Ok so im new here so forgive me for anything noobish.
So i tried to flash a stock ROM back onto my old S4 and somehow managed to pretty much break it. It wont fully boot and will turn off after it gets to the samsung logo. I cant boot into recovery and can only boot into download mode BUT my computer or odin wont recognise it in download mode.
So, yea, its pretty screwed. Any help would be amazing as I would like to take it on holiday with me next week to protect my shiny new G4 from the mess and chaos of a lads holiday.
Thanks guys. :good:

1. Try to install Samsung drivers again or simply Kies 3.
2. Change the USB conector for other or one original.
3. Change the USB port too.
Yep tried all three, think it has something to do with the drivers not being installed correctly when in download mode but not totally sure. Any ideas?

I used to love your ROMs for my old Touch HD.. good to see you now have a Galaxy S!
Not so sure from your posts above what method you have tried. When are you trying to connect Odin? You need to be in Download Mode first, fire up Odin, then connect your phone...
Is this what you are doing?
Also, which version of Odin you using? In Win7 you may need to right click and run as administrator?
The best way is to look on the odin how to here in forum

Brother, use Odin3 v1.7 from my signature & see if it detects? A lot of guys have recovered their phones using 1.7. trust me.
pull the battery
wait a few seconds
put the battery back in
hold vol-down + power + home
You should get into download mode
connect the phone physically to the pc
flash a ROM or a kernel or whatever you desire
I wish you good luck^^
Close any kies process running in background and try again

is there anything i can do to force a start to anything
maybe with a software setup on the sd card?
or a script
most devices have a code wich will hot restart the phone to bootloader
read something about a jig you guys think it will work

The jig most likely wont work if the phone is completely dead, you could try a hairdryer it seems to work sometimes. Otherwise its back to samsung.

I've made a HUGE mistake... I wanted to flash Abysskernel over RocketRom V4 to make a full wipe. But I've done it to fast, without looking good at what I was doing.
I've flashed CYANOGENMOD 9... And flashing has stuck. Now, I can't start my phone. No more recovery, no more download mode !!!
I think I'm screwed.
Is there a little chance to repear it without SAV ?
Thank you.
you flashed CM9 on ICS Rom...
you are screwed... the CM9 instructions clearly state to flash from GB rooted or other safe kernel
Try usb jig

No download mode... Nothing. Full black screen.
Just pull the battery wait for 10 to 15 seconds put it in volume down+home+power button for 10 seconds and again count of 10 just plug in ur usb cable and see wether the phone is detected through odin if yes and then use 16gb pit file with bootloaders and flash any stock gb rom

I hope that musashiro is right.
hi
i have got the same problem.
alexdumitru your problem is not same. the link you shared they mention to solve softbrick devices. but me and zepretender got a hardbrick devices. it means you can not go to download mode. so i think only they solve it with changing mainboard or damaged parts.
is there any other new ways for solve hard brick devices??
That's a hard brick too. The emmc is damaged, though it enters download mode, it's true. But I've seen cases where the device entered download mode, though the screen remained blank. So try to enter download mode, even if the screen is still blank and then connect it to the computer. If Odin recognizes it, you might be lucky.
i´ve sufferd the same problem. i´ve bricked my note - no recovery, no download mode. i tried to go to download mode, but odin didn´t recognized usb connection. My phone was dead. I´ve sent my device to samsung for warranty repair.
Hmm I didn't know that.actually I hv tried everythng but odin didn't recgnse it. I will try your suggest ofcourse.its worth to try. So whle usb cble connected should I try to go to download mode? In some topics they mentioning about use another usb cable.which is dfferent than normal ones. Do u know anythng about it?
Jig usb can open my phone in download mode? Is that works for hardbricked phones? Because Im gonna buy one.

If your phone is "superbricked" hard brick, then a JIG won't work because it damages the eMMc chip. But, you can make your own JIG. You can get stuff at your local electronics store, like Radioshack. I don't know where you live though, haha!
Even if the JIG gets you in download mode though, if Odin fails at factoryfs.img or NAND write start then it will still be bricked.
Hi guys. I did something very stupid and by mistake flashed wrong version of AutoRec on my LGD802. No I am stuck od "fast mode started", what ever I do. Is there any help for that device or I just need to take it to service and pay the bill. Thanks. Very stupid mistake.

(860) Fastboot mode started
(910) udc start
And that comes after everything, fastboot or download mode or white screen. Windows 7 cant recognise it, I installed drivers before connecting G2 but under SM buss controller there is nothing recognized.
I would try to going back to stock but I dont know how and I am afraid that that will be hard without windows recognizing G2. Sry my english is not so great. I am from Croatia. Thanks for very fast response.

I tried few way to go back to stock but nothing works. G2 is recognized like Android phone but like USB Modem Phone ADB so I am stuck. I am not even sure that battery is charging and I could end up with paper weight soon.
I get in download mod for like half of the second and then Fastboot mod started takes over. Two big problems no download mod and G2 in windows 7 64. Hard reset doesn't work neither, Fastboot takes over again. How stupid i was not to look what file is downloading, first is the newest I thought in my stupid head.

Thanks for giving me some hope. I never planned to root that phone until I saw that great Xdabbebs Camera Mod. Rooted with no problems and that screwed it up like a overexcited 10 year old. I still got warn out GS3 for usage, works fine but looks like crap but that G2 screen all black hurts a lot.

Tried installing custom recovery didn't work out like I had hoped now im stuck with a phone that isn't detected by odin or kies but by MiFlash
Please tell me there is something I can do to fix it or get it to some sort of working order..? Is there a jtag tool or usb jig I can use?
Update - I found out the phone was still under warranty so I sent it away to be repaired. It was repaired and I now have a working phone !

What have you done to reach that state? I know that you're desperate but you must give some details if you want help.
It was given to me with 5.1.1 installed however it failed mid process and while on 5.1.1 it kept freezing and acting weird such as boot with weird errors and they only appeared after it was updated, I decided to root it with odin and it never fully rebooted after the was root applied. I finally got it to boot to stock and rooted and decided to install a custom recovery which was twrp while selecting the recovery it said if its a wrong location it will brick, with this in mind I checked the model with the one on their site and it seemed to make sense and applied it.
This caused the original problem which made it boot straight to download mode with it saying it could not normal boot. I then googled the problem and one said the pit was corrupted and downloaded the correct file. I then applied this through odin with stock firmware and it refuse to flash. At the time I was thinking a restart on the device would help, but it resulted in not booting at all and not being detected....
It does not light up or make a vibration when its connected or powered on if there is any solution it would be great...
Can anyone help or point in the right direction?

Can you tell us if you can get on recovery screen, either TRWP or stock, or download mode.
You could try installing these drivers:

Reboot just in case and try to connect your device again.
