i bricked my tab tmobile. i was trying to load asia version using odin and selected bootloader update. now the device is black not booting not going to bootloader mode even if i press volume down and power. please please help me.
It will not go into download mode? Unplug it totally and holy down your power and volume down button. See if that will get you into DL mode.
Sorry about you Tab. Do you get anything on screen at all, even the phone ! PC logo ?? If you don't get anything at all then unfortunately you'll need a jtag box or a new motherboard to fix it.
I tried applying [110% SAFE] 3-Button Combo FiX for Selected/ALL Firmwares
It failed and now I had a Phone ! PC logo. I can get a USB JIG but will it still boot to download mode? If it does, what should I flash it with? stock 2.1? stock 2.2? Please help!! Am I still able to get into DOWNLOAD mode with JIG?? THANKS!!!
P/S Flash this fix on my friend's i9000 and it worked. No Idea why didnt worked on mine =(
Any help please????
Your bootloader is fine if you get the PC-phone blinking icon. Best bet is to send your phone for warranty.
What was your original OS before flashing, 2.1 or 2.2?
You should flash the full package of whatever OS you were on by using the jig to get to the donwnload mode then flashing with Odin.
I will try to make a USB JIG and get in to download mode. Will flash stock firmware and see. Thanks! So if there's still Phone ! PC icon, bootloader still intact?
I'd you still have download mode, I have found that holding all three buttons and when galaxy logo comes up releasing all it works?
Open Odin. In PDA add a new kernel ie voodoo. Put phone in download and connect to Odin. Press start and in 20 seconds all should be good. Always works for me. Just a kernel file though. No repartition. auto reboot checked. Good luck

The phone has no 3 button combo, that's why I tried applying the 3 button fix but it brick. So I hope as long as it still shows Phone ! PC logo, it's still able to get into download mode using usb JIG.
Yes, the JIG should put the phone in download mode... its a very useful tool so look after it.
then when your in download mode, i personally would flash 2.1 with all 3 files and PIT. also check the re-partition box in odin. and start again good luck.

Ok. Sorry. Some people think they've got no 3 button combo when in fact they only have no recovery.

Bricked Screen
(A.K.A. phone-!-pc or Black Screen of Death)
For reference, this is what a bricked Samsung Galaxy S looks like. To recover from this problem, you'll need to get into the Download Mode.
Black Screen of Death
A fully bricked phone (as shown on the screenshot) will not boot, or display the charging logo when connected to a USB charger. This presently cannot be recovered from any recovery attempt, it will require the phone to be sent back to Samsung and be serviced.
This screen does not always mean your phone is bricked. If you have a hardware locked vibrant, maybe, however, if your phone is not hardware locked, unplug the USB cable from the phone, Hold down Vol UP+Vol Down+Power, the screen will flash black, continue holding down all 3 buttons, you will see the "phone--!--PC" screen again, continue holding all 3 buttons, the screen will flash black again, release the power button only. This will put you into Download Mode.

Vol up vol down cannot be both held its a rocker switch .

I used the same method for getting 3 button down mode, and my I9000 brick same like yours !!
And I bought JIG cable, but even JIG did not help me, I9000 is totaly DEAD and GONE !!
Do not use this method!!
EDIT : I've fixed it with JIG... Thanks!!!

making (or maybe buy) a JIG is the way to get back to live the phone, even the screen shows nothing.
i had the same problem , while trying to "unlock " the 3 button combo my galaxy s managed to become a brick , so i made the jig and flashed it again with 2.2
i still lack the 3 button combination but whenever i need to get to donwload/recovery mode i use ADB
easier and safer
good luck mate
@danc00: no phone is dead. i know people with a riff box who give this phone life for only 30€.
you only need a jtag / riff box
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7edUXE7jLg
if you want to send it to germany to give it life again give me a message.
first you should search smbdy who has this box in your country
@kako: if the first and the second bootloaders are damaged only a jtag/riff box can help your phone ah or samsung itself i dunno what they use for it
cheers
First of all thanks for not caring. I spend days on Internet trying to find a solution. I have Blade which I bricked thanks to my noob skills with flashing and similiar ****. I just want my normal phone back. Couldn't give a **** bout roms anymore. Sorry for the lang but Im mad. When I boot it up it just sits there on green android logo not going past. I can enter download mode if it matters. As soon as I back it up Im getting rid of cwm mode and bull****. I use my sister phone to transfer files on my sd card. I cant enter my recovery mode since I installed that **** of cwm.When I try the key combo-android logo stuck with red light on. My phone has 90-100% battery Im sure. I need a solution where I can do something from pc with download mode or something that will automatecly start when I boot up my phone that I transfered on my SD card. Please guys let me have some sleep. I've been staying all night long just to unbrick it. Dont mention any flashing rooting ****ing...I developed alergy to those words. I want it simple ..please...any help is appreciated. And sorry for my language.

