Take out the battery plug in the phone to a computer hold down the volume keys while putting the battery back in if you've done this correctly you'll get a screen with an android holding a shovel that's download mode you'll know cause it will say download try it a couple times if you don't get it at first if you can't get into that screen your phone is hardware locked and we can go from there do you know anything about using odin?

Eugenes Froyo That Doesn't Brick (Odin)

if you do decide to use odin, make sure and at least try to disable voodoo beforehand. (It saves alot of trouble, it is however; possible to use odin without doing this, using froyo that doesen't brick... but I would not recommend it unless its your absolute last resort.)
I would try simply disableing voodoo and see if that fixes it.
welll gonna make a jig to get to download mode will i need any thing else besides odin to flash froyo that doesnt brick to the vibrant
hey well tried to remove voodooo and kind of bricked the phone got to dl mode them odin back to stock but phone goes blank afterthe samsung music and soft keys light up
finally got it. using eugenes froyo worked for me! thanks for the help
ok so i know how to do things on my vibrant but dont really know exactly how the phone does things (basically im a directions follower) so im going to try to be as precise as possible
my phone has been rooted for a while and ive been experimenting with a bunch of roms. i decided to flash TWs nero v3 w/voodoo and i was pretty sure id stick with that for a while but some of my games started having issues so i decided to flash the newest axura. now something told me that i needed to disable voodoo first and there is usually a voodoo submenu in CW recovery but there wasnt so i figured it was disabled already
so i flashed it and everything was going well untill my screen went blank
now my phone acts like there is no battery in it
ive tried any button combinations with charger in (wall or computer) or out.
no matter what my screen stays blank...plz help
im not exactly in a situation to just buy a new phone.
Unplug the phone from the charger. take your battery out for at least 15 seconds. plug the phone to your computer via usb. while holding both vol+/-, not power, put the battery back in. you should be in download mode.
use odin to flash a stock rom.
this all should work if you have the samsung drivers installed on your comp.
Go to this link it should help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848737&highlight=bricked+phone
btw i followed what both above said and neither worked for me =/
thanx for ur suggestions though
Ive seen alot of these post lately and all were on nerov3 .

Well I guess that your best bet would be modifying the usb charger with resistors. as stated in the link that jewbrad suggested. A similar thing happened to my phone when I tried to go back to stock from nero, but instead of a blank screen, I got a small icon of a pc and phone with a triangle in between. The method that I posted did the trick. Maybe you should try it again and check odin to see if it recognizes your device, even if the phone might look like its off.

Have you tried having odin open on you pc and loaded with eugene's froyo that doesnt brick then with your phone turned off(pull the battery then put it back in) now hold the volume keys up and down at the same time then plug your usb cord that is plugged into your pc into your phone this should get you into downlod mode. If this workes flash it and let odin do its thing after its done running it will reboot and go to a recovery screen then it will try to boot up ounce you see the i9000 screen you can pull the battery again and get it back into download mode the same way you did before and then flash the stock vibrant rom tar file and pit. I dont know if this will work but it cant hurt I know how it is not having your phone working so hope this helps
Same thing happend to me.
Please let me know if you get it fixed.
I was on Nero V3 trying to reflash because GPS didn't work well.
i got in to boot loop so i tried to get back to stock and re-do it,
and this happened.
I took it tmobile and claimed the ota broke it..they sent me a new one
NVM!! link posted by jewbrad had No-Boot phone instruction, and it worked!!!
Oh lucky...I tried that n it failed
i accidentally flashed the dead horse kernal without disabling voodoo. lost all internal memory . now im factory wiped and when i go to download anything it says "sorry, theres not enough space to install this item" any help on how to correct this would be greatly appreciated
clockwork recovery -> disable voodoo to turn voodoo off . on the other hand factory data reset , and last one u didnt press repartition in while in recovery if not ,dont ever just for reference ;p
I have a similar but maybe worse situation . I flashed the same kernel (because I was not aware it was in the ROM nor aware of its effects) I posted that it erased my SD card and someone replied telling me to ODIN back a stock voodoo kernal which I. While booting i heard the voice that tells me about the re-partitioning going on. I think the last one i heard was it trying to mess with the system partition. It sat there for over 25 minutes doing nothing. I gave up on that. Now I cannot flash ANYTHING. I have tried flashing things from Clockwork but it all errors out because of the partitions not being there i assume. I tried using ODIN to flash back a stock rom and that doesn't work either, the phone just reboots and sits at the Vibrant screen forever. PLEASE HELP.
that did the trick thanks a lot!!!!!!!!
Edited .....ahh if you need hyelp i can help you convert your to conver your internal sd back to fat32 because u converted in to ext4 thats why u soft bricked your phone . Tsk tsk
I soft bricked my phone I think. I have samsung vibrant sgh-t959. I flashed a rom over voodoo and its just in a bootloop. I get into recovery and dont know what to do. I cant odin back to stock because my phone isnt in debugging mode. Is there a way to enable debugging mode or a file I can put on my sd to fix this? Please HELP!

