[q] asking about phone brick! - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

When I finish restore my back up, I reboot my phone and it get brick (JUGG 5.0)!!! I cannot even press any button to turn the screen on!! Already try with different charger, battery and sim card also!! Does someone have any idea please!!

Try the long power button press. Press the power button and hold it for like 10 seconds (Maybe more, it always feels more then 10 seconds). The phone should vibrate 3 times and then you release.
If that doesn't work, then see if you can get into download mode and get Odin to recognize your phone.

I already try, I press it nearly 1 minute, but the screen doesn't turn on!

what exactly are you doing? you were making a backup in cwm, it finished and then you rebooted?

I flash a new Rom, but I don't like it. So I use Darkside Superwipe to wipe all cache and data of that Rom so that I can do the back up. After the back up process is finished,(I see everything runs well). I reboot the phone and it gets brick.

I am not quite understanding. You made backup, or did you restore a backup that you previously made? Anyways, If the phone wont boot try to put in in dl mode and odin it back to stock.

Before you try to odin it, can you get into cwm by holding the volume up, down, and power. Release power when first samsung logo appears. stay holding vol buttons until cwm pops up. can you get into this?

No, it doesn't work. All the buttons freeze now

You most likely are hard bricked, but you still have a slight chance to get into download mode. Not sure how you managed a brick by restoring a backup, but I'll try to help.
Ok, you are going to need the drivers for your phone. http://www.mediafire.com/file/6onrjbyd46j4lhj/T-Mobile_t989_GSII_ADB_Drivers.zip
You need odin as well, download it. http://www.mediafire.com/?u868rqz4qn0ta34
These links were provided by KonstantinKeller
Go here http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ and make an account. I use sammobile because it contains everything in one shot. No need to get radio and crap from other places. After you make an account go to firmware section and type t989 in the search box. download the t989uvkid. ASSUMING YOU HAVE AMERICAN T989
After you have completed the download you are going to need to unzip it with 7zip to extract the tar.
Plug the USB cable into your computer, without plugging it into your phone.
Hold VOL UP + VOL DOWN while plugging in the USB cable to your phone. Stop holding buttons when the ''Warning'' appears.
Press Volume UP and start ODIN (Run as Admin on Vista and 7, just to be safe)
Click PDA and locate the MD5 file you extracted earlier.
WAIT FOR ODIN TO RECOGNIZE YOUR PHONE. THE COM PORT WILL TURN YELLOW AND HAVE A NUMBER
MAKE SURE NOTHING BUT AUTO REBOOT IS CHECKED!!!!!!!
Press 'Start' and be patient. It will take a few minutes because it is a large file.
phone will reboot automatically.
If you can't get the phone to be recognized try different usb ports or a different computer if you have another. This may not work at all, considering it sounds like you are hard bricked. Good luck!

I should download T989UVKID or T989UVKL1? I think my phone get android 2.3.6

Delete that driver setup and use kies. http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/

I think it already died, no driver found again. I try in device manager, it appears as Samsung Android ADB interface, but nothing appears on my screen it's such a hard brick....

Just do this and see if it goes into DL mode.
Plug the USB cable into your computer, without plugging it into your phone.

If not, you have 2 options

OR warranty it through samsung

I should warranty it through Samsung or ask for replacement phone through Tmobile? (I have insurance in my plan). I wonder if Tmobile find out my phone is rooted and I have to pay for the replacement phone. Do you have any idea?

You can go to the tmobile store and tell them it wont turn on. you wont need your insurance plan, the phone carries a warranty against defects for 1 year. Just play dumb and say it wont turn on and demand a new phone.

Do u have any idea if Tmobile check the phone or not?

