Please HELP ! How do i get back ? to my phone normal mode ?
I Tried connecting my phone through ODIN but the phone isn't getting detected
Plz Help
Your Response is awaited
Thank you very Much
Remove all samsung drivers and kies and reinstall them. After that flash cwm in odin mode. And yes next time select normal method while updating binary. Else u will be into cwm bootloop again.

same thing happened to me..I had the phone back up..tried to restore it first..didn't work. then I reflashed cwm through odin and restored my back up..and it worked fine. and next time updated su binary as normal
Hi Kaushik,
I did all that by removing the Samsung Drivers.. In order to Flash my mobile back odin should detect the usb connection..
It tries to install the USB driver then pops up an error which says "FAILED". I even tried the android drivers on their official website. Doesn't work
Kindly, help

if it goes to cwm recovery then wipe the data first using cwm before connecting via usb..it may help in odin detection. .

Hi Imran,
Do you mean Wipe Data/Factory Reset option ? which is actually the 3rd option in CWM mode.

Hi Everyone,
Now my phone is getting detected via USB, but the problem now is the backlight keeps on flashing every now and then & even during the "FLASH" process through ODIN it doesn't stay long in the "Download Mode". It restarts itself.
What can be the issue ? Is it the battery ?

what r u flashing..is it cwm then untik the auto reboot option.....and reboots in what...
Thank you everyone.. The problem now has been resolved.
1. Initially, The USB connection wasn't getting detected,.. That's because i wasn't able to go to the download mode and always used to be welcomed with CWM Recovery Mode.
2. After trying so many things, the battery got depleted which created problems in reflashing the CWM to get rid of boot loop.
3. The Battery wasn't getting charged through Wall Socket charger initially and got it some how charged through CWM Mode for half an hour
4. Plugged the USB connection back and got into the Download Mode and then Voila ! the usb connection was detected and i reflashed it.. The Boot loop is no more there..
Thank you guys

A a fully depeleted battery will take some time to register some charge or if its charging at all , ideally taking a battery to that level is not advisable but anyway all's well that end's well :good:

Remove then insert battery. Then try holding volume down and home button while holding power button. Will it go to download mode? If yes, read hubix's tutorial in the development subforum it's a sticky thread.

Next time , use ODIN for flashing firmware . Kies was NEVER EVER reliable .
go to recovery mode perform a factory reset/data wipe that should fix it
Please use ODIN and flash with the one-package file from samfirmware. I did the same when Kies bricked my phone too while upgrading to Gingerbread. It works!

Nope, there is no recovery mode accessible either when Kies bricks your phone. Happened to me so. Just a stupid screen with a computer and phone icon with <!> in between them. But anyway my suggestion above of using ODIN should help him out. =)
I am just sharing my experience and hope it helps.

You are responsible for taking risk of upgrading your phone or pc. I just shared my experience in hope if it helps someone.
I had bricked my phone once where I could just see black screen and after some tries white screen and nothing. I removed SD Card and SIM Card and kept it aside. I then removed battery and tried putting phone in download mode. It still did not work then I waited 4-5 min and then inserted battery again. Then I tried putting phone in download mode and it successfully gone in download mode. Then my phone was not getting recognized thru USB cable for ODIN. I changed USB port still same issue then restarted my PC and then I connected phone to USB port and finally got Froyo installed again on my Galaxy Ace thru ODIN.
My phone is bricked

Does it boot into recovery mode?
Press Volume UP + Home + Power keys until recovery menu appears.
If yes, then try to wipe cache (and Dalvik cache), fix permissions and reboot.
If that does not help, you may have to wipe data (do a factory reset).
If recovery mode does not work, then your phone seems to be semi-/soft- bricked.
You will have to get the phone connected to your PC in download mode to repair it.
Here is the correspsonding thread about hw to fix a soft-bricked phone => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458
Good luck !
i have gotten it into download mode but my computer does not see the device
Install samsung kies?
have that installed, reinstalled, and i installed all the drivers. it was working but after the odin flash failed i couldnt get it to connect. right now im building a jib for the phone.
so built jig, now im sad..... it did nothing, now either i have to send it in or some one might know a way to fix it
Guys i have a bootloop in the spaash logo,i was updating my software.

MOD problem solved thanks to @raffles496
This is how i solved the problem:
Turned the phone,removed the battery for 1 min
put battery back
hold the volume down button and then connect the usb cable
the emergency mode screen appears
just open KDZ flasher and select a .kdz file to flash.
Profit.

