don't flash ics once you are using jelly bean! that will lead to SDS(sudden death syndrome). you will murder your phone!

recovery mode is home button+volume up+power! you need not enter recovery mode to flash firmware via odin! you need to enter download mode(home button+volume down+power) and connect to pc and flash via odin! after flashing is done, enter recovery mode and factory reset!

sriram231092 said:

No download mode then you can try as a last resort a USB Recovery Jig to access download mode .
Otherwise its a service centre .

your phone is not broke! Relax! Enter Download mode (Vol. down+ home+ power) and flash a stock firmware of your region or any other stock! Guide here
PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS!
If the phone does not boot up and is looping, then simply remove the battery> Reinsert> enter recovery (vol. up+home+power) and do a factory reset and cache wipe and reboot!

Jig is your friend.

My phone does the same thing, it just turns on every time I try to put it into recovery mode.

are you sure the jig will work because i read online that that only fixed soft bricked phones, and mine is described as a hardbricked phone
if your phone could not turn on, jig probably won't work for you. It is best used for boot-loop or similar situations.

If home is a soft key then you have the AT&T SGS2. Go to that forum and ask for the key combination for download mode. Once you are in download mode flash a rom.

You're ****ting me.
even if you were dumb enough to flash a bloody hero rom, you should be able to get into recovery unless they implemented a hero recovery into it.
get odin, put your phone in dl mode and run it, flash a new recovery.
Search the forums
Can you put your phone in download mode? Because if you can you can just reflash a stock rom from samfirmware.com onto it using Odin.
This thread may help you in reflashing a stock firmware:

I hope you manage to fix it
In future stick to roms made for your model only

[Q] 5830I cant get into download mode. pls help

HI there,
I can start my 5830I normally and everything works fine.
I can get to the recovery mode, by vol.+/home/pwr, and everything there works fine
When I vol.+/vol.-/pwr, I got a black screen (the backlight LED is on), and no download mode.
The vol.+/vol.-/pwr used to work and I had flahsed my 5830I a few times. Then I used CWM 5.0.2.6 to bakcup my phone and did one restore. Then I cant get into download mode anymore.
I could connect my phone to computer using SDK. I can use adb reboot recovery to reboot the phone to recovery
But if I use adb reboot bootloader, the phone just boots normally.
I fear that my bootloader has somehow damaged, either by CWM or by my last flash (using odin 1.83, I flashed also the bootloader file and with re-partation checked).
I wonder how I can fix this problem and get into the download mode. I can now use my phone normally and the current system seems to be quite fine. But I still want to have the chance to flash.
Thanks a lot!
Reboot bootloader does nothing because the phone doesn't have an accessible bootloader

I didn't flash any recovery. I just restored my own back up using CWM.
"CWM 5.0.2.6 "
Maybe you used wrong CWM not for yours S5830i but for S5830 D/B etc
Use only this CWM ClockWorkRec5830i.zip

That's exactly what I used.
Download Mode: Volume Up, Volume Down, Power.
For galaxy ace 5830i
Try this method
Try this:
1.
Download multiloaderx_v565
2.
Start your phone normally...
3.
When phone started:
Hold down Home key and in multiloader press "port search".
its a forced download mode

the drivers should automatically install as soon as you connect the phone. did you try all the usb ports on the pc/laptop? sometimes might be faulty usb ports also!

S3 Stuck on Samsung Logo

S3 Stuck on Samsung Logo
Hey guys, i was using a custom ROM and i flashed the stock ROM with odin but my phone got stuck on Samsung logo. Then i remembered i forgot to enable USB debugging. Could it because of that? and my volume buttons are not working so i cant go into download or recovery mode and o tried using adb, device not found. Im thinking about going into download mode with an USB jig and flash the stock ROM with odin again. Do you think it will work? Thanks*

similar thing happened to me but my aim was to install back to n00t kitkat 4.4.4
you could try flash it again if it doesnt work you could get twrp and flash a custom rom (if you want to) that saved my s3 from getting stuck on samsung logo

you need to get your phone in downloading mode so first of all turn off your phone and then
press HOME + VOL DOWN + POWER BUTTON HOLD IT then you will see something about customroms and some other text in green. now plug in your phone and Odin Should recognise it, then you can flash twrp on it (.tar format)
To get twrp just search "twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar " (without quotes) and then you should find some results.
How to flash TWRP
once twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar is downloaded go on odin and click PDA and navigate to twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar and click start and your all done
How to get into Recovery
HOME + VOL UP + POWER BUTTON HOLD IT FOR 2 SECONDS
