hey there!
i guess i found the solution for my problem on this forum but i cant find the topic anymore. i just wanted say "thank you" to the unknown author,
and post the solution again, so maybe some more people can find it since it was just coicidence for me..
okay my samsug galaxy ace s8530 has been bricked when some flashing went wrong. afterwards there was no reaction anymore. i was pretty shure ther was no way but doing this.
unfotunetly i found a post without any answers where someone told the following:
1: take out your battery
2: connect your mobile to your pc using the usb data cable
3: keep pressed these three buttons: Vol- , Menu, Power
4: still keep them pressed and put back your battery to the phone. this is not too easy but actually its possible
5: the mobile will go to download mode, flash with odin.
my battery was nearly completly charged when i did this, and
it worked for me! thanks again to the guy who found out!
btw it is also possible to get to the arm9 mode this way. i just couldnt figure out what it was good for.
I will give it a try tomorrow on my s5570 that i just bought/bricked lol
unfortunately it didnt work for me, would creating a usb test jigs help in my case (my phone cant even power on), and does it charge if I connect it to the power cord?

No it's not the same!!!
With your method, you didn't mention to keep pressing the 3 buttons while putting back the battery. In his, there is this instruction.
With yours it didn't show "Downloading".

Help need for bricked ace S5830
Good day to all!
I am trying to help out a colleague who 'probably' has bricked his Ace S5830
He says he was attempting to flash stock 2.3.6 and this happened.
He has been rooted and using CM previously.
Can anyone please advise what this screen/logo means?
It can go to Download mode but not recovery mode.
I can obtain more details if required.
Thanks and cheers to all.
My phone only enter to the download mode, but i can`t flash it, because i have half-bricked USB port. It`s only charges after connecting to PC: "USB Device not recognized" and in the device manager: "Unknown Device" "A request for the USB device descriptor failed.". Any solutions?

If Odin can detect your phone then you should be able to flash your phone with it regardless what the screen looks like.

If Odin detects your phone then there might be a chance to flash a new rom to your device.
Go to samfirmware.com and find an rom/firmware for your phone... Then download it and flash it using one package techinque in odin. If you need more help post your phone model, it might help for better reply ...

Go to this link and get yourself a good rom/kenel that is for your region's device. Then try to flash it using one package option in ODIN in download mode.
You can also find a guide on flashing your rom @ samfirmware.com/guides.htm
Dear All,
I'm in a critical situation,My device is totally stopped working when I have tried to flash a custom ROM (I9100GJPKH8_i9100GDZKH5) to my Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100G but the process failed and can't go further even I'm not able to restart my device the only option to restart is to remove the battery and once i do that i got message telling me that "software update fail" and it won't allow me to go to ODIN menu.
I have searched the net for the original ROM for my device model but with no luck ( Original ROM is: I9100gzcki1_i9100gozhki1_chn)
I seek your help in order to get my device back to work.
Thank you

OK. If you can get into download mode (turn phone off. Then hold down the home button & the volume down button. Keep holding these down then hold down the power button), go to Sammobile & download a I9100G stock rom & flash this in Odin following whatever instructions Sammobile have for flashing stock roms downloaded from there.
If you can't get into download mode there's a slim chance a jig might get you into download mode.
There's a thread over in the General section where people have offered to let other people use their jigs. You might want to have a look at that thread & see if there's someone close to you who might be able to help you out rather than you buying a jig on eBay & waiting for it to turn up in the mail.
You can diy one.

If you tried to flash a custom rom ANYTHING other than Juffo rom based on DZJk2 for Gingerbread on a I9100G using odin and you cannot get into download mode... you probably soft bricked your phone.
Buy a USB-jig (basically a microUSB connected to a resistor, there are multiple videos on Youtube you can make one urself or order it online)
Insert the USB-jig into the phone while its powered off, and you should be able to get into download mode automatically.
Go find the original Stock rom and flash it back and look up how to properly backup/and root your device + using custom rom.
There are not many I9100G roms out there, theres the Juffo Rom and the Dark rom for "ICS experience" if i am correct, someone can correct me on this.
** if a USB jig does not turn your phone on or boot into download mode... and your phone is powered off... you hard bricked the phone, and should go see a JTAG service to unbrick your phone.
Galaxy rom rc3 works great. Try out with Lucifr 1.21kernel.

Hi there
I have a problem with my Samsung s2.
I have installed kies nor any other software on my pc to sync my phone to it. i don't even know how kies works...
I was going through the phone and under system i saw the update option...i updated the phone and the firmware too...after about 3-4 installations and reboots the phone got stuck on the start up screen...i tried hard reboot by holding the power+volume up+menu/OK keys - Nothing happened
then i deleted all my files from the sd card but that dint help either. Then i saw a video on youtube about clockworkmod... i followed that and after doing so the phone now goes to start up screen with a yellow triangle. when i try installing the ROM from odin it fails. Since then i got an icon showing that there is an error on the connectivity between the phone and the computer...i ran the clockworkmod again using odin and the phone returned to start up screen with a yellow triangle. The phone only goes to download mode but doesn't go to recovery/clockworkmod anymore (power+volume up+menu/OK buttons).
Another weird thing is that the phone doesn't turn off, as in if i press the power button for about 5 seconds the screen goes off but turn back on again...so if i have to reboot the phone i have to completely remove the battery n put it back in. when connected to the computer i don't see any storage drives on my computer only Odin detects the phone.
Please help me...
Thanks
Abbas
first try if you dont have a jig, remove battery and put back then Vol-down+Home+power...once you get download mod
Try a stock GB version on the ODIN from the link of All stock roms in my signature
make sure KIES is not running...and connected your phone directly to your PC motherbord USB socket, not through any hub or front USB socket...
better you give a full description of your problem like "soft bricked" instead of just "Q" on the heading, so that other can see at a glance...
Hi Zaheed,
Sorry about the heading...i actually accidentally posted this thread without the heading and now i cant see where i can edit it.
I will try what you have suggested and will revert to you.

this one is working: http://skywanker.net/download/downl...9100_DBT_I9100XWLA4_I9100XXKI4_I9100DBTKH1.7z
just download and unzip, then you wil get a single file, which to be selected from PDA of ODIN...thats it
feel free to ask more....

