Hello,
I installed a wrong ROM (yes I know i'm a noob).
My Jiayu G3 with MT6589 won't respond to anything, it only pops up for 3 seconds in my device manager.
I've searched for 2 days so this is kinda my last resort is my phone bricked or is there something I can do?
Kind regards,
A sad noob
You need to find a compatible rom..then you need spflashtool..(I assume you have the drivers installed) load the scatter file and press download or firmware update..then connect the phone..(there is a chance that the phone is out of battery)before connecting the phone to the pc pull out the battery for a few seconds and then connect it..once the installation is finished pull out the battery for a few seconds again..then try to turn it in or charge it..

No Worries, Soft Bricked
The device is just soft bricked, you try to obtain the compatible ROM for your device, you have to google it:silly:
then a proper flash tool which can be installed on pc and compatible for your device (i mean the pc drivers fro you device to get detected while you are in download mode).
Try flashing it, since the device is soft bricked, try to flash with the Stock ROM for your device.:good:

I decided I wanted to change the firmware .. I did not do this for the first time so I downloaded the beta Accura SAMBA v2, with ciekowości with UPK.zip. I plugged the phone to upload ZIPA the card and started | drinking heavy digging in UPK.zip CWM.exe shoved and there, not knowing that he will immediately do something. It turned out that he started flashign - now like a brick phone detects omap4430 but after installing the drivers in Device Manager / Ports LG CDMA, there is no serial ports and LGflash Tool does not detect my phone. The system is win xp. Could only service?
(google translate)
did you try putting it in download mode take the battery out hold volume down and power i think then plug the usb in keep holding buttons tell the phone vibrates or device manager finds it.
Which OS are u using(Windows 7 or XP). I bricked the phone multiple times trying to install the wrong CWM onto the phone as the latest version of rom manager did not have the O3D as an option. I tried to recover in Windows 7 and couldn't. Had to be done in Windows XP.
If it is still bricked, let me know and i will forward a link to the recovery page to get the phone back up and running.

Prior to obtaining answers the phone sent the unit if the warranty does not include a guarante (phone rooted) back to the topic.

Hello,
I managed to brick my new Feiteng H7100 phone, i flashed wrong rom to it and got a greenish screen when trying to start the phone.
So i formatted the phone in SPFT tool "Format whole flash" and from then it stopped responding, i cant start the phone anymore, and the charging indicator wont light up when charging.
When connecting the phone to try and reflash it the computer recognizes that i have connected the phone to the computer, but flashing doesnt work.
It is the S7180 with 1GB ram.
I hope there is a solution to it and it can be fixed, iam not sure if this can be called had brick or soft brick.
Was very close to throw it out of the window yesterday, but then thought i can give it a chance
Thanks

Same mine is completely dead after I flash it - Its not recognized by the originally drivers in windows 7. Showing up as an Unknown Device.
if it is showing up as an device, it isn`t bricked. you need to get the right firmware and flash it again. force install the drivers for the unknown device or take the drivers for Rom you flashed. (e.g. flashed wrong preloader from ZTE to a Star device, need to install ZTE drivers)
While I don't know the specifics of the Feiteng H7100, I've "bricked" many an android phone and tablet. Fortunately it's usually easy to fix.
1) Reboot the device into CWM Recovery Mode (usually by holding power and volume buttons at the same time)
2) Plug it into your computer & run "adb devices" - if you device comes up as a Recovery device, then you're probably home free
3) Run an "adb push newly_downloaded_cyanogenmod_rom.zip /sdcard/" - the data location (/sdcard/ in this example) might vary depending on your device
4) Wipe Cache
5) Install Zip from sdcard and choose your new_rom.zip

What tool are you using to flash the stock firmware .and it will be helpful if you say how exactly you bricked it
I'm using SP Flash Tool for flashing.. I tried to flash stock ROM into my Lenovo A536, when it was done I unplugged phone from computer and tried to power on but there was a problem.. Phone was hard bricked

So your saying the flashtool bricked your phone ?
Where did you get the firmware for your phone cuz flash tool can only brick your device if you used firmware not for your phone. Also does your phone shows any sign of life ie vibrate turn on for a sec, bootloop etc...
I don't remember where did I find it.. There is only one sign of phone life. When I connect it with computer, phone connect but only for a while, after a three seconds disconnect.

