I had a similar problem as most phones in Canada seem to have Download/Recovery mode disabled, and here is what worked for me.
Grab something like One Click Un Root (all models), and click one click un root (obviously phone has to be on and plugged into the computer).
This should automatically reboot you into Recovery Mode!
All you have to do is "wipe data/factory default" or something like that (should be the third option).
As it states, you will loose all your data, but at least you will have a functionning phone!
did it work?
Hi. I have similar problem. Can anybody give instruction what can I do?
I have this problem too. Please help somebody
Add me to the list. Bell Galaxy S, went to unlock my phone the screen went black. Now it will not boot into the OS, the galaxy S splash screen displays then nothing. The menu and back button light up, thats all. ****[email protected]@
I have not rooted or anything.
Of course my download mode does not work.. Going to try this one click root thing if I can find it.
NOT HAPPY
This is not working. Probably because the phone is not in USB debugging mode as I can't change it... Is there any other way to get the phone into recovery mode?
**** me
i had the same thing happen to me the other day with my bell galaxy s and my phone wont do the 3 button combo trick. i left my phone plugged in to a wall charger for a while until the back of the phone became a little warm. i pulled the battery and then left the power cord plugged in and put the battery back in. i held the volume down and enter button until the battery charging indicator showed up, then i also pressed and held the power button until the boot animation started (this is the blue moving swirl and music, not the galaxy s splash scree) and then i let go of the power button. it took a few attempts at this before it actually worked, but eventually it will go into download mode at which time you can open the odin app, then plug in the usb cable and flash your phone that way. it did seem to make a difference if the back of the phone (around the camera area) was warm. if i let go of the power button while the music was playing and the phone did not enter download mode i would keep all 3 buttons pressed until it shut down again, then i would only let go of the power button while the phone initiated the charging screen, then once the battery logo was displayed i would hold the 3 buttons again and would just keep doing this until it went into download mode. i have flashed it at least 5 times today and i have been able to do this each time.
i also had an issue where odin would not recognize my phone was plugged in and windows would show a message saying the usb device was not recognized. i left the phone plugged in and while in download mode i pressed the volume up, enter button and power button until the phone went blank and when the galaxy s logo showed up i let go of the power button and the phone would go into recovery mode and then the usb drivers would be installed. i would then do the 3 button combo for download mode and odin would work fine. it took several attempts but it does work. i hope this helps you guys
If I hold all three buttons the splash screen does not come on, it just keeps looping the Galaxy S logo until I let go of the power button....

That's what mine did too, several times in a row and then it worked. For some reason it only works after the battery is charging for a bit and the back becomes warm. then it works at will
No luck. I am probably screwed getting it exchanged now too as I am passed the 14 days from Best Buy.
the on click thing doesn't work, if your phone is already bricked.
also it is not the phone's fault for not working, the phone was working properly before you tried the hacks.
whenever you do these kind of things you know you are entering into the "not supported" "not covered by warranty" zone.
in the worse case scenario, if you can no enter download mode to recover your phone, it'll be to take the phone back to bell and claim warranty on it, and prentent you don't know what happened to it.

Its my fault??
I did not hack my phone. Its not rooted, I did nothing to it.
By "unlock" I meant exactly that, unlock as in swiping the screen to unlock it.
The more I search the net the more posts I find of Galaxy S phones randomly bricking...
on the original message sounded more like you went to Unlock the phone, as in SIM unlock the phone using any of the tools available out there, and there has been already several people which had the same problem.
if you go back to Bell for an exchange, you better not use the word "unlock" rather use Swipe
as the message on the phone "swipe the screen to unlock"
there are no known issue about this causing the phone to brick.
if that is what happened to you, you should have started a new topic for people to help you, instead of hijacking the topic from the OP, as your issue is different from OP, the OP actually screwed up because he/she flashed the wrong ROM to the i9000
... anyways, Does it work if you reboot the phone?
I have rebooted the phone about 100 times. The phone crashed when I unlocked it to check a text I received. (not hacked). Has not booted up properly since. I have found many others with the same issue who have also not hacked/rooted/unlocked/ their phones.
Waiting on Best Buy to call me back. I am so pissed right now, I have been bragging to my friends and co-workers how awesome this phone is, one has already picked one up, I hope his doesn't brick too. Not recommending it to anyone anymore..
did you load a lot of MP3 to the phone?
can you boot into Recovery Mode?
in the recovery mode you can wipe the Cache and wipe the data
that should make your phone work normal again
it'll be best to open a topic to help you trouble shoot your interesting issue, as it's the first i've hear that you get a black screen after Swiping out of the lock screen
I can't get into recovery mode. I have tried every button combination I have found. I had about 2 GB of music on the phone. I also installed the Android SDK to try ADB, but since the phone is not in USB debugging mode it does not see it.

