XT557 Defy (Republic Wireless) - Defy General

I'm attempting to flash an unsupported ROM to my DEFY using RSDLite, but the only drivers that I'm able to get XP to see this device are from Motorola's website and it's called "MotorolaDeviceManager." It loads the drivers as Motorola AT COM port, but RSDLite does not recognize any devices.
Please help. Also, can somebody suggest an SBF to load? It turns out that once a phone is deactivated from Republic Wireless's network, it cannot become activated again, so even if this phone starts working after ordering a replacement, they won't activate again.
Nevermind! keys: power+vol+ sent into flash. I kept trying power+vol-+vol+ which turns the phone into a com port.

Just a word of warning for anyone else who is trying to do this... Republic Wireless' Rom contains a lot of things that makes the phone itself work on their network... Unless you can find some way to bring those into a new rom... You would lose your ability to use Republic Wireless as your carrier. I see that techjohnny has deactivated his phone already, so I'm sure he doesn't care.
Have you made any progress with adding another rom? I'm curious.

Fully Bricked Galaxy Nexus! HELP!

Okay so my friend bricked his galaxy nexus (Gave it to me because he said its bricked) of course i accepted it lol. But i tried to fix it i did everything i could from reading forums i swear i have worked forever looking for a fix. It is completely unresponsive no download mode. no ADB connection because when it plugs into a computer it shows up as OMAP 4440 or something like that. i have tried all kinds of different drivers and i have tried on multiple computers (Xp, Windows7, even a mac) he said he was flashing the sdcard or something and unplugged it by accident. So i could understand that being a issue since the phone only has a internal sd card. Anyone know how to get it back? i havent seen a Jtag yet for it and i have a Jig for my Galaxy Sii Skyrocket but it doesnt work on the nexus (FYI to anyone out there the jig works on my dads samsung windows phone) HELP!
You tried different drivers? You should just use the most current ones for the phone. Did you try the new toolkit mskip posted? Did you isntall the SDK?

Thanks for the response i didnt use mskips i dont think. i have tried the galaxy nexus toolkit 6.0 or whatever but i have tried all kinds of drivers including the google official galaxy nexus i515 or something like that. it shows up as omap 4440 in app manager and disconnects and connects constantly then says device didnt install properly. what do you mean by the sdk? i cant find any way to access my phone. i think i tried something with sdk but im not sure
Yes i read up i did do that GNex Toolkit v6.0 and it wouldnt find my phone (Because of the omap 4440 disconnect and reconnect thing i believe.
First off, on't use a toolkit.
Second, when you plug it in, go to device manager, right click the "OMAP 4460" and click install driver. Either install PDANet or find the driver online and your phone should be able to be used in fastboot.
Finally, if your (Or your friends) phone was "Fully Bricked" it wouldn't be recognized by the computer, it wouldn't turn on, it would literally not be able to do anything except sit there, the fact that the computer sees it means that it is "Soft Bricked" which is much less serious.

I couldn't get PDAnet to work for me either. It asks you to enter Debugging mode and I can't get into android
I cant get into android neither thats the problem... it is unresponsive except for the fact that it says omap 4440 over and over. im gonna play with it more when i get home but im currently in school. LOL

I can get mine into CWM, but whenever I'm flashing a ROM, it reboots itself.
Install PDANet and when it asks for your phone, go into Task Manager and force close the process. This will keep the driver/program installed without needing your phone and it should then be seen in recovery.
Not working still :/
Thanks for highjacking my post twinky lol. i have seen the answer to yours around... google a little more.

