After countless of weeks trying to figure out what's wrong and how to fix it, I might as well ask help from the masters,
I bought this phone in a non-working condition and was only told it just needed charging.
Here's what I know about it so far:
Z560e
PJ40200
so it's an S3
the phone does not boot up
I cannot get into hboot
the phone shows an amber light when connected to a power source, so I'm assuming it's charging.
sometimes gets detected by the computer as qhsusb_dload but I can't seem to reproduce the condition that it does get detected.
I have taken the phone apart, connected it without the battery to see if qhsusb_dload is detected to no avail
I don't know how it got into this situation and haven't tried any of the methods to fix this as it might worsten the situation.
i have tried to get this checked by a local shop to get it jtagged but he failed and I'm not entirely sure if he put any effort it
I wanna know what's wrong with it and if or how I can fix it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated :highfive:
Is the mode displayed qhusb or qhusb_dload on PC?
it's displayed as qhsusb_dload.
what are the differences exactly? Just so I'd know so I could help out others.
Qhusb is totally bricked and can only be repaired with jtag. Normally qhusb happens by flashing wrong hoot, or recovery etc.
Qhusb_dload can be repaired with PC. Most of the time.
Did you used unlimited.io tool?
Ps I live in Germany, so I won't respond anymore today. Too late here .
wew, well that's a relief. :cyclops:
I haven't yet but I'll try unlimited.io's solution, see if that fixes it.
thanx for your time, it's 5am where I'm from right now and I'll keep working on this till i pass out. :victory:
update: tried unlimited.io's QHSUSB_DLOAD fix but to no avail either, any other suggestions?
No no. Don't try it . Oh damn... Now it's definitely bricked...
I asked if you used it not tried to use it.
Don't wanted you to use it.
hm.. so, what do I do now?
Replied on pm
ok.. so just charge it until Monday?
Yes
@tecardo
my one s s3 too is also bricked like agili, i tried to update to jellybean via OTA and the phone suddenly shutsdown. and now it is bricked. pls help me thanks
Still report back on Monday.
alright, monday is here. what's next?
I would need one of your One S. The reason i had you wait: The battery discharges in this state. If it's empty it's hard to repair.
So someone of you needs to check this: Run a RUU. When Phone is connected.
i ran the ruu, i get an error 170?
so uh, where do i send the phone?
also, would you like me remove the battery so it doesn't discharge on the way there? ill also have it disassembled to save you the trouble
same here tecardo, pls also tell me where i will send my phone im kinda desperate. thanks.
I only need 1 device to look if I can fix it

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.
Thanks for ur reply
phone is dead. its only need APX driver when attach USB.
I found the driver :

@ 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 ??

So, I bricked my HTC Sensation a couple of months back while trying to update firmware from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618
But it didn't work properly, and then it didnt have a ROM and it needed a firmware too, and nothing worked. So anyways, i kept trying and all of a sudden my phone wouldn't turn on, charge or anything at all. I realised it was bricked. So recently I saw this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1522351
So I decided to give it a try, but my problem is that when i type the command in the terminal, it said device wasn't connected.
Then i came across this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Pcxt6nKI10
So after much effort, I got my sensation to become QHSUSB_DLOAD mode on my computer in Windows. But I realised after I take out my battery and sdcard and plug it into my linux computer, the same thing happens. And when i plug it back into my windows, it doesnt get recognized as QHSUSB_DLOAD anymore.
And it's really hard to get my sensation to show qhsusb_dload mode too.
Any advice on my problem? Thanks. Really wanna get my sensation alive again.
Hello, I need help on fixing my Samsung Infuse 4G.
I was trying to install a different ROM from my computer onto my phone and when i did. It just got stuck on the samsung logo. Also when i put it in download mode and connect it to my computer it doesn't appear on Odin. Also my computer doesn't regonize my phone it just says unknown device. Can someone help me please? I want my phone to be back to stock so i can reinstall everything else back to normal. Thanks.
I think that u should try searching. This has been answered more times then can be counted.

thanks i fixed my problem already.
So here is the problem. I got a friends phone, which for some reason does'nt turn on or charge. The Phone is a HTC PG58100 T-Mobile.
Im using a Apple Mac OSX. I did try to charge the phone, But nothing happened. No Lights Worked, But after an hour or so, the board where the usb is connected gets hot, not very hot though.
1. I tried, booting it with the various key combinations suggested, But nothing happened. The Screen didn't even turn on.
2. Tried the ./brickdetech.sh command on my mac. But this is what I get.
"MacBook-Pro:unbrick lesteroliver$ sudo ./brickdetect.sh
Password:
Searching for bricked device...
sed: 1: "/sd.27 sd.28/{ s/.*\(sd ...": extra characters at the end of q command
Device can't be detected. Check connections
MacBook-Pro:unbrick lesteroliver$
It would be great if anyone could help me out with this issue. thanks.
Please Note: I think the phone must have bricked when someone tried to flash a new rom on to this career locked phone or may be a PIT error, I'm not sure.
Thanks.

if you don't have access to the bootloader and unbricking project fails then only jtag method remains
see this thread too

Hello,
I have a RIFF Box and an Adapter for sensation XE.
I tried to resurrect and rewrite all. I've tried once to do with s-off and once without. The flashing itself went straight, no log errors in riff.
However, the phone is still bricked upon assembling it. When I connect the phone to the PC via usb, it is still appearing as qhsusb_dload under device manager. (with riff driver it's named Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM16))
I've also tried this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2775115 and everything went straight. The problem is, after I assembled the phone, it is not being charged or responding to entering hboot.
please help.

EDIT: I've tried few things, long story short: it was a hardware failure. I took my friend's old sensation xe which was bricked also and because his phone was in bad shape, I took only the motherboard, JTAGed it, and the magic happened. Everything works.

try with a different battery if you have
or charge the device without battery,sim and sdcard for 4-5 hours
put them back and try to switch on the device
