How to Reset Samsung Foucs - Focus General

Folks,
I got a new Samsung focus (Re 1.3) yesterday , followed a tutorial from youtube to install custom rom. Everything went good , like installing MAGLDR and later reset and installing ROM. After installing ROM, the guy told that teh SAMSUNG logo appears for a long time and we have to poweroff by removing the battery. I did the same but nothing was working on my mobile. It starts booting shows samsung screen and stucks at the following screenshot, i tried to connect it to laptop as it showed in screenshot,but even hours dint helped anything. Now i can only see the download mode , not even the format mode. I searched how to reset to factory setting, but nothing was found useful. I found two posts one with instructions and files are corrupted, one post with files but no instructions. please help me with this.
​Thanks,
WY.

Flash a stock rom from here (UCJK2 for Focus revision 1.3 / UCJK3 for 1.4).
Here's a flash tutorial.

Thank you very much for your help.. but some reason my mobile was not detected in the loader..everything was green but Start button is disabled and the mobile was not shown in the ports section.
Some how i am able to start it in format mode cancel and it went to magldr cmd..installed everything and this time works perfect.
Appreciate your help but i still dint get why start button was disable.

To "green" the port in the flasher, unplug the USB from your comp, wait about 2-3 seconds and plug it back. Just before flashing (after all are loaded).

As EnderPsp said u should always start the downloader first and then connect the phone in download mode.

i tried either way.. first attempt i connected mobile after loading the files as said in tutorial.. but start button was disabled and the mobile is not shown in ports section of the flasher..but it was shown clearly in system bar that mobile is connected and even safe remove was showing the mobile name. sorry to ask so many questions, its just in case it will be very useful for others in future.. thank you very much for your valuable replies.

Ok here goes my problem, Its an I-mate Jasjar and its not turning on when i press the Power button. It shows USB on top and V1.00 when entering Bootloader mode. I dont know what am i suppose to do after that as i ran into a professional guy on msn and he showed me how to get into bootloader mode and he is too busy to help me out so i am here.
What i did was Its battery was low and i tried to Hard Reset it and now it wont turn on.
So any help is much appreciated

This is the Error i am getting when i followed Method 2 .
Kindly tell me what am i doing wrong i already Unchecked the USB connection in ActiveSync ....Whatelse am i suppose to do...please guys i really love this phone and cant wait to use it again.
Thanks.
ZODI.
hi ZODI,
you better kill the ActiveSync all together by using windows tak manager. I mean to kill the process called wcescom.exe on your PC.
Then reconnect your UNIVERSAL.
Wait a bit, then have a look in PC's Device Manager, if your UNIVERSAL was recognised and it should be listed within USB devices as HTC USB Sync or similar.
If so, then do a reflash one more time.
good luck
buzz
Hi ZODI,
you'd better kill ActiveSync all the way down, by using windows task manager.
- disconnect your UNIVERSAL
- kill wcescomm.exe process on your PC
- connect your UNI again and wait a bit
- check if display shows USB at the top of the screen
- in PC's Device Manager check, if the device driver (HTC USB Sync) was loaded
If all done, proceed and do a ROM REFLASH.
If not, you may also check at http://buzzdev.net/list.php?40 mainly those two sticky posts at the top.
good luck
buzz
Ok giving it a try ....hope it works this time and thanks.

How to root, step-by-step.

ok guys, so first, i want to apologize for my bad english. im not very good when it comes to writing and talking.
let's go; what we are going to do is flash the ROM with aan included ROOT, with the posibility of wiping our device.
I remind you that: **I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE OR YOUR COMPUTER.**
**I RECOMMEND CHARGING YOUR BATTERY TO 100%**
**I ALSO RECOMMEND YOU TO MAKE A COPY OF ALL YOUR DATA**
YOU WILL MISS YOUR GARANTY IF YOU ROOT YOUR DEVICE**
​
First step: DOWNLOAD THE ROM Through this link and place it in your desktop.
2. you will also have to download ODIN 3​
3.in Developer options, activate the USB Debugging option (Settings --> Developer options --> USB Debugging
Ok, you have to start ODIN and you have to get your device in Downloading Mode. (you will do this by shuting it off. and then pressing *VOLUME DOWN KEY*+*HOME KEY*+*POWER KEY*. when you do that you should press the volume up key) When you are in Downloading mode you should connect your device to your PC.
4. Once synchronized, with Odin, you have to select "OPEN" where it says PDA. select the archive you downloaded before. (the one with the name *I8190XXALK6_I8190XEFALK1_HOME_ROOTED.tar.md5*) (you have to uncompress that item before using it)
5. then you press start in Odin, and wait 'til the instalation finishes. the your device should reboot and odin should show a message saying PASS!
6. then you should be able to boot your device like you do normally.
EXTRA STEPS JUST IF YOU HAVE ANY ERROR​
1. if you cant boot, you will need to WIPE your device instaling this archive and use it like in step 4 through the PDA button.
2. if you still have any problem, you should install this following step 4.
how your device should look like

