[Q] Problems with Download Mode - Galaxy Spica General

Hi guys
I bricked my galaxy Spica a while a go und it was lieing around for a while no. I thought i could give it a try to unbrick it again.
The situation at the moment:
When I start it, bootloop.
Recovery isent working.
I can get it to download mode, but if i connect it to my win7 computer per usb, the pc doesent get a connection. The drivers are installed, but Odin cant connect to it.
I allso tryied AdamOutlers one click unbrick, but dident get a connection eather. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153310
I also tried to get it connected over ADB. With the command ADB devices I ony get "list of al atached devices" followed by nothing.
Anybody here has an idea what else i could do to get the phone connected to the computer? Or do you think its a permanent brick?

May be you need to make youself a jig!!!!

All you should need is download mode after a full charge (!) and then either do a full reset (use the options in Odin to reset apart from EFS clear ;-) ) and then you should be able to use download mode properly.
For the drivers, how does it show up in Device Manager?? I had this myself a while back and it was simply that the drivers didn't match how it was showing up. After searching around for a while I found various packages on samdroid.net and the right ones for me then worked fine. Either the Kies ones, the google ones or the Nexus S drivers from tom3q's CM7 build...

[Q] No USB connection between my HD2 & my computer

I have HTC HD2,I was trying to upgrade to Android, I think I made a mistake I installed “MAGLDR113” before upgrading my Radio to version 2.15.50.14. After I installed MAGLDR113 I connected my phone to my computer and the telephone was stuck in boot mode and was never able to see USB connection. Now my computer does not recognize my phone anymore and I can’t flash a new Radio version since I have no connectivity to my computer. I tried several things but all was useless. Can anyone help me telling me how I can have a USB connection to my computer??
Thank you.
do you have tried to start and hold volume button... than connect to usb and simply install a stock rom (for example from your provider) - this must work... if not - you have bigger problem.

Answered so many times. turn your phone off then turn it on "while holding volume down.It will then take to bootloader(rainbow screen).It suppose to have a cotulla written above the rainbow screen.Now flash it with a stock rom came from HTC site..No need to sync your phone to your PC..Just flash it..Start all over again..Now you can search before doing somehing with your phone.If that didn't help you. You have a bigger problem..
Yes I tried this also but it doesn't work.
What didn't work? Can you boot into bootloader - ie switch off, press and hold vol down button and switch phone on.
You should then boot into a multi-coloured screen and should see "serial" at the bottom of the screen.Then connect device to usb port (preferably one at back of your pc and a different one that you haven't used before if possible) - let the drivers install if applicable - does "serial" change to "usb"?
Do wat d above posters have suggested then try different usb ports or even a different windows pc...For all we know, your usb cable might be faulty....Also did u perform HARDSPL before anything else?
I've started experiencing this very same thing. HD2 wont regognize usb connection while in bootloader screen. I get the usb connection sound but never says usb at bottom of screen like it used to. I've been trying android builds via sd but wanted to try my first flash but cant even instal MAGLDR cos it just fails at bootloader cos of no connection. Has been driving me wild for 3 days now.
try plugging the phone into a different USB port it should work then...
Tried that all day and it said couldn't install drivers, then just tried the same ports now and its worked. I think it was mobile device center had 2 set-ups for my phone, i deleted the older one and all seems fine now.
This is crazy, now i'm stuck on magldr and won't find usb.
I'm leaving nand now cos i'm close to smashing my phone to pieces, magldr usb flasher will not find the connection no matter what i try, so i'm staying with ****ty windows mobile. Not happy but i've been trying for days now.

I am experiencing this exact same problem. Bootloader wont recognize the USB stays in SERIAL. Tried different ports, cord is fine. What is the problem.
Before this, my HTC HD2 would just hard reset on its own ONCE A DAY! Why was it doing this?
Now it gets stuck on the white HTC loading screen. Wont get passed it. I used to be able to hard reset by doing the volume keys down and reset but NOPE... still wont load past that white screen.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have you guys tried deleting the drivers using a utility like USBDeview? Try deleting anything that relates to HTC OR HD2, replug the phone in, re-install the drivers.

