My name is ovidiu and i need your help!!!!!!

What can i do!!sorry for disturbing u!!cheers !!AND TODAY I BUY A USB JIG FOR THE SGS2 BUT IT DOESN'T WORK!!!
Use Odin to flash a new kernel (Clockwork Recovery for example) as PDA. This time do NOT unplug before its finished.
Remember to flash the kernel while you're in DOWNLOAD MODE: Vol down + Home + Power
Try to get into either recovery or download mode.
TURN PHONE OFF
VOLUME DOWN+HOME BUTTON+POWER
IF IT WORKS, PLUG IN AND OPEN ODIN AND FLASH AGAIN
hope it works for you

So you mean your device is completely dead? No Download mode, no keys are working, right?
Have you tried to pull out the battery for some secs and put it back again?
Regards.
Yes try to remove battery and put back in, and if nothing works then you broke the phone, time to send it back (tell them you did samsung kies update and this happened)

If you have tried all the things suggested and the phone cannot switch on, then how do you think Samsung will switch it on?
Right now you have an expensive paper-weight. And to be honest, you deserve it. The instructions for flashing the ROM will have told you not to unplug the USB until the flashing process was finished and roughly how long the flashing time would take.
So you have nothing to loose returning it to Samsung saying that it happened updating their KIES.

This time i'm sure its bricked...
I was installing the Voodoo lag fix for 2.2 JP6 firmware and it failed... Then the phone started with the Phone (!) PC icon...
I'm unable to get into Download mode.
I'm goig to use this factoidz.com/how-to-unbrick-your-samsung-vibrant-galaxy-s/] Method to try and get it back to dl mode then i'll reflash with my Jp6 and just be happy with a good 2.2 rom and no lag fix.
Anyone ever recovered from this issue before? Could you please explain how?
Thank you,
Jay
someone should start selling those Jigs lol.
I have that pc-(!)-phone icon once but I just send it to TMO.
Try getting to download mode using ODIN !
Make sure phone is fully of then start odin and hold VOL UP + DOWN buttons and insert the USB cable into Galaxy S and Downloading screen should comes up !
Always works for me after bad ROM flashes ...

They do. I saw them on ebay for $20
ODIN won't with if you can't get into dl mode. If this doesn't work, one of the resistor jigs most likely will. My phone was hardware locked when first tried messing with it.

If you follow this^^^ exactly it will work this will get you into download mode after that you need to flash to Froyo ~~~That does not Brick! rom with odin. Right after you flash that get back into download mode open odin first then with the phone ( power the phone off give it a min, hold down the volume up and down keys, now insert the usb cord BAM download mode) flash back to whatever rom you want. Or don't learn how to to fix it and send it to tmo and tell them your phone just bricked itself somehow
Here i go!
That 2.2 was awesome! Time to stop messing with it if i get it back up...
Got'er done y'all! Thanks!

all ele fails see if you can be as lucky as me and ring Samsung tell them you updated via Kies it restarted and it hasnt come back on since, say it was fully charged and you have tried different batteries, i just got away with it lol, also try n grab a usb jig see if that works
it doesnt even starts, black screen
Strangely that happened to me in 1 ocasion, I'll just take out the battery, put it again without turning on the device, leave it connected to the charger for a few hours and then turning on and it revived!
no not working in my case
best way and save way to flash the rom is CMW odin is risky
is there any other flash tool besides oden?

We need a lot more info. What did you flash, how did you flash it. Where did you get the firmware. I ask the last question because according to your profile, you just created this account today. Which tells me you got the firmware elsewhere.

To boot into recovery you want to release the buttons by the second Samsung logo pop-up. And don't plug into computer. That's for download mode.
Regardless, I don't see recovery being much help to you if Odin is not working for you.
Is odin showing that its successfully flashing your phone? After flashing back to stock with Odin, is the siyah logo at least gone?

Yes, but you need to describe everything you did and everything that happened to make you want to flash back to stock. Without knowing what caused the problem in the first place, we can't help you very much. You say you installed many roms (stock, custom). Your phone probably did not fail randomly. There is probably some event or circumstance you can think of, or change you made, just before it failed. Please be specific.

