HELP in endless boot loop first day with phone

really struggling here. first day coming from the evo. i rooted, backed up with clockwork and flashed this caulkin rom. i am in an endless boot loop somhow. problem is i cant seem to be able to get into clockwork now and fix things. at first when i held volume and power it went into ODIN downloading mode which i am completely unfamiliar with
please help, how can i get into clockwork to reinstall my backed up rom? how do i get out of this loop? thanks.

I have the same problem I think. Its the "Android" letters or the 4G sprint thing?

My friend asking for help here is not a problem but coming from the Evo like I did you know that there are ways out of just about anything. Like the poster above said is 100% correct. Instead of sitting here waiting for answers use Google, use the stickies remember what you did prior on your Evo. Now for my part of helping you out, its vol up + power will take you to recovery. Or here's a thought plug it in your pc and use adb.. How about the command adb reboot recovery..
Now to me if you read up on the phone research threads before you went in on it then these trouble shooting tips would be second nature. Sorry if I sound like a **** but too many of us are in here messing with phones and have no clue what to do if we screw up and especially when there are a million HELP ME THREADS....
Good luck and hope it works out for you...

Just thought I would check..are you holding volume up and power long enough? It will show the SGS2 screen twice before going to recovery

This was my problem you need to hold them at the same time for waaaaay longer than needed on the evo.
Once i got in clockwork it was smooth sailing but there was no way for me to know these subtle differences

That was kinda my point. If you did a little research or better yet QbKing has a million videos you would of know this. Once again my bad but too many of us are just panicking and posting questions that are clearly answer in these threads or are really simple to figure out... Glad you figured it out though...

uhoh...blend to cm9 brick?

Was attempting to update my dads phone to the latest cm9 over at rootz ...hes running blend ics, i booted into recovery and flashed cm9 and gapps and rebooted to black screen with only the blue led? I know your supposed to have stock cwm and i flashed in rouge is this my issue? No recovery, download mode, or even a bootloop just a black screen with a solid blue led...:-( im not terribly worried as im a tech at an indirect store and ordered him a new one cas his gps is wonky but i was like 2 seconds from doing the same thing to mine. Am i hard bricked? I dont have a jig, is that my only hope?
Thanks

So you powered off, held volume down and power and you can't get into download?

I'd try a jig if you can get one, or they actually are pretty easy to make, I made one to have on hand and it's nice to have. But it sounds like you could get a phone swap before a jig would be shipped

Indeed. When i hold vol up and power or vol down and power, the blue led blinks once and stays solid. I no longer have access to either dl or recovery

This is how you get your phone working after you brick it!!!!
If all u see is the blue light of death.... take your phone to a REAL sprint store... the ones that have the tech support on site, tell them you got an over the air update, went to bed, woke up and ur phone was like that. a jig wont work. they are not going to give you a hard time. as long as your phone is in decent condition... they will charge u 35$ and give u a new epic touch 4g. it happened to me. i dont have insurance, it is covered under the manufactures warranty. so nothing to fear. just have 35$ ready. give thanks

I have a friend that is also a tech. He said the same thing. As long as you can't power up, that means they can't either. It should be covered.

I suggest that you watch Qbking77 videos before flashing any roms your unsure about because he said you first have to install CM7 on it first then install CM9.

I think this is a great suggestion but the only problem is people seem to not want to read OP's, read threads thoroughly or even want to watch videos. Unfortunately its easier to ask repetitive questions and sometimes just leap into things with out doing proper research.
Hey if I had a 200 phone which is 350 or more on the streets with no insurance. You can best believe I am being careful and reading everything twice before I start flashing...lol

Whats the trick for a Hard Brick??

I can get Qhsusb_dload to show up from time to time on my PC when it connects. but I went to try and flash the Slim Rom from the original android section and it bricked my phone. no screen light up or anything. no LED flashing. i just get Qhsusb_dload when i connect to a PC.
What tricks can i do to get odin to see this.

You need an attitude check. This was posted in Q&A, he had a question and needs help. If this was posted in the wrong forum, I could MAYBE see this kind of attitude but not here. You were helpful in giving him a link to get his device repaired, but the rest of it was just uncalled for.

I did research and no one gave a straight answer anywhere. i googled countless places. a lot of them said to do these button combinations and none worked. some say the only way to do it is through a jig. as you say Jtag. i do everything the way i usually do it by reading the posts before flashing.. idk what went wrong here.

As far as I know, he is right about JTAG being your only repair option. This may sound like an obvious question, but I have seen this happen before. Are you sure you were downloading from the right forum? (i.e. not accidentally downloading a ROM meant for another carrier.)

I'm kind of curious how this happens. Never heard of bricking from simply flashing a rom.

If rom is for another carrier or the international version of the S3 (i believe the I9300) then it'll brick it quick.

I thought the i9300 is the sprint version. i had looked it up... but oh well. I did more research i missed one step which may have caused it, or my download corrupted. But my next option is to find someone with a Jtag in my area.

Sprint is the SPH-L710. So yeah.. may have flashed the wrong rom.. Always double check.. and if your in doubt.. ASK! lol

Use a jig. Will boot up into download mode. You need to use Odin and flash stock. Qbking video is really helpful. Good luck.

