[Q] Extra special BRICK on my nexus.

Hi.
I think I done enough damage on my nexus today.
I give up and tomorrow I will tried again. I hope you can help me.
I am willing to pay any one how can help me.
Here is my problem.
First mistake was that I didn't do backup file! Why I didn't do this? Because I already lost my app, date etc. because of my nexus suddenly stuck in start open mode.
That I decided, because I lost everything on my nexus that I will root and unlock nexus. BIG MISTAKE.
1. Everything looks ok, I use galaxy nexus root toolkit v.1.4.
2. I fallow every step
3. My nexus was unlock and root
4. That I went to Google play and download app add free to see if I was successful
5. So far I was
6. Then I read that is got to have on franco.Kernel updater (I bought that on google play for 2,05 €)
And then my nexus shut down and since that I cannot reboot him. The first was showing google on the black screen with unlock sign.
Than i tried to unlocked with root toolkit v.1.4. and i did that.
But then I was stuck on black screen with google sign.
Then I tried odin3 and on ¾ of process everything stopped.
In the end...Now it only showing mobile mark/yellow triangle with exclamation mark/pc...like is something wrong with connection phone to pc.
I can't go to any mode if I press power button + volume up and down because is only show this problem with connection.
And my pc don’t recognized nexus and in device manager I don’t have any adroid drives installed.
Please help me. Please!
I tried everything a known.
Best regards from Croatia.

Do you have a Jig handy? I'm guessing a jig to get it into download mode then odin on a stock ROM and go from there.

I'm new to the Galaxy Nexus, but I'll try to offer assistance.
First off, your phone can no longer boot into neither fast boot nor download(Odin) mode?

I have already tried that, but it has stoped and FAILED. But with oddin v1.87.
Is this diffrent process?
I can see that this odin is for S3, but i have nexus.
I will tried i have nothing to lose.

If you wish, I'd gladly help you, like I helped m4gkeman (Sorry, dude, if I spellt it wrong, again...)
He was in a similar situation with his phone It probably was the exact situation ^^
His phones are both working fine, and haven't had problems since
I'll post the links in a second, there is a bit of info on both

You are using the right Odin downloader So chill... Your phone is not lost, you just need to flash the ROM via fastboot, check the threads I posted, and then you can say if I should help you, the same way I helped him. I flashed everything myself, via teamviewer... If you are interested, let me know I'm always glad to help

Thanks for your offer to help. But I already done what nonione posted and it worked.
Can someone explain what I done wrong (if you can) and what did Odin done in one than less minute to repair nexus back?
From now one I am fascinated on how you guys can save everything.
How can I become one? I really mean it.

All Odin did, is what I would have done. It just re-flashed the OS onto your phone, that's what Odin does

Possible Options for Unlocked R800at

So I've searched around, cant find any straight answer. Also only found old, un-maintained threads.
Anyways heres the problem, When I call people most of the time they cant hear me, but I can hear them, This only happens on anything thats not a stock rom, I'd stick with a stock rom, but they seem sluggish, and hog battery life compared to most custom roms w/kernals. The first thing I thought of was a faulty phone(this was befor the newer phone with unlocked bootloaders) Now I got the same phone(same model, different phone) with unlocked bootloaders. But Im running into the same issue. I've reviewed my APN settings, got the set to what they need to be. The only thing I can come to a conclusion to is the Baseband, I cant seem to find a baseband that works on my current setup, which is CM9 with a freexperia kernal. The kernal i found through the installation instructs for the cm9. So anyone got any input on this? I'd really appreciate some help.

