Bricked Nexus? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi guys,
I was trying to root my Galaxy nexus with Odin and chose the wrong CF root file! (The one for SGS3).
Now it seems kinda bricked and I would appreciate any help to get out of this mode, which looks just like this:
(I may not post any url - gz -.-)
Device ----- Yellow Warning Symbol ----- Desktop
just without the text.
I cant boot normally, download mode or recovery.
I appreciate eny help to get this fixed!

Yes SG Nexus, I'll give it a try

Kies isn't able to recognize the device.
When I installed it, it said I have to disconnect the Samsung device.
But there's nothing I can do now

If I remember rightly the phone does not need to be recognised. Go through the process of emergency firmware update and it will install everything based on your device and serial number. Try it.

did your PC recognize the gnex when you plug it in?

If you have desktop you are away to far from a bricked phone... Use this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392310 read carefully if you want to do this stuff to your phone you should know what your doing... By the question that you made i can tell that you are a noob. When you finish the process download a cyanogen ROM in here http://get.cm/?device=maguro&type=nightly dont forget to flash GAPPS

In Kies there is a list of devices for the emergeny recovery, which is empty in my case.
Windows recognizes that a Samsung mobile USB CDC Composite Device is connected.

Forget kies.. Download TOOLKIT and follow the steps

If you want help, you need to give a ton more info. You say bricked, so it was rooted, you flashed a custom ROM.... What have you done to your phone??

Have you tried contacting AT&T warranty center? I did a bad flash on my S3 and fully bricked it. AT&T swapped it out without question. I was even able to drive to one of their local offices (not stores) to replace it without waiting for one to be mailed.

+1 Solid USB is a must for this type of work
+1 Odin recognition - if Odin recognizes the device, you can generally save the phone.

Rooting P930

Ive had this phone for about a week and it came with software version bell 20e on ICS. My WiFi worked but was only able to get gsm data speed.(below 3g). I tried flashing many ROMs but my WiFi wouldn't work on any of them (only on the ICS Rom the phone came with). Then I tried 2 unbrick method to try and flash a new baseband/firmware (not sure which is which)... the first one gave me the original Korean ROM with all the Korean apps(I believe it was 18f kdz). The second one gave me the att ROM (10f kdz). The Korean one gave me WiFi and data but I could not root (tries superoneclick a million times and also tried manual cmd method). The att one gave no WiFi and I haven't tried the data.
My main goal is to be rooted so I can flash cm 10 or 10.1 with at least 3g data and WiFi. I actually really like this phone but all these road bumps are making me want to settle with my old phone optimus 2x. Can anyone help me please? The phone came from China I believe. My carrier is fido in Canada.

FINALLY, I'm rooted. I had to change some things around in the Path Variable string, then i tried Superoneclick first try rooted. Now Installing CMW and flashing roms, I assume i just download Rom Manager from the play store and flash cmw like that right?
So.. Is my phone bricked completely? I tried using cmd to flash 2.3.5 ATT stock.. when i typed in the first code (dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8) to put boot.img from sdcard to phone, it said that there was no space. However the other codes worked just fine. Then when i turned off the phone to try and put it in recovery mode as the guide instructed my phone screen remains off. Is my phone dead?
Ouch not a good sign. You will know by this hold down volume up and plug into the computer if it goes into download mode you are good but if the screen stays off and the computer gives you an error it is dead and will need to be sent off for repair. Good luck.

Whenever you install new samsung usb drivers in windows
it's always best to uninstall all other samsung usb drivers first
then restart windows.

Hmm.. strange.. Try Aerowinder's signature and run through all the steps again but on a different pc. If the drivers install properly and device is recognized then you'll know what your real problem is.
Be sure to try different usb ports if needed to recognize the phone.

[Q] ATT 850 won't boot

I was trying to enable ART on my G3 with Xposed installed and followed some advice that said to replace app_process file in the system folder. Somehow I think the file was deleted altogether. Restarted and now my phone wont boot at all. Tried doing a factory reset and still not booting. I'm stuck at the LG splash screen and the LED is blinking. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Open up device manager (right click my computer then manager then device manager) find your phone and change it to com port 41

Dumb question lol. You're in download mode right? You powered off then held volume up then plugged phone in?
And you put the dll file in the previous screen? Idk what else could be the issue if none of this is working. I'd try another USB port on the computer. If that's a no go try to get help from the original thread that has the files and stuff maybe the op there can offer assistance

Thanks for trying to help. After many hours of trying everything I just took it back to an AT&T store today and got it replaced.
You have to use the TOT restore the same way as the G2 had to. There is a guide in android development I believe.
