  • hey will this work on a completely hard bricked ( dead) galaxy ace? nothin s happening when i hold the power on button also.....

  • I bricked my galaxy note... is there anything i can do to unbrick it?

    Help me and you can have my first born, no strings attached

  • So I used this method, and it worked. But then when I used odin 1 click, it rebricked the phone. now this method isn't working at all. It keeps sending me back to the same brick screen. Please help. Is there anything I can do about this?

    Thanks

  • thanks!!

    

  • *vid

  • @indospot ive managed to do it whith the help of puddereduk vis ill send you the link, ik m know on my phone so dont have the time to find my history etc. that all out

  • My phone just keeps rebooting after the samsung logo appears. Seriously, What can I do?

  • Can someone let me know if their computer recognizes their phone as a device while soft bricked?

  • Jow guys please can sombody help my sgs back to working. i can get in download mode without a jig so i do not need one. second mine software was before a little damaged and when is start up my phone he doesnt load a picture but is continious rebooting

  • @EmranMahmoud Same with me. I haven't tried out any of the ways to unbrick, but my phone just keeps rebooting. When Smasung logo appears, it goes black and it goes on and on like this.

  • Boy, do I have a question for you. My infuse is stuck in a bootloop, wouldn't boot into recovery or download mode, but here's a twist for you, right when I put my battery in, it goes into a bootloop. So I went ahead and made one of these JIGs, got it into download mode, only to find out that ITS STILL STAYING IN THE BOOTLOOP. If i remove the JIG, it just bootloops the Samsung logo. Any help?

  • finally a detailed video, but try showing the longer portion of the usb connector to referance 4 5, as the top longer than the bottom, zero referance, using phone is great also for referance on 4.,5

    keep those resistors side by side for handy, shorten leads, and package them, but for show, it is great.

    right in relation to???

    right of two in relation?

    will over 300-300k ohms work, ??

    yes amazing,

  • my phone (samsung galaxy s) does not work at all or does not light up the screen nothing. In this case, the jig work?

  • Will jig unbrick my my phone, you want support,support us with answers>>>>>>

  • Why don't I send you my phone and you un-brick it and I pay you , I have a Samsung Exhibit 2 4g.. Cheaper then buying a new phone, willing send it to you.

  • help :( i try in every pin and only powers up wit that fff brick ":S

  • i did it but only powers on :s still brik any orders to put the resistor ??? i have three 100k ohm gold brow gold brown this is my combination

  • Hey, I have a Fully Bricked Samsung Galaxy 2. If I buy your professional JIG can it bring my phone to the download mode?

  • hi I am joseph from Turkey and have a few questions..

    1) Should I do this method when there is simple solution with jig ?

    2) Jig you sold method is working instead of this method ? if jig work I will buy it.

    3) jig mod working all sorts of bricked ?

    and I have seen worldwide shipping 3 usd at your website.. so jig shipping cost to Turkey is 3 USD ?

  • what if instead of having the phone ...!...PC image, i have a grey battery image? can i be saved?

  • @lajdlfajdsfja Try holding volume up and down, and plug in a usb cable. If it gets into recovery, just odin one-click back to stock. Or buy a jig from these guys, it will get you into download mode

  • will this work on galaxy 5?

  • i love you

  • After you do that what is next? Will Odin recognize it? My phone was going into download mode but Odin wasn't recognizing it. Will this procedure make Odin recognize it some I can flash another rom?

  • Worked for me!! Cool!

  • life saver .. saved my captivate :)

  • ola mi cel se puso la pantalla blanca solo dice at y t y de ahi no pasa tengo q quitar la bateria para apagarlo y no me entra a modo dowload ni nada cn los botones q hago....

  • i have a Samsung vibrant and i bricked it it doesnt go pass the vibrant screen so i tried putting in recovery mode it wouldn't go so i took my sim and memory card out and it reached the download mode when i connect the USB but the one click app says it successful but still doesn't go past the vibrant screen i have also tried connecting it on Odin while on download screen and nothing shows up please help i am dying without my phone already pissed that i lost alot of my stuff on the phone

  • @youngwaqas Watch my ODIN video and download the Vibrant stock ODIN pit and firmware package from my site.

