Hi everyone!
I really need help!
my samsung i780 is dead after i flashed the boot part with the eboot from DXHC4!
I already tried everything!
i flashed de boot part with E1, flashed the three parts with the c4 and e1 rom and nothing! the flash process always complete without errors!!
I can acess bootloader without problems, i can also entre the hard reset menu pressing the green , red and power button but when i press space to performe the hard reset nothing happens and i tried to wait several minutes!
when I power on the phone it doens't even show the samsung logo! Just black screen!
I would really apreciate some help!
thank you!
A good challenge for the I780 Specialists
I bet that the solution would be very easy
All the best to you
There are quite a number of answers posted. EFN had already explained too many times. He had said that the bootloader works fine, that's a good start.
Just get the necessary rom from EFN thread, phone rom PUHE1 and the pda rom DXHE1. There is even a tutorial on this in EFN thread (1st post).
g00ndu can you please help find the thread/topic where EFN explaines it, i'm having a hard time finding it!
thank you
I think he is talking about this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409258&highlight=EFN+PUHE1+DXHE1
download Flashing Guide Tutorial - at the bottom of the 1st post
did exactly as said in the tutorial....
nothing... it seems that the eboot is always the same.....
i don't know what else to do!
g00ndu i can't find the thread you are talking about....
where does EFN talks about the bootloader or a problem like mine??
could you please help me!
thanks!

Okay step by step:
Did you downloaded the russian rom i780PUHE1 (eboot+phone+pda)?
Did you downloaded the i780DXHE1 (pda only)?
Follow the tutorial, assuming step 1 to 4 had already been done.
(5) Launch Mirage updater. Select MIRAGE LV image as the profile
(6) Select EBOOT+PDA+PHONE and select the extracted RUSSIAN .img file
(7) Click on DETECT
(8) Switch on the phone while holding the ENTER and FUNCTION buttons (ALT BUTTON)
(9) After the system DETECT message appears, connect the phone via USB to your PC
(10) Wait until the image is written.
Before flashing to the DXHE1 rom first, please try to boot up and see if it works. If it is successful, you will see plenty of gibberish characters. This is EXPECTED, as the rom is russian.
If it doesn't boot up, then I am sorry I won't be able to help you.
Try the above first. Point to note is to choose eboot+phone+pda. Always press detect first before going through the enter+function+power on process.
If it works, please let me know.
g00ndu, thank you very much, but i already done that several times step by step....
but, unfortunately it stays the same....when i power it on it turns on the backlight but the screen remains black and nothing happens...
but thank you very much anyway!
hellboss, I'm sorry about your device. Perhaps it might be a hardware issue. I'm not sure.
While the device may have a black screen, you could try to see if the LED lights work, whether there is a sound after the system boot up. These are important clues to see if it is really hardware issue.
Once again, I wish you could find a solution to your problem.
Hi, i would like to know if it is possible to discover which ROM is installed in the equipment... I mean, the samsung doens't start i can only go into emergency mode,,, is it possible through the pc to discover which ROM is installed on it??
thank you!

I'm not really sure, but have you try to dump your rom using pdocread, one of the itsutilsbin tools? Meaning get the Part00, Part01 and Part02 raw files which is your rom dump?
If i were you I will try most official rom to rescue the device first. like i780XHC4 that one has all three (healthy and normal) parts.
dogmood i already tried.... but still nothing...
g00ndu , to dump the ROM don't i need to change some values on some key at the pocket pc registry?? if so i can't because the pda doens't start....
P.S-the first time i flashed it i did it on a pc with windows xp but all the time the process was incomplete and i need to turn off the phone and restart the phone, and at the second time was succesful, now i'm doing it on a virtual machine running windows xp pro sp2,,,,, can my problem be related to that??
thank you!
I use a VM for the flashing myself, so this shouldnt cause problems.
If flashing the official rom (EBOOT & Phone & PDA) doesnt work for u then you have to consider the fact that your i780 busted on the hardware level.
The best thing to do now is to claim for warranty and make sure u sent them beack with official rom in your phone (HC4)
Hi EFN,
well I've considered that, and I think that my next move is going to be warranty
but unfortunately the ROM that came with the PDA was not the DXHC4, i bought my samsung in Portugal.
my problem now is that the PDA became dead when i flashed it with the DXHC4 eboot, and now that i can't flash any other ROM i can't put the original ROM, which i have a dump, on it....
so i think that is not going to be accepted on warranty....
honestly i can't discover what went wrong.... I followed every single step of the tutorial to revive a dead i780....
thanks!
P.S-> EFN, I'm a great admirer of your work (samsung i780 ROMs), unfortunately I'm not going to be able to try them......but... anyway keep up the good work!
I believe for as long as the rom on your i780 is an official one (regardless of version), Samsung will honor the warranty. You have to try to know. And of course dont tell them that you have been messing up with flashing this and that
well i think so, if the rom is an official one they will honor the warranty...
that's the why of my question about a way to know the version of the ROM installed on the PDA, but i haven't discover anything...
i guess will just try my luck and send it to warranty!
thanks!

