Hello guys, i have a problem with my sgs .. after downgrade from jv9 to froyo i've got my sgs bricked.. cannot enter do download mode by 3 button combo and by usb jiig is well ( jig is working, checked on sgs2) only thing happening is when i connect it by usb cable to my laptop i getting info the windows cannot find the driver for it and after few seconds is disconnecting.
Any ideas how to get it back to life ?
Thanx.
ps. sorry for my english. Cherrs
What happens when you turn it on normally?
At what screen does it stop?
Can you enter recovery mode?
its totally dead.
Remove the battery, wait a few minutes ( In fact, 30 sec should be alright ) the put it back. Press power button, if you see the phone -- triangle -- pc image, then just remove the battery again, put it back and plug your jig. If you see nothing i'm almost sure your screwed.
Steps:
First Remove your battery and wait 60 seconds
Then put the battery back in
There will be a small hole in the right side of the camera like a soft reset hole
take a paper clip
insert it in the hole and wait 25 seconds while pressing it in
then go into the download mode but the volume down +home button + power button
If the button method doesn't work try using the jig
Now it should work

Can you try running USBDeview from http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html . You should see all your existing devices like mouse, keyboard etc. Then plug the phone in, and if it shows up in USBDeview tell me what it says in these columns for the phone device:
VendorID, ProductID, USB Class, USB SubClass
You may need a couple of tries to get all the numbers if it's disconnecting after a few seconds.
I'm interested because it could be the type of brick we are trying to fix in this thread where the bootloaders have been corrupted and it is going into processor recovery mode. We don't have a fix for you but if I'm right it will confirm that you need to get the phone reflashed by Samsung. Ask them how they do it while you're there.
hmm i cannot see any hole on the right side of the camera.. there is only connector looks like gps antenna.
i tried on 3 different batteries and i tried to take battery out for few minutes and still not work..
hmm so what if there is that bootloader fault?
this is o2 brand phone so do you think guys can i just go to o2 and say that stops working after kies upgrade or some rubbish like that ? do you think that will work ?

Just say to them i was updating my phones software via kies and my pc crashed because of some other application so it got interrupted in the half way now i can boot into my phone.
do you think they will accept it ? i mean .. if they will fix it and say this is my fault then i'll need to pay for this fix ?
anyone guys has experience with it ? how long it takes ?

Yes, they won't be able to tell what caused it, though your custom firmware could all reappear if they only reflash the bootloaders. But at least your phone will be fixed.
hmm ok but if they will know i had custom firmware they will charge me for repair ?
how log it normally takes ?
actually i was flashing the branded o2 froyo firmware while it happens.. but i got info from odin unsuccessfully flashed...

The brand market can see if u rooted the phone,
But i i also got this kind of brick, when i instaled a 9000m modem to my int i9000,
what i did i heated the phone, this is not a joke, a heated the phone used adb to enter download mode and i flashed stock 2.2 from samfirmware.com
The phone newer worked well so my provider changed the phone and didn't saw that i root it.
try adb and heating than the 3button combo.
good luck

Yep, that confirms that your initial bootloader is trashed and the CPU has gone into USB recovery mode because it couldn't load the bootloader. The only fix currently is to get Samsung to reflash it, or get someone with a Riffbox or other JTAG equipment to fix it. Heating the phone will not help you, neither will reinstalling Samsung phone USB drivers.

Well mate; if we are talking about the usual samsung galaxy s , when we open the lid there definitely is that small gutter with a hole in it . That little diaphragm can be pressed by a blunt pin.
Your provider should fix the phone no problem.

I Have been using cm10.1 nightly rom on my phone.... one fine day the phone stopped working, and it doesnt start up.
if i connect it to power supply, i am able to reach the recovery and change roms.... so then i changed rom back to default one by flashing PD98IMG.zip.
After that too same response from phone.
Phone doesnt start unless connected to charger.
If connected to charger and i turn it on... it goes up to the level were we can select language to be used in the phone... and then it restarts, also can still enter recovery when phone is connected to power supply.
Do you have any clue on the problem ?
Is it any hardware problem ?
How can i get the phone working again ?

