Well you mest up with rom manager without any knowledge about it. AFAIK Your phone is now fully brick. You need to replace your motherboard(GOOD LUCK WITH WARRANTY )

If Flashing and Unbrick not working, what ever you do or how you try, then you probably messed up your boot ROM and it´s BRICKED. SORRY FOR YOU, but always, I MEAN ALWAYS read and search the forum 10 TIMES, before you start up messing your phone. It can very yeasely BRICKED.
I hope you can change it from service for free. Say that you trying restore to FACTORY setting(just make up some story[believable], why you was need to restore to FACTORY settings). Maybe they belive you and change your BRICKED phone to new one. Thumbs up for you and dont do anything stupid next time!!!
P1tt187, just out of curiosity - how did you even do that?
When I tried to use ROM Manager it told me to install the correct drivers, but Galaxy Ace isn't supported, so I just resigned. Which drivers did you use?
P1tt187 My friend had the same thing, he used a ROM Manager to back up the ROM in the ACE. Identical symptoms. Only the Samsung service will help. Tell him that you turned off phone and not turn on (Phone) . Samsung Service exchanged him motherboard in ACE (on guarantee).
Galaxy Ace not supported yet by ROM manager! Sorry for you but search the forum(or just GOOGLE it) before trying something first. There is always GOOGLE to helping(if you not found it here). Just USE it!
I have rooted and customized all my phones(HTC, SAMSUNG), JAILBREAKED AND UNLOCKED all my IPhones(3G and 4G), just waste some time, for GOOGLE! But you must be patient. Everything is not coming in first search(but everything is there, TAKE THE TIME and be sure for right thing).
CHEERS!
Hey,
I just have the same problem, but I didn't touch to the ROM or anything else
I just rooted my phone with SuperOneClick, turn it off and it never turn on again...
Since my phone is rooted, I don't know if the warranty is lost, but I think so...
I already tried to remove the battery and then put it back while holding ok + volume down + power, but it didn't work, the screen stays completely black...
I'll let my phone rest a few days and then send it to Orange while I pray --'
Any other idea guys ?
( sorry for my bad english...)

I'v tried to unbrick my phone, but it stucks on Odin at <1> setup connection..
I've let it run for 1 hour, but nothing changes
On the thread you gave me someone say that there is no solution for that...
What I don't understand is that I neither Flashed or tried to change the Rom of my phone, I only rooted it with SOC...
Anyway thanks for the help, I'll send it to Orange in a few days...

Of course I dont know what you exactly done or not but if its stuck in black screen and cant flash with ODIN, then I think its TOTALLY bricked. Sorry for you, hope you get it changed to new one! THUMBS UP FOR YOU!
Hi guys ! First of all , I'm sorry for being a noob ,as this is just my 2nd android phone ...
So,my problem is that after an upgrade(android 2.3.7 MIUI interface beta2) I get spammed with errors after I boot(all I can do is "Force Close" them) ...
-I can't enter Recovery Mode(freezes ,I had this problem on all my other android versions except CMs)
-When I try to upgrade my OS using download mode+RUT v1.1.4 I wait for it to finish but after it finishes and I take out the battery(to exit DL mode) and reboot,nothing is changed (same OS,same errors)
Things I Tried
-Hard Reset(done it 3-4 times,no luck)
-Take out the battery and restart the phone
-Restarting it several times(30 times or so)
-Removing SD card / SIM card
Phone : Orange Boston
Any help is highly appreciated! Thanks

It's not a hard brick -_- if your phone shows any kind of activity, be it even battery charging animation when it's off.
Try to get a USB Jig, that'll take you to download mode and then flash anything via Odin.
if it is a Hard brick JTAG could be helpful. Also try to contact AdamOutler http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236273 He is develpoing a SDCard Recovery for hardbrick devices.
He need a device for it, and if he get it in time it will help you.
No .. my phone didn't show any kind of activity
no light .. no charging animation .. nothing at all
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/explaining-and-advancing-the-unbrickable-mod/
Hard Brick-The device is unresponsive and will not enumerate USB, a hardware based solution is the only method which will recover this type of brick
Soft Brick -The device shows something on the screen or possibly nothing at all, firmware download is possible because this is a “Download Mode”.
UnBrickable-The device has been modified to accept a debug-mode flash which cannot be altered.
Lucky Brick- The device ends up in UnBrickable debug mode and the Ultimate UnBrickable Resurrector can be used without a hardware modification to resurrect the device.

