I had the update with OCLF installed and it worked fine until I decided "accidentally" (very very regretful now) to install Voodoo from the OCLF app. Then the phone went into a soft reset and got stuck at the Vibrant screen.
Since then I've tried to select "install packages" or "reboot system" options in the recovery mode, but it showed only a partial progress bar at the bottom, then it got stuck at the Vibrant screen.
I gave Odin a try but the app does not see any com port after use ADB reboot or recovery commands.
Btw I did NOT select USB debugging mode before installing voodoo. I did install the USB driver for the Vibrant but am not sure it even works because the Odin app did not see any com port.
Any help is appreciated! I don't want to loose data and files in the internal storage. This is kinda urgent because I need to use phone.

The same thing happened to me. I even posted it yesterday to warn people to be careful with RYANZA Voodoo and I got flamed and insulted. Basically you fried your kernel. I tried different things and what worked for me was ODIN the JI6 back. Go to Vibrant Directory Bible under Samsung Vibrant--Android Development and find that thread. Go to the ODIN section and download the JI6 package. You will need to get into 'Download" mode on your Vibrant for ODIN to work. You need to have the phone plugged into computer via USB, hold down both volume buttons and the power button at the same time. When the screen becomes black, release only the power button and download mode will pop up. Then bring up ODIN and make sure the yellow com message pops up. With ODIN it will work right away (like 2 minutes). If you see it hanging then you need to try it again. When you get your phone back up you need to disable voodoo. Good luck. Know that the Vibrant is almost impossible to kill, you will be able to bring the phone back to life.

I tried flashing it using odin but the phone would start, show the tmobile thingy and just turns off. Is there any way around this?

I'll give it a try later. Is there a good link to download the USB driver? I did but am not sure it will work with Odin. I also forgot to release the pwr button only when the Vibrant screen came on. You said release it at the black screen.
Theres voodoo on the oclf app? Where do you download it? When I downloaded it from the market it wasn't there. Do I need to install a supported kernel before it shows up?
Another thing is the phone is not in USB debugging mode before. Is this needed for Odin to work?
It is in OCLF app

I don't remember exactly how it looks but the app has like 3 tabs: 2nd is available, 3rd unavailable or vice versa, 1st is probably the voodoo one. BE CAREFUL, read the kernel instruction first! I am sure they are not compatible. It should be disabled one or the other so users wouldn't get hacked.
ok the 3 button procedure got the phone into Recovery mode like this screen with yellow text:
--------------------------------------
Android system recovery <2e>
reboot system now
reinstall packages
--Appling Multi-CSC
Installing Multi-CSC
------------------------------------
Selecting either "reboot system now" or "reinstall packages" gives this screen:
----------------------------------------
Installing from sd card completed
rebooting..
Phone reset done
-----------------------------------------
The phone now got stuck at the Vibrant screen!
How to get into the download mode?
Holding vols up down with battery in and then plug in the USB cable, the Downloading screen came up with the digging icon and a message "do not turn off target" but it just got stuck there. I typed in the adb reboot download under the folder containing the adb files but it said "error no device found". I installed both drivers, one from Samsung site and one x86 from Softpedia site. Is it time to get a new one?
Try this.
Click HERE FOR ODIN 1.30
Samsung USB Drivers MS Windows 64bit HERE 32bit drivers HERE pick the drivers that work with your pc I have windows 7 so I use 64bit.
Step 1. Download the 512 PIT file HERE this file needs to be un rared with Winrar its a free program its HERE.
Step 2. Download the T959UVJFD.tar HERE
Step 3. Get your phone in download mode try just holding the volume up and down at the same time then plug the usb in, you might have to pull the battery and then put it back in the phone then hold volume up and down at the same time then plug the usb in it should go into download mode.
Step 4. Open Odin 1.30.
Step 5. Load the 512 PIT file you extracted with winrar into Odin 1.30 PIT section of Odin
Step 6. Load the T959UVJFD.tar you downloaded into Odin 1.30 into the PDA section of Odin.
Step 7. Click the Star button in Odin.
Step 8. Let it do its thing.
Step 9. Thank me

