Follow the instructions below to a "TEE" and your problems will be gone. You are NOT bricked.
#1: First you need to download this SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3.tar
kernel, here is the link: http://www.multiupload.com/QQKN7NJAFT
#2: Go into download mode and flash the tar file above with ODIN.
(be sure that this tar file is in the PDA slot in Odin before flashing)
#3: Then you need to ROOT your phone so download "SuperOneClick" rooter
which can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1285894
#4: After doing this you need to download a rom of your choice and copy it
to your sdcard and flash it using CWM recovery which you just flashed.
Once you get done doing these steps successfully you will be good to go and will be able
to flash any custom rom found in this forum. You will also have the CWM recovery too.
(you will be able to go back and flash the stock rom too)
Good Luck

*It will hang up at #6 of Super One Click when it does this unplug your phone go into settings uncheck and check usb debugging again then plug back in. At this point it will continue with the root. It will send a test to your phone and you may or may not have to click allow for Superuser.**
listen to raptor7056, he is showing you the right way. btw just read the instructions carefully next time bro
^ yup, on step 6 pull the plug, uncheck and recheck USB debugging and plug it back in. I know it's weird but that's the way to do it
Edit: I see I'm a minute late
Actually, I just realized he said his phone won't boot. If that is the case, he cant go in and uncheck and recheck USB debugging.
Not sure what exactly you do from this point, but if you have clockworkmod installed then maybe you can try this method

Does this phone allow you to reboot and go to home screen after you have attempted to root? On my old captivate if you were in odin and were doing anything that required being in download mode, if you unplugged the usb cable while it was doing it's thing, you were hosed..... everyone keeps saying here that you can unplug from one click, reboot, make changes then go back in download after.... am I understanding that right???????

Yes you are understanding it right, but S1C is not odin so unplugging it will not "hose" your phone.

It's not the homescreen. Hold down both the volume up and volume down buttons and plug in the usb cable. This should get you to download mode. Then flash the package from the link to go back to stock. Then try again if you wish.

The easiest thing at this point would to be just to flash to to stock rom, it's simple enough
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

Its not finding a page for this link. ^
I have no idea what page that was supposed to be, but page ids are 8 digits, not 4
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.

Sounds like you flashed something in Odin that was not for your phone. You probably need to get it J-tagged to get it fixed. Check out mobiletechvideos.com
It's like $50 dollars for the service, they'll J-tag your phone and flash the correct bootloader.

Since the phone will turn on, and initiate the boot process, it should be able to recover it yourself. Jtag is for true hard bricks, which your phone is NOT.
Please give a full description of what led up to your problem. What firmware was on the phone before, what did you attempt to flash, and anything that you can think of that would provide any additional information for trouble shooting. Also, a link to the firmware you tried to flash.

To get the SGH-I777 into download mode, continuously hold down both volume buttons (but not the power button) while plugging in the usb cable.

I put my i777 on download mode by removing the battery and putting it back. Hold the volume button down and connect the USB charger wait for the buttons to flash and disconnect the charger while holding the volume down button. If that doesn't work nothing will.

Try this:
Pull the battery and leave it out.
Hold down volume button and plug in the USB cable. (PC will supply the power)
This should boot the phone into download mode.
If the above works to get into download mode, do the following:
Download the I777 secondary bootloader .tar from the Download Repository. See the link in my signature.
Unplug the phone (to shut off)
Open Odin v1.85 on screen of pc.
Enter download mode as above.
When connected put the secondary bootloader in the PDA slot in Odin and flash.

I just recently got my SGS2 (i777) and decided to root it. Unfortunately I got the root from another site (dumb move) and today the phone went into a reboot loop. I can connect it and get it into download mode, but everytime I try to flash back to the stock rom, or anything else (bootloader) Odin says connection failed, unable to open COM Port. I know it connects because it installs the drivers for the phone. Can someone MUCH smarter that me assist with this one?

can you interrupt the bootloop by trying to get to recovery (holding VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER until recovery menu appears) and then go to backup-restore and restore a backup? That's what I would try. IF that does not work, I would reinstall the drivers for andoid on your pc --even though you had them working (presumably) once before. After reinstalling the drivers then odin should (may!) see the phone and work.
good luck

If you flash a official release from sammobile it should not increase your binary count, thus leaving your warranty intact. It is when you root or flash a custom Rom your binary will increase.
Worst case you need to use triangleaway if counter increases

If anyone's interested, I had to return the phone under warranty where they replaced the main PBA.
The combination to get to recovery is this (for future reference)
Vol-up + home + power button. Once galaxy s 3 logo pops up quickly let go of the power button and hold in again then let all three go once in recovery.