You don't need debugging mode, you need download mode. Unplug your USB cable and take out your battery for 5-10 seconds. Put you battery back in and then while holding volume up+down, plug in your USB cable. Keep holding vol up+down until you see the yellow triangle with digger android. Now you are in Download Mode and you can use Odin to flash back to stock JFD.

Its hard to say what the possible cause could be, it could range anywhere to bad file downloads for what you were using to unbrick ( I assume you were using odin) all the way to hardware failure. I personally have never had that problem but if for whatever reason you aren't able to get your phone working again complain to samsung as it was their software that messed up your phone.

This method will get you back to stock. IF you want to update through minikies, then you will probably have to update to Ji6 first after doing this But this will resolve your problems
1. Download Eugenes 'Froyo that does not brick' file.
2. Extract the files.
3. Open Odin, plug in your phone, then put it into download mode.
4. load the PIT file in appropriate area.
5. load the .tar file in the PDA area.
6. DO NOT check 're-partition'.
7. Click start, let it finish. Your phone will load and reboot into stock recovery. It will error out again. DONT panic! This is what's supposed to happen.
8. Now, pull your battery.
9. Load the JFD rom for the vibrant'.
10. Extract the files.
11. Once again, open Odin, plug in your phone, put into download mode.
12. Load the PIT file into the appropriate area and the .tar in the PDA area.
13. THIS TIME you want to check the 're-partition' box.
14. Now click start, let it finish, and this time your phone will load up just fine!
15. Then, root the phone and you can flash your new Rom.
doing this method will get everything back to normal and the phone will work just like it did right out of the box
also i would like to add that i have been trying odin i havent got any sleep at all trying to fix this phone ODIN SUX and im a bit upset that ive tried this over and over and it does work..
it wants me to get into usb debugging mode how do i do that if i cant get the phone to cut on?/
sigh now i got red text and the phone wont go into download mode again can anyone please help mee??/
Also, you will need to pull the sim and the sd card 1st before Odin back as long as Odin recognizes the phone you are ok, if Odin gives you problems you may want to try heimdall it works the same but sometimes just using a different program helps.

hold vol up and power only from a powered off state. this should bring you to a screen with red-orange writting. from there hold down vol up\down and power and that should bring you to dl mode. from there you need to use eugenes froyo that doesnt brick.
ive tried that already idk if i have the right eugenes froyo file but i got the phone to turn on and it does exactly what i told u guys it boots up and everything is ok except usb mode and my computer doesnt recognize it at all then once i turn the phone off it doesnt come back on unless i try the unbricking method all over again
it also whipes everything i had saved away.. Can someoen pls assist me with this?
i called samsung they offered to fix it because i have a warranty but there has to be a way to fix this at home i need my phone now to be honest. samsung will take forever to fix this and ship back..

Hello, please help me.
I just purchased a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant this after noon. I used to have a motorola milestone, but it has a stubborn physical damage, and died. That milestone, really, kept my life together. With all the rich apps. Then, like I said, this after noon I bought a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant.
At first, I successfully rooted it, then I successfully unlocked it too. Then, I must have made a huge mistake, and then it moved to a continuous boot.
I have spent hours and hours now trying to figure out how to save my 2 hour baby.
Right now, it is continuously loading the boot screen on and off. The odd thing is, when it is plugged into with a USB, the picture changes to a spinny wheel which also repeats continuously).
Can anyone help me?
PS. I can not go into download mode, or recovery as my device, apparently, is hardware locked.

Stupidly, I believed I Odin-ed a file named "T959UVJI6.rar". Which if I remember right, is a custom kernel. I never really understood the whole kernel ordeal. I used to have a motorola milestone, which, I would do all all sorts of things to with no problem. But, that never included kernels. And for the most part, it didn't have any hardware key lock.
I, think, I need to do the jig mod-y thingy.

I'm not sure how, because, apparently, my samsung's 3 keys are locked. I have tried so many times, but, it never works. Sadly.
Try to ODIN back to JFD.
Follow my guide (signature) and use my files.
To get into odin:
load odin, load the pit and tar (don't check anything, it does it automatically)
connect usb to pc
power down phone and pull battery
plug in usb to phone
hold in both volume buttons (keep holding) and plug in battery
if it show download mode after 5 seconds, and odin shows a COM# (yellow box) click start on ODIN
wait for the phone to finish... you will then have a stock JFD and you can start over.