Currently bought a sch-i905 4g lte verizon galaxy tablet.
Boots normally, and functions.
Last night i was writing a bootloader through odin, and accidently had auto reboot checked. I was unable to write the modem/kernel that goes with it and now have a galaxy tablet that boots into the OS just fine.
The problem now is though that i can not get my tablet/computer to communicate in download mode it says "waiting for cable"
as well as my recovery is a black screen of doom.
Through rom manager when boot the tablet up i can see that clock work is installed just not boot properly..
I need some help here guys since this is outside my knowledge of fixing.
i can boot into the android OS, but when i charge it while its on it wont actually charge, the X is over the battery, but if i leave it off i can charge it just fine.

unfortunately when i use download mode, it only shows "waiting for cable" no matter what pc, what driver, and what cable i use.
If i boot into normal android, the drivers load fine, i can transfer files etc . just cant recognize it in download mode.
so without recognition from download mode,
a blanked/blacked out recovery mode
im not sure how to fix it.

its under my impression that hard reset will not fix download mode or recovery mode.
well, i did a factory reset, and now my tablet just goes to the samsung tablet 10.1 and still boots up with an ALL BLACK screen.
once its completely turned on, I can hit the power button to dim it, then i hit the power button and all is well im back to android os.
now you've fixed my battery charging issue while my tablet is on, so i am forever grateful.
Next 2 things to fix:
Download Mode & Recovery
thoughts?

Hello everyone, it's with a great thrill that I found a couple of days back the existance of the beautiful wackyrom available on your forum.
After considering it I took willingly the risk of installing it... and following all indications of flashing cwm via odin and wiping all for of data in the proper oder, I got myself stuck in a pretty unpleasant situation : CMW recovery loop. I tried to start from scratch again and again and I even tried to go back on the stock firmware (which wasn't the original french one installed on my phone but a foreign one). I know I may have made a newbie mistake, but seeing the strength of your helping community Im hoping to revive what now looks more to me like a brick phone than ever. In advance, I thank all attention and anwsers to my case.

Flash this Stock recovery via odin : http://d-h.st/hcA
Instruction:
1) Put phone in download mode by powering off ,home button and volume down while plugging the phone into the computer(if don't and don't understand search google their are many guides and videos for it)
2) You should now see the first square in Odin turn yellow and say "Ready"
3) Click on the pda tab in Odin and select the Stock_Recovery_GT-I8552.tar you downloaded
4) Click start and wait for your phone to reboot
5) Done!
Well, I should have added that to the list of things that I have tried before. The only divergence to your methode is the fact that the keys to force start the downloading mode does not work so I only can acces it thrue a restart in downloading mode within CWM...
I have wiped all pilots/kies traces off my computer, checked rooting of the phone using kingo android root, reinstall my drivers from scratch and yet Odin still dont recognise it.. Does anyone have a clue?

I also have the same problem. I have read all threads from google about this matter, that say flash rom, clear whatever2, blaz bla
BUT, still for 3 days I cant fix it. when it stuck in boot looping or turn off, odin didnt recognise my phone
Dear friends,
Install Samsung kies and it will install all the proper drivers for your phone.
Then use another port of your pc or laptop to connect with odin.
If changing your pc ports doesn't work then try to install kies on another pc perhaps.
After the phone gets connected to pc follow @lols21.10 instructions.
Worth a try.

Also: if Odin don't recognize your phone, try to change your usb cable
Changing PCs worked for me a while back.

Does Odin recognize your phone when in download mode?

not either. because my phone need to be turned on in normal mode when connect to my pc, then i need to choose the usb option whether to transfer files/camera/charging.
and only then Odin say "ready"
Do this: put your device in download mode and then you reflash firmware with Odin.
You can do this by turning your phone on pressing the buttons HOME, POWER and VOL DOWN. When your phone vibrates, release POWER and keep pressing ther other two. A screen with a warning will appear, and you press VOL UP to confirm. After that, you open Odin, plug your phone on computer and select the stock firmware by clicking on button "PDA" at Odin. And then it is just start and wait.
Same Problem
my samsung grand quattro get stuck at cwm too.. it keep booting to recovery mode when phone start up, I cant connect to Odin because I cant access to debugging setting.. HELP PLEASE :crying:
