force your phone into download mode, I think the thread is call fun resistors or something.
basicaly the phone is set to do things depending on what is plug to by the usb cable, for instance if you have a car dock it pulls the car app and same for homedock pulls the clock app. well there is a set resistance that will make the phone go into download mode. download mode might be intact but the buttons might no so when you press them it does not detect, but with the resistors it might.
let me know how it goes.

Here's the link. Funny I had just been reading about this for a friend's Vibrant that went and killed itself.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551
Keep in mind that that is in the i9000 forum, so I don't know if each phone uses different resistances to send the phone into download mode or not. Also, I would highly recommend using the suggested USB-micro breakout board, which is available here:
http://www.sparkfun.com/products/10031
It will make life SO much easier.
Do some more googling about your phone, and about forcing it into download mode before you just go soldering in 301k resistors onto a usb board.
Good luck.
Your phone basically IS the Vibrant, follow the steps for the Vibrant to fix it, but use the Telus Fascinate Odin files.
I hope you can find a full odin package cause the DI01 package flashed the bootloaders, modem, and everything else on your phone. Most likely, you have a true brick and you aren't going to be able to fix it.

If you can't find one, use one for the Vibrant, it won't hurt seeing as you already flashed the files for the VZW Fascinate.
If he has anything appearing on the screen at all, it's not a true brick. There's a Telus fix-all Odin. He needs to jig himself into download (see this thread for the simplest method) and apply that (step 1 in this post).
Do *NOT* use any Vibrant Odin stuff. The SBL for that can actually kill the Telus deader than dead.

You should apply the DI01 Odin fix-all package adrynalyne posted.
The OP, on the other hand, is on Telus so he needs a different Odin fix-all package.

Will Donate To Whoever Fixes My Vibrant

im in a soft brick, used aio toolbox to try to flash to stock from 2.2 and now my phone just flashes the vibrant logo and the battery icon with the loading circle thing over it, ive been to 4 or 5 different forum threads about fixing it using odin but nothing has worked. odin goes through the whole process ad says it passes but nothing, still stuck. im about to go to tmobile and either talk my way into a new one or pay the insurance deductible for a new one and forget about all this rooting stuff, but if someone can walk me through fixing it in the next day or two, ill donate via paypal
When you used Odin did you get into the download mode? And which files/ROM did you use with flashing Odin?
You need to use Eugenes froyo that doesn't brick and the stock JFD Eclair ROM that comes with our phone (Stock ROM). I was in your position when I didn't disable voodoo while going to a different ROM once. That scared me to death lol.
If you're phone starts you can fix it. Read the stickies and find the noob guide for Odin then donate to OP.
If you can get into download it is easily fixable.
In the noob section there are methods to getting into download mode. Try this one first, :
Remove the battery, remove the sim and remove sd card. Get Odin up on the computer and plug the usb cord into the computer not the the phone. Holding both volume rocker buttons down at the same time plug the phone into the usb that should get it to go in to download mode. There are variants of this method, like ... do the same but keep the battery in. Or, go into recovery mode and then do the same thing with it on. Read the noob guide by S15274N he has all of them posted and explained.
If none of these work for you, then Buy a jig from Connextion2005 (mobilevideotech.com) for 8 bucks it will get you into Download mode. You can find him in the forum or that website. It works without effort. YOU SHOULD BUY ONE ANYWAY.
Once in ODIN :
You will need a stock JFD Tar file, pit512 file
1 Load the PIT file into the appropriate area and the .tar in the PDA area.
2 You want to check the 're-partition' box.
3 Now click start, let it finish, and this time your phone will load up just fine!
4 Then, root the phone (use superoneclick) then Download Rom manger open it into flash CWM. Then you can flash your new Rom.

Appreciate that man. To the OP, this is easily fixed... oka1 has you on the right path. If you need help, just PM me... I spent 2 hours with a guy last week doing this, rooting him afterwards and getting him a custom ROM... no money was given.
ODIN is the answer. The noob guide has at the bottom of the OP a subject called the ALT METHOD. It will fix your phone, give a leaked froyo (upgrade it later), root and a recovery.... just by pressing like 3 buttons.
i have the jfd tar and both the 512 pit and 513 pit, have tried them both and both with repartition checked and unchecked, tried every combination i could think of even used all 4 of my usb ports, still nothin. in odin when i goes through the process itll say RESET in blue then after about 2 minutes itll say PASS in green, but my phone will just have the battery icon on it with the loading wheel thing over it....thats it everytime. i get into download mode just fine btw
T959UVJFD and s1_odin_2010512
you will have to odin to eugene's froyo that does not brick then odin jfd and 512
yeah i just got eugenes froyo "that doesnt brick" i may be jumping to conclusions but i think it may need a name change cuz now im bricked....just a complete black screen doesnt do anything no download mode no recovery no nothing

OVERSTOCK

My vibrant is gone i guess :'(

I need help. Last night my phone was almost dead and I put it to charge overnight. I woke up checked the phone and strangely enough it was off. I turned it on and it was stuck on the Vibrant logo. I tried going on recovery mode since I'm using CM10.1 and it wouldn't go on it. I decided that I needed to ODIN the phone back to stock. I've done this before and I have the right files for it. Everything went flawlessly. When it was done and started to reboot It was stuck on the Vibrant logo. I need help (again). Is it actually bricked or what? This is my only phone and I've just recently changed it's cracked screen which costed me $100. :crying:
Nope.
Brick = Phone doesn't even turn on.
So basically what your problem is, is the phone just keeps rebooting?
I'm also guessing you can still get into download mode, which you ODIN'd from?
For recovery, try this method:
Hold Volume DOWN + power button, once phone says Vibrant, let go of power and only hold vol. down for ~3 more seconds.
If thats what you've been doing do this:
Hold Volume UP and DOWN + power button, the rest is same as above.
Have you made sure you are flashing the right files from ODIN?
Make sure to re-download all of the files, use a more recent version of ODIN (keep the old one, new ones don't work sometimes)
I'm pretty sure I'm using the right files because I've done this before and it worked. It's like if it doesn't want to work any more. My phone just displays the vibrant logo for about 3 seconds and it just turns off. Download mode does work but recovery mode doesn't work. I've downloaded the files like 3 times and I have ODIN v1.0 and v1.7. Thanks for the help tho...

oh wow.. so I guess that my Internal storage is messed up. I have a sandisk 8gb class 10 though. Thanks for the help mate.
If you're on stock , open Odin and place this overstock tar in PDA with everything else unchecked http://db.tt/ZUcGR23q . Before trying this overstock tar kernel, flash the GB boot loaders first and see if that gets recovery back. Anyway, after odining overstock try to boot and let the voice (Linda)complete the voodoo lagfix and pull the battery and try see if you're recovery is back
so while I put overstock tar I also put the pit file right?

Don't give up bro, Back in the day, I would spend like 6+ hours fixing my soft and hard bricks... My last advice would be to download the semaphore kernel tar and Odin it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1847961 main purpose is to get recovery back. Devil's kernel also has a tar ball for Odin. Choose any version, good luck !!!

Thanks man, I'll try it out.
Just so you know there are plenty of Vibe users that have either fallen victim to the EU bug or other internal sd issues.
We can help. Just be patient and willing. I'll shoot up some links when I get back to my PC that might help.

Indeed, I am one of them. I think I've been EU'd for well over a year now, but it's certainly workable.
You can still enjoy all of newer roms and whatnot, you just have to get the external sd card partitioning straightened out and get used to the vold.fstab swap.
