Phone Bricked - Help Appreciated

Okay long story short, I was flashing Kang's Bullet kernel to my phone without the battery cover on (I know, I'm a dumb ass) and go figure, the battery pops out. I put the battery back in, and the phone doesn't boot as I sorta expected.
When I plug my phone into the computer it shows up as a qhs_usb device but it didn't have drivers. I searched around, found the drivers I needed here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14909282&postcount=19 . So now my computer and Odin recognize my phone, but when I try to flash the stock kernel back on the phone it gets stuck on "Setup Connection". I'm having the exact same issue as this guy - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19091572&postcount=7
Does anyone have any insight as to how to get around this problem? While doing some more searching, I read that a USB jig may work. Will that work with our phones or is that only for the first gen Galaxy phones? Thanks in advance for any help.

Ha. Don't worry. I bricked my phone on my first try too. What I did was connect my phone to odin again, but just rooted it all over again. It worked too. Download the files you need and use odin to root it again. It should work.

yup, just boot into the Download mode, and flash back to stock via ODIN, then you can go from there
a USB jig will definitely make it easier

Thanks for the help so far guys. Okay unfortunately I can't get into download mode. My phone doesn't show anything on the display, make any sounds or anything. I've tried different combinations of pressing the volume up/down key and inserting the USB cable, but Odin still freezes at the "Setup Connection" step. I think its fully bricked because even when I don't press any keys when plugging in my phone my computer still recognizes it as the same device and Odin still freezes. I've attached a pic to show what I mean. The "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader device I have expanded in device manager is what my computer sees the phone as, no matter what I do.

*Take the battery out and place it back
*Hold both Vol up + Vol down, and plug the USB cable in.
That will bring you to download mode
or leave the batt. out for a min. or 2. Also try a different port see if that helps.

Thanks for all the help guys. Unfortunately I can't get it into download mode. I even tried with my friends jig - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rdn5GoRjhn0&noredirect=1 but it doesn't work. I'm just going to consider this a loss and see if I can get another phone used on CraigsList or eBay.

How I unbricked mine....
I was having a hard time as well after bricking my phone. In desperation, this is what I did....
I went to another pc, my work laptop, and installed the drivers and installed odin on it. Simply plugged the phone in and flashed via Odin back to stock firmware. All it took was swapping pc's. I was having the same issue............
My guess is that somehow since the original pc "knew" the phone, it couldn't decipher the phone in a different state, but it did prove to work on another pc.
I hope this helps you!

wait until unbrickable mod comes out..lol

You can also trya different usb on your PC. I could always find Odin. Good luck

Thanks, I did try this one last time, but it didn't work :\ . I've already given up hope because I did some more reading and when the phone gets in this mode, it means the eMMC (or something like that) needs to be re-flashed and that's something they have to do at the factory.

Yea but I bought it the first day it came out, not sure they would take it back if I tried to return it. Also it's 100% my fault, so I would feel bad trying to return it. But thanks for the advice though.

I know that it's been a while since your last post, but you might want to take up this service;

[GUIDE] SoftBricked?? I'll Show You How to UnBrick It!

HELLO EVERYONE!
This is how to UnBrick the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II.
Make Sure you Never UnPlug the USB Cable While Flashing!
YOU WILL NEED:
Odin 1.85
USB Drivers
T-Mobile Stock 2.3.6
T-Mobile Stock 4.0.3
You must be really nervous right now. DON'T WORRY! THE MORE YOU STRESS, THE MOST LIKELY YOU WILL MESS UP!
Let's get down to business!
1. Relax, and focus on what you are doing.
2. Now try to put your phone to Download Mode.
A. Take out and put back in the battery. Then, hold Vol + and Vol - , now plug in USB and you will get to this screen.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then, you must press Vol +, and your in Download Mode!
B. Find a G2x USB and check if it puts in download mode while its off. If it doesn't, you will need to use a USB JIG.
IF NON OF THIS OPTIONS WORK, AND YOUR PHONE DOESN'T BOOT, YOU HAVE HARD BRICKED YOUR DEVICE. TO PROVE THIS HAPPENED, PLUG IN YOUR DEVICE AND SEE WHAT THE DEVICE NAME IS ON YOUR PC. SHOULD SAY SOMETHING ABOUT QUALCOMM BOOTLOADERS.
2. Once your in Download Mode, open up Odin 1.85 (Make sure you installed the drivers!) Once in Odin 1.85, Check PDA and look for the downloaded:
T989UVKL1_HOME_SGH-T989user_CL799405_REV00.tar.md5 for 2.3.6.
Tmobile LE1 ICS FULL ROM for 4.0.3.
3. Press Start!
4. Once it's done, it should look like this.
Now, it should reboot to recovery and delete cache and data. Then, it will boot.
Your now on stock, if this didn't work for you, write in the comments, What device you have (T989D or T989) if it went to Download Mode, and what didn't work!
HOW TO ROOT YOUR PHONE
1) Download This Recovery : ClockworkMod TOUCH 5.5.0.4
2) Download The SU Files : SU Files + Superuser
3) Flash SU Files In Recovery.
4) ENJOY

Thanks for your time, this useful. Maybe they could check the battery, before anything. For a real noob guide, add in download links for drivers, odin, and files, etc.

