Hi i have a captivate bought from Rogers Phone a week ago

I also rooted my phone
but i can't get my kies to recognize my phone it always says Connecting
However the problem is after i rooted my phone, i was plyaing around with my apps and it suggested me to reboot and which i did.
My phone kept vibrating every 5 seconds but it did not turn on
i turned off the phone and now i have

It works like a dream
Soft brick. You messed up something, the buzzes are rapid force closings of apps that load on startup. Why did you flash the AT$T version of Froyo when Rogers already has their own?

I'm a new member so please dont take it out on me for posting in the general discussion board. I was trying to upgrade my Gingerbread firmware into the new ICS firmware. I downloaded Samsung Kies and the phone couldnt connect for 10+ minutes. It finally connected and started upgrading, in the middle of it all, I lost connection and it said to turn off my phone and re connect the usb. I did that and the phone was stuck on "firmware has encountered an issue". After googling for hours I finally found a thread on here stating Odin could flash/boot the phone into the old condition. I proceeded to do that and then the connection stopped in the middle of that. My phone went blank and will not turn on. I bought a USB jig and had it shipped overnight for $30+ from Amazon and it doesnt work. Is there any other option I have other than slamming the phone into the ground or going to tmobile to purchase another pricey phone? I appreciate any feedback I am beginning to hit depression stage now hahaha.
Can't be that depressed with all those hahaha's
use Odin to flash the standard Samsung ROM which you'll need to download, put the phone into download mode
(hold power + home + vol DOWN)
It also sounds like you have a crappy USB connection. Either get another cable or don't move the phone when its doing these important changes.
Then you'll need to root it again (or leave it stock if you wish) you could then download and flash a rooted ROM

the hahaha's are a coverup. The phone will not go into recovery/download mode for anything. Ive tried holding the home+vol up/down+power and nothing happens. Im not able to do ANYTHING. It stays off and thats it. I ordered a new micro usb connection but im afraid that its too late for the phone. If I could get it to turn on I would know where to go from there with rooting but it wont even turn on.

I have a samsung facinate i lent my sis in law to use after her strat blew it's mind. Verizon pushed an update, and she has had a lot of problems since then. The phone has started freezing when it's charging, the lock screen won't unlock. Sometimes the phone acts like the processor is dragging, it won't shut down apps like it should. Now it has gotten into a bootloop, it will boot up to the verizon splash screen and won't go any farther. We can get it into manual mode. It is an unmodified, out of the box phone, this is the second samsung that has lost it's mind with her. i had it 2 years and it never acted like this for me, I am wondering if the latest software push was too much for it? How can I get the phone out of the bootloop?
we ended up factory resetting it, it is working again, she has to reload all her apps. We still don't know why it was messing up in the first place
I have an AT&T Note 3 SM-N900A. I Installed X-Note Rom on it a while ago, but I recently have been having problems charging the phone and was going to take it to an AT&T Device Support Center to fix it. I tried to install the stock firmware N900AUCBMI9 using Mobile Odin, only to see the a boot up screen that says "System Software not authorized by AT&T has been found on your phone . Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest AT&T store for help." I tried to get the phone to connect to Odin on my Windows PC, but the computer will only say USB Device not recognized, and it won't show up in Odin at all. The weird thing is that it says USB device not recognized even while the Note 3 is off. The phone also stays on while in Download Mode when connected to USB with no battery.
I was wondering if there's anything I can do to at least ensure that the people at AT&T can't power up the phone and see this message. I should have just left it on the custom rom, this looks way worse. I'd rather have a hard brick at this point, at least they wouldn't be able to see it was rooted and flashed. I really screwed this up, if I knew I'd be having issues I would have never rooted it. Any help would be extremely appreciated. Thanks for your time.
I recently bought a used galaxy note 4 for my wife, the phone was bought from a tech guy that worked in a Samsung store.
the phone had been loaded with the note 7 firmware, this was a little glitchy and began crashing the phone.
I assured my wife that I was able to flash the stock software back to the phone, I have done this before on other phones and tablets etc.
the software flashed across with no issues and the phone worked fine..... until my wife restarted the phone, it wouldn't boot up until I removed and replaced the battery, assuming that there was a glitch with the firmware I factory reset and wiped the partition again then re flashed the stock firmware, again the phone worked fine and sailed through the initial set up, once it was up and running I tried to reset the phone to test it.........
now the phone wont turn on, it wont charge, it wont boot in recovery or safe mode.... I have had the battery in and out many times and have held the power button with the battery out to discharge power......
the phone is dead! is there any way back from this or do I accept I need to start looking for a new phone for the wife!!!
Tmobile - Galaxy S7 SM-G930T
Firmware wouldn't update OTA and was stuck on 6.0.1. Wanted to update it to FW 8. Got odin and downloaded the appropiate files, Im not stranger to flashing other devices so I was being cautious.
The phone showed no progress as it was stuck in downloading... so I rebooted it. (I have done this before and it never went sour)
The phone shut down as it should and disconnected from the computer as it should.
Now the lame part is, I tried booting into recovery, download mode and just a plain old power on.
The phone will not do anything.
I connected it to the computer, no sign of life. Left it on the charger for 10 minutes, nothing.
Is this thing gone for good? It's my little sisters phone so I am kinda ****ting bricks right now.
USB Jig might save it https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/guide-how-to-make-usb-jig-reset-binary-t1604707
