[Q] Please hellllllp me! bricked nexus (i9023) - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

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.

[Q] Really "bricked" Nexus S after bad update and bad Unbrick

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

[Q] Asus TF300T bricked. Black screen and APX mode only. I'm desperate!

Hello to everyone. I beg your help, please. I bought this amazing second hand tablet last friday. At the first attemp, and because I didn't want to read all the threads, I bricked the tablet. Yes, stupid thought, I know.
Because I wasn't happy with the result, I wiped all and delete bootloader, system, data... Everything. I know something with Microsoft issues and brave me (and silly) I thought It was similar, that I could start from outside of the tablet even if it was blank.
Anyway, the facts are:
The tablet is allways on, in APX mode. When I press down the power boton, it reboot. I know because when it's conected to my laptop, I can see the USB interface conected and the APX mode on it.
The screen is allways in black. ALLWAYS. No matter if I try to start in recovery in bootloader or any other way to start the system. Black, nice black.
Of course, no result in Power + Vol up, Power + Vol -, pressing power during 3 hours and 23 minutes... (I'm joking), but for long.
The only signal by which I know that it's not dead at all its when I conect the charger. I can see the small orange light in the power buton saying: "I'm alive"
Ok, I don't know what to do. I've read during the weekend as much as I could, tried evrything and nothing fixed. If it helps, before playing to be God, I had Android 4.0.1, I unlocked the bootloader with the apk, I installed the TWRP recovery and everything were right until I wanted to update the rom. Some mystakes that I don't remember and this is what I can tell you. Any holy soul which can help me, please? If not, can anyone help me? Thank you and I'll be looking forward your help.

Are you able to access fastboot? If so, flash the STOCK ASUS 4.0.1 Rom again. The mistake I think you made was flashing a ROM not compatible with the bootloader you have. You first have to update the bootloader to 4.1.1 or 4.2.1 to flash any of the current ROMS.
No fastboot, no bootloader update.

Thanks for the reply:
I can't access fastboot. The tablet does nothing, just allways on in APX, so I can't update the bootloader. Neither I can't switch it off. I've read smething about run out the battery and start a process with ODIN?
I haven't tried it before, but maybe there's a way to create a bootable SD that will automatically install one of the stock ROMs so you can start over again?
If you can't get to the bootloader/fastboot/recovery and only have APX and no back upped NVFlash files then I think you are bricked unfortunately
hi is there any solution to solve this problem, or tablet dead
I'm in the same situation! :crying:
no solution???
Same story
Same here -- black screen, PC recognizes it as an APX device, but neither fastboot nor adb seem to work.
I didn't even try to mod mine. I was just using it normally, and it crashed, and now all it does is give me a black screen. When I poke the reset button, my PC notices the device disconnection and then a minute later it re-connects, but still nothing.
Holding down volume up/down during reset does nothing. Holding down power, with or without volume buttons, for an extended period does nothing.
This looks to be like an epidemic problem for these devices. Has nobody gotten a handle on it yet?
pty
I am also in your situation.
I have a tablet with Tegra xperia 3, black screen! APX mode only!
Does not read any adb and fastboot driver!!
There are new?
Hi everyone,
for me now the same situation. Only APX aviable. no fastboot ect...
pls help me solve this issue.
Thanks a lot.
Turn on in APX-Mode. You won't see anything on the screen, the display does not turn on.
If you connect the USB cable to a Windows PC, Windows will recognize it as an APX device.
On this mode you may use nvflash tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1969797.
If nothing works, you should exchange the Mainboard!