This will install an older December rom! I'm afraid it's a step back, and bad advice.
Most countries have moved on from the LL2 rom in that file.
The instructions also mention the LK6 rom, which is even older, and not attached above.
this is avicoh first rooted rom and it was posted here on the forum long ago. I dont know why u reposted, to be honest i wayted for u to post but thought u come up with another solution that doesnt include Odin.
Best regards,
Yeah this isn't anything new, I and everyone here thought there was some kind of new ROOTING method. The Rom is already Rooted.

This has been covered before in the correct forum. Read before posting.

Can't Boot after attempt to root

So I tried the root for my Sprint Sharp Aquos Crystal and now it won't boot into recovery, or anything for that matter. When I plug it into the PC this is what it looks like.

When you hold the VOLUME DOWN + POWER you don't get anything? When you plug your device into your PC, what does the device manager say? Does it show anything with a question mark next to it?

I tried earlier, it does vibrate and all, and sometimes the notification light goes on. Device manager says "Qualcomm MMC Storage USB Device". I found a solution online potentially, but i'd need a stock rom for this phone. It's much like this image right here when I check partitions.
Device Manager also shows "marshall london hs-usb diagnostics 9006".
Same issue. To solve this issue we required the flash file for that phone . it is not a flashable zip. It contains some programing files for QPST/QFIL in format of .mbn and some XML files. I have experienced the same issue . I don't get any flash file from Google. It is available in service centres through a specific server of SHARP. we can copy illegally by giving some unaccounted money to sharp service centre where the phone is available .
This issue is experienced by me by using rooting app and it corrupted my entire phone ROM except some serial numbers

I thought so. I just wish I could fix it somehow.
Did anyone ever find a solution for this. Unfortunately I have done the same thing to my phone
Hey guys, try to connect the phone to the computer and reflesh the 15m rom. Then you can reboot your phone ang use it as usual.
I have the same issue with my 306SH after attempting to root with love.t6.apk. The phone turned off as soon as I launched that app, and now it only turns off to a blank screen. If I keep the power button pressed, or any combination of power and up/down volume, it will only produce some long buzzes. When connected to a computer it generates a long list of empty drives as shown in post #3.
Any help much appreciated.

hard bricked!

Don't panic. Copy the ROM/Firmware files to C:\Qualcomm\QPST\bin\ - Next is restart QFIL, re-select the required files with the new "LOCATION/PATH" which is the one you copied.
Now, remove your phone from computer and then click on Download in QFIL. Connect your phone by pressing Volume up and down.
Good luck!
@Jarvis_official, I think you are in good hands. It shouldn't be much of a problem if your device was detected. You only need to check directories correctly.

if youre not rooted, youre unlikely hacked. If you have the fear that you have been, factory reset from within the OS, remove any FRP lock, boot to recovery, factory reset in there literally 3 times. The 3 times part isnt because of your situation, its a constant across all galaxy devices to wipe more than once because phone weirdness does occur, reflash tour firmware from sammobile.com/firmwares with the regular CSC, not the HOME_CSC, reboot, set your phone up and any chance of it being hacked are gone.
Thank You
Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer, i cannot get into recovery mode either, since the Oreo 8.0.0 update my phone screen flashs when i get a call and going into recovery mode i release power when samsung shows then the android man comes for a split second then the flashing screen starts and the screen is totally covered with small vertical coloured lines, i found out when i went to wipe the cache partition but couldn't cos of the flashing and coloured screen, this all happened after the ota Oreo update, the flashing was constant at first i couldn't use the phone but now it's just with calls out or in and when the call ends it stops after about 10 seconds, that's why i haven't rooted which i would like to do as the Google and Samsung bloat is ridiculous, we shiuld be given the option, if we want them we can download them but not be forced to have them, but i'm afraid to root to remove them due to the flashing screen,but i think there are internal settings to reset it Thank you for your help
