First thing you should do is post in the right section. This is for the first gen tab P75xx series, not your send gen. Hope you can find your answer there.

Help with rooting t-mobile galaxy s4 - sorry if this is repost!!

Dear wonderful community.
Yesterday my htc one was lost..sad. So i went and purchased a brand new t-mobile samsung galaxy s4 (m919).
I went home and wished to root it. Simple process. Just one big problem. My pc did not want to recognize my phone.
Ok. So i figured let me go to the website and download latest drivers. Nope! Didnt work. Ok, let me try the kies method. Nope! Didnt work either. There is literally nothing that is going in my favor at the moment. I tried my friends galaxy s2, hey what do you know, easily recognized. Tried my s4 again. Nope! Absolutely refuses to be recognized. So here we are at work. Tried on my work pc. Guess what? Nope again!
Somebody please please please help me!
And again im sorry if this is a repost topic, if so please just point me in the right direction! Thank you ahead of time!

You can't flash the bootloader from the SD card - this is very dangerous.
You have to use Download mode to touch these partitions.

Dear nicholaschum,
Thank you for the reply,
I know this thread is old but I hope that what I found will help someone who is facing the same situation,
After a little digging I found the problem was a hardware malfunction specifically the PMIC,
I just replace it and the phone worked again,
Your advice is appreciated and noted,
I wish you all the best,
Best regards

I am really sorry about that,
I was overseas supervising a project in the middle of a dessert which made me forget a couple of things but now I rememberd them and this post was one of them,
And thank you for your kindness,
I wish you to live healthy, happy and peaceful life.
There is no sudden death with these devices...the sudden. Death was an old story that happened with note 2 and s3 dude ..and it is gone after the kit Kat and jelly bean updates..
Yes exactly ,
The problem was when i asked my friend he only told me that he put the phone on the charger and went to sleep and in the morning BAM the phone was dead,
And i asked him if there was something wrong with the phone before and he said nothing,
But when i put a fully charged second battery in it nothing happen so i figured out it was the PMIC.
Thanks for the clarification.

Pretty Please Help. Bricked S5 and Lost

So, I'm at a total and complete loss as to what to do. I have spent hours upon hours googling, and searching xda and trying step after step after guide after guide and I canNOT fix my S5! I've tried recovery, I've tried Odin and there has got to be something I'm missing. When I plug up the phone into my laptop, it sort of recognizes it, in the sense that it makes the notification noise of it being recognized, as with any external device. Odin picks it up as well. The issue is when trying to boot up the phone, it's stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S5 custom, android etc screen. it will not go past this. i'm almost in tears right now, and just want to get the phone working again. Is there anyone out there that can help???
Tiny update.
So I tried another method, and still having issues. Only difference is, I get past the powered by android screen, but then when getting to the Samsung with the color and oval it freezes and shuts down. One step forward, 2 steps back.

it is the 900a (at&t). after spending hours upon hours. i finally managed to do something and get it back to working again. the band and the firm ware match, and i managed to get rid of the unauthorized actions detected message.
good to hear!! (or see, rather LoL) usually a flash in Odin with the correct tarball fixes most issues with S5's

well, let's just say i have a folder of 26 links, majority from here on trying to find a solution on how to root and consequently unbrick my phone when I messed it up. that's probably not even all of them. I only posted on one asking a question, but it was about upgrading the firmware (still waiting on a reply on that, lol). so I have no clue which post it was that was finally successful in restoring my phone.

I had the same problem recently. A factory reset solved the problem for me. Just back up any data you might want to keep on the phone before you do it.
Once complete and the device reboots, it should bring you through the device set up procedure again with no problems.
[Solved] Problem solved!
