probably didnt do it right then
they're not necessary anyway, just to get rid of the rainbow and be able to see recovery but can do stuff with rom manger so dont need recovery, thats what i do
yeahhh..... your not doing it right I think..... test this....if you can still get into dl mode by holding both volume keys and inserting the usb then your still on stock bootloaders.... if your on the gb bootloaders you just hold vol up and power.... no usb required
i should have asked...... what roms are you flashing??? I just checked that link above..... you did pick GINGERBREAD BOOTLOADERS right? not to insult your intelligence.... we are here to help

I was installing the Gingrebread Theme for Galaxy 3 [v4.00](I5801) and I just tried to copy the framework-res.apk & twframework-res.apk files from SD Card to system/framework. It said not enough space and then when i went back to delete a few files, my phone stopped responding for a while. So i turned off the phone. Now, it doesn't turn back on!! The first Samsung logo appears, and then the screen goes blank. I tried to turn it off and turn it back on again but the same thing happened! It didn't turn on!!! HELP PLEASE!

Don t worry. Its not hard bricked. Now I would suggest download stock ROMs from here and flash. Those ROMs don t have bootloader so no risk of hard bricking.

Hello,
I dont know IF posting in the right place, but I searched the whole forum for a proper answer how to "unbrick" my boot loop-ed Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830..
Now I've tried installing several firmwares using Odin multi downloader v4.83 but none of them helped me, after all I cant access Recovery Mode!
I can acess Download mode, Emergency Dmod (arm9) and RAMDUMP (arm9)
I have: Android 2.3.3 GingerBread on T-Mobile Carrier (Hungary)!
How did I get here: rooted with SuperOneClick 2.3.2 and used an app for unlock (Galaxy Ace Unlock.apk) witch was probably the main source of the problem... Had no problems until I decided to reboot, rebooted successfully, the problem I had then was No carrier, then tried a second reboot and ever since then I'm stuck into a boot loop with no access whatsoever to RECOVERY MODE.
After installing firmware and waiting the 5 minutes in Odin, my device reboots intro a boot loop after about 2:32 min and nothing can be done furthermore...
I've serched the forum and found that data.rfs is missing in the firmwares... maybe that the source of the problem to... I dont know...
Please help me fix this problem!! Thank you!

You'll just have to keep flashing roms via Download Mode until one works (try flashing the stock rom).
P.S.: Your device has it's own forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1164.

It seems like your motherboard is damaged so you'll have to take it in under warranty.

You have done everything you could and it's still not fixed (even the things other people did when they had the same problem - it worked for them, but not for you), so warranty is the only other way to get it fixed (or at least replaced).

Thank you for the help Theonew! Appreciate! I've taken it into warranty service, hopefully they wont find my device inappropriate for free service, and so I dont have to pay for it...
The only problem is that I have to wait at least 8 days untill I get it back..
Anyway, I've researched this Galaxy Unlock apk. and it seems thats the main source of the problem.
Thanks again!
i was running two roms with dual boot. first was a supernexus jb rom and other mystic glory. i had some hicups with supernexus so i flashed a dream kernel over it. for the first time it booted upto dream logo (even asked for loading 2nd rom) and then went black; phone turned off. second time happened the same thing. then i tried to go to cwm recovery mode, but no luck. so booted with mystic glory rom and from the restart menu tried to go to cwm recovery. the phone turned off and now the phone wont boot beyond samsung galaxy s2 logo.
i searched through this forum and couldnt find any solution.
any help would be greatly appreciated. pls provide any links to any threads if you want me to download something.
Thanks

Dual booting has always been unstable and the only way out is to start from scratch. I would not advice dual booting unless you are able to spend time redoing it.

Go to the development section and check out the stickies for going back to stock. That should be your first step.

The only think that can hardbrick was that bootloader you flashed... Don't do that when it's completely unnecessary.

I was trying to install MIUI on my s4 but it showed up that the software/kernel was not authrorized so I reflashed PAC and saw on another forum that I should use ez unlock to unlock it it (which I did) and then tried to flash it again after wiping and now my phone won't turn on (no recovery or odin either). Help please!

to enter download/odin mode from a power off state hold power and volume down. To get to a power off state, pull your battery.
If you can't get to odin mode...I have no idea how you can fix that.

Is that really the only option, I think it's because I flashed a sprint rom so there has to be some way to fix it right?

If you can't get the phone to do ANYTHING. Not even odin or recovery modes. What other options would you expect there to be?
You can try to get it to do whatever it does when you press the power button while attached to your computer to see if you can get ADB to recognize the device. If so you could potentially force it to go into recovery.
I understand that but I still don't see why flahsing a wrong rom completely disabled the phone

Lol even if you don't understand, your phone still isn't going to work. If you can't get into Download Mode or Recovery, You can send it to get Jtag repaired at a number of places. This is signifcantly cheaper and they can unbrick your phone.
Help! The phone dropped to the ground once and had a crack on the digitizer and LCD screen. I replaced both of them and now, it is stuck in a boot loop (turns on, stays on splash screen) I've tried flashing the latest firmware thru Odin, but the same thing happens. All I can do on the phone is just getting to the download mode. I can't get to recovery, too.
Did you wiped cache and dalvick before reboot?
Before the first bootloop what did you do(Install an apk? Flash a zip?)? Were you rooted? A custom rom? A stock one?
During Odin did you wait for pass and blue color?
have you seen This? Is that similar for you?

Yes, I did wipe both, I didn't do anything weird except a reboot, not rooted, stock ROM, pass on Odin, not similar to the hard brick problem. I can get to download and recovery mode.
You can go now to recovery mode? Have you retry to flash a rom?
Do you remember last version before and the last you install? Couldn't it be you had try to flash an older version?

It seems this issue is a difference in screen compatibility. To fix this, you can turn the device on and let it boot into the Android OS, then (while still on), unplug the old LCD and plug in the new LCD. Hit the power button to ensure the new LCD is working properly, then turn the device on, and finish assembling your phone.
same issue

need help desperately
I just got a galaxy mega from someone an got ripped off because it's running 4.4 kit Kat and had the screen replaced right before I got it, so it doesn't work. Bootloops. Due to not an OEM screen and I don't really have the cash to risk ordering a screen claiming to be oem.
So how can I just downgrade to a version before the need for OEM screen??
Please any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I'm still a bit confused as to what exactly I should do.. there's alot in that thread.. I really can't afford to buy another screen. This really sucks that the update requires OEM screen in order to function.. if I could find a way to fix the issue without buying a screen I'd be extremely grateful!
But I don't have much experience at all with rooting and flashing custom ROMs, and I'm kind of afraid to brick the phone..
Any help to get the touch screen up and running would be highly appreciated!!
Thank you!
