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,

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.

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.

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 ?

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

Basically what the title says, flashed phone bricker and everything went great. Rebooted my phone to go into CWM because it still had some issues and I just wanted to go back to 2.3.6 for now. The phone froze and now I cant get into CWM or even download mode. What can I do???
...
And so it begins...
If you cant get into recovery using the key combo, use a jig.
More details, when I plug in the phone in an off state, a battery shows up on screen but the ring is not spinning.
Did you read the name of my Rom?
Its meant to brick your phone.
So what steps did you take to flash...
adb can work too
Sometimes you can do an 'adb reboot bootloader' to get the phone to boot normally too.
Just wiped/factory reset and installed it with Clockwork to install. This started happening after a reboot.

Hey Red5, I just flashed the new I777 leak and odin flashed red/failed while it was at the SBL.bin part.
What does that mean? My phone doesn't work now.
You see I have 4 posts, so I'm obviously new at it. You act like you never flashed something wrong when you started or anything.

The ROM you flashed didn't have bootloaders, so I highly doubt you're bricked. Are you sure you can't get into download mode? How are you doing it?

read the stickies for cripes sake
Yea, I don't see how you could have bricked it by that...
1st. Have you tried going into CWM with...volume up/down and power?
2nd. To get into download mode have your phone powered off and hold both volume keys, while your holding them down plug in usb...should go into download.
Still just getting the frozen battery charging screen
EDIT: Son of a *****, I was in a USB 3.0 port that didn't provide enough power. Plugged it into a USB 2.0 and it booted right into download mode. Sorry guys, you're all aawesome
Any suggestions where to go from here? Just flash a stock rom with ODIN? Could anybody link to one real quick?

Just wondering...how are you getting to recovery mode?
Well i was going to install a custom rom on my samsung galaxy sii sgh-i777. i placed the 2 zip files on the sd card. I was rebooting in clockworkmod and my phone fell and the battery was knocked lose. the phone lost power and when i tried to turn it back on it would show the "rooted" home screed sgh i-9000 i think? and then dimly flicker a couple of time after that screen like it was trying to load but couldnt. i can open odin mode only while connected to computer? i cant access the drives at all. anyone have any suggestions? anything would be great! Thank you!
So you can't get into recovery while holding volume up+ volume down + power? If not, try pulling the battery while the charging cable is plugged in, leaving it out for like 10 second then putting it back in and trying recovery again. If you can't get into recovery, you'll have to Odin back to something. Have you tried getting into download mode, just tho see if you can? Plug the phone into the USB port of computer, and hold the same buttons you normally would to get into recovery.

First are you sure you have an i777 and NOT an i727 skyrocket? Did the ROM flash and then you rebooted or you were just "rebooting in clockworkmod" If the ROM flashed are you sure you flashed an i777 ROM and not an i9100 ROM? Or did it stop in the middle of the flash? Where did you get the ROM from? I have a feeling you were on galxaysIIroot? More info I hope you can get some help here! GL

Anyway, you can use one of my guides for instructions on how to flash with odin. If you want to move toward custom firmware again, use the first one in the list in my signature.
Sorry ripture, not sure how/what happened with the link, but you're in better hands now with creepyncrawly's guides.
I had the same issue though it did not happen the same way. you have to go into download mode and use Odin to unroot and then root again. I'm not sure if u need to unroot but that's the way that I did it and everything works fine now. if you need help on how to do it just pm me.

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.

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

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....

Hi Guys,
My sister has a galaxy s3 from t-mobile and she was having issues with the battery dying and the phone wouldn't power on here and there. I made her go into recovery and wipe the cache. The phone powered on and then a couple of hours later it wouldn't start.
When I plug the charger in with the battery the charger light doesn't go on and the phone doesn't start.
When I plug in the charger without the battery installed the red charging light goes on but the phone doesn't power on and then the red charging light goes out. My PC installed some drivers when I plugged it in but I don't see the phone in My Computer.
I tried to go into recovery and download mode with no luck.
My main objective is to retrieve the data on the phone (family photos). Is there any possible way I can do this?
Your help is greatly appreciated! (Theses photos are important)
Ok so I ran Odin and connected the phone and it is showing that 0:[COM5] is detected or it's highlighted yellow. Does this mean anything? The phone charging light still goes off after a minute and the Odin says the device was removed.

I'm sorry but no, the data is probably unrecoverable -the internal data is not the place to store precious photos.
When you plug it on computer did you sea it installing usb drivers or there is a sound or something like that ??

These are the screenshots of the Driver that was installed and what Odin shows when I plug the phone in.

The problem is that I have pictures in the phone and I am trying to recover them before I flash anything. That is the problem I'm trying to figure out
