perhaps a USB Jig may be of use to you in this situation to get you to download mode (Check my sig if you need a USB jig)
once you go to download mode, you can get to flash a stock firmware from odin
cheers!
By bricked doesn't that mean it's better off at a repair shop?
Since you can flash through odin. Tried flashing stock fitmwares? there's a site where you can download them.. Google.
Bricked ??? the OP may just be saying fully bricked without knowing .
Service job is paid for no warranty .
OP does not mention recovery mode .
jje
just try to go to samsung center and they will give their warranty. because they can get into download mode too so they can check your binary count dude

Its probably bricked.
There is a thread here to unbrick it. You can try that.
The unbrick thread wont do anything.. There's no way to revive the phone when u use ROM manager.. U need to sent it to warranty..
Another sad case of rom manager. Lol
Btw it probably bricked.. if couldnt even boot into download mode, u can try to use usb jig

Oh my god, you bricked your phone!!

I hope you still have the warranty....

You have to say that you had a problem with the phone (for example wifi or SOD) and you did a factory reset. Then the phone never restart again.
Never says you rooted the phone, just says "I did a factory reset"
I had the same problem. Went to the service center & made up a story & got my ace repaired without paying a single rupee.

just send it to the service center ... the same thing happend with my ace.. i got the mothrbord replaced under warranty.. don tel them that u were messing up with the phone... and also dont mention about the root and all.. u will get warranty.. chill..
This is lesson for us all. We should read through the threads and all the comments if we are not sure of what we are doing. Me myself gave almost 2 weeks just reading threads about rooting and upgrading just to make sure i wont brick my ace.
Ace is my first android phone btw.

When will u people learn??? ROM MANAGER WILL BRICK UR PHONE!!
Guess some people need to learn the hard way huh..
First try to boot into dowload mode and flash via odin.
If cannot even boot into download mode, service centre is ur only solution. just send to them and made up story eg ur phone brick after upgrade using kies. Dont ever mention about rooting, installing custom rom etc etc.

VillianRom running on Ace?
Hey Guys...i would like to know if the VillianRom can run on the ace without bricking it...btw i had read the comments posted online but my trust level 2 that is some what low...
Sorry for my bad english
I got a Samsung GIO S-5660.
I installed Rom Manager and i installed the clockworkmod recovery.
But now the phone wont boot, dont start in recovery mode and not in download mode.
If i use a jig cable, will it work?
I have also the same droid, and I am in the same situation as you. I am very very sorry for us both, we shouldn't touch ROM manager, there is no fix, even no jig. Go to service center....
can you not manualy fix this?
upload a other bootloader or recovery
I tried alot alot of things, nothing helped me. I'll watch people replies
then i have to wait.
i hope they fix it
i am in the same situation like u guys !!! i will take it to warranty !!! too bad i didnt read this post before i`ve installed rom manager !!

Firstly, wtf is JB 2.7??
If you cant power on your device try using USB Jig. If that doesnt work then its flucked and needs a new motherboard.
What exactly is a JB 2.5?
Sorry if is not clear
i have use this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854
and update my first rom (2.5 to 2.7)
After this i have restart , and nothink happend after this ..
i have buy the Jig USB , and try (this morning) nothing .. the S2 don't start anything ..
what i can do after this ? the Emergency start don't work , jig usb don't work .. i'm totaly lost
i hope anyone here can me help ?.??.?
If the phone won't boot, and you have no download mode or recovery, the phone's Donald. There's no pixie dust that's going to magically fix it.
Service centre & hope they either don't notice or don't care you've been messing with the phone so they fix it under warranty (and they're quite entitled to charge you for it given you borked the phone), or it may be JTAG'able which will probably be cheaper than Samsung/authorised repairer fixing it if they do decide to charge you for the repair.
Maybe you didnt check your battery level when flashing and it sucked all your juice... try charging your phone

No download mode ... that's bad.
Can you boot into recovery mode (Volume UP + Home + Power till recovery menu appears)?
If yes, then your phone is only semi-bricked.
Have a look here hw to fix a bricked phone => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458
With a working rcovery mode, you can try to wipe data/do a factory reset.
If that does not help, you can flash the ROM (if it is a CWM recovery) again.
If it's stock recovery, then flash a rooted kernel with CWM recovery like PhilZ-cwm6 kernel (=> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877270) - use the kernel zip file and flash it in stock recovery.
Then you can boot into CWM rcovery and flash the ROM.
Good luck !
P.S.: If neither download mode nor recovery mode work, then your phone seems to be hard-bricked. If you are still on warranty, bring it to a service center for repair/replacement.
thnx sir but my phone is neither coming in download nor coming in recovery mode and hard bricked..I bought it from UK H3G and currently i m in India. So, they will not repair it in warrenty...Is there any other option or how much it cost to me?
If you have no warranty, take it to a local mobile repair shop & have it looked at. Or contact Samsung by email & ask them who does authorised repairs near where you are.
I doubt you'll be solving this problem yourself.
What is JTAG repair? I heard somewhere that bricked phone can be repaired by JTAG.
These guys do JTAG repairs, if you do a Google search you'll find others (ask local mobile repairers near you, they may also do JTAG's). This might be the cheapest option if it can be JTAG'd; you're only going to find that out if someone who does them has a look at your phone.

Hi all
thanks for all,
I got the solution , i Flash bootloader with odin.
Now my phone is stared but not getting able to register in Mobile network , seems my IMIE number is lost ,
I have old nandroid backup i am going to restore to store my IMIE
Thanks All for your help
Hate to break it to you, but restoring a nandroid isn't that likely to bring your IMEI back. If you're very lucky, flashing a stock rom for your country/carrier (if you're already running one, flash others) might bring it back if it's a case of temporary IMEI loss. If not, many mobile repair shops (not Samsung service centres) should be able to write the IMEI back to the device relatively cheaply. And if not, a Samsung authorised repairer can do it (or they may replace the motherboard which has already been suggested to you), but that can obviously be somewhat expensive.
Or if lucky op might find a efs backup somewhere in internal memory
