Hi guys,
Any idea for what to do with a black screen brick S5660? I tried most things i could come up with for like a month now xD
Maybe its time to ask for help hehe
i went from 2.3.3 to 2.3.6 then put superuser on it with root.
Then putted cwm on it and last of all rom manager then flashed a wrong rom it seems ( was late didnt pay enough attention and i was stil bit noobie back then )
and after that it never came back alive shamely.
I tried every button combo and only thing windows7 x64 seems to see is download mode with a black screen so i tried Odin but its stuck on connection setup always with whatever ROM i use and on whatever port.
Also tried my gf's comp same story.
I even tried vmware and did a guest windows7 32 on it to flash but same story blegh
Any ideas? would be awesome if someone knew the answer
One thing, never use ROM manager on a Gio it will be flashed to a brick
you can test this..
coz my phone is oke..

Lol i noticed. Thats why i said i was a bit of a noobie when i tried
It went straight to brick black mode but after all this reading on this and other forums i wont do that ever again trust me ;p
Thnx nhascyerg i will check that link and see if i tried it allready or not ^^
You managed to get your phone up and working again? How?
I flashed CWM Recovery 4.0.1.5 with Rom Manager... bad move indeed.

Sorry for late reply was on vacation etc lol BUT no in the end i couldnt get it to work on my own even with USB jig/every stock custom rom kernel bla bla in the world
Took it to shop and they switched my lil motherboard on it ( was fcked ) then it worked.
ps: phone now runs on cm9 with cwm 5+ and all kind of funny zhizzle
Shame the screen went poof on vacation when it dropped 10cm on a matras ( not joking )
So its black AGAIN with nice white dim lights when it refuses to switch on the LCD but the OS works lol
BUT THIS COULD MAYBE HELP PEOPLE
I can RUN it and SEE what it does with Android screen capture and sdk monitor ( very handy when ur screen is broken but OS isnt or in bootloop but u cant see screen cause its broken and ur wondering why doesnt it work :'( <-- my phone did that )
AND i can even TYPE in the screen with Remote web desktop + remote control add-on + wifi keyboard app with my OWN USB pc keyboard
( very handy when screen is broken on a non psyshical keyboard phone right? whaha
Tbh i didnt know any of these programs before this happened so i researched how to remote control an Android device on a desktop with a broken screen .
Hardly any info on that so here and there i read tried and added **** togheter for 4 days +- till it came out almost perfect ^^
Shame the screen is still broken lol but i got full control over it now 4 days ago that was 0% so im happy
EDIT: Try Android screencast. It shows the screen + u can click control it + keyboard when rooted over USB
Hey Guys , I don't really know what happened to my Note 2. I just ended a call and my screen gone mad. I'm using stock rom and i tried everything that i can but nothing changed. I think thats a hardware problem (or software mybe) but any advice will be very helpfull. Thanks..

Can you load something like recovery or download mode? And get the screen normal .. If its still colorfull in those modes.. Then yes mostly likely its hardware problem that might be with the signals the goes to pixels that tells what color to light.. And you should take it to an expert.
But if recovery or download mode loads with proper screen.. Then its a software problem.. A format might help.

Screen is same in recovery or download mode. I succesfully formated with stock rom nothing changed. Today i sent it to samsung service we'll see what the problem was.
I flashed a rom to my device from needrom website. It was a custom rom based on the latest test version b116 with samsung s4 UI. After the device rebooted itself the vibration started and never stopped since then. .The phone booted but screen is used upside down I mean for the button at the bottom you need to touch at the top of the screen etc. I tried updating with official b111 using sdcard but it doesnt work. The recovery starts but it fails everytime ı try it. I just bought the phone 3 days ago and now ı can not use it anymore it is very annoying. Can anyone please help me ??

It is not a s4 rom. ıt is just a customized rom based on original p6 rom. ıf you can not help me please do not "mess up" the forum. ı am lookin for someone who can help me !!!
If the ROM is based on B116, try putting the official B116 firmware on your SD-card (via another phone, flashcard reader, whatever) and try reflashing the phone that way. Reflashing obviously done by holding volume UP + DOWN keys pressed, turning the phone on while keeping UP and DOWN pressed, and letting the phone force-flash that firmware.
Let me know if it helped.

am not messing up nothing .. u messed up your phone .. why u not just satisfied what u got ..
do u have recovery in the phone ? u need to copy official rom and flash it via cwm ..
right now ı am downloading b116 but i think it will take more than 2 hours maybe because of the overload on the server it is being downloaded. ı was gonna try that but ı am not sure if it works but ı will try. unfortunately I don't have cwm installed on the device. and in the recovery mode ı can not do anything with the buttons
btw thank you so much Bakpoeder for you help. ı will definitely let u know about if it works . now ı am waiting for the download to be finished. and the problem ı faced while trying to update with a lower version is that even though ı put the update package into dload folder in sdcard it says no update package is it possible if the device can not read the sdcard ?
