Help i hardbricked my s3 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry if i posted this in the wrong Forum or if it was answered already (im new here )
I just rooted and i flashed the wrong custom recovery causing a hard brick on my s3. Odin mode , download mode, charging, powering on , DONT WORK
I just need to get this thing in download mode and ill be Good
EDIT:I found a solution (i think) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2369125
But i dont have a linux is it possible to do this on a mac since the terminal of mac and linux are very alike. If so, can someone rephrase the steps using a mac instead of linux.

Questions go in the q&a forum. Report your own post and ask a moderator to move it for you.
Usb jig might restore download mode, but the touch screen is usually destroyed.

stuck on the first screen after wrong installation, how to go back..

i Everyone,
Thanks a lot for all this informations. This website is very well done.
Here is my issue, I got a SG SII l9100G updated to the latest version with Kies.
I rooted it, and install the clockword mode.
I wanted to install a Ressurection Remix so I put it into the memory of the phone and run it via the clockword mode. I didn’t realize I had to have the l9100 and not the G version for the ressurectionRemix so now it is stuck on the Samsung first page, I cannot access to the phone anymore, only the Download mode (pressing the down volume button and the others) and ClockWord Mode (pressing the up volume button and the others).
I have downloaded SuperROM_v3.0 and put it on the external SD but it keep on failing when I’m trying to install (,, so maybe because it’s on the external sd card and not in the phone but I don-t have access to the phone via my computer anymore, itdoesn-t detect it) y phone is really useless now.
Is there anyone that could help me with that ?
Sorry for asking and thank you for reading .
PS : I couldn't find the Q&A thread for the G version that's why I post here, but tell me where you want me to do so otherwise.

Yes it is, however people like yourself spoil it by posting random crap in random places.
This is not a help section for newbies to post topics, This is a dev forum where releases and reference is posted.
You want to create topics, do it in the general or questions forum.
You are in luck that you can get download mode.

[Q] graghic problem p7500

hi guys
i have very very big problem so cant do anything now!!
first week when i bought tab 10.1(3g+ wifi) , i get root with this
warning : don't use this any way : warning
this way very easy : without any change copy this to tab & let it from recovery mode
everything goes very well until i Decide to install cmw , busybox
in this time's so tab let graphic problem
of course with install a rom (P7500JPKL2_P7500OJPLB1_P7500XXKL3_HOME.tar.md5)
only graphic problem resolve
since yesterday i decided to change everything
told me :install stock rom & install cmw , reroot , busybox & ...
go stock rom (P7500OXAKI1_P7500XXKI1_P7500XXKI1_HOME.tar.md5)
after install this everything was bad
now i have graphic problem in boot , download mode , recovery ,... every where
of course i can install rom hard (with problem can sense where are you)
but with both of rom not changed
i realize problem is rooted then to make change with change the rom
it seems the problem is software
how can re wright everything as first (boot loader , rom , ...)
please help me
sorry fo bad english
regards.
I can hardly understand that... But if you want to go stock go to SamMobile.com and go to the firmware section.. Once there use the search option and look for p7500, choose a stock Rom from the list and download..
Once done, install Kies to get the drivers, with drivers installed put the tablet in Odin mode (turn it off then press volume down+power) select the download mode and connect the tablet to the computer.
Once done, open Odin and don't change any option there.. Go to pda and select the file you downloaded from SamMobile and Press start..
That's it

Over in the development thread there is this... little bit over my head, but have a like at it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16058447
The only problem with that link you posted is that you'll need working Android OS, so you would still need to get your Tab up and running again. Also from what I've read in that link its not an Ubuntu os that runs natively on our Tabs. It sounds like it just uses your device as a host or something, it only boots up when your device is docked to a computer and uses its screen, keyboard and mouse.

Actually you just have to connect it on a screen with HDMI. No need for a computer. Somehow Ubuntu takes over when it detects HDMI out from the dock. It has to be a pretty decent device though. At least dual core and one gigabyte ram... Oh well, we just have to wait until canonical releases it!

I don't think he installed Ubuntu... I think he may have flashed the wrong rom with a different bootloader... But ya OP I'm having a hard time understanding exactly what you need and how we can go about helping you more...
Can you link us to the files you used to root and any thing you flashed to your Tab?

1.- press power + volume down until the tablet turns on into bootloader and move to downloading with volume down... Once you are in downloading press volume up and you will be in Odin mode. (look at reference image at bottom)
2.-download samsung Kies here and install to get the drivers
3.-download samsung stock rom here search for P7500 and get a rom according to your country/region once downloaded unzip it
4.-get Odin here
5.-connect your tablet to pc (check your usb wire its good and use a back motherboard usb port) , open Odin and Press PDA, in PDA put the file you downloaded from sammobile and unziped then Press start (do not change any Odin's options from the check boxes)
6.-wait until process finish and then you are back to stock close Odin and by this time the tablet should be rebooting.
if you are not able to recover your tab with all this then go pay

