Help HELP!!! Samsung Kies Killed My Phone

[Narek]

I never upgrade my phone before. But today I decided to upgrade firmware through the Kies but its end awfully.
Kies succesfully downloaded update but when it starts to download the new firmware to the phone its stood on 1%.
On the screen of the device I saw Android logo and under it "Do not turn off target". But after waiting 2 hours it was still on 1%.
Then I canceled the download and disconected device from CPU.
And now I can't turn on my device, its keeps showing "Device and computer picture with attention icon in the middle of them". I removed battery and put it back, but when I am turning on device it shows the same picture of "Device-----Attention icon-----Computer".
The phone in 1 year warranty and I give it to the service centre already, but I am still worry. What do you think can the guys from the service centre repair the phone or not?

You just bricked your phone... congratulations if u gave it to service and u have warranty, u `ll probably get new one so don`t worry too much...

But I didnt do anything. Its Kies that stood on 1% while upgrading firmware. Is there anybody who had this problem too?

 

[jaliy]

did u flash any firmware or root ur phone?
or did it come straight from the box

It come straight from the box. Its the first time I tried to update firmware through the Kies and here is result.
Do you think that service centre will resolve this problem?

 

[Twinn]

are u sure u did everything as it should be done ? for example did u had ur batt charged to 100% before updating ? and as i wrote before, if u have it on warranty u will get new one propably or there`s always a small chance that its not bricked and service will save it.

See if you can go into download mode. (Vol down+home+power)
If you can, flash it with the appropriatae firmware via Odin

If you cant, then it seems likely that is bricked.
Your last resort before returning it would be to get a USB Jig off ebay. They are not expensive (approx

Yes it was charged to 100%.
Do you really think that they will give me new phone if they would unable to repair my phone?

No I cant go to any mode. Its just keep showing that picture "Mobile device-----Attention icon-----Computer".

 

[jaliy]

do u remember which firmware was it updating

You done this key combination when the phone was off yes ?

Just a thought

 

[Narek]

do u remember which firmware was it updating

Unfortunately No.

 

[Narek]

You done this key combination when the phone was off yes ?

Just a thought

Yes. I could do only 2 things: Turn off the device and turn on (of course its continue to show the same thing).

 

[Narek]

Its awfull to think that I bricked my phone during upgrading it through official Samsung Kies update.

 

[jaliy]

where did u purchse the phone

 

[Twinn]

but still i dont get your worries. if u have it on warranty why are u worried so much huh ? and assuming ur phone was quite new, u propably didnt had many things stored there( photos, etc.) so if u get ur back rapaired or get new one... whats the diffrence ? u will get it anyway so cheer up and be patient + wait till it comes back

 

[Narek]

where did u purchse the phone

From Samsung shop.

 

[Narek]

Is there any way to upgrade the phone without risking your phone.
If its such a problem to do through Kies then how much the risk to brick your phone when upgrading through Odin?

 

[jaliy]

From Samsung shop.

what region

 

[Narek]

what region

Russia.

 

[Narek]

I dont think that the problem is phone. Its all because of that Kies.

 

[Twinn]

it doesnt matter where did u bought your phone as long as it was from official sources. and yes, kies is sh*t. u should upgrade firmware via Odin. way faster + non problematic

And how much is the risk?

 

[Twinn]

there is always a risk if u do it the wrong way. but well, it is very simple! u do it in 2 minutes but first read carefully instruction how to do it.
