[REMOVE] Hardbricked galaxy s6 - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
A friend of mine brought me an s6 that is hardbircked and asked me to fix it. I cannot enter safemod or download mode. The only thing that i cand do is enter into a thing that says "enter boot mode" where i can navigate but cant select anything.
So i was wandering if there is any solutinon for this or is the phone dead?

Right first of hold down all the buttens ( vol up , down, home , power) and the phone should turn on then go to black , once its black , hold power + vol down to accsess download mode then flash the right firmware for the device , this is how i fix my s6 when i hard brick it
if this dosnt work do you know what your friend did to it to hard brick it and the model number ( flash a bad kernal , change the bootsplash badly etc)

Thanks for replying,
It didn't enter download mode, it shows the same "Select boot mode" menu. My friend said that the phone was rooted and he tried to unroot it. What do you think i should try in this situation?

Can u send a image of this "select boot mode" menu because ive never encounted this menu as far as i remeber

Normaly you use volumes to go up and down etc and the power butten is to select , so how do u acsess this menu , does it just happen when u turn it on or etc
EDIT In your image does it say vol down is select , i cant read it cause of the reflection of the light sorry

PC recognise the phone while in this mode?
Try some ADB commands to see if you have acces to it. If that, then type adb reboot bootloader and maybe you're lucky to get it to work.

I dont have acces through adb. I've tried. I was thinking maybe an usb jig would help. What do you think?

You can try usb jig as it's only few bucks on ebay. If not maybe jtag and that's it.

You can find the serial on the back of your device or the bottem. The box will also have it as well. Not sure what you will do with that though...IF you can get it in recovery mode you could use odin and restore the factory firmware if its available for download...

You need to hold power, Vol up And Vol dn when turning on
This should take you to recovery: select wipe. Then reboot

[Q] Can't use power button to unlock phone via HTCDev

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to flash a custom ROM, and every method requires me to unlock the bootloader via HTCdev, but I have two problems:
1) I can't boot into bootloader. When I hold power + volume-down, the phone boots into safe mode (I don't think that's normal right?). I took care of this by using adb and (adb reboot bootloader) to get into the bootloader.
2) When I'm in the bootloader, the power button (to make any selections) doesn't work. So I'm always stuck at the last screen that says "Unlock bootloader?" and I just have to select "yes" with the power button, but I simply can't!
Does anyone know how I can get the bootloader to work normally, or get my power button to work when I'm in fastboot?
Thanks in advance!

Read the screen on your phone , you got to use volume up or volume down button to select yes or no , i think volume up is for yes and than press power

Maybe certain fastboot commands may help a little, if the power button is damaged. (Maybe take off the back cover and see if you can then push it down properly..)

And not exactly.
If I recall correctly,
vol down means moving down on the list
vol up means moving up on the list
& power button is 'select'

When you are in that screen that i showed you, what happens when you press Volume up , does it select on the scree YES unlock the bootloader (may avoid you warranty) ? If yes it select's than press power button to continue... and you will unlock you bootloader if not i don't have anything else on my mind :/

Volume up works but the power button doesnt
I'm also stuck in this screen for the past week, I got this phone for free, but now I want to root it but I'm stuck in this screen. I've tried several tools like kgs1992utility, hasoon2000's utility, even the windroid tool for htc sensation, but somehow I simply cannot get passed this screen. Is there any adb commands to replace the power button to select?
only the volume down button works, but it works in the opposite way(ex volume down actually takes you up not down) -__-
cant finish power button will not select yes
I am having the exact same problem the power button suddenly will not work on yes but does on no WIERD and very FRUSTRATING

So I had the exact same issue. I pressed the power button and volume down together and the phone rebooted back into the bootloader, this time it says *** UNLOCKED*** at the top of the screen.

CAnt access CWM Mode on Samung WAVE GT-S8500

Hello,
I installed this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2550138
Evrything works fine (Exept Googleplaystore) but the only downside to this i cant access the recovery mode (for GApps) at all.
All combination (holding Vol+/Power , VOL+/Home, Vol-/Power) with all starting combination dont let me access RECOVERY MODE but only start the cyanogenmod.
The only thing i deleted after installing is the Rom Zip file. zImage still there etc.
I want to install GAPPS but i cant find a solution on any site.
Is it not Vol UP + Home + Power? not just the 2 buttons as you put..
Press and hold Vol Up, Home, Power (in that order) .. keep holding until Samsung Wave logo comes up.. then you can let go of Power.

No, it isn't....the instruction on the side tell.. VOL+ and Power but that doesn't work at all.
Dound a "workaround" .
IN Deveelopermode u can set it to "restart to recovery" and that way u can access it. Easier.

Hmm.. i didn't know that about the Wave.
We'll that's why these forums are good.. we are always learning.
With that option, we're you able to get to the recovery to install GApps properly?

that happened to my old ativ s as well, it was due to a broken power button (electrically stuck, not mechanically) the only solution for me was to solder a new power button on it. But I just used it as an excuse to get a new phone.

I haven't, it may be very hard depending on the phone model, I just removed it with pliers so I could boot it with a usb cable and I got all the data I needed from my phone.
Can you get your phone into recovery or fastboot mode?

So I try to unsolder the power button and now the phone didn't bootloop anymore. Now I'm waiting the new power button I ordered to see.
And to answer your question, I was not able to reach fastboot or the recovery

if you install gravitybox and xposed there should be an option to turn on the screen with the volume buttons (I'm not sure though, it might have been another module) so you could use that as a temporary solution.

with phone turned off, (you can remove the battery and re plug it), hold the volume down button and connect it to the wall charger(do not use PC,it will trigger lg download mode), then you will be able to go to fastboot.
Once there you can:
fastboot reboot to boot to normal OS
fastboot boot twrp so you can install a rom or any other mod

as i said, you need a computer once you reach fastboot mode, to send the commands.
fastboot reboot - to boot into normal OS
fastboot boot twrp - to boot twrp

Now I'm just waiting my new power button
i had this **** sorry for swearing i thought its something with my ROM CM13 Nightly I tried the repair service they said that they changed the power button no data was deleted so its probably the button but some one had a guide how to get the phone out that **** using your PC and manual ADB commands ( No program command line only )
I need help with this issue
when this problem reached me it was a meter of replacing the power button itself (it's like stuck there) by the way my phone was still under warranty so they changed it for me

Hey,
I have the same problem with the bootloop and the corrupted locking screen. I'm able to boot into download mode, but I can't figure out which system to flash. I tried several ones, but none of them worked... and I can't get back to the factory recovery. If somebody has an idea which recovery system could work I would be very pleased to know.
Software used to Flash: Odin
