[Q] Bricked phone. Odin and Oneclick does not recognize my device. Help?

I am not sure if i am on the right section. Just kindly move this thread to the right section if im wrong. Thanks.
So, i have flashed Cyanogenmod Rom on my GT 15800 phone using Odin Multidownloader v 2.252.
The flash was successful, then i tweaked on some settings on the recovery and got my phone bricked.
I can still access download mode through voldown+homekey+powerbutton.
Before, i can also access the recovery mode.
I have tried odin to reflash again CWM on my phone, but is stucked on factory.rfs for an hour so i tried to abort it. Closed Odin and unplugged the USB cable.
Now, i cant access the recovery mode. Whenever i open my phone and access recovery mode, i get this.
And Odin doesnt recognize my phone anymore.
Kies aren't running also.

I have faced the same problem with my home PC. But it detected with my office PC. Maybe windows stopped detecting it due to errors in drivers. Try on another pc or format your windows installation.

After trying it with another PC, you were able to unbrick your phone?

Try re-installing your drivers,that may help you out

it looks like you need a 32bit Windows version to use OneClick Unbrick
give it a try on another pc

I have the Problem
hello i have the same problem.
im using Odin 3 but it doesnt reconized it, i got all the drivers, the oneClick Unbrick was avaible to brick back the device, but now i cant flash it anymore, because Odin doesnt reconized it.
ive tried everything please help me.
Im running everything on Windows 7 32bits

Try this.
Take out the battery.now,while the battery is out,plug your phone into pc,and while holding vol down+home+power and phone plugged in,someone that can help you needs to put the battery while you are holding all this.it worked that way for me,i had the odin doesnt recognize problem.i tried two pc's,it didnt work.

First of all remember if you have usb debugging is ON.Secondly try on other pc Desktop,Laptop,Macbook and different versions.Thirstly use odin 3.Finally if it's stuck it's software problem try searching the right Stock roms for your phone.Hope this helps..Be careful with modding your phone you can no longer use android.

Try flashing zerofill tar first through force recovery mode. Refer to my old post from profile for step by step procedure.

Looks like u have a brick. Have u tried this: homekey+menu+ volume up+ powerbutton? There should be forced upload by keys... if that comes u still have chance.

No chance the phone dont turn on and the pc not recognize it. i installed the usb drivers and kies and odin both not recognize it and it is not shown in the hardware monitor in windows it is completely death what should i do try with usb jig or something else or should i bring it to a samsung service center?

Bricked???
Ok in first place i want to know how did u brick your phone.Dont u know that bootloader must be removed before flashing.Did u remove it?
If yes then whats the other reason for bricking the phone

I rooted my phone before i flashed new rom... perhaps it's that bootloader what bricked your phone.
Sent from my GT-I5800 using xda premium

did u get any error logo stating that ur phone is bricked
repairing android logo will appear

i dont think android can get bricked so easily…hav u checked ur battery?
there is one thing called "coal digger"(i dont know how u guys call it)

It is not my phone it is a phone from a friend all i know is that he made a firmware update with odin but at beginning of flash the phone went out and since that happens it not turns on not in download mode not normal and on pc it not gets recognized so i can´t flash or anything else because the phone on usb cable not response and not shown in the system.

There is a software called "One Click Unbrick" (or sth). It worked for me once. Hope it helps you

did you try the keys from posting #2?
additional try worth
with battery pulled out
press and hold the keys
insert the battery while the kesy are hold
-> you may need a second person for that action
cheers

Start from the beginning. Tell us all the flashing steps you did in detail, we can figure out if its a soft or hardbrick.

Okay it is the phone from a friend he would update the firmware downloaded all stuff connected the g3 to the pc in download mode, and then pressed start in odin directly @ the beginning the g3 went out and since that it not turns on and not goes download mode and not gets recognized on the pc. So no chance to get it in odin detected battery loading also not doing.
That is all i know about it since he tried to flash it with odin the phone doesnt do anything anymore.

Did he flash bootloader? If he did, its a confirmed hardbrick. If he didn't, I think you need to check with the service centre. Maybe the phone has something wrong with its hardware.

Okay i asked him again he hold me the following. He had connected the G3 to the PC and wanted to start flashing but directly after he connect it to PC the phone was off since that it is dead he had not pressed start in odin and nothing. Just connected it to PC and seconds later the phone was completly Dead. No Bootloader flashing nothing. The phone doesn´t charge doesn´t gets detected by pc on usb cable doesn´t go to download mode. I have a usb jig for S and S2 but with that jig the G3 also not goes to download mode. so he not started flashing in Odin just had the G3 on the usb cable on PC and seconds later it was dead completly.

hi
how to do that, how i must reinstall usb driver in my phone ?