  • @MobileTechVideos How come some people say don't touch the PIT file? Why is it required in this case?

  • worked like a charm!

  • ncm dude it worked, i fricken love you no homo, it actually worked, im already subscribed! i liked to point out that i touched the metal part with my hands and it worked it took me only three tries! how do i donate?

  • my phone still wont go into download mode it goes the boot screen then it stays at bootloop i have samsung captivate running miui 1.11.18 with cm7/miui glitch kernel for captivate

  • My phone only turns on.. any ideas what might be wrong?

  • Hey i just bought one, how long does it take to ship to canada

  • I'm sure somebody has pointed this out, but 3 100K ohm resistors will give you 300K ohms. Getting 300K ohms from 3 100K ohms IS the effect of wiring them in series. You don't get an extra 1K ohm from the series. This works with a wide range of resistances. Check XDA, somebody used a variable resistor to see what range the phone would accept, and it's somewhere between 270K and 320K ohms.

  • Works like a charm. Thanks so much i was so freaked out when i couldn't put my galaxy s into download mode! Cheers for the tutorial great work!

  • i bricked my Samsung galaxy ace while using ROM manager. 3 buttom combo is not working. so is it hard bricked? can i use this method to get it to downloading mode? what can i do now? please advice!

  • does this work if you brick it with ROM Manager?

  • i love you guy, i would like to say that i did with a 470k resistence, just one, and it works !, dont ask how but now is running.

  • Can anybody tell me if a jig can work on a fully bricked Captivate? I know it can work on a "soft-bricked" phone, but mine isn't even showing anything on the screen.

  • @marqj30 No but checkout my jtag service. Google captivate jtag mobiletechvideos

  • When i used the jig instead of turning on in download mode it goes into recovery 3e is there something that i am doing wrong?

  • does the USB have to be hacked up? couldn't you use the pins at the USB end?

  • So this wont work if my phone is hardbricked, wont boot, or go into download mode? :(

  • Dear friend does it work on ATRIX!!!

  • Man Thank You! Really useful video!

  • Awesome, I`m very interested if that metod will repair my Samsung H1?

    Good JOB man!!! The simplest solutions are the best!

    Best regards for this video maker!!!

  • You can thank Adam Outler and Rebellos for this on the XDA Forums just search for Adam Outler or Rebellos for more info on links videos ect.

  • Can this work on hard-bricked phones.I installed CWM for wrong phone and my phone cant turn on it just a blank no phone and PC picture.Pls answer :D

  • hey bro does this work with all kind of galaxy phones

    plzzz say yes :(((((

  • thnx for ur post .will it work on galaxy mini(gt-s5570)

  • i love you!

  • Now My Cap is bricked. I got nothing. Doesn't respond to being plugged into anything. Only thing I get is it heats up just a little when left on the charger. Before I ravage my USB, suggestions? Because I'm not at a soft brick. She don't turn on for nothing lol

  • @Gustonian84 I'm not an expert but I'd say shes dead. Ask on the XDA forums though. They may be able to help.

  • Does this work on Samsung Galaxy Mini??

  • I just want to add: Whenever you flash you phone with a custom rom/firmware to root or whatever, theres a counter in the phone that keeps the record of the times you flash your phone. being that said for guarantee purposes if the counter is more than zero, you will be caught cheating with your vendor. THIS JIB WILL ALSO RESET THAT FLASH COUNTER TO ZERO!!! just a note for the "hackers" out there and keep it "safe" :P

    GREAT TUTORIAL, ima do it in spanish though, based on yours! :)

  • will this work on the galaxy 5?

  • my t-mobile galaxy s won't even start can i still use your method to unbrick?

    Thanks

  • My captivate is displaying pixalated screen even with jig did i just hard brick my captivate?

  • 300 ohm or 300k (300,000) ohm? You keep changing the value while talking.

  • @Hardwyre He wrote in the video he used 100kOhm resistors, three in series. So definitely 300k

  • @Hardwyre three 100 ohm resistors 1/4 watt, 5% tolerance. 99 cents at any radio shack.

  • Thanks for the video.

    This one is the same Jig that works with the Samsung Galaxy S II?