Root SCH-R760

Hey I have a SGS2 but its a generic handset from ACG. Its similar to USCC device but my kernel is completely different than any others on the web. If I use ODIN to flash a custom Kernel in my device will it result in data loss or any other harm? I am still kind of lost as to what using ODIN to flash a custom kernel will do to my device other than put CWM and SuperUser on my device.
I would also like to know this. I also have a SCH-R760.
I actually ran through the rooting method, and the Kernel didn't touch the Radio. I didn't have LOS, and I am running Jelly Bean on my device now. You can follow the links in my signature below =]
nice, if you need the stock ever shoot me a pm, and I can get it uploaded.
If anyone is just wanting stock root, it can be found HERE.
could someone please help me asap, im an amateur tech geek and well i tried rooting my phone and i downloaded the wrong kernel and now my phones stuck in airplane mode, no hardware info or baseband info please help me ! DD:
-uscc galaxy s ii sch-r760
thankyou

If you can get it in download mode, do a one click Odin back to stock and start over. For my phone I use EL29. Usually if you can get it to Samsung screen, it is only soft bricked and fixable. Good luck!
Install the Galaxy S 2 Drivers
Driver Download
On your phone, select USB Debugging and Unknown Sources from the Settings menu.
(unknown sources located in the application tab in settings at the very top and usb debugging located in the application tab in settings in under development).
Plug your phone into your computer with the USB Cable that came with it.
Download this easy rooter tool
Epic 4G Touch Auto Fixer
Run the e4auto-sfx.exe (aka Root and download mode placer)
Press E then Enter.
Then press H then Enter on your keyboard then press any button to continue.
Your phone will now reboot into download mode. (green android guy that with a downloading bar)
Download Odin if you don't already have it
Odin Download
Download this Stock SCH-R760 File
Stock Download
Select the PDA Option on your Odin and flash it.
This will restore your device to factory default settings. From there you might need to flash your carrier files into the phone since this will restore it 100% back to factory settings.
If you have more questions I am here to help.

Hey, I have a generic sch-r760. I already managed to root but I am wanting to install a custom kernel with cwm attached. Need to get a recovery on the thing and I'm looking for ROMs as well but if I can at least get a kernel with cwm I'll be on the right path
I am sorry to be 'That guy'... But this is not the right place at all for this question.
If there is a forum for the device in question, you need to go there and ask the question. If not you need to go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=456 and ask the question there.
If a noob comes in here and does anything on there E4GT from this post, they will be very unhappy.
I have asked a MOD to move the post to avoid confusion.

Thanks, I had been trying to locate the correct spot so I keep doing searches on the model number commenting and hoping someone can help out and tell me where km suppose to be:good:
Thread moved to Android Q&A since it didn't belong in the Epic 4G Touch but doesn't seem to have its own forum.
Thanks for your understanding on this matter.

This guide works great for the SCH-R760x even though this is a US cellular site
Root Guide with CWM and no Triangle.
Team US Cellular posted some good stuff for this phone on their website. Haven't seen any mirrors on XDA yet

You have been asking many common questions asked. And you managed to install the wrong firmware? The thing you can do is to use a USB jig. If it doesn't work then many Jtag or samsung.
You really need to stop creating multiple threads. It's not your first time.
Your other thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33426283) for this issue even already has the answer you are looking for, and you even thanked the guy who linked you to the answer you were looking for. What's your issue now?
yes i know but this is another problem ... i cant seem to put it in download mode and i have search a lot of threads but none seems to be helping me
Use a USB jig. If it doesn't work, Jtag or Samsung. This question has been asked multiple times.
i know it has been asked but non of them are working with me are there any other way please i nedd some help, i have the firmware odin... but the only problem is that i cant put it in download mode

If you can't put it in download mode there is no other way. Unless you can go to CWM.

Galaxy S II Brick

Good night.
I have had very bad luck with phones, you can not imagine ... My problem is that my Galaxy SII is bricked, I can not enter into recovery mode but I can enter into download mode normally.
As you can imagine, my PC does not recognize the device so I had to install the drivers using Samsung KIES, after Odin was able to recognize my device, the thing is I tried to install several stock rom and I could not because I Odin mark "operation failed".
Below I leave a screenshot of what appears in ODIN I try to install any rom either multiple files and a single file.
I hope you can help me with my problem, greetings from Venezuela.
Same as everyone else in this situation; find Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General & go through all the troubleshooting steps in a methodical manner as many times as you need to in order to get a successful flash.
That thread is 'the bible' as it covers these situations from every possible angle. Where these are recoverable (and almost all are as long as you have download mode), they're often fixed with perseverance, so you may need to try one or more of the steps in the thread many times to get a fix.
Thanks!, but... where I can find that? I'm new to this, and believe me I have not had any luck, right now I also hurt my mini s3 not enciente or cargo or enter download mode or recovery mode.
Not interested in your other device, it has a specific forum, and you'll need to post a thread to that forum to get help with it. That's how things work around here, specific forums for specific devices as what works for one device doesn't necessarily work for another
And with regard to how to find that thread, navigate to the General section, and it's a stickied thread which means it's on the first page.
If you want your phone fixed, it's going to take a bit of effort on your part, and using menus to navigate to different parts of the site is something you're going to have to do (we have stickied threads so we don't have to constantly repost common stuff). Go to the root of Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 & it will list the different sections, you'll see the General section listed there.