[Q] T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II soft brick

OK I was trying to flash an unlocked kernal via ODIN last night, something went wrong and now phone is stuck on the phone--!--computer screen. I cannot get past this screen. vol+home+power doesn't do anything but loop to the same screen.
It shows ODIN MODE in red at the top of the screen, but ODIn won't recognize the phone, nor will Kies (not running at the same time). Computer makes USB connected/disconnected sound when I plug and unplug the phone.
I have tried One-Click Unbrick, did not recognize that phone was connected.
Help!!
which model of Galaxy S2 do you have?

there''s currently nothing to flash this phone
it came out only 2 days ago
DEV are still working on finding root
so, the best suggestion is to take it back to the store and get it exchanged
or wait a few more days/weeks until a flashable release becomes available to fix the mistake
I know, I was hasty and now this. Even when there something available to flash, the device isn't being recognized by ODIN. Any troubleshooting help for this?
When I managed to get my Vibrant into that mode I could pull the battery, hold volume up, put the battery in, press and release power (still holding volume up) and it'd kick back into download mode everytime. Once in download mode I could plug the USB in and a running ODIN would see it pop up. If ODIN wasn't running and USB was already plugged in things wouldn't work right.
I haven't tried ODIN on the GS2 yet (I'll wait for a root ). I did find the vibrant nearly impossible to brick though... trust me I unexpectedly tried quite hard.
You might need the newest ODIN for GS2 support, and possibly newer drivers.

I'm a bit new to this, but a custom ROM shouldn't affect your recovery mode. Are you sure you are using the correct buttons and methods to boot recovery?
Might want to make a new thread instead of necroing something from when the phone was 2 days old.
I have GT I9100 and done the same thing and got the same result . stuck at setup connection with odin
Please Help
Go into device manager when is plugged in and if it says qhd-usb or something like that its a hard brick. What tipped me off was you said it makes two noises when you plug in. that's a tell tell sign your hard bricked

You should try to uninstall then reinstall driver, and try another usb port. In my experience, Odin seems to be picky, it only recognizes your phone if you plug it in the usb port that you used in the first time.

Recovery is accessed by holding both vol + and - while starting the phone. Hold them both while pressing the power button, then release the power button when it vibrates, keep holding the vol buttons till you see the recovery screen.

Bricked my Galaxy Gio

Hi XDA,
I've searched in many threads but i can't find an anwser.
I've bricked my Galaxy Gio when i flashed a custom kernel. It was the kernel in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319816
Now it does nothing, I can't boot in any mode, not in download mode, not in recovery mode...
I have android 2.3.3 Gingerbread.
Is there any way to unbrick or is my phone just an expensive decoration now.
Thanks in Advance.
Hi !!!
same new here
This ll work in some cases
Hope this will work in your device as well
Pull the battery to kill the boot loop (or whatever is hosed up), put the phone into downloading mode and re-flash the stock ROM.
Free to try...
Thanks for quick reply but i can't go into download mode as i said. Also my phone is just totally off and won't boot at all. My pc also doesn't detect it when it is plugged in.

If not even adb detects it, i'm pretty sure you're buggered, mate.
did you try and leave the battery out for some 10 min or more?
If adb does not detect the phone after that, then it seems to be a brick for real.
Is your phone stop at the "samsung" when you turn on your phone?
If is this,it's very easy to unbrick
One easy procedure which you might want to try with no guarantee it'll work:
-Remove the battery, microSD and SIM from the phone.
-Prepare the Odin software and your ROM on a known working system
-Connect the phone to the computer with the USB cable.
-With one hand, simultaneously hold Volume down, home and power.
-With your other hand, put the battery in the phone.
I was able to get Odin to detect an otherwise bricked phone this way. I was however unable to get further than the "setup connection" step. Maybe your outcome will be better.

Darkshado

Yes this way usually works. I've tested this way.
that worked for me to on a brick when it didnt even went on, no recovery, download mode etc, after waiting 2 weeks and trying to repair it myself I nearly throw it away, and then suddenly it went into download mode for about 1 or 2 seconds, wich told me the battery whasn't working.. so I started to charge the battery, and hoped it would boot, but it didn't.. using that method given above, I could get into download mode again, and flashes a new stock ROM. now I still have my phone, working.

Help I think im bricked

So I was using Mobile Odin because I was selling my device and the person didn't want AOKP on it so I went and did what i did on my wife's S3 and used mobile odine to flash stock JB TW (Latest update), for some reason when I did mine, after checking the MD5 the phone said it was all good then it was going to start and after it started the phone when to boot up (im guessing) and nothing happened after this, now my device wont go to DL mode or recovery when I try to use any of the finger combos to go into either of this modes.
As a matter of fact when I press the PWR the device does absolutely nothing..
Any helo is appreciated.
Thanks.

