my brother tried to install a skyrocket rom on his phone and now it doesn't boot. No Download Mode / No Recovery / No vibration/bootup even while holding down the power button. Is this phone screwed? Please help ASAP!

Try holding vol up and down and plugging the USB cable in while connected to your pc. If that don't get you in download mode then your phone may be bricked.

Maybe a bit more info? Skyrocket roms are totally safe to flash and do not cause bricks... so what else did your brother do?

Search on eBay for t989 repair. There's a JTAG repair service you can send the phone to fix it for around $40

Nothing much; just the typical rom download and CWM flash of the rom after a TDJ Super Wipe. When he rebooted the phone, no response what so ever!
Think T-Mobile can help him?

If he super wiped after, he deleted your rom. Put a t989 ROM on your SD card , flash in recovery, your good!!

How are you trying to access recovery? While the phone is turning on hold on to both volumne rockers, the Samsung logo pops up, let go. Unless there is more info, you should still be able to access recovery and download mode. Skyrocket roms, by themselves, will not brick a T989

Sounds bricked to me, if theres no life/vibration or anything.
send it to someone and jtag it and it should work

Maybe he broke the power button or the battery is dead and can't be charged? There's nothing you've done so far that should've resulted in a bricked phone unless your brother isn't telling you everything.

He must have done something wrong flashing then! Maybe a corrupt superwipe rom was downloaded; he was going from a gingerbread rom to jb. Oh well ...he has warranty left on it. Hopefully he can get an exchange
Thanks all for your help! Much appreciated!
find a repair center near you and ask if they have a riff box. if yes, ask them if they do JTag Ressurection. If you cant find one, google 'jtag ressurection' and look for a store called mtech service out in toronto. you can fedex them your phone and they do the repair for $50. i just hard bricked my tmo sgs2 and im sending mine out to them. my dumb ass decided to flash a .pit alongside a modem in odin. i did ALOT of research on this and they are the closest jtag repair shop to me in boston, mass. i couldnt even find a mail in center in the usa, unless you choose to go through samsung or tmobile.

What exactly did you try to do? And try a jig.. If you cant get to download mode or recovery most likely sending to samsung/JTAG service can fix it up for you

so when you reboot your device it goes back to downloading mode directly???
becasue when i try same thing like you .. my phone was rebooting but it got stuck on the Samsung Logo.
what i know is ... you can you Volume up + home button+on.off button to go to recovery mode
so when you press all 3 together and see Samsung Galaxy on device .. release them... and it will go to recovery mode...
for me it works like that.
i am newbie to Android... so i am telling you this from my personal information.
give it a try if you feel like
thanks

Well you can only get into download mode. So you need to install a custom recovery using odine. CWM is short for clockwork mod recovery. Find a how to and install cwm using odine.
Another custom recovery is TWRP. I like using TWRP. Has a nice touch interface.

If you have a computer download a Rom of your liking then install meaning find the file on your sd card then flash it? I recommend something close to the stock Rom then try new ones btw make a back up of your stock rom!!!!!! P.s. Look at YouTube for tutorials on how to?

To be more clear.
You said you can't boot into recovery. You can only boot into download mode. What download mode means is that you have to install cwm from a computer using odine. You connect your phone to a computer using a USB cable. Boot your phone into download mode. Open odine on your PC select the cwm odine file and push it to your phone. Disconnect your phone from your pc. Then you can put a ROM on your exSDcard and boot into recover and install the ROM.
Do a search on xda on how to install cwm using odine. I'm not going to write how to do it here cause you can search and do it your self. Good luck

Just some theories... Make sure that you don't have kies open while running odin. If that is ot the case.
Try the extreme and flash the rom trough kies itself
Other than that I might sense a sds symptom from what google says((

We are not specific and are not spoon feeding you because this not done that way. You HAVE to spend time and learn what is what. The answers you need and the help you need are already here. If you're expecting download links and screenshots you shouldn't be modifying your phone. The whole point of this community is to learn and share the knowledge - not spoon feed.
Go to the TWRP thread, read up and download the tar that you need to flash through odin. Look for the MJ5 bootloader (hint: look up Wanam's ROM thread, that's one of the many places). After you got these two, boot to TWRP and flash the ROM.
Finally, as long as your phone gets into download mode, it's not bricked. And you got to do something incredibly foolish to make it not boot into bootloader. That said, it would be prudent to learn and act rather than blindly execute what you read - I said the same thing in not so many words in my reply to you in the DN3 ROM thread.

If you have used ODIN before to flash anything using this computer you are trying with now, you don't need to reinstall the drivers.

Ok. Thank you very much . There is one problem. I think you guys didnt understand that the computer finds the phone but Odin doesnt i think i must install the drivers for odin to find it. Can someone tell me if ican install the drivers while i am in download mode and how am i supposed to do it ? maybe theres a tutorial somewhere. I am really sorry for not being good with this. But its because i bought the phone already rooted. I know i already took lots of your time but i know how to do everything accept odin doesnt find my phone and thats the biggest problem.
