19000 is pretty hard to brick unless you flashed the wrong firmware eg 9100 firmware.

can you get to download mode?

provide this info:

how you flashed
what firmware
what is the phone doing now eg bootloop etc etc etc.

Hi there. Not sure if this is of any use. This was posted a long time back and worked for someone from the Geekzone I9000 thread. Might be worth looking into.

Good luck.

There is a slim chance you will be able to fix this by reading the i9000 XDA forum in detail.

You should have backed up your EFS folder. It is not a skippable job. Too late now.
