I know there has to be a way to fix it. There just has to be. I installed a kernel and now my phone won't work, it won't turn on and I can't even get into recovery mode. I don't care if I have to download files or anything I just need help please

Samsung Intercept VM. Sorry :/ Kinda new at this
I installed Odin and even found the .TAR files, but Odin keeps crashing.

Okay so now its running. but Odin isn't progressing. I've been looking at "setup connection" for 10 minutes.

**Nia737** · 08-03-2012, 08:50 PM

I can't find a valid .TAR file that works without making Odin crash. Help

I would try and download your files again... Sometimes they can get corrupted in the download process.

That's the problem with automated procedure. When something goes wrong, you're in s**t.
Do you know how to get in recovery mode with your device?

You should know the risk for and know how to handle the worst case scenario..next time better to read and read more before doing anything. If it's still in the warranty you can go to your service center.
