Hi there! First of all I don't speak english very well.
My Galaxy Nexus hard bricked yesterday.
tl;dr no boot animation, no recovery mode, no download mode, no response from computer.
I thought it had just a low battery level, I found it turned off. So I tried to recharge it but it gave no signals, no battery icon, nothing.
After an all night long recharge I tried to turn it on, to enter in download mode or in recovery mode but nothing works. I also tried to connect it with my computer with and without battery, no response, no "OMAP" device found, no sound from Windows for plugging it in, nothing.
I found this thread here in xda, many people has been redirected to it and found their solution to the brick problem.
I tried to follow all the steps but when I plug in the phone and start the .bat file nothing happens, just stuck on "Waiting for device".
The phone is unlocked and rooted. I'm running AOKP JB-MR1 Build 2 and Franco Kernel for a month, never had problems with them, never installed other ROMs after that.
What should I do now? Should I try to do something or just bring it to a support center? The phone is still in warranty, there would be any problem because it has a non-stock ROM?
I've red about a jig to force the Odin mode, should I buy it? (I found this one)
Thanks for the help.
Have you tried booting into Odin mode

Yes, it doesn't work.
have you your warranty on it?
return it and get a new one
It's hard bricked and a JTAG unit may force it into download mode, if you send it in for warranty, chances are it won't be accepted as it was obviously tampered with and they would find out that your bootloader is unlocked and charge you more money than the device is actually worth to fix it.
I don't understand how it could of bricked if nothing has changed on the phone for a month or longer. Nothing was flashed recently so how can you hard brick the phone?

Yeah, that's why I'm not sure to send it in for warranty. So have I to try with a JTAG first?

I'm not understanding that too, I don't know what happened. Suddendly it stopped working. Maybe is just a battery problem, I'll try to use another one before bringing it to the shop where I bought it.
same happened to me, but I have an untouched phone with stock android. it worked well for over an year until today.
I see a lot of people having same issue, but they say that when connected to PC over USB the phone is recognized as OMAP.
for me the PC doesn't do anything...
any help? thanks

so right after I wrote that I plugged my phone into USB of my PC without battery. when I inserted the battery it started showing me the battery sign and I could started the phone. 3 minutes later it went black again, but the trick didnt work again.
any ideas? thanks
Try This !!
Arrange a 4 ohm resistor and try to attach it in ur usb plug port of phone ..it 'll force the phon eto go in download mode or say Fastboot mode.
then follow a tutorial to flash any rom..
its quite easy else ping me !!

Please could you explain a bit more how to go about this? I have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus in a somewhat similar condition. This one is recognised as an OMAP 4430 device. I downloaded OMAP Flasher, installed drivers and tried to bring it back to life but after running the batch file I get this error: Operation FAILED (Remote: : Driver init error 0x00FF8080 - MMC CONFIG FAILURE). Can the resistor trick work on this and if yes, how can I go about it? I am not faint-hearted; I think I can handle it if given the right instructions.
After I tried everything i could from the internet, I went to a shop and tested to see if the USB is broken - and indeed it was. I replaced the USB component of the phone and after that it started.
Thanks guys

Yeah, the faulty USB port is a very common issue.
Hi all
I got a notification of the latest software upgrade available for my device. I downloaded it and installed it. The installation process was shown to have reached 100% and then the phone screen went black and then did not turn back up. When I connect the phone to charger, I do not see any battery charging icon
I had my phone connected to the power outlet while I was upgrading? Is my phone bricked? Any way I can resolve this issue? My phone is out of warranty.
I have never ever rooted the phone. Not sure why would this happen with an official software upgrade.
Any help will be immensely appreciated
Are u able to enter recovery mode!