My phone goes into boot loader and download mode however every time I flash Stock it finishes successfully and goes to the same google screen its always stuck on. I'm kinda a n00b so if anyone could help me with this (try to have a lot of detail) I would be grateful. Thanks
It sounds like what I did to my Galaxy Note before I bought my Nexus. When unrooting I overwrote my bootloader with a missed character through ADB. I tried everything, naked drivers, ODIN, all it would come up with was OMAP on the PC. I ended up having to return it to AT&T. Ask him if he was trying to root it the old way through ADB.

samiaziz, make sure you're wiping everything before flashing a stock rom. It wouldn't hurt to wipe system, cache and dalvik and then restart recovery (in advanced menu) and wipe again before flashing the stock rom.
Ok, as long as it shows up, it's still working
OMAP440 is the processor, which means, that is is working, but the bootloader is corrupt, or missing. I'd say it's corrupt (Flash-error)
The best way I've found, check this website: http://www.mobiletechvideos.com and see if they have a JTAG solution... (My JTAG device will arrive in a few weeks )
Even if they don't, send it in, and they'll figure out a way to do that I think they do some special offer, if you send it in for testing purposes...
But, other than that, there's no way I can help you. The firmware is completely fu**ed...
Tried That
I have already tried getting into recovery but that dosnt work. it takes me to the google splash screen
2 words: fastboot, linux.
sent from my i9250
Instead of JTAG-ing it, you could always try this. The maker of the Riffbox JTAG has come out with a solution for unbricking by reflashing the OMAP processor.. Aptly named OMAPFlash.
I've used it with success several times, but also had it fail on me. It can't hurt though, if your phone is already bricked.
If it's coming up with OMAP4460 (even briefly) when the phone is plugged into your computer without a battery, you are able to run the program. You just need to install the drivers for it.

SGS3 failure during odin flash; stuck

So I somehow during my flashing adventures got to the point where my sgs3 would no longer recieve 4g/3g signal but only 2g. I reverted to stock rom, still had the issue (4.0.4), and it wouldn't let me upgrade to jelly bean, it told me "unable to connect to network" when I tried system update. So i took to the fixing my imei number, which apparently did something as I was then able to connect to the server and upgrade to jelly bean, with one problem; I was still getting 2g. I continued to try to use the rest of the guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801997) but on jelly bean my computer would no longer recognize my phone through odin or qpst, etc, but I could view the files. I could do nothing to get it to bring up a port I could connect to. I downloaded/installed/uninstalled/installed the driver many times and still couldn't get it to connect. Like an idiot I tried through odin to flash back down to 4.0.4 so I could reestablish connection and continue fixing my 2g signal, but it quit halfway through and said "Can't open the serial(com) port" and didn't flash, so whenever I tried to turn on my phone i got the firmware upgrade error and telling me to connect to kies and use recovery mode, which I did. However, Kies wouldn't recognize my phone through it. It's drivers never connected, and it just sits there saying connecting. Samsung's help/support over the phone was literally WORTHLESS ("indian accent" Take da battery out ov your phone, sir. Wait 10 seconds. Put it back in..... They literally told me at one point "Go into menu, settings..." me-" In my phone?" him "Yes that is correct" me "Thats my problem dude, I CANT TURN IT ON") and I currently have a ups label to ship it in to get repaired, but I want to know if there is anything I can do before sending it in and waiting 5-7 days without a cell phone. Thanks in advance to help
Odin the stock4.1.1 software pre rooted or not.. My phone froze at samsung screen but just reboot and it will be fine
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Did you even read the post...? haha it's not that simple, or otherwise I would've fixed it.
make sure you are using the samsung cable that came with your phone.
I don't have the cable that came with my phone, but that has never stopped me before and I don't see why It would affect my computers ability to recognize my phone if it was perfectly capable of doing such before.
So, the system won't detect anything when you plug it in, not even after a reboot?
Well, there are a couple things you can try.
First, uninstall Kies and the Samsung USB drivers.
Reboot.
Install the drivers in my signature (they are older ones, but stable - unlike the newer ones).
If that doesn't work, try a new cable and USB port on your system.
If that doesn't work, it's bad hardware.
This will end with you flashing a stock image, probably.

Glad you got the problem solved. The reason I said to use the samsung cable is that I was able to root and flash my first rom with a non samsung cable then after that it wouldn't work unless I used the samsung cable.

