Hi, I have a sgh-i747m on rogers in Canada. I was running Cyanogenmod 11 4.4.2 and was pretty happy. Like a dummy I tried adding FlashingDroid 2.2 located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-flashingdroid-v2-2-gs5-bug-fix-t2767784
After the zip was installed and the phone rebooted it appears it was bricked. Phone will not power/boot, doesn't show up in Odin, cannot see the phone within Windows. I've read that I can use a debrick image file which would correspond to my phone and write that img to a microSD and get the phone booted without requiring JTAG service. I know I am a complete schmuck for doing this and I apologize in advance for wasting anybody's time. If somebody could point me in the right direction for a possible working debrick image for my particular phone setup, I would greatly appreciate it. I've pretty much accepted the fact that this phone is history. Thanks in advance for any help !

Okay, I rooted my TF101 B90 model and all was good. I installed rom manager and flashed its custom recovery and had that whole issue that the sd card wasn't read and such. After much frustration I finally tried Wheelie (Nvflash) and it keeps failing and now I have nothing on my tablet. I can get into APX mode and flashing the stock rom using many custom utilites always fails (Usually says something like command failure :go failure or could not load bootloader to device) I'm sure it's probably fixable, I just need someone to type it out for me (I'm pretty smart when it comes to Android but I'm honestly stumped right now) Or please redirect me to a post that could help, However I have read a lot of the posts about this and everyone is getting there's to work and I can't get mine. Thank you!!!

I am in desperate need of some help. I falshed a rom to my phone using odin that was not for my device, since I am new at this and actually don't know much about it. So I looked for guidance on this forum and messaged many ppl but I have not gotten a response. I have tried links on the forum for the roms but they are all removed from the links. I flashed a rom for a shg-t959d and it boots up but it will not read my sd card says blank card but its not balnk my computer reads it, also my storage says 0.00gb. I just really want my phone back to a working state any help would be greatly appreciated.
Find links?
Any luck with your phone? I am looking to root mine as well, but like you I can't find any working files, or anybody to help. I have also posted and emailed people with no response. Very frustrating for beginners. I would be great full if you could pass any info on to me, and I will do the same for you. Were you able to root your phone without problem, and if so how? I was going to use odin, then I got nervous, so I was going to try superoneclick. Any help you can give would be great.
Help! Infected Tab2 - Need stock firmware .zip for SPH-P500
This is my first post. I hope that brings me some luck!
I bought two SPH-P500's from Tiger direct when they were on sale, one for me and one for my wife. Unfortunately, hers got infected by something that I have not been able to eliminate via resets or reloads with the standard tools. I have tried Odin and Heimdahl without success. Foolish me rooted the device but did NOT replace the bootloader I can't load anything but a "signed" zip file expected by the stock system. Unfortunately, the infected device is now no longer rooted as my wife reloaded things and blew away the original
I've also tried a number of obscure things like looking at the cache device/partition to see if there was a .zip left there from the last update, but all that was there was a small text file.
What I need is *ANY* legitimate >> signed zip << firmware file for this model device so I can try an adb sideload. I know there aren't many folks using this device, but was hoping maybe someone might take pity on my plight.
Any other suggestions also appreciated!
Just for the record, the malware continuously plays a short tune and refuses to be killed off. It uses up so much of the CPU that one cannot do much of anything...

I'm also looking for any usable rom apart from stock. I have an sph-p500 which is technically the same as sgh-i497 but found no roms at all (apart from the stock rom). any help appreciated. all rom links are broken. I know the device is pretty old but I don't want to shred it.
Hello I am new to the forums and even though I've rooted a phone once (Anyone remember the HTC Incredible?) I've fallen out of the loop so to speak. Here is the situation.
I have a friend who is contently attempting to root phones. And he gave me the Grand X Max Z787, after he soft bricked it. He now has a Plus. After weeks of looking and some frustration on my part.
Here's what I now know he did, he was using a program called KingRoot and after it said success it booted to the recovery screen where it stays.
Here is what I've tried, factory reboot wiping data.
I've tried sideloading a Rom.rar I found in another thread. Side load doesn't work at all, and it's just this phone.
So I've tried loading different packages through the sd card. It says they're corrupt (Which it seems is correct when checking the information to the site it doesn't match)
So do I just need a stock copy of the OS or is there something else I can do? He said he didn't make a backup which isn't surprising to me at all. However I'm currently using a windows phone and need an android phone and would like to take advantage of this if possible. Also as most probably know when trying to load from the SD Card only .zip files show up. It was on the stock for a ZTE Grand X Max with cricket. So if someone has that backup and it's what I need (at least that's what I think, thank you in advance.) If this post is in the wrong place please move it to the right place or tell me where to place it. Thank you.
Hello:
I am fairly new to the android world and rooting, for a few months i've been tweaking with my phone and what not, got into a few situations that i was able to recover from, but this time i was messing with TWRP's boot menu and accidentally deleted the OS system, but for some reason I cant pull the image i flashed and saved on my sd card, i was able to do so before but not this time, long story short I would like to know if i can buy the same phone again which is a zte warp sync with kit kat 4.4.2 and root it, create an image or zip file of it and save it on a sd card and then load it into the soft bricked phone through TWRP's boot and fix the soft bricked phone, in my mind it seems like it would work but i really dont know if its possible, or if anyone has attempted it before. before i go and buy another identical phone