Doesn't sound good at all, might need a jtag. I used Mobile Odin just yesterday to go back to stock from AoCP. No problems whatsoever. I did flash stock 3e recovery before flashing the firmware, not sure if that helped.
When you plug it in does the charging indicator show up? (asking this to see if there are any signs of life, and also in the unlikely event that the problem is a dead battery...)

NO-BOOT BRICKS
This is where your phone does NOT turn on, no combo of buttons works and power button does nothing.
DO THIS ONLY WHEN YOU PLUG IN YOUR PHONE AND NOTHING SHOWS UP ON THE SCREEN!!! If else, follow the steps from above.
This method is basically same as above, EXCEPT the way you get into Download Mode as your phone is HARD BROKEN.
1. Download all the files required in the "SOFT BRICKS" section of this post.
2. Remove everything from your phone (SD card, sim, battery).
3. Plug your phone into your computer WITHOUT the battery, as you have already taken it out in the last step.
4. Press and HOLD vol. up and vol. down.
5. As you are HOLDING these buttons, reattach your battery.
6. You should be in Download Mode.
7. Unplug phone from USB
8. Follow steps 4-8 from the "SOFT BRICKS" section.
Troubleshooting:
-Odin stuck at some random process?
*Switch to another odin
*Make sure you did NOT check repartition, if you did, just repeat all the steps over again, of course for the downloading parts, obviously.
-Phone not responsive?
*Try the hard brick section right under
-Phone stuck at Galaxy S logo screen?
*Put it in to DL mode, and run Odin again, it's just a bad install.
-All three ODIN is nonfunctional, stuck or giving "FAILED" errors?
*DO NOT CLOSE ODIN ONCE IT HAS FAILED!
*Unplug your phone
*Replug in your phone, get it into DL mode
* Unplug once it is in DL mode
*Replug and ODIN should recognize your phone
*Leave all the settings the same, then click "Start" again.

Is this method worked with you ?
you hold the wrong button..
while you plugin the charge/usb cable, hold power button+vol down(not both up&down,only down)+home button then put again your battery..
if it still like that just go to ssc..

Oops what happened here ? I thought I wanted to share a solution...NVM

[Q] Did a MEGA WIPE on SGH-I747 and have completely deleted everything. Plz help?

I would like to apologize in advance if I posted in the wrong category (I think it's the right category). As the title says I have done a mega wipe with my Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-I747) and completely removed the OS along with the System Recovery and everything. It is basically just the phone and nothing inside. When I plug it in the computer, my windows OS makes a sound signaling it detected a device but then nothing happens. I do see a red light turning on my Galaxy S3, I think it says it's charging. Tried accessing the recovery mode, but no luck.... So my question is...is there any way to reflash an OS? Thank you so much XDA!!
If you can get to download mode, you can use Odin to flash a rom. Why would you wipe the recovery partition?
You need some JTAG action.

Hi My friend this is happened for me b4 and this what I did
1- take your battery out for about 5 Minutes.
2- Download Odin and The firmware orginal no rooting no custom recovery ** I started with ICS from Samsung-update.com***
3- Start Odin Don't add firmware yet.
4- Put your phone in Download mode by holding Volum down+ home+power and when the screen come push volum up to go to download mode.
5- Now connect your phone to PC and Odin will see your phone on which com.
6- Now add the Firmware by clicking on PDA when it say ready just click start on odin.
7- You are back on orginal Rom ( No root or Custom recovery) and you can go from there.
Good Luck
IF I Help Hit Thank Botton

JTAG repair is done to your phone by an expert with special equipment. You would need to bring your phone to them or ship it off to be fixed. Google '(your city) Jtag repair' . No boot but still having a sound from connecting to PC is a good sign that your bootloader is corrupted.
If the computer makes as noise when you plug it in, try for download mode... Even If the screen of the phone doesn't turn on try to connect and use Odin, sometimes Odin will pick it up...
