You have to press the volume up button and power to get it into download mode.

To be frank... bootloaders are dangerous. Does not sound good.
Do you see ANY lights? What about when charging? Anything? Removed the battery for a few hours and try again... nothing? May want to tell T-Mo you had an incident with mini kies, or be honest and get a new phone.

OK i have Tried ODIN.... Is clockwork recovery the same as download mode? and if not what am i missing? :more details: I can mount the internal sd to the computer from clockwork but clockwork wont mount the sd to the phone. I downloaded Kies mini and installed drivers for the vibrant. I have odin and the tar and pit files. i have the android sdk also... any help is greatly needed. Thanks.
turn on odin and hook up ur phone to ur pc with usb cable and then go into download mode. U should see a yellow icon saying com if it is yellow then ur phone has been recognized. Then put the pitfile in pit and the tar file with pda and then click start. Give it like 5 to 10 min and then it will restart and u will be back at stock!
download mode is the android guy with a yellow triangle
to go into download mode:
power off phone
pull out battery
turn on odin
attach phone to pc with usb cable

I installed Supervibecm7 1.5 about a month ago and everything seemed to be running nicely but then this morning i wake up and my phone is stuck in bootloop i cant get into recovery to fix it either. I need help very bad as this is my work phone.
Get into Download mode and Odin to JFD. Reflash the ROM or flash a different one.
Im having this exact issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1155364&highlight=boot+loop which is preventing me from doing either recovery or download mode.

try this
different with GB bootloaders
volume up + power for download
volume down + power for recovery
and also try this but try the method above first.

The download mode keys are different sometimes with GB bootloaders. For me it was Hold up or Hold down then plug usb in.
Then just odin with the 512 pit and jfd tar. Make sure re-partition is unchecked.
If all else fails and phone seems hard bricked you can get a riff repair. A guy did it for me on ebay for 35.

hi every body , my t-mobile vibrant has breaked because i have flash incorrect pit file with odin, now my phone is off and have the black screen and odin can't know my phone ,i do every way i know but it's still in black screen and not runing downloading mod or recovery, and odin can't know it too , somebody help me ...
There are about a 1000 different posts on this forum and others that explain the half-dozen (or more) ways to get your phone into download mode. They don't all work on every Vibrant, but keep trying. One of them will work. If all else fails, buy/make a usb jig that will force it into DL mode. This one works for me every time: With Odin open, plug USB cable into your computer. Pull your battery out and leave it out. Hold down both the volume up AND down buttons at the same time and plug the USB data cable into the phone.
N.B. 1. If you aren't using a Samsung data cable, this may fail.
2. Try different (older) versions of Odin. My phone for some reason really prefers Odin 3 Version 1.0--no idea why, but it would sometimes hang with later versions.
3. Run Odin as Admin. (Right click, run as, etc...)
If you need an older version of Odin, search. After that, if you can't find it, search some more. If that fails, PM me and I will put v1.0 up (but I know you will find it before it comes to that)
Edit: Get the proper pit file here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/stockodinjfd/files/s1_odin_20100512.pit/download and don't ever use anything else unless a trusted developer tells you to.
It never seizes to amaze me how people just start flashing away without doing the proper research and understanding what flashing an Android phone is all about.
Unbelievable
You need to get your phone to a download mode. To get the download mode:
1. Unplug your phone
2. Pull the battery
3. Make sure the other end of the usb is still connected to a PC
4. Press and hold Vol Up and Down
5. Plug the USB to your phone
6. Slide the battery in
I did all of those steps with two hands. lolz
Good luck