Wave is hard to brick.
File not found means Fota try to find an android kernel somewhere. (I guess you had badadroid or stuff like that).
Either put a valid android kernel at the good place (depend of the fota you are using), then install android.
Or boot in download mode and flash a FULL bada firmware (one containing Bootfiles and Fota).

Hey guys me again, I have been trying since 2 hours to unbrick my 2 days old Galaxy tab s 10.5, After successfully rooting my new tablet I decided to make a back up of my stock system, I used TWRP recovery to do so, after booting successfully on TWRP, I wanted to make sure I will have a clean image, I manually erased every possible thing on my table by selecting every option on TWRP, once done and on my way to reboot, before quitting TWRP warn me that there wasnt any system, and even with this warning I quit. Result I bricked my tablet hopefully "soft", to get even better I remembered that I didnt had a micro sd card on my tablet and by consequence I must have erase TWRP and every possible restore solution, the table get stuck with the Boot logo and thats it... I can get at least into download mode,. I tried Kies 3 but Im getting an error that my device is not recognized and for Odin I do think is connected but I dont know how to use or what to install or what to do. And I don't get it why my program seems so buggy and I can´t select any of those options.
at least I could root my phone easily.
ps: I did try every possible combination to get into recovery mode and is just impossible there is no way.
if anybody rescue me I seriously cant thank you enough I googled around and did search a lot on the XDA forums, I'm now more scared to tweak around and make things worst , and maybe if not to late permanently dammage it.

Than to find myself stuck on the samsung logo and being totally blocked since than, I discovered with regret that I actually DIDNT had a Micro SD card and I did wipe out everything including the Restore program if Im getting it right.... I dont know if its already to late and I can go cry on a corner for waisting 500$ in 2 days or is there anything I could do ???, I can get at least into download mode,. I tried Kies 3 but Im getting an error that my device is not recognized and for Odin I do think is connected but I dont know how to use my Zip unofficial downloaded rom and install.

Hey maxal, thx for replying, my English is really not the best, if you think its not understandable I will re edit and try again.
You will need to find and download your firmware from Sammobile http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-T800/BTU/
and use odin to reflash your stock firmware.
Read this too. http://theunlockr.com/2014/08/09/how-to-unroot-the-samsung-galaxy-tab-s-10-5-wifi/
TURNING THE DARNED THING OFF:
Here's the problem. If you are at the Samsung splash screen or boot looping Recovery, you cannot turn your tablet off by just pressing the power button and you can't pull the battery. This prevents you from getting back into Recovery or download mode to restore your nandroid backup or use Odin
So here is what you do:
1) Plug your tablet into your computer (this is important!).
2) Hold down the home, volume down and power buttons until you boot into download mode. Once you are prompted, push the volume up button to enter download mode completely.
3) Now, once in download mode, hold down the power and volume down buttons (not the home button this time) until you screen goes blank (your tablet MUST be plugged into your computer for this to work!). Release the buttons and you will see the battery symbol on your screen. Your tablet is now off - thank god.
4) To enter Recovery mode, hold the home, volume up and power buttons down until Recovery loads.
5) Restore your nandroid backup if you have one.

Thank you so much Maxal I will do it so, indeed the text was terribly written I tried to make it better and more understandable, I read that actually Kies was the way to go for flashing back a bricked device, and odin was actually a risky thing, is that right ?

