Hey,

since two days i experience some serious problems with my Galaxy W, dont know if its bricked or not.

I have flashed CM 10.1 and the newest Clockworkmod recovery, after that i was able to charge my device and connect the device as mass storage with my laptop. But this was just possible for ONE time.

Since then, i havent been able to charge it nor to connect it with my laptop. Funny thing is that my brother wasnt able to charge the battery in his Galaxy W, but i was able to charge and connect with his battery, but again just for ONE time (too bad that i disconnected before flashing the stock rom). When i try to connect my device with the charger, it just starts CM but wont show the charging symbol nor would charge once loaded CM.

Do you guys have any idea what has happened to my device?

So is there any chance to get the stock recovery and Rom back on my phone if i cant use odin or adb? I dont think that i can send it in for warranty under these conditions.

A solution might be buying a new battery so that i can connect it for one time to odin to flash the stock recovery...

Your usb driver migh got corrupted.

This happened to a friend with his S2 after ubgrading his rom via OTA. He also coudn´t connect via USB nor charge his phone. Funny thing was I could charge his phone at my usb connection, but not with my charger. Lucky him it was Samsung stock rom, so Samsungs Service Center reflashed his rom and so fixed this issue. They also told him his usb drivers got corrupted during the ubdate via OTA.

What you can try is for example to download CM9, put in on your SDCard and flash it from there. If that doesn´t help try reflashing CWM.