I've been playing with this for the past week now. I have the same issue.
From what I've gathered it's a baseband issue. I've gotta find the link back but you need to flash the correct stock baseband to get everything working. I'll list exactly what I did to get mine working.
EDIT:
Ok found the link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1759544
What I did was flash R800i 4.0.2.A.0.58 EnhancedV2 firmware which I found here
http://www.mediafire.com/?s93d99wisca54es
Then I flashed only the Baseband from here, only 2 boxes should be checked. See below. Only the FTF file. You can flash the other file if you want but it seems to be working fine without it.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27760326/Baseband -36 with libs for Xperia PLAY.rar
Next flash your Kernel. I'm currently using DoomKernel and I'm gonna try out LuPuSv5-GB.
Then go Ahead and flash your rom. I haven't tested many roms yet but thus far I've had no issues with True Ancestor.
In the next few days I'm going to try NTX rom. Then I'm gonna try out Jelly Bean, CM10, with this to see if it works. Thus far I've only tested this with TA so test what you want.
Edit: Seems to be working on everything I try!

[Q] Galaxy s3 international rom on sprint

Hey guys this is my first post but I have a galaxy s3 on sprint model l710 that I successfully rooted and flashed a custom ROM to, the phone worked fine and I decided to flash a new rom so I made a backup of the current rom I had (synergyROM) and proceeded to download a new rom that I must of overlooked it to be intended for the international quad core version.
It goes without saying that I messed up and there might not be a fix to my problem but worth a shot!
After I loaded the zip from my CWM menu I selected reboot and now the phone will not turn on at all, not even to downloaded mode!
If anyone has any idea on how to get it to downloaded mode I can take it from there.

If you flashed an international rom on the phone, the phone is hard bricked and there will be no way for you to fix it personally. You can turn it in to Sprint and play dumb saying you downloaded the recent OTA or whatever and that it wouldn't turn back on.

Does anybody read english words anymore?!?!?!

People should stop doing this. It just drives the costs up for those of us that are responsible enough to do simple things after reading simple instructions.

I think your right that might be my only way the funnything is when I did the it the first time I rooted it I put the international rom on there and it would peer cycle but I could enter the download mode and fixed it but this time I didn't have that luxury.
Thank your for the quick response !

You're right, I don't think people should do that but people will end up doing it either way. The fact that you've already made this mistake once though... how about you stick to looking in the Sprint section for roms? That way you don't end up downloading this random stuff... OR how about you stop flashing roms entirely?
Read the first post of rom threads in it's entirety. I have yet to see a rom that does not explicitly say which GS3 it is for in the first page.

Hurts me to say this but its game over dude. The international version's misc partition is located in the same place as the boot partition for the Sprint variant, so theres no way that that phone is booting up again
Best bet is to take it into Sprint and play it dumb. Good luck :good:
EDIT: Really dude, twice? I think it goes without saying that once you try something and it doesnt work the first time, that doesnt make it more likely to work the second time.

This is why you always stay in the sprint section when you are looking for new roms to flash. They have all the gs3 forums separated for a reason.....

For the hell of it you could try this.. Put it in download mode, even if it doesn't show on the screen and try flashing stock with odin.. You have noting to loose..

[Q] Best rom for most standard google experience

Hello,
I bought a gpad (v500) yesterday and I don't really like the LG bloatware and style etc...
I thought it would be possible to put on the google play edition rom but as I'm reading here that does not seem possible?
What rom would be the closest to a GPE experience or what do you think would be the best rom for somebody loving a nexus 5 stock
also, I already looked at a couple of topics about rooting etc but it seems to me they are all on windows,
does anyone have the steps for mac?
thanks in advance!

1) One of the CM11 ROMs.
2) Follow this link for root instructions. Look at third line in "How do I use it?" for Mac instructions. But before you proceed, read and re-read it until you are 100% confident that you understand every step. And be sure to follow every step explicitly. And I would also recommend reading every post, and every comment in that thread first, also. If there's something you don't understand, then post a question on that thread. If you make a mistake, you risk turning your device into an expensive brick.

There are very few Mac users around here. I would suggest you try a Google search, non specific to G Pad, like "Root LG on macbook", "macbook can't see android device", and some variants like that. Also, try to PM the OP on the two threads that I posted above.

