Phone completely not working, and when i connect USB its getting connection as APX drive. download mode, recovery mode not working.
i dont know what i have to do for this .........
also i have tried to repair boot using RIFF bt phone not detecting.
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Did u try reinstalling the samsung usb drivers for our mobile ?
If it still doesn't solve your issue try connecting it to a different PC but install samsung usb drivers first on it before connecting.
Try & keep us updated if it resolves the issue.

Thanks for ur reply
phone is dead. its only need APX driver when attach USB.

I found the driver :

but what's next ?
RIFF doesn't detect it also .

@ usernome
Did you solve this problem. i have 2 phone in same position.
i just thinking its able to repair via Nvidia Boot Recovery mode.
but what is the procedure or what we have to do ?
0ps!! nothing found

I had the same problem with my phone the day I bought it.... it refused to start for over an hour for the 1st time no matter what I tried... the laptop detected a new apx when connected via usb.. Finally it started with sim and sd card removed... but after that it's been working rather fine apart from a few hiccups here n there... Still its very strange that this is happening..

Hi buddy someone got the same issue without doing anything to the handset, when given to the CC they told it needs a motherboard replacement. I feel it maybe the same in your case & maybe you have no option but to take it to the Samsung service center.
Hope it helps.

That's me bro

We need someone to make nvflash for the R !
Herpderp Defy.

NVFLASH was detecting the phone. The phone's capacitive buttons would light up when the connection was made. But I didn find SGR's Bootloader file anywhere, else would have tried to flash it. I read somewhere today that not clicking "Re-partition" option while using odin might corrupt the bootloader. But it had been weeks since I had used odin(CWM installation). So in no case the bootloader was damaged by odin. The thing to investigate is how come suddenly the phone goes into this mode, without any change in settings or modification ??

Cant access Recovery Mode

Hi Guys,
I have my friends i9003 with me. Its having a weird problems :
1) It successfully boots after 5-6 tries, but eventually hangs after a min on home screen.
2) Its unable to enter recovery mode.
3) It can enter download mode, but its not detectable by odin/PC. As soon as i connect to PC, it shows usb device not recognized. I have tried 2-3 different pc's, uninstalled/reinstalled kies/samsung drivers etc. On the same pc my SGS1 & SGS2 can connect without any problems. So i guess the problem is with i9003. (So i cant flash anything on it)
4) And the last but not the least.....it cannot be charger (tried pc usb / charger). But the battery seems ok, as i can charge it using other phones and dock charger.
..........any help and advice will be really appreciated.
have u tried the hard reset button at the back between the camera and speaker.
I've a I9003L with the same problem (it's carrier locked), I think it has no recovery at all !
Maybe flashing CWM

Its use to get into download mode right !!! But i can easily get into download mode without doing it. The problem here is pc/odin does not detect it.

Just wanted to make sure you didn't have a problem as obvious as I had. I had similar issue when i tried my micromax cable with this phone.
Well, you'll need some expert's advice now.
Looks liek i found the problem, its same as many i9003's are having. Internal memory card corrupted !!! Have found some risky solutions, but will try them, cuz the phone is already out of guarantee !
i had also faced the same problem but i was unable to do it with that solution u can refer my thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1735718 and i have given my mobile to the service centre for replacing motherboard

Try this...
1. Install mobile drivers on pc and open Odin.exe
2. Connect phone to pc. Remove the battery.
3. Now, hold down VOLUME(-) and HOME key and POWER key together to get download mode.
4. While holding these 3 keys, (and your phone stll connected to pc) insert the battery.
Now Odin should detect your phone. If still it doesn't , then take it to the center.
If odin detects phone, flash the official firmware.
Hope it helps.

Have you tried APX mode?
I would try another PC, or get a new charging cable. It is possible for the USB cable to charge but not work for USB. Happened to me.

[Q] Bricked Qualcomm's secondary bootloader, what to do?

Hello everybody,
I got my hands on this phone and I tampered too much with Qualcomm's FAT partition with the secondary bootloader, hardbricking the phone itself.
Trying to turn the phone on, shows the Samsung logo for some seconds then shuts down and disconnects, Download Mode is unaccessible but with VolUP+Home+Power the phone just stays connected (with the screen being black), but ignores any attempt to flash, Odin staying stuck on "SetupConnection...".
What I've tried already:
- Flashing with Heimdall -- phone isn't even recognized
- Removing the battery "trick" etc, etc, etc
- Changing .tar.md5 package
- Forcing a repartition with the .pit
Any clue might be useful, thanks in advance to anyone replying.