When I plug my phone to the PC it's recognized as unknown device not as previous.
Thanks

After successful flash the phone will reboot automatically and will stay on bootloop, while rebooting press and hols home+vol.up+power button. Then factory reset, wipe dalvik, wipe cache. Then reboot system..
Why not PDA? When i flashed stock rom i choose PDA and choose the file.
Auto reboot and f.reset time are the only checked boxes

Flash stock zip kernel from artmod thread.
the problem is. I can't upload any files to mobile phone. if i connect to pc, it turns on, goes to recovery, so I click on mount storage, and other mount option, nothing happens. My computer detects phone as F180L with a exclamation mark.
If i go to download mode, and then try to flash any KDZ file from all the f180 KDzs. It gives me errors.
LG Support Tool on entering serial number and model name says "check out serial number and model"
ADB never detects my phone. So I can't upload anything.
No option to upload files via SD Card.
ok, so I have no clue what happened :crying: phone was in download mode. I did nothing, but only installed LG Support Tool USB driver, while the mobile connected.
Then I installed Microsoft .net framework 4.0. And my phone is now qhs_usbdload. it's officially bricked now. I have no clue what happened. This is all that happened before I restarted and selected "reboot to bootloader" and its dead. So there's nothing left to do but throw it out
WTF OKAY! I have no clue!
But, after seeing that qhs usbdload. (i have seen that before with other phones). I complete lost any hope.
So I for feeling contended, downloaded qpst, and emmc software download, and selected MPRG8064.hex and msimage.bin.
Then like I expected it threw an error "image download failed, cookie if present not received"
so I lost hope disconnected my phone and put it there. After a few minutes thought I should try one last time.
so I connect it my pc and VIOLA it turns ON!?
now I have that same rebooting to recovery problem. I have no explanation for whatever has happened to phone in past 3 hours. I have been with phones for years. This is the weirdest thing to happen ever :angel:
Now someone, please help me?
1. Why is this in Development section?
2. You can't mount internal SD as USB storage. Use adb push or adb sideload instead, that will help you to get the files onto your phone.

Some user got that problem before. I am not sure about how they solve it but I guess that they flash their original KDZ back. If your phone can enter download mode, you should try LG Flash tool 2014 and flash your original kdz to restore incorrect system image.
About adb cannot find your phone, try to remove adb driver from device manager and reinstall LG usb driver.

My phone is acting weird. Sometime it would start. Sometime the red light would blink. Sometimes the red light wouldn't blink at all. Then sometimes, it starts. And then it doesn't.
I have no clue what is going on with it.
But it went to download mode many times again, it would go to fastboot, bootloader, recovery etc. Then sometimes it will not respond to any buttons at all! I know its battery is down, but idk if it's charging or not?
I don't know how to know whether the phone is charging or not. I left it charging for 30 minute, and it didn't even buzz. :crying:

One thing you can do (I've done it in the past a couple of times) is to crack your phone open, disconnect the battery, and charge it with an external charger. That would at least give you a full battery to start with...
Regarding the charging problems, I had that once. I was able to startup the phone by simply using a 2A charger instead of the LG's 1.2A.
When I had this issue it was charging while in recovery. Please look at this post and flash your kdz.

Hi, regarding that. I was able to sideload exitrecovery.zip file. It goes to 100% then nothing happens. Nothing happened on phone screen as well.
And can you send me link to that stock zip kitkat? i have a miui.zip and few other roms that I have not tried. thanks
Edit: also what should I do about adb, am i doing correct?
Becuase in adb devices, my device is displayed with deviceID sideload
And i have only pasted adb folder, with a dll and a zip file, there is nothing else, do I need to install SDK?
I tried lg flash tool 2014 again, and it flashed, I swear yesterday I tried to flash it, and after clicking on it, it never showed me country and language selection menu, so it would sit there and do nothing. now I don't know how but it did it :laugh:
thank you so much you'all

I did factory reset, then flashed the bootstack, then flashed the system. But after that, my phone won't power on. I tried to remove the battery, holding power button for a long time, or power+volumn down.
The phone just does not respond at all. Can anybody help? Thanks!

when I had that problem I figured out that it was the battery that was making the phone act weird. Since LG sent me another battery when they had the promotion I used the other spare and that fixed it for me.
This happens right after I flashed the new system, I doubt it is the batter problem. If I plugged into the computer it still won't power on.
(If I remove the battery and plug into computer, the screen of the phone does show some symbol, probably regarding missing memory).
Let me try to see if I use kdz flash to reinstall the system. Thanks for the help.

