Hello, I have sgh-t989d dead medium. after installing a rom it was black, not take, it does not vibrate, but if you recognize Odin, but not let me install or the CWrecovery or common rom. it is labeled in the process.
What other choice do I have? There is another program to flash that can revive?
Or I have to use some other option Odin did not see so far?
From already thank you very much

Look like ODIN is the only option for you.... Here is a instruction of how to ODIN back to stock rom
Good Luck, feel free to reply if you have anymore questions or concern
if thanks for the tip but my problem is that no lights or download mode or cwm, but if I connect well off the PC COM port is listed, meaning that detects somehow Odin, but when I put the rom it is labeled in the process and can be so all day, unfinished charge ROM.
If anything happens it agradese

So can it boot into download mode? It kind of look like your phone battery is dead. Try plug in the phone and boot it up and see if there response.
no, not enter download mode, and the battery is charged and, if so some time was wrong, it would be rare that stop walking from one day to another, also have another battery. There may be another option to revive ODNI ??

Hi XDA,
I've searched in many threads but i can't find an anwser.
I've bricked my Galaxy Gio when i flashed a custom kernel. It was the kernel in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319816
Now it does nothing, I can't boot in any mode, not in download mode, not in recovery mode...
I have android 2.3.3 Gingerbread.
Is there any way to unbrick or is my phone just an expensive decoration now.
Thanks in Advance.
Hi !!!
same new here
This ll work in some cases
Hope this will work in your device as well
Pull the battery to kill the boot loop (or whatever is hosed up), put the phone into downloading mode and re-flash the stock ROM.
Free to try...
Thanks for quick reply but i can't go into download mode as i said. Also my phone is just totally off and won't boot at all. My pc also doesn't detect it when it is plugged in.

If not even adb detects it, i'm pretty sure you're buggered, mate.
did you try and leave the battery out for some 10 min or more?
If adb does not detect the phone after that, then it seems to be a brick for real.
Is your phone stop at the "samsung" when you turn on your phone?
If is this,it's very easy to unbrick
One easy procedure which you might want to try with no guarantee it'll work:
-Remove the battery, microSD and SIM from the phone.
-Prepare the Odin software and your ROM on a known working system
-Connect the phone to the computer with the USB cable.
-With one hand, simultaneously hold Volume down, home and power.
-With your other hand, put the battery in the phone.
I was able to get Odin to detect an otherwise bricked phone this way. I was however unable to get further than the "setup connection" step. Maybe your outcome will be better.

Yes this way usually works. I've tested this way.
that worked for me to on a brick when it didnt even went on, no recovery, download mode etc, after waiting 2 weeks and trying to repair it myself I nearly throw it away, and then suddenly it went into download mode for about 1 or 2 seconds, wich told me the battery whasn't working.. so I started to charge the battery, and hoped it would boot, but it didn't.. using that method given above, I could get into download mode again, and flashes a new stock ROM. now I still have my phone, working.

Yesterday i rooted and tried to install a Rom and used Rom manager to go into recovery mode. I thought you had to do the down+home+power and now when I try to do anything it wont work power button 20 sec , power+home , up/down+power+home,nothing.When i tried plug it into the computer it makes that sound when something failed to connect to the pc. When i tried holding the power button i hear the sound of the device successfully connect to the pc but when i look theres no phone on the computer and when i let go of the power button it stops. Any help would be very much appreciated and i will never do anything to risk my device being broken again...
What did you install? Link the ROM or at least the name of the ROM.

Did you modify your build.prop?
Can you still access the download mode? If yes try to flash back a stock rom with odin.
Or remove the battery and try again to boot up in download mode.

