My Samsung Galaxy Ace is dead -.- HELP! - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

i dont know if this is the right place to post this but im really desperate here.
I downloaded ROM manager. and flashed with clockworkmod recovery. because i want to flash a zip file.
but what happens is, it suddenly turns black, i mean the screen turned black and then it won't turn on anymore. and the worst part is i didnt do a back up. i forgot to!
please help me guys, my dad will gonna .. ugh.. if he will find out what happens ((
im so stupid.. ugh.

I really shouldn't bother posting here because I answered this question a billion times..
It's dead, return it to the store and beg for a new one.
Your phone wasn't listed in ROM manager so you used an other flash which wasn't build for your phone, because of that it failed to boot and now it's unusable, very maybe you are able to restore it with Odin but I have no experience with that.

i have the same case as you , and send to repair center, it claims that my mother board spoil , and it change new one for me

Its happend to me ...
i send hem for repair...
go to private store and they fix yoy that..
hey! try this one

[Q] Bricked my device! Help

I was using my Samsung Galaxy mini ( GT-S 5570) and was using ROM manager (free) on it.
When it asked for my device.. In my desperation I chose Huawei Pulse mini. No problem. After that.. I selected 'Back up current ROM'
When I did that my phone's screen went blank.
I could not boot. I took the battery out and tried. No success.
So I connected it to my PC. The Samsung Kies software detects the phone but cannot identify it so can't upgrade firmware or anything.
I have tried all combinations to boot into recovery mode. No success.
Is there any way I could get my phone back?
Help! I really need this!

No other way? I really don't wanna do that. :\
Plus.. I had rooted my phone. My warranty is void.
I think you are kinda screwed..
Warranty void, I dont think theres a way to fix this on your own
Is there an equivalent of download mode and ODIN/Heimdall flashable stock ROM for your device?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S variant - T-Mo Vibrant, and the download mode + heimdall took me and a few of my friends out of a tight corner quite a few times.
I have the exact same problem. Odin detects my phone..but when i tried doing a pone package install, it gets stuck at "connection setup...".
I experienced the same thing as you experienced, already three days I tried to solve the problem but still can not, sha no intention to go to him tomorrow samsung sad day my heart
Get a phone insurance, then dump it in the bath for half an hour
Jokes aside, if you were able to do a quality brick, perhaps they might not be able to find out what happened?
What do you guys think about that, can he get his phone fixed under warranty
hi...
i have a Galaxy Mini S5570 or Pop.
after i used Rom Manager and backup ROM, i figured i had chose the wrong ROM
and overwrite on my ROM.
Now my phone in bad Hard Brick.
no response, cannot combo and always black.
i been searching high and low for solution and tried many.
also done the soldering part but still cannot.
could someone tell me what should i do?
my only solution is send back to Samsung service?
please let me know. appreciate and thanks.
but i guess the last resort is to send to samsung.
because once you accidently flash a rom not meant for the phone.
the hardware may work abnormal way that cause the hardware shorted
or damage.
then this damage is not revisible.
therefore only solution is to change the damage part....
now waiting for tomorrow to get the phone back from local phone repair,
and send to samsung.... no choice.
or.... if anyone have new method / attempt to try on my own???
I have the same problem.TT
use this link.. may help you...

Well that's the reason why you need to read first and set your expectations that this might happen... If you read and carefully understand the methods of rooting/installing custom roms then you will be safe.

big mistake!! please help!!

i was installed a i9000 rom on my samsung galaxy s2 i9100 (because i didn't read the title)..
i know it's a stupid mistake but- can be a solution to the hard brick that i got??
or i have to go to store to fix it??
please help me because my phone doesn't work at all (not download mode or recovery also..)
If download mode no longers works you will need a JTAG device to restore functionality, which are expensive.
So you will mostlikely have to go to a store.
If the repair guy wants to, he can find out that you flashed a wrong ROM.
Which means he will know your warranty is void and will most likely charge you for the repair.
i understand... oh crap - there is someway i can make them to don't know that i flashed a wrong rom? and i also want to ask you how to flash my store (16gb but its in my phone its not an a memory card).?
I did the same thing when i got my t989. I put a i9000 rom on it and it never turned back on...sorry man i had to get it warrantied out and got a new one. Thank god i did it in 3 hrs of getting the phone so they swapped it out no problem.
I think there's nothing you can do without going to your local repair shop. Good luck and be more careful in the future by reading instructions more than twice
i hard bricked my w8 once..then i act stuopid in front of the retailer and he repaired it for free cause of warranty he changed the mother board..worth a try

right, ill try to act like stupid and i really hope they won't check my phone.
could they see any rom or there is actually no rom inside so they will never find it???
OK guys what your talking about is fraud and is not condoned on XDA. If you brick your device by Modding it that is on you and you should not try to get a warrenty replacement for it.
This is the reason you are advised to understand what you are doing BEFORE. You do it.

[Q] Admire Android os

ok so i have a samsung admire from metro pcs CDMA i put cwm v5 on it and i formatted everything cuz it was bricked so now i have a samsung admire with no os cuz i deleted th /system /data and everything else you can think of so now what????
I think what you're going to have to do is use a piece of software called Odin and push the OS onto the phone via USB. Since you can't plug your phone into the computer and just drag and drop a ROM onto the SD card (since you have no OS) this is probably your best bet. Look to see if you can use Odin with your phone.
yeah i can you use odin i dont know were to find the os and i used odin to get clockwork recovery on my phone
Hey, I found this forum for you regarding the samsung admire, it might help they provide the stock rom and rooted rom for your phone aswell as instructions using odin.

