It freeze here befeore 30 min. what should i do now?

Close ODIN and then put your phone into download mode again

Here is my no fail method to get this to work

take battery out of phone
Open Odin
Plug USB cable in
HOLD BOTH VOLUME ROCKERS down along with power button
Slide in battery

If dont correctly Odin should displace COM ( whatever )

Odin is a pain but can be done
 
I take absolutely no credit for this.

After jacking up my vibrant... I needed to flash back to "out of the box" status. After hunting around a bit I came across this and SUCCESSFULLY flashed my phone back.

I'm passing this on for the people who are new to flashing with this particular phone and don't know where to start etc.

[ROM] OFFICIAL T-Mo Vibrant JFD ODIN/Nandroid Backup Images 7/29/10 (Tested/Working) - xda-developers



A couple of things I noticed while flashing mine.

First... getting to download mode was giving me crap at first. Then i found this tip on page 21 @ post 206:



This worked for me.

Also, after getting everything setup right and working.... I noticed that Odin didn't seem to be doing anything... to which I found this reply on page 20 @ post 198:



This also worked for me. My phone didn't flash until the second time around. I also restarted my pc and made sure to be using the files provided in the first post for good measure. (Odin, the .tar & pit)

----------------

As for the "NAN" backup.... I'm not that advanced yet and don't pretend to know anything about it. Hopefully this will help other people who have messed up get back on track.

----------------

Edit*

Mods, not sure if this is the correct or best section for this... but I figured if the phone is that messed up... it's probably due to actually messing around with the root files etc and deserves to be here in this sub forum.
Is there a newer Eclair Flash by Odin out there because i flashed it and missing some of the apps
 
What apps are you missing?
Do you want to go the custom ROM route, or stay with stock ROM?
If you want to stay with stock ROM, do the manual Froyo update via Kies mini, I think it adds some new apps that you thought you were missing.

Original post was for JFD tar file, you can click the link below and use JI6 to see if it adds any new apps. I bought my Vibrant in December so it already came with JI6, so I don't know what new apps were added.

thx to KopyKatKiller


I have not gotten my vibrant yet (next week or so) but am downloading this stuff just so that I have it and can ask for help when I do my first root (never had a smartphone, never rooted) so that I hopefully don't mess it up too much in case the Galaxy S 4G comes out, if I use this process after I've rooted and flashed or whatever it is called, would this make it tradeable for the new one under the 20day buyers remorse? Or is there some way that this is not truly what they accept as original?
 
This doesn't work for me. After Odin downloads to phone it boots:

MBR Checksum Error
Movinand Checksum Confirmation Fail
--movi_checking done!...
#MANUAL MODE #
--Appling Muti-CSC...
Installing Muti-CSC

Tried both cache and user data wipes with success but still blank display buttons that light when I touch.

Reinstall packages >> E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip

Problem Solved with 2.2 No Brick (the real McCoy) and then factory img.
 
I have bricked my Samsung Ace . I successfully rooted the phone using Super-one click and installed ROM Manager. While trying to back up the ROM for future use in case some thing goes wrong, i wanted to take a backup. In the process i think i selected wrong option and it bricked my phone. I want to wake my phone again. Please tell me whether the above files will work for Samsung ACE S5830.

And lastly the above links are not working. the lick to Dropbox says that the account is disable temporarily. other links are also not working.
