bricked?!? -SOLVED-

I've tried the "brick fixes" on this forum, but without luck so far... I can get into download mode, and I've tried flashing with odin from this post which says "passed" to me. After this is reboots into a black screen after the "galaxy S" screen, and nothing can be done except making the capasitive buttons light up...
All help is appreciated!!
FYI I don't have a SD card installed during odin...
Solutions in #6 and #7...
Thanks a ton

Sounds like a boot loop, but I can't figure out why you would get one with the stock odin flash. Try doing a factory reset? it shouldn't be needed, but who knows?

how? tried the "hard reset" whitout luck

In recovery.. there should be a factory reset option. I thought odin did that though.

when it is resetting I can read "mbr checksum error" or similar in yellow text before it's wiping data etc...

Try this ...turn you phone off but keep it plugged into you cpu usb cord and open oidin, next put your phone in download mode and put the needed files in oden and click start I had a hard time getting odin to work right for some reason this may not help but it worked for me. Good luck I don't think you bricked I think you can come out of this.

I assume that you used the partition in ROM Manager? If so I had the same problem as you. The phone would boot up to a black screen with only the buttons working. What I did was flash Eugenes 2.2 Froyo Rom, I surprised that it booted up and worked. After that I flashed back to stock rom and it work as it did before!

I turned the phone off while the usb was connected when the phone if off open odin ounce its open boot up the phone and boot it into download mode from there odin will connect and you can put the files you need into it and click start. This worked well for me when I needed to revert back to factory vibrant after flashing the "Real lag FIX" kernel that made my ear piece not work and some of my buttons not work but boy was my phone snappy and my benchmarks were awesome but what good does that do when your girl calls you and you cant hear her and all she can hear is you saying hellllllllooooooo .

I"ve been trying to flash with odin now for about 2 hours. It gets stuck on DO NOT DISCONNECT. And never finishes.

You have managed to get into download mode right? My device is up and running stock now, but gonna try some other ROM now =)

Glad to hear your phone is back up and running .

i know this is an old thread, but i figure this can help someone later... brick is a common search term, and i figure this will come up in a search and this will save time for others...
here's what happened to me. i was flashing back to stock and was in download mode. the blue bar was moving etc and murphy and his dumb law decided to kill my my usb port... i thought the phone was DEAD! nothing i did woke the phone up. no battery indicator, buttons didn't do anything... it was all black. holding up/down and power didnt turn the phone on and into recovery or download mode... the phone was DEAD...
then after scouring the forum forever, i finally got the phone into download mode...
NOTE: i don't recall if the usb wire was plugged into the computer or not... i think it was though...
NOTE2: samsung drivers should have been installed already...
- remove the battery
- hold vol up and vol down buttons
- reinsert battery
i thought WOO HOO!! I GOT INTO DOWNLOAD MODE!!!
the next issue i had was getting odin to recognize the phone... it didn't detect what com port i had. but after a lot of reading, i finally got it to work...
- open odin first
- then get into download mode using the steps above...
after odin recognized the port the phone was plugged into, i flashed back to stock rom using the instructions given on this site... and my dead phone works again...
i was able to fix a dead phone!! this phone could be un-brickable!!
i hope this helps...

Open odin first, then plug in your phone.

help please my epic fails to start

hello
Froyo need an update to the root user. delete some files and now will not start. I can not connect via USB. in case you have an update by sd
please help

Can you get into download mode? Pull your battery, put it back in, open the phone, hold the 1 button down on the keyboard while holding power. Does this get you into a special screen?

gracias
deja pruebo

not start the phone. because they replace a file. I can do?
serves to download mode

Can you get into recovery mode? If you can then I would take out your SD card from your phone and insert it into a card reader and copy one of the stock builds onto your Sd card. Put SD card back into phone, boot into recovery and flash the build.

I'm sorry for asking so much. is that I am new to this.
where I can download it. is hard to find me I'm from mexico
but thanks

had not tested the download mode
thanks

Booting blues
I am having booting problems with my Epic. running Android 2.2 with stock EC05.
If I do an nandroid restore it goes through normally but then hangs prior to the reboot. Have to a battery out reset, wakes up in roboot menu, and then reboots normally.
Did a cold reboot (<1>+Power on), gave me the Downloading Do no switch off screen. this persisted for over 10 minutes with no progress. I then took out the battery, reinserted it, and it took off normally.
Please advise and help!

