after trying A LOT! of the things on the forum i'm left with a ?bricked? device ?
can anyone tell me if there is a sure/fool proof way to root or make my device work ?
the problem it had, was that it started to reboot and would not get out of it , took it to Orange in Spain where i bought it from and they kept it there for 1 month . After i got it back it had the same problems and took it to Samsung. after another month they told me the device is out of warranty because it was rooted it think.

If you can get to download mode and see the flash counter you can install a stock. ROM. You should do a full wipe and factory reset first.

Hello, I'm new to xda and android modding, in other words: a lame-ass noob. I was quite interested in flashing cyanogenmod on my xperia tipo(under my circumstances I can't really use a pc) I rooted it via a nifty little app called baidu-root tool, as a noob I'm not sure that gives it proper root access, on the cwm ROM manager I tried to flash a recovery on my phone but I failed and gave up. Since I can't use a PC I had to think of a way to unlock my boot loader so I I downloaded the app that soft bricked my tipo: ez unlock. It was too good to be true, so I rebooted and eversince it's been bricked, so I have to unbrick it pronto. I read somewhere that I can get flash tool and relock the boot loader and via PC companion I can hit "repair my phone" and viola it's back to normal... any advice ? Also I can't find the proper s1 fast boot drivers, please help...
Yes you can always restock.. just go to your phone model's development thread and download stock rom for yourself and flash it using pc

I'd appreciate any help to get my phone working again. I've only had it for a couple of weeks and I'm hoping I haven't completely ruined it...
I'll try to recall the exact steps I took to get to this point:
First, towelroot wouldn't work to get root due to me accepting the OTA update to 4.4.4 android. So I found on a forum post that you can use Odin to flash the stock kernel and then towelroot will work. So I downloaded the stock kernel and flashed it successfully using Odin. Towelroot was then able to work with success. After that I installed SuperSU and busybox. Then I was using this guide (URL omitted due to forum rules) to install SafeStrap recovery as I'd read CWM recovery didn't work for the G900A model (AT&T). Safestrap seemed to install OK and when I rebooted I was able to get into the SafeStrap software interface. From there, I attempted to flash the CM12 nightly build to the "stock rom" slot (I'd read there was some trouble using the non-stock-rom slots in SafeStrap). That operation completed with success, but when I tried to reboot, it froze at the CM12 splash screen. I tried this with a few more custom ROMS and they all do the same thing (freeze up on boot logo / splash screen).
I've tried using Odin to flash back the stock firmware. As long as I didn't try to flash the bootloader (BL) Odin shows "PASS". However, when it reboots it again hangs on the Samsung splash screen.
So at this point, I've flashed all stock firmware to the phone (except BL) and it freezes and then goes black screen on the Samsung splash screen. Also, it no longer shows the SafeStrap "recovery / continue" bootup screen since I flashed the stock firmware.
Any ideas on how I can get back to a useable device?...

"odindownload.com" will install a LOT of MALWARE (270MB) but NOT ODIN!!!!!!!!!!
Download ODIN (1MB) HERE
Original stock firmware (safe and tested) can be downloaded HERE
Connect your phone in "DOWNLOAD" mode (Power off and then press "Vol down + home + power" at the same time)
Open "ODIN" and select the downloaded firmware as "AP"
Press start (Progress will take about 10 minutes)
Phone will be fine again

Googled the error. Solution is to flash the firmware with PIT file. Only problem is that someone has to give you a working pit file.

Same problem with other Samsung phone and description for the solution --> CLICK ME
I'm still stuck... I'm just looking to get back to a usable device. I really don't care if it's a stock or custom rom at this point. Any help is appreciated.
I tried flashing with the full firmware package I downloaded (4.4.2 G900A stock firmware) which included a *.pit file inside one of the tarballs. I used the PIT/re-partition option and everything succeeded except it still freezes at the Samsung boot logo.
Anyone? I'm getting desperate here...

Hi,
We all felt problem of LAGGNESS and PERFORMANCE from our beast after flashing the custom ROMs. No way problems could not be solved although flashing official stock ROM through odin.
HERE HOW TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMS.
First of all you have to download Smart Switch( Official PC suite)
and then simple flash ROM through the suite. DONE af
Just download SMART SWITCH from http://www.samsung.com/in/support/smartswitch/ to your pc.
BOOT your phone to DOWNLOAD mode [power+volume down+home key while phone in switched off mode]
Go to smart switch and press EMERGENCY SOFTWARE RECOVERY AND ... & follow the instruction.
Done!!!!!
HOPE UR PROBLEM WILL BE SOLVED LIKE ME
------------------------------------------------------
I have not yet install any CUSTOM ROM. So don"t know about performance in Custom ROM. If u have tried pls report asap.
I recommend INSTALL RR 6.0 (Only big problem is networkstabilty, others are okay).

I did it and installed rr 6.0 and its smooth as ****(at least for now) and so you can add to the thread that roms work and the method works too
Can I use the tar.md5 file in this tool also?? Like Odin?
Doesn't work. If you have flashed ANY THING on your out-of-the-box firmware, it will give you lag whether you flash/format and reinstall STOCK rom. If you can feel the smoothness again, don't get too excited, the lag will come again within 15 days.
Once you flash there is no going back.
It just install the very first firmware of the phone. This won't make difference tho

Since I can't post my feedback to hashtag new PAC ROM I wrote it here instead. So I just flash it in a clean way. From clearing system and all and back to stock install root kernel then twrp then flash the PAC ROM clean way. And after testing
And it takes I thing more than 30mins to flash the ROM. And after testing the ROM is extremely laggy and I found resurrection remix way smoother than the new PAC ROM

Wipe and flash, lol. Cp is ?
Bro it's crap
This only reflash the firmware. As soon as there are apps, the phone will get laggy. So don't be excited.
Placebo. There's no reason a why a wipe makes device lagfree except for the first few hours..

Please note phone will be faster as you new phone you have bought. (Later lag, that's blame SAMSUNG)
Hay.i have an idea. . . .i tryed it and it works for me, . .go try your self.but you will lost your data.so backup 1st.
1st step=>you nead stock rom,
2nd step=>go to stock recovery and do wipe and factry reset several time(3-5),
3rd and last step=>go to setings and do a factry reset from there,
After 3rd step you will feel the light of the rom like 1st day you buy it.!

This is a symptom you flashed the wrong version of the kernel for your phone/Android version or did not flash your caches.
Make super sure that you get the right kernel for your model and if you are still on Marshmallow use the latest (might be v5) kernel for that Android version.
Wipe your caches after flashing the kernel. An offer after every flash in TWRP. I skip this only in case of minor updates.
