I can't go to download mode or recovery mode . It scews me

if you have no way into download mode your screwed. Look for different ways into download mode and see if you can get it

If you forsure cant get into download mode ask T-Mobile for a exchange. It is very easy to complete and since it happened after an official update you should have no issues completing the exchange

try pullin battery. plug phone into computer. hold volume up and volume down. put battery in. prest-o change-o you should see an android w/exclamation point in a triangle. if this fails a jig from skorpion(I believe that is his name) might help, just fyi ur vibe is probably 99% un-brickable.

Try to connect ur phone to pc & if you' ve seen an icon phone+pc+!, your in download mode..odin can read it..or you can simultaneously hold vol up + power to get into download mode

Probably your phone is bricked.
try the following,
1. take the battery out once and put again (to make sure its off)
2. connect the usb cable to phone and connect to your system
2. press vol up + vol down + home button + power button at the same time for few seconds and you can hear a beep sound from your system and can see that windows found new hardware and will install drivers now continue installing original firmware using odin.
hope this helps.
message me if you need more information.
Note: Ofcourse its your risk am just trying to help you

Bricked Phone! - Dead - NEED HELP!!

Hi guys, I'm gonna tell you what happened with my S4 to see if you can help me.
I got a MetroPCS Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919N) then I went to a tech and unlocked it. After 2 days the screen started blinking in pink color and I decided to flash it with a stock ROM from T-Mobile (SGH-M919-TMB-M919UVUAMDL-1366964131) using ODIN. Everything was great, in a couple of days the screen went kinda black (No brightness at all) I could barely see it. In this state with the phone turned off and tried to plug in to the PC or charge it and started blinking in green color. I decided once again to flash it with the stock ROM mentioned above but the phone won't enter in recovery or download mode after that I tried to flash it with the CyanogenMOD Installer......everything was OK but it stuck in about 75%, left the phone connected for 20min aprox and nothing happened. I unplugged it and tried to turn it on (It vibrates but I get no startup sound, logo, boot, anything!) ODIN doesn't recognized anymore, can't enter in recovery or download.
I tried to reboot download with ADB to flash it with ODIN but usb debugging is not enabled and ADB commands doesn't work.
I don't know what to do with my S4, I hope you guys can help me. I'm not in the US so I can't return it for replacement.
I hope to hear from you soon. THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Is the battery working ok? Does the LED go red when charger is plugged in as normal?
What happens when you try to boot to recovery?

If your screen start blinking pink and after that turning black, why do assume it's a software problem? No rom would cause that. It's clearly a hardware failure.

The battery is OK, I tested it already with another phone. The LED doesn't turn on when the charger is plugged in. When I try to enter to recovery it vibrates but nothing else happens (Black Screen).

The screen would cause no sound, no LED light, no download or recovery mode, etc..?

Hiya I found as a bit of a n00b Jtag painful as a senior member would there be a guide that we could learn from? I wasn't able to find one.:fingers-crossed:

Service center is better idea, since they can't go to download mode to see your phone stil got warranty or not.. just say phone dead ... while In pocket automatically

You don't have to be in the US, it's just going to cost you more in shipping. Maybe you can find someone in your country that can jtag. Try some of the local phone repair shops.

[Q] Galaxy S4 Hard Bricked

So my Galaxy S4 won't turn on at all, no download mode, no vibrate wont even vibrate when plugged in. It's fully dead. I flashed clockwork mod recovery yesterday and when I rebooted my phone wouldn't turn on at all. I've tried two battery and two chargers and none worked. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Hi ,
What model S4 you have? what cwm you flashed
If not booting you may have to use a USB JIG type solution to get it into download mode
Make sure the power button is ok.......

Tap the power button too see if it is stuck.
If everything is fine..use a USB JIG..can get it easily to $3 and put it into download mode..and flash your stock rom..
Press Thanks if I helped

The USB jig when inserted..forces your phone into download mode..
One in the dowload mode..you can flash the stock rom..

A jig won't work if it's fully dead.