You have to reinstall drivers on pc, not phone.

U flashed cfroot come from where?
And I think u have boot loop.
If you can go download mode, than u can do flashing stock ROM. Just have to settle your PC driver.
Try uninstall all driver, and shutdown and restart PC (not restart PC), and reinstall again
Or get another PC which never install Samsung driver, install on it and see if Odin can detect your phone.
Or, try different USB port.
Edit: if you flashed other model cfroot, you have no hope.

i've already to reinstall usb driver one try on mac one try on windows, sorry severla try.
but i hope always.
FYI
i've alredy swap the usb cable
swap Os mac windows
Reinstall usb driver

Strange Thing

and the batterie is not in charge when i've connected it to the usb power

[Q] Lenovo S820 boot loop help!

Hi! I recently purchased Lenovo S820 and I'm ultra happy with this device from any aspect! But.. Well, I searched but didn't find CWM for S820 to flash zips, so I decided to try Flash Gordon to flash a zip file, which, all in all, drove my device to have a boot loop, meaning that it stucks on the boot logo and never turns on. I know that the developer of Flash Gordon isn't responsible at all for my brick, but I don't know what to do now because the default recovery of Lenovo S820 is in chinese and I cannot understand a single thing. Can you help me translate it please? You can see the recovery pic below:

Re flash ur unit with stock ROM using flashtool
Sent from my Lenovo S820_ROW using xda app-developers app

Same problem!
My Lenovo s820 is also stuck in a bootloop after I tried to flash a cwm to it using mobileuncle mtk tools
Now the phone won't go into recovery mode. Everytime I try, it gets stuck in the bootloop where it only shows the lenovo logo and goes off and boots to the same point again, and the loop continues.
It still goes into meta mode and factory mode.
I don't know where to find the stock rom, although I have a backup of it which I took using mtk droid tools
I tried restoring the backup while keeping my phone in meta mode but it did not work
Is it possible to flash the backup using flash tools? Could you give me a tutorial if possible? I'm new to android and don't know much
Please help! I'm panicking and don't know what to do!

First,install MTK preloader drivers
then dL SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1332.0.187
reflash with Stock ROM S820 ROW
after flashing stock rom,you can install
CWM Recovery using Flashtool again.

I put the phone in meta mode and started the flashing process
A pink progress bar happened about 3 or 4 times and then it just stops at 0% and nothing happens at all

You have to install the preloaded drivers first. Then start the flashing process on SP Flash Tools. You'll be prompted to connect your phone. That's when you have to hold the volume down button and connect it without the battery. Your phone will be connected then and the flashing process will happen normally. I had the same issue as you initially but I think its normal because I could still flash my phone and restore it.

Link is not working

Hey guys just a quick question. I recently saw a kitkat ROM for the S820 on needroms so I'm assuming lenovo finally rolled out an update and someone made some variations for it. What I want to know is if anyone has tried it, is it good, does it cause any problems, and is it easy to root?

Its normal that it got disconnected by itself. You will see it only for few seconds like 2-5 secs. The moment you see it, you need to right click on it and need to install the driver. The driver too is quite small it merely 10Kb. Check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2180436
Hope this helps.

Emergency Recovery - doesn't recognise device

Hey,
I just flashed the firmware from another region and I have no idea why but it has failed at the end of the transfert.
Now I've got the blue screen saying that I need to connect my device to my computer and use the Emergency recovery function in SmartSwatch but it doesnt recognise my device...
I tried to reinstall the driver, change the usb port but it keeps failing!
Any idea?
I still have access to the download mode but when I try with the same file it failed, I'll try to download another firmware to see if it works.
Thanks

Connect it to Kies on your computer and use Kies factory firmware recovery setting to get your phone back up and running.

Neither Kies, Kies3 or Smart Swatch was able to see my device???
However I was able to flash the firmware using Odin :good:
I may try to re-download and install again a firmware from another region but it's pretty scary now
Yeah I know it's pretty stupid but I really want this TWRP to be working^^

Ok now I have download but no software recognises my phone and Odin fails...

By forcing my mobile to go into download mod (push Home Button + Volume Down+Power) after a couple of attempts it finally goes into the download mod.
If you can go into the download mod but OdinPC still doesn't work you have to try with another computer but if you can't go into download mod....
Hope you can fix it

even i have the same issue with my phone, its not detected by smart switch or any kies at all and now my phone is just a brick, plz help.

did you try to downgrade your os?
if so you need a firmware equal or bigger than the one you installed.

once you enter your sn in smart switch it will start downloading fw for your phone, and store it temporary in a temp folder.
From there you can copy fw to some other location on your disk, and flash it via Odin.

Use odin to load the stock AP file. Solve my problem.
