Hi All, I have bricked my SCH-I925 (Verizon) And need some help.
What I have done so far:
I unlocked the bootloader with the tool from AdamOutler
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41016954
It workt just fine, but after a wile I tried to do a factory reset. After that it was not booting anymore and always ended up in TWRP.
I then decided to do a system repair to factory rom with the Verizon tool, This went wrong and now it is not booting anymore. I can enter ODIN mode but it will not accept any roms, Also the Verizon repair tool is not able to load the factory rom and get stuck on 83% falling back to 66% with the message the device is unexpectedly disconnected.
What I have now is the unencrypted factory rom grabed it from the Verizon tool when it was trying to write it to the device. And a Unit that will not accept any writing of roms.
Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?
I also have access to a RIFF-Box and second working SCH-I925 but unfortunately no info about the JTAG pinout of the device.
hope to help

A weird thing happened, my Galaxy Ace got Hard-Bricked after flashing a rom (i was too lazy to read instructions, as flashing roms is what i do 5 times a day!), and it couldn't go into backup/recovery/download mode. It just happened once, my PC recognized it and Odin detected it, but odin froze, so i unplugged it and repluged it, and that's when it never went in recovery mode again...
I need urgent help asap, as my warranty is already voided.
Cheers,
John Freeman
Well look here for help if it is a soft-brick:

If it is a hard brick then you need to use a JTAG service:

Good luck.
if it is still under warranty take it to the service center and tell the you are doing an OTA and your connection was distrupted. thats what I told at the service center
It should nearly always be possible to enter the bootloader of the device. So if it comes hard you can use "power button, vol down" to enter it and flash a system image directly with the fastboot tool.
Thanks a Bunch!
Thanks a bunch, guys! I sent it to a friend (she knows more about JTAG services than i do) who helped me out.
I followed instructions this time...
Thanks a lot,

Hello,
thank you for taking the time to read and try to help.
I got an Asus Padfone X from At&t and the refused to unlock it
Asus didnt help either.
not to bore you with details
but here is my noobish mistake tool form, i flashed the asus kernel .zip file to the bootloader using twrp.
now phone wont boot into recovery or bootloader
got the minimal tool which as you know include fastboot and ADB
but it wont detect the device ( it detected it before when i rooted the phone )
I made a backup before i flashed , but the problem i cant flash it to a device that wont go to bootloader or recovery
and wont be detected by ADB.
please guide this lost noob.
Hello Ultimician,
If your device cannot boot into recovery or bootloader it's a hardbrick. Flashing the wrong kernel will cause your device to hardbrick.
You probably still have a warranty, I'd go to your service provider and play dumb: "One day my phone just didn't turn on, I've tried everything even charging it."
If you know of someone that could JTAG your device you could go to them that might work, what the manufacture usually do is they replace the whole motherboard. ( What Samsung did when I bricked my device in any case.. )
Otherwise you could refer to these threads, be careful though they are not necessarily for your device. ( But they might be of help )

Carefully when they send a device back to the maker they can often pull information.like last install and all of that. If you had a back up. I would try to flash the stock firmware. They are ways to do this with jig and other tools. I would try to flash stock every way I could before I take it back. I had s3 and bricked it long time ago.after many hours of reading I fixed it. Please always when flashing make sure it's for your device. Wish you luck2
Hello all, It's been awhile since I've been on.... A big while But things have changed a lot around and looks great, But on with my question. I have a M horse N9000W MTK6572, And recently tried a sys file restore using titanium backup and the process froze with a error stating that me deviceID had changed, Then the phone proceeded to reboot, But upon booting up it just stays on the android logo. Before this problem I was able to go into factory recovery as I only had the phone rooted but no custom recovery or firmware, And now no recovery using any button combo. I have asked a few on ebay if there jig or jtag would help but they all say not on the china clone as of yet. So is my phone a cool digital android desktop picture, Or is there a method someone knows
My pc nor mac recognize the device anymore either. Thanks in advance for any info or help
Hi,
I have searched and do not find information that is helpful.
With no recovery and no recognition from the computer, I'm afraid this is a hard brick.
Sorry, I know it is not what you wanted to hear. - support for almost any clone device is scarce at best.
Hello there everyone, i need some help to put Marshmallow on my Phone. I had tried to install it on a my phone which boot-loader is locked and i got a message saying

Hi there, I'd love to help but you did not specify what version of Android you were running prior to getting a bricked device. However a general method would by flashing the stock ROM of the phone via Odin(I'm assuming its a Samsung device). Search for "unlock bricked Samsung SCH-1535" using the search tool. As for the marshmallow UI, this can only be achieved if you've re rooted your device and unlocked your bootloader in other to be able to flash ROMs with marshmallow UI. Alternately you'll have to edit the build.prop file located in the /system folder in the root directory of the device in question. This procedure also will require a rooted device. You can search around for forums that describe how this can be done on your specific device. Goodluck mate:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Hey guys, I've been attempting to root my Sonim XP7 and everything seemed to be going well until I rebooted a couple days ago, now it is stuck at the sonim boot logo. I've tried wiping and factory resetting it from recovery and it gives a successful data wipe message but continues to get stuck at the boot scree. I have no idea what to do. I imagine I already lost all data on the phone but i'd really like to get this phone working again. Can anyone guide me? Thank you
Hi !
Unfortunately I couldn`t find anything helpfull for you here on XDA , next time you must search deeper before proceeding to modify your device , confirmed tools must be considered
Now , the only thing I can suggest is to either contact the seller or the manufacturer in order to get it back on track .
Good luck !
