Hard bricked my galaxy trying to install a kernel, is there anyway i can pull my backups from my internel sd anyway without deleting my internal sd memory?
 
Backups, as in, nandroid backups? Did you make a nandroid backup before the kernel flash?
If so, just boot into recovery and restore the nandroid.:)

When you say bricked, do you mean the device will not boot up at all? No signs of power?

No signs of power, Is there anyway to pull my internal sd backups off my phone on to my computer while its hard bricked. I can't do anything with it. is there anyway to force into download mode except jig.
 
Hmm, without any sign of power, I would doubt it.
But that reminds me of a situation I was in where, for some unknown reason, my phone died. Completely dead. Like yours, no sign of power. I freaked out as I had about 50% battery left and was doing nothing to it.
Anyway, I messed with taking the battery out, plugging it into the wall charger.
I tried putting the battery back in, back out, back in repeatedly while plugged in.
I tried unplugging/plugging into the wall charger repeatedly also.
All kinds of stuff, and don't ask me how, it finally booted up.

Did you flash a kernel made for your device and rom?
Did you make a nandroid backup?
As far as pulling the internal files without a rom or kernal flash, I'm not sure :(
There may be a way with ADB when in recovery. :o
 
Lol I know it's just that I wrote some dumb stuff n couldn't delete the post so just wrote Oops :D

Never mind funky, if your beard gets long enough you can put your head on upside down and pretend you're combing your hair! Phil :laugh:
