That's a forced download mode. I've only ever seen this occur to people who attempt to flash I9100 firmwares to I9100G phones. Flash a firmware appropriate to your model, and it should fix it.

its not dead ma8, the phone is in forced dwnld mode.
just remove the batt for a minute then put it back and switch on ur phone and see
if it doesn't resolve then flash a official firmaware pertaining to ur model thro odin and see

Why make another thread ? You already have this thread going with exactly the same issue :-/ Little wonder you borked your phone.
P.S - Your mom was really pissed when I called her earlier & told her what you did to her phone. Prepared to get chewed out next time you see her.

u can always google the same r use the search bar on xda by putiing"Official Ics firmware for XXXXXXXXXXX" where X= ur country name

Stop being a lazy person and research it yourself. XDA is not a support line for idiots, it's for DEVELOPING.

the phone won't turn on, or go to recovery/dowload mode.... so how can i flash stock firmware?

Buy a USB Jig and try. God, I ended up in this mode and flashed a kernel out of panic and it booted. Are you sure you even know what download mode is?

That's for a Captivate, dude.

So what? Every phone with Android have Download Mode. Enter to it by pressing Vol - + Home + Power.

Yes, you can. Your model number is printed on the label under your battery. Once you know your model number, download the appropriate firmware and flash.
All the answers you need are here, dude.

It also occurs when you accidentally flash an I9100G firmware onto an I9100M/I9100 device. Happened to me the first time I flashed my phone.

What did you actually do to get your phone into its current state?
On top of that,
What model is the phone? (i9100, i9100G, i9100T, etc)
model is i9100 now its in the state total off no screen on nor working recovery or download mode i put off battery two hours
Your inability to answer simple questions leads me to suggest that you should contact Samsung. We cannot help you.

Good luck getting any more help.
You can try to get into Download mode using USB Dongle Jig.
If not, JTAG is the only way to unbrick. Unbrivk with JTAG costs about 50$ in my country. It will totaly reflashe the rom (bootloader, kernel, etc.).
Also check this topick http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1615058

[Q] Flashing failed

My luck is very bad. I failed to flash my 9100, and now I can not turn on my phone. No matter I press on which keys, the screen keeps black. And I connect it to my computer bu it can not be detected. I have tried the Counter Reset Patch to go to downloading mode, but failed. So what should I do now? If I sent it back to Samsung Service , how much will they charge me? Or If I can fix it by myself ? Who can help me? Thanks very much..
First, your luck isn't very bad, computers don't have luck, if you've bricked your device it's because you've messed something up not because you're unlucky.
Second, what exactly did you do to flash your phone? You haven't given anywhere near enough information for anyone to help you hence the lack of replies.

As far as I know I am the first. U know under almost all conditions u can fix it by downloading mode , but now I can not enter that mode. So I am unlucky.
1 tip
Try charging the battery using another mobile or external battery charger.Then connect. By my experience usb drivers of android dont easily get damaged or lost until u ruin the rom heart and soul.

What did you actually flash? Firmware, Kernel or are you trying to Root your phone?
If you can go to Download Mode then flash Stock Firmware. To be safe, charge battery to at least 70% before flashing via Odin3 v1.85. Provide more details so it would be easier for others to help....cheers

Did you just flash the "Leaked - 4.0.4 I9100XXLQ5..???
If Yes then the only solution is Samsung Service Centre.

This leaked firmware had cause a lots of Hard Brick to other user not only you.

Bricked after factory reset, I can't even see CWM. Help!

So the thing is I'm using ROOTBOX ICS rom, and because I'm willing to gift my phone to a cousin I did a Factory Reset, then my phone turn off and when it tries to wake up, after Samsung logo, it makes like a blink on the screen... every 3 seconds.
I can't enter CWM Recovery using VolUp+Menu+Power, however I can enter Download Mode using VolDown+Menu+Power.
So guys, give me a solution here please.
Thank you so much.

If you don't want to flash a stock ROM, root, and flash a custom ROM again, you can use one of odin flashable files for custom kernels, not all have one but you can check (Dorimanx for example)
