No, I cannot access either to the fastboot mode, or in recovery!! To access to download mode, I ordered an USB Jig on ebay, but it will arrive next week! Do you know if it works?
Thanks
There is a gnu/linux tool called unbrickableMod by adam outler, it can be found from android development section. Try that.

Hi Cesco, sorry for your problem. I thought that if the rom would have been not suitable for the phone it would have advice you. Can I ask you the link of the jig you bought? I think is good to always have one...

I installed the rom through CWM Recovery and it doesn't say anythink! The ROM is Gingerbread Stock 2.3.1 for Samsung Nexus S i9020! What do you think about?

Thank you Cesco! I think that if it doen't turn on, there's not other choice to use the Jig to turn it in download mode!
Anyway, are you the cesco of androidiani.com? If you solve you problem, you have to implement unbricking in your tool!

Ok, but I'm not sure that I can solve with the JIG!
Yes, I'm on Androidiani.com, but my tool can't solve an hard brick because are needed the JIG Usb and (if it works) ODIN Downloader, to reflash the bootloader.
If I can resurrect my phone I could write a tutorial to help the users with a problem like the mine..
Anyway I haven't yet figured out if, with the jig is 100% sure that I solve this problem. Have you never used it?
Thanks!

No, Cesco. I'm a lucky man and never needed this Jig. But you know, for only 3euros I want to be ready for the worst. I usually flash a lot. Let me know if it work!
Ok, last question, I found a post on androidiani.com says that in this case, the jig is not working, so, do you think that Samsung assistance accepts it?

I really don't know the warranty policy, but consider the warranty as the last thing. Try that jig, then you'll see what to do. The pc cannot see the phone plugged to usb neither with the PdaNet?
Try to open a thread on androidiani, maybe there's someone that have had your same experience!

I had the same problem, not turning on my phone. I fixed it with that tool. That helps to turn on device to the bootloader mode. And we can flash boot loader and recovery from their.

Its best if you state your issue in your device's section for further/better assistance.
I dont know if this has been fixed yet, but did you setup nvflash prior to your bricking?
If so then you should be able to use your backup files to recover easily?

Trouble with Mb865. Need your help !

Hello, everyone. I've got a trouble with my at&t atrix 2. I've cm10 onboard and when I tried to flash another rom on it I found that nothing changes. Reading similar problem threads I realized that the problem is in NAND, which is in R/O mode. And every change in internal storage restores after the phone reboot. Does anyone have a solution for this ? Plz help.

What method you are using?
Use BMM only.....here is the link......http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2602229

The problem is probably in NAND-flash. It is in read-only mode because of an error, I guess. So I can noy boot into BMM recovery. Maybee it will be easier to replace mainboard from anoter A2 ?

Reflash your factory OS. Only option you got. I would be careful flashing things to a device like that one

By doing the research you need to do. You will have to track down the info for your device. It is different for each device. After a minor search for the device. I would contact them OEM Techno about it. And to be honest if you get it fixed avoid flashing anything to it ever again.

[Solved]Need help with a locked device

Hello! My device wifi just stopped turning on, and I did reset networking config but that didn't solve the problem, so I reset It. Now I have a device with no networking at all, and now it's also locked because I didn't sign out of my xiaomi account. I wanted to unlock the device and try another rom to see if that solves the problem, but I can't do that since I need first activate the device.
About the device:
-No root
-No developer options enabled
-Wifi doesn't toggle on
-Sim card is not recognized (already tried other ones, in both slots)
-Xiaomi assistance doesn't want to help me at all (neither the seller btw)
I hope you guys could help me. I'm very frustrated because it's a recent new phone :c

Are you able to unlock phone. If yes then you can test the things through QC test by typing this in dialer *#*#64663#*#*

I cant unlock it :c
But before messing with this lock, I tried to test wifi but without success...
As mentioned in a thread, an update could solve the problem, but I need to unlock the bootloader

By EDL, I mean a kind of brute force to flash ROM. Used mainly when hard bricked. As you don't have unlock permission you have to use this method to flash Factory ROM. You can find Instructions in YouTube videos for "Redmi Note 6 pro EDL flashing guide Test point method"

I've just bought a smartphone repair toolkit from Amazon, and I'm waiting for it because I don't have the needed tools to open the device and do the EDL by myself. It might get here around next week, and when done, I say if that worked.

I tried the EDL test points, but the device doesn't vibrate and turn on :c
EDIT: I was doing it wrong, I need firstly to connect the pins, and juts then connect the USB cable. I was doing the opposite hahaha
Windows Device Manager does recognize it, but Mi Flash still doesn't recognize the device on refresh, giving the error "length cannot be less than zero". I'm doing some search.

I read somewhere that the cause could be USB 3.0. So I tried on my laptop, and the flashing worked! Now networking is up again!!!

Actually, after flashing a new rom, after 12h the wifi issue returned, and I used this tool: https://www.xiaomitool.com/V2/
I used the option to flash an official rom, followed the app steps, and after the download finished, it couldn't be installed because of a bug So I repeated the steps, but instead of downloading again, i used the already downloaded rom (it is in the app installation folder). Then, success! Has been 2 days with no problem
About the auth itself, even by using EDL, after the reboot, I was prompted again by the mi account... So if you don't have the account, I'm afraid I can't help you... :c
I used this tutorial for the EDL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WfOprRVQww
