Thats a pretty key piece of information you left out. Jodin is an option but I was never able to get it to work on my Mac.

Using that guide on a windows computer was the only thing that worked for me, unfortunately. I haven't checked the Jodin thread recently but it appeared like the developers were no longer working on it.
I haven't tried bootcamp since I dont have a windows software key, but I would assume that would work. Definitely worth a shot.

had to install VMware, got everything working tho' thanks again @brholt6 for the link

Nice. Glad you got it working! If I ever run in to trouble while I'm out on this job site with only my Mac I might have to send you a PM on how you got it done!

i saw the guide earlier and it ddint work for me since i cant boot up the phone and update it with kies mini or anything else. any other solution? m going crazy.
What do you mean you can't boot up? You need to be on download mode, or are you telling me that you can't get into download mode?
If you can't get into download mode then you're out of luck.

OK you said in your OP that you can get into DL mode. Follow the second post of that guide for getting Heimdall One-Click up and running. Then flash heimdall per the directions of the guide. You'll want to flash WITH bootloaders. Just relax and read through it. It will fix your problems.
Before you do anything, uninstall Kies Mini and use usbdeview to uninstall android and samsung drivers. Then proceed with Lumins guide. If you DO NOT UNINSTALL DRIVERS I can assure you there is no way to get out of hard brick unless you have a jig.
Tip: Uninstall drivers that has the name Samsung or Android.

Actually not true. If you use a different USB port then the one the Kies drivers are linked to Heimdall Drivers will install just fine. I've got Odin, Heimdall, and ADB running for two different phones on my laptop. And this guy is soft bricked not hard bricked.

You sure you have a t959v? Try a different one click from the collection? New to me.
In his op it says it is bootlooping on the vibrant screen. Quite possibly he actually has a vibrant .

That's what I'm thinking. Or when he flashed with Odin he flashed vibrant firmware to it? Have you ever seen that error before?
Cant say that I have. It could be I havent ever flashed a rom not for this phone.
AdamOutler says one clicks have a safety that keeps you from flashing the wrong software. That might be what is happening. Maybe the op needs to use heimdall-frontend to flash a tar.gz. /shrug.
nemeancestus are you comfortable using regular heimdall? You can flash the files used in the one click with heimdall-frontend. I will link the tar.gz, download it. In heimdall-frontend the first tab will give you the ability to load a package. Browse to the folder you downloaded it in. It will decompress the tar.gz once that is done in the package files pane it will list the files. Once it does that select load it will take you to the flash tab and load the files for you. Now put your phone in download mode and it should show as connected in heimdall. Dont change any of the options set. Just hit flash. After that it should reboot and you will be on stock plus blastoff kernel. You will need to flash a different rom tho wifi does not work and it doesnt have busy box or su preinstalled. Just reboot to recovery and flash a new rom.
The link might not be active yet give it some time I just put it on drop box.

I think you are right. He probably has the phone but flashed a vibrant rom. He refers to "Eugene's Froyo Rom"

I tried this video, passin to 2.3.6 first, using Odin..

workd well, however, after flashing, is not turning on again...
What may can be?
Oh yeah don't use the 7.7 forum then...
You Odin flashed a ROM and now the device won't even turn on? Or is it just boot loop?

Can you link the ROM you Odin flashed?
Sounds like you bricked your device...
edit: if you plug it into your computer does anything pop up on the computer?

I had to come to work and let it at home...
Well, as berfore flash it I let the USB on the debugging, I will track the oneclick root directly to se if at least will get a conecction with a computer;
I will try to send it to the dealer as well.
I believe as I let it on the 2.3.6, wich is the same one running on Kies, still under warranty to perform a hard brick recovery.
Let's see.
Thanks..I'll keep you guys posted.
Yeah let us know, hopefully we can do something, not sure why a GB Stock Odin flash would brick it.

E: Can't moun /emmc/
Ideas?
OK
now I tried this room:

Following the guide step by step and then the E: looks like to be damaged. I can not even turn it on again.
Just when I put it to charge, it will show the brick scree (the fone and the computer)...
I am almost givin up...
Does your tab have an SD card in it?
If so try a different one, if not odin 100% stock, then do the root, and ROM flash again.

[Q] T959W Opens To CWM Based Recovery Mode Everytime

I'm a noob but I'd been trying my best understanding to ROOT T959W, I'd followed the steps as described in one of the forums here using odin 1.7 and stock+Voodoo-T959VKJ1.tar and the update in sdcard but unfortunately I don't understand, no matter what i do, when the phone turns on it shows the Recovery mode, I'm however able to boot into the downlod mode and my phone is detectable.
The phone was I guess bricked onetime but i'd used oneclick unbrick and it went back fine.
Please help me to at least get it to a running state not necessarily root.
I don't know if this is right, what should i do next ? Flash the rom CM9 ? or have i messed up ? :S
THANKS A TON!
Attached is a preview.
It seems a little odd. Did you clear everything and not flash a rom?

So you have the "W" phone from Wind and you flashed the bootloader? I can clearly see the Tmobile logo, which shouldn't be on a Wind phone. Just hold on, don't flash anything else and give a few, I'm working with bhundven at this very moment to try and dump my bootloader. Your phone still turns on, there is hope but the more you start clicking all over, etc the more damage you can do, so please wait.

Sure, I will be waiting, Yes it shows the Tmobile logo and when I connect it to Odinv1.85 it tells me this phone is T959V but infact its a wind mobile.
I'll be waiting for you guys and will be more than willing to donate.

The T959V in odin is just a label in the ini file in the same directory.
You can change that to say anything you want.
I really recommend taking the time now to remove odin, and it's drivers, and install heimdall.
Look around in the wiki for help on that one.

Me and Brian are working on it. He had to go out for a bit, so waiting for him to get back on IRC and I'm testing it and risking bricking my phone for the good of the 959W users, so please be patient until we have a test package that can restore the bootloaders, param's, everything full for a "W" model. I found a very complicated work around to get out of the loop but I rather wait till we have the 1 click tested and it's easier to use and do.
For now, the standard 1 click should get you back to stock, just don't flash the bootloader at all.

Glad I was able to help but I couldn't have done any of this with the guidance of bhundven and others from Team Acid. Hopefully I'll have the true stock modem our phone came with soon, full stock recovery, etc and be able to put out a full package to help people who are bricked or want to go back to stock.

Bootloop and Hard Reset doesn't help. LG-Flex 2 H955 5.1.1

Hi, I tried to root my phone with this guide androidxda.net/how-to-root-att-lg-g-flex-2-on-android-5-1-1-lollipop-with-one-click-root-method/
Anyway, when the phone rebooted it got stuck at the LG Logo and a Hard Reset doesn't do squat.
It just keeps bootlooping....
Any ideas?
Any help would be appreciated.
I have the same problem but I was able to root and it went into boot loop after I tried to apply the dual screen mod.