Yup you flashed the wrong ROM. I had this happen on my Evo 3D, I don't remember which ROM it was but someone had linked to it from the CDMA forum and I took their word for it being a CDMA ROM. It was GSM. Fortunately I was still able to load hboot and loaded clockwork mod via fast boot. I'm sure you've tried going into download mode or recovery a hundred times by now, but one hundred and one wouldn't hurt. Make sure you are pressing the right buttons in the right combination and letting go at the right time. Honestly I think the SIII is a pain to get into D/L or recovery mode. It always takes me a few tries. If you can do that, you won't need to JTAG it. Good luck!

[Q] Mobile Odin made Brick

I attempted to flash newest CWM and got a brick. The phone will not boot into any mode and I pulled the battery and held the three keys and cannot get it to boot into any mode. Is there a way to flash somehow back to stock and start over?

If you can't detect any life at all from the phone after attempting to charge it or boot into recovery or download mode then I'm sorry but your phone is now hard bricked.. There is no way to fix it unless you get a jaytag repair through mobiletechvideos.com

I ordered a warranty replacement but am without a phone for a few days so I am really down that this small app was able to hard brick the darn thing. Makes no sense but I will never use Mobile ODIN ever again! Odd that no warning were there on the thread to download the tool.

I do not think I did it with wrong files. I made a tar from the img file I got from clockworkmod.com so I am sure it was clean. I am wondering if perhaps it screwed up because I had changed build.prop to say the device was "Galaxy Nexus" for Wallet to work properly. And maybe that mod I made confused it and somehow flashed something for a Nexus instead and that is why it wont function. If I had it to do again, I would have changed the build.prop back for few moments while I changed the recovery image. All of this was simply to update CWM to newest 6.0.2.8 since ROM Manager told me there was new one. I wish I had ignored it and just said no. Is there no way to hard reset this thing somehow with ODIN or a key combination that say a Samsung employee tool may "flash factory" to it? Seems odd I cannot fix this on my own. No tool nothing?

I've heard the wallet needs to be reset and all that before anything new is flashed.
I haven't flashed anything since the wallet, so I haven't looked into it yet.

Look for JTAG repair. If you can't even get it to turn on, that's what needs to be done.
It's not a home job - to tools cost several times more than the service and require more specialised knowledge.
If you can get it to turn on, look into making or buying a micro-usb jig - cheap and might work if you have time to mess around.

I am certain that is the reason I have hard brick. If I had changed build.prop....changed the recovery with mobile odin....then gone and changed it back afterwards...I am sure it would not have broken the phone. At any rate, I just will have to await warranty replacement since I get mixed readings about this MTV solution that costs almost 100 bucks.

No need to change it back. Once wallet is set up and your card activated, you can set your build.prop back to t999 and Wallet will still work perfectly, it only needs to say Nexus for the install/activation.

Again, if you simply change your build.prop back to the correct values for the T999 afyer you activate Google Wallet, the entire issue would be avoided and Mobile Odin should be safe to use. I know its too late for that for the OP, but hopefully someone somewhere can learn from this. :beer:

Need help - Probably Bricked S3

Hi all. I am pretty sure I bricked my wife's S3 when I tried to root it using the following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682 - has nothing to do with the tool kit, more like user error. I have rooted multiple past phones and my current note 2. I got to the odin part and it did it's thing but nevere rebooted to go to the next step. I cannot get into recovery, the computer doesn't recognize the phone now and the screen doesn't do anything. Any ideas? I am pretty sure I bricked it and will need to get a new phone for her.
Appreciate any help or confirmation of a new paper weight.

Does the device do anything at all when you try to power it on? What exact steps did you take when you attempted to root the device? If the phone does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, not even vibrate, then your looking at a hard brick. If it does vibrate and/or you can at least get to the splash screen, then it's a soft brick and stuck in a boot loop.

It does sound like it is bricked. In the future, never unplug the phone while Odin is flashing it. (Im assuming this is what you did?) Always wait until it says PASS, RESET, or FAIL. Sometimes it can hang for 20 or more minutes, but it should always eventually show one of those 3 results.
Just to be sure though. Pull the battery, then put it back in. Try to boot into Download Mode. Try to boot into Recovery. If you can get one of these you are probably not bricked. If you cannot get to either one, and you cannot boot normally, then I am afraid you are bricked.
This does not mean you need to buy a new phone however. What it needs is something called a JTAG fix. You can probably find several shops online that will do this for you, but the one that always gets mentioned around here is http://mobiletechvideos.com
Sorry to hear about your misfortune, but I hope this helps you. If you do get it fixed, next time I suggest rooting with the root66 method. It is much safer imo, at least I see a lot fewer problems with it.
Good Luck!

Thanks for the info. I did get the reset and waites for just over 15 minutes. Nothing was happening and I thought it was bricked so I did unplug it. When I used the same tool to root my N2 it took less than 5 minutes for the entire process.
I will check out the link. Appreciate your help! Thank you.

Thanks for getting back. He screen doesn't come on at all, but it does vibrate once after a battery pull and then nothing. I followed the steps and got to "reset" in odin where it was waiting for the phone to reboot and after 15+ minutes I thought "crap" bricked it. Unplugged, which I would screw it up which it did. I am going to look into the company DocHoliday77 mentioned below. Worth a shot as cheaper than buying another phone.
