Try this
1) pull battery
2) put in battery
3) hold up and down volume buttons
4)while holding volume buttons plug in phone and then quickly press the home and menu buttons really fast

Does anything happen when you plug it to charger? Probably not, I think you've a brick between your hands. A JIG could well save it's Vibrant soul or be a wasted 10$.
Worth the risk IMO.

ya so i tried the jig and no good. didnt work. is there any other options? or is it FUBAR

so i called samsung and its gonna get repaired for free. ive def learned my lesson

after following the steps mine gets to the Downloading screen but its just sitting on that screen. how long should i wait for something to happen? Im new to the vibrant, coming from a nexus.

If you can get into the Downloading screen, then just Odin back to stock and go from there
Read up on how to in the bible by S15274N it is in the general section

At least its getting repaired for free I had the same thing happened but somehow after, I left odin on with the phone connected over night the downloaf mode came on
I use swype so expect bad grammar and errors

To help clarify what happened to you and others that experienced this problem, you have a corrupt bootloader not allowing the phone to initialize it's hardware correctly and power on. I can however fix this with JTAG if needed. Just PM me if you have any questions. I'm glad you got a resolution though!

[Q] Cant enter recovery mode or download mode!!!

Dont know if this is the right section but does anyone have any idea on what i can do? my phone cant get into recovery or download mode after flashing a rom. it just remains on the screen that says Vibrant and Samsung... no, it didnt have a lagfix so no voodoo was enabled....help please!! thank ya
Not the right section but...
Battery pull your phone then put it back
Plug in the USB
Hold both volume buttons down
THen press power button (while still holding volume up&down)
The screen should pop up with something (vibrant, phone!computer, etc)
Once that happens, let go of the power button (BUT NOT THE VOLUME!)
should get into download mode
Yea, i tried all of the little button combinations to get to either recovery or download..... nothin happened! im not new to this so i know about how to actually get there but its just not doing it now.....thanks anyway though!

this is the easiest method out there and should be sticked.
it doesnt matter if its connected to a wallcharger or pc, it will work no matter what.
works for me EVERY time.
I had the same issue yesterday after an ODIN flash failed. On the CM forum, I believe, was instructions, linked in the Vibrant Bible.
1. Pull SD and SIM
2. Plug USB to phone
3. Plug USB to PC
4. insert batter and wait for the icon to come up showing that your battery is charging
5. Hold Vol UP and DOWN, press power, hold power ONLY until the screen goes black, then release.
6. Continue to hold Vol Up and Down.
This SHOULD bring you into Download mode so you can connect ODIN again. Worked for me after a few tries. Don't give up, keep trying (Even though you want to either whack your forehead or throw the phone)
Another way I have seen it listed is to do all of the above until the inset battery part, and skip the waiting to see the battery charging icon. Hold the buttons with the USB connected, then insert the battery with the buttons pressed.
Hope that helps you out, as I know how frustrating it can be to have a soft brick on your hands.

agreed, best method ever!!!! just pretty much turned my day around lol.

I think I have a TRUE hard brick.

I can't even turn it on, nothing. No combos would do anything
ODIN was stuck for like half an hour to an hour, so i had to do a battery pull, now it won't even turn on, nothing, nada.
Anybody have had this happen before?
Did The Battery Die?
Even If You Do A Battery Pull On ODIN
Nothing Will Happen You'd Be Able To ODIN Back

While I'm not 100% sure that this wouldn't cause a brick. I know that I've pulled my battery out during an odin flash with out bricking. Plug in the charger just to make sure.

You might try to get into download like this
1. remove batt.
2.plug usb into computer
3.put batt. in
4.hold volume down+up
5. plug usb into phone.
Then try Odin again
If that doesn't work you might try building a jig:

If all else fails, there's always the homemade jig method. I haven't tried it but lots have had success.

Its a true brick if you cant get in download mode or turn it on. The jig is for people that flashed wrong firmware or pulled battery out in odin and dont have working 3 button combo but the phone does turn on. I have tried a working jig with captivate that wont turn on and no working 3 button combos and had no luck. I have bricked a few captivates with ULF kernel and bad flash's. I do not use ULF kernels any more. Did you have ULF kernel loaded before you flashed?

Not true. My phone couldn't turn on at all. The screen remained black even when plugged into usb or a charger. Removing/replacing the battery did nothing. I plugged into usb, pulled battery, and held the volume buttons while inserting the battery, BAM dl mode.

I said if download mode does not work. If you try every way to get into download mode and it does not work or turn on then you have a true brick.
Same...
I've got the same problem. The jig method won't work...it says it right in the guide. Did you get anything to work?
I'm still not convinced this is possible without actual physical damage being inflicted through faulty charger/usb cable, shock, water, or otherwise... A rogue battery pull sounds a bit far fetched to cause this kind of damage, but you never know...
Download mode is likely the answer you're looking for. Figure out a way into it.

