[Q] Have I completely bricked my ACE? - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Hi there,
I tried a number of ways to change the ROM on my phone from the stock to an upgraded or custom ROM. Using Odin I was always able to at least get the stock ROM back up and running.
This time I tried ClockWorkMod and something has gone wrong. I cannot turn the phone on, boot into recovery mode, or download mode and the phone is completely unresponsive. Nothing appears on the screen.
I've tried re-flashing the stock ROM through Odin and it will recognize that the phone is there and connected via USB however when I try to flash the stock ROM back onto it the program hangs at:
<1> Setup connection...
I'm running from Administrator on Windows 7, I don't have Kies installed, I have the most up to date Samsung USB drivers.
I really want to at least get the phone into download mode to flash the stock ROM back on... is really hope there is a way to do this.

just curious... how you try re-flashing through odin, while the phone can not boot in download mode?
when you charge the phone, does it show the battery indication?

I get no battery charge indicator while the phone is plugged in via usb...
However Odin does recognize that I have the phone plugged in. I hoped that this would be enough to send a flash to it through Odin but it gets stuck at '<1> Setup Connection'
I'm currently installing Android SDK. If the computer knows it's there maybe I can send a command to make it reboot into download mode?

you need to have kies to let odin work

Ok re-installed Kies and gave it a go.
While Kies was open I got:
<1> --- cannot open the usb serial port. code: 5
I'm assuming because Kies was trying to do something with it at the same time.
While Kies is not open I get:
<1> setup connection... (<Hangs here like before)

Installed android SDK.
Tried running: adb reboot download
Response was: error: device not found
Both Kies and Odin know that something is there, but the SDK doesn't seem like it knows it's there and doesn't look like it can send commands to it

first you needed to type adb devices

adb devices just brings up an empty list...
It says 'List of devices attached' and then nothing
I just really want to get it into download mode again, Odin and Kies know it's there to an extent but can't really do anything with it just yet...

Hiya!
Have exact same problem with my Ace...totally black but Odin find it. Then i stuck with that annoying "setup connection"
I connect my phone(or brick!!) with usb-cable, have no battery in it. Then i press vol down+home+power buttons and I think its in download mode. It´s just that I can´t see it becouse the screen is black.

Run
Code:
adb devices
And that will tell you if it is actually in download mode... it should list the device then the mode it is in on the right..

Most of the phones that couldnt boot into download mode were diagnosed as bricked, from what ive seen here in XDA, the SGA community.
However, you could spend a small penny on 3 100ohms resistors to create a USB jig as a last resort.

Try this :
-Put out battery
-Plug the usb cable pc - ace
-Make manipulation for download mod : home + power + sound - and plug battery in the same time
-Device go to download mod
Flash trought odin =)

Do you mean Tools--->manage AVDs in Android SDK?
Thanks for your help

Was it called ROM Manager on Market/Play? If so lie to service centre saying kies crashed when updating, there is nothing you can do. Sorry :/

Or try tu use unbrick plug, which is nothing more than normal usb plug witch resistor 300K or set of resistors equal to 303K(it is more preciouse) shorted to 4 and 5 pin.

Are youll guys serious?? look at the date please ---feb 08 that guy hss probably fixed or thrown his phone out....who are youll talking to???
You know you are rooted when you use XDA more than FB

i think you have permanently bricked your ace, take it back to the store and say odin crashed while you were flashing gingerbread 2.3.7

Now I tried everything except the USB jig. I try to make one in next weekend. Else I must tanke it to the Samsung store and say something smart I let u guys know how it goes. Thanks for all help this far:thumbup:

Uh hi.
I'm a herp.
So I may have accidently tried to root and flash my friend's Samsung Vibrant. It was going smoohtly but now, I'm all sorts of messed up.
The problem: I may have used the wrong kernel (zImage) when using heimdall-frontend (which I downloaded from xda). This is causing the phone to power on; it shows the Samsung Galaxy S 4g load screen, then Overstock, then the T-Mo logo sign (with the music), and then a longer Galaxy S load screen. After the load screen, the screen goes completely black, but all the touch buttons light up. Once like this, I can turn it off, and make it go back into recovery mode and also download mode.
Please help. I've been trying to solve this with my friend for about.. 4 hours.
P.S. I've looked up all the guides for using ODIN to get back to JFS, none works due to the reason that when I put it back into download mode, the computer does not recognize it. But it does at the same time. (it shows the "safetly remove hardware" and says that is an "USB mass storage device" ((but does not appear in "My Computer" when in the unresponsive screen-- but when in the download screen, it shows the same thing, only labeled "SAMSUNG USB Composite Device", which also cannot be accessed through "My Computer")
P.P.S. I'm sure it is a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant, exclusive from T-Mobile. My computer is Windows Vista 32-bit, and I have as many Samsung drivers as humanly possible when it comes to the Vibrant.
Can anyone help a poor fool?
Try this, get in to download mode, open Odin, then disconnect the usb cable, then reconnect the usb cable and Odin should recognize it then. Good luck!
Using XDA premium, you should be too!