Somewhere in the forum said that selecting the pit file will wipe all data. Is that true because I so want to keep EVERYTHING intact! Just got back from a short vacation in Waikiki
I got the PC to see the Vibrant now with Odin but I downloaded the newer tar file T959UVJI6 (2.1 updated ver) but can not see it from selecting PDA button, it can only see the old T959UVD (stock 2.1). I am at the no point of return now so within 15mins if there is no answer then I must get going.
Thanks again!
Never mind guys! my bad did not unrar the tar file..going to download it now..wish me best of luck!
ok downloading now... it is a nerve wrecking experience comparing to WM6.1 custom rom flash which was very smooth going. I still miss the original i900 Omnia. I am going to be late for the church but God please forgive me! Oh it passed the downloading and got the S logo..
it booted up but stuck at black screen with all soft keys lighted up, tried the install packages in recovery mode again..
I guess I need to download the pit file? Will this wipe out all data?
I don't have voodoo... where did you get your oclf app from? Is it not showing because I have stock JI6 kernel?

Did you follow my to-do list to the T?
this might help
you need to flash this PDA file with odin EUGENE373_SamsungS_Froyo_PDA along with the PIT 512 you should still have from the unbrick instruction odin forum then after you flash those files you need to let it do its thing it will prob take you to recovery just long press the power button and when it turns off put the usb back in the phone to get it into Download mode(just get back into download mode any way you know how) and then follow those instructions you did earlier with the unbrick instructions forum just flash the Eugene373 SamsungS Froyo PDA file first then after you flash it get right back into download mode and flash stock vibrant rom through odin.
Odin in eugenes froyo that doesnt brick.Make sure you use the 513 pit file that comes with it. When its done, pull the battery and odin the jfd. Use the 512 pit file with jfd. Check the repartition box for this one. You will be back to stock and all the lag fixes will be gone. This process works to save your vibrant from ALMOST everything

But use it with extreme CAUTION at your own risk. Don't brick it like mine
Again guys thanks for your time and help but just one more time, I am still a bit confused, can you list exactly what files to download in order to get the phone back alive without loosing any data and files?
Download 512 or 513 pit first? Do it together with the tar file (check both boxes in Odin)? I understand 512 pit go with JFD (stock 2.1 rom before the update). How about the latter one? It goes with JI6? Now I got only the JI6 in the phone without the pit file. Should I download 512 with JFD first then do the latter one with JI6, and all data still remain intact?
Hello, I so hope someone can help. I just updated my galaxy tab 2 7 p113 to Android 4.0.4 UEBLH2. That was done automatically from samsung. I wanted to then install the newest update to 4.1.1 jellybean. So I downloaded it from this link. http://www.trickytweaks.com/update-...ecli4-4-1-1-jelly-bean-ota-test-firmware.html. I put the official Android 4.1.1 UEBLH2 Firmware on my sdcard then held down my power and up volume and installed it. HOWEVER, it never finished installing. Went all the way to the end. Now I HAVE NO USB CONNECTION and NO BOOT UP. Just black Since I dont have usb connection I cant us oden. CAN ANYBODY PLEASE HELP? I still can put files on my micro disk card and then put sd disk in my tab and use the power button up arrow to install something but I tried installing clockwork mod but that did not work. Iam out of ideas. P.S. My tab IS NOT ROOTED. I tried updating back to and original rom 4.04 I download but that did work. Thank you.
I think you need to enter the download mode volume down+power or recovery mode volume up+power to be able to restore the tab
Try multiple times close the tab even with long pressing power then try the button combinations (press both for multiple seconds) and release to see if you could enter any mode
If you reached download mode try flashing stock firmware for your tab specific model 3113 or 3110 or 3100 via odin (install kies and reboot before)
If you reached recovery (stock) then connect with kies and choose recover firmware from kies options (near the word file in top) you should have active internet connection
You could try charging tab even for some hours before trying button cobinations
If not try to return as not rooted so warranty is goood

