You need to flash eugenes no brick file first then flash the stock rom tar and pit file.

You flashed wrong kernel.
EDIT: I made it short above just to let you know im trying to help. You flashed a kernel for GT-i9000, the international model, not SGH-T959, our Vibrants. Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728929 and download USB driver for your PC. Then go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821625 and download Odin v1.7. And go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=870480 and download one of Odin flashable .tar Voodoo kernels, KA6, KA7 or KB1 preferably. Try match it with your ROM just to be safe.
Install the USB driver. Then extract Odin3 v.1.7.rar and run the executable. Leave Odin open. Turn off your phone by pulling out battery, plug USB cord to your phone and to your PC, press and hold volume up and down buttons, and insert battery. You should be in Download mode, and Odin will recognize your phone and display a COM#. Now click on PDA button and select the .tar file you downloaded earlier. And press Start button and wait untill everything is finished and your phone reboots.
The initial boot may take a bit as Voodoo will convert your filesystem into ext4. You will hear voice telling you what's going on. And you should be good to go.
Just in case above instruction doesn't work (I personally never flashed an i9000 kernel), try reverting everything back to stock. Doing so will require a couple of additional files.
Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475 and download JFD Odin Image and 512 PIT file. Extract PIT file first. Then launch Odin, put your phone into Download mode, and in Odin press PIT button and select the 512 PIT file you just downloaded. And press PDA button and select JFD .tar file. This time make sure Re-Partition option is selected. And press Start. This take a bit longer than just flashing a kernel, but no longer than 5 minutes. Once you're back to stock (original released in July 2010), flash any other ROM of your choice.

I did the exact same thing just a few days ago. I asked on this forum and got some great help. I downloaded the new Odin Software v1.3 and also downloaded the stock Vibrant software. Put them all on your computer,extracted, and hold down just the 2 volume keys then plug in your usb cable. This will put you into download mode. Look in the Odin program and it should recognize your phone, if it doesnt then youll have to download the drivers again. Its in the Vibrant Bible. After all of that upload the Rom to the pda section in Odin and make sure you dont click anything else then push start. This will take a few minutes to load then your phone will reboot and your back to stock. This worked for me hope it works for you.
Thanks everybody, I used Baywolf's, hope his name is spelled correctly, Vibrant toolbox and got into Odin and reflashed my phone back to 2.1 stock, them Samsung Kies to 2.2 stock. Thanks for the replies
im having the same problem except that when i reflash my phone to stock and try to turn on my phone again it wont...i have to reflash it everythime i want to turn it on and it deletes everything everything
To all vibrant devs here,
i make a new thread so i can find a clue to my vibrant which is getting stuck in recovery mode <3e>. i searched for all stuck in recovery mode thread, but it seems i can't find any clue there.
here is the situation:
i have a t-mobile vibrant in t959uvkb1 baseband, was using bionix 1.3.1 rom, and overstock kernel.
i updated the kernel accidentally to cwm7 kernel (cwm v3.0.2), then my vibrant went in bootloop. i couldn't even get back to bionix and overstock.
i was using odin to flash the vibrant back to stock (t959uvjfd.tar), and somehow i didn't uncheck the re-partition, so it became totally blank.
then i found t959uvkb1.tar in this vibrant forum, i flashed it again with odin, and now my vibrant get stuck in recovery mode <3e>
i see there are 5 choices only:
reboot system now
reinstall packages
delete all user data
delete cache data
format internal sd-car
everytime i reboot, it come to this recovery mode again
i try to reinstall packages, it says E: failed to open /mnt/internal_sd/update.zip (no such file or directory).
i have bionix 1.3.1 rom and overstock kernel files stored in internal sd-card though.
my question is:
which rom is suitable with this recovery mode?
is there any way that i can downgrade to 2e?
need help from anyone.
thanks in advance.
update:
i managed to find eugene's froyo that doesn't brick file (t959uvjk2).
i used the file with odin, and i have my vibrant back to normal.
just curious, the baseband was t959uvkb1, and now it's jk2.
thanks to xda forum.
update 2:
everytime i reboot the device, flight mode always activated. i have to deactivate flight mode in order to get the signal.
i tried to flash the device back to t959uvkb1 and use odin to flash, my baseband goes unknown.
what should i do?
i need help desperately.
thanks.
no one answered yet??
need help desperately.
Might try Odin flashing all the way down to JFD? If you have a pit file and a full image (like JFD), repartitioning shouldn't be a problem. I always do it when flashing down to stock. Edit: Do be careful though!

@inconceeeivable,
thanks for the reply.
i've done flashing this vibrant so many times, with jfd, kb1, jk2, again and again.
everytime i flash it with jfd, it always stuck in vibrant logo.
when i try to flash it with eugene's froyo that does not brick (jk2), the baseband is there. but everytime i reboot the device, the baseband become unknown again.
i am confused now.
it's just the same when i updated the device with bionix 1.3.1, that changed my baseband to t959uvkb1.
do you know what i should do next?
That's strange that JFD is not working.
So wait... the baseband is disappearing with Bionix as well?
Have you tried flashing a modem on top of either of those?

Ok, so idk if im screwed here but i had installed crappy cm7 which ended up with fc all the time so i decided to try to odin back to stock but when i did i odined to ji6 instead of jfd which is the one i walways do , when it rebooted it just took me to stock recovery and i already had the cwmod recovery update.zip so i just flashed it and thought i would flash cm7 again. Point is I cant get into download mode or back to stock recovery and my phone doesnt boot. All i can do is go to cwmod recovery and thats it. I would like to try to adb to download mode but i have no idea how to work adb or cmd . PLEASE HELP?
Which steps do you use to go to dl mode?

so im new here in the forums just trying to learn everything and i flashed this file : Voodoo-lagfix-3.0-SGH-T959-update and now im stuck in the system recovery mode .. i have tried oneclick unbrick and it didnt work .. please help !
were you able to access
custom recovery before? Can you re install packages to get to cwm? have you set up Odin on your PC.
Try the "Eugene froyo that does not brick" to clear all and revert back to jfd. Then flash a ROM with voodoo built in.

Here's my story about 5 months ago I root and flash to new rom I believe it was bionix-v-tw-voodoo because I got tired of it, I tired to flash a new rom however, whenever I tired to flash the new rom I kept getting this error message Data wipe fail Then I tired to use Odin to fix it but once it get pass the Vibrant screen the phone goes black.The only thing that works it Eugenes
I tired this method but no go
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. Download the 'True stock 2.1 firmware 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!
