or may b any way to buy mother board online??? for m919
coz on ebay i cudnt find any listings for m919 mother board...

Keep looking online for 'donor' phones/2nd hand motherboards, or look for repairers overseas who might be able to replace with a new motherboard. You don't really have any other options if you can't get a new motherboard in your country.

You can't get into download or recovery or anything? I hard bricked an s3 and the led didn't react to being plugged in.

This has nothing to do with a hard brick. You just got unlucky and got a hardware failure.

did you try this

[Q] tab 7 totally bricked by odin plz help

hi guys
i tried to flash a rom using odin but while it was uploading the firmware it got disconected
then it all happened
the screen just got black and the device didnt work at all
i cant log in into recovry mood non the download mood
nothing works
the device is dead
any ideas???
pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez help guys
its not even my device
the guy is all over me plz help asap
wich Rom did you Flash?
more information needed. Was it P6800, GT-P6210 Wifi Only? or verizon model?
you said Tab7, you may be in the wrong forum but thats OK, just describe the device as best as possible.
what is the exact firmware you tried to flash?
Disconnecting during a flash is very bad.
Do you have experience with Odin and flashing in general?
does the device seem to receive any power when plugged in?,
does your computer make any sounds when you connect the USB to it?
mmm lets see its p1000 and the rom was a stock rom ...
i had some experience in odin i flashed my galaxy s plus i9001 a hundred times with odin but this was the 1st time flashing a tab..
anyway the phone is dead no sign of any reaction in charging just blank screen
no sound from the computer when try to connect
nothing

need help wit sgt-p1010, please!!!!!!!

hey guys is will need some help with this device im not kind of a noobie on this kind of things bcs i been working with several phones, like the veteran xperia10, galaxy ace, motoroi2, etc etc. but never with a tablet
here is what it happens a friend ask me if i can upgrade his sgt-p1010 to a newer version, honeycomb or maybe ics, i´ve read a lot of posts regarding this on how to upgrade it trough odin everything was fine until the reboot of the device, bcs by my mistake i flash a rom of the 7.7" tab and this one is a 7" only now the tab is not turning on, odin is not recognizing it, either samsung kies or the pc. buttons are not responding it wont charge and cant enter to download mode.
I REALLY NEED HELP FROM U GUYS, HOPE U CAN HELP ME
ps. srry for my english :laugh:
This kind of thing can result in the inability to boot which can only be repaired by the use of specific hardware, i.e. this could be a "hard brick". Then again, maybe it can be restored to working order by flashing it again (a "soft brick"). So the very first thing you need to know is, can it get to download mode?
Turn it off, if it's switched on, and charge it for a couple of hours,say four hours. Use the original charger connected to mains. It doesn't matter if it shows anything, or nothing on the screen, let it charge. This is to make sure flashing it won't fail because it doesn't hold a charge.
Now connect it to the PC with the original USB cable. Then after making sure it's switched off, switch it on by pressing the On/Off button, while simultaneously the Volume UP switch. Press them both at the same time, and keep them pressed! If you're lucky you'll get the yellow graphic with the download text. A phone symbol, an !, and a PC symbol is fine too. Even if it doesn't show anything, you may be in download mode, so install the right drivers, and hopefully Odin or Heimdall will recognise is, and will allow you to flash the right ROM.
well i already let it charge for all night long and nothing happens after i perfomed the flashing the screen was totally in black but it doesnt shoes anything i mean the tab was turned on, then apparently batterie dies and after that is not charging. already tried with the heimdall thing but it says that device is not connected.
I think that this is going to be a HARD BRICK
so do u thhink there is another way to solve it?????
or it will be necessary the JTAG stuff???? bcs i dont want to try that it seems that is very difficult to me bcs i dont know nothing about hardware jejejeje
You have installed the Heimdall driver? It's called zadig.exe. Then you have to go to download mode and connect the Tab to the PC with the USB cable. Then Heimdall hopefully will detect the Tab.
If there's no way software will revive the Tab, it's hard bricked and will need hardware to get it working again. There's this guy mobiletechvideos.com who will repair any kind of brick. Basically he uses the JTAG on the board of the Tab and a special box to flash the right ROM to the Tab, even when it's dead. Some here have tried the service, and they say he's quite reliable. Another way is to modify your Tab with Adam Outler's Unbrickable Mod. It's brilliant, you can't soft brick your Tab after that, but it involves soldering very small components on the board of the Tab. The mobiletechvideos guy can do it for you I believe.
Well, I guess you just got a hardbrick .
The only way to fix this problem is go to SAMSUNG SERVICE CENTER.

Start calm.
All you need is a cool mind now.
Search for the USB JIGGS available on xda and see if someone from your area has it. You can then take help from that person. If not then just go to service center, tell them that it stuck like this while doing software update and act like you no nothing about rooting our flashing. That will do.

