Hi!
My friend has bricked his phone while he wanted to boot in recovery. As he told me he has a no-boot brick -> hard brick. We tried almost everything. we could connect it to odin. but it had Setup connection loop and we weren't able to flash it.. Now I just saw a video on youtube about USB Jig. I'm wondering about that it can really work with our Galaxy Ace.. If someone has some exeperience with it, please share it with us
Thanks! =)
The setup connection has something to do with not ending Kies completely

Well I asked my friend he told me that he removed it from his computer. Now he is reinstalling it.. I hope it'll work
We tried almost everything.. Only Power + Volume Up + Home button worked. Odin detected it and as we wanted to start the flash it came into a "Setup connection" loop. My friend installed kies again, but it did nothing. I don't know what to do.. :/
how bout the drivers.....?

what do you mean? :O
Maybe u can try this, remove battery and sd card, hold vol down+power+home connect to yr pc then insert battery then wait for odin to detect. Be patient!!!
Hope it works.

This was sent from a Galaxy Ace. Problem?
That's strange man. :-( Odin work in mostly all cases. You just need to be sure if it's one package or multiple files. Cooper.ops file is must to be selected.

please help me, i bricked my phone when i was trying to update the firmware using samsung kies but kies stuck at 0% for almost 40 minutes so i remove the usb cable knowing that it is dangerous but it force me to do that because my phone is too hot. when i try to open my phone, there's a phone-triangle-computer icon showing at the center, i can access download mode but i can't get into recovery mode.. i tried to reflash it using odin but odin always stuck, i already killed the process of samsung kies at task manager before flashing, try a different computer, plug the usb cord at the back of my computer, turning off firewall and anti virus. please help..
Edit: i already tried downloading different firmware.

Hi
I unsuccessfully tried to root my YP-GI1CW using the process described at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852546
I realise now it was the wrong process but unfortunately my player now has the "firmware upgrade encountered an issue".
I would like to recover if if possible but Although Odin can detect the device when attached, adb does not see any devices. Im not sure if I can make the damage any worse but would appreciate any help in recovering my device.
Thanks - xdanewbie
Did you make a backup of your ROM first off
Second: can you get in recovery
Third: if you want to superuser try superoneclick to root your device
Fourth:you have to be careful not to do things like that it's very dangerous to the device.

As long as you can access download mode you should be able to get the device working again. I'd try heimdall (get suite 1.3 I believe) instead of Odin. It usually works better. You just need to find the Odin stock package for your device.

No you didn't break your device forever. All you have to do is install your stock rim that suites your device and flash it with hemidall

Hi
I realised that Heimdall was failing as it was using the standard sansung USB drivers. Im now trying to figure out how to stop those drivers from loading every time i plug in the YP-GI1.
In the meantime, I used ODIN to try and load the PIT and PDA rom image.
It appears to work but then the write fails (see attachment)
Any help would be appreciated - Thanks

Hi
I couldnt get zdiag to pick up any driver, the word samsung_android briefly appears when i connect the usb cable to the device but by the time standard usb driver load, the zdiag drop down window is blank.
However, I tried Odin 3.0.7 with the pit and rom files and the device did flash sucessfully. Now the device boots and says sansung galaxy SII GT-9100G and a yellow triangle and stops there. I can boot the device into download mode but I cannot seem to get into recovery mode by holding power-home-vol+
Im not even sure if this is progress or whether I have used the wrong rom (which i doubt because it clearly stated it was for the galaxy 4.2 international version YP-GI1CW
I have taken a screenshot of the successful flash.
Thanks for talking the time to help me. Im a little stuck now as I dont know what to do next.

First you would need to take the right package for your device as I explicitly written it was made for YP-G1 only. (See the YP-G1CW) you would need in that case, something so you can fully restore your device. Maybe you can find it in the 4.2 general forum.
And even so you said it was made for the 4.2, the file says it's for YP-G1 a.k.a the 4.0.

Did you try getting the 4.2 drivers from Samsung Kies and then using zadig? Also it seems like you're using an S2 restore, which isn't for your device. The comment I linked you to is for restoring a YP-G1 so you would have to get the right heimdall package for your 4.2 like zaclimon said.

Yep, Im officially an idiot. I did not even know the firmware was for the 4.0. I had missed the different between the YP-G1 and theYP-GI1
I have now found the correct rom here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1884071
However, i have tried every version of Odin from 1.3 to 3.0.9 and they all fail to complete the Nand write (see below)
I have tried 2 pc's with 2 cables and all versions of Odin.
Any other pointers would be appreciated.

I think you are going to have to use Heimdall for this. Try and get the drivers installed for this device, and see if zadig picks it up.

Hi
OK. It appears that I can either setup my PC to Use Heimdall (which requres the samsung KIES drivers NOT to be installed) or Odin (which requires the drivers to be installed)
I have now deinstalled the kies usb drivers, run drivecleanup to remove the old usb entries and downloaded Heimdall 1.3.1. When I run zdiag it picks up the samsung usb driver and install the heimdall driver.
Im trying now to use the rootted rom available (which seems ok for odin) available at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1884071
However, if I try to use it with Heimdall 1.3.1 it says missing firmware.xml
I have a friends galaxy 4.2 also. Is there any way to extract the required info from that device or can anyone give pointers to where i might find a heimdall package for the YP-GI1CWXEU
Thanks - xdanewbie
In my opinion...heimdall is a little more advanced as opposed to odin. I suggest you stick to Odin...the flash might have failed because you flashed the wrong files before. From your thread...I believe you will get the PIT file...flash that and then flash the ROM and if you want, the kernel.
EDIT: I tested Odin v3.04...and it works fine with my YP-GI1.

Hi
Thanks for your help. I have the rom from the link above but where would i get the pit file from ?
Thanks - xdanewbie
Update: I found the PIT file for the international 4.2 version. I used odin 3.04 with the pit file followed by the rom and my device its now working again Is there any way now to get rid of the Salaxy S2 logo ?
Either way, many thanks to all who helped and I hope this thread helps those who were as silly as I was !

To remove the yellow triangle, you need to use a USB JIG, google the term to know what I mean. There are no other ways to do the same.

PS: For those who may be interested, 4.2 case seem very expensive. I purchased this (whch is for a galaxy S2) and its a perfect fit but you need to

Hi chaps,
I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII of my mates here thats stuck on the boot logo, my mate has already had a go at fixing it with odin with no joy.
I can get it into download mode ok and have odin downloaded ready, i have a feeling he has wiped the operating system and bootloader off :silly:, need some advice on how best to proceed with this one.
The details inside the phone are as follows
MODEL GT-I9300
FCC ID A3LGTI9300A
SSN:-I9300GSMH
IMIE354244/05/981362/2
S/M RF1CABR307M
Thanks in avance
I have tried installing UK factory software using odin 3.07 and 3.09 with no joy, as soon as it trys to write it fails, i thing maybe the bootloader is damaged or missing, how do i fix that?
Try the rescue firmware, from general forum with the pit.
If that doesn't work then the emmc chip is damaged.
Without bootloader the the boot would be a hard brick, it is what runs download mode so it's still there.

In this link you should find everything you need. The zipped driver is older than the .exe and older than the driver you have. It is also the one that works for me.