Try a different usb slot sometimes a usb slot may malfunction I had that problem.
Also don't use a usb extender hub if you are it may screw with the voltage.
a new usb I'm sure you've heard that one but this has the least chance of working because you the s3 makes the noise which means the usb works
Try a new computer and check that you have Kies installed
Try to restart the laptop that also helps
Hope I helped you out

Unfortunately, I have this exact same problem. I'm really scared that I may have bricked my device...
The last time my phone was working, I simply updated my phone to CM10's latest update for the phone. Everything was working perfectly fine. All I did was download the latest rom from get.cm for my sgs3.
Then I read online that this new 4.1.2 rom came out. As a new member XDA won't allow me to post the link of the rom...but you can find it in the Original Development Thread of the T-Mobile SGS3. Slim-i9300-2.7.0-OFFICIAL is the name of the rom [I copied it directly].
After making a backup of my current rom, installing this rom and installing the new gapps, I rebooted the device and nothing has worked since... [this happened about 12 hours ago].
Now, when I take out the battery and plug the charger in, the notification light becomes solid red. But nothing works...I can't go into download mode, I can't go into recovery. I knew this immediately when the phone did not vibrate after me holding down the power button for a few minutes.
The red notification light only turns on when I plug in the phone when the battery is out. If I put the battery in, after a few moments it goes away. I honestly thought maybe the battery was just dead...but I left it plugged in all night and I still can't do anything with the phone.
Please, any help for me and whtnld would be much appreciated...
@OP
Did you mod the build.prop for any reason? (Google wallet maybe?)
If you did and then tried to update/install recovery through Rom Manager, it may have tried to install the wrong recovery on the wrong partition, resulting in a hard brick.

You flashed an intl rom. Hard bricked. Need JTAG repair or replace unit.
I was about to say, isn't the i9300 the intl version? the tgh-t999 is the TMOUS version.
You have to let go of the power button to get into recovery.

Easy Way to find out if it's hard bricked is to connect your phone to pc... If pc displays qhsusb - I forget what else then you are hard bricked and need to jtag fix it which should run you around 60 buxs. Sorry bud if that's the case but next time don't flash anything i9300 if you have a t999

Can you boot into download mode? Volume Down + home + power button?
Sent from my SGH-T999
Rom manager is too buggy imo. Goo manager and TWRP recovery is the way to go next time.
Ok, so i rooted my phone on my mac from galaxys3root.com
I then decided i wanted to root my phone from windows instead as i thought it was a more stable way (new to rooting)
so i went through the unrooting steps on that same website. downloaded triangle away and reset the binary.
step 2 was to put into download mode, so i help vol down, home and power button. screen went black and thats it.
now phone wont turn on, and wont go into download mode.
am i screwed?
So you were already rooted, then unrooted and tried to root again? Why? As long as the phone is rooted you can flash ROMs regardless of computer, as long as u can get all the files onto ur phone to flash in recovery

Then sorry, nothing I can help you with
I suggest taking it to AT&T. That was the only sign of life I had after I dropped my rooted phone, they replaced it under warranty. To be clear, my phone was under two out-of-warranty conditions, and it was replaced because the cause of failure isn't so readily apparent in this case. Just say you don't know why it won't turn on. Too easy.
mag7ear appears
When plugged into my computer, it says
found new hardware QHSUSB_DLOAD
does that mean anything
I think that means it's dead, though I could be mistaken. I'm surprised no one recommended finding a USB jig. They're supposed to force the phone into download mode when nothing else will. It's not clear if that would work in this case, but they're extremely cheap.

Before you try sending it away, I would try downloading MSKIP's Galaxy S3 toolkit. Make sure you have all the relevant drivers and see if the toolkit is able to see it and kick it into download mode. You can find the download link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1633
There are very clear, explicit instructions provided with the toolkit - I would also take the time to view wwjoshdew's video, very helpful. If you are able to get the phone into download mode, re-flash a stock, rooted rom from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426
Not sure what else to tell you, but that's what I would try. Hope it helps.

I would like to apologize in advance if I posted in the wrong category (I think it's the right category). As the title says I have done a mega wipe with my Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-I747) and completely removed the OS along with the System Recovery and everything. It is basically just the phone and nothing inside. When I plug it in the computer, my windows OS makes a sound signaling it detected a device but then nothing happens. I do see a red light turning on my Galaxy S3, I think it says it's charging. Tried accessing the recovery mode, but no luck.... So my question is...is there any way to reflash an OS? Thank you so much XDA!!
If you can get to download mode, you can use Odin to flash a rom. Why would you wipe the recovery partition?
You need some JTAG action.