I believe kIes is for stock unrooted devices and Odin is for rooted devices, I may be wrong. I did get my self in a mess and I was stuck on the Samsung logo and with the help of the forum and what I have told you I managed to get my Tab S to turn off, I then boot in to download mode and used Odin to flash stock firmware again
all right almost done downloading the firmware, could you give me the tutorial you followed for bringing your tablet back to life ? or any good tutorial, Helping me to get out

I don't know which firmware you should have as I don't know where you are from, but I don't think it should make much difference, the firmware I gave the link for is the UK one.
Maybe someone else can help with a link for the correct firmware for you.

But please keep in mind for the future that the load to your Tab better the original firmware that corresponds to its original CSC Region code. This can help you avoid some of the problems in the firmware flashing. How it may be defined, you can read in this thread:

Hi maxal,
Download via KIES will not check root If you do not connect the tablet to a PC. It only checks the serial number and model type of your Tab for search new updates firmware with determine the correct CSC Region code. You can even download the correct firmware by KIES to your PC without having to connect the tablet and then save the file firmware (this requires some tricks) and flash it via Odin. To do this, you need only enter the serial number and model type of the device in KIES menu Tools -> Firmware Upgrade and Initialisation. More details have here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58527780&postcount=5
In this case you no need connect the tablet to PC. It also confirms ashyx here:

With Combination Firmware I mean this:

Hello, I am having a similar issue with my Samsung Galaxy watch SM-R805U, I just downloaded the combination file and I will try to load it tomorrow.
But is there a successful method to get this watch functioning again, without having to repair it?

And you flashed it on the AP line?

Yes on the AP line. At last attempt, please try to flash all 4 files of stock firmware with netOdin. Good luck!

I did that too and wound up with the same result.
Hello xda,
as the title says: a friend brought me a sm-r800(don't know the branding; it's from Europe, Germany) to repair because it would shut down after the Samsung logo (logo appears around ~10s). Inside the download mode (wireless) everything is okay for hours.
I've flashed now around (today is my second and last try) 8 different ROMs (https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=978373&st=80#entry92121314 and other). 3part, 1part ROMs without success. Still the same behavior.
I'm done /shrug
Do you have an idea or some advice to me?
Thank you

Please help, bricked Gear S3 SM-R765S
Hello, I have a SM-765S (SM-R765SDAASKC). Unfortunately it is bricked, completely stuck in the ODIN mode. In the recovery non of the options are working (except for the power off). I managed to connect to the pc using a usb cable, but the...

To be honest, I was never been there(normal downloadmode) before (tried directly the wireless mode) but the same result (Odin tells me always a green "pass!" after the flash process).
Happy to read your feedback!

Photo looks good to me...
No Knox dripped...
Bootloader sboot.bin is SM-R800 from ASL2 Combination Firmware...
So next Question is...
ASL2 Combination firmware can boot or do the same?
Best Regards
Edit 1.
I mean exact this file:
COMBINATION-FT40_R800XXU1ASL2.tar.md5
You flashed this allready?
Appreciate your help, thanks for this.

Yes, the last flashed ROM was the COMBINATION-FT40_R800XXU1ASL2 from 4pda and its the same behavior.
Shows Samsung logo for ~10 seconds afterwards display goes black for hours. (my guess: its complelety shutting down/dies.) If I hit the "Power button" the same starts again. -If it helps, I could record a video about this.
I'm really running out of ideas and I'm happy for your feedback.
Any ideas what I could try?
Thank you and best regards

