Hello,
I need your help, please. Indeed, I tried my T959 using rooter odin3, the process starts going good, but a step T959 screen displays red. and rest stops like this, then I noticed step: factory ..
and now when I turn on, it displays a black screen. and when I try the combination of buttons (vol up / down and power up and power or flight) it displays a black screen and it will switch off, he continues like that.
I tried all the methods on the forum but with no result
help me please

i got the same problem,please help me......................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Make sure your phone is off.
If you have stock bootloaders hold volume up and volume down while plugging in your usb cord. If you guys have gingerbread bootloaders hold volume up and press the power button. If those don't work you might need to try a usb jig, www.mobiletechvideos.com sells them for around $5. There are youtube videos showing how to make a usb jig yourself for a couple bucks if you would rather do that.
Ps: this thread is super old. Just search next time, there are plenty of other threads covering this.

to all facing those odin problems restart your computer and use the usb ports in the back of your computer if you are using those then try a different port ... take the battery out of your phone take the sim card out and micro sd out let sit for 5 min then plug the wire back to the phone without anything no sim/sd or battery then while holding your phone hold both vol up and down buttons then put your battery back in and should be in download mode lemme know good luck :thumbs up: MAKE SURE YOU REPARTION!! and have the right odin files need help PM me

I was putting the new update on and Odin was doing its thing. it went black now I got the stupid screen of a phone pic a yellow triangle and a computer. I know my phone is hardware locked what can I do? I rooted it with the one click root but no rom was installed.
Do you have adb running? You do know there was a fix for hardware locked vibrants, right?
If you have adb running & your phone can be seen by your pc it might be possible to get the sbl file pushed in to flash. Not sure it would work this way but it might be worth a shot. Not to sure what commands you would need either.

I did search and search on hardware locked and bricked phones. My first post was about all I see is the phone, yellow triangle and the computer icons. I pulled the battery hold the volume up and down both put the battery in plugged in the usb cord and It goes right to the symbols of the phone, yellow triangle and the computer. Odin does not see my phone sorry but I have studied for hours how to root and do several things to my vibrant by myself. This has me stumped and looking for help.

Nothing. The 3-button fix should have been applied prior to flashing anything! You need a new phone, unless somehow, magically, after searching these forums and trying the (at least) 20+ ways people claim to get into download mode work.
None have worked on mine.
im not asking if ODIN can see your phone. I was asking if ADB sees your phone...
Do you have ADB setup? if so, what happens when you type:
adb remount
If you do have adb setup and nothing happens then you are in the same boat as southplatte.
get the samsung captivate back to download mode
I have similar problem like that. When i use Odin3 one click flash the ROM. It stuck in the middle of flash. I take off the usb cable out ,try to reboot the phone. Oop .. the screen show the sign of the phone--- yellow triangle with exclamation sign in the middle---computer icon. Can do nothing with it, because the computer now can not connect with the phone.
In my case, I take the USB off the phone but still connect with the computer. Hold the volume button + power until the phone flash in black screen .This moment happen very quick ,it will go back to the unconnected sign again. When the screen turn black just release power button but still press volume button (otherwise it not working) hook the USB back in your phone right on that moment. The Phone go back to download mode. If not work try couple time ,important is timing right on the moment the flash to black screen .
Now ,you can use the odin3 flash the ROM again. It works for me ,and i try again same situation couple times. it really works.
hopefully, this will help for who got the same problem.

Same issue...
Galaxy S 4g Tmobile - tried pulling all cards and battery and 3-button trick but to no avail. Never enters downloading mode. How can I tell if I'm fully bricked?
Dharra, youre in the wrong forum altogether
OP, try a jig. If that doesnt get you into download.mode, listen very carefully: youre ****ed.
Your only remaining options will be to send it to someone with a riff box (pm connexions2005 or go to mobiletechvideos.com) or do the unbrickable mod and run the unbricking app.
If you do fix your phone, do the hw lock fix right ****ing away!!

hello,
need help,
i also have display on my screen (cellphone)...(!)...(PC).
i tried the battery pull and plug in the usb and holding the vol- vol + buttons. still get the same thing. i also tried the holding the all 3 buttons (power) untill the screen went blank then release and plugged in the usb. no change.
i do get a chime on my windows xp that usb is connected but nothing shows up
also odin does shoes connected (comm XXX) but every time i try to re flash it just sits there on the "initialization"
what can i do?
What bootloader do you have? If GB press vol down and power together then plug in USB.
So i rooted the phone and installed froyo rom with clockworkmod recovery or whatever.. the phone was working fine but then i downloaded OCLF and clicked unroot the phone like an idiot. Still worked fine thoughh... i wanted to reroot the phone but then realized i couldnt get into recovery.. so i did a factory reset and now im stuck on a boot screen that says galaxy s gti 9000 and on the bottom it says samsung..
Just ODIN back to stock... and continue to do whatever you want from there...

As long as you can get into download mode, your phone is not totally bricked. Vibrants are very very hard to brick. Trust me, I have messed mine up more times than I can count,but managed to fix it. First off, can u tell me what windows version ur using, do u have the Samsung drivers installed, what button combination have u tried to get into download mode. I know you probably tried a ton, bit this will help me narrow down what will and will not work for you.

Have Odin open and everything setup on the PC.
Then just take out the battery and make sure your phone isn't connected to the PC yet. Then wait maybe 5 seconds and plug your phone into the USB without the battery in the phone. Then press both volume buttons only and install the battery while holding both volume buttons.