Well, bear in mind that the Nexus 5 stock is really just the generic Android. Personally, I have never seen the appeal for the plain jane experience, but to each his own. If you leave LG's software completely, you will lose their fantastic weather widget (the best I know of in any phone or tablet), the IR Blaster (including its miniaturized version), their video player, QVoice, QPair, and a number of others. Also, as far as I know, the correct gamma reproduction only exists in stock ROMs.

Qpair works fine with AOSP ROMs. There's a specific thread in the Mods thread regarding how to get it to work.

[Q] Camera Failed Problem

Hi,
This is my first post in XDA. I'm pretty sure there are similar posts regarding my issue but none of them have solved my problem. My friend gave me his SGS3 T999 (T-Mobile). But the camera won't work, I just get the following message:
{

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've already tried the following:
1. Flash stock rom
2. Tried other camera apps
3. Tested both front and back cameras with *#0*# USSD code
It may be related but the Accelorometer doesn't work either.
Checked the firmwares:
Rear Camera
Cam FW Ver: GDFD06
Phone FW Ver: GDFI02
Front Camera:
Cam&Phone FW Ver: S5K6A3
I have a hunch, would it be possible to change the camera's firmware verson? That's the only thing I haven't tried so far. I read somewhere that the problem started when they updated the firmware.

You cant manually update the camera firmware anymore. They blocked this in 4.1.2, so you'd have to go back to 4.1.1, but you probably already have newer cam firmware than you'd get doing that. Did it work when you ran the test?
Might want to consider replacing the camera. Pretty cheap part online.

I don't think it's a hardware issue. I tested both the front and back camera but both of them just get the same error message.

Look in /system/cameradata for a file that has your cam firmware in the name. If its not there, that's probably the cause. If it is there, im not sure...

I've tried experimenting with the files in cameradata and found in some threads that dropping a ZH.bin file might fix the issue. but it hasn't after doing so.
When I tried removing the GD.bin file though, it stops crashing the camera but there's still no picture from the lens.

Only other thing I can think to try is to flash the full stock firmware via Odin, then factory reset and test. (This will wipe internal sd fyi)

I'm thinking of replacing the front and back cameras.
I was only able to find parts for shv-e210s/k (korean model), would it be okay to use these parts for the T999?

Probably, as long as they're for the S3. Did you check http://etradesupply.com ? They ship from both hong kong and the US and im quite certain they have the exact parts you'll need.
---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 PM ----------
They're pretty cheap too, so even if it doesn't fix it, you shouldn't be out much money.
I dont recall if it was mentioned, and I don't have a clue if it'd work or not, but you could try flashing a 4.1.1 rom, then use the dialer codes to get to the cam firmware menu, and choose phone to cam f/w write. Its the last thing I could think to try....

Just to give you an update on what has happened so far..
I replaced my faulty front-facing camera, figured it was since the proximity sensor wasn't working.
So right now I am 100% sure that the front-facing camera is working but I still get the same Camera Failed error after testing it through the *#0*# menu. RIght now I'm downloading the 4.1.1 firmware and hoping that this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2625461 will help me downgrade.
After that, fingers crossed that using the phone/cam fw write will work.

Id be very, very, very cautious about doing that. If any part of it doesn't work quite right you'll hard brick for sure.
If it were me, I'd try just the 4.1.1 rom first and only do that process as a last resort. I am curious if it would actually work, but I dont want to see anyone brick to try figuring it out!

Good news is, the downgrade worked.
But the Phone to CAM FW Write is still grayed out and camera isn't working.
After everything I did, I think it's safe to assume that it's the motherboard.

Well its cool to see that that actually worked for downgrading! Ill have to look into it a bit more I suppose. Sorry to hear it didn't help though. If you want to look into it, you can find motherboards for sale on ebay most of the time. Just watch out for blacklisted ones.
