My Galaxy R was bricked after I updated it to ICS (official). The update was unsuccessfull and phone rebooted. Everything was fine, my phone still had gingerbread. Then it got bricked after 1 week (dont knw why).
I followed this thread for unbricking but before flashing the ROM i flashed CWM recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1706572
But in the middle of the process my device got disconnected from the PC and I ended up with a bricked phone. Now m unable to get into APX mode. When i plug the device into the PC it gets stuck on charging(no animation for charging also).
Is there anything I can do to recover my galaxy r ?
EDIT: M unable to boot into CWM reocovery and Odin gets stuck while setting up connection(flashing).

U hav no other option but to go to service center buddy.. They'll replace your motherboard and flash official ICS also.. Hope your phone is still under warranty.. Give them some reason like u removed data cable without checking "Safely remove" in your PC, it got restarted and bricked..

I was able to boot into Download mode using the USB Jig and flashed the stock GB firmware . Now the phone is working fine, only problem is the IMEI number.
I didnt have the /efs backup before bricking my phone, so is there a way to recover my IMEI number ?

Buddy they found out that i rooted the phone through the generic IMEI number displayed (004999XXXX) even though the counter was reset. They were like OMG, I am a criminal lol, how can I root a phone. It was of no use talking to them, previously they were compelling me to buy a new mobo when I bricked the galaxy r :laugh: .

I am using FileExpert and I can see the nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.md5 files. In the process of unbricking the galaxy r I did flash the stock indian GB and did the factory reset, now its displaying generic IMEI.

Go to this like and send Email to CEO's Office..
Don't tell him that you have rooted and lost IMEI, tell him some story..
Gys I followed the guide to root my phone with CWM recovery but there is no root access. Root checker gets stuck and busybox says problem with root permissions. I can see the superuser app, dont knw what is the problem ? I just need to backup the /efs folder.

i was using ROM manager on my galaxy fit.. by mistake i clicked the option "backup current MOD"... n den the phone screen got blank n it turnd off..
i tried a lot, even removed the battery n reinserted it.. but its not getting switched on..
is my device bricked?? what to do? please help.....!!!!
Take out ur battery and sim insert battery the quivkly omset data cable
Now on ur phone into downlofing mode flash with odim
I think you need to go to samsung service centre.According to terms and conditions of samsung you have lost your warranty by rooting your phone.BUT THERES A WAY.JUST REMOVE SD CARD FROM YOUR PHONE(bcoz root is in your sd card) AND GO TO THE SERVICE CENTRE AND COMPLAIN THEM THAT YOUR PHONE WAS DISCHARGED AND WHEN YOU TRIED TO START IT AGAIN NOTHING HAPPENED. NEVER ACCEPT THAT YOU HAVE ROOTED YOUR PHONE AND THATS IT! Even I had once bricked my phone and this trick worked.now I have my g fit without any issues or losing warranty.
Best of luck!

No brother, the Root File ( SuperUser ) resides in the Phone Memory....
Better still follow the flashing methods, look up the android dev forum. They are really simple once u get a hang of it

hello guy's
i made a custom rom for galaxy pro
deodxed and rooted & init.d support for GB 2.3.6
and we will use galaxy mini cwm 5.0.2.6 (it's work 100%)
and also custom boot.img
How to use cwm?
use odin to flash cwm recovery and boot.img
as one package and don't forget to use BENNETT_v1.0_2.ops
we can't use cwm by volume or home button
Q=UP : T=DOWN : Z=ENTER : POWER=BACK
AND YOU CAN MAKE BACKUP AND RESTORE
to flash the custom rom you have to mount system and cache and data
after flash the rom you have to make wipe data /reset and wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache
Download boot.img

Hello everyone!
I tried to install cwm-recovery (for Galaxy Mini) and author's firmware and that was successful.
I had:
1. Odin v4.38.
2. Stock firmware (Android 2.3.6) rooted by "universal_gb_root_v19.zip".
3. Installed application "Quick Boot (Reboot)" (You can find in Google Play Store).
I did (my way):
1. Power off phone.
2. Long press "Q"+"Power button" (you will see picture with text "Downloading...").
3. Press button "OPS" and select BENNET file.
4. Press button "BOOT" and select "boot.tar.md5" (you will see error, but it's normal).
5. Press button "One Package" and select "recovery.tar.md5".
6. Select checkbox "One Package".
7. Press button "Start" and wait.
8. Phone will be reboot.
9. Launch on the phone application "Quick Boot" and press "Recovery".
10. Phone will be loaded in "CWM Recovery".
11. You can flash author's firmware "GT-B7510.zip" (WARNING: don't work Wi-Fi after flashing!!!)