  • I made a jig but i cant turn my phone off because the power button is broken and whenever i put the back in

    And since the phone wont turn off when i use the jig it says usb connected any suggestions?

  • Tanx from Brazil! worked!! But Odin stuck on setup cpnection...

  • HI ..

    Umm i recently tried to flash the MIUI rom..

    and in the process of flashing cm7-captivate-initial-kernel.t­ar I ended getting stuck at the GALAXY S CYANOGEN (mod) screen.

    Now for all the Download and Recovery modes i used the ADB COmmands

    since my captivate doesnt have a three button combo..

    The problem i have is i cant get into recovery mode.

    1)becuase phone is not getting detected so no adb commands would work

    2)no 3 button fix.

    and i am stuck. Would htis method work for my scenario.?

  • can i also use a 301k ohm resistor?? or do i have to use 3 100k ohm resistors?? :SS

  • dude am totally not gay but can i meet you somewhere and give you a hand job oh my god you saved my phone

  • Hey josh the jig I purchased from you dosent work, and when I needed it the most, please help me out here.

  • @NOVADOSED What are the symptoms of the phone? What happens when the JIG is used? Which Galaxy S variant is it? Thanks!

  • @MobileTechVideos Can you jtag my Telus SGS Fascinate 3G+? I live in Ontario, Canada.

  • So, I've got a Samsung Galaxy S2. I changed the PIT in ODIN. And now I just got a black screen. Nothing works. I think this is called 'bricked' but I'm not sure. Will this method work for me?

  • @Wiihavegotaproblem i know how to fix it, it happend to me too

    okay just do this turn the fone off comepletely then hold both volume buttons and press the power on at the same time the just restore ur fone

  • @crazysoccer7you I appreciate your advice, but it doesn't work. It doesn't respond to anything I do. Volume Up, Volume down, power, home, I tried everything. I bought a USB Jig, but it doesn't work either.

  • 300kOhm is enough! That 1kOhm is not necessary.  2x150kOhm resitors will do the magic!

  • i just received my jig..worked perfectly..thanks for you amazing support..also i subscribed to your channel :-)

  • Hi can i use this in sgs2 in resetting "binary custom download"? Thank you

  • holy crap it worked... im in download mode now... thanx for making this video and thanx to all the ppl who came up with this method... awesome

  • @grover211 You got it! SUBSCRIBE if possible... :)

  • @grover211 would this work for my brick galaxy s .It won't even turn on now

  • So, will this work as long as the phone is softbricked? Mine is stuck at the bootscreen and every key combo I've tried just puts it at a screen where it shows the battery charging.

  • @mets4life3064 Yep.. :)

  • @MobileTechVideos Already replied on the other vid, but thanks a ton.

  • @MobileTechVideos Just did it, and it WORKS! Odin is currently flashing me back to stock. Thanks so much.

  • My vibrant went dead and wont turn on at all. complete black screen. I think its definately hard brick. will using a jig work or will I have to use the jtag method?

  • @BeatmanMyth depends on the software you flashed

  • Does this fix boot loop? Can someone please tell me.

  • @finalfantasy10121 does not fix bootloop, gets you into download mode where as from there you can flash back to stock firmware, thus fixing your bootloop.

  • @RidinChevySolo Got it done already, Thanks for the feedback though :)

  • Just saved my phone for 8.57. Radioshack sells the resistors. Instead of buying a whole cable or charger and having to cut it up they also sell a micro usb "iGo" adapter, it is a small micro usb male end with the leads already exposed with copper rods on the other end, only about 1/2 long, no cutting just twist the resistors, plus in the iGo (which the leads are set up the same as the video) and boom done.

  • Saved my phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks so much

  • does it work on samsung galaxy ace s5830?

  • THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH.

  • will this jig work no matter what state your phone is in?

  • After u do that does the phone start working again?

  • @littlemonster1531 after you do that the phone goes into download mode then you can fix it from there...using odin3

  • You are the man.

  • what is the jtag service?

  • my samsung captivate will not turn on at all it bricked when i tried the update. trying to turn the power on does nothing. will this work for my phone?

  • @im2godly88 Possibly. If it does not, our JTAG service will work for you.