[Q] Boot loop: Can't enter Firmware Upgrade mode

I'm posting a question as I've spent days searching with no luck.
I have an LG G3 that while in normal use got very hot and turned off. Now it gets stuck at the LG logo and doesn't boot. I tried a normal factory reset but this just goes back to the LG logo and nothing happens.
So I'm trying to get into the download mode "Firmware Upgrade" screen to flash the stock rom. I hold down volume Up, and plug in the USB and it gets to the little "Download Mode" icon but does not continue to "Firmware Upgrade" and the computer (I've tried 3 different systems) wont recognize the phone.
Interestingly at some point while being in download mode it switched to fastboot, I have no idea how this happened but I was able to run commands on the phone using fastboot.exe, however I have not been able to get back to fastboot since.
Also I'd really like to be able to recover the data on the phone.
Any help would be appreciated.

I hope not, this phone was purchased in Media Markt in Germany and it's not covered by warranty here. LG Australia said it would cost up to $260 for them to fix it and the phone could possibly be downgraded if the mainboard needs to be replaced. I don't know if it would be possible to claim the German warranty.

if adb cant be able to be able to connect and stay connected ( bootloop or restarting problems )
then take SP Tool flasher to flash the Scatter MT6582 from stock KK by only remove battery first and let it out.
plug the universal usb port on cable but on the end of the cellphone dont plug it yet...
in SP Tool check the checkboxe in settings to checksum DL DA. and select usb high speed and W/O battery options.
then when the scatter is loaded then you ready to flash. the latest SF Tool is recommanded.
click on Download on SP tool when done the steps. it will hang on idle but at this moment press de volume down button first.
keeps holding that button until the end of flashing process and when hold it now plug the cable to your computer and bam you will be able to flash it to stock or custom your desire 320 without problems and its will not disconnect during process since you holding the volume down button.
that's how I did resolve my problem about months and find my own solution.
hope this helps... dont be shy to let me know if it worked for you or if you still need assitance.
have a nice day.

After searching and searching, seems someone actually had the same problem as I do. But for my part even when pressing the volume down before connecting to the computer doesn't keep the phone from connecting and disconnecting, even tried all the buttons combination you can imagine.
I'm wondering if it could be a driver issue, in your case was your device disconnecting every 5 seconds? And do you have any special driver that I should be aware of, personally I have Preloader USB VCOM port version 2.0.0.0...
I hope you got something in mind, I don't know where to look anymore haha.
Thanks again
PS I did everything else, remove battery, disable signature, got scatter MT6582 + download agent for flash tool (also updated), tried with ADB but can't detect device (of course it keeps deconnecting :silly: )

even if you have mediatek usb vcom driver or adb drivers else original driver it works on all with the button press.
but set the setting like I said USB support normal without battery W/O and high speed.
don't set it to mediatek com ports on SP tool. but if you have mediatek com port change to port 20. that's what I did change the port com.

What version of SP Flashtool are you using?
Well I have tried everything everyone has said so far
No matter what I try I get
BROM ERROR: S_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (2004)
[H/W] Fail to download DA to baseband chip's internal SRAM!
Have tried using both
SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1352.01
SP-Flash-Tool-v5.1532.00
Both do the exact same thing, tried checking the AD DL ALL with Checksum boxes, unchecked usb high speed and full speed. Pressing the down button before plugging it it, after. Nothing I do seems to work, in the device manager it just keeps appearing and disappearing over and over
I think a found the solution guys. After a sleepless night , I stumble into a russian forum who got the same problems as ours.
The correct version of the SP FlashTool we need for our device is the SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1348.01_SEC (http://mediafire.com/download/eaar07r2nm1v7t6/SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1348.01_SEC.rar). I read somewhere that it was because of the HTC Desire 320 has a security boot.
If you got a 4008 error, it's probably because you're using Win8-Win10. You need Win7. I'm installing Win7 on my PC right now, so I will tell you more about it later.
If you looking for the stock roms, I found this site : http://easy-firmware.com/index.php?a=browse&b=category&id=1449

If you got a CID Error, it's probably because you have flash the wrong rom for your device. I didn't have to restore the NVRAM after this flash, but maybe you will have to.

