Nah, this is the story.
Formatted sdcard (modded vold.fstab so CM see it as int. Mem). Work smoothly.
Going to bed, turn my phone off.
Stuck at shutdown animation (the "turning off phone" thing)
Removed the battery.
Tried powering on, none.
After a successful flash of FXP202.
But imho it's unstable, many random lockups. forcing me to remove the battery every 5 min or so.
and i dont realize this'll happen.
flashmode/fastboot is unaccessable.
so does Soft/Hard reset.
Combined charge time while dead is around 30h~
Longest charge time streak is 12h.
The anything that works is, when plugged in to PC, Device manager shows unknown device with HW id as (USB\VID_05C6&PID_9008).
Please, please help is needed! I don't want this new phone to be a paperweight. (BTW Warranty is void because dust slips under screen and weirdly, my warranty is out)

Try reinstating flashtool drivers. Then maybe fastboot will work. Otherwise hard brick.
You might still give for servicing but may have to pay service charges

No.
BTW i want to do as many effort as i can before giving up.
My phone is stuck what people say "Qualcomm Diagnostic Mode"

If flashtool inacsessible = hard brick = service = must pay
Try everything you can for flashtool otherwise hard brick.

Stuck in Qualcomm diag mode.

There are unbrick threads that deal with this using jtag with repairman help and other stuff that goes over my head, I think this can be called hardbrick
Sent from my ST27i

None JTAGs Please, i don't experienced with this stuff and soldering and flux.

If you can't plug to flash, you must take it to service. Sorry.

Try installing these drivers on pc

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.

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.

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 ??

Samsung SL I9003

Hi all,
Please help... I tried to flash my SL I9003 and somehow the connection broke in between.
Now the mobile doesnt power on and when connected to the laptop, I just see the processor getting recognized and then disappears. within 2 seconds.
I tried with USB Jig but nothing happens.
Any ideas?
Please help. I dont want to loose this phone dead.
Does Odin recognize the phone? I mean, with Odin on, press volume down + power, connect it to the laptop and see if the phone goes into download mode so Odin could recognize it (COM status shown)
Hope this helps

this should be in the general .
take out the battery. put back in and get into download mode if possible. if not, to the service center you should bring it..

your username 9000
you are sure that you are in the right section ?
If not you COME to burn your motherboard
The only solution, samsung service center with your operator
If longer supported you still have to flash the board with a Jtag repair tools Professional equipment
You shook minimum 60 € without success if really toasted your motherboard
Sincerely ...
Thank you all for ur suggestions.
@kralin, the phone doesnt get recognized using the odin. doesnt startup and no lights and no logo. I have installed the processor drivers in my windows 7 laptop and when connecting the phone, it recognizes the processor for 2 seconds and disconnects.
@imjustafq, this was the first step when I thought I bricked my phone but to no use.
@LoLaTiOn, dont worry about the username. I am in the right section.
I tried to check with Samsung center and they said they dont know what to do. not tied with any operator though..
You described the symptoms which very like hard brick like corrupted bootloader

What causes hard brick?

I'm planning of installing a rom on my android device and made me thinking if i install a rom and something happens like hard brick... What causes hard bricked? Is there any way to fix it by not going to a technitian?
Sent from my SCH-I800 using xda app-developers app
Personally I think if it can be fixed it's not bricked. Bricking a phone is pretty much the end of the road for it I think. Others will correct me if I am wrong so best wait for more opinions.
Yes, you are right.
But: Often a so called "bricked device" isn't realy bricked, but the user isn't able to work it again. It depends only at the users knowledge, if he called it "bricked".
I've moded my first smartphone at beginning of this month, but if have modded many other devices before (many Fritz!Boxes, some PDAs, some Mediaplayer for TV, my TV, and many others), but i've never realy bricked a device, but somtimes got bootloops.

How do i keep my android device from getting brick when trying to install rom?
Sent from my SCH-I800 using xda app-developers app
If you want to be sure never to brick your device then just use it as it is. I think as long as you follow all the instructions and do research on it before doing it you should be ok. That's just my opinion though.
hi
hi..i have this problem aside from my stupidity that i flashed the wrong rom and yet flashed the wrong boot.img to my xperia go..after flashing the boot.img, my phone screen went black and nothing appears. i tried restarting but nothing happens. I tried to reflash with the original kernel if that's what it is called but i cannot go into fastboot. My computer doesn't recognize my phone anymore and the color of led light notification turns violet everytime i try fasbooting..
PLEASE help..
Tnx..
I think, you have succesfull bricked your phone!
It is possible that only your screen isn't responding, but it is in uploadmode. I would try it several times.
It's in Qcom USB download mode I think. Connect it to a windows pc, go to device manager and look for some 9008 device under com pkrts

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.

I guess yes, but I don't remember exactly. Switch off your phone and connect may be it should detect.

LG G6 stuck in firmware update, windows can't detect com port

I need help... Is my phone dead or what..? I tried to update software via lg up and uppercut (which i did like 10 times on this phone already) and this time something gone wrong on 10% the lg up turned off by itself after some timeout and my wonderful cable unplugged because if I don't hold it, then it falls off. I tried to relaunch uppercut which had an error, I rebooted my laptop and uppercut worked again, but my phone couldn't be detected (as it used to be a couple of minutes earlier) as a com port or anything. I rebooted the phone, it came back to firmware update. Still no reaction, trying to install legacy driver in device manager, ports (com & lpt) as communication gives out code 34. Installing newer lg usb drivers also don't work... Any idea what to do..?
Did you fixed already your phone? This is my problem also.

You probably flashed the wrong update for your device and now your device is bricked, potentially hard bricked, if it is hard bricked, you won't be able to fix it. You can try sending it to a shop to repair it but they would probably just replace your motherboard. Or, you can try changing the motherboard yourself.