Thanks for this good job.If I can suggest also putting 2.3.5 stock zip up.It is easy to root with superonclick.Then flash a 2.3.6 ROM of your choosing.thanks again.
Edit:Or I guess you can just flash recovery then flash a 2.3.6 rooted ROM to get your root.
From a glaxay better than yours.

what are my options for hard bricked device ?
it hangs on black screen, no download mode no CWM no nothing.
Only when i connect it to the pc in device manager shows qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader9008 ?

Thanks this really helped me.

This worked great after the damn forced OTA locked my phone on the white loading screen. I was so worried I had lost all my xmas pics I just took of my 1 and 2 year old daughters. I followed these instructions exactly and after a reboot all of my data, pics, video are still there. Nothing was lost
Now I just have to reroot, remove readded bloat, etc and can enjoy my phone again. Thanks sooo much.

BTW, Try to save your photos on your EXTERNAL SDCard, not your internal. It would save you from important things like this!!

[Q] Recovery Help !!

Hi All,
I've been trying to fix and upgrade error I got since two weeks ago. I found in this forum some related issue that I was trying but without luck.
I proceed to explain what I did to know if someone with more knowledge than me could kindly help, I really appreciate it.
[Device Information]
Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 (Wifi)
SM-T210
UK version
[Issue Description]
I was trying to root the device, I was searching for different approach to do it and the I select one to proceed, but it was so late and I was too tired that I forgot to enable debug mode, so I tried to update the tablet with a rooted firmware version. The process didn't work at all, but the tablet now is completely gone.
Actually, the tablet display the following information:
##########################################################################
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-T210
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
HW REV: 0x5
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.

[Steps done]
1. I download a couple of official firmwares but ODIN is always getting error trying to write into the Complete(Write) operation failed after NAND write operation at the beginning.
2. I've tried with ODIN v3.09 v3.07 v3.06 v3.04 v1.85 and v1.83.
3. If I try to connect to Kies, Kies try to connect to the device but enter in a loop trying to connect. I'm using Kies on WinXP, Win7 and MacOS. In all of them I got the same behavior (loop connection). I'm using the last Kies Version. Also I install serveral times the Samsung drivers. So, it's impossible to connect to Kies.
4. I'm searching for a official firmware and how to configure properly the ODIN but all the official firmware are stored on hotfile but now is not available anymore.
Could anyone of you help me to find a way to recover the tablet, it's the second week and I'm still in the same situation.
Thank you so much in advance.
Regards,
Nano.

Can you boot into download mode? Hold Power, Volume Down, and Home button for 10-15 seconds until you see a warning about Download mode; then hit Volume Up to enter Download mode.

Hi gr8nole!!
Thank you so much for your very fast reply.

b. I can only switch off the tablet (10-15 seconds power button), but there is not any other screen I can load. I've tried
1. Hold Power, Volume Down, and Home
2. Hold Power, Volume Up, and Home
3. Hold Power, Volume Down
4. Hold Power, Home
5. Hold Power, Volume Up
Apologize for not said that in my first post.

Does Odin recognize when the tablet is connected via usb?

You could try a jig.

Hi
Hi Guys!!
Odin Tool recognize the device, the tool show that the device is connected to the port COM3.
I didn't know about jig, I'll wait to know if it works with odin and if there is no any progress I'll buy the jig usb.
Thanks so much.

You should still get a jig anyhow, as they are only about £3.

I have the same problem, please update if you have found the solution.

1st remove your external SD card....then do this
Boot to DL mode
Flash a CWM Recovery using Odin
Boot to Recovery
Format Every Single folder....an error will be found eg. Not found NVM just ignore it
Wipe Data..Cache and Delvik
Turn off device and go to DL mode
Flash back stock firmware using Odin. The above idea will wipe out every junk in the partitions for a fresh firmware to be pre-loaded.

