Hi i am new to this forum and i want you guys to help me with my skyrocket i accidently flashed a custom ROM to my skyrocket but it wast for a infuse 4g and now it doesnt turn on and doesnt even go to recovery and download. Is there any way to unbrick it.
thanks in advance
Probably hardbricked. Can you get into download mode?
Edit: scratch that question about download mode....she's hosed. For 50 bucks there is a guy who can fix it. You have to send him your phone though

Oh... prepare for the flaming!
I'm sorry. There's nothing you can do. Is it hard or soft bricked?
and here is the flaming
Thx for the reply i was searching information about it and some people was able to put it in download mode using a jig do you guys that might work?

Jeezus H.Christ nrm!!! I'm pretty sure this is the best one yet, honestly lmao'd!
Bricking a phone really sucks, and the SR appears to be particularly unforgiving.
Jtag may be the only answer right now (other solutions like qpst haven't panned out, yet)...or warranty if possible, of course...just saying...

The jig wont work, I promise you. Flashing a rom for another device is the best possible way to hard brick. Sorry to be so pessimistic but this is the truth.
Jtag service just recently became available for the sr--for a reasonable fee they can restore it. Google it!

That sucks dude, but I really wanna know how in the hell that could even happen? Why are you looking in the infuse 4g forum for Roms if you have a skyrocket? But, if jig doesn't work you have to send it to that fella and he will fix it for 40 or 50 bucks. Good luck and don't flash things that aren't for the skyrocket
My guess its he upgraded from an infuse and restored an old nandroid
i'm dying to know how out actually happed... Good luck to you though

Ouch. Have you tried odin? Or does that fail as well? If it does, you're going to need to get a new skyrocket.

alright so i had one of my friends who has the vibrant on tmobile help me root and install darkys rom on my phone. since i had no idea i just let him do it since he has it on his phone. we rooted it use the onesuperclick. we took off the bloatwear and then put the rom on the sd card loaded it up in recovery and did the recovery then installed it. my phone hard bricked. nothing comes up or no download mood nothing even when pluged. but no worries i just send it to tmobile. but i wanna know if anyone can give me a guide to do this step by step so it dosent happen again when i get my phone back. thanks
The vibrant roms do not work on the 4g....until they are ported to 4g with the proper mods made to the rom they will cause a brick everytime

1. no matter how much it looks like it, the s4g isn't a vibrant. there are as of yet no custom roms available.
2. people like you and your friend are the reason carriers and manufacturers are going towards more restrictive ability to root and signed/encrypted bootloaders
theirs no roms for the 4g?

nice post for someone with 4 posts total.... reported.
Really though, when carriers stop insuring phones, this will be the reason why....
i had the same hard brick problem as above but for me it was weird. all i wanted at the time was to get rid of the bloat where and i did after which i unrooted and the phone worked fine. the weird thing is later i went in to download mode by accident and before i could do anything the phone was bricked. tmobile replaced My phone but if this has happened to anyone else please reply

The unbrick is UCKD3? Don't quote me on that, but I know it's a D just not sure of the number. And sometimes the software update doesn't work the first few times you try so that's most likely all that happened, haha.

I say do not make a new software thread until you got actual proof that it is a new update.
Ask Broncogr to delete it. I'm sure he'd have no problem with this one since it's irrelevant to anyone's interest after the title.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
I'm sorry guys be gentle. I have reverted back to stock probably 15-20 times at least and almost always do a software update check and this is the first time ever it actually said there was one and started downloading. Went through the whole procedure and then it was still froyo. I have no problem whatsoever with a mod taking this thread down.
And once again I apologize. My only intentions were to get the news out as quick ad I could.

Hi
I want to use only cm9 on my skyrocket, so searching for right mod but failed. I some threads I found that there is cm9 work going on i777. My question is can I use that rom on my phone? I know that LTE does not work. I need it badly because I hate Samsung touchwiz. It s..KS.
Please somebody let me know.
Thanks
Achsah
frankly, no. You will softbrick your phone.
Great!! Thanks a loticenight89!! Appreciate your response. Then I will wait one for skyrocket then..

I would assume it would hardbrick. Think there is a recent thread of someone using an i777 rom.

Hi all. This is a Rom built from aokp jellybean sources.
It's untested. My phone's bricked so I can't test it.
This does not work. I will start working on this once I get my phone back from samsung

Have you taken the battery out and put it back in and then tried to get in download mode? And what are you trying to do once you get in download?
