BRICKED SAMSUNG i780
my i780 is completely dead.
Even there is no led light when i try to turn it on.
I think that the boot loader has something wrong.
Is there anyone in germany who can restore 'boot loader'?
When the boot loader is restored, i may fix Rom as well.
I am sorry to hear your problems, but 2 points you should consider please:
1) Do not double post
2) this site is HTC devices only
3) There is always a chance that some member knows how to help you
Perhaps better try here:

Good Luck,
thannks, i will try~
Don't know where this post was initially located, but in this Forum (General discussion > Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking ) I think it is right as there are a lot of discussions about the i780.
I have the same problem since Monday.
So any help in this direction would be appreciated.
In parallel I contacted the Samsung support.
Sorry！My engilsh is poor.

Hello I tried to do the rooting my sony ion and what happened was the infinite loop error now can not my computer recognize the phone in flash mode.
What do I do to access my phone in flash mode and finally re aa ROM?
Read the rooting guides in the General sections, please.
Thread closed.
First of all hello everybody
Since this is my first post and im semi noob il try to be as explicit as I can.
I personaly own an lt15i so I have some xp.
A friend of mine gave me his arc in order to root/instal custom rom etc.
-network locked on Orange Romania.
- seems to be not unlockable (bootloader I mean) since I have no Rooting Status section in the service menu.
-2.3.3 Version update dosnt work (via phone or pc companion,it says it has the latest version )
- baseband version 7X30A-AAABQMAZM-1290_21-29
Kernel 2.6.32.9-pref [email protected]#1
Last Section (About compiling smth,its not in english and i forgot its name)
3.0.1.A.0.150
I need to get it to ICS.
What can be done?
The phone is not rooted,its in perfect state and it only has some apps instaled from the market (player etc).Except that its as new as you buy it.
Would rooting resolve the issue?
Would network unlocking?
Any ideas,sugestions or anything else would greatly be apreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Not a very good first post it has to be said. Read the stickys, read them again and once more after that. Then ask any questions still remaining on the relevant threads.

I do not understand this attitude around here,no offence but an answer would of take you less time to write.
I read all the stiky's (except for the themes forum and accesories ) and did not find any helpfull information. Been googling and forum searching the issue for about 4 hours. If you are willing to manualy read 100+ reply's with 1% change of finding helpfull information please be my guest (I used topic search duh)
I might be retarded but : No unlocked bootloader no kernel instal,no kernel instal no ics since its gb kernel. No official update for my phone and I suspect it might be network related.. A simple yes or no answer is hard to get in this days... Anyway thank you for your reply and helpfull information
People get such replies off me when they've clearly showed no initiative. You say you've searched, read the stickys etc but everyone says that despite the fact the fact most of the answers can be found in the stickys.
I've got nothing against People asking questions but when new threads are started on a daily basis asking about things that have been answered or discussed many many times over it gets annoying after a while, and if like you say you've found nothing relating to rooting or unlocking the boot loader that's helpful in 4 hours, then god only knows what you've been searching for.

Ok I might be an idiot.
So basicly the answer is no, maybe this was a retarded topic since SE says
In your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

I thought that could be done if somthing on the phone changed,I guess the answer is no but I dont see any logic in this,wouldnt expect anyone to explain anyway.
Let me rephrase my question then,as a noob user as I am.
Why cant I OFFICIALY UPDATE the phone since ICS is actually released for this phone? If I am again that retarded that I did not find an answer on this forum or via google,I swear to god Il get a nokia 1100 and leave this forum for ever.
Just pick a ftf from the sticky in general and flash it with the flashtool, much easier than waiting, and you'd have to ask Sony why they've not yet released it.

Thank you dear sir! As far as I read I tought I needed to change the kernel in order to get ICS which is impossible.
If you had said that in the begining I would not wasted so much time and now I know more. Instead of mini raging with all that blabla like in the video. I did not honestly know anything about those ftf files,Im guessing they also update the kernel. Honestly I would of never had thought of searching for something like this.

I'll not mention that you've said you were "googling and forum searching the issue for about 4 hours". Yes they flash the kernel too, and to unlock the boot loader you can use the S1 Tool, the link to it is in my guide (see sig), which I assume you will surely have read, at least skimmed through it.

So you have managed to unlock the boot loader and flash the ROM and Kernel? Thanks for compliment, it used to be a sticky but I asked for it to be removed as I wasn't updating it much, but try and keep it up to date these days.

Hello people
I am wishing to flash my Xperia Arc with a stock UK ROM where I do NOT have to unlock the bootloader, I have been reading a very in-depth thread located here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2067008 but for the life of me I cant find where to download a UK Stock firmware and Flashtool, can someone help out as I would like to de-brand my Arc.
Thank You for any help
Don't all answer at once, the rush is killing me, lol
Dead
Oh well looks like this forum is well and truly dead.
Shame
Hi friends,
Need your desperate help here , i guess i have bricked my Acro S.
I was running Stock rom with Stock modifed kernel on my Acro S. It was running perfectly fine without .
Out of curiosity to do a software repair using SUS tool , i reflashed stock kernel on to the phone.
Upon flashing , it drained the battery fast and eventually got switched off.
When i tried to switch it on , its showing only a screen with SONY displayed. Its not giving the Initial boot vibration.
I dont know what happened to the phone , i have been charging it for more than 2 days now.
I am not able to get into fastboot or bootloader modes.
Is there a way to resurrect the phone ? ... Does RIFF box supports Acro S ?
I think you probably flashed the Xperia s by mistake, keep trying to get it in one of the boot modes, use the acro s and xperia s methods (if there's any difference) if that didn't work , i cant help you
Try doing a search on the Forum next time