Calm down dude. If you can get in Download Mode , you are lucky. I even know people who had not get to Download Mode and had began to cry , cause the phones were only 3-4 Weeks old. Back to your problem.]First download here the stock rom.[/URL]
Then you need the Android SDK and the platform-tools from Google , so download it , cause you need ADB. Click here to get Android SDK.Then you need the ZTE drivers. Click here to get the drivers.Now get into download mode and connect the device via USB to your PC. Copy the boot.img (or recovery.img if it is in the ZIP package) and flash it via Fastboot (command: fastboot recovery.img) . Now you got the stock recovery. Now push the FULL update.zip at your sdcard , and now go to recovery , and update from sdcard , choose the update.zip ... Flashing takes a while. DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING BEFORE OR AFTER CHOOSING "UPDATE.ZIP" . Now your Phone should fully works normally
Hello, I have also bricked ZTE BLADE 3(I flashed a wrong kernel....). It only turns the red light on when i turn it on and blank screen, does not respond to vol + and vol - key, no android logo, but when I connect it to the computer via usb in Device Manager a COM port opens with the name ZTE DFU(Diagnostic interface). If anyone has experience of reviving this device from this mess? Thank you for your time

Your download screen is destroyed , but you are still able to get into it.
Try to get into it and flash the kernel with fastboot , the screen will bug during fastboot procedure.
My screen is completely blank and black, just the red light showing when i turn it on and it is always on. It does not respond on power button + vol. down, power button + vol. up, power button + vol. down + vol. up. When I connect it to the computer it does not show me a usb flash drive although I have the zte drivers installed and another sd card inside, but in Device Manager I can see it as a COM port(DFU) Diagnostic Interface. I tried accessing the bootloader via adb but it doesnt even list it with command "adb devices". I also tried flashing the recovery image via "fastboot recovery recovery.img" and "fastboot recovery.img" and still no luck, it just hangs at "waiting for device"...

When the red light still comes up , you still got chances to get it fixed...
I think so too.. but how? The only method left is JTAG... I saw a thread about using a TPT image to flash low level firmware using ZTEflash.exe but that thread was for ZTE Skate I think, I could not find the tpt.img file for zte blade 3.... Is there any other method via usb cable? Or send it to the shop?
Well, here is my situation:
Got a BLADE III Pro
Tried to root it and i played with few tools found on xda and other places (android forums). No luck at all. Tried to flash a CWM and NO LUCK neither. Tried to go back to flash stock CWM (as i was afraid of bricking it), searched for stock cwm and there is my BRICKED phone. When trying to hold volume down and power botton (both for over 20 seconds even) it will show a green android and its stuck there for hours. When trying to go to fast boot mode the same happens (with volume up and power botton).
While trying these two options the PC (Windows 7 64 bit) wont recognize the phone pluged in.
The only way the PC makes a sound is when i hold both volume up and down bottons and power it or plug it in the PC (without the battery even).
I need to know how can i fix it to boot only. PLEASE. Is this a "throw on can" phone now or it can be brought to life? PLEASE TELL ME PEOPLE.
pm me or any info as soon as you guys can.
I will respond to any question you might have.
Thank you in advance.
I have sent my phone to the shop and they said that they would need a jtag box specific for this model or a new motherboard for zte blade 3.... I think this the end for my zte blade 3

Because recovery takes longer to boot thus it will reboot before it enters recovery.

For fix it?
I just open the casing of the device, and bring me to 'motherboard' and all components of the device,
And then I'm force to press the power button myself, with low power,