Hold the Vol+/- & PWR button at the same time, when seeing first boot, keep holding all 3, when past 2nd boot screen, release all 3.
There's no PC involved.
welll the phone was perfectly when one day pum ! turn off and then i cant boot normally. So i try to put in recovery mode and i hold volume upvolume down+power and in the second boot when i see the samsung logo i release and nothing happend. and i see only the samsung galax logo bla bla.. when i turn on the phone normally i can see the samsung logo then de siyah kernel and stack there. if i wait some minutes its restart and do it again. I try to install with odin some stock rom and pass perfectly but the phone still show me the same. its like i didnt change anything. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh i dont know if u understand me jajjaaj my english is not very good lol im gonna cry

hey dude try this.
1)Remove the battery from the phone.
2) hold the three button combo (VOL dwn + home + pwrbutton) simultaneously.
3) put the battery into phone while holding those buttons.
4) wait for a cpl of secs and see if the phone enters dwnld mode.
5) if dwnld mode shows up then u can use ODIN to flash back a stock ICS rom.
6) if not buy a cheap USB jig from Ebay and try.
Nothin and i buy usb jig and again nothing

then u should approach a nearest samsung service center if ur phone is still under warranty.
and just tell them that while updating on OTA the phone suddenly went blanck and wont turn on
The problem is i dont have warranty :S Can i try on jtag or just to trash my phone?
Hello, so i have a international S3 and have flashed ROMS since I got it. I am running Omega JB V28 with Syiah Kernel 1.7rc. All is fine for over a week. Just right now my phone froze and did not want to wake up, So I held down volume up, menu button, and power button to restart my phone. I accidentally let go too early before I saw the Galaxy s3 logo and now, I cannot start my phone??? I cant even go into recovery mode.... Any suggestions on how to get this to work??? thanks!
Try this:
Take battery out for 5 minutes and place it back in. Then do the required combination to get into recovery. If not try download mode...
If that fails... put the phone on charge and hopefully the battery will show up showing its charging. If not I can give no more advice.
Hope this helped.

Tried all of the above, took battery out, recovery didnt work. Battery out agin and download mode didnt work. Pluged phone in charge and not battery images. Tried recovery and download mode while phone plugged in charger and still nothing happens. It is weird cus I didnt prick my phone or anything, it was fine for a week. Just tried to restart it and let go to early and no this happens :/
As warranty is void you are best to source a USB recovery jig to access download mode before anything else .

You certainly pricked your S3 by at most flashing a non compatible rom for ur S3 (international) or u just messed up with something during installation,head to samsung customer care.

my phone has been rooted and flashed Omega ROM since may. The phone was working fine for 2 weeks after flashing the new Omega JB Rom v28 and it just shuts off and not power up now. I heard of people installing wrong ROMS or wrong versions of it then bricking their phons, but my phone was flashed the correct ROMS and was in a working state for 2 weeks since my last flashed ROM, never heard of a phone bricking out of now where after u've just used it... I am stopped and dont know how it happened :/ i ordered a jig and thought that might be my only way out. Anyone know if you can restart ur phone from download mode?

I may be ,isunderstanding what you are asking here but are you asking how to get your device in to download mode by using a button combo like getting in to recovery mode if so:
ODIN/Download Mode
Make sure your device is completely off
Key Combos: Volume Down + Home
While holding both of them simultaneously press the Power button until the green robot is visible on the screen indicating that handset is in Download mode.
Then press Volume Up to accept the disclaimer
Recovery Mode
Make sure your device is completely off
Key Combos: Volume Up+ Home
While holding both of them simultaneously press the Power button

A JIG is a usb end that plugs into your phone and forces it into Download Mode, all you would need to do it plug it in and it 'should' go into Download Mode.
Then hopefully you know what to do from there

USB jigs are great but most people only order one when they get a problem. I have not had a problem yet but I think its time to order a USB jig just incase

I actually am familiar on how to go to download moe and recovery mode. The weird thing is that my phone is unresponsive. It doesnt go to download mode or recovery mode at all. With no signs of life. And this happened yesterday morning after i used my phone for like 5 minutes when it was fine. I didnt brick my phone cus I wasnt flashing anything when this happened I just tried to reboot my phone and once the screen turned off it never came back one... kinda wierd and un heard of. But I did order a jig so hopefully it can be forced into download mode and take it from there....

Im running into the same problem.
I can get to the download screen but unfortunately do not know what to do from there (tried Odin and heimdal but still wont boot)
Just as another note I was able to get to my DL screen by removing battery > installing battery > holding both volume buttons then plugging in usb.
Just in case u cant get to it.
If anyone knowledgable can pm me i would appreciate it (phone is not for this forum) because i do not know what to do after i get the dl screen up apparently.
THANKS!
im having the same problem did the jigg work
You can't get into download mode? Or it won't work at all?

Only thing I can think of is a crap battery that needs replacing.. You could also go to a metro store and ask em to restore it to stock. Almost all of em have the Samsung factory device. If u can get it into download mode I have a thread where I put instructions on how to recover from brick. (After 6 days of trial and error).

I havnt used the jig but tons of people have with success. You can make one or buy one off eBay for like $10.
The device I have used before on someone else's phone, AND you can use it to unlock your phone.