You guy´s soft bricked your phones thats why u dont get any where re-flashing, but heres something worth trying without risking anything!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JUST GET YOUR SAMMY STOCK ROM FIRST FROM THEIR SITE
Use this Odin version >android.gs/download-odin-1-85/.
Above the country code and you can know the three-letter code which applies to your country. Now look for the date of release and select an appropriate update release for your phone.
Step-4 Rebooting
Reboot by holding Home, Volume Down and Power buttons. Remember you need to hold the Volume Down button and not the Volume Up button as in the first step. You will get into the download mode. So, you phone is now ready to get the firmware via USB.
The phone will flash a warning about the dangers involved. You should not worry as you are putting the firmware back on the phone.
On the computer, now unzip the Samsung firmware folder you downloaded from the official website. Now extract the .md5 file.
Now open Odin, select.md5 file in the 'PDA' section of Odin.
Make sure that Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time is ticked.
Connect your Galaxy S3 to your computer via the USB lead. Odin will automatically detect the phone and a pop-up message will show. Now start the process of transferring the file.
Step-5
Wait for the file to download. Odin will show 'PASS!' in the box once the transfer is successful. And the phone will then, reboot.
If it hangs on the Samsung logo, don't worry reboot into the recovery mode by holding down Home, Volume Up and Power buttons. Wipe the data/factory reset and reboot.
This will in all chances bring your phone to a functioning mode. Sign in and start working.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The extent of you phone being bricked may vary, but the symptoms are often the same -- a reboot loop, switching itself off after the Samsung logo or never getting into the operating system. As long as you can get into the recovery mode, there is hope to recover the Samsung Galaxy S3,
no success
Hi guys,
your solutions are great but in my case it didnt help at all.
My phone still stucks at logo. Only download mode is possible, but odin wanted a pit file always when i tried to download the sammy firmware rom. After all i even downloaded the pit file GT-I9300_mx_20120329.pit. But even with the pitfile and Re-Partitioning it didnt function at all.
My SGS3 T-Mobile can not start at all.

i will try it out. First i have to download 859MB !!!
I will tell you if it was successfull.
Thank you very much
I have used the tutorial for rooting my phone, it goes through the first stage on pda flashing an insecure rom, phone reboots and i have the yellow triangle, then the phone just locks on black screen, tried running the easy root software, it connects to the phone then stops.
I can enter recovery mode and tried a different kernal but still same problem, Thanks in advance for any help.

download, unzip the downloaded file until u get a tar.md5 file
got o recovery and wipe data/factory reset (and format system, preload, data and cache if on a custom recovery, check under mount and storage)
reboot to download mode, plug your phone
open odin, click pda, select the tar.md5 file, hit start and wait.
if the phone does boot after flashing, wait a minute, reboot to recovery, wipe data/factory reset and reboot (even if the device boots at first time, i advise u to do this wipe anyway)
back working again, couldnt get into the recovery mode, tried the up volume home and power, also searched and tried the up down power also, all i want to do is unlock my phone lol

phone is working, but want it unlocking....cannot access recovery mode, tried Remove battery, and press vol up, home, and power. Release the power when samsung galaxy s2 appears but keep holding vol up and home.
phone it's working fine and you can't get into recovery mode?
Keep trying that combo, do it while the device is off, press it till you get there.
And why the hell do you want to get into recovery in order to unlock the phone?

the guy above recommended i go to recovery and delete all data, so thats what i was trying to do, he also helped get my phone back working, is it possible to unlock without rooting ?
Yes, by getting the unlock code from your carrier.
I suggest you read a couple of threads before you attempt rooting it.
Sent from the little guy
i bought the phone on my carrier from ebay, i have now changed carrier but like the phone.
Root it is.
Did you get into recovery yet?
Sent from the little guy