I think a found the solution guys. After a sleepless night , I stumble into a russian forum who got the same problems as ours.
The correct version of the SP FlashTool we need for our device is the SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1348.01_SEC (mediafire.com/download/eaar07r2nm1v7t6/SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1348.01_SEC.rar). I read somewhere that it was because of the HTC Desire 320 has a security boot.
If you got a 4008 error, it's probably because you're using Win8-Win10. You need Win7. I'm installing Win7 on my PC right now, so I will tell you more about it later.
If you looking for the stock roms, I found this site : easy-firmware.com/index.php?a=browse&b=category&id=1449

Thanks for it, i've got that problem after trying to install custom recovery. I also got the error 2004 but i fixed myself by using DA_SWSEC.bin. Not sure if it work for ur guys or not.
I also learn that althrough HTC 320 is Mt6582 devices but we cant use the method they wrote in mtkrom site to install custom recovery. Now i can find the stock rom of my phone to check flashing custom rom via splashtool. I used telus rom above and i got problem wrong CID and the flash camera not work, if i have msg or phone call missing, it flashes like notice led! At least now my phone is working ok then. I'll try to contact HTC to get stock rom of my phone

Yeah I forgot to mention that, you need to use the DA_SWSEC on the SP Flashtool. What's your htc 320 model? Your probably have the wrong rom. The telus one is only for NA device.
EDIT: Are you using the HTC Desire 320 with dual sim: http://drop.ndtv.com/TECH/product_database/images/15201573649PM_635_htc_desire_320.jpeg
If this is your device, the Telus rom is not for your device.
This is the EU rom: http://www.mediafire.com/download/z...NSE53_htc_europe_1.00.401.3_by_jamesjerss.zip

SM-T800 Soft Bricked, PC Won't Recognized and "Yes, I already tried that"

Samsung SM-T800 is basically a paperweight.
Out the outset, let me just say that I have already:
-voided my warranty and tripped KNOX (it was rooted before all of this happened)
-Tried different USB ports and USB cables
-Tried different USB drivers
My PC won't recognize it, and I have tried Universal Drivers, and Samsung USB drivers, which means Odin and ADB can't help
I can only boot into download mode
When I tr to boot into recovery, I get the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" message
And to add insult to injury, I can't even turn the damned thing off. Every "battery pull" (Power+Volume down) leads back to "Firmware upgrade encountered an error" message
I have been wrestling with this thing for 2 days already, scouring these forums. And every one ends with "Oh I just reloaded my stock ROM with Odin" ARGHHHHH!
Thanks in advance
OK I'm gonna start off by saying I'm trying to help you. If you get smart and angry then I'll leave you to it.
Why am I saying this? Because I've been down this road many times with people saying this that and the other doesn't work when in the end in most cases it turns out to be user error and I can tell you're frustrated.
I've read your post regarding what you've tried but you're still gonna have to bear with it if you want help.
The first thing I need to ask is, you know the difference between download mode and recovery mode? No I'm not trying to treat you like an idiot.
Sometimes the firmware error can be cleared by booting to recovery and wiping cache.
How did you end up in this scenario?
If the above doesn't work the first thing you need to do is put the tablet in download mode.
Connect the USB cable, navigate to device manager, look for something along the lines of Samsung mobile USB composite device under USB devices.
If you see an exclamation mark instead then you will have to manually install the USB composite driver.
Once you see that device listed you are ready to use odin in download mode.