Hello,
I am new to the S2 forum. I have purchased the phone on Dec 04. It came with firmware version 4.0.4.
The PDA was I9100XWLPW and CSC was I9100ODDLPC.
After a week, I flashed the leaked JB firmware XXLSJ and used PhilZ cwm6 kernel to obtain root.
I was not having any problems until today.
I was using the phone normally, it had about 60% battery. Suddenly it was not waking up ( The phone was not used for about 15min ). I tried removing the battery, all button combinations but was not booting normally or into recovery. I could get into the download mode by plugging the phone to the PC. Odin failed to flash the official FW and the JB leak. I followed the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458 and found out it was a corrupted NAND r/w function.
I tried doing all the steps given in the thread. Now my phone does'nt go into the download mode and does'nt show charging when plugged to a power source.
Can I recover my phone?
Please someone help me or guide me to a previous post that solves this problem!!
Edit: Samsung service has replaced the mother board!!
Doing the pit partition has resulted in my phone getting bricked!!
So people new to the forum, never do it :laugh:
Hi,
You said you couldn't access download mode, but can you access CWM recovery?
If you can then, you should wipe data/factory set, wipe cache and wipe Dalvik-cahe. after that you should re-flash your ROM.
If that doesn't work, maybe you should restore your CWM/Nandroid backup of your ROM before you flashed the JB leak XXLSJ, which in this case seems to be Stock ROM. (providing that you have backed it up in the first place)

We already have plenty of topics about this why do you feel the need to create another? Your symptoms are no different to others and the answers are no different.
If you cant access download or recovery and cant power on then try a USB jig. If that doesnt work then you will need to take/send it for repair which will either be JTAG or complete mobo replacement.
Just because you create your own topic it doesnt mean answer is going to be any different.

today I wake up with the same problem.(Bug from the junary 1st???). I'm on Leak 4.1.2 too
Mi Galaxy sII don't charge the batery (loop from charge batery symbol) All the combination button don't wake up the phone.
The only thing seem working is the download mode. Don't try to connect to ODIN for the moment.
Any idea?

If you can access download mode, use it. Try re-flashing your kernel.

Use the search button and use keywords "usb jig". Or google.

We already have plenty of topics about this why do you feel the need to create another? Your symptoms are no different to others and the answers are no different.
If you cant access download or recovery and cant power on then try a USB jig. If that doesnt work then you will need to take/send it for repair which will either be JTAG or complete mobo replacement.
Just because you create your own topic it doesnt mean answer is going to be any different.

I am sorry!! I am new to this forum and the phone being a recent purchase, i was very much desperate!!
I know the answer may not be different and the problem may not be new hence I've asked to guide me to the appropriate thread in my post!! No offence!!
Thanks for your reply. I will be taking the phone to Samsung Service tomorrow.

3 100k resistors + 1k resistor in series connected between 4 and 5 pins of a male usb end when plugged will get you into download mode in case of soft bricks .

In some of the posts, I've read that a JIG may not work on ICS based roms!!
Is this true?? Should I try a JIG first before I take the phone to Samsung Service??
I was on XXLSJ before the phone went dead!!

I had the same problem.. I could get into the download mode by:
1. Phone completely OFF state
2. Connect the USB cable to the phone and PC ( The battery charging indication has to come, atleast once )
3. Fire up ODIN
4. Get the phone into download mode ( Vol-down+home+Power ) while the phone is connected
5. The phone is now recognized by ODIN.
I could flash a kernel (tried siyah and Philz) but the phone was not booting.
While trying to flash Stock and XXLSJ, ODIN was getting failed at factoryfs.fs
After a few trys, the phone just went dead!!
Hope you can flash a firmware successfully :good:

You are misinterpreting what you read. What you're referring to is resetting the binary counter, and no it doesn't work on ICS bootloader however it still works for putting device into download mode (unless its bricked).

"Soft-brick" has absolutely no meaning, Your device is either "bricked" or it isnt. Its a made up term by n00bs when they cant get system to boot normally. Your devcie is only bricked when it wont power on or go into useable recovery+download modes. If you can simply use a jig or go directly into flashing a rom then your device is not bricked.
The "bricked" term is used far too loosely nowadays.

Your phone died? you kiding ?
I'm using the leak version of Sammobile since 3 weeks... Why do you think the phone make a bad reaction now? why now?
Ok, you try to flash OFW and don't result. and then you flash again the XXLSJ ? and the phone colaspe?
What kind of roms do i flash? OFM or CFW ? ICS or JB ?
Well if a can connect with ODIN of course
A quick question!!
Is it possible that the phone can be revived (put into download mode) using a JIG if it is not starting at all for any key combinations and it is not showing charging animation when plugged into a computer or a power source??

Yes its possible which is the reason we already mentioned to try it
It all depends on the actual base issue though as to whether it will work. Its worth a try either way though, They only cost £1-2 or you can make them yourself if you have the spare parts. (Don't ask how, Use search).
I have tried the JIG, but no luck!!
I have given the phone to Samsung Service.
Hope they fix it!!
Will they use JTAG or it has to be done somewhere else in case Samsung people refuse to do it??
They wouldn't refuse just act dumb tell something like you were updating firmware via kies and all of a sudden power went down and device bribed