I know two guys who had this problems.
1) guy took it to service ,they fixed it.
2) installed phone drivers again and tried again and it worked.
If you're confident you have the right firmware load scatter click download and connect your powered off phone without pressing any buttons ,and see if it works.
Anyway I'm narrowing down the cause of the problem to either an incorrect firmware or a sp flash tool version (some version are ****)
Didn't work

Pull out the battery then leave it for 10 min reinsert and see if it boots (give it some time ) .if it doesn't
Or connect your phone to PC(without battery) ,load scatter click download on sp flash tool ,then put in the battery .
First method - didn't work
Second method - device automatically disconnect after three seconds, so SP flash tool says error

What error code?
I bricked my device same as you so I could help you further but my device connected in meta mode and flashed its firmware fine ,so try another USB cord
Ps I've pretty much mentioned all I know about unbricking in this thread so I can't be of further help.https://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&s...ggeMAA&usg=AFQjCNGkwgZbNQCJFWtm90DM-Mksnzk0dA look this up specifically #9
It didn't work.. Error is: BROM ERROR : S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032)
Wow! I did something and then uninstalled driver. When I connected phone, driver automatically installed and now it's not disconnecting, but still can't flash it

Brom error is mostly related to see improper firmware which also explains why you're phone got bricked in the first place .
Try downloading another stock firmware
Man? I love you!!! I tried about four ROMs and the fourth is working!! .. There was a one more problem with flashing again with drivers, idk why but they dissapear, so I installed them again and then tried flash ROM.. Thank you very much! You saved my money!

@jamsubzero I saw your post and thread regarding Dead Bricked
Hey guys.
I own a lenovo A328. For the past couple of months my phone, gets poping up "com.google.etc.etc has stopped".
I tried doing a factory reset, but no luck. Then I learn that I can flash it using SPflash tool with the stock firmware.
And luckily, I did it, my phone back to normal. But then, a few couple of weeks, it started to pop up the same error messages again until I can't do anything on my phone, and unitl it boot loops. So, I reflash again with the same firmware (stock).. and it works again. And same thing keeps repeating and repeating;
until I thought I can try to change the options in sp flash tool..
Instead of "Download only", I choose, "Firmware upgrade".... the flashing finished successfully.
BUT when I press the power button to turn it on, nothing happens, and when I charge it, I cant see the charging screen (or it's not actually charging). I'm sure that it is charging before the flashing, and the power button is working.
When I connect it to the computer, i hear a "connected" sound, then "disconnected", and repeating.
i also tried to reflash it, both the "DL only" and "Firmware upgrade", even the "Format all + ...."
and it flashed successfully (meaning, computer still recognized it), but still not turning on.
Please help me. please.