Pull the sd card, battery and sim card. push the power button a couple times. plug in usb cable. hold volume up+down then put the battery in. that should get you into download mode. you then can restore it with odin
didnt work, still no power, no picture, no vibration
How are you trying to get into download mode?
that happened to me too. i was using odin then the phone shutdown and nver turned back on. u might wanna call tmobile if you have insurance on your phone and tell them to send u a new one.

You can't give up that quick. Come on man. Took me over 30 minutes one time to get in download mode. Tried different techniques. Try restarting your pc or maybe even a different odin version. Make sure odin is on before trying to get in downloade mode. Best way for me to get in d/l mode is to press both vol. up and down at the same time and then plug usb in. Other techniques are out their also.

Thanks everyone for the help, my phone is working again!!!
Definitely the wrong section. Here's a couple tips/ideas though. The easiest way to manually get to Download mode it to:
1. Pop the battery, wait a sec, pop it back it.
2. May be easier to leave the battery cover off, we'll get back to this.
3. Make sure your computer is powered on, and the USB cord is plugged into the computer.
4. Without pressing the power button, hold down, volume up and volume down at the same time (this may be easier without the battery cover. This takes a firm grip sometimes, if this fails that's what you did wrong.
5. Still without pressing the power button, plug the other end of your USB cord into the phone. It should boot up into Download mode in a matter of seconds. If not, try again, you probably weren't holding the volume buttons properly.
Also, possible reason it stopped, did you put the .tar into PHONE instead of PDA? That will cause it to error midway like what you described. Otherwise I would definitely re-download/install your USB drivers with the one from this site, I find they work better. Also re-download the .tar .pit and even Odin for good measure. Check out the Vibrant Bible, that thread is your friend. Good luck, hope that helps!
EDIT: Guess I was too slow haha. Gratz man.
Best way is to use usb jig.

not sure if this is true but i read somewhere on xda that samsung will replace your phone up to three times if you really do brick your phone it will not turn on or load download mode or recovery.

Which firmware (kernel only or complete)? Link?
Which OS were you from before odin up the KA7?
I ran into similar problem. I was from Stock Froyo Kies, then odin over the supercurio stock+kernel KA7. It got black screen ...for a good 5-10 min. I was going to pull out battery but I heard some mumble jumble in the background telling me that it's converting (voodoo ext4) so I left it alone. If you pulled out too early during the conversion before it finish doing voodoo...I'm not sure what happened to that unless your odin KA7 does not have odin. Do you see any light, sound, or splash screen at all?
When you flash, did you have "repartition" checked or not?
Anyway, have you try the 2 button download mode? Mine was silent dead black screen too at one point from last few days with few variation difference caused by different tinkering mistakes. I just took off battery, sim, sd and kill odin. Reput them all back and fire up odin. Hold down both the + and - with 2 fingers, then hook in USB from pc to phone. It should put it to download mode and you can reodin whatever...depends what it can do.
same situation here.
i came from T959UVJFD then i flashed T959UVKA7 (.tar.md5 file from samfirmware.com) using odin3 v1.70
odin says it was finished. but it doesnt turn on anymore. i cannot even go to download mode.
PLEASE HELP!
any kind of button combo doest work
try downloading odin3v 1.85 and using this method to put in to download mode
1. pull the battery,
2. put it back in;
3. then, with the phone still off, plug your usb into the computer,
4. turn on odin3,
5. hold the center of the volume buttons,
6. plug the usb to the phone while holding the volume botton

I was "downgrading" from ICS Passion with GB bootloader, down to stock. The "downgrade" to 2.1 worked fine. Then I used Kies to upgrade to Froyo, and after the install it shutdown, and now the phone doesn't respond to any key. Tried a different battery as well, to eliminate a probably battery issue. No good.
Tried different combos to get to recover/download modes: Vol UP + Power, Vol Down + Power, Vol Up+Vol Down+Power, and Insert Cable+ Vol UP+Vol Down - nothing yet. Used ODIN 1.85 with suggestion from canyon789, and that didn't work either.
Any ideas? Please help.

If your willing to wait the approx. week, call up Samsung tell them that you were updating through Kies and then your phone would no longer turn on, you've tried different batteries and tried different cables and still nothing, she/he will try to help you get into recovery mode, just go along with it, she will then help you get everything you need to send it to Samsung's nearest repair center. Sent mine in last thursday, they replaced the PBA (logic board) and are sending it now. Should be here in 2 days :]

his is not going to help at all, you damage the bootloader you as happened to me, but in my case it did ODIN, Mini Kies did.
The only thing you can try and see if you have some success is to do two things:
* Easy way: pay for you to get a JTAG on the phone and reinstall the bootloader. (Actually that's what you Damage to flash it)
* Terse: Vibrant Unbrickable do MOD
(but must be done by someone who is skilled in welding and electronics, as this takes a lot of risk, as is jumping two pins that control the processor of the phone)

If Mini Kies damaged your phone, call Samsung, tell them that you upgraded with Mini Kies and now it won't turn on and they replace it for free.

See if you can use ODIN anyways, if you have the new boot loader it should work.
Otherwise try taking everything out (sim, sd) and try again
What I do when this happens to me is, hold all.3 buttons Volume up/down and power until the pc to computer symbol pops up for the 2nd time then plug in the USB into the phone and it works for me every time. You will not see the download symbol just the phone to PC one but the com port should show up and your good to go.