You shouldnt had to play with the bootloader neither the SBL
Im sorry to tell you that if your phone doesnt acces neither recovery and download mode it is hard bricked
that is why odin doesnt recognize the device
however, USB JIG is the best solution (the other one is changing the motherboard)
You can follow this instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/guide-how-to-make-usb-jig-reset-binary-t1604707 to build one
using this SHOULD work but its even possible your bootloader is so messed up that will not open
You told me there about download mode, what about recovery mode? althought it should not work maybe God gives you a second chance

Actually ODIN recognizes the phone, but hangs on "SetupConnection...", sure the simplest solution might be the jig if there's a secondary bootloader in situ.
Obviously the recovery mode is dead, but still, I saw that it bypasses Samsung's logo and just reboots.
Since it's Qualcomm, probably the microSD emergency procedure used on the S3s might be a fair try.
If someone has still a working phone, can please do a dd image of the first 100 MB of the EMMC so I can see if this option is viable?
Might be a nice solution for hard bricked Qualcomm-based Samsung phones to unbrick those.

First, for the SetupConnection try changing the ports but first BE SURE Kies is closed or end the task as Kies closes your connections using third-party programs
then reinstall samsung usb drivers or even adb drivers are good.
if you will find anyway to execute the command adb reboot-bootloader you could probably save the phone
2. I just read about the microSD procedure, it looks like a pretty clever idea
I wonder how do you know how many MB's you need
so i have done here a 70MB IMG, and with 100 didnt worked so I did a 99 MB one
Remember you need Class10 16 GB Card
If somehow this solved your problem, i will do a post in our General Section
Good Luck, i'll stay tuned.
EDIT: I just noticed the files have 169 MB so I can't post them here, tell me your email and i send you, my email is [email protected]

I don't have Kies installed, since I never kept any Samsung phone with the stock TouchWiz ROM, but only the USB Drivers package for ODIN and so on.
I sent you a PM with my e-mail address, but you could upload the img to MEGA or whatever file locker service...
In the case this get sorted, I'll upload the IMG over my server and drop the link, so you don't need to worry about the link expiring or whatever

Tried to burn the SD card, it seems that the 7227A doesn't support boot-from-SD.
Anyways, I ordered off eBay for some change a jig dongle, as soon as I get that I'll try that way, but I think that it won't work since most of the hardware components (except for the NAND) are not made by Samsung.
I'll let you know how it proceeds

Xperia L Bricked, EMMC DL TOOL HELP

I was upgrading my Xperia TO 5.1 and was flashing recovery. TWRP was flashed but I was not able to flash any zip through it.
I tried unlocking bootloader but nothing happened. I tried this 3-4 times and suddenly my Phone gone blank.
Now the condition is neither LED or any kind of vibration is working. Phone is detected as Qualcomm Qloader 9008. I tried figuring out and found that bootloader is corrupt. Many person having Snapdragon Chipset have same problem. I found EMMC DL Tool which can repair this but in version 5.2.0.r I am getting invalid user error.
Then I tried Tool studio EMMC tool from ZTE but I am getting error while downloading the Hex file. Phone is detected but unfortunately I am not able to fix it.
Please go through screenshot.
Someone please help me to fix. Either using this emmc tool or anyother.
P.S. Went to SC they said to replace MB which will cost around 6500-7500. But I don't think to spend such money for repairing when I can but much better phone in that price segment.
I am not able to post image. Help me. I don't have 10 post count yet.

So, you cannot get into flashmode or fastboot? Power off your phone, hold volume up and plug it into your pc without hitting the power button. Do you get any blue led or quick led flash at all? I'm not sure about your device's condition but I can surely try getting you files from my phone.
Try installing flashtool and see if flashtool recognizes your phone at all.

Only red LED glows while I plug it in PC. Flashtool can not recognize. EMMC tool recognize but can't find/download the files.
I am pretty sure once I get the tool running it will bring back my phone alive.

Hmm, can QPST find your phone? I'm trying to get a QPST/QCN backup which could be helpful. However, fastboot, flashmode, recovery or device running, I get ports empty. Can anyone help me out here? I can try draining my battery so I have the little phase of the dull red led where the device won't power on until it's a little charged.