Sph P100 NOT FOUND ON QSTP

i did a search on this form and i couldnt find nothing similar. to make a long story short when i bought this tablet i was able to put it on DIAG using launcher pro and a few other steps of coarse. and i u was able to read this device on QSTP and i used to get this on QSTP FFA6550-ZRF6500 same one as my Epic 4G. mow here is what happened i was flashing a stock tar ROM with Odin and by accident i checked the clear EFS on Odin and after i a succesfull process after my tab rebooed of caorse y lost all my 3g activation from the tab and when i went to QSTP to load all my activation again it was not able to be detected it on QSTP anymore. now if i go to device manager on windows or QSTP configuration its shows on what port the tab its connected on but under phone number it says NO PHONE. iam wondering what did got wiped? radio or what did i lost? or how can i get back this FFA6550-ZRF6500 or what ever its the right one into this tab? i know it used to have FFA6550-ZRF6500 but i dont know if there is another one for this tab or not. if anyone has any info please let me know thanks in advance..

It disturbs me that in every one of your posts you are mixing up the names of critical tools and systems. I would take a step back, read and understand the systems and processes you need to work with, and then try again.
You sound, to me, like you are rushing to be one of the cool kids without doing your due diligence

Well, to be honest your writing style makes it incredibly hard to figure out what you are even talking about, and of course you aren't going to find what you need when you aren't even using the right terms. It's QPST, not QSPT or any thing other than QPST.

oh **** lol. my bad i didnt notice that. yes thats what i ment QSTP to flash or edits phone. sorry about that. its sucks having bad eyes like in my case. thanks robyr.
and you're in the wrong device forum as no tab plus has qualcomm chips, I imagine you have the Original 7" Tab correct?
I would still be willing to help, but I havent used the QSTP tool that much. We are familiar with Odin. you say you have no 3G, so you're ROM boots up? Can you check if you have an IMEI or an /EFS folder present? If not you may have a very difficult time recovering if its possible at all.
What do you use QSTP for? flashing radios?
More clear info and we can try to help, although Id start by searching you're devices thread.

thanks chrisrotolo for you reply. well i have a sprint version of the galaxy tab 7 inches. sph p100. when i first got it i was able to put it on diag mode to be able to flash it to my boost mobile account. and qhen i sued QPSt i was abel to edit the phone or what ever its called on the tablet and i had it working for over a year. but i was doing a clockwork and recovery flash trough ODIN and i dont know how the hell y checked clear EFS and the damn activation disapeared and when i tryed to reflash it again to my account but QSTP wasnt able to detected. it does show up on the device manager and it shows as the modem and the port wich its using. just like it used to before this whole thing started. but now on QPST it not showing up. this whole,thing its stupid. i dont know what the hell it got wiped when the clear EFS was checked. i had done this clear EFC crap on my spint Epic and i dont have that issue am able to go back to QPSt like nothing ever happened. its just this damn tablet its now showing up as a phone like it used to.. iam about to smash it..
welp... here you are.. http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-imei-efs-repair/
googled it in about 2-3 seconds flat. Restoring IMEI with a box is the probably the best way to go.
I just had my Tab Plus JTAG'ed because I flashed a custom boot loader. ( I was aware I was doing so)
I highly recommend this site. If you're in a rush you can choose rush option. This guy is great, send him an email Im sure he can help.
do you have any /efs folder or nv_data.bin or nv_data.bak files anywhere?
Enjoy. Research a bit more and be careful flashing huh?
Peace.

[Q] .tar file in rar (clearly wrong thing) Cant do STOCK ROM. SG 3 (i5800)

Hello! I really need help with getting stock rom back on. I've sit hours and hours looking for some information that would help me, but i couldn't find what i exactly needed.
Yesterday I installed Kyrillos rom v9.7 (with Odin) to my Samsung Galaxy 3 (Really old stone, not S3). At first downloading stopped for unknown reasons, but finally i managed to get this in my phone. It has been working, but there are things that bother me.
At first, when i turned off and back on the phone all the apps i downloaded from Google Play were gone, and ALSO the Google Play itself was gone. I thought this was normal, because i've never put custom rom to my phone before. It's also a bit lagging and some apps freeze and need to force close at times. UI isn't really my cup of tea either, but this isn't a problem much. So, these are the reasons i want to get rid of it. I have to say, that I can't handle it.
I've read how to put stock rom back on in Odin with files that go to PDA, PHONE and etc. but I've already downloaded 2 files (because one of them had 1 file inside, so i thought second one should have all this flashing needed...) The both didn't have these necessary files.
Downloaded from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497261/
and I don't know what to do next. Odin says, it's wrong and i see it's wrong but i'm afraid of hardbricking my phone. I mean, i've already softbricked it, but managed to fix it myself and little help from xda forum.
Now this is it.. I don't know what to do or where to get Stock rom files, that wouldn't hardbrick my sammy, if something would go wrong somehow someway .
So if somebody understood ANYTHING i told here... It would be really nice of you to help me... Please!