on the other topics relating to the 3 button not working.
have you tried the heating up method?
or the plugging the battery in, when all 3 buttons are pressed? (of course for this one you will need help from a friend, unless you are very skilled at keeping the 3 button on hold meanwhile able to slide in the battery in with out a 3rd hand)
So as the title says i currently have MIUI 1.6.10 demonSPEED v1.1 ROM and it is not booting, just completely unresponsive to everything i could think of. Im just throwing this out there to see if this has happened to anyone before or if there is a way of fixing this issue. I don't believe it has anything to do with thederekjay's rom just some unfortunate event. Anyway i fear it is possibly bricked and that i am gonna have to shell out the $150 to get a new mt4g from the insurance. Details follow...
So have had this rom for about a week now and has been working great. However this morning i was on the browser reading the news and it became unresponsive. After i let its display turn off (i just left it alone) i used the track pad to wake it. It was slow but it did show me the lock screen. When i attempted to unlock with a swipe down i felt the vibrations but the slide lock didn't budge. I then tapped the power button to turn the display off and tapped the power button once again to turn it on but nothing, just stayed black. I tried a soft reset by removing the battery, placing it back in, and powering back up. When i did so the t-mobile mytouch 4g boot image w/ the white background came on then went to an android image (lighting up a through d, looping) but then it just remained at the android image for five minutes! So i tried a soft reset again but the same thing would happen, act like it was gonna boot up completely but then gets stuck at the android image. So then i tried removing the battery and booting into recovery (via power, vol down, trackpad) that time the t-mobile mytouch 4g image would appear but after that the screen went black and after that every attempt with either the soft reset or boot into recovery wouldn't do anything at all, just a black screen as if the battery wasn't in at all. Its been like that all day and i can't figure it out so if anyone knows some info i would greatly appreciate it thanx
Ive got cyanogen 7.1.0 on my emmc. it was getting a little buggy so i decided to format data,cache,system and boot in mounts and storage. i did that then i rebooted it. the cynogen7 logo came up and with the little neon blue writing under it that says "loading...". so then when it came time for the animated cyanogen logo thing to show up, it doesn't. the screen just stays blank but its still on cause the screen back light was on. so i held down the power button till it turned off and turned it on again. the same thing happened only this time i let it stay on. about 10 mins later i go to check it and its powered off. i try turning it on but it doesn't power up. please help me out.
EDIT: Found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=949699 and it fixed my nook.
This is the same thing that is happening for me. I have actually purchased a new Tablet, and want to just put the normal Nook OS back on the device so I can give it to my parents as an eReader for X-Mas.
Please help!!
Bump....Can anyone help me out with this?
Read the 1st post again bud.....he said he fixed his and gave a link.
I was headed home today and my Sprint Galaxy S4 shutoff. It would not come back on, so i removed the battery. When i reinsert the battery, my phone does a quick vibrate, then the white Samsung Galaxy S4 logo screen appears, then disappears, then thats it. Nothing else happens. I have tried different chargers, a different battery, tried download and recovery mode. Nothing has worked so far to get me any further. When i try to go into recovery, blue writing shows in the top left that says Booting Recovery, then it shuts off and nothing else happens. When i plug into a computer, the phone does not connect to the computer.
I am usually pretty good with anything to do with a phone, but this has me stumped.
I have not downloaded any new apps or any different roms or kernels anytime recently. My phone is rooted but still on the stock rom. This phone was rooted about a year ago when i got it, and as far as roms or programming or anthing, nothing has been done to it since then.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Ok so i was wrong, the phone will boot into download mode, but only for about 2 secs, then it goes blank and off again. So it seems like some sort of power issue with the phone itself, as in hardware. Not sure that there is too much that i can do about that, but does anyone have any ideas?
I just read something on here about Samsung having a bad batch of batteries. If I were you I would take my battery to someone that could test it to see if it is holding a charge.
Had the same issue. The dude at sprint said it was a bad update that went out but not sure how true that is due to the fact that i was running a custom rom and recovery. I was running clockword mod recovery and latest CM11 nightly. If you have the insurance I'd say bring it back and they should replace it.
Any fix?
I have just been experiencing this problem as well. My s4 was working fine then all of the sudden the power button would become very sensitive and would think I would want to turn the phone off. I would click the back arrow but the phone would still either turn itself off or reboot. Then it got worse and would get stuck in bootloops. Now I have to reinsert the battery every time for it to turn on. It gets to the samsung logo and then shuts off. I can get into recovery for about 2 seconds and then it shuts off as well. My s4 is not rooted at all. Can someone please help me? I really don't want to pay at least 70 dollars for samsung just to look at it.:crying:
A couple weeks ago I grabbed my phone in the morning and unlocked it with the fingerprint scanner with no problem. I could swipe between screens but couldn't open any apps like messages or facebook or anything. It just wouldn't respond. The phone worked fine the night before.
So I held the power button and clicked on reboot, no problem. The phone starts rebooting like normal.
Then it would only boot as far as the HTC splash screen and go into a boot loop.
I tried getting into recovery by holding volume down & power down, it gets to the black HTC splash screen then boot loops again.
Volume up & power for download mode? boot loop.
I can get to boot loader by holding both volume buttons, but anything I choose just boot loops.
I am unlocked and S-off, was running OMJs latest rom and newest TWRP. I've been rooting every phone i've had since the EVO days, so i'm not new to this. I can't get fastboot or adb to recognize the device so I can't push/pull/sideload anything.
I figured F*** it I'll get the new U12 when that comes out and use my M9 till then. Then i find out Sprint isnt getting the U12...
So has anyone had this happen to their M10? Was it fixable, or is my M10 totally dead? I did some searching and I found one person who said he just let the battery drain dead and recharged it to full, by some sorcery that's all he had to do and it worked. Other people just moved on to other phones. As soon as I plug mine in it tries to turn itself on and just bootloops... for hours. I let it sit over night just bootlooping in hopes that the magical rooted phone gnomes would come fix it, to no avail.
Since Sprint apparently doesn't even sell HTC phones anymore, I cant even get a U11.
Thoughts on what I should do? Advice on the M10 situation? Got a U11 in decent shape you wanna sell?
Thanks for reading. :good:
