[Q] Phone - Caution - PC Loop, Bricked? - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

So I just want confirmation of what I fear. I think I bricked my T959W by following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852546 before doing my homework (for shame).
After getting past the root phase the phone turned on and I was getting ready to load a CWM or something but the phone locked up.
So I pulled the battery and went in to download mode. Then Odin connected but I accidentally pulled the USB.
So now I am at the aforementioned Phone-Triangle-PC loop. I have tried USB Jig without success.
So I have read over 40 post on this and my conclusion is it most likely I need to send it in for a JTAG Repair. As I most likely fudged the bootloader.
I am posting this only because no one has posted these exact symptoms that I could find.
Thanks

Ok it seems to be "saved" I had not realized there are 2 download modes. At any rate when I attempted those heimdall guides, one click and using the frontend. It started displaying the large triangle download screen. I cannot boot into recovery still, I may need help on this front.
Now before I move on could I get pointed at ROM/Guide that will get me operational again? I am a bit gun shy after this.
Thanks again,
Jon

Any of the ones on the first page in the development forum for this device.

So I managed to get CWM-recovery working. Yay
Only problem is I can't mount the sd card. And so I cannot load a ROM from it. I will be looking into this but I felt I should update.

Done and thank you
Great success! Turns out my sd card was corrupt fortunately I have an abundance of them.
Thanks for the help, you may allow this thread to die now.

Actually sir. I had this same problem. But i fixed it myself ^_^ Google is a awesome tool. What i had to do is Re-flash a kernel and rom. I pulled the plug in download mode. Took me about 12 hours of reserch and work to FINALLY fix it. Is your phone the SGH-T959V? If so i still have all the stuff you need i do believe.

I have Found the files that you need to flash through Odin
I can instruct you how to download SDK tools and use command prompts to Put your phone in Download mode.
It would be my pleasure. I definately do believe both of our phones are pretty much exactly the same. Id be more than happy to help another XDA member out. Post back or PM me for instructions.

I've bricked my phone please help me PLEASE!

I'm not a noob by the way so this is quite worrying. I tried downgrading my hboot by following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1990043 and it just wouldn't work. The phone kept waiting and waiting so in the end I've given up and I want to bring my phone back to life. I have no Idea how! Obvsiouly it's annoying because it was a manual brick. You have to brick it to downgrade your hboot. How the hell do I get out of this mess. If anyone can help me get my phone back to life I will be eternally greatful!!! Absolutely no response from the phone, no light no nothing it is purposely bricked.

Not really when more people will se an individual thread in the general section than a post in a thread I've retried the steps. The first step where you have to keep spamming terminal to show devices isn't working I keep disconnecting QDL mode and I only get about 4 dev/sdas coming up instead of the big paragraph that is supposed to come up. I've restarted my computer several times and it's not working/ I am SCREWED!

If you got ls /dev/sd* to work in the past and can remember what it said you can skip that.
Sounds like your bootloader is locked... If its not then try starting the process with jet evita downgrade...

I had to restart ubuntu after running killp so it would show Qualcomm QDL MODE. After that be sure to hold power down until QUALCOMM QDL MODE disappears then type ls /dev/sd* press enter in terminal. Now press up arrow then enter again. Keep doing that until partitions show up. Keep in mind you need to do this while QDL MODE disappears...
If this doesn't work to show partitions then download the jet evita zip. Unzip to home. In terminal
cd to jet location. Next
chmod +x jet
Sudo ./jet -d
This will wake device to determine /dev/sd location. Mine said /dev/sde. This means that my locations were sde12 and sde4

Tried the jet evita tool and it says cannot find emmc partitions so that doesn't work. For the main commands I've tried Sdb12 sdc12 and sdd12 and ALL I get is waiting device. I've also done the next step where you try and manually reset it and instead of sdb4 I've put in sb12 agan and sdc12 etc. I don't know what's going on!
Did you relock the bootloader before attempting to downgrade? It sounds like it is locked... I know this cuz I bricked my last one S in QDL MODE lol. The only way I've heard to fix is with JTAG box. A locked bootloader would be the reason why it can't find the emmc partitions. If your one S is Tmous try sde12 and sde4...mine and my wife's were the same and are both Tmous. When it says waiting for device hold power until you see QDL MODE go away then it should pick it up...

When it says waiting on device did you try holding power for at least ten seconds? That worked for me. Took me awhile but down graded today.

[Q] At my wits end...

Hi everybody!
So I've read every thread on here regarding what to do when troubleshooting a bricked phone and yet none of which has worked. My younger brother created this mess for me by rooting his phone and flashing it. When I try to reverse the damage by rerooting, I can only put it into the download mode and clockworkmod but that's it, it won't get passed the AT&T screen and the SAMSUNG logo (it was a Rogers phone to begin with). Two of the drives on the phone keep giving error messages when I try to clear user data (/sdcard & /datadata). From what I gather, none of the USB debugging was done, he didn't back anything up (his loss) but the phone isn't partitioned properly (I personally don't know what that means). It doesn't appear to be a power button issue.
Is there someway I can salvage this phone, or should it just get scrapped?
Thanks in advance.
Go here to start with. Make sure you have Odin. To run it, right click and run as administrator. Follow instructions for package. If you don't know just google odin flashing.
Here is a Rogers odin package http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1197248
Try that and see. Sounds like you got nothing to lose. Good Luck.

Correct,
Relax and take a deep breath.The phone is just fine and your going to fix it. I thought was in your position a few days ago and my phone was in much worse shape than what you have now. Odin is your friend. You just need to read some more first and ask a few questions.
Most likely you have not lost anything.
thanks
I appreciate the help thus far,
I've tried Odin and I guess I was using an AT&T package. I'll try using the Rogers package provided and let you know how it went.
Also, I don't mind being talked to like I have no clue what I'm doing, because that's exactly what I am. I just wish I knew exactly what he did to give more accurate information.

[Q] ZTE Warp CWM recovery flash

Hi!
This is my first post so please be patient and tolerant if i dont use the right place to put this thread, use wrong terminology, or if simply my question is to stupid....
My problem is the following:
I was searching for a way to flash cwm recovery over my twrp and instead of using the one for my Skyrocket i flashed one for the ZTE Warp... (I later found the right zip file here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773659)
The phone is still working but it takes a very long time to load when i turn it on and it crashes all the time.... Without knowing what the problem was I flashed the correct cwm recovery for Skyrocket thinking it would solve the issue, but it didnt...
I have tried wiping (factory reset), restoring from previous backups and flashing the cwm over but nothing seems to work...
Please help me solve this problem!
Im running on CM10 stable version.
Thank you very much
I would flash a stock rom with Odin and hope that clears everything up. And then start over with the correct custom recovery. You've found the right guides by vincom to do that.

Ok thanks ill try that and tell you how it went
It works
It wooooooooooooooooooooorked!!!! :good:
My phone came back from the dead and I am soooooo happy!!!
Here is what I did:
Flashed Gingerbread Stock Firmaware with Odin. After it was successfully flashed the phone rebooted on its own. The att "rethink possible" logo appeared and after a while it went away but the same animation with the same logo loaded itself again... this happen millions of times (for about an hour) and it never loaded the OS. When I tried to turn it off it wouldnt let me but finally made it somehow... then I manually entered stock recovery mode made a factory reset and cahe partition wipe as well, rebooted the phone and it worked!
I am really happy!!! thank you all for helping me out!
The boot loop is typical if you don't do the factory reset. That's what got you through the boot loop. Glad everything is working.

[Q] Hard Brick? Unauthorized Software

So I took the 4.3 OTA (like an idiot) and Saferooted. All has worked very well. No custom ROMs etc, just few root-authorized apps (TBU etc.)
Last night in the dead of night I decided to factory reset my phone and let my wife use the phone for a bit (she is thinking about switching from her iPhone). So I backed up with TBU then wanted to back up a Nandroid with CWM. I used ROM Manager to update to the latest version of CWM then asked to reboot into recovery.
Here is where the problems begin. When the phone went to boot into recovery the phone says in small red letters 'SECURE FAIL: KERNEL'. Then in a large warning 'System software not authroized by verizon has been found on you phone. Please turn off you phone and go to the nearest Verizon Wireless store for help.'
What are my options to move forward? I saw this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2581166 but that specifically references hard bricked phones. Is that what I have?
I feel like if I could boot into the ROM I would be okay as that is stock, but the phone keeps trying to boot into recovery. Just before the unauthorized warning I see the small blue letter saying 'RECOVERY BOOTING'
I feel like an idiot. In my late night haze I totally forgot that this phone is all locked up. I have been messing about with several phones (installing ROMs and recoveries etc.) that I totally forgot that this phone does not have a custom recovery because of this exact issue.
Any advice? Thanks!
Well, I must not have searched before my first post adequately because, as expected there are several posts about this issue. All basically amount to Odining stock 4.3 onto the phone. Problem is I cannot find stock 4.3 anywhere. Links seem to be broken. Can anyone help?
Thanks

[Q] CANNOT get LG PC Suite to recognize device!

So my phone got stuck in a boot loop after setting a custom font in ifont and rebooting. I have been trying for literally 4 hours to get the LG PC Suite to work so that I can unroot and hopefully get my phone to boot. Well I have tried EVERYTHING. Uninstalled and reinstalled the suite several times, unplugged and replugged in the phone from both the computer and phone end. Tried different USB ports, a different USB cable. Uninstalled and reinstalled device drivers. NOTHING WORKS. It downloads all the drivers fine EXCEPT for the Android MTP Device driver, which I'm assuming is the issue. For the love of god HOW do I get it to work? I was really banking on this method because I do not have a custom recovery or backup of my system (since it's not currently possible) and don't want to lose my data. Or is there another reliable method that works without the loss of data? Your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
I'm not sure I can help at all, but can you boot your phone into the recovery or download mode? Maybe you could adb pull from your phone to get data. I know it's in a bootloop but maybe it only Loops when it attempts to load os

Hey, it's the thought that counts. The fact that you're even trying to help is greatly appreciated, so thank you =] I can get into recovery but the only option it gives me is to do a factory reset, which I don't want to do at all but definitely not before unrooting the device first. Don't want to cause any more problems. I don't really know much about ADB, I read a little about it earlier but to my understanding to use it as a method it has to be preinstalled prior to bootloop or bricking. And I have never installed it. Maybe I read something wrong, so correct me if I'm wrong but that's what I got from it. I have been at this all day. I am going crazy without my phone! =[ lol
Ok, follow this link. Read direction, then once you've done that come back and ask follow up questions. Adb doesn't get installed on the phone at all. I would do an adb pull and pull my data for backup, then wipe phone and start over. But let's see if we can't avoid wipe.

Well thanks for your help! Yeah I think developer mode was activated at the time of the bootloop but I'm not even sure it would matter, anyway?
However I did install ADB and fastboot. Just trying to figure out where to go from there now. Don't know what to type into cmd. It's worth a shot. If I can figure out what to type. Don't really have anything to lose at this point. lol