[Q] TF300t bricked - Stuck Boot Screen and No Fastboot

Yesterday morning I met with the unfortunate tragedy that was my tablet becoming a brick. I was trying to explore flashing and installing Kit Kat on it as it seemed a good idea to bring new life into the machine. The problem started with the recovery mode for flashing a rom on the tablet always froze. Whether I was in the menu with RCK or doing it within an app, I could not start any recovery menu. Eventually, I after getting a little frusterated with the problems, I accidently clicked wipe on the power hold volume - menu. Now my tablet will not turn off and sits at the ASUS/NVidia logo screen and has "The Device is Unlocked" on the top right. I unlocked and rooted it months ago.
I cannot get into the recovery or get fastboot to recognize the device at all. Pressing power/volume down does nothing anymore. I did try pressing the tiny hole for the reset button plus the volume + and the USB reacted on my Win 7 PC and I installed ADB drivers for it, but I can't do anything with it and my tablet is a blank screen when it happens. I suppose because it is wiped there is no OS on the system? I simply refuse to believe it is beyond repairing due to these factors.
I am very desperate for help and I have been scouring the internet for an entire day to no avail. I have even seen a few people with the same situation on this board, but the question was never successfully answered each time. Lets try working together to create the definitive answer thread! Forgive me if I am not stating the terminology correctly as I am new to this. Thanks in advance everyone.

I am in exactly the same situation. No fastboot, volume up with reset gets me to a blank screen state which windows recognizes as an unknown device. I downloaded the Asus drivers but it's still not recognized. I may need to go back through the forums to find a way to push a working Recovery of TWRP. Currently I am out of ideas.

So far the only known recovery to that situation is using Nvflash and APX mode. However, you must have already made Nvflash Backups before pressing the wipe data. If you did, there is a link in my signature to restore you tablet.

[Q] Eken t02/t02a equivalent stuck in boot, can't access recovery mode

Bmorn V11, Goclever A73, Eken T02, Aldi Minitab, MyAudio Tablet Series 7, ASK 748SP at the very least look the same and are probably the same tablet. So much so that I ordered a Bmorn touchscreen for my ASk tablet and it worked. ...until I factory reset it from settings a few weeks ago, since then it started freezing up ocasionally and now I get stuck at one of the 3 boot logos but I never see it boot all the way. I hope it's not hardware failing.
I found a button behind the microphone pin-hole after trying vol + and power + home and the like for hours. Can someone please tell me how I get into what i presume is called recovery mode ? I tried pushing that hidden button with the power button, but it doesn't work. Is there even a recovery mode for this device ?
Someone claims there is no recovery mode and vol + and power should work ? So what's the deal with the button behind the mic hole ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406429 "The device was strangely rooted when I bought it from the retailer. The instruction manual strangely says to boot into recovery mode by holding Vol + and the power button. I called the support company and they said that a recovery needs to be installed first. Using Root Explorer there is no recovery folder. (/recovery) - is there supposed to be?"
I'm on linux, do I really need windows to flash this ? If I fail, can I try again ? I used to get along computers really well, but android is currently totally confusing me. I found several images that might work, but I really don't mind trying out unofficial images. If I can try them one by one I'll figure it out eventually, but I'm afraid I might brick it or something. I've read about flashing bootable SD cards, but I guess that won't work here ? Nor will the images that are supposed to be flashed to an SD card work ?
I guess I'll have to bet on an image and find a Windows (I'm on Linux) machine and the rest is trial and error ?
Is there a page somewhere I could read to figure out the basics ? I feel really confused by all of this. Thank you !
I also found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23769918&postcount=3 which explains how to flash this, but maybe i don't need to go through that if there is a recovery mode ? And it also seems like those instructions are for t01, and it doesn't involve that hidden button at all. I guess this isn't what i need, right ?
I guess this should work:"Turn off your tablet.
You will find upgrade button located in microphone hole on the right side of your device. Press this button using e.g. paper clip. Next connect your device to your PC while
holding upgrade button" (http://www.goclever.com/data/upload..._d4d0bde076ab401d6cb98bb1b77713165b6ffb11.pdf).
I can't turn off my tablet. All I can do is force it to quit by holding the power button for 5 seconds, is that enough ?
I managed to get adb and although lsusb lists the device, I can't connect to it with adb. After a minute or two lsusb doesn't show the device anymore either. Do I need to have debugging enabled or something ? I was hoping to reset it with
Code:
adb shell
recovery --wipe_data