First of all, thanx for the reply. I appreciate, and i probably shouldn't have written the post after being up all night and bieng pissed...probably came off a little snarky...
Having said all of that, yeah, I'm definitely in download mode:
(on screen right now)
ODIN MODE
Product Name: SM-T800
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
Secure Download: Enabled
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0x0000)
AP SWREV: A1
[Picture of Android icon]
Downloading...Do not turn off target
So, that bit is sorted out
UPDATE: I did not have my SD card in the tablet before...now I put it in and I got the "USB devices not recognized"
I go to Device Manager, find the device with the yellow exclamation, right click,
"Update driver software"
"Browse computer for driver software:
Navigate to "Program Files/Samsung/USB Drivers"
The best software for your device is already installed
Any suggestions?
And again, apologies for sounding like a jerk before
"
UPDATE 2
OK, so I took another swig at it..
downloaded "Samsung USB Driver V1..5.59"
Rebooted
Opened ODIN
[Added]
Started reinstaling firmware
[Removed]
ODIN lost connection and I got the "USB device not recognized message" again
Used a cpl different ports, no change
I am wondering if maybe it is a battery issue at this point? Because as I stated before, I havent been able to turn the tablet off...
Either it is in download mode, or it is in "FIrmware upgrade encountered an issue" on screen
Thanks in advance

OK this looks like you have the driver installed so you shouldn't have the exclamation mark in device manager.
You can however install the driver manually.
Right click the device with exclamation mark, choose browse my computer, let me pick from a list of drivers. Look for Samsung Mobile CDC composite device, click next.
Driver should now install.
There are several reasons for the USB not recognized error. Most common is a bad USB cable, bad USB port or driver conflicts.
Ensure the ports are native and not an add-on card.
I suggest a completely different cable first.
Whatever happens don't move the device or cable when flashing.
Also get some charge in the device with the stock charger.
If you still get issues installing the stock Firmware then I suggest trying to install my latest build of TWRP.
With this we have more options and can install the stock Firmware with it.
Thanks for response
Ok, I used a totally different laptop and ODIN worked fine, I dunno what the deal was...but now i have a different problem...
I seem to be stuck in a "Wifi Turning on..." loop
The Wifi never comes on though
I have seen other posts about this, but they all seems to come back to " factory reset" (which I did two more times today) or verify the date on the device (which I have also done)
Is it possible to download a radio image ONLY? Because I am wondering if that is the problem....

Most likely a baseband issue.
You need to use the correct firmware for your device and region.
Did you flash the whole firmware?
Yeah, downloaded the whole firmware
Couldn't find version for USA proper...ended up using XEF (which is France I think)
Build number LRX22G.T800XXU1BOCC (Lollipop)

USA is XAR(Cellular South)

Ah, I didn't think I should use that one since my tablet is the WiFi model, not the LTE model
But I will give it a shot!
Thanks!

That is for the wifi model. LTE model is T805.

Ah. The "Cellular South" part threw me off
Unfortunately, still didn't work as far as getting the WiFi and Bluetooth working.
I refrlashed the firmware
Did a cpl factory resets
Still nothing
I'm thinking I should root it and see if some file permissions are screwed up or something. ..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using XDA-Developers mobile app
UPDATE: I rooted with CF AutoRoot and installed Custom recovery TWRP
did another factory reset
and still no Wifi/Bluetooth
I'm out of ideas at this point....

Did the wifi work before you obtained this device?
If all partitions flashed successfully then the wifi should be working.
What is your baseband build number reported as in settings?
Also check your IMEI no.
If that is the default IMEI instead of the original then someone may have trashed the EFS partition.
By the way are you certain this is a t800 and not a t805 or t807?
The Wifi went out a few days ago, tried a factory reset first
Then I remembered the last time this happened I did a firmware re-flash to fix it
It was during the re-flash where I ran into problems and I came to the forum.
I attached a screenshot. Model definitely SM-T800, but no IMEI and no Baseband build...
Thanks!

Baseband probably doesn't show because it's wifi only model.
However it's strange there is no Status page.
You can get this info using an app called Samsung phone info on play.

Ironically, with no WIfi access...hahahahaa....
I will try to find the apk and sideload it
I sideloaded the Samsung phone info app...
Attached screenshots of the tablet info
What's immediately apparent is no IMEI number. This is a problem.
Is your EFS folder accessible?