Of course it won't work without drivers. The computer needs drivers to communicate with the phone. In normal mode, unplug the phone, Google the application, download it, open it, click everything that has HTC or HD2 in it and click uninstall. Plug the phone in, let the drivers install themselves again. Try again.

Ok... i rebooted into Normal mode, downloaded the utility, did a search for "HTC" found nothing, did a search for "HD" found nothing. So i am now installing windows mobile center for windows 7 which should have the appropriate drivers.
Install Windows mobile device center 6.1, problem solved.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
I'm able to view through USBDeview that my HD2 is connected, however I'm unable to view/open it.. I screwed up by naming the 'temp' folder to 'copy_to_sd_root'..
The instructions confused me. I figured this was the folder that needed to be copied to the sd root... however when i rebooted the phone, I was unable to access it. Any recommendations?
SOLVED
I was overlooking the USB Flash option.
If you are still having problems, let your phone turn on(no multi-color screen), select: USB Flash, click the DAF.exe installation file, follow the prompts.
You're done.
I had this problem and I solved it disabling an option in activesync. I can't remember what was exactly the checkbox, but was in "options" and it said something like "allow usb connections" or something like this.
I just disabled it and rebooted the device holding volume down.
Good luck!
Make Sure Phone is not connected to PC
Goto cotrol panel in windows
Uninstall HTC BMP USB Driver
Uninstall HTC Driver Installer
Uninstall HTC Sync
Unisntall Windows Mobile Device Center
Restart the PC
start the phone holding power and vol dn and now connect the phone to PC. should detect and install the drivers and you should be able to see USB on phone screen.
if this does not work
Delete all the USB root HUB but keep as last option in device manager.
PS: This will cause ALL the USB devices to redetect.
Let me know if this works

Cant find what I need...

I have here an sch-i800 that wont turn on... Someone tried to update it with odin and obviously failed... Anyway the only sign of life I get is when I hook up to pc it tries to install the drivers for boot loader I am assuming and fails. I have been looking around for solutions but find nothing. If youre gonna scold me for not googling dont because I have. Just wondering if someone knows something that google doesnt. I can see the tablet in device manager as SEC_S5PC110_TEST_B_D_DRIVER. Please any help would be appreciated.
does your computer have the samsung usb drivers installed?
have you tried booting into download mode and use odin to flash the correct firmware needed by your device?
As hinirang said, the device drivers could be an issue - I found that installing Samsung Kies automatically installs the appropriate device drivers. A good idea would be to kill the Kies process before connecting via Odin, though.
Try re-installing the driver as they might be corrupted but behaving as they are all right!!

If the phone won't turn on at all you might be boned.
Odin and all that obviously require you to be able to boot to download mode.
Are you positive the battery is good? Could you find another battery to try?
Does the charging light come on when its plugged in? Are there any signs of life at all?

I think it does turn on because the phone does continue to heat up but its just a black screen also i can put it into download mode and it stays there without being plugged into charge. I'm not sure about the battery ill have to check that out. ill get back to you.
It sounds like you dont have recovery or a rom installed at all.
To fix that you need odin. If the PC wont recognize the phone that is a problem. Did you try a different USB cord to connect to the PC? They are not all created equal.

yes i have used both the original one that came with the phone and the s5 one that my brother has, i have had no luck.
my phone shows up as "msm8960" or mtp usb device also it it device driver software was not successfully installed.
[UPDATE] i have found something similar to odin called JOdin3 that connects to my phone, through this i will try to flash a stock firmware, downloaded from sammobile, and see what happens.
Odin doesn't work without the drivers, and since you had an issue with the drivers that would explain why Odin doesn't work yet JOdin3 does.

I installed the samsung drivers several times and it still wouldn't connect to the pc, i also installed kies and it still wouldn't work, but it was working before i bricked my phone. i have fixed my phone through JOdin3.But thank you everyone for your help.
Will it connect now through Odin or Kies?