Sorry. That did not work. It just doesn't recognize it in ODIN when in download mode. My computer doesn't even see it. But it does say "Safely Remove Hardware" -- "SAMSUNG USB Composite Device"
Sounds really odd. Do you have any roms you can try reflashing from recovery?

Sounds like you used the wrong odin files. if your screen is showing a galaxy s 4g logo then you must have mistakenly flashed a galaxy s 4g odin/heimdall package. on the back of your phone what is the model number. What on earth is JFS? ive heard of JFD which is the stock firmware that the phone shipped with.
If you flashed the wrong bootloader you are more or less stuck between a rock and a hardplace and will require a jtag. now the fact that teh screen does turn on is a good thing.
You need to keep trying to get it into download mode maybe try using a jig. Once youve gotten it into download mode try every single usb port you can find on your pc. When i need to odin i need to use one of my usb ports on the rear io panel none of the others will work. Once you get odin running and recognizing your device use the files posted in my sig as the odin files. any others and i cant help you cuz i dont know what your source is. Odin should be able to recover your device if it is still booting to the splash screen.
If for whatever reason you cant boot into download mode but can get into recovery here is what you do: make sure you have the android SDK installed (dont know what that is go here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html and follow their directions) then open up command prompt while in recovery type the following command: adb reboot bootloader this should put you into download mode. If nothing ive mentioned works you may require a JTAG there is a company called MOBILETECHVIDEOS (http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/) that has a JTAG service.
Good luck

my phone freeze on the first screen with the galaxys2 logo and the yellow trigon...!!recovery mode mode dont work and when i am going in download mode the pc cant reccognice the phone..!!i have allready install the drivers...!!i want to install an official rom but odin cant see the phone.!!help
If you think you get working drivers installed, put your computer online, put your phone on download mode, plug the cable, and wait for it to install.
This is for windows 7, otherwise install the Samsung usb drivers again

That's hard.
If you do not get the PC recognize your phone in download mode, you have a real problem.
Try another USB port and cable.
Try to connect your phone to another PC.
Maybe you have to give it to a service center for repair.
Is your phone already out of warranty?
I had a similar problem where it freezes on that screen.
My problem was I installed an ICS rom with old version kernel.
Once I installed the latest CF-Root the boot was successful.
If Odin can't see your phone and you can still go into Download mode, I would check to make sure that Kies is not open and no Kies process is live (Task Manager / Processes), I think it's call "KiesTrayAgent", just kill the process and any process that has a Kies word in it.
Otherwise try another PC.

[Q] your smarter, help plz

ok guys, first things first. YES i did search, i read threads for hours. So if your just gonna come to bash on me... get off it.
So i had a bad flash, oh no. Phone was stuck in a bootloop, got it to download mode and put it thru odin. Well odin said FAILED. now i can still get into DL mode but its no longer a bootloop, now its a lil picture of a phone linked to a computer when i turn it on.
SO heres the prob, i can get into DL mode, but odin refuses to recognize my phone. Ive tried other usb ports, other cords, unistalled and reinstalled odin and the drivers. USB debugging is off says aio toolbox. So what do i do now? any suggestions im not thinking of?
Any help is greatly appreciated and will b thanked. =)
Phone to PC screen still should be able to flash through.
Have you tried a different computer? One that your phone has never been in contact with?
What was the FAILED error when you tried to ODIN initially?
Can you get into recovery by chance?
i have tried a different computer, but not one it has never been on b4.
And toast, i actually dont know if i can get into recovery. Im about to look up how and try that

