[Q] My i717 was bricked!!!help!!! - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Can not enter the odin mode and download mode ,even can not open :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:help!!!!!

What did you flash?
Is your battery charged?

We need more info....
Tell us what you flashed (link please) and the steps you took (exactly)..
then we can determine what state your device is in...g

You have a stuck power button. Jiggle - jiggle wiggle - wiggle the button. Gently, amigo.

I assume that you mean that you can't get into Recovery as well as Download Mode?

Yes. You can remove the back, then the guts, then the bezel. Its a chore. Find a disassembly video on Youtube. I'll be over here praying for you.
It probably is covered under the year warranty. After the video gets you discouraged, call Samsung.

that is a big no no, lesson learned, do not flash a rom and kernel from another phones rom, i hope u get it fixed.

Try removing the battery completely, then hold down the down volume key and plug the USB cord in and don't let go until it's in download mode. Then replace the battery into the phone. This method has always worked for me. Hopefully it does for you too

Usually takes 10 seconds lol yeah make sure the computer has Samsung drivers installed and try the OEM USB cord. Although I have used non OEM cords before and worked just fine... I'm very very surprised that taking the battery out, then holding the down key and plugging in simultaneous didn't work.

Hard Brick

Well,
I was flashing my first test theme of my new VR theme, and I got a status 7 error in CWM.
After selecting reboot, nothing now happens with my phone, can't get it turned on with any key combination or with a jig! Ugh!
Pretty sure she's done for...unless someone has another idea?
It just doesn't do anything at all? No boot image or anything? If so, i don't know what we could possibly do.

K remove battery and plug usb into computer but not into phone. Next hold the two volume buttons and plug in the usb to your phone and see if it boots.
I might be wrong about this, but it seems like you wiped your Os. You might need to find someone to do something called jtag (I think that's what it's called) its basically the process used during manufacturing to install the Os. Look up how to un brick a hard brick. You'll read more about it.

I was not trying to be a ****. Your explanation was not quite clear and I wanted to make sure I had all the information.
When you plug your device into the wall charger, does it charge? Can you get your hands on a fully charged battery?

when i plug my device into the wall charge nothing happen the charge screen doesn't appear. And i dont have any fully charged battery.
At this point I would recommend either buying a battery and external charger for it to see if your problem is a dead battery and a phone that is not charging. Otherwise, you will probably need a JTAG service to fix your phone. Mobiletechvideos is a service that has been used by many members. The owner is a member himself.
You could try another cable, but I don't think that is the issue. When the phone was killed mid flash it corrupted the system to the point that it won't charge or boot.

[Q] Bricked Vibrant?

So i was attempting to root this thing and put a fancy new rom on it, but have got lost along the way and now the phone will not boot into download or recovery modes. It just says Samsung Vibrant and stays there until I pull the battery. I am unable to do the key combos for any of the modes. The only way I could get into recovery was through adb command. But now I cant even do that. Any suggestions or should I just throw it in the can! Thanks

Yes a usb jig (dongle) should solve your problem but its not a guarantee. I would recommend buying one anyway, its a good thing to have around just in case things go wrong. They are only a few bucks so its worth it. You can also try using odin, I have heard of people flashing to stock without a download screen, if you see a yellow com box in odin then your good to go.

try this.. it works for me..
1- Open ODIN on your PC. (DO NOT PRESS/SELECT ANYTHING IN ODIN!)
2- Plug in the USB Cable to PC
(preferably the one that came with your phone *My N1 cable doesn't work??*)
3- Power down Phone if you had not already.
4- Remove the battery.
5- Plug USB into Phone.
6- Hold down BOTH volume buttons and while holding both, insert the battery.
7- Two to three seconds later your phone will be in Download Mode.
Be mindful to not remove connection while ODIN is running.

Yea I have seen that screen before, the dongle is going to be your fix most likely. Just wait for the usb jig if you ordered one, it should put you into download mode no problem. If for some reason the jig doesn't work then let us know.

@MikePysh
I have been in this situation. I feel for you. This the mothergoosing EU bug.
Best bet (and this is how I did it) is to replace the motherboard (I know it sounds scary but it is NOT).
Here are the steps:
1. Buy a used/busted/for parts Vibrant (broken LCD, etc) or even a Galaxy S 4G SGH-T959v from eBay or wherever you can. Do not pay more than US $30-35 if it comes down to that. These two phones, i.e. your T-Mobile Vibrant SGH-T959 and the upgraded 4G version SGH-T959v have the same specs with the exception that the 4G radio is activated on the "v" version.
2. You can either fix it yourself (if you feel brave) or take it to a repair shop and maybe pay US 20-25 for labor to replace the motherboard.
It entirely depends on how badly you want to fix it without throwing it away.
Check out this: http://www.ifixit.com/Device/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Vibrant to get a feel if you can do it yourself.
Hope this helps.
Thanks fham! Sounds like a project I might attempt.

[Q] RSD not detecting Photon.

So I'm trying to flash back to stock so I can give the phone to my younger brother as I've recently gotten a new phone, the only problem is that RSD Lite is not detecting my phone at all. I have all the drivers installed so I'm not sure what's going on. Any help would be appreciated.
Also, I did look back to see if anyone has had the same problem as me, but nothing in those threads has helped me so here I am.