Yup, this should get you going again. If you can get into download mode, you should be okay. That's what Odin needs.
Download mode is volume down plus power. Then volume up
Recovery mode is volume up plus power.
I want to thank both the posters on trying to help me. I did hold down the power and download button and it went in to the download mode. HOWEVER, since I can not access usb it did not do anything. Just kept saying downloading. As I mentioned in my first post I CAN ACCESS MY SD DISK FILES by doing the power up button thing. Thats the only way I can get files on. But the DOWNLOADING down arrow just does not do anything. hmmmmmmm will keep plugging away.
I can not understand how you can not access usb, is it a lacking driver so download kies and reboot and try connect again ,also try a different usb ports (esp the rear of case) of your computer
Was usb working before the problem?
do you have cwm or stock recovery?
If cwm so download cm10 or cm9 from www.teamhacksung.org and put in usb card and flash but do a cash delete and dalvik delete afterwards not for boot loop
If stock so try stock firmware from www.samfirmware.com (register their first) and put in sd card and try to flash

I think you're misunderstanding download mode. When you get the device in download mode, connect it then to the computer, with Odin open. The only reason Odin wouldn't recognize it would be a driver issue. In that case, do as the previous poster stated. When you're in download mode, you're strictly flashing through Odin. You aren't going to see the device as a storage device on the computer. The only way your computer can interact with it at this point is Odin. Via Odin, flash the proper p3113 firmware file from sammobile/samfirmware (will be a large 600mb+ file). Once that's done, you should then be back to completely stock and healthy recovery and ROM. Reboot tab and see what happens. If it boots, and you still want to update, then make sure you get the correct ota for the base file you just flashed (that is, if you're trying to upgrade to say Jellybean). If you need more help always ask, but you should be fine. If I lived nearby I'd do it for you.
All I can say is unbelievable help here! Thank you. I am spending hours on this (plus a fortune on this new Tab 2 7). After studying up I do now understand how Odin works and how grabbing the correct firmware will do the job. HOWEVER (maybe others come across this huge roadblock) nothing can be done with out usb interaction. I DID DOWNLOAD KIES and installed it. But no matter what I do can not get any storage device listed or anything going on between tab and computer. Only thing my Tab does is when I plug it in to the computer via usb is go in to charging mode with the charging icon showing. Loading Odin does not show any connection. I have tried different computer USB plugins, 3 different computers (all I have loaded Kies on). Iam sooooooo close. If only while in the POWER BUTTON DOWN ARROW DOWNLOAD MODE and running ODIN on my computer there would be a connection I would be home free and able to flash firmware.

Once you are in download mode, connect your tab to the computer with the usb connection.....you should see a com xx number pop up in Odin in yellow reporting your device is connected thru a communication port. From there you will be able to choose the file you want as a PDA uncheck everything else...reboot...reset timer....whatever. Just make sure you have the correct firmware. There is a Odin flashback to Stock rom in the development section. Make sure it's for your device. Once you start Odin, should take about 4 mins...disconnect and hold the power button down to reboot. That's it....
Hello Everyone Again, I just want to say thank you for all of you who took the time to help. I hopefully will become knowledgeable enough to help people in the forums as I gain knowledge. I finally did find the solution. I did everything that was mentioned. And no matter what what I did with KIES drivers Samsung usb drivers, etc could not get a connection so I could us Odin to keep me back to the orgiginal 800 mb 4.04 original file. My solution was (as mentioned) I deleted all my windows drivers dealing with usb, kies, etc. Then rebooted. I notice even though I did not have a direct usb connection showing up now Odin was showing a connection! So using Odin I got to restore everything and now back to like new. Lesson learned. Hope this helps others that almost fatally brick their tablets. Thanks again for all our help

Is there any way to save my tablet if there is NO firmware out?
Im talking about the SCH I705, I followed the root guide, and it got ****ed up.
Unable to boot into recovery (it goes to Odin "could not do normal boot.")
Tablet seems unresponsive sometimes (to power on/off)
Will boot cycle occasionally