  • @MobileTechVideos

    Is the one that you just put your JIG on hardbricked? Where it doesnt turn on with the power button?

  • I was bricked and couldn't get past the phone-!-computer screen for the life of me...tried everything over and over. Read the usb jig thread, watched a youtube vid and built one out of 3 100k resitors for $1.19 at radio shack and cut up an old micro usb tip.... Flawless! got to D/L Mode in about 5sec and Odin'd back to factory... I'm alive again.

    Thanks SO MUCH!!! will donate on payday...

  • will you reply to me this decade?

  • @serge421UA No it won't work on your HD2. A google search would yield the answer to that question.

  • @MobileTechVideos thank you for replying after i already tried lol.. wasted like an hour looking for stupid radioshack for resistor

  • @serge421UA Sorry man. I put Galaxy S in the title and I have over 200 comments every day. It's impossible to reply to them all.

  • @MobileTechVideos yea but i saw people asking about other phones and you kept saying yes. ok thanks anyway

  • Do you think this would work for my hd2? (had android 2.2 running on it)

  • thanks

    

  • Will this work on the Samsung Mythic? and is a bricked phone the same thing as a phone with a dead boot?

  • This is also an way to do it put you phone on a charger NOT USB JUST WALL POWER and then wait about 45 MINUTES then its got hot on the back en is the 45 MINUTES are over pull out your charger and hold VOLUME DOWN + HOME + POWER thats the way do also do it

  • @DutchPCTutorials I honestly thought you were full of crap because I'd never heard this suggestion before, but I figured I had nothing to lose so I tried it and by God you're right it did work. Thank you sir.

  • @Dead1Eagle6 No thanks sir. i never post bullshit on youtube! enjoy your galaxy phone

  • will this work on samsung galaxy s i9000?

  • would this work for samsung galaxy prevail also?

    

  • oh. does anyone know how i can get into development on the android platform or even apps??? i have the mind for it and a passion for the devices.. i already am the goto guy in my area when someone bricks their phone or wants custom rom. i charge 20 for new rom & 10 extra for themes and teeeks and a total custom workover. i am doing good as a little extra toy money for me n my sons... and the jig is a great 8 bucks spent ppl. great vids guys. ***** 5 stars

  • you are cool as heck man. i had long since fixed my friends soft bricked cappy but got your tesponce to my post in the form of an email. and the jig rocks. you will get donation. and anyone obsession jv9 is off the hook bad ass... stable and art. thanks again.

  • will this work for Samsung Vibrant v1?

  • @BCano93 Yes.

  • @MobileTechVideos Thank you for the quick reply. I ordered one, but have not received any confirmation that it has shipped. Will I just receive it in the mail in a couple of days?

  • I used odin3 to flash my sgs rom and it stopped in the middle of the process. Then I unplugged the usb and took the battery out. Since then my sgs can't start at all even I press the power button (black screen and no sign of power). Can I use usb jig to bring it to the download mode?

  • @kvk118 It MAY work in your scenario but there is a chance you are hard bricked. If you are, search for "captivate jtag" and watch my jtag service video. I can still fix your phone in the scenario as well...

  • Hello there! my captivate is displaying the phone ! pc sign. it wont even boot into anything, other then that screen. will this defenetly work?, thanks

  • @MrIhasafro Yes is it will.

  • hi there.

    mine is Galaxy Mini S5570, or some may call it Pop.

    i had tried the jig... i manage to bought only the 300k ,one piece.

    and another is 330k, one piece.

    i tried on both ,... different pin... but still get nothing ....:(

    i had used plastic to cover in case accidently touch the metal.

    it should be ok with 1 piece, right? as long as it is 300k

    very sad... could someone please advise where did i not doing right?

  • Hi..Nice video you have here.

    I got an error while doing the recovery from Kies yesterday. I followed the instructions. Now my phone doesn't turn on. Will the jig method work for me? Thanks

  • @dyennikins If the failure is after Kies then most likely not as Kies is known to bootloader hard brick phones. However, I can fix a hard brick as well and it's a service that I offer. Just email me at joshgroce@gmaildotcom

  • so i would have to plug in my working usb cable into it after entering into download mode? or how it will get the restored software?