My problem was that it started.
I did was upgrade to Froy.
I worked

Help to find a program or link to a partitioned rom S4 GT- I9515L

Good afternoon, someone there knows some link to a program that to partition a rom : CSC , PDA, MODEM and BOOT ?. Or if you know the CYGWIN and reliable program partition the roms ?
PS : I have a Galaxy S4 GT- I9515L and could not find rom partitioned into place some ! Thank you very much in advance

If you want to flash a stock rom, look for the rom on sammobile.com and just flash the entire rom in the pda slot of Odin 3.07. There is no need to split the file for flashing.

yes and so I'll explain my case. he hung from nothing and when I tried to restart it , it just came into infinite lopping . I tried to make a recovery on it however, when I clicked on power + home button + up he gave a message in blue writing recovery booting and restarted again. I tried to install a rom stock and even the TWRP recovery but he is not out of the infinite lopping and not access the recovery . I wanted a solution to my case because I'm already researching ha two weeks. You know what can be ? and how to solve? I would greatly appreciate it if you helped me

Try again by opening Odin, uncheck auto reboot, flash rom, remove USB cable, remove battery, replace battery, boot into recovery. When you boot to recovery, release the power button as soon as the phone powers up but keep holding home and volume up.

Note 4 won't boot anymore... :-s

Hi,
I'm having issues booting the Note 4.
The first time the problem appeared is when I flashed the stock rom from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1
I started then having problem with the battery, I switched to un non official one. It made the problem worse.
Now The phone won't start anymore. It's either blocked on the logo or the logo + the blue recovery booting...
I flashed it back to 5.1.1 with no results. I just want to do a wipe/factory reset but can't enter recovery mode.
I flashed a TWRP recovery but then It says : "recovery booting, recovery is not seandroid enforcing, set warranty bit..." so I read that I have to boot to a stock rom...on the internet it says that if you are having issues to enter recovery you should flash twrp recovery...So I'm kinda stuck here.
Can someone help me unlock my phone please? I just want to enter recovery to try the wipe/factory reset
Thank you very much

Use the device specific recovery firmware from this thread.
It consists of pit, ap, bl, cp and csc.
Also the instructions to flash a recovery firmware are mentioned , follow them.

Its the debrick.img for n910f.
You will have to download it from mega server.
Sent from my SM-N910G using Tapatalk

Hi,
I was not able to try this till now.
Something is not clear in the procedure :
-Open win32diskimager, load the debrick.img(3.74gb for n910f and 16mb for n910g).
-Flash it on a blank sd card, the card should be completely formatted and should be in fat32 format.
[/B ]-Once done, put that sd card in your bricked device.
-Connect it to your pc.
-Hold the power button for at least 10 sec or try the download mode key trio.
-It should vibrate.
-If it doesnt, hold it in front of an air conditioner,
let it cool( this has been tested).
-If it still doesnt vibrates, remove the battery, hold the power button for 10sec and then insert the battery.
-Now again try to press power button.
>So, once it vibrates, leave it for around 5min.
-Then press the volume down key+power+home.
-It should boot in to download mode.
-Now you can flash stock rom or recovery firmware.
This procedure doesn't explain what to do with that Debrick file that is in the sd card. I was able to connect to the pc, and enter the download mode, it has never been an issue.
So please once the sd card (with debrick.img in it) is in the phone and the phone in download mode what to do with that debrick.img? Am I missing something?
Thanks a lot

up

what if you try the stock from here https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=26335 and flash one of the BLs w/ that

Note 4 won't charge or boot - Fixed
Hello,
My note four recently started running sluggishly and the battery would only charge to 77%. I rebooted it and it was now stone dead, would not charge, boot , nada. This is the fix I found that worked for me:
Take out battery, sim card, and mem card. Install back cover. Place phone in ziplock sandwich bag and seal. Place bag into freezer for 20 minutes. Remove bag/phone from freezer, reassemble battery, sim and mem cards. Press the start key and phone should boot(mine did). If not, plug into Samsung fast charger and try booting again.
Regards

J5 not booting up

First it started right into Odin Mode. After holding Volume Down and Power to exit it, the screen went black (as expected). However, afterwards it won't boot up again. Tried normal boot, recovery and download. Removed the battery and put it again, didn't work. Also tried various cables and outlets. Tried the sequence for download mode (holding Power + Volume Down + Home, then pressing Volume Up - even if it didn't show anything on screen) and connected it to my PC. The computer played the sound as if a device was connected, then after some seconds Windows said that the USB device was not recognized. Odin did not recognize it either. Samsung 300K tool doesn't work as well. Do you have any suggestions, please? It's quite urgent.

I can't. It's not booting at all. Never rooted it or changed its ROM.

You mean it doesn't even show download mood or recovery mood?

I've flashed marshmallow stock on stock lollipop via Odin but after completion J500H boots and immediately resets or off after first boot screen appears. so please help that why this problem is here???
Also please tell that custom ROM can be installed on the J500H or not ( bootloops and restart issue immediately)

Is it possible to flash again? If yes...
Then first wipe delvik cache then flash again, before flashing make sure to untick auto reboot on odin's log option... After flashing done don't reboot immediately first wipe delvik cache then restart...
If it doesn't allow you to flash then u need to take it to service center...
Yes it's possible to install custom rom using Odin but sometimes it fails if usb debugging is not enabled! You can search on Google for that or any thread here.