1st que.
From where you got the idea to install clockwork mode of MICROMAX mobile into out galaxy pro??
There is 1st rule of flashing that roms,firmwares,recoveries made for some different phone should not be flashed into some different phone you are using.
So remember that from now on.
Now,
Your current problem.
You are sayin that is does not even start right?
If you connect it to charger, does it show battery logo on screen?
Like the logo we see when phone is switched off & we put it in charging?

Well, m inclined to think that ur device is bricked...
If odin cant flash the stock firmware, then i think there is very less you can do.
Is your warranty still available?
I mean is your galaxy pro still under 1 year of purchase?
If so, then you can immediatly rush to samsung customer service centre for best solution.
If you want to try something by yourself,
Then there is 1 method.
I read about it long long ago.
So not sure of it.
It was called something like "usg jig" or "jtag"..not sure though..u can google it if you want to search more on it..
Bt my advice would be to go to customer care if it is in 1 yr of purchase..
sent from my samsung galaxy pro GT-B7510 using xda premium
omg.....nothing else is possible?
well im out of warrenty..and the customer care people say they have to replace the whole motherboard whch costs to 3500Rs..
so i gave up...i tried to explain them it was a software issue but they dont understand....
and i thought the jtag was to get into download mode...where can i get that in india??

Well, 2 of my frends had their phone bricked..but both were in warranty..so they got device replacement/mother-board replacement for free..
N i knw its very hard to find jtag in india..
N also, i agree that though flashing is software issue, customer care ppl nly do mother-board replacement nly..
N somehow that works..
BTW, what exact error you get when you try to flash with odin?
N what are you trying to flash with odin now? Stock firmware right?
Which one?

Hi, I have a Kross GY-601 Tablet... One of the cheap chinese tablet you can pickup at factorydirect (Canada)
I seem to have bricked it when attempting to port Clockwork Mod Recovery to it. It does not show anything on screen or do anything, When I connect it to my computer.. It shows up as M6-CHIP in Device Manager as shown in my image.
The internal storage is completly gone as a result of my failed attempt to un-brick it..
It would be a great help if someone helped me fix this..
Thanks in advance..
-Henrique
PS: I'm only 13 sorry if my description of the problem is a bit bad..
Sooo,
You probably don't have proper drivers, use PDANet ones, they work even with obscure tablets.
You tried to port CWM or flash?
It's not bricked since your computer detects it
Last thing, do you have a backup recovery image or another recovery image that works so you can get it back up?
Daniel
I was dumb enough not to do any recovery image backups..
Also.. I ported cwm then flashed it with dd just poped the .img into the recovery block.. but since I didn't compile it properly when I adb reboot recovery.. It got into a boot loop.. so I tried to fix it but broke it even more... So then I tried re-writing the firmware for generic 4.1.2 chinese tablet.. but that messed it up to the point were it only shows as M6-CHIP.. i can only turn on and off.. nothing else.. no boot no screen light up nothing..
I can help you BUT....

Hi guys!
same here! my note was charging and I've found it stucked in samsung logo without any reason. I've tried to install almost every version available of stock rom also from different country but no way. I can install also custom recovery but unfortunately I don't have any custom rom to try to install in my sd card. At the current time I really thinking to move to new note 10.1 2014...I'm afraid is some kinda hardware malfunctions. Any update from you guys with same issue?

Wow now I'm really start to think it is a Samsung and hardware issue I think these tablets weren't made to be usable for more than 2 years smh is anyone else with this issue running lollipop roms? Jc
The same here, My friend just conntect me, that SAMSUNG does not want to cover charges, due to bootloader says SYSTEM STATUS: custom.
And he never did anything with his tablet.
He got angry and Samsung check the hardware and they find that some chip is broken. But still don't want to fix it due to custom issue.