Is is still repairable

Yes, offcouse.
Just let them be unaware of you knowing about root/cwm etc. just act dumb. If they get to know your warranty is already void, they will charge you money for repairing it.
Follow what bruce says..
Tell them u got an update in kies nd this happened
** rooting is new for me,
nd i am a noob to root....**
They said Board is damaged
They are saying board is damaged!
price to repair it is more than its second hand value in market
i took it from their and brought it home
i remember before giving them when i connect usb cable to it unknown device found is detected but now its not even showing that
i am developer guy so not a completely noob
i want to repair it not to replace its body parts

please!
Please anyone!!
or do refer any book!

The last 'n' only hope left is this:-
Install ur phone specific driver on pc.
1. Take out battery, sim & sd card.
2. Open odin.exe on pc.
3. After this, connect the phone via USB cable to PC(yes! without battery,sim & sd card)
4. Press the download mode combo keys.
5. While keep pressing all those keys, insert the battery now.
6. Now, odin should detect ur phone so that u may get it updated with stock firmware.
And if this also doesn't work, then bro u might have lost it at all

I tryed many solution but no one work, please if someone have the some problem tell me.

You broke the boot image. I'm sorry but you hard bricked the device. I had this phone but it was terrible because of its touchscreen. Maybe I could help you. Send me a PM and describe how you really broke the device.

Gal J1 of sadness.... but still hoping
2 days ago a friend asked me to fix his J1 stuck in boot image. I gladly said yes for I've done it 4x already different units same model with satisfying results. This one is the exact opposite because after flashing with Odin and getting the Passed result, the phone didn't reboot. Actually it never booted right after that moment. System didn't recognize the phone not even a dim light or blink or any reaction from it even when plugged in a wall charger. tried all possible solutions even the galaxy tab procedure of total batt drain and so on. The firmware I got is from xda, J100MLDXU0AOB3_OLC0AOB5_v4.4.4_Repair_Firmware.zip, and I'm sure it's fine because I've used it already with good results...
Guys, any of you with a solution on this or any suggestions would be much appreciated... Thanks very much in advance!!! :fingers-crossed:

Can you get into Odin Mode? If yes, flash the stock firmware of your region (here is a fast server which provides very fast downloads: fw.updato.com) If no, then you should change your battery as you're saying "it came from my battery" and try the first step again.
If it doesn't help as expected, then your phone is hard bricked and can't be repaired at all. The only solution would be changing the motherboard, but I would not waste my money on a low-end device motherboard and I would directly buy a new phone. :/

If I am correct...
Then SM-J110H have Spreadtrum SC7727S
Here is Pinout for Direct eMMC...

This Pinout seems also to work with:
Code:
SM-G318HZ
SM-Z130H
I have leaked SM-Z130H PDF... where Instruction is inside to repair with tweezer... USB cable + Spreadtrum Tool:
Code:
[B]ResearchDownload[/B]
In theory something similar should be possible with SM-J110H...
I have at the moment only 1 problem... to create PAC file...
No idea from where I can get:
Code:
FDL1
FDL2

Edit 1.
Sorry, seems I was drunken...
It is sooo hard to find Posts or Threads about SM-J110H...
But it seems SM-J100H also Spreadtrum device...

SM-950F Hard bricked, JTAG?

Hey
So I was flashing android 7.0 to an S8 and it completely died, this is how completely:
- No screen/LED/vibration motor
- No safety/recovery/download mode (and don't ask about button combos, I've tried them all)
- No USB recognition from device manager (not even as exynos in other devices, just nothing)
- USB jig does nothing
- It is however recognised by wireless chargers (but I doubt that has any real significance)
At this point my question is would a JTAG even work on it? Or is my only hope a complete motherboard replacement?
S8 Hard bricked

Jtag dead phone to life and rewrite IMEI
I had the same thing, sent it to Fonefunshop in England, they said they could fix it, the didn't even open it as discovered by the guys who fixed it and is necessary to use jtag.
Fonefunshop said eMMC chip was bad, which is not true, but that led me to search for someone to replace the chip. I found A2Z cellular in Ottawa, Canada. They got the phone to boot up, but IMMEI was null( I did this trying to flash back to stock after TWRP screwed up). They rewrote original IMEI , now phone works like new. These guys are amazing.
http://a2zcellular.com/
Thank you all for the advice.
But I have now managed to unbrick and reflash the firmware. khawarjaved's advice turned out to be what fixed it in the end.
That was close, nearly lost £30

I have been through that situation man.... So always ready to help, ??
Hi pros
I'm in kind of a similar situation....I think I flashed MY 950U PIE with wrong BL
This phone is dead....Doesn't boot...no download mode....No recovery mode....
When connected to pc....device manager Recognises device as QUALCOMM HS USB 9008
Any way to brig it back to life...?
Your phone is connected in edl download mod. It will accept special files which will allow it to boot to download mode and let you flash stock firmware
The tool used for this is emmcdl.exe
It has to come with phone specific files
No idea where to get it. Ask people here, those who root phones. They know.