Thanks but I cannot get into DL mode any key combination would get back into the Firmware issue screen and even when Odin mode is supposedly on according to the screen, Odin would not get pass the Setup Connection stage.

if you know which block or patition your recovery lives in and you are rooted
you can use dd command. place recovery.img in /sdcard,
in terminal
cd /sdcard
then
dd if=recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p#
# is the mmcblk where your recovery.img needs to be flashed. don't screw it up ! research!

dude its fully bricked, he cant even get into download mode
I suspect its probably a result of the kernel (boot.img) from the s3 rom which is causing it to brick. If he just wrote a system.img from another phone it would just sit at the lg screen
If he can find a way to wipe the kernel partition then it would probably start. Its because custom roms usually only write stuff to kernel, system and data partitions and nothing else

Did you tried fastboot? Press and hold volume up and plug usb cable like when you want download mode. On PC go to device manager and see if there is Android phone on top of devices and look for the driver for adb interface. You must have Adb installed on PC. If computer recognizes the phone you're good, you can do everything with fastboot commands, flash boot image, twrp... you can even boot boot.img from pc than you can use LG flash tool.

Galaxy Tab s 10.5 SM-800 (wifi) No boot

I have been searching and reading quite a bit here on the forums trying to find an answer to this problem. I haven't found a thread that answers my question, though I've seen many threads with different things I can try. I explain the problem and what I've tried to do to fix the problem here.
The problem:
I decided to give IronRom a try on my tablet. I installed the following:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/prerooted-stock-touchwiz-rom-t2973107
Everything worked great for about 2 weeks. However, one day I went to turn on the tablet and I was stuck in a boot loop. I could get to the Samsung Galaxy Tab S screen but no further before the tablet would reboot.
Here is what I've tried to fix the problem:
1. First I tried going into TWRP to do a full wipe. I cannot get the tablet to enter recovery mode. Power/Home/Volume Up does nothing. I can get the tablet to enter download mode through Power/Home/Volume Down.
2. Using Odin I tried reflashing TWRP but no matter what I did, I couldn't get into recovery.
3. Using Odin I went over to SamMobile and got my stock rom. I flashed it and according to Odin, it was a success. But when it auto rebooted, it brought up the Samsung screen once, rebooted and now I'm stuck with the logo screen on all the time. Holding the power button does not turn the tablet off. I can still get into download mode though.

At this point I need suggestions. I'm not seeing any .pit errors but am not sure that would be worth pursuing. If I do, I'll need a little help learning how to do that.

hi, just buy a micro USB JIG on eBay and you will get into the download mode to flash a stock rom with Odin... I did have the same problem and I solve it with the JIG !:good:

I appreciate the reply, but I am already able to get into download mode and can connect my tablet using Odin. I was even able to flash the stock rom as the photo in my post showed. So I'm a little confused. How is a jig going to help me? Isn't that just for accessing download mode?
What I cannot access is recovery.

Do you have android SDK tools installed on your PC? If you do you can connect your tablet to your PC via USB and enter in the command prompt, "adb reboot recovery". If it reboots to recovery you can try doing a factory reset.

I don't, but I'd be very happy for a little info on how that process works. Do you know of a guide for that off hand? I can google it course .

If you're new to it, it may seem a little complicated at first but really isn't. Here is a good start on XDA that explains a lot. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790 There are links there for the software. One tip, if you know how to add a folder to your Window's path, add the folder with the sdk files to it. That way you can run the command anywhere on your PC. If not, open the folder with the files, hold the shift key and right click in the folder and choose "open command window here" I was able to fix an ASUS tablet that I almost threw away because of a similar issue. Good luck.

Just a question. If I cannot get the device to boot past the samsung screen, and I can only get into download mode on the device, how am I supposed to get the SDK tools to connect to my device?
Odin will connect, but my computer doesn't recognize the tablet as a storage device or anything. Maybe I'm just not understanding how SDK works. All I'm getting are errors saying no device was found.

I haven't been using ADB for awhile and I forgot the particulars. I just tried ADB rebooting to recovery from download mode and it doesn't work. Did you enable USB debugging in Developers options? If not in setting go to about device, tap on build number about 7 times and it will let you access Developers options, there you can enable USB debugging. You may also need to install drivers for your tablet if you already haven't. I forgot did you say your tablet reboots to download mode or you use your buttons? If you can get to any screen besides download you can try ADB reboot to recovery from there. There is a lot of things you can do like install recoveries if you can only get ADB and fastboot to recognize your tablet. There are other people who are way more knowledgeable with ADB than I am. Maybe you can search around for advice. Sorry if I got your hopes up and it doesn't work but I guess it never hurts to try.