This is 100% possible to have a hard brick. Nothing but JTAG can revive the phone in this condition. I have the ability to bring a hard bricked phone back from the dead as well as a phone in any bricked state where a JIG won't work. Just pm me if you need help...

Vibrant Boot Looping

Hi all, i am running the latest version of Bionix i went to hit the reboot option and accidentally selected the download mode button. I pulled the battery out before it fully shutdown, me being impatient. When i put the battery back in the phone immodestly turned on and tried to boot, and stays on the vibrant screen for about 2-3 seconds then shuts off and try's to boot back up again on its own. Also when plugged in it continues to boot loop, it never shows that it is charging, only the battery with the loading circle, then ****s off and repeats.
I am not new to modding, and i am not new to getting my phone into recovery or download mode. The problem is the phone does not respond to the hardware keys, and i am positive that it used to be able to reach download mode via keys, i do not have a hardware locked vibrant.
I guess my question lies in the realm of another way to reset the phone, maybe via shorting pins or something? Does anyone know of an alternate method that does not rely on keys or software to reset the phone?
Thanks in advanced!

I have been in similar circumstance. Have you tried the battery methods to get into dl mode?
Remove battery and connection to computer.
plug phone back into computer
Hold volume up and down
Insert battery while holding buttons
That should work because it will put you in dl mode before it has a chance to boot loop
You might have to have odin up and running before you do the battery pull

Please explain.
A jig is a mod'ed usb device that will basically force your vibrant into download mode. Just use the method mentioned earlier....ie
Have odin up and running.
Pull battery
plug in cable
hold vol up and down
put battery in
should get you into download mode. Sometimes it took a few tries with Odin already loaded to successfully do it, but you shouldn't have any issues.

Keep us posted, I follow your twitter so send a post if it works or doesnt, and Ill come on here and try to help you out if it doesnt. I have had similar soft brick issues so many times now it gets to a point where you just play with it till you recover.
Point being there is lots of ways to overcome this.
Hey man Ive been in a similiar situation as well.... this has been the ONLY way that has worked, not even the above mentioned methods.
Phone not plugged in at all yet. Battery pull for 10 seconds, put back in, BEFORE plugging in phone, hold volume up button (if this doesnt work try both volume buttons, sorry been out of the Vibrant for a while for my NS) while plugging phone in (still holding volume up button), hold till it throws into DL mode.
Hope that helps man!

I've tried that method, it used to work for me. This soft brick is different than any other I've encountered. The phone has never automatically tried to boot when i put the battery into it, it makes things harder. But thanks and ill give it ago again.
No such luck with the battery method, it still just boot loops. I tried at least 2 dozen times.Anyone want to tell me how to get my hands on a jig?

I think that method with the battery is just referred to as a jig by some people.
I would try the battery method with odin ready to go and without, and sometimes it takes a couple tries.
Also just try holding all the buttons while unplugged, for a long time, then on one of the boot loops as soon as you see anything flicker in the screen release the power button, then try all buttons, then just volume buttons. Sometimes playing with it like that just kinda forces it.
Does odin see it in com port? Do you have correct drivers installed to use odin? Sdk installed as well?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Also try different combos of being plugged in and not. And recovery or download mode. Recovery will be just as useful as dl mode.

A jig is THIS, it shorts out pins in the micro usb port forcing it to download mode. I am positive i have the correct drivers and the sdk installed right. This isn't the first time I've been soft bricked and i am very familiar with DL mode and Recovery, and how to reach them traditionally. This soft brick is different though for what ever reason. I am going to have to try this jig, and if that doesn't work, i think ill have to read up about the jtag pins on it, if anyone has more information on jtaging a Galaxy S please post!
Did you ever end up trying the jig? I'm having the exact same problem you were. Thanks
I hard bricked a vibrant by trying to flash a rom on a low battery. Battery died in the middle of rebooting thus killing my vibrant with no way of recovery (seriously, charged the battery and the phone still wouldn't turn on... at all). Anyway, while trying to fix it, I actually made a jig. It's a lot easier than it sounds. You basically cut the plug that goes into your phone off of the cord down to where you can see all of the wires. Once you do that you break off the plastic shell that covers the plug. You then use a 301k resistor (I couldn't find that exact one so I bought 3 x 100k resistors and a 1k resistor then twisted them together).. plug the usb side into your phone then touch the opposing ends of the resistor onto wires 4 and 5 and it should go into download mode. You don't necessarily have to solder the resistor to the wires but you can. It makes it a bit easier considering you can't touch the wire part of the resistor or the static will mess up the voltage. Otherwise, Amazon sells jigs for a few bucks.
I wanted to post the url for the site that I found useful in making a jig but because I'm a "junior user" I can't. So if you search for "usb jig" on amazon there are a few; if you want to make one google "how to unbrick samsung vibrant" there is an article on factoidz called "How to unbrick your samsung vibrant/galaxy s" which I found to be the most useful.
Hope this helps!
I bought a jig off ebay and it worked like a charm! Worth its weight in gold! I now have a working phone again after being phoneless for 5 days.
Failed to replace stock recovery now get only there.
Hi, similar situation please help.
From stock 2.1 I rooted with King root Chinese zip then to go for a new ROM I renamed a cwm zip in update.zip and I read replacing stock recovery..... and saw this cwm just a couples of times, as it revert to stock recovery and doesn't switch on anymore, show grey battery logo fixed when charging, and now after removing the battery for long it goes in stock recovery se2 , cleaned cache and data but nothing change.
Is there please a solution without PC?

