I can't get to download mode after flashing a firmware from the forum.
Every time I try in the combination it just turns on the phoe and not going into download mode.

Does the phone boots up fine though?
Recovery access is fine?
Might be just a mechanical issue with the volume rocker. Or, you might want to consider using a usb jig to force it to download mode.
You don't have Advanced Power Menu settings on your custom rom? Do you have download mode available when holding power button in (phone already powered up)?
If not, you can try this "Reboot ++ (Quick Boot)" free on the Market.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.krm.reboot
There are other ways, such as installing custom rom with APM, and flashing a matching CF-root kernel from Chainfire. This will give root, custom recovery, his own CWM manager app (allows rom nan-backups and boot straight into DL mode / recovery etc.

At least with these methods, there shouldn't be any problem.
If you are trying to enter DL mode from power off, ensure you hold ALL buttons in, and don't release. In this order; volume down + home + power on. Once prompted, release keys and volume up.

flashed an odin package ??
that happens on simply honey sometimes, going into recovery (GB bootloaders needed - vol down and power) and disabling voodoo fixes it, reboot and leave for 15 min then you can enable voodoo whenever you want

ODIN requires download mode not recovery. Can you access download mode with the buttons?
- If so, then just ODIN. Also, if you can get download mode maybe try to ODIN the GB-bootloader and try the fix above.
Good luck!

1. Pull the battery.
2. Hold down both volume up + down buttons
3. Insert the battery.
4. Wait a few moments.
Enjoy download mode.
I was having the same issue as the OP, so my question is how do you disable voodoo? Anyone know?

You're ****ting me.
even if you were dumb enough to flash a bloody hero rom, you should be able to get into recovery unless they implemented a hero recovery into it.
get odin, put your phone in dl mode and run it, flash a new recovery.
Search the forums
Can you put your phone in download mode? Because if you can you can just reflash a stock rom from samfirmware.com onto it using Odin.
This thread may help you in reflashing a stock firmware:

thanks, but i cant go to download mode, and my phone wont turn on
2 choices, buy a usb jig or send to SamSung for repair.
Well, my phone cant enter in this modes, but the problem its that also cant enter to the system, i can only see the logo of samsung and then the screen turn off, I dont know what to do, because I cant use the odin because I cant enter in download mode, I dont know if there is a button to hard reset the phone. I was trying to put a rom of ics but i believe that the firmware was wrong for my phone. please help me.
Sounds like you flashed something in Odin that was not for your phone. You probably need to get it J-tagged to get it fixed. Check out mobiletechvideos.com
It's like $50 dollars for the service, they'll J-tag your phone and flash the correct bootloader.

Thanks for your fast answer Mattix but you don't know another way to fix it, because I'm not in United States then its very dificult ( and take to much time ) to send my phone.
How did you try to get into download and recovery. Be as specific as possible

Since the phone will turn on, and initiate the boot process, it should be able to recover it yourself. Jtag is for true hard bricks, which your phone is NOT.
Please give a full description of what led up to your problem. What firmware was on the phone before, what did you attempt to flash, and anything that you can think of that would provide any additional information for trouble shooting. Also, a link to the firmware you tried to flash.

To get the SGH-I777 into download mode, continuously hold down both volume buttons (but not the power button) while plugging in the usb cable.

I would like to see what you flashed, and if it contains the secondary bootloader for a different device. Just type in the link and I can cut and paste it.

Nobody knows what can I do in that moment?
I put my i777 on download mode by removing the battery and putting it back. Hold the volume button down and connect the USB charger wait for the buttons to flash and disconnect the charger while holding the volume down button. If that doesn't work nothing will.

Try this:
Pull the battery and leave it out.
Hold down volume button and plug in the USB cable. (PC will supply the power)
This should boot the phone into download mode.
If the above works to get into download mode, do the following:
Download the I777 secondary bootloader .tar from the Download Repository. See the link in my signature.
Unplug the phone (to shut off)
Open Odin v1.85 on screen of pc.
Enter download mode as above.
When connected put the secondary bootloader in the PDA slot in Odin and flash.

I just recently got my SGS2 (i777) and decided to root it. Unfortunately I got the root from another site (dumb move) and today the phone went into a reboot loop. I can connect it and get it into download mode, but everytime I try to flash back to the stock rom, or anything else (bootloader) Odin says connection failed, unable to open COM Port. I know it connects because it installs the drivers for the phone. Can someone MUCH smarter that me assist with this one?

can you interrupt the bootloop by trying to get to recovery (holding VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER until recovery menu appears) and then go to backup-restore and restore a backup? That's what I would try. IF that does not work, I would reinstall the drivers for andoid on your pc --even though you had them working (presumably) once before. After reinstalling the drivers then odin should (may!) see the phone and work.
good luck
Anyone got any idea how the hell I can flash stock rom onto my g/fs s2 i9100p without a working volume up button.
it doesn't connect to Kies either (suspect Orange bloatware blocking it.

Up button is for recovery. If you want to flash sammy stock rom you need to use volume down and enter download mode so you can flash via ODIN.

yep volume down for recovery then asks you to press volume up to continue!
Think a usb jig bypasses the up to continue (cant be arsed checking though).

Ah yeah, sorry forgot about that.
In that case your screwed, nothing you can do except get the button fixed.
There is one solution if you have root and that is to install Mobile Odin and start the flash of md5 via that.
depending on what rom, some developers have installed the 4 way menu which will allow you to access download/recovery mode through the power button, you will not need a working volume up button except to navigate up on non touch recoveries.

Good point. He could still navigate but will just need to keep going down until diverted back to top if needed.
There is plenty of apps in the store that can reboot into recovery/download modes like Hot reboot for example.
This is orange stock rom.
According to some websites I can use a command line ADB to push it into recovery even without root.
Going to try tonight when I get home.
tried it at home and works fine.
switch the phone into usb developement mode and then simply use adb to reboot it into recovery/download modde
adb reboot recovery
adb reboot download

TUTORIAL STARTS HERE*
1. Enter Download mode by holding both volume rockers and inserting a USB cable while still holding
2. Get to the screen that asks you if continue with Download Mode or not.
3. Remove USB cable and click the 2nd option.
4. Phone will restart and that's how you turn on a phone with no power button.*
Is this how you get into download mode? Anyway that's how you may be able to boot too.
Well and if you can't boot cause of softbrick you simply should flash another rom via Odin. Once there you can access recovery with restart tile in many actual roms I think. Otherwise you can use rom manager to boot into recovery or other apps. There are many possibilities.