Hi My friend this is happened for me b4 and this what I did
1- take your battery out for about 5 Minutes.
2- Download Odin and The firmware orginal no rooting no custom recovery ** I started with ICS from Samsung-update.com***
3- Start Odin Don't add firmware yet.
4- Put your phone in Download mode by holding Volum down+ home+power and when the screen come push volum up to go to download mode.
5- Now connect your phone to PC and Odin will see your phone on which com.
6- Now add the Firmware by clicking on PDA when it say ready just click start on odin.
7- You are back on orginal Rom ( No root or Custom recovery) and you can go from there.
Good Luck
IF I Help Hit Thank Botton

JTAG repair is done to your phone by an expert with special equipment. You would need to bring your phone to them or ship it off to be fixed. Google '(your city) Jtag repair' . No boot but still having a sound from connecting to PC is a good sign that your bootloader is corrupted.
If the computer makes as noise when you plug it in, try for download mode... Even If the screen of the phone doesn't turn on try to connect and use Odin, sometimes Odin will pick it up...

Dear all. I have a note II that has gone wild. The phone was working fine but then I received a note 4 and put the note 2 aside. Then I was trying to install root and was able to do so by installing TWRP V2.8.3 and everything went smooth and the phone was rooted. I then used the phone for a while but switched to the note 4 after. Now, 5 months after, I wanted to check something on my olde note II. I charged the phone and switched it on but it was stuck on the Galaxy note II screen I rebooted then rebooted but still the same. I went in the TWRP recovery to try to do something but I was not able to because it says that it cant mount storage, cant mount efs, cant mount data, cant mount cache and cant mount system.
Then I have decided to install the firmware image from zipped file but that did not work as it sees that the internal and external storags are 0 and cant mount them.
Then I opted to try and install the firmware PDA through Odin but that also did not work as Odin was not able to detect the phone. Now I'm clueless and not sure what to do the only thing I'm able to do is boot in TWRP recovery and that is all. Can any one help.
My phone had the latest official rom from samsung the 4.4.2
Please help
classic, just search. there is a thread with tutorial how to get your n2 back to life. you could also have sds, but try different odin and flash with pit
Ok now I'm in a worse situation. I have managed to get to the download mode and connected it to ODIN and tried to flash with the stock rom but at the end of the writing process it failed and started to get a message on the phone to connect my device to kies and try again. I tried that but did not do anything. Then I tried Odin again but this time I unticked the auto reboot. then clicked start. The same thing happened as before and writing failed now though my phone is blank it does not show anything and it does not want to turn on and no LED that is turning on nor the charging icon. I searched the net and someone suggested that the battery is damaged. I replaced the battery but still no go. Please I really need to get that phone back alive. I think I bricked it. any ideas or directions to help me with this annoying case. I cant even boot to recovery nor download please help

As I said when I remove the battery and insert it back the phone remains blank no response to any button pressed.
What I did is that my phone was stuck on opening screen samsung screen. Then someone suggested to flash it with the stock rom. So I went to Sammobile site and downloaded the latest firmware. I tried to install it to my phone using ODIN and just before the end. ODIN failed. I tried it the second time and the same happened. then the third time I read that I have to untick auto reboot. I did and tried ODIN for the 3rd time and on the third trial I got the same fail message and then I wanted to boot into download mode for the forth time but this time the phone went dead and not responding to any button press. I hope that this explains the situation
Hmmm.. That Sounds really tricky.. Never saw a Device before thats so bricked.. When really nothing worked from this Forum may you let an expert give a look on your Phone, i know some official Samsung shops, maybe they can help..

No worries bro. At least you are trying. I have never seen this before either and I'm stumped and where I'm I dont think I can find any samsung pro shop.
