Hi, i bricked my phone flashing KI3 with new bootloader found in here, but Odin got stuck so i removed the phone.
Now it does not go in recovery and in download mode neither. I have already trying using the JIB with no luck
What to do now?
Answering to a question.

Does it have a form of hboot? I fixed my brothers bricked galaxy using Odin but if u can put the SAPPIMG file on a SD card and boot to hboot mode that might work. If that's what ur already mean by JIG then mybad

What's hboot? As i said i can't enter in download mode or recovery mode
AFAIK The official ki3 updates the bootloader and that blocks the usb jig.

When you try to power the phone on, what happens?

The JIG does not get blocked with the new bootloaders, it just does not clear the counters in the same way, but DLM can still be entered with the JIG.

I can't power on the phone. It's totally dead
Recovery is as follows
One enter Download Mode
No Download Mode then try USB Jig to force download mode .
Phone off put usb jig in usb port boots to download mode .
Fails
Then its a service centre job .
jje
plug your jigg in your phone and then you will come in the download mode,
don't restart your phone. plug your usb-cable in, then open ODIN
find stock rom and flash it.
Do you guys even read what he said? JIG DID NOT WORK...

Bro, I know but sometimes you can not open Download mode, so with JIG you can come in to Download mode
then you flash the stock with ODIN

Jeez no download mode jig does not work as posted .
I gave a run through of correct route just in case OP was doing something wrong with a return to service centre if all failed .
jje
Yeah the JIG does not work, i will contact a service centre tomorrow
Just curious... Does anyone know what sort of gear a service centre might have that can talk to a SGS2 after its gone to such a 'dark place' that even a JIG can't wake it up? I always thought a JIG was all you needed...

Try to get back into download mode. If you can, just odin JFD and start over.

That is not a good sign. I will look for a thread that delt with that. One option you may have is using a jig. Here is a link on how to make one.

Hmm the problem the device is not working so i couldn't do anything with that thread
Have you tried the force USB download trick?
1. Remove the battery and unplug the USB cable.
2. Open ODIN (under admin privileges).
3. Plug the USB cable into your phone (with the battery still removed).
4. Hold vol-up and vol-down.
5. Pop the battery not in.
If you don't need a jig, this should FORCE the phone into download mode.
From there, you can ODIN back to stock 2.1, and update with Kies MINI to 2.2.

Try the same trick with a new battery?

I'm having a similar problem after flashing 2.2. Odin completed with no errors for me, phone went to reboot and now it won't power on nor can I get to download mode via any combination of vol+/-, battery in/out, usb cable plugged/unplugged tactics.
I will try a jig tomorrow, but after that I've read that the only option is a riffbox or possibly tmo sending a replacement. Any other possible ways to revive this thing?
i know its sounds dumb from me but any help could help you ..did you holded volume up and violume down and connect usb cable without holding power ?
try and see
iv got same problem here but my odin froze so i unplugged my phone to try again and now its just dead, cant get into download mode or anything

Its not mine. But the owner said that he had flash the phone. Then at the middle of flashing a brownout occurred. then he can't turn on the phone anymore.

Your best bet would be to get him into this forum.
We need to know what exactly he tried to flash (which firmware), if he tried to flash a pit file, if he ticked anything in ODIN, etc...
Also we need to know if he tried to get into downloader mode.
USB JIG
Just BUY a USB JIG You will be able to turn it on in a download mode and refalsh it via Odin

A jig won't work if the bootloader is messed up..
@OP: if you can enter download mode flash a new firmware.. But if you try to turn it on and it won't (just a black screen with no activity etc on it), better get it to a service center..

My own semi-bricked i9101 turns on but i can't seem to find the right firmware to use to revive it. All the i9100 firmware I tried simply did not work. I'm still waiting for someone to post the right i9101 firmware. Anyone? Please.... Thanks
Remove Battery, just hold down the VOLUME DOWN button, and the HOME button. Then press the Power button.
It will go to download mode, use ODIN, flash.
As for ROM, you can use FUS downloader

I don't see a I9101 in the list though...

Look , i had the bootloop once. I tried to power down my device, but it wouldn't work. Took out the battery and it powered on itself - bootloop. Try holding Volume Up + Home + Power buttons to get into recovery mode and then clear data/cache. I remember holding the buttons for 10 seconds before it actually rebooted to recovery
But if you read the heading of this thread gr4ndm4st3r_bl4ck, it says the home button is broke....

I'm not sure his button is really broke , cuz he didn't mention it anywhere in his post , just in the heading... Which makes no sense, who does any kind of flashing if their hardware button is broke... If it really is , then it's his fault for not taking it to repair first...
Hello,
I own a Vibrant with firmware Galaxy S I9000, as you can see in the picture (I did get confused by this), I was trying to return to the previous ROM that was backed up at the CWM, which gave error, inadvertently I rebooted the phone without CM7 reinstall and now I am always on this screen, if I try to enter download mode (usb cable plugged in, power up + down + and put the battery), I have a black screen with a loading symbol of standing, and that's it. I wonder if there are still chances that I get into the download mode with the method JIG? In order to use the software Odin. Thank you.
As i known you can be able to get download mode using jig method. But if your phone hardbricked(phone is dead) only you can use jtag method.

I re install and put Android 2.1 ... have some pit and PDA files from Android 2.2?
My phone was playing up recently thinking it was charging when it wasn't plugged in. Then one night I tried plugging it and and bang, ripped all the contacts off the inside of the micro USB.
Phone continued to work until the battery died. Now the phone wont turn on with a fresh battery... Any advice as to why? Or at least what I can do. I was running cm9 so I guess that counts out warranty?
Thanks

Greetings,
I'm having a similar issue - I was trying to root my wife's Samsung Galaxy SII GT-I9100G and now all I see is a yellow triangle w/ an exclamation mark...
Odin 3v1.85 (Android+SLP) does not recognize the device.
Neither can I boot to download mode or recovery mode.
I think I'm in deep trouble...
Any guidance is greatly appreciated,

Check your model number on the label under the battery. What is it?

If you can see an exclamation mark it means your phone is still alive.
Run odin 1.85 >>> boot your phone >> then connect it to your PC odin should recognize it wait for the com port to turn yellow.
Flash another firmware ur done.

You have to put it in download mode before you plug it in to the computer to be able to flash firmware through odin

Not necesarry i've soft bricked my phone before so I know as I did the same
Not necessarily. The NAND can still be stuffed/unfixable by the user & still boot to a warning triangle.
No download mode, no boot & no connectivity b/w phone & PC = stuffed phone & return to service centre or JTAG.

Do you have a USB JIG that you could use to try force your phone into download mode? If not, you can either make one (guide found on XDA), or else buy one off eBay for like £2. It's worth a shot.

Try this.
And in the future make sure anything you flash to that particular phone is meant for the i9100G, not the i9100.
Edit to add: if you can't get to download mode with the button combination, you'll of course need a jig as themadba suggests.