Umm. At this point, with all my searching, I think I am missing something (mentally). Like I said, the 3 button combination never works. I have tried every combination I could possibly think of, every technique I saw, and held for every possible length of time; yet, I still got nothing. I believe I have one of those phones that are locked in that area. As I read, newer Samsung galaxy models are becoming locked.
That being said, I think mine is one of those.
Sadly.
Anyways, same as any of the 1 thousand attempts, when I (again) did those exact steps, my screen just continuously flashed a non-spinning spinney wheel.
Yours is a simple dilemma, complicated by the hardware lock... idk how but i remember there Was a thread about unlocking it.. just look for it, i think it wus in the general section

The easiest way I've found to get into download mode is to do this:
Take out the battery.
Hold down only the volume down button.
Plug in the USB cable.
That should put you into download mode automatically.

Yes, I have, actually. I found it really hard though. Mainly because the wires were way too small. But, the reason I gave up, is because the resistor is larger then the wire, and so, needed very precise soldering. I could've used the back, but, all usbs are different; and the ones i had, were very much different then all the demonstrations videos i watched.
PS I am actually buying a stick online.

Yeah, but from what I remember, that software, just forced the samsung into download or recovery mode. From there, then the person would just mod a file to change that. But, my phone wont even do as the force says.... in the first place... It has always, just stayed in the continuous boot phase...

Did you perhaps flash Gingerbread Bootloaders? If you did then the combo to get into Download Mode is Vol up and power. Try that?
Mine sometimes takes a few goes. What usually works on Froyo Bootloaders is to take out battery, unplug phone, hold down vol up and down with my thumb, plug in then put in battery.... usually results in DL mode.
Goodluck!

I wish there was a physical jig seller in Vancouver (where I live).
The button combos don't work on my phone. Sadly. It was the newly made models with the button combo block.
If it helps, before, when I could go into that option, I did it by using a toolkit and making it put me to recovery/download mode.
UPDATE! I had someone help me fix it, but he failed too. It now just hangs on the boot show thingy. (rather then flashing). Oddly, my cell can still access the computer, which I think is a good thing. As in, when I plug it while the screen stays put, my computers makes a sound. What could this mean? CMD to download mode?
As for boot loader, I highly doubt it. Since, I have had no reason to look-up what they are. ehhe.
So it's on a screen with a big yellow triangle or little cell/triangle/computer? If so, AWESOME!
Once in that mode, start Odin on the pc, then plug in... Do you get a yellow COM with some numbers show up? If so, load up the JFD tar in the pda section, the 512 pit in the pit section, repartition, and hit start... If that doesn't work... Maybe try Eugene's froyo that will not brick?
If someone got you into dl mode, sounds like you may not be hardware locked after all?
------
If the computer sees it you could also try adb to get to download mode. I'm not experienced with the program, but I believe you can get into download mode with it with only a few command lines.
Which Odin are you using? Sometimes v3 and v7 play differently with my phone.... Try the other?

Nononon, it is stuck on the galaxy text boot screen thingy. In other words, just like before, but this time it isnt flashing continuously. If it was the big yellow thingy, oh thank god... i wish.
As for that someone putting me in hardware lock, from my understanding, the only way to unbrick a locked device is through a jig. That being said, I searched up where I live for anyone with a jig, and to my luck, only one group had it. So I went there, and bam, it can now somewhat access the computer.
NOTE: I am going to receive a built jig in the mail in a few days.
From what I know, having a locked device, means, a jig is a must.
As for ADB, I am looking all over for instructions how to use that, but, I can't really find any through ones.
I'm not sure if it is a bad thing, but I used Odin Mullti downloader V.4 and EZOdin.
I am really unfamiler with this samsung galaxy.
I did everything possible with ,y Motorola Milestone.
Awoooooo!!!! BAYWOLF's program Rules
Look Guys!! Here's the easiest method for him, W/O him f--king it up any more! And he can get his phone up and running immediately, W/O the Jig, ETC!!
IDK why this program is SO overlooked, and everybody, always advises to do the long redundant method, this program has saved me alot of soft bricks, plus easy restore to JFD

Also make sure you DL and Install MS .NET Framework 4 Link: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=17851
Then download it, ODINS inside the program already, its as easy as it gets, U cant f--k up, unless your an idiot! Just follow the instructions to the "T" it will automatically put you in DL mode and will provide the two files you need to restore your T-959 to stock Eclair JFD from there you can start to re-MOD, although I suggest you start reading everything first about modding and flashing first, including building a DL folder to stash everything you may need to fall upon for the future plus what you'll need once you've mapped out a plan to Mod your phone with whatever ROM, themes Kernel's, ETC!!!

Ahha, thank you for the suggestion, but, that wont do. It was my original fix, towards getting into recovery/download mode. But, for some sad reason, it doesn't work for bricked devices. In simple, it just says device is not find. Ironicly, the computer makes a sound with the cell is plugged in, but, thats about it apparently.
Oh yes, the cell has to have USB debugging activated. But, since I have a bricked, it can't go within the phone to find it.
NOTE: it has always been in debugging mode.