Gingerbread bootloader uses this combo:
For Recovery - Lower Volume Key + Power Button
For Download - Upper Volume Key + Power Button
If you have Froyo bootloader:
For Recovery - Both Volume Keys + Power Button
For Download - Both Volume Keys and Connect USB Cable
alright, i can use the hardware buttons to get into download just fine. But when i try to get into recovery it only gives me the Phone -- ! -- Computer icon. ITs getting annoying lol
Ok. I didn't figure that would work, but it wasn't going to hurt anything to try do you have any friends with Macs? You could try it on one of them with Heimdall. That would be another option to try.
Also, check out this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8149503
Read all the posts, there is some good stuff in there.
+1 on recommended thread. It sounds just like your issue. Definitely try the Heimdall AIO one click t959 for Windows.
sent from the depths of helly bean
nothin yet :/
Google eugenes froyo that does not brick, read the op carefully, because after you odin the tar file, you will have an error message, thats ok, odin eclair and you should pass.
Read it 10 times, you'll reboot in cwm with an error message, ok, reboot, download, eclair.
stupid question sorry, but do you have sdk platform tools installed?
im not sure. i downloaded something called sdk manager, but it closes the moment u open it.
SDK platform tools is a large program, But if your computer has recognized your phone up till now, you probly have the right drivers, by the way have you cleaned your usb port? toothbrush and an electronics cleaner or alcohol very lightly, never know.
ok guys. heres the update. I tried all the links you guys have kindly tossed my way. nothin. Im on a different computer even and downloaded the drivers, odin, toolbox, etc. The phone still isnt recognized. I Have no clue why, is the reason cause usb debugging is off? the only 2 screens i can get to r download and phone ! computer. Am i bricked for good??? =(

You are putting your phone into download mode before using odin right? You must have your phone in download mode for odin to recognize it. I'm guessing you have done this but I wasn't sure after reading through this thread, hope you get up and running again.

yep. tried multiple combos as well
Hey I think you should follow this..
1. Connect your phone with computer without battery
2. Press volume down and power button simantaniously for getting download mod
3. After 30 or 60 second pull back battery into phon with holding buttons
4. Odin ditect your device almost surely...
Thanks..

Ok, I just went through this over the past weekend with a spare Vibe that I have. Odin would not recognize it at all for my. I would here the Ding and then nothing. No yellow COM box, no driver installation, nothing.
Here is what I did:
First I went into Device Manager and with the phone plugged in (needs to be plugged in so you can see the yellow!), I uninstalled everything with Samsung's name tagged to it (including my SGS3 and SGS2 drivers).
Then I went here and downloaded and installed Heimdall (take note that you have to make sure that libusb-1.0 is correctly installed). There is an exe file in there (might be in the Heimdall thread here in the Vibe section), that allows you to update the drivers. That is where you would replace the Windows with libusb-1.0.
Then I plugged in my USB to PC and to phone and put it in Download mode. Nothing. So I left it plugged into the phone still but unplugged from PC and move ports. I have 3 ports and believe it or not, the one farthest from the power source/MB was the one that work. As soon as I plugged it in, I heard the Ding and saw the box pull up auto-installing the drivers.
After that, I went to Utilities in Heimdall to make sure detected. It was and I flashed Mr_Psycho's package (no pun intended ) via the normal Heimdall instructions.
Believe me, I have spent a ton of time on this and troubleshooted everything from dead USB to dead motherboard. It was a real PITA.
Edit:: If you need any of the files, Heimdall version or Drivers, just PM me and I will send them to you. You are not Bricked, just your PC's vision is clouded a bit.
woodrube i greatly appreciate the mass amount of help. i will try all the above as soon as im home and report back to u
alright, i deleted everything, reinstalled, tried heimdall still nothing. I am in download mode but laptop wont recognize anything. it says the correct drivers are installed but then says usb device not recognized, this is killing me as i need my phone imma post a video tonight of what im doing, hopefully someone sees im doing something wrong

wierd logo showing up on galaxy player 4.0 usa

hello people.
i was trying to flash the kernel from ics 4.0.4 . first i connected it to the computer to flash it from odin. the green thing that was supposed to show up in odin didnt show up. me being dumb, i clicked start on odin for the heck of it. on odin it said fail. on my player there was this weird symbol.
i tried taking out the bettery and then i waited a few seconds. then i turned it on and the same symbol was there. i also tried going into download mode but when i tried it just showed the weird symbol and then turned black and again and again. i also tried going in to recovery which also did the same kind of thing. (bootlooping) . so has anyone experienced this before.
device info:
samsung galaxy player 4.0 (usa version)
terrasilent kernel
rooted
running icyfusion.
any help would be apperciated!