Try booting without the sdcard. Then see if you can get a different battery...That doesn't sound to be a software issue.

Dont think battery is damaged !
When in bootloader, or when phone is on the language selection state, try installing a stock ruu to see if it fixes the issue. If it does not it is 90% a hardware issue. If you can't find a ruu write here I will give you a link to one, if you would upload a picture of the bootloader for me(or write your radio version here)

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1711009 have u tried this and just get SAMSUNG_USB_Driver 1.5.23.0 and nothing else no kies required when installing driver just skip the update and it should work and search for a code to enable mtp as I forgot it to enable the mode which I tried that time.
I tried all and trust me the solution was changing usb port on the phone keep finger crossed and hope it works for you that way.
I am trying to go to download mode with my G3 ( mobile is working fine ) but when I press and hold Volume up and connect USB cable to PC, the phone turns on and boots normally.
I noticed even in normal situation if I turn off my mobile and try charging while it's off, it turns on automatically!
Any comments how I can go to download mode?
I have lost the original USB cable coming with the device. Can it be the reason? Is LG G3 usb cable special?

I use a diferent cable from the original and dont have that problem, can you try a diferent usb 2.0 port?
Is your G3 stock or does it have a custom recovery?

It's so weird to me. This is my first mobile phone with such a problem. I've tried all possibilities. USB 2.0, different cable, different pc, different OS. All I get is a restart when I hold down the up key and connect the cable! I have bought this D855 from Hong Kong and it's on rooted stock 10b and all I get from my 4G sim is E (EDGE) while I have activated lte in mobile network menu. So, trying another official rom is critical to me.

It's on stock as without download mode, I can't flash any rom or recovery.
It's more weird when even ADB can't send phone to Download mode. When I enter "adb reboot download", mobile is only rebooted.
By the way, I wonder if it's also so for you that when phone is off, if you connect charger, device is turned on! I remember when I had Samsung, when mobile was off and I connected charger, a battery icon showing the charge progress appeared only.

I asked about what recovery you had.. cous I had a similar problem with my samsung s3.. when phone off and conect cable the phone starts up. That depended on some bad recovery. Also on my old Htc desirehd things like that happened. But i dont have any deep knowleage about this..
Have you tried to use Lg's official update tool. Under that app you could update phone after a bad update. (Via the menu in app) It would be my next try.. that resets the whole phone but it could be the cure. Take a backup of the internal sd first.

Install and look for the earlier mentioned option.

I flashed Fulmic rom for my G3 D855 today. Everything was well when I discovered until I discovered, that camera app is not showing. The fix was to download the fix from Fulmics app and flash it via TWRP. I downloaded the fix and rebooted to install the fix. After reboot I got stuck in bootloop, when I try to access recovery, it goes to TWRP first logo and stays there. Nothing happens. When I try to access download mode, it shows the first download mode logo and stays there. Computer detects the phone in device manager as "LGE Android MTP Device". LGUP shows model as "Unknown". Cant do nothing more. Every help is appreciated.
Are you sure you flashed the fix ? Because it seems like you flashed something else that messed up your device

Can't enter twrp, just shows TEAMWIN logo with blue background and stripes. Nothing more happens.
Download mode text shows up, pc makes connection sound but I dont know what to do after that. I tried using LGUP but that showed that model is "Unknown".
Ah, try lg flash tool 2014 or lg flashtool (and a tot file), find a thread by hyelton (lg g3 get back to stock), this will help you

I have tried this method also. Every time at 4% it says, error, remove battery and then reconnect and turn on phone. After that, connection with pc is lost.
Also, when I try to get to Download Mode, it should go then to Firmware update screen to? Am I right about that? If so, then it doesn't go to Firmware update screen.
But I tried it with a kdz I had in my computer and had used before. Downloading .tot file atm.
