[Q] Really "bricked" Nexus S after bad update and bad Unbrick - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I need help (sorry for my english)
Yesterday, i've done an upgrade of my nexus s with the ota message.
Unfortunatly, the upgrade didn't work and my phone was not responding.
With Adam tool, i was able to put my device in download mode only with the Galaxy S device (not the Nexus S).
I put some KERNEL, PARAM, BOOT ... on the device with the Heimdall-frontend program.
Now my phone is no longer recognized by windows.
When i start the device, first seach and home ligth is on, then the four ligth is on (home, search, menu and back). After that, the flash ligth turn on with the four button ligth on. And nothing happend.
When i plug the usb, all the ligth turn off except the search and home ligth, but the UnBrickable.jar does not detect the phone.
What can I do ?
Please Help

htc touch pro 2 blank screeN

here is my problem guys. i was trying to flash my htc touch 2 sprint it with Raphaelhardspl(wrong flashing) and in the process the screen went blank. i was trying to do it one more time and my PC is asking for qualcomm cdmd technologies msn driver, every time i connect the phone to my PC. i have tried it soft reset. and hard reset wont work. any suggestion will be thanks full. thank you. the main problem is that my pc wont recognize ??
WHOEVER solve my problem will pay 50 buck via paypal
The quickest way to brick your phone is to try to flash it with programs meant for other phones, which it appears you have done.( bricked )
Try putting it into bootloader and flashing stock rom , or try mtty.exe, but if your pc won't recognize it and your screen shows no life, it is probably toast. Does it at least have hardspl on it . ?
yes it does have hardspl. there have to be a way that my pc will recognized it. i think.
As denco7 said, have you tried getting into the bootloader mode?
Hold volume down and press the red button with your stylus.
Connect your pro2 to your PC and if it connects the word 'serial' will change into 'USB'.
If it does, your device is not bricked.
I suggest you flash Hard-SPL again, and make sure to follow the instructions exactly! Don't think you can do it just in a minute, just take your time.
Then flash another ROM by using MTTY (see here) and there you'll get some instructions.
Good luck!
it wont go to boot loader mode, when i connect it to the pc it begin to charge and noting happen , then suddenly the light go off and the pc detect a driver is missing quaccom etc. does any one know about that this driver.
I've had that before... that the MSM technology qualcomm **** is asking for a driver.
There's a driver replacement (used before mtty). You can try to install that; altough I don't think it will help.
If you can't get into bootloader your device is (probably) bricked.
What you can also try is getting your battery, sd-card and simcard out of your phone and leave it for an hour. Then put the battery only back, and try to boot.
Does your phone start when you press the start button? So do you feel a vibrate or somethin like that?
no it wont start but maybe by following that MTTY my pc read it, i will try it. . it doesn even bibrate it just that power light show when that phone its charging thats all.
thanks for you comment guys.
That's strange.
There's one last thing you could try: the ultimate hard-reset
Some time ago I bricked my diamond. I tried all available sofkey combinations.
Then, suddenly, my device vibrated like 3 tiimes very loudly.
It didn't still boot nor go into bootloader.
But after about 4 hours it booted!
I only don't know what the combination was... something like VOl UP + VOL DWN + lOCK BUTTON + RESET.
Just try some combinations, maybe it works for you.maybe not, but you could try it.

Permabircked Samsung Captivate ...

Hello all,
Yesterday I installed Firefly 2.7 on my Canadian Samsung Captivate. Everything worked fine except that I could not receive calls (when I did I lost connection and it hung up right away without me having the time to do anything).
What I did tonight is I tried to reinstall the stock firmeware found somehwere in here. I followed the instructions which asked me to instal it using Odin3 v1.7 which I did. What happened though is that right after I clicked start button in Odin, the installation failed so I was left with an incomplete install.
I was stuck in download mode and could not do anything with my device and my phone would not reboot so I removed the battery. Now I can't boot my phone no matter what I do, I can't connect it to the computer either. I tried the button combination to go in download mode (remove the battery, wait, press vol+ and - and power, connect the phone to pc, put the battery back in, take my finger of the power button) and nothing. No matter what I do or try my phone is not doing anything. It is turned off and it stays that way.
Is my phone now a piece of garbage ? Any idea what I could do ?
Thx in advance ...

Have you tried to load the bootloader?
Just press VOLUME +, VOLUME - and PWR at the same time and wait. (Until 'Enter recovery mode' message appears).
If don't appears, i think you bricked your phone, because you tried to do something very wrong. If this method don't work, send your phone to MOTOROLA and wait. There's the only thing to do.
So have you already revived the phone?
If not, do the following:
Press and hold CAMERA and VOL- buttons simultaneously
Connect USB cable
Phone will be detected as Motorola Flash Interface. And you will get the ability to flash it. It was tested by me.

[Q] Please hellllllp me! bricked nexus (i9023)

After updating the wrong version, my phone just stopped working. No reaction at all.
I took it to the lab. And they did a Jtag.
Although the JTAG they were not able to resurrect the device.
It looks like this:
Black screen and not respond.
The softkyes are on but not all four. Menu button and back button lights when its regular starting.
When I press the combination of buttons (downloadmod & fastboot) home and search buttons are lit.
I tried the guide who was here with the Ubuntu method ,Not changed too much.
I must say that the computer recognizes it when I plug the device in downloadmod.
Through Ubuntu, I can go to fastboot.
I tried to flash all system files via fastboot through Ubuntu, there is no change after flashing, still black screen.
Have any of you encountered this problem?
Is it possible to fix my brick phone???
Thank you
And a nice day

Please help! S10e can't enter download mode...

Please help!
Hello! This is a distress call, because I think I brickered my S10e, through my own fault ...
Trying to install the TWRP according to the instructions given in the Hades Rom, I made two unforgivable mistakes, since years of flashing roms ...
1) I took the wrong installation file (I have the G970F/DS, and flash the beyond2lte file, instead of beyond0lte)
2) I omitted to force boot of TWRP just flashed.
Result: I cannot enter download mode as I did before (the phone does not blink), and trying to enter recovery, out of 20 attempts, it only turned on 2 times and does not go beyond the warning screen that the oem is unlocked, and it is not a safe state. I press power to continue as it says, and the screen turns off. Of course it doesn't start normally with the power button either.
I found out recently that been connected to the PC, it is recognized by it, and I even could access to it though the Windows explorer... Ergo, it's not dead, but the screen is in the infamous "black screen of death". Tried the usb jig emulator, by sugestion of denon480, but it didn't work (see screen capture).
Is there a way to force it into download mode, to flash the correct recovery, or eventually an official firmware? The cell phone is immaculate, I can not resign myself to it turns paperweight !!!!!
I put this here, because the problem was in TWRP recovery flashing, I didn't arrived to the Hades ROM installing process, and this way I can reach more people...
I appreciate any help.
Cheers

I don't even think it is possible to brick Samsungs like that. Are you following the right steps to download mode? Ergo,
Step 1 – Turn OFF your Galaxy S10.
Step 2 – Now press and hold the following buttons on your phone together: Volume Down + Bixby Button.
Step 3 – Next, plug in one end of the USB-C cable to a computer and the other end to the phone. As soon as you will connect, your phone will power on.
I have the same problem. I do not know if the OEM unlocking has something to do with that as I can not turn on OEM although it is not missing but it is not active and can not be turned on. I tried all the solution available online but it looks like no one knows what to do even the so called experts know nothing at all and the only things they know is the direct easy way. So disappointed
Same problem here... any solutions?