any help ?
What kind of help are you expecting ? Tho it's obviously not what you want to hear, it doesn't sound like it's a firmware issue that might mean it's (relatively) easily fixable.
If its under warranty, send it in to Samsung/authorised repairer & hope they don't care or don't notice you've been running non-stock firmware on the phone. You never know, they might fix it under warranty. If they won't, then you can look at having it JTAG'd or repaired locally by a 3rd party repairer given that will probably be cheaper than having Samsung/authorised repairer fix it if they do decide to charge you.
Anything anyone here tells you to try is just delaying having your phone fixed/depriving you of your phone for as long as you delay having it fixed.
i mean i need to make sure there still a hope !
based on a previews experience .. anyone saw this problem before ?
also it's the first time to know about the Hard brick
based on what i said , is my phone having a hard brick ?
so , it will be a software problem or something like that ?
Try this ^^ CLICKY
can't hurt by sounds of things :good: :fingers-crossed:
The repairing shop told me that the mother board burned !
Hi,
I have the exact same problem as some of the other bootlooped/bricked Galaxy S3's, i was on a custom samsung 4.1.2 rom for about a month and while browsing the net today it crashed went in bootloop now i cant get out, went into cwm recovery mode and factory reseted but didnt do anything.
The problem now is i cant go back into clockwork mod at all, so i went into download mode by pressing power + voloume down and menu button and went into download mode and opened odin flashed a stock rom, however it just keeps saying fail after nand write.
I now tried a custom rom and the same issue occurs and it fails, now when i pull the battery out and turn it back on all i get is a error message saying 'firmware upgrade encountered an issue please select recovery mode in kies and try again' can somebody please helppppp me i literally have no phone at use at the moment!
Thanksssss :highfive:

If you have a jig you might be able to bring it back to life and get in downloadmode and retry flashing a stock rom again. Pull the battery for a minute, reinsert it and use a jig. If you don`t have one try to buy one. Good luck
factory reset is your only way
yes a reply!

It's only 2pm here in Cali, I'll be trying all night. Plan b is to send it into Mobiletechvideos, they do international shipping too, 5 star rating. But in the mean time, I'm going to do some ODIN trouble shooting, maybe try the Mac OSX alternative, Heimdall, and see if I can get it to connect.

That's three of uss folks
I relate to you guys for that's exactly the same problem I'm going through. After successfully updated to the Jelly Bean 4.1.2 UK BTU international version and beautifully restored all my apps via Titanium backup I then proceeded to restore as well my EFS folder through a program named kTool, ignoring its warning message cuz I was just following a tutorial put out on a S3 Brazilian forum believing there was no danger at all.
Well, to my sadness and despair it returned on a bootlooping mode, if you will, and I did everything firstly tried to recover then wiped cache, dalvik, data, formatted the whole stuff and finally installed again via odin in download mode the same jelly bean 4.1.2 all to no avail
Now I got the bootlooping and when I press volume up + power + home I get a screen with a seemingly dead robot with a exclamation sign in its chest. Please what do I do in order to fully recover my S3?? this situation is killing me.

I've already watched the YT vid.

Dude, I've watched that vid but haven't tried that procedure so far, matter of fact I will do that however flashing an earlier version of the ROM, perhaps JB 4.1.1 or 4.0.4 or yet the current one from another country since the UK BTU version I downloaded was somehow corrupted. Anyhow thanks for the heads up to avoid factory reset and reboot it instead, hopefully I'm going to manage to get the CWM recovery screen cuz now I get only this:
Android system recovey <S3>
Volume up/down to move to highlight:
power button to select.
Reboot system now
apply update from ADB
Apply update fom external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
Right below it appears, along with the fallen/dead robot, the folowing message:

Alright, so I myself am a Motorola guy myself, but I do have some experience with Samsung..
You don't really have that many options here. If you were able to get into cwm, then by all means you could recover all of your data. But really, all you can do here is restore with odin. You're pretty much out of luck. Sorry
