What about download mode (volume down, home button, power button)? Does ODIN detect your phone in download mode?

I can go into download mode but Odin nor PC detects the phone.. but Detects Galaxy star pro.. so the cable/ports/drivers are okay

[Q] 5830I cant get into download mode. pls help

HI there,
I can start my 5830I normally and everything works fine.
I can get to the recovery mode, by vol.+/home/pwr, and everything there works fine
When I vol.+/vol.-/pwr, I got a black screen (the backlight LED is on), and no download mode.
The vol.+/vol.-/pwr used to work and I had flahsed my 5830I a few times. Then I used CWM 5.0.2.6 to bakcup my phone and did one restore. Then I cant get into download mode anymore.
I could connect my phone to computer using SDK. I can use adb reboot recovery to reboot the phone to recovery
But if I use adb reboot bootloader, the phone just boots normally.
I fear that my bootloader has somehow damaged, either by CWM or by my last flash (using odin 1.83, I flashed also the bootloader file and with re-partation checked).
I wonder how I can fix this problem and get into the download mode. I can now use my phone normally and the current system seems to be quite fine. But I still want to have the chance to flash.
Thanks a lot!
Reboot bootloader does nothing because the phone doesn't have an accessible bootloader
This was sent from a Galaxy Ace. Problem?

Try Power+Home in case you flashed S5830's CWM recovery.

I didn't flash any recovery. I just restored my own back up using CWM.
"CWM 5.0.2.6 "
Maybe you used wrong CWM not for yours S5830i but for S5830 D/B etc
Use only this CWM ClockWorkRec5830i.zip

Try this method
Try this:
1.
Download multiloaderx_v565
2.
Start your phone normally...
3.
When phone started:
Hold down Home key and in multiloader press "port search".

Stop spamming the board =) Or else no one will help u :/
First check it's model number. GT-I9100G, GT-I9100, GT-I9100T, ..........etc
Download Stock Firmware from sammobile.com for your S2 model specific version...
Put your mobile in to Odin mode.
Download and Run Odin on PC.
Connect mobile to PC using USB cable.
Select PDA section on Odin. Select downloaded stock firmware.
Flash & leave rest to Odin!
Phone will be back to working mode. Next time root before flashing custom ROM!

When the phone turns on it'll write the model number. then search sammobile.com or checkfus for that model number's firmware. download and go into odin mode.
a simple google search would be enough, don't need to spam the entire board

[Q] Bricked my Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830i)

Hello,
I tried to reinstall a custom rom but I forgot to install it with CWM so it was installed with the default Android recovery. After the ZIP was installed I rebooted my phone but now it doesn't get any further than the Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830i logo. I tried to boot in recovery and download mode but both of them doesn't work. I hope some of you can help me. I bricked my phone before but then I could get into download mode but now I don't.
Thanks a lot

Try the following guide to see if you can force open Download Mode through odin mode. Here is the link,
How to unbrick Samsung Galaxy Ace
This guide was meant for Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 and hence the Download Mode key combination is different. So make sure the change the Download Mode key combination to your own device. If you can force open the Download Mode this way, then you can try installing the stock rom. Do post the result. Hope I Helped

Thanks for your help but it didn't work for me. My pc can't find the phone. And I installed the drivers several times. I also tried a program to force my phone into download mode but the program also doesn't recognize the phone.

As you can't enter the Recovery Mode and Download Mode, you have pretty much hard-bricked your phone. Since the above method didn't work, then you can try the USB Jig (not always guaranteed to work). If USB Jig did work, then it will force open the Download Mode so you can flash stock rom back using odin. If USB Jig doesn't work either, then your last option is to consult the Service Center. Do post the result. Hope I Helped

Thanks a lot! I can get my phone in download-mode now by pressing volume up and down plus the lock key. Normally it's lock key plus home button plus the volume down key but that didn't work but this did!! I can't say how much I should thank you! You saved my life.
THANKS

S3 Stuck on Samsung Logo

S3 Stuck on Samsung Logo
Hey guys, i was using a custom ROM and i flashed the stock ROM with odin but my phone got stuck on Samsung logo. Then i remembered i forgot to enable USB debugging. Could it because of that? and my volume buttons are not working so i cant go into download or recovery mode and o tried using adb, device not found. Im thinking about going into download mode with an USB jig and flash the stock ROM with odin again. Do you think it will work? Thanks*

similar thing happened to me but my aim was to install back to n00t kitkat 4.4.4
you could try flash it again if it doesnt work you could get twrp and flash a custom rom (if you want to) that saved my s3 from getting stuck on samsung logo

you need to get your phone in downloading mode so first of all turn off your phone and then
press HOME + VOL DOWN + POWER BUTTON HOLD IT then you will see something about customroms and some other text in green. now plug in your phone and Odin Should recognise it, then you can flash twrp on it (.tar format)
To get twrp just search "twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar " (without quotes) and then you should find some results.
How to flash TWRP
once twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar is downloaded go on odin and click PDA and navigate to twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar and click start and your all done
How to get into Recovery
HOME + VOL UP + POWER BUTTON HOLD IT FOR 2 SECONDS