He said that it's the same as download mode. For your information this mode is a forced download mode which means that you need to flash something to get over it. In this case a new kernel.

Try these:
1. Be sure to have anything Kies related not running [as a process] in the background (Task Manager alt+ctrl+delete on your computer)
2. Restart your computer and try the same usb port again (Kies process closed again).
3. Try a different USB port.
4. Try a different usb cord (I have over 4 in my home due to phones).
5. Try a different computer (I have two in my home).
Flash your kernal again as this is usually the case the phone dash exclamation sign icon comes up, odin of course.

Have you tried flashing back to stock? There is a guide in how to do it, don't do it the odin way - it's too unstable and unpredictable. Flash back to stock with heimdell.

Galaxy S3 not being recognized in odin in download mode
Could someone please assist.
My rooted Galaxy S3 phone (FW v4.1.2) is stuck at the Samsung startup screen after installing a font app from the app store
To resolve I have tried:
1. The recovery screen - doing a factory reset and reboot
2.. Reflash through ODIN.
I can get get the phone into download mode but ODIN will not recognize the phone in Download mode (Funny that phone is recognised by Odin at the stuck Samsung boot screen)
- I have unistalled and reinstalled KIES and USB drivers
- I am using the stock USB cable
- Tried different USB ports on computer
- Tried on different computers
The problem may be Windows driver related. Because phone gets stuck at the Samsung startup screen, all processes of driver installation do not conclude successful. "MTP USB Device" shows error in Windows Device manager, USB composite deivce.
Uninstalled and reinstalled these a couple of times without success.

Actually fixed my own Question....
My phone was in download mode and was not being recognized by my computer my windows 7 computer. I pressed the usb icon, where a box popped up saying that there was an unknown device. You could find this in device manager.
I then went to device manager to update the driver instead of pointing the device directly to the driver when i clicked browse my computer for software then it shows a location and option to let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer then a box pops up showing model above that there is a little check box uncheck that two boxes will appear with manufacturer and model
Scroll samsung electronics and model samsung mobile composite device that is what you want to update the driver to...
I pulled the battery then re-entered download mode and windows to over installing the rest now it works fine. I would attach images but it will not let me for some reason. if anyone can help with that I will do it later.
THIS COULD POSSIBLY help with devices not being found on computers in bootloader or just on rom loaded and running..

Could someone please assist.
My rooted Galaxy S3 phone (FW v4.1.2) is stuck at the Samsung startup screen after installing a font app from the app store
To resolve I have tried:
1. The recovery screen - doing a factory reset and reboot
2.. Reflash through ODIN.
I can get get the phone into download mode but ODIN will not recognize the phone in Download mode (Funny that phone is recognised by Odin at the stuck Samsung boot screen)
- I have unistalled and reinstalled KIES and USB drivers
- I am using the stock USB cable
- Tried different USB ports on computer
- Tried on different computers
The problem may be Windows driver related. Because phone gets stuck at the Samsung startup screen, all processes of driver installation do not conclude successful. "MTP USB Device" shows error in Windows Device manager, USB composite deivce.
Uninstalled and reinstalled these a couple of times without success.

Maybe solved it
Hey guys, i know it's a bit late now, but i had exactly the same problem with my gt-i9300 (got stuck on samsung splash screen and odin didn't recognize it in download mode) and just realised that everytime, i connected my phone to my PC in download mode, a message would appear that "Gadget Device" (or something like that) was connected. Then i searched in my device manager for the name of it (i found it under USB-Devices) and uninstalled the driver of it. As i connected it again with odin started it would install the driver automatically and *swoosh* odin recognized it.
A year and some later after the last post and I seem to be having this problem as well... I believe it was due to a bad flash at very low battery level which ended up in encryption failure ya da da, factory reset, clear/format everything and flash custom rom from SD because any other connection would not work.... then managed to get windows (many flavors inc. 7, 8 and 10) to connect as MTP or in USB debugging mode but Odin mode (download) just won't do anything... i put the phone in DL mode, nothing happens, no windows connection sounds, no changes in devices manager, even when searching for new hardware. I'd be very interested to know if anyone has had anything like that. I'd really like to flash stock to go back to a custom rom, flash twrp to replace cwm but all seems to no avail if i can't get a connection while in DL mode.
tried to install adb fastboot but also nada since no connection is being made.... might be something with DL mode gone awry with the bad flash... long story but OTA update from current ROM decided on its own to push update even though battery was at 5% and no user interaction ever happened...
we'll see what happens...
