[TUTORIAL] Unbrick Mini S5570 (Bricked With Black Screen) - Page 2

Oh man. So near and so far...
Got as far as step 4 in the middle esction (insert battery with key combo) and nothing happened. Now the phone isn't detected at all, and I don't seem to have anything under USB called Samsung... at all.
And started again from the beginning and windows won't detect... sigh
Frustrating. I feel there must be some way of getting there. My phone is showing signs of life, but I just can't get windows to talk to it.

hi, flashing bricked my phone and while I can still get into download-mode, odin does not recognize phone anymore. Thanks for any sugestions for bringing the phone back to life.

Followed every step, Odin works fine, I mean it gets to the "Killer Timer" part, but my phone still doesn't boot, when I press the ON button the screen just blinks, like these one:

Hope anyone helps.

Good job! Thank you! Your tutorial helped me a lot. I followed the your instructions and unbricked my S5570 after a wrong flashing. Thx!

I have just resurrected my galaxy mini s5570!!

it had a black screen brick but could only be detected by odin and my laptop.. followed the guide and voila! 2.3.4 !!!! try it

Life to the dead.
Thnx it worked

suicidallooney · May 14th, 2012, 06:07 AM

I'm glad this has worked for some of you, seems other types of bricks aren't suited to this tutorial. I no longer have this phone and it's been a long time since i wrote this so i cannot provide anymore help other than the tutorial sorry guys

Good day.

I just rooted my cellphone and i have Uninstalled my Samsung Home system data using the titanium backup app, when I restarted my phone it starts only to the Samsung welcome screen. no more after that. (I don't know why I did that)

From what I have done I have 4 questions
1. Did I brick my phone?
2. Is there any way to fix my phone?
3. Am I posting at the right thread?
4. will the tutorial be working on my phone? xD

Sorry for everything, I'm just a noob in this place

BTW my firmware is 2.2.1 froyo xD

note - only yesterday did i upgraded my phone to gingerbread 2.3.6 thru kies. also while i was installing the clockworkmod i was actually trying to back up current rom & since rom manager was unable to recognize my device, i just chose the very first listing that rom manager displayed. while the clockworkmod was installing thru wifi, my phone was also connected thru usb.
anyways i wud b extremely grateful if u cud provide me with a solution. thanx a lot.

I've done the exact same thing except that I rooted my phone using SuperOneClick. Can anyone please help

Does anyone know will this work with S5570I (Mini Plus)? And if it does, where can i get ODIN that works with it? Normally, ODIN does not detect mini plus.

Nixon Kasasi · October 21st, 2012, 07:09 AM

My computer no longer displays an error mark against the 'Samsung CDMA Technologies'. Now, where go I get odin? Do I need to download, coz 'KIES' came with my phone in a CD.

bixo25 · November 27th, 2012, 07:41 AM

my pc still not recognizing my phone

i just bricked my phone an hour ago

help pls. i installed lates usb drivers already

Kanichiwah · December 1st, 2012, 03:42 AM

Hey!
I really need this tutorial, its been going well until.

Quote:

At this point follow these steps
Step 1 – Prepare Odin with a WORKING firmware and make sure everything is ready to go

Step 2 – Remove battery, SIM card and SD card, and connect your phone if it isn’t already connected

Step 3 – Hold Volume down + Power + Home button at the same time

Step 4 – Insert the battery while holding down the above buttons

(Windows will detect your phone and start to install/configure the same drivers again wait for the drivers to finish installing)

When windows doesn't detect my phone at all please help

so after that when i make the odin ready n try to enter the download mode again... no drivers such as odin driver is installed n thus stuck on setup connection againn...

help me out here.. i flashed wrong clockworkmod n got stuck here in this black screen..

Same here, I used to be able to get into download mode with my hard brick, I was a noob then and didn't know that I could flash it back, Then after losing it for about 2 months download mode no longer works, the only mode that works is armv9 mode which I think is useless im really mad

Hi

I only registered to say THANKS!

You saved me, I though I was screwed because my GT-S5870 didn't boot after odin (black screen, sound when connecting to computer), but inserting the battery while holding home+power+volumedwn did the trick. Entered in Recover again and flashed with successss!!