i am trying to flash vivo s7 and the cable shake and since then the phone is dead, have flashed it several time, it complete but it refuse to on
I need help please
Basically I was flashing updates for my CUBOT Nova and everything was going fine and I tried out this custom recovery which wouldn't mount any partition so it didn't really suit me. And I did this a dozen of times with other recoveries and if anything happened I had the firmware in SP tools ready to be flashed and if I could save going to it I just used the fastboot to flash it, and so I decided to completly stop and just put my phone back to normal and because I done it before I formatted the whole flash, (and FYI every 2 times I plugged in the phone powered off my computer always searched for drivers in the windows update but it failed and so everything still worked) but after I formatted it and plugged it out and in to download the firmware, my computer successfully installed the drivers and at this moment I was like shoot so I tried to download and it didnt recognise my phone and so I uninstalled the driver my computer installed and see if it worked and it kept installing it again, so I decided to uninstall every mtk driver I had and rebooted, when I installed every single driver again it tried to download drivers from the windows update but it failed and on the sp flash tools it goes to 100% on the Downloading DA (so the red bar) and stays like that for a while and I get notifications that I have a unrecognisable usb device and after a while it gives me randomly 2 errors 0xC0050005 and 0XC0060001 and I know someone is going to tell me I dont have the right firmware or that it's not the right ones but it isn't I got from the official Cubot website and I got an early versions from firmwarefiles I think and none of them work, now I just have a phone without anything on it and I cant flash anything on it until I just hope someone would walk me through what to do I would appreciate so much I'm sorry I wrote so much as I had to explain in max detail as I could what happened!

i wanted to say the same thing, also i tried enter EDL for 2 days DD (helio G80) LMFAO
Hi there
I would like to know if you can help me in repairing my device.
So i wanted to do an upgrade on the tablet and i messed it up.
I was on CMW recovery at first and then i did a format on cache system and data. but when i wanted to flash the rom CM14.1 it fail and the devices restarted.
the screen goes on but i can see faint lines on the screen.
I did make a back up of the rom and tried to flash it back but it didnt work.
I used all the roms and it still didnt work. I tried many SP flash tool and formating and still not working. every single rom has been flash and all are green but the phone does not want to boot. i have youtube and followed the instructions and every single step i can think of but u have a gut feeling i am mssing something.
I cannot write SN on the fone as it will not work. i have uninstalled all the drivers re-install all the drivers did all the instruction that you have provided but still it will work.
the tablet does still detect on the PC and it does work. so basically it is in a bootloop but its not powering up. Some suggested using MRT TOOLS or MIRACLES but i have a problem with that as it always have a virus attached it to and when i download it the pc removes it. so i dont know where i can get a good crack tool.
i really need your help if you can.
Hello Guys
i closed SP tool while flashing
my phone : infinix hot 10s
i cant power on it and cant join fastboot and cant join bootloader
When i connect phone by orginial usb
computer said (USB not recoginzed)
i installed all drivers but now phone is dead and he was rooted so i cant going to warranty
how i fix it?
Hi Guys,
I got a Moto Z from US recently(I live in Asia).One day I was charging my phone.I got uncomfortably hot.So I decided to power off my device and when i restarted it,it got stuck on bootloop.I did try factory resetting my phone and then went to Motorola Service Center.Even though it was under warranty they refused to service it because it is from another country(Even though I agreed to pay $300 they were charging for a MoBo replacement.
After any hope of getting the device up and running,I tried to update the device in fastboot mode.I made the mistake of using an older firmware thereby Hardbricking my device
I did manage to get it to back to life by using this file
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...-to-unbrick-moto-z-hardbricked-t3590133/page2
(post#18)
Step 1: If your PC detect the phone as QUSB_BULK device, install the drivers provided. If it detects it as qualcomm device 9008 or something, then move directly to step 2.
(If your PC is not detecting your phone then try removing the battery and then plugging it back on. Connect to the PC and press the power+volume down button for 2 minutes. Keep trying this this with different USB ports until the PC detects it.)
Step 2: Now extract the blank flash file and run the 'blank-flash.bat' file. Your phone should boot into fastboot now.
Step 3: Now you can flash your stock ROM or any custom ROM. I suggest you flash TWRP and boot into recovery and flash a custom ROM first. And then flash the Stock ROM later if you want to because flashing stock rom is very tricky in Moto devices and you can end up screwing your device even more during the hardbrick phase.(thanks to:manish54 ,benzinerwin)
Then I started to update the stock ROM.But it wont take any gpt.bin(GUID Partition Table) files.
(error)Preflash Validation failed
Without GPT I cant update anything at all.If anyone can help that would be great.