Im sorry for your loss I really am, if their was a smilee shedding a tear I would put it
If your computer REALLY just restarted by itself, it is not your fault, sometimes odin can hang up and crash (not responding) and kill your phone too.
Moment of silence for her (bows head down)
but seriously, I hope you have insurance. If you have insurance, everything will be ok
Just say it started getting hot, you went to bed, woke up the next morning, and it would not turn on.
Or warranty repair might do it.
I bricked my old HTC Hero when I made a mistake flashing the radio and I returned it to store and had it back repaired 2 weeks later . The repair report blames the mainboard and replaced it all free.
So good luck, and I know exactly how you feel

Power the phone off completely. Pull the battery. Put the battery back in after about 30 seconds. Hold down both volume buttons while also plugging in the USB cable. Keep the vol buttons held down until you see the d/l screen come up. Let go of the buttons and then click vol up once to proceed to d/l mode.

Sorry I guess I missed that part. Thought it was stuck at the AT&T screen. Try leaving the battery out for a good ten minutes or so and then seeing if it responds by plugging in the charger.

Ok I will try that and after that I´ll let you know what happened thanks.
Nothing happened? any other solution?
What was the battery level like when the phone last turned on? If you can't get it to power up at all, there's only so much you can try. I'd try plugging it into a different outlet as well as maybe the computer and see if you can get any response from it.
When you have the battery in and press and hold power, do you see the softkeys briefly blink like they normally do when turning the phone on? It's possible that the battery is somehow the problem but I guess it could be the phone too. Would love some other input from other people cause I'm at a loss on what else to try.

It was at 30% I think the battery is discharged but I don´t know how to recharged.
When I press and hold power or vol up and down the softkeys don´t blink.
Yes I know I need more people to give solutions but thank you very much Kadin.
Well if you think it's fully discharged, leave it plugged into the wall for a while. It's possible that it dipped down below the point where it normally shuts off (around 5%) and may need a good long charge to get it back alive. I'd attempt that if you haven't already.

So - it got to the AT&T logo - tell us EXACTLY what you did after that.
It might help too if you explain what it was you did to the phone to try to get back to att stock.
Include the filenames used, and if you Odined, where you used them.
Just a thought,

There is a very good chance that if you charge the phone with wall charger
to be sure the battery is not dead and then use a JIG which will get it into
download mode you will be able to reflash the stock rom.
You can buy a JIG for less than $2 bucks including shipping on eBay.
Be sure that when you do get it into download mode to re-download
the stock rom just to be sure that the rom file is not corrupted.
Good luck!

I´ve reflashed this rom I777UCKH7 OCD No BL.7z two times with odin and it said "OK" the phone reboot but when the loggo appears stocks there, the battery is not dead, yesterday I took the phone to some center and they´ve said is not dead but I can not do anything also with the jig.
Also I used this thread to back to return to original rom

The way you phrased your description above make it sound like you flashed a .7z file in Odin3. If you tried to do that, it wouldn't work, or course. The file you named, I777UCKH7 OCD No BL.7z contains an executable file that is an Odin one-click downloader. You have to extract the file from the 7 zip archive first, then run the file in windows, then connect your phone to the pc. Maybe that's what you did but your description is confusing?

Sincerely I don´t remember what else I did but the problem is I can not do anything because I can not enter to download mode or recovery, the phone doesn´t turn on even with jig.
This happened on my captivate based on what I have read your phone is hard bricked and is basically a large paper weight now. But don't take my word for it I sold my cappy on Ebay when I hard bricked it and about a month later there was a fix for it with a jtag goodluck
