Sadly for you, you have a hardware issue.
You shouldn't give up easy. I personally have a 10" 4.0.3 ICS android tablet, but it's nowhere near WP7 in any terms.
As for the phone, if it doesn't boot up I doubt they'll be able to see anything ;)
Good luck!

yeah my last resort will be to use a riff box still debating though rather to save for the focus s will see

I've also mirrored them in my MediaFire Share, but due to MediaFire restrictions, I've had to break them into two parts ea. Download both parts, then run the first part to extract (the first part has my SuperSport icon ;)).

Trying out the downloads, I'm getting 1.4MB download speeds.

MediaFire Link Samsung Driver Included also

will this help if i can still get to download mode

I'm not sure what your ask is. If you can get into download mode, you can flash either of these AT&T/Rogers roms. If you can't get into download mode, you need a USB jig to put your phone in download mode and that's a few bucks on eBay.

LE: I've been reading your posts here and here, it seems that you might have some defective memory in your phone. If you can put the phone in download mode, this is something you definitely should try. The executable contains the flasher too, and for a mini-guide on flashing, read here.
Does Zune see your phone? If it does and you have a backup, you could try to restore there too.
Last resort, you could ask in the DFT thread
Good luck mate.

Hi there,

I am trying to solve an issue with my friends Samsung Focus i917 which went to boot loop post he tried to upgrade his firmware and accidently disconnected the cable... post that phone does not boot at all.. I have tried to flash it using your stock rom but still the Samsung logo flashes for a second and then goes off and on again...

Here is the log that is generated when tried to flash..

Others will know better than me, but that sounds like the error that happens when you try to flash the wrong ROM to your phone. ie: Version 1.3 to a v1.4, or v1.4 to a v1.3. You will find your Version number under the battery on the sticker inside. You HAVE to flash the correct version, or it can brick your phone.

    These roms bring your phone basically back to factory with os version 7004. Its useful if you have a focus in demo mode or just wanna downgrade to 7004 to do the chevron unlock and upgrade. But to answer youre question, in order for the program to see your phone, you have to put ur phone in download mode.
    Turn off phone, hold camera, volume up, n power then connect to pc. Make sure you have samsung drivers installed. If you have windows vista or 7, if drivers are not there it will automatically install from windows update.

    Just found your answer after I finished flashing my focus and want to give a little tutorial for people who don't know how to do it. But thanks anyway :)

    And yes, I bought my focus from ebay, already updated in 7390, but I want to unlock my device. Have been struggling since yesterday, searching here and there. Now I can sleep tight :)

    How to flash your focus !! said:
    To wrap it up :

    1. Download Samsung USB Driver (Windows 7 can't find it for me) and install it.
    http : //mirror.batteryboss.org/SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe

    2. Unplug your device (if it's plugged).

    3. Put your focus in download mode (I found this from Omnia forum), as astaccz already stated, press Volume UP + Camera + Power button, then after you see Exclamation Mark inside Yellow Triangle, release the button.

    4. After the driver installed, Run the application (I use the 7.21 version) then load all of the files needed. (nb0, bin, etc)

    5. Plug your device !! The Start button will be clickable now !!

    6. Press start, and enjoy the flashing progress.

    7. Wait until you get the Getting Started screen.

    8. Enjoy !!!

    Hello, how can I flash my phone using this firmware ??? The "Start" button always disabled (greyed out).

    Is this only for developer unlocked device ??

    My phone is Samsung Focus rev 1.3 in 7390 Update (zune said it's already updated to latest version, but someone here said there's may update 7392)

    I've been waiting for this for a long time. My replacement phone came with 7390 installed, so I was locked out. Now, I've flashed this 7004 ROM, Unlocked, Updated, and am currently running 7390 UNLOCKED. Very much appreciated. :D

    Be sure to browse for all the file parts in the Flash Program, then be sure to select ALL the check boxes. Next, put your phone into DOWNLOAD mode (Volume UP, Power, Camera) and then start the flash. See the attached images. Of course your files will be in slightly different locations.