Okay, I guess I've missed an essential step while or after flashing.
Update firmware with NetOdin
Hi all, I noticed that the BSA4 update has been released everywhere except Australia. I've been able to get my hands on the firmware files but do not know how to get the watch to connect with NetOdin. Has anyone been able to do this? I've seen...
forum.xda-developers.com
" 7. After the files are downloaded, the Watch will reboot. Again, hold Home and highlight & select Recovery in the Reboot menu. "
This is something I've never done before.
I tried this now. Watch reboots 3x times after that ⇾ shutdown. -_-
Will it make a difference if I "reset" the watch right after the flashing process (after reboot?)?
/nepixl
A
Use Standard Settings in netOdin.
NOT change something...
B
Normally after flashing 1 file Combination Firmware... you have nothing to do... only wait for finish... booting...
After few Seconds Combination Firmware should start proper...
C
In theory... you could dump Logfiles from Watch... to see why it not proper...
Require USB cable...
D
It is possible to flash CSA or other files additional... but this increase risk to damge more...
E
Maybe with other Combination Firmware more luck...
No idea of Samsung changed something... maybe with newer Version more luck... or older...
Forgotten where ASL2 is in this chain of """Evolution"""...
Best Regards
Thank you very much for your effort on me. Really appreciate!
A:
Had always stock settings in (net)Odin - Check
B:
Okay, means to me: try more combination fw! - Sure, sometimes net Odin fails - repeat flash until Odin show a green file and SW reboots - Check
C:
Yea - will be my next step - To be honest, this is my first smartwatch flash (and first time flash via Wi-Fi ever). Flashed tons of smartphones but not a single Smartwatch yet. Usually I pull a logcat via USB. In theory that could work also on a SW? I mean: I'm connected by Wi-Fi in the same network - so adb could work? But I don't know if SW have the same android features like ADB or ability to pull logcat. -Aw, logcats requires rootaccess afaik ...
D:
Will stick to your suggest -> combination fw
E:
Okay - will search for more combination fw
Awesome community. Thanks, @adfree
Best regards, stay healthy.

Thank you again.

Edit: Nice source! Been there too but the fact that I have to pay scares me (sure - the devs have alot of effort to grab that software). To be honest: Prefer to donate someone (you! ) from xda before I pay this page.
But this page is a good start to have a feeling what firmware could work for me.
Hi
I had same issue multiple times, I've tried to go to boot menu and did factory reset, after multiple reboot trials, it works but this is a workaround and very frustrating that I'm looking for a solution to fix permanently.
Hi,
Thanks for your reply!
okay, I tried the same now for some minutes with the suggested firmware (ASG from @adfree)
Seems I have no luck again :/
I tried as you said: factory reset (which is factory command here?) and reboot some times but nothing..
Do you think this could be more a hardware issue?
thankyou
Okay I guess there is more screwed than expected.
I've seen in a video that a screen with "resetting..." should appear after selecting recovery mode, which has never happened on this watch. 3 Reboots and the watch will showdown/displayoff
Any ideas?!
Hi guys
add me as onw how is suffering this problem, i had this problem long time ago , after so many tries to use the guarantee with no hope, now i had to fine a solution my self
tried deferent roms nothing changed
thank you for efforts beforehand
Hi everyone. Same problem here. the watch was bought in France, but i live in Brazil and it worked well for 2 years. The issue happened just after an update. i could install a combination file, but it's limited and i could not get access to anyother function but configs. if any of you have a tutorial step by step on how to fix it, i would really appreciate it! thanks
Hi all,
I created an account just to add my comment. I FOUND A LOOPHOLE I think...
My SM-R810 did the EXACT same thing!
I was in the middle of a work day and spun my wrist up to see the time. Black, hmmm... I held the power button and saw the Samsung logo, figured I might have accidentally not turned it on that morning. no biggie. Lunch time I check it out again, off. I turn it on and watch this time. 10 seconds and the "Samsung Galaxy Watch" screen turns back off. Hold the power button continuously and get into Recovery successfully, select Recovery to format the watch. It restarts like it's going to do it in the youtube videos I had just referenced, turns off after Samsung logo again. Now I'm pissed...
I know for sure I was at 87% battery when I walked into work this morning! Even the charging screen shuts off before it "loads up" the correct charge position, 87%. I brought my charger in and noticed that after 2 minutes of charging, the charger starts blinking red? So my next thought is maybe the battery is unstable or setting off some type of digital alarm.
THE SOLUTION THAT CLEARED MY PROBLEM:
Everything i did shuts off after 10 seconds EXCEPT for Download (Wireless) mode. So I left it in wireless mode for an hour and it successfully drained to 24%. I placed it on the charger and brought it up to 46% then turned it on. It immediately started formatting the watch as i requested 5 different times lol
FIXED!!!!!
I'm an EET but have spent little time tinkering with this watch. I know the battery is fully removable but does anyone out there know if this all could have been caused by a voltage instability that auto-triggered a safe shutdown - something like that? I'd like to make sense of the situation so that I may prevent it. I.E., overcharging the battery, watching its temperature, etc.
Thanks all!