You have to reflash your tablet using ODIN. It's not that hard. Just follow the second method here (you don't need to download android SDK)
copy this in your navigator bar : rootzwiki . com/topic/37272-verizonsch-i705-root-for-all-current-firmware/ ( delete space around the dot)
Plus, your tab will be rooted.
You're welcome.
P.S : This limitation of URL is annoying as hell.
I was supposed to unpack the tarfile from the zip, but since my computer decided to not recognize the zip and using the rar icon I thought it was the tar itself and flashed it only to realise my mistake as Odin said the flash failed. As of right now, every time I start my device, it says "Firmware upgrade encountered and issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." and shows a picture that looks like *Phone**Triangle**Computer*.
Kies emergency recovery does not recognize the device.
Trying to start the phone in recovery mode takes me to the *Phone**Triangle**Computer*.
Download mode > Flashing a stock rom = fail (Yes, it's unpacked this time)
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Alright, so I got a lot further this time.
I figured out how to get into Download mode again, suddenly I need to press and hold the combo a little while longer than I did before, or it will go to *phone**triangle**computer*.
I got the official firmware into PDA in Odin 3.07 this time around and connected my phone to the computer after I loaded PDA.
I then pressed start and VOILA!!! Thanks fellas!
You welcome enjoy

yes u need the pit file while flashing
I, i've tried to update my friend's phone to latest unbranded build and for the lulz now i'm in troubles, well, i'll be the more accurate that i can be, so here we go:
Well, the phone enter in recovery mode as well it enter at download mode, so i'll proceed to install drivers and check odin, my lap is currently running w8.1 x64 so odin doesn't detected com port, well after a lot of googling i'll finally go to a friend lap with windows xp and drivers installed succesfully, and ODIN detect the phone at a COM port in download mode.
Well i just put the partitions file (instead i tell odin to not repartition) and put the .tar file of my unbranded s5360L, well the first times i get "setup connection" and it ends forever on it, if i close odin from task manager and reopen, com port is not detected anymore, i need to reboot and reinstall drivers to get it work and if i got tooo much luck after a few try's it start download but fail at 2 secs of the first module install.
In every PC i check'd (odin 1.84) with samsung v3000 drivers and .tar.md5 file it happens on that way, i'm very frustated cause my friend ask me for the phone and its bootlooped and i don't know how can i proceed u.u
Can anyone give me some light to fight this uncertain problem? i tried to isolate the problem as well but with no results for my perception.
Thanks, sorry for TL, but please read y.y
for TL;DR: Odin 1.83 with samsung drivers no kies stuck @ setupconnection or install a little bit and just fail everytime i try.
To start off with odin & flashing firmware works fine in Windows 8.1 - Just run the driver setup programme in compatibility mode by right click the setup file - select properties than compatibility tab & from the drop down box select windows xp sp3 - select apply and now the setup programme will run - keep clicking next & job done
Now for the firmware - never use the pit or bootloader file - its just not needed to flash stock firmware & if you flash the wrong one you will brick your phone
Use odin 3.07
All firmware and instructions are on my firmware thread to which you find either at the top of the dev section or by clicking the link to my threads in my signature below
Note if you have downloaded firmware from elsewhere delete it & download it from my thread using my instructions

Try connecting your phone when its in download and try with Odin, if it recognize your device than just flash stock rom.

Try a different version of Odin first. For me only 3.09 and upwards works.
Install Samsung kies 3 to make the phone recognizable by pc and try flashing stock firmware with odin 3.09
First of all, you should download the drivers and stock rom from Sammobile.
Found the drivers here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/k93a92c9rpyg4r5/Samsung-Usb-Driver-v1.5.55.0.exe
(not sure if they work, go and ahead install them and boot to download mode, then see, if odin recognizes it)
Latest Odin download: http://odindownload.com/
If the drivers work and your device is connected to the computer(also boot into download mode) and odin recognizes it:
1) Choose bootloader, then search for your downloaded firmware.
2) Head to the options tab and tick "Nand Erase All", "Phone EFS Clear" and "Phone Bootloader Update".
3) Then hit start and wait it to finish.
It should delete everything on your phone, restore it like it came out of the box.
If the drivers don't work let me know, I'll search for other working ones.