This is why You don't flash the boot chain unless you absolutely must. I was running 20B with the old boot chain (other than rpm, that was updated) and it ran just fine. If you get a bad flash on the boot chain your sol.
I'm quite perplexed. I was using my p600 today, and it worked fine like normal. Tonight I took it out to do some reading, and noticed some flickering streaks across the screen. I thought nothing of it, and did a reboot.
It turned off, but never rebooted. The back and menu buttons flashed once, and then went dark.
I've been trying without success to get it to boot for a half hour, nothing. There is no response to plugging it into a charger, and my computer does not recognize it as being plugged in. (Currently have no access to windows, so unsure of ODIN).
I was running Tamasek's unnoficial 18.1 build at the time.
Any ideas. Would greatly appreciate any help, even just to get some notes off if it is indeed dead.
while plugged into charger (to rule out it hasnt died while youve been messing with it) long hold power button... i forget if its 10 seconds or 30 seconds. same sorta thing happened to me on temasek, flicker screen but then it died itself, and i got a response from my tablet by long power button hold. not sure if we had same cause but thats what worked for me

Doesn't seem to work for me.
Update:
Holding the power button gives no response, no matter the length of press. However, apparently randomly it will turn on, as the back and menu buttons will light up. If this happens I am able to successfully connect to a computer and view files. I was able to connect to ODIN, however since I am unable to get into download mode I am unable to do anything.
If it is in the state where the buttons are lighting up and I then try to boot it it turns off and is completely unresponsive.
Any ideas? Is there a way to remotely boot into download mode?
Cheers

When lights come on, attach to computer and run the command adb devices... if you dont know about adb then there is plenty of info on the net about it. If adb devices gives you a response (which it will if yoi are able to view files on yoir device then that means you will get and adb response as long as you set up the adb program correctly) then run adb reboot download and then youll be in download mode and flash with odin

I am unable to get the p600 to show under adb devices. However, adb does work successfully for my nexus 6 so it appears to be generally working.
This is on mac, so I don't believe it could be a driver issue. I spent a good while trying to get adb working on windows with no success for either device (killed and restarted adb server, tried reinstalling drivers, different cables, etc).
Frustrating, because the p600 will connect fine to the computer, and I can view files and interact with it. Odin also recognizes it.
I appreciate the help, and any further ideas.
if odin recognizes it then why dont you just try to flash stock again?

I've tried, every time it gets hung up on SetupConnection. Running Odin 3.07. Perhaps a different version of Odin?

Thanks, can't remember what I used when I last flashed with odin, I want to say it was around 1.8x.

Yeah, when I flashed TWRP a few weeks ago I believe i used odin 1.8x, can't remember. However I know that it wasn't 3.10.7. I'll see how 3.10.7 works.
It appears to still be hanging on SetupConnection.

Hmm i guess its not in download mode then... the only thing i could think of is that for some reason it keeps booting to recovery mode which would make both adb and odin not work. Although idk why youd have a blank screen cuz that doesnt tend to happen for recovery. When the menu buttons light up, do they give you haptic feedback (do they vibrate)? If so, maybe you recently dropped it and the ribbon cable for screen beca,e disloged. Id stilll see if you get any responses from ppl who know more than me before you go pulling your tablet apart tho.
The only other thing i could think of to tell you to do is to keep trying to access download mode by holding the appropriate buttons during boot and then try to flash stock with odin. Sorry, i dont know enough to give any more advice from here

ITS ALIVE!!
Thanks man, you may have just solved it, I feel like an idiot. I hadn't considered that the ribbon cable might be loose, and as I was examining it with a bright light I could see items on the screen. Was successfully able to boot into download mode and flash the stock rom, the screen issue was not solved, but I think it flashed alright.
When I have some time I'm going to take off the back and check out the ribbon cable.

The ribbon cable coming loose is a very common issue on this tablet (even without dropping it) as it's connected rather poorly. Fortunately it's also relatively easy to fix as per the below:
Fixing Note 10.1 2014 ribbon cable
Especially the screen flickering when it "died" sounds familiar.

This was exactly it. 15 minute fix and everything was golden.
