The good news is that it's vibrating.So that might be a good sign.. Maybe try plugging it in to your computer and see if you can get it in to download mode (hold volume down+power)

Have you dropped it recently because the screen might have come partially disconnected from the phone and cause the screen to go off.. However I guess that doesn't explain the vibrating

If all else fails its still something you can check out.. It's easy to fix you just need a tiny screwdriver and to open it up and reconnect it...
If I was you I would try to get it in download mode long enough to flash.. It's almost instantaneous

It could be a hardware issue. in which case you could send it to Samsung for repair. But they might not want to cover the bill if they find out its rooted and running custom firmware.. Maybe try to fully brick it first so they can't see your flash counter

might be out of the question, its locked on tmobiles network, only works on att... lol in other words "blacklisted IMEI" so........ im kinda on my own here...
This exact thing happened to me.
I couldn't ODIN or went into recovery because the phone wouldn't stay on long enough.
It would turn on for a few seconds and died and would constantly vibrate.
I tried JIG to force into download mode. Didn't work.
I tried JTAG service. Didn't work.
I was lucky enough that the phone was still under warranty so I had it replaced. But I think your phone is as good as gone.
You can always try JTAG (the only service that MIGHT bring your phone back to life) and hope that you're luckier than I was.

I suggest that you send it for JTAG service anyway. If they can't fix it, they'll refund your money less shipping charge so you're only out a few bucks.
If they could fix it, then you obviously could sell the phone for a little bit more. Considering that you're already willing to cut your losses anyway, might as well give it another week or so. At least this way you know that you've tried absolutely EVERYTHING and know for sure that the phone is actually beyond fixing.
Or, you can try contacting this guy.
He's looking to buy a T989 motherboard. I'm assuming a "working" motherboard, but hey... you never know, right?
Good luck!!!! :fingers-crossed:

i tried searching but i have no idea what i could possibly be. i have a 8525 att branded with farias wm 6.1 ROM loaded along with the touchflo cube(just loaded today). anyways i was using wifi and recieved a call at the same time which usually seems insignificant but now the phone is doing nothing. no charging light no sounds no nothing. i thought it might be the screens flex cable at first but mabye a fried processer. ill admit i have some knowlege but not nearly enough i tried a hard reset but nothing...any help would be greatly appreciated.
hmm
Weird thing, but look at this post...
so basically attempt a reflash? mabye im just not thinking correctly but dont you need some form of life to perform one. i get no start up screens. so i cant get into the bootloader...or can i flash possibly without that. im on vacation at the moment so i wont get a chance to try anything computer based untill probably next week...thank you and thanks in advance for anything else.

Try to put your phone in download mode, using the key combination (volume up/volume down) at the same time, then plug in your USB cable that will put you in download mode, and then use Odin to flash Bubby stock kernel. If you have access to recovery, (volume up/volume down/power) and let go the power as soon you can see the Samsung logo, then just flash the last ROM you were using before your mistake. This is if you already have a ROM that you can flash via CWM in the SDCARD of your phone. If you don't have a CWM ROM in your SD Card ODIN is your best friend. Hope this can help you.

You can try to exchange calling Tmobile and tell them that something wierd happen to your phone, and you don't know what is going on. Don't tell them about the flashing; that happened to me one time with my Vibrant, and they exchanged no questions asked. No charges or fees. Hope this can help you.

You really don't know anything at all do you?
A jigg will only save you if download mode is accessible, when flashing anything ICS incorrectly or using CWM touch you could easily destroy your partition, this means no more boot, no more odin no nada. The emmc chip is a gonner except with j-tag. If you don't know anything, you shouldn't speak, a usb jigg is for soft brick, not hard brick hence the terminology soft brick (repairable) hard brick (unrepairable) read my thread before your screw yourself too. if you don't believe me just try it, and then test your lil fancy jigg then you can hit the thanks button for knocking some knowledge into you noob.

I'm quite surprised that i actually bricked. I've been downloading roms since i owned the thing. Always soft bricked with no issues. First time i tried to download Cyanogen mod. and boom, gone. I ordered a JiG to try out anyway. Will report back when i get it. Will try Jtag if it doesnt work. Thanks guys.

Yup. Screwed. I had the exact same problem. Josh at mobiletech gave it his best but it was something about the motherboard being ****d but hey, he did offer to do the replacement if I could find the part. But meh, I chalked it up, decided it was time for a contract/insurance (was using an e4gt flashed to cricket) and got my new one today and had AOKP running smooth 30 mins later
And!!! I have a fancy paperweight!

How is it even possible to get a complete brick by not flashing anything? Just wake up one morning and your phone doesn't turn on? Doesn't make any sense...
I have and the S1,2 &3 flashed 100's of ROMs and usually the only thing that can hard brick a Samsung is flashing a ROM/Kernel for another phone or a bad flash from ODIN.

You did something that youre not telling us because things dont just break randomly, and/or without cause 99% of the time.
I dont help people that try to act like "i dont know what happened, it just magically stopped working maybe a unicorn tampered with the motherboard while i was asleep" kind of nonsense.
The guys on here are trying to help you and youre not giving any information at all. So go and waste your money and buy batteries, service calls from a repair center.
But "i dont know maybe im missing something", and "i dont know what happened" is not an acceptable response from someone seeking help.
So go ahead and pulll out all the four letter words and insults, but until you start to pony up some good information your phone will be dead, and you can begin preparing it for its next stage of "life" which would be a desk decoration or christmas tree ornament

For like the past day or two my phone has been running extremely hot and the battery isnt charging like it normally does. Now it charges extremely slowly, if at all sometimes, and no the contacts are not dirty. I Tried charging it using USB and also wall outlet, ive tried changing the wall "brick" used to plug in my usb cord to higher and lower amperage and voltage but same problem. Now back to the heat problem, Ive tried switching up ROMs, kernels, ROM/kernel combinations just in case it was a kernel and/or ROM problem and same thing. Both problems happen with my 3800mAh extended battery and stock battery. Please if anyone knows anything about this or has any help its well appreciated.

Weird, dude. Well you close to being able to safely assume its not a software issue. But before ruling that out completely I would Odin back to stock; it really does make a difference. Also, can you tell me where the phone is getting the hottest at? Is it just the battery or is it somewhere else?

They may not care, but I personally would try to get back to stock not to chance it.
Also, I most definitely recommend fastboot over Odin. The only time I would use Odin, is if my USB port died and I wanted to get back to stock.