  • @gaivoron You install Odin3 v1.0 and click start on odin with your phone connected o the computer. also make sure you have the samsung usb drivers installed. :)

  • love the vids.. will be donating... anyway my friend brought her brand new capp to me to root and install custom rom.. i have been installing these and am currently running mosaic II. anyway i went to download mode on her phone and used oden to flash to eclair with oden... when i rebooted i could not get it back to download plus its in a bootloop at att screen and back to black. ive done all i know to get to download mode... will this help[, and will i be able to flash anything with odin if so?

  • @shawn43143 Yes. The JIG will get you into download mode 100% in your case.

  • @MobileTechVideos My vibrant wont boot at all... will this fix it?

  • @BennieBoiPhresh If it shows no signs of powering on at all this will probably not fix it. However, I offer a service in which I can still fix your phone. Search for "VIBRANT JTAG" here on YouTube to find out more.

  • i just bought the $8 jig, and i can't wait for it to come. My captivate keeps turning on and going into recovery mode, like an endless loop. This happened right after i flashed cyanogenmod 7. i cant get it into download mode for the life of me. my captivate won't let me do anything, even if i pull the battery. Will this jig work for this?

  • @Sketchguitar9204 Yes it will. It will put you into download mode just fine. Make sure the battery is out then put it back in. Now put in the JIG and cound to 3... :)

  • @MobileTechVideos Oh thank god i thought i ruined it. I would have had to use my old blackberry, nobody wants that thing haha. so i take the battery out, put it back in, stick in the jig, and then turn it on and it'll go into download mode. if i take the jig out will it still be in download mode so i can plug it into my comp and use odin to get it back to default? and i never got a confirmation email when i purchased the jig, is that normal?

  • @Sketchguitar9204 Yes completely normal. It goes out the same day or next day you order and arrives in 2-3 business days.

  • I bought jig from you guys. Iam in soft brick mode in the [hone-pc screen and the jig doesnt work.

  • @antonyponvijai Not a true bootloader bricked Captivate.

  • so this is the precursor, the earlier raw method used in the jig's you now manufacture & sell?

  • @AtheistCitizen No they are manufactured with professional molded connectors and micro resistors. They look like something you would buy at a store versus this... :)

  • @MobileTechVideos I was sure that they are manufactured, but the pt to my question relates to that your exacto and resistors version being what preceded specification with the additional objective that it be sturdy & compact.. I look forward to mine arriving from you... I'm soft bricked just now..

  • @AtheistCitizen The principal behind the professional version is identical to this prototype yes. They do the same thing in the same way. One is just more compact. That's the beauty in what I try to do IMO, offer a free solution and a paid version... :)

  • @MobileTechVideos Will 1/2 watt work?

  • is this working on samsung galaxy ace coz my SGA wont turn on also wont turn into download mode and revovery mode

  • I made mine more permanent using solder!

    I happened to find a rare 301 ohm resistor at my local electronics shop so i used that and it worked!

  • I just ordered your tool from Germany. I hope this will unbrick my SGS as I flashed a wrong ROM onto it, namely a Captivate one. Now it is stuck at the AT&T boot logo and nothing works anymore.

  • DUDE YOU ARE F*&KING AWESOME MAN!!!! SAVED MY LIFE, thanks for showing me man,

    luckly i had some resisters in my tool room

  • DUDE YOU ARE F*&KING AWESOME MAN!!!! SAVED MY LIFE, thanks for showing me man,

  • DUDE YOU ARE F*&KING AWESOME MAN!!!! SAVED MY LIFE, thanks for showing me man,

  • what am i doing wrong???? all my phone does is power on when i touch the prongs

  • OMFG YOU ARE A GOD! I WAS ABOUT TO GIVE UP BUT YOU SAVED MY GALAXY S! :DD::D:D:D:D:D

  • will this work for black screen ??

    i tried resetting my phone to stock to put another rom on but odin froze just before it finished so i unplugged it to try again but it wouldnt turn back on or get into download mode or anything, its just dead :(

    thanks

  • This Worked like magic!!!!! AWESOME product!

  • Thank you!

  • THANK YOU!