No it still wont connect to either but the computer does recognize the phone.
MTP is built into Windows, so the fact the PC detects the phone is a good sign. The entire problem you're having seems to hinge on your PC rejecting the Samsung drivers, which are absolutely required for Odin to function. Those drivers should have no problems installing, and I have successfully installed them on both Windows 7 (x64) and Windows 8.1 machines so I know the installer does work.
There could be many reasons as to the source of your problem, such as a corrupt file or registry entry from when the phone soft-bricked. You want to take a closer look and do some detective work here. Uninstall the drivers if you haven't already done so. Clean out the PC with CCleaner. Even attempt a reinstall of the drivers in the PC's safe mode. Regardless of what you choose to do, if you ever wish to use Odin, you'll need to get this resolved.

yeah ill definitely try to fix the problem because odin is such a great tool. i have uninstalled and installed the samsung drivers but i'll go search the net and what not to try and find a fix. odin was working before when i flashed the stock rom and changed something to mtp and adb (i think i put in an ussd code or something (*#0808#) and through that i was able to use odin) but because the wifi wasn't working on the stock rom, i flashed a custom rom to fix the wifi problem but was once again greeted with the odin problem.

[Q] Gionee E7 (32GB) got bricked

I tried to downgrade from Kitkat to JB via flashtool this morning which I often successfully flashed with the same method. But while the flashing is going on and almost finish the flashing (system.img, userdata.img, etc. are already flashed), there seems to be some problem and popped out that the flashing is fail. And then the device does not boot up. While I tried to reconnect the device to PC, the PC cannot recognize the device as shown in the picture. Unable to process any further method. Does anyone in this forum knows how to recover the bricked device like this?
The phone starts? In a black screen?
If the PC detects it like that the phone has some energy and connection...
Does anything apears on the screen? Can you go to the Recovery Mod?
Have you tried to force the driver installation on that USB item that appears on device manager?
Do you have access via ADB or fastboot?
Did you nottest in what partition did the error message appeared?
Please provide some answers to these questions so i can try to help you...

Nothing on the screen. Not able to boot into recovery or adb is not working. The phone is just death. But, when I insert the usb cable, the pc can detect it. I even approach the Customer Care here in Aizawl, but they cannot fixed. Even when I followed the instruction as per one xda member posted here, The qualcom hs - 9006/8 is displayed on the device manager and when I tried to flashed it with emergency mode, the result always the same. FAILS

Try this:
- Start GNQC with the phone disconnected
- Connect the Phone and see GNQC recognizes the QLoader
- If so, press power button until the phone vibrates
- Wait for the GNQC recognizes again the QLoader and press Download on Emergency Mode
Use this KIKAT ROM: https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B8H5JoBDpTnJMGE2QTJPR0FWX0E
This worked for me, i had the phone completly died, not even recognized by the PC, waited a day and tried again.
Once the QLoader is recognized your good to go!!
I'm having another problem after that, now theres no GSM/3G signals....
I need a EFS backup with the TWRP recovery.... No one seems to have

thianpa he thil hi i solve thei toh m

Galaxy s4 i9500 doesnt connect to pc. Stuck in bootloop. No recovery or safe mode.

Okay so here goes. I've looked at the forums searching far and wide for anything that may help.
The problem is I have an S4 that had some battery problems. (swollen) so i replaced it out for a new one. The shop that I bought it from claimed that it was an original replacement battery (I live in Pakistan so finding an original battery was hard for me). So the phone worked fine for about half a month and now it's acting weird.
1. It seems to be stuck on a boot loop. but sometimes will start and run for a few minutes (random amount of time) and then go back into the reboot phase.
2. the phone does not go into recovery mode. The recovery screen pops up for a second followed by a no command screen and then phone goes back to boot loop.
3. the phone doesnt go into safe mode either. So i cant check if its a app related problem.
I tried to then flash a new recovery or the stock rom. The phone doesn't connect to odin/ nor Dr.fone for android.
-> Windows doesn't install the MTP drivers even though i have the latest version of KIES installed.
-> I have checked with a replacement battery the problem still persists.
Please HELP!!
Boot it into download mode, then try connecting it to a PC.
@GDReaper
The phone goes into download mode but the computer doesn't recognize it. It doesn't connect to odin and it says mtp drivers aren't installed..
